Honestly, I think the captain is one of the best, most balanced characters in the game. He has the most versatility in the game with his primary(except for mul-t), a decent crowd control option, an insanely powerful "utility", and the supply beacons are just crazy. The reason he isnt overpowered is because of how dependent on items he is. He has one of the slowest primaries in the game, a pretty meh secondary, and ALL of his mobility comes from items.

Great video and advice! I just wanted to add a few comments. 1. Additional stacks of the defensive microbots can be obtained by killing your doppelganger from artifact of vengeance, this is how you unlock the item for your logbook 2. The Visions of Heresy lunar item gives him 12 orbital probe shots, similar to the huntress ballista glitch (Fixed in 1.0 ) 3. For some reason the new equipment Gorag’s Opus does not work at all with the Captain (Fixed in 1.0 ) 4. The hacking beacon only works on interactables that cost gold, so you can't hack lunar pods and 3d printers Edit: 5. Only the first shot from orbital probe does 1500% damage, the second two do only 500% damage each (Fixed in 1.0, now does 1000% on all three attacks )
@Jmonsky4 жыл бұрын

I was leaning towards an alternative to the beacon system where instead of getting two beacon summons you could carry one as a backpack (with some tweaking to them) and it could be unlocked via beating void fields with him (as it currently is no beacons or orbital strikes). Then if you don’t have the backpack equipped and instead have the two drops equipped, then for void fields it auto swaps to that and will reequip the drop beacons afterwards

The Captain is the only character you can hold the charge in for an infinite amount of time. You can't hold the mouse down and eventually have it fire. And with the captain, the way to do the most damage is to repeatedly hit your mouse button, which can cause damage when you get to certain attack speed levels. Have it charge up and then fire, or make it so you can adjust it, idk but as it is the optimal gameplay is not good for either the mouse or the player.

Trick will not work if you place your last M2 beacon, so don't expend it. I'm sure I don't have to explain to the synergy between equipment beacon, kill dolls spawning bandolier, squids, and firecracker.

I love the captain for his primary alone, a shotgun that does big damage, what's not to love? I saw the complaint on the Reddit post from your last video about spam clicking but that personally is not an issue for me. The orbital probe is also great. With that out of the way, the rest of his kit is lackluster. You basically forget his M2 and beacons exist late game (I haven't been able to unlock the hacking probe cause rng fucks me, but while it's powerful it's still not very interesting game-play wise edit: I've unlocked it now but haven't used it in a run). Although you could argue this is a "problem" most survivors have in general since items eventually take over for pretty much everything. I was hoping we'd be getting a survivor with actual substantial support abilities, while many (me included) mainly play solo it'd certainly encourage co-op play more if a character could benefit more from having other players around. His beacons don't really scale at all, I'm not sure which stat to attach it to but it'd be nice if they got a range increase from something at least. If you are playing co-op, an engineer turret with fungus is just an infinity better healing beacon because it does scale *and* isn't once or twice per stage. Shock beacon can lockdown an area pretty well but that area is too small. Resupply beacon I'd personally never use because it's not that important to have a limited refill for my equipment item most of the time. and again I haven't been able to use his hack beacon but it sounds useful yet boring.

Really agree with ur views. While the hacking beacon can make legendary chest free, it takes a minute or two to unlock it becuz its much more expensive. Pass the first loop u start to earn a lot more money up to the point u can unlock any chest anytime u look at it. And really, shock beacons and heal becons doesnt scale well into the late game and since its only one charge and small aoe, even random team mates in multi player rooms wouldn't bother making use of them, so im left with hacking and resupply beacon that mostly benefits myself only The value beacons offer gets lower the longer the run goes... Really the only defining strength of captain is his shotgun One can easily think captain is op because of the damage he pumps out with the shotgun, then proceeds to overlook the fact the rest of his kit is actually just somewhat on par with or weaker than other survivors in the grand scheme of things. This makes captain balanced

it should be noted, as i had this tested during one of my runs, that the orbital strike is based off of the number of your attacks of your basic attack, minimum being 3, BUT this can be changed and can scale by 'Visions of Heresy', a lunar item that replaces your basic attack with stacks of rechargeable projectiles with the starting stack being 12, so as long as its recharged to max stacks the orbital strike can fire literally 12 shots of orbital strikes because of visions, this also means it scales, a second visions will grant you 24 shots and so on, pretty niche compared to most builds but honestly purely fun

