Underrail: The Incline Awakens

[Fenix]

So the individual pellets themselves are capped at 95% THC, and the tooltip is capped at <80% due to taking into account the random pellet spread?

Well, I guess no - they capped at 80% and that's how it goes.

So I just did the catch the med thief for Doc Aliza (sounds like Alice and her sprite also looks like her ). With only 3 PER (2 because wearing metal helmet) and zero stealth, my option was either waiting for the thief to enter the storage room or put down a bear trap. Since a simple bear trap requires zero traps, I tried putting one. Unfortunately, either he detected it or my placing was off, so I was forced to rush into the room. *Unfortunately*, I failed to dodge my own trap, but managed to detect the thief while in action, then confront him. All the while being caught by own trap.

And then my char dragged himself out into the room complete with the bear trap

Preventing the kidnapping is really downright cool.

Is there any method other than pickpocketing? Noticed NPCs disarm gas grenades now.

 

[Agesilaus]

Should I wait for the next massive content patch/DLC, or dive in again right now? I previously finished the game as a plasma pistol guy with high int and craftings, with the Expeditions DLC (which I partially completed) but before the content patch that added new missions in core city.

Otherwise I'll just give Pathmaker Kingfinder or whatever it is a second/third chance, I never really liked it but people keep saying it's good so maybe it just needs to click.

 

[Fenix]

Next will be far into the future, dunno, maybe there will be some additions to base game like Core City fractins but when... If not in near future then probably you don; tneed to wait.

Kingmaker is kind of the opposite of Underrail, combat/difficulty is largerly braindead (although it's systems are fine), but dialogues and C&C are pretty good, so pick your poison.

Haven't tried PF:K, but UR dialogues are excellent and C&C is pretty good (although might still leave much to be desired for some people), especially in Expedition.

UR has C&C but it's secondary. Mostly you have multiple ways to solve stuff in a good way, and the "&C" is missing out on content because of a bad solution.

Basically the choices boil down to: Scarppers vs eels, FD vs Protectorate, 1 out of 3 Oligarchs. Being a dick to the Faceless really has no upside.

Although I have yet to see what the DLC has to offer.

Endless waves of Natives.

Not if you kill the leaders on arrival .

True. Underrail's C&C is limited and random.

It's practically... on rails!.

Expedition in the nutshell:

Starting the Expedition:


Reaching Horticulture Locust Centre:

 

[Agesilaus]

urgh the locusts. so many locusts. I don't need to watch those videos to relive the horror.

 

[Jezal_k23]

Has there been no balance patch or something to make Expedition more bearable?

 

[Sjukob]

Has there been no balance patch or something to make Expedition more bearable?

You can make one yourself with a simple trick.

 

[Black Angel]

Does Cheap Shots melee critical damage bonus applies when spear throw critically hit?

 

[Fenix]

It does as Spear Throw counts as melee attack.

 

[Latelistener]

I've been absent from the thread for some time and too lazy to read everything.

I assume Expedition is a success, at least in terms of quality. Does it at least helps to explain the story in the original campaigns?

And the second and the most important question. Did someone finally make a mod that restores the original font?

 

[Wunderbar]

I assume Expedition is a success, at least in terms of quality.

it's ok. New weapons, psionics and feats are neat, but the actual expedition campaign is way worse than the base game.

Does it at least helps to explain the story in the original campaigns?

it creates more questions that it answers.

 

[Ivan]

fuck locusts, that is all

I love the dungeon delving (exploring lower passages on your own, stumbling into shit), hate the fetch quests (Foundry being most egregious)

No.

 

[Black Angel]

Not really. The Black Sea is just Deep Caverns 2.0, but with botched encounter designs, more obnoxious enemies, and no respite like the hatch in Hollow Earth. The rest of the stuff is cool, but the aforementioned bad might likely turn you off.

Does it at least helps to explain the story in the original campaigns?

Only if you actually cared about the story in the first place, and if you've actively involved yourself with the ((((((Secret Society))))))™ of Underrail regarding the supernatural elements of the setting. You'll get answers in relation to that, but when it comes to the history of Underrail itself you'll be leaving the Black Sea with more questions which prompt you to ask Styg, "When will we visit North Underrail?"

 

[Abu Antar]

I'm in the middle of fighting locusts as I type. In the middle of all that, I met Ingvar. He's probably been fighting locusts for a long time, too. I don't want to become another Ingvar. Everything's a blur. Locusts and hives everywhere.

 

[Fenix]

fuck locusts

It's not locusts, it's sameness of crabs-statues-locusts, tactical sameness.
On their own locusts are OK.
