Underrail: The Incline Awakens

[Florian Gheorghe]

Styg; For a map that practically has nothing going on in it, this place causes serious performance issues on me:

Anybody else had this?

Very strange: i was recently in this location and no performance issues spotted. My laptopt is not fastest indeed - Thinkpad T60p

Fine by me as well. Also on a laptop but with I7 and 16 GB of ram. BTW when are we gonna get a review?

 

[ghostdog]

^ Mine is an i5-4690k/GTX970/8GB RAM, so is it's probably an engine glitch.

 

[Jack Dandy]

So, uh...

Spoiler

What exactly WAS The Hollowed Earth incident?

 

[marux]

Yep, it's in the building with all the folks in stasis. You need high hacking skills to operate the console there, or alternatively search the residential area carefully for the keycard.

Spoiler

It's in the arab guy's room, in the safe

Ohhhhhh, you have to turn off the lifesupport before it let's you access it, thanks man.
also thank you for motivating me to finally finish the game with this post. tchort is going to get it tonight.

Well! 103 hours, and the big ugly is dead! Game is complete, and a grand time was had by all.

Is turning off alarms possible?

I triggered the alarm in Epione Lab by accident so all of my character's Protectorate buddies are on alert and it won't shut the hell up.

nope you can't, they should usually stop after some time.
it's annoying as fuck, but kind of makes sense...i can't remember ever seeing an alarm-off button in real life :D


Also just killed tchort. Many parts of DC were pretty annoying but i wouldn't complain too much about the design as some codexers have. I tried to avoid doing things by trial and error in DC, since you would have to run through shit-tons of respawning enemies multiple times. So the only thing i would want is to get proper directions in DC. How the fuck am i supposed to know which mutagen tank is A and which B, since there are like 5 maps with giant containers....

Nevertheless it feels pretty damn good to do (most parts) of DC by myself and finally see this:

Spoiler

it's dead now. IT'S DEAD!!

Sod it, I guess they'll just be listening to an alarm for eternity. :D

Not mighty Tchort Look at it, it's beautiful. Just crying out for an alternate ending.

Since I started over I set myself the task of exploring everything, as far as I could, before the earthquake debris got cleared out. It's amazing how far you can get. For a few minutes I thought I was going to find a way to reach Rail Crossing, but no.

Funny enough, there is actually an area that is open which I think is unintentional. There are very strong enemies and (on several occasions) high-quality components available there.

What area are you thinking of?

The most interesting thing I found was what appeared to be a small scouting group of Ironheads. I mean, I had noticed them before, but I never considered how close they are to the station. Very close.

Styg said to keep these secrets to myself, else he would take them away.

In the under-tunnels right outside SGS, NE section I believe.

true, i really felt at home at the university
...but then six comes along and tells you there is no other option.

Spoiler

then again he and tanner are some mad aliens/gods, so i guess he should know what is best.

at the end the game perfectly sets up for underrail2, i just hope styg will have enough cash and love to make it.

Wait did Styg insert homage to Fallout 4 in his game?

 

[Gaff]

This game is a massive cunt.

No one played F4 here, dont know what you are talking about.

.. so you played it?

 

[veevoir]

Sure I did. I like decent shooters.

 

[Blaine]

Then why did you play Fallout 4?

 

[ghostdog]

Sure I did. I like decent shooters.

Prepare for ejection:

 

[veevoir]

Then why did you play Fallout 4?

Cause.. it is a decent shooter. Hate it what you want for not being RPG, they actually made shooting decent.

Also it's free.

 

[cherry blossom]

Speaking of dropping items, there should definitely be a trash can function in this game, primarily because I worry that leaving random rags, psi beetle shells, mine casings, etc. scattered around the world will not only bloat save file size but also potentially lead to corrupted saves.

Actually, if you drop stuff in "Junkpiles" they do vanish after a while. I learned this the hard way when I tried using one as a stash while hauling Balor's hammer. (Was the one above Foundry train if it matters).

Styg I'd like to bring this up as I believe certain junkpiles and other containers in some maps are bugged. Their contents consistently and completely reset as soon as you transition to another area and back. The first time this happened to a load of items I stashed in some container, I thought I must have accidentally sold them all upon failing to find them back. Now I know, after having observed it. Want to track these down?

 

[Blaine]

I've always assumed that certain types of containers reset their contents after being checked in order to keep the game's save file sizes down to a dull roar, and that this is also why some (empty) containers reset their states... either way, don't put stuff you want to keep in junk piles and barrels.

 

[Commissar Draco]

You got Your Room and then Manor for that; but what Commissar wishes for the sequel based in more civilized north is armored train like this:

I want to be A Dragon Kim!

 

[Nines]

I had a feeling I heard the similar track from somewhere before..

[MediantSamuel]

Turns out that leaving that alarm on at Epione Lab was a bad idea:

Spoiler

the cry-wolf effect clearly took hold and the Free Drones wiped out the Protectorate defenders. Oops.

Oh well, time for more war crimes.

Also, congrats on whoever wrote Dess as being completely unsufferable. A+ job.
