the most fun ive had was an uncapped lobby mod with difficulty tweaked towards more enemy types and bigger spawns and slightly boosted attack and defense on account of having way more players im already so sick of damage sponge enemies that this game has in droves, they add a damage sponge difficulty on top of it lmao you just cant have fun because a lot of weapons have super shit ammo efficiency and ammo scarcity is just a boring way to "balance" the game. a shooting game where you cant shoot, sounds real fun. this wasnt an issue in l4d. you could run out of ammo, but the ammo supplies were spread along the levels that were linear, and the resupplies themselves were effectively infinite. a situation where there is literally no ammo left in the game could not occur and you got to shoot to your hearts content when near a resupply.

@@genericgoosereturns Very few enemies in this game are actually very spongy at all. Ammo also isn't really that scarce. On vanilla, you almost always have way more than enough nitra to deal with anything the game throws at you so long as you complete a mission in a reasonable amount of time and you aren't using blatantly stupid builds. It's not like Helldivers 2 where, despite ammo being extremely abundant, you're hardly ever incentivized to do much other than kite enemies around and avoid combat as much as possible, and don't even get me started on how god-awful HD2's balance is; it makes DRG look as balanced as Chess in comparison.

As a casual that is jumping from haz 5 to 6x2 from time to time haz5+ feels easier than 6x2 in majority of missions. The spawn rates of high priority targets and big targets of haz6 is still more, and they are the main pain tbh. Like, it doesn't matter if 50 or 60 grunts are running at me if I can kill them with 1 breach cutter blast regardless. But for example if there is more purple spiders that are coming at me from different angles the difficulty increase is more noticeable. But in missions where close combat is almost inevitable indeed haz5+ is harder. In 6x2 you can afford to dash through a wave of bugs to reposition, take cheap damage etc. In 5+ you literally have to play for no hit challenge cuz the second 1 or 2 bugs hits you you are essentially dead. Like Waste said it is not very fun, and I agree
@pvewaste2 ай бұрын
I do think 6x2 is actually significantly harder tbh, it's just that h5a has these really strange swingy peaks where you just die because you fail to dodge a ranged attack, whereas 6x2 has comparatively much more consistent (and much more consistently harder) difficulty. If you're good enough, you won't die in 6x2, but h5a will still just sometimes randomly kill you.

while I disagree with you on some things regarding build restriction, pretty much my thoughts exactly on the more lethal changes. Last night I played a haz5 2-0-2-2 and it was alright, but more of a pain. No one really had damage. Naturally, players over time will figure out effective ways to combat such difficulty, but I'm also curious about whether or not those additions adequately show up in the server search. Two people in the lobby had no idea I even activated 3 of the 4 modifiers. I know it shows next to the mission difficulty, with icons and the I or II. But I feel people are too conditioned not to see.. who knows, maybe it's just a player and time thing. That said, after that mission, I played around with haz 2-2-2-0, and that seemed more fun to me, than 2-0-2-2. I do agree that 2-2-2-2 would just be unfun. It's why spreadsheets and theory just fail. You just increase number and that means more difficult/fun right? Nope. I'm curious if I can play around with 2-1-2-1 or even a 2-1-2-2, but that'll be for another day. Not a fan of the naming schemes mostly though. Talking about haz5a, makes me thinks there's a tougher (or easier?) haz5b.. is there a haz5s tier? Who knows! I do enjoy the 2-2-2-2 scheme, reflects weapon builds. 32132

I came to the same conclusions about haz5+max but by playing it a bunch instead. I noticed the most effective strategies were to move together and always bunker right before a swarm, and that player vulnerability is by far the most difficult and unfun of the 4 modifiers, and removing it or even ticking it down to 1 instead of 2 DRASTICALLY changes the overall difficulty of the whole mission top to bottom start to finish. DRG has good balance in that when you get hit by something, it's meant to be a reminder you need to pay attention to something that you weren't focusing on. Could be a septic spreader's mortar wad, could be a spitballer in the dark across the cavern, could be a swarmer that crept up behind you, etc etc. All of these things are still designed in a way where the first hit is meant to be a reminder that springs you into a specific response. Even if you're at low health and that hit actually downs you, technically you're STILL being reminded to pay attention to something that you weren't (your health), so even then it does its job ...but with player vulnerability haz5+ mod, that reminder is no longer a reminder, but instead a blunt penalty for not *predicting* the incoming damage and flawlessly evading it. Punishing a player for not being able to predict that a specific enemy in a specific spot on a huge map of randomly spawning enemies was going to attack them right at a specific moment is VERY unfun, but were the hit to just dink you to keep you on your toes or jumpstart your situational awareness like it normally does, then all it really does is forcibly boost your engagement with your surroundings. This, I'm confident, is exactly why it works so well the way it is on haz 5 and below; it's enjoyable to get hit by something that surprises you and forces you to adjust strategy on the fly, but it's so extremely frustrating and unenjoyable to be downed by that same something you simply neglected to clairvoyantly anticipate.

