Watching this like 2 weeks after Season 5 release and it's even funnier knowing how much of a banger the game is right now and always has been even if rockpox seasons were mid (I still finished the passes for them and enjoyed being a completionist while waiting for the new season LOL, DRG is just too satisfying by default especially once you get past the overwhelming/slow early game)

One other tip: Don’t be afraid to join public lobbies if you are new. This community is super friendly and is more focused on having fun than winning. Don’t feel like you are burdening your team if you get downed a lot. Saving green beards(new players) and showing them the ropes is some of the most fun grey beards will have.

I think most of the I can't progress people because I was kind of one of those until I learned of overclocks cuz the game doesn't really tell me about them untill you get there. Like my biggest problem with the game is the beginning progression system is poorly explained there's a bunch of different little terminals that you have to click on but let you do things. Like the beginning progression system is really good if you understand what the fuck is going on like where to click. But there is two different spots that are very clearly marked for new players that you have to click on to get any progression.

PSA: in the last updates they changed C4 to round up during resupply so taking one damage and one ammo feels pretty good and is enough to do caretaker shield phase in one resup on haz5 4player scaling. Taking full damage doesn't meet _that_ many damage breakpoints compared to taking 1 damage 1 ammo imho. Also _please_ don't mine down objectives during salvage, it moves the sphere in which you stay down and reduces area of your free movement. You can put it a bit lower but don't just flat out bury it, it may make thing more difficult instead of easier. As someone who doesn't particularly enjoy driller but still has him at Legendary 3, my tips for people who also aren't a fan but want more comfort while promoting them: - Faster drilling may make drills less offensively effective, but improves exploration experience tremendously. - You may consider taking stun on your C4, it gives you enough breathing room to res your teammates in a tight spot. - EPC TCF is not as hard to learn as it seems and with Persistent Plasma OC you don't need to detonate TCF shot to get OC's upside, so it's a very comfy way to build your secondary.

I liked this video because a) those are some actual good advices b) you didn't ask for it before the video even started Thanks for the good hints

I'm pretty sure all missions get harder the longer you spend on them

Damn! A GREENbeard teaching greenbeard how to be a grey beard! For your information? Mr. Engi Platform Guy, you can out-fix Doretta in meteor phase by just standing next to its track. that way no one has to waste ammo on the meteors and they can just focus making sure that bugs don't eat the dwarf who is fixing Doretta.

are you rarted?

damn thats pretty solid content, nice

These are some great tips but I don't give af where I am if I need that donkey I'm gonna call it over and then you can call it when you need it 😂

Thank you for the tips. Rock and Stone!

Nah. Rogue core won't replace DRG, it's two different games.

I tried searching but, i still have no idea what a green and grey beard are. Is it like, green is inexperienced and grey is experienced? And ig I'm so used in playing support class, that I'm sure i play really great as an engineer, but the rest I'm kinda mid

one noteworthy thing is that many of these reviews (such as the one about mission repetitiveness) are pretty old, like from 2018, and were made when the game was in a much earlier stage of development and lacked a lot of the content, features and polish it has today

Me a driller main: alright let me drill out these tunnels so that way the pipelines can be as straight and easy as possible Every fucking other drg fuckwit ever: ALLOW ME TO START BUILDING THE PIPELINES IN THE MOST UNNECESSARY STUPID FUCKING WAY POSSIBLE Seriously it happens every god damned time......

you know its a good game when the negative revoews are people with hundreds of hours whining that 1 of the seasons they dont pay for doesnt have much content

11:40 learned this the hard way as a Greenbeard :(

Rock and Stone!

People really shit on season 4 and I don’t think they should think about the future events like corrupters and the new enemy’s appearing it’s annoying now but it will be way better when they are rare and feel more fresh and fun

kid with 3 hours ingame: this game is repetitive, you're playing the same 5 missions, there's nothing new once you play for as long as i have! absolute dwarven chad with 1,000+ hours: haha yeah

TL;DR This guy stinks, is still a total Greenbeard after almost 1000 games played. He is NOT to be trusted as any sort of guru or teacher in this game. Watch this video more as a "comedic documentary" rather than an actual guide. For those you need to look for more competent people, unfortunately. Why would anyone in their right mind pick blowthrough over bonus damage on the LOK? Especially with a build that focuses on stacking up damage bonuses (and having a fire/electricity incudcing secondary, like the presented PGL build, or Inferno/HVC Breach Cutter), taking penetration over Electro-Chemical rounds is not the brightest choice. Return to Sender Breach Cutter with Damage upgrade instead of total ammo...? Sheeeesh Same with turrets row 2 upgrade. I dont know what kind of player do you have to be to choose build time over increased total ammo. Like... this doesnt calculate, and the faster build time is pretty much useless, while you take away A TON from your total damage and supply efficiency. If you feel the need to have it reduced so you can set them up quickly, you're already playing the Engi wrong. Also my fucking god, you bring repellant platforms in, and then you refuse to use them in the hackpod defense scenarios. Why bring repellant in if you're not going to use it? Just bring more platforms lmao

Rock and Stone!

