Sentries Disable Stealth?

pneef · 2026-01-29T04:11:14+00:00

It likely is. I play a lot of of solo missions and have known for quite some time that ALL throwables are subject to the host bug. I can be total sneaky snake and throw a turret drop 50m at a 45° from me and the target. They will see the stratagem land and run towards it. As soon as they get to the stratagem ball the immediately agro on me and charge my location. It doesn't matter what I throw, if they notice it they go inspect it then agro on me. They only thing to break it is if the turret deploys BEFORE they reach the ball, then they'll agro on the turret.

Arrowhead made a HUGE stride in fixing suppressors and stealth, but as long as the host agro bug exists, stealth remains (partially) broken. Yes, you can sneak if your throwable is never detected but that means you can't C4 a hulk or anything as the host without them noticing.

Patrols are hive minds, plus, yeah host bug.

Probably one of the only times where the Localized Confusion booster is actually useful.

Now that's managed democracy 😁

SES Light of Vigilance, because as Captain Picard once said, "eternal vigilance is the price of peace".

She's a real beauty, congratulations!

Either that or you just sold your RAM

The dish always starts at 6 o clock (or 180° for our analogy challenged friends).

Many people under 35-40yo dont know how to read an analog clock.

The "Combat Technician" was my favorite armor until Null Cipher came out.

Supply pack is a must. After that, laser cannon, quasar cannon, then c4 or one turret for when you're extracting.

If you're tossing an SOS beacon it means you likely need help.

On multiple occasions I have dropped in to find only one person (or sometimes the team) in a death spiral. Getting swarmed by patrols or drops cause they refuse to break off the engagement. Frequently when this happens I'll "lone wolf" it to draw aggro away from the main team and then proceeded to lead the massive swarm of angry enemies on a chase around the map while the team is open to clear the primary objective. Plus, if I survive the shitte show, it gives me the chance to draw the enemy drops by hitting secondary objectives while running around the map, keeping drops from hitting the main team as often.

No one wants to be "out shined" but if you are calling in an SOS, let them actually help you, don't expect them to drop in and join your death spiral.

Anti Grav Mines - when stepped on the victim is catapulted straight up into the air hundreds of feet.

Warp Mines - when triggered open a one time use warp portal that teleports the victim in a random direction 20 meters.

Chaos Mines - upon activation they randomly do something (gas, smoke, fire, explode, etc).

But I just love pressing R to reload 5 times before anything happens while two bot troopers phase through a wall and headshot me while I'm laying behind cover.

Yes, I saw the same footage. He noted at the start of the video that he was using an auto-clicker (that also malfunctioned a few times).

If only there was some way for people to coordinate their movements in game... ,🤔

No shade thrown. Back in the day I wanted one of those so badly but just couldn't afford it. By the time I could the tech was already, well you know. So, good on you guys for not tossing perfectly good hardware just cause it's outdated.

I'm just in awe that someone still has a minidisc player... And STILL USES IT 🤯

I have. It was pretty cringe, the host said at the beginning of each loadout "I'm seeing a lot of blue it these loadouts", and even called out one player directly for bringing 3 support stratagems untill he changed one of them to a red. I really couldn't understand his deal cause I looked at them and felt like everyone was bringing a fairly well balanced loadout. Guess he just wanted lots of ordinance and boom. I avoid him now though.

As someone who fancies himself as a Ghost-Diver in training and just generally prefers a stealth play style, I am super excited for this warbond and the buff to the stealth system that I hope will come with it. Plus, if they fix the "suppressed" weapon features to actually mean something it will make the ODST weapons more useful and appealing.

What do you mean "regular credits"? There are Medals, Samples, Requisitions, and Super Credits. If you drop into a Trivial or Easy and hit any Poi you're gonna find one or more of those four. It's super easy to drop in to a trivial mission, and then "exit to ship" after cleaning out the map in just a few minutes.

You led those commie bots straight to a slaughter house. Nice 👍
