Underrail: The Incline Awakens

[Spark Mandriller]

It will certainly be painfully boring for a non-stealth build, but I had a stealth build and still couldn't avoid the respawns. I don't think it's possible. Some robots respawn no matter what, and also the cameras are unavoidable for stealth builds as well. Some important doors are right next to the cameras. I made use of the shafts as well, doesn't matter much.

Spoiler

You can hack the computers to temporarily turn the cameras off. It attracts all the robots to the computer you used, but that can actually help since it means they all move to the one spot for a while instead of patrolling like usual.

I didn't really like Arke though. I like DC precisely because there are barely any other characters, and having an AI constantly shouting at me kinda ruins that.

 

[HeatEXTEND]

Never experienced the original DC but I think it's fine right now. Mushroom forest looks great, the sudden change of scenery had a great wow-factor imo, the ruined "city" gives off a great dusty-buried-days-past-desolation vibe. Good.
When you start finding troves of items it usually means one of two things, shit's about to get trivial or shit's about to get serious, I'm very glad UR adheres to the latter. Good.
The exposition via computers/faceless/six/AI/hermit was very welcome, fun tying it all together. Good.
Again, the vibe of the entire segment just really nailed it on the head imo.
The only peeve I had with the entire thing was the weight of a few quest items, rediculous

Still I can see why Al Fabet is probably angry at Styg. I think that it could be improved if Merchants were a bit less selective, and weapons/armors were cheaper.

True on so many levels. They could probably put in a skill and a feat for that, but those would often be ignored.

You're not the Invictus, the real Invictus is taller.

Not sure what you mean here, I won the Arena, and became the Invictus. The game recognized me as such, I just expected it to be mentioned much more often.

It's a running joke in the game... There's more reactivity than you think, particularly in Core City where everyone watches the arena, but nobody believes you are the Invictus. Even the common folk in Core City throw comments that you look almost like the Invictus. The few who acknowledge your arena accomplishments are hard to find and can be counted with one hand.

Trashos inspired me to continue my playthrough.

Spark Mandriller can use bit of spoiler for first paragraph. I haven't been there.

Hi everyone.

Does anybody know if we can find the gun which is used by the Faceless Commander in DC (the energy "rifle" with burst shots) ? I've killed the guy at the end when he asks for the cube but the gun did not drop on him.

 

[ciox]

Any gun or item you can find and pick up is on the wiki, otherwise it's marked to not drop in the game even if it exists.

I definitely think you should be able to pick that weapon up, and also this armor, even if it takes a lot of balance work: http://www.underrail.com/wiki/index.php?title=Robe_(Stygian_Exorcist)

 

[epeli]

I checked out of curiosity, the Faceless Commander's weapon is named Gattling Laser* (sic). The asterisk denotes meta-items (eg. natural creature armor/simple abilities that are implemented as items) and other stuff that isn't meant to appear to players. Don't ask me why that particular special robe doesn't have an asterisk. Pretty much all other nodrop stuff has it.

So we're not getting his gatling laser. But maybe there are new energy weapons in the expansion...

 

[Morm]

Ok, too bad, thanks for the replies.
I also hope that new energy weapons will be introduced in the expansion.

 

[razvedchiki]

anyone has a link to a custom portait pack some member made?or could anyone sent me a decent decard blade runner portait?

 

[razvedchiki]

Ok, too bad, thanks for the replies.

not in this one,this one will have machetes/spears/shotguns.prob later styg will make some energy rifle or 2.

[razvedchiki]

for a tactical vest with antimaterial plate best is a blast or kevlar cloth?also does the ballistics feat worth it with laminated fabric/plate/kevlar cloth?or its better for lightweight vests?

 

[Fenix]

Well, something like Mark IV grenade is instant death, so maybe blast.
But you will never know.

 

[razvedchiki]

i want to be completely safe from guns (except sniper crits),so i will craft both versions and see whats best.
also are kevlar tabis better than some solid metal boots?dont care about moobility just the pure dmg reduction.

 

[Trashos]

If there are no snipers present, I 'd use kevlar and prioritize the grenadiers. When there are snipers, you have to prioritize them so take blast.

However, I have been trying various defenses (my characters are stealthy and squishy -no metal armor), and the best defense against both grenadiers and gunners (except snipers) are the electric shields.

 

[Mikeal]

Oh you jokers.

 

[Black Angel]

Yeap, heckin' bamboozle.

Anyway, I'm starting to play the game again and only now I'm realizing new stuff like that medical locker in the medical floor of SGS, placed where Newton is. I remembered there's no such thing before, and only now I realize it's there. Also, a crate container near GMS Compound. I KNEW it wasn't there before, so it kinda stuck like a sore thumb in my screen, and when I pick its lock.... damn, expensive stuff just 30 minutes into a new game! I'm excited to see more now.

Also, Styg, you should listen to Infinitron and release Underrail: ExpEdition as a standalone and also as an upgrade to the base game for those who already have it, instead of releasing it as a DLC for the base game.

 

[Nekot-The-Brave]

I'm really looking forward to this expansion.

 

[Tigranes]

I'm looking forward to learning when I can start looking forward to its release date

 

[toro]

I'm looking forward to learning when I can start looking forward to its release date

According to Styg : less than two years

 

[Fenix]

Playing with my Bruce, had some hard time against Lurkers lol.
Unarmed is yummy.

 

[Trashos]

Yes, I want to try a DEX unarmed build (maybe psi-supported), but I am on Hard difficulty now and melee looks scary. Gonna try it at some point anyway, not sure I am going to finish it though.

 

[Fenix]

I'm on Domination....

 

[Trashos]

Too early for Domination for me. Gonna get there eventually, just entered Hard.

 

[Fenix]

Well yeah, play on Domination only after you have beaten Hard to death.
It somehow limits you builds variability and viability, but worth to play.

Some battles with human enemies are particulary deadly because of additional enemies...
Like that Lurker camp near Black Crawler lair...