3:23. There is a button on consoles. The back button, at least on Xbox.

I think the worst part of the first review is that- EVEN IF the complaints were valid, and the stuff being added wasn't substantial...Hot take! Devs aren't required to pump out updates every few months! If a game is full price, and has a decent chunk of content, they can just leave it as is, with no updates ever! And honestly, if they DID- I never see people getting pissed at games for NOT adding new content every few months- It's something exclusively saved for games that DO give you free stuff. The free updates just fuel entitlement I guess lmao

I think a lot of the toxic player reviews you dismissed too easily. You basically said "it's extremely uncommon for someone to be toxic" but so? Is that supposed to help solve toxic players? Game balance being seen as bad by newbeards is usually up to the fact that drg is easy to learn and hard to master. There are a lot of mechanics resulting from emergent behavior. Except the game is so easy to learn that unless you know the extra techs, you won't explore the game. While you can blame users, game design is supposed to account for people who perceive things differently.

Septic spreader sucks ass tho, ngl. We had the spitters, who do balanced damage. LETS MAKE A SPITTER INTO A TANK ONLY PENETRATABLE ON THE SIDES THAT BOMBARDS EVERYWHERE AND DOEL BS DAMAGE. Even shooting down the spits only makes them fall, not dissaper, which makes sense but is still meh kind of.

Got into DRG yesterday, these guides are great!

dude , that ice gun plus EPC was FIRE 🔥

No offense but as a scout main with 1000 hours on him, this is definitely greenbeard gameplay.

You can also land on enemies to break your fall

Are those damage numbers a mod?

I'll keep this in mind for later

Season 5 is adding promotion numbers into the base game, or so ive seen

Note about the twins, your teammate gets downed? focus one to get them to heal, you buy yourself enough time to res that dwarf.

Watched another one of these "tips" videos and yours is way better. Concise and clear. Thanks.

664 hours so far, still enjoy it. I'm really looking forward to the Roguelike mode even though I'm not usually a fan of roguelikes.

3:44 "fuck!" - driller

3:26 bro what are those server names

Awesome guide dude, tysm

Since the season 4 is about to end I think I qualify enough to speak about this season. I joined almost 2 months ago so I do not have the animosity that most disgruntled dwarves had during the start of this season. Septic Spreaders and Stingtails taught me to always move "wisely" to reduce the damage I take and not get myself cornered. Stingtails in particular made me see red, and sometimes I purposefully get myself pulled then power attack to stun it. Got myself out of a pinch by some strategically spawned Stingtails. Septic Spreaders are sneaky and likes to play it safer sometimes than Acid or Web Shooters, which makes them annoying and a real threat in high hazard levels if you do not spot and kill them immediately. For the Corruptor, terrain is the #1 obstacle. I had the painful experience of fighting it for the first time on a very vertical area as the Gunner, got downed 3 times before I figured out how to deal with it. But I would say that fighting it felt like I was fighting both the Stingtail and Spreader because of its mechanics. The rock that it corrupts becomes a walking hazard and the tentacles that it use to stab you from below that you must dodge reminds me of them.

kill loot-bug (you’ll die inside a little each time tho)

Nice video, maybe I should give it a li.. Oh, he killed lootbugs. Dislike

Omen Eliminator hot tip- Engie Plat a stack of pancakes on the little scanners if the purple wave thing keeps killing you. If it happens to be near a wall- even better. Use that to save ammo. You don't actually need to be boots-to-steel on the scanners. Just near and over.

Угол обзора у турелей с системой защитник 120-135 градусов

I need to get this to deal with problematic teammates.

Your so cute but your so dead

gunner tip, if you see a bug shoot it

Lol what’s the point of gunner?? Engi is nuts

Dmg text numbers is extremply annoying and in level 5 missions is impsosible to see anything

I like how the thumbnail isn’t like the other ones bc driller doesn’t have a beard lol