as a haz 5 pub player, 100% agree. absolutely love the more bugs modifier, and would even like to see more tiers for it. as a certified driller main, massive swarms of grunts are infinitely satisfying to burn, freeze & melt in acid lol. also a fan of the aggressive enemies, is a good stepup in difficulty when it comes to kiting and what not bc in haz 5 as you said you can literally just jump through waves and they barely touch you if you're doing it right. however. dwarf vulnerability is the bane of my existance and just makes the game frustrating, and i was unsure abt the tankier enemies modifier but was leaning towards not liking it. but when you described it as "reducing build variety" yeah that solidifies it as really not good lol. like i love in DRG how there aren't really "bad" builds, like basically all weapons & OCs work as long as you're not contradicting your upgrades and what not. it's just that at higher hazards like 6+, it becomes clear that certains builds are definitely better and others just can't compete. and the tankier enemies just fully goes against that, a lot of things are just so hard to use there cannot wait to get my hands on the driller & gunner OCs, they look so damn fun. oh and yeah, love this video style. very interesting to hear your expanded thoughts and reasons on things
@pangake2 ай бұрын
i didn't expect it to be a replacement for modded difficulties, i enjoy that they have modifiers rather than forcing any one particular difficulty standard. that being said i think a good way forward would be to add more modifiers (more waves, more elite spawns, harsher player scaling) that can increase or add to haz 5 stats to meet player expectations. i dont like the idea of 5A being the definitive experience and believe we have modifiers to let us decide what is the most fun, so i hope players choose what they want most and dont brute force the fun out of 5+ by running exclusively 5A.
@Rayalot722 ай бұрын
I don't find the unfun difficulty options too bad since you can just not put them on. More Enemies and Aggressive Enemies both feel really good on II, and tough I gives a big stat bump to larger targets w/out touching common scaling. Skipping one or both levels of player vuln and only taking one level of toughness makes for a very enjoyable experience that wasn't otherwise available in vanilla.

Completely agree on the haz 5 modifiers. I love more enemies, and aggressive enemies is nice too when I'm up for a challenge. I most likely will never again click enemy health and player vulnerability. One funny quirk of the system is that I always put 0 or 2 for the levels, I just don't really see the use case for only one level of modifier. If you are at haz5 looking for more challenge, you are totally ready for just going +2 on your favorite modifier.

I think Haz 5 2222 should be "Haz 5 Max" personally. They really should've made swarm delay a modifier instead of player vulnerability. Also just feel like pointing out: Cluster bomblets do something around 40 on direct hits. So the per-shot damage is almost identical to Salvo's (though getting perfect hits is harder), with like 4x the effective ammo (~40 salvos vs ~160 cluster rockets), probably 3x the effective DPS, and actual effectiveness at range. And Salvo isn't even that bad to begin with. Very balanced overclock.

I like the format a lot. I LOVE how you define your fun and context before giving what I feel is really constructive feedback. You made a point to highlight some of GSG's reasons to focus on designing for casual players before comparing the new content to modded games. Why should GSG spend resources on a market which is: 1) way smaller than I think you think (only an extremely slim margin of players install mods, let alone feel 6x2 is chill; and more importantly 2) a market whose needs are already perfectly well served by mods! If I were gsg I'd def take your feedback into strong consideration. I'd like to see less nitra received per pickaxe strike, smaller nitra patches, or fewer patches, or any combo of the three. The buffs to ammo count would inherently make guns weaker from swapping. That alone gives the players agency in choosing the problem they'll have to deal with.

Also yeah, it rewards bunker playstyles which are honestly the most boring strat hands-down. I think a good change would be making player vulnerability only make you take more damage from certain enemies instead of all of them, for example it feels fine on grunts and makes them a more dangerous threat when comboed with the aggressive enemies modifier.

Honestly your takes on haz 5+ are how im feeling too. I've just been sticking to more and aggressive enemies for the most part. Deep scan is pretty fun mission too. The drillevator still has the cinematic magic so I'll see if I start to hate it or not later on. From someone who doesn't play modded drg outside of 10+ dwarfs messing around, Haz 5+ doesn't feel that much harder, just more annoying with dwarf vulnerability and durability. It just messes too much with my mental numbers which is too much permanent damage I cannot afford to take. I do like the new secondaries we can get both on regular missions and DDs too. Having a small refinery without the defense phase of it feels fast and nice alongside finding 2 crystals. They shake up the DDs more which thank god, DDs really needed new content after the drought of S3-4. The new warnings help it out a bit too. I am curious to hear your opinion on the OCs because they're definitely very unique compared to what we have now. I'm running builds like burning nightmare sludge pump and taking repellant off of platform guns suddenly.

The best thing they did with the hazard 5+ mechanic is being able to choose what you want to increase as a modifier. L will probably increase the amount of enemies and aggressiveness, games that just increase damage you take and health for difficult usually create bland or unhealthy gameplay. Another thing to add is imo hazard 5 + will be a big thing for console, since in pc we can just mode to what we want anyway. Even them some players just despise moding so the option being right there is good for the game. L would suggest you and the modding community gives feedback for more options in how we increase difficulty instead of just diminishing its value. More settings for haz5+ is the way to go. This season is incredible, although we can sure make hazard 5+ better 😅.

