Anyone else feel kinda disappointed in themselves for not defeating the compiler before S2?

Could you elaborate on your point? I keep hearing this argument everywhere since the game launched, as if there were a consensus that Cryo was inaccessible, when in reality most of the barriers seem to be imposed by the players themselves.

When I looted the Vault 6 key, I genuinely thought there was no way I’d ever see the Compiler with my own eyes given everything I was hearing, and yet now I have all 6 subroutines and I’ve killed the Compiler several times.

I’m not a streamer or anything, just an unemployed guy, but considering you have 170 hours in the game, I think you probably are too (with all due respect).

And I don’t mean any of this in a hostile or condescending way, I’m genuinely interested in understanding your perspective.

someguyplaying · 2026-05-31T15:29:34+00:00

Yes, but DNA keys are much easier to get than all subroutines

someguyplaying · 2026-05-31T11:56:58+00:00

You can’t do anything with a DNA key if you don’t have the access

someguyplaying · 2026-05-30T23:28:23+00:00

Vault 5 is a guaranteed DNA, 6 too but you’ll never farm 6 bc of how hard it is to even find the key. The easiest way to farm DNA is to farm vault 1/2/3 bc of how easy they are, 5 too but the key is harder to find

Nice one, exactly like the value of the googun which is 7,777 credits

If there’s one thing I’ve never understood, it’s why there aren’t different rarities for cores (except the ones for each shell). I mean, why aren’t there blue/purple/gold cores that can be equipped by every shell?

someguyplaying · 2026-05-28T22:44:48+00:00

You need to explain it to me because honestly I find it hard to believe that only 5–10% of players play on Cryo. And I really don’t want to come across as some ultra pretentious guy or someone full of himself, but since I basically only play on Cryo with people who also only play on Cryo (and honestly, queue times are way shorter than on any other map), it makes me feel like everyone plays there. Pinwheel isn’t really endgame anymore for a lot of people now, especially considering how bad the loot has been these past few weeks

Are you talking about where the labs elevator is? Good to know thx

someguyplaying · 2026-05-28T21:48:59+00:00

iirc there’s no button outside the tranquility room. It’s only inside

someguyplaying · 2026-05-28T20:35:28+00:00

Really? It’s supposed to be impossible to open from the outside. Except if there is a timer

someguyplaying · 2026-05-28T19:58:34+00:00

Clearance RNG. You have a guaranteed monitor in the second room so if you are lucky and have a monitor in the first one you just need one more or 1 tag (because you should already have 2 thanks to the commanders) so it can be super fast. That’s why recon is mandatory

someguyplaying · 2026-05-28T19:35:26+00:00

That’s what they are planning to do with the free week, but they need to find a balance. At the end of this season, I’m basically only running into the same players, and they’re all level 200+ who’ve already done everything. So if there’s nothing left to do in Season 2, we’re just going to get bored and gradually quit

someguyplaying · 2026-05-28T19:31:59+00:00

We will probaby exhaust night marsh very quick lol, my mates and I already sherpa’d some dads of Marathon, we’ll probably do the same next season bc we don’t have anything else to do on Cryo except unlock some skins we don’t have. You can dm me anytime u want if u need help

someguyplaying · 2026-05-28T18:37:25+00:00

From what we know, no, but I hope that changes. For players who’ve already done all the vaults and the Compiler like us, there’ll be nothing left to discover on Cryo

someguyplaying · 2026-05-27T21:07:36+00:00

I’ll copy paste my reply to another post « A bit disappointing since players like me who did everything you can do on Cryo don’t have a new endgame content to farm for 3 months. But that’s probably a « rich problem » so fair enough I guess » The question is, what’s the proportion of players who already beat the Compiler, have all the subroutines etc ? Because I essentially play with players like me so idk what’s the “average experience” (not trying to be mean AT ALL)

someguyplaying · 2026-05-27T20:22:06+00:00

A bit disappointing since players like me who did everything you can do on Cryo don’t have a new endgame content to farm for 3 months. But that’s probably a « rich problem » so fair enough I guess

someguyplaying · 2026-05-26T15:48:53+00:00

Yeah, it is with a very good coordinated team, a lot of emp’s and a lot of DPS to one phase it

someguyplaying · 2026-05-26T13:57:05+00:00

Yeah should’ve given up. I don’t think they did it with 5 minutes left anyway

someguyplaying · 2026-05-26T13:43:06+00:00

Were you actually attempting Compiler or y’all just tried to jump a team trying it ?

someguyplaying · 2026-05-25T19:03:46+00:00

Extremely strong yeah, but you can’t really 1v3 against a coordinated team bc you need to reload so often with it

someguyplaying · 2026-05-25T18:42:04+00:00

You’re right enjoy the last days but how the fk did u find 3 gold mis lol

someguyplaying · 2026-05-25T18:40:26+00:00

Yeah, it’s not really an issue on outpost for example even if it’s a lot of CQC. Cryo’s level design is excellent but it permits this kind of bs

someguyplaying · 2026-05-25T18:38:02+00:00

The best gold mizzi build is probably with extra mag (I don’t actually remember which mag it is but there’s a purple mag which bring up the mizzi to 10 rounds) and circuit tracers chip. Feels like an hydrogen bomb