Giving Commando limited ammo because he shoots bullets - and we need to explain why he has infinite bullets? Or how about Engineer needing an excuse to use his turrets, because where do _those_ come from, hm? It’s a totally ridiculous decision that needs to be scrapped. Realism be damned, nobody gives a shit about “where they come from”, we want to have fun in a video game, not lose half our fucking kit because “DuRr iTs NoT rEaLiStiC cUZ hEs NOt iN ConTaCT wiTH His ShiP”... ridiculous.

What is the reward to not being able to use an ability? That mechanic simply reduces fun and makes people be hesitant to visit secret stages as captain due to the extreme handicap it raises to him.

Aiden, I agree. Although the reason for why he can't access it through other dimensions is pretty lame, it makes sense. Like, we are on a planet that is defying any and all of our logic. But where is the ship? IN SPACE! The ship is limited by the laws of our universe, but the Captain is on the logic destroying planet. The ship may just experience an hour or two, but on the planet can time move differently for even those who is on it. I think that the lore have explained a lot of things that we can use to explain the planet and it's laws of chaos.

I was extremely underwhelmed by the Captain at first... and then I unlocked the free item pod and picked up a few tri-tip daggers. The captain scales very very well into the late game with a proc game capable of competing with Mul-T. Also if anyone is having trouble landing the orbital cannon shots, just fire it at your feet while running away and all the enemies following you will get annihilated by it. Really good for dealing with Lesser Imps, Crabs etc etc

I love the Captain, and I didn't expect to. I usually don't love spam-click characters that I can't just hold down the button to spray and pray but they did a really good job with this one. He's quickly becoming my new main. Also while he greatly prefers gettin Abyssal Depths because of his hacking beacon getting Siren's Call isn't even that bad since with his ridiculous base DPS and ability to completely negate the ground pound ability of the Alloy you can very quickly kill it even with mediocre items.

Some of the things I love about this guy are: 1.) His shotgun can pretty consistently one-shot elite wisps on stage 1 2.) He has a 100-0 true combo against golems on stage 1 (taser, triple airstrike, and sometimes a shotgun blast or two) 3.) Free Legendary Chests, baby 4.) IMO best primary skill in the game 5.) His passive is nuts, as is the stun duration on his taser

Not sure if this has been noted anywhere yet, but I did this with a friend and it worked. Using artifacts of sacrifice and vengeance, and then not grabbing any items until 10 minutes, you can kill your own clones and they will drop the microbots. It's possible for them to drop it later on, but if you have any other item, the chance is instantly reduced to the normal 1%. I did this with a friend at the start of a run giving him microbots as well and it's a very fun way to start, although it does corner you into having these 2 artifacts and not having command

I am loving captain. My fave survivor by far. However, there are a few items i think are absolute god tier on him with his shotgun primary. The new way bleed stacks, tri-tip dagger and the new shatterspleen boss item are absolutely amazing on captain, as well as the shattering justice. One shot from his primary and it shreds their armor. Shattering justice is my favorite item to get on captain. It’s absolutely amazing on him.

His utility is incredibly hard to hit without stunning or slowing. his special scales terribly, and his 2ndary isn't exactly great, due to effectively being single target "stun" that can be canceled, only really being useful for beetle guards and elder lemurians to make sure they get hit by utility, and his primary starts out with a fairly slow attack speed, which, while being able to 1 shot small things and most lesser wisp elites(provided there's a wall), can be a hindrance when being swarmed. Despite this, it is one of the better primary attacks, to carry the fact that he not only loses his utility and special on certain stages, but his 2ndary is fairly garbage. Being good on the early stages doesn't necessarily make someone broken. Also, no mobility on him in general, he needs to kill things before they can kill him until he gets items.