DRG has an excellent learning curve. The speed at which you unlock new tools and learn how to use them against tougher bugs while learning faster ways to complete objectives navigate caves etc is excellent. The difficulty curve being lackluster always felt to me like it did the game a disservice. I'm still continuing to improve at this game with well over three hundred hours, but the bugs have been the same since hour 30. I understand that many players will never reach haz 5, and that many more will simply be content playing on easier difficulties and relaxing with their friends. The game has plenty to offer these players, but it also has plenty more to offer those willing to take the plunge, and I've always been of the opinion that all of the depth the developers have poured into this game is severely underappreciated when the max difficulty your average player has access to requires them to use only a fraction of it. With that being said, I highly doubt any more difficulties will be added past this point, and while I appreciate the sentiment I really do wish they had gone further if only to push more players towards the modded community.

Hard agree on the friendly fire encouraging toxicity. I've had multiple games where players will kill their teammates before they leave the mission and also just randomly. This one time a gunner host would constantly intentionally shoot at his teammates and it ended up with him killing all of us, going afk and then failing the mission because he took too much damage through the drop pod resistance. I was banned from his lobby and I'm only upset about it because I never got the chance to block him on Steam. I am 50/50 on removing friendly fire because in my 750 hours of game time, this has only ever happened to me 4 times, but it is significant enough that I would say removing it is warranted. A nice middle ground could be keeping the feedback and voicelines from the friendly fire but remove the damage wholesale. It would keep the personality but remove the frustration.

And then i proceeded to die a single spitballer shot. Insta left that shit. I'm definitely not picking stronger enemies ever. That modifier is just gatekeeping 90% of the weapons and overclocks in the game. Fuck that. Also not picking player vulnerability I think, but maybe later down the line I'll pick it just to artificially boost the difficulty. That said, lethal enemies and more enemies are amazing imo. I'm not a fan of modded difficulties mostly because not many people join those games. So having an official difficulty that's comparable to the modded one is very nice. That's honestly the biggest thing for me in the season 5. Well that and old seasons since I didn't play them and I want something to grind for.

Just came out of a struggle os 2 hours with a friend with the New Haz 5 2222. And yeah, its not that fun. We had to change our build to a really meta build, and we were still getting killed vem after playing perfect. One time we were perfect, and them a shellback spawned and hitted us. And boom, I died and my friend got tô low health and a grunt finished us off. That happened um seconds and we had everything under control before that heppened

I enjoyed this style of video. i too felt like the new mission type was cool but not really super amazing, i think it has potential to be better. im interested to hear what you say about the overclocks. also what graphics card do you have you're using the lowest settings ive seen + upscaling
@kelpree2 ай бұрын
Probably not too bothered to change the settings. This guy plays 6x2, so to compensate for the lag caused by enemies he turns down his graphics. Just a theory tho

It feels kinda hard to keep watching because your constructive criticism doesn't match up with how I feel about the game, but I would say you do have some good points. I think ghost ship games could improve hazard 5+, but the point of hazard 5+ is for people to choose how they want to make things harder, so it doesn't really bother me that much that some of the options aren't as good as others. I get a lot of my enjoyment from just shooting the guns, so I don't mind some of the slower sections of the game, though I am not a very big fan of the caretaker mission.
@nekoblue772 ай бұрын
Haz 5a as a long time 1300 hour greybeard, is legitimately so unfun. Some mission types literally i dont even think are possible to win solo or almost impossible. Build diversity is basically non-existent and boils down to "which set up do you want to use to cheese the bugs" and using anything else is an immediate L. Get too close to the edge of your shield? Instant death. Big culprits are tough enemies and especially player vulnerability. And for such an insane spike in difficulty, you get less of a bonus than just cleaning up 1 or 2 contagion spikes. Legitimately not well thought out at all.
@nekoblue772 ай бұрын
As for the mission types that are just obscene, salvage being the poorly thought out mission type as it is, is very difficult. But the hardest right now is definitely escort. Apart from the Haz5a modifier and the new phase the ommaran fight just feels harder just generally speaking, and with haz 5a solo, if you get rocks I legitimately don't think you can win. Or if you get unlucky and get too many ranged enemies because you will basically be forced to tank the drill dozer because of the spawn rates and attack speeds of enemies... Really cool for a mission to basically just be impossible.

@@SkereKelelM1K has long been considered one of scout's best options, if not one of the best weapons in the game; because of how effectively it obliterates high value targets. AISE is best at raw, sustained single target DPS; but focus shot M1K can burst dozens of different threatening enemies down in like one charge shot or one charge + a normal shot or two. DRAK is all about them gimmicks, and unfortunately many aren't very practical. but thermal exhaust feedback is one of the other competitive primary options just because that fire damage bonus is pretty damn massive. its a bit wacky but it can be good for playing more of a supportive role with your gunner or using heat spread or stuff like that.
