@swooshboy @DatIrishFella @Big-Red @Levo , you guys getting any decent loot on the dz at your current levels? All I got was a bunch of shit
It's been a mixed bag.
The best was from a DZ vendor.
It's the daily today. We tried starting it with 3. Bad idea.
Just had a good session with @christy87 for a couple hours or so, done a fair few encounters and couple missions, actually got a decent gun from one of them. Can't remember what it's called now, someone's apartment I think.
Amherst
That's the fecker! Tough mission
Wait till you experience missions on challenging difficulty. Doing the tunnel one now! lvl 32 gold enemies
I guess this is where teamwork really counts
Yeah, I got a great clip of us bombing a bunch of enemies storming with golf clubs. Still doing the mission and at the boss now.
Done. Fun times.
Gotten a few decent pieces of gear - a couple of which are level locked to one level higher than me, so can't equip them yet. I picked up a backpack that will unlock one, or maybe two levels above where I am now which will give my stats a huge boost.
The weapons have been pretty good - I've settled on using the SRS Marksman rifle and the AUG Assault Rifle with the Magnum as my sidearm. Love how little recoil there is on the AUG - very accurate and a really good amount of damage. I had tried the P416, M4, AK47 among others, but this one feels like the best to me. I usually tend to like sniper rifles, and use the SRS as it delivers more damage than the M1A that I had been using. I think I have 'upgraded' both of these a couple of times through finding slightly better versions of them in the DZ - so am happy with that.
Anything that isn't of use I just deconstruct and craft other gear - some of it offers an improvement, but usually seems to be on par with what I have.
But the DZ seems pretty cool right now - I feel as though it will change slightly as there isn't much PvP action going on at the moment. This obviously makes it easier to loot stuff, but takes away some of the tension (although also removes some of the potential frustration I guess!).
Russian Consulate on challenge.... ARGGHHHH!
Nobody seemed on yesterday so i was doing it via matchmaking. Horrible experience. I got to the boss with one group after breezing through most of the mission, only for one idiot to storm ahead, then disconnect because he was to impatient for the revive in an awkward place. It then became impossible with three players.
After that furthest got was before the safe room... They need to take into account gear with level 30 matchmaking, i was getting paired with a lot of players who had not completed the original mission so i doubt the gear was any good and they were getting destroyed. Then you had players who were using completely pointless skills.
Tip: If you are in an organised group for challenge mode and you need to deal with rushes. At least two people with Zap/Flamer turret or flash sticky bomb to crowd control the rush, two people with pulse scan with damage/crit bonus and it becomes very easy.
Looks like Massive will be making changes to the Rogue system soon. To try and get more PVP play. Not sure if that's good or bad, i like being able to extract in peace.. but does take away from the tension in the that was present in the BETA.

I like what they did with the Intel, some games would have you looking up gaming sites to find the locations for things like this, but not this just finish the zone and it's all in the map.
Over 3 hours that consulate mission took me, I was amazed nobody quit, even me. I'm the last one to give up usually but after the 5th wipe on the beginning bit I was on the brink, the warning signs were there! Got a good drop though so was worth it in the end.Matchmaking is pot luck atm, I got a group yesterday to do Lexington and we breezed through a few runs taking under 20 mins a time. In future, if we don't clear the beginning section of a mission with relative ease I'm out of there, its a potential extra 2 hours out of my day I can avoid.
If you miss the echos in the missing persons side missions is there any way to activate the ones you have missed.
Pretty sure you can just replay the missions again.
Really need to lower my stamina a bit and increase my firearms/electronics stats a tad as though the DPS says its high, the actual damage per bullet isn't that great at the moment.
Maybe you just keep missing?

You can RE match make mid mission if someone drops.
Anyone experience any lag issues, im doing the Subway morgue mission and every once in a while my bullets stop doing any damage and i randomly die

Have any of the PC lads also got Windows 10? I'm getting tempted to upgrade and wonder how this (and games generally really) perform on 10?

Im Shit with names, deal with it
So even after that you still thought anus tart was a good choice of name ?
@christy87 I should be on at 11ish if you're around, just eating my tea
Probably gunna craft that Vector myself at some point as it is supposed to be better if you get decent talents, for now though my Midas is doing the job just fine!
The Russian challenge thing is hell. Hell. So many things happened, host going afk and when new people joined they couldn't get to where we were as one of the doors stayed locked so had to wipe.
fecking hell, Brocky's talking to a Mexican Division player about Hernandez.We brought him on a big Dark Zone spree, he died and Brocky picked up his gold loot thinking it was dropped from a boss. Atmosphere very awkward now.
Happy ending. Brocky suicided twice until the gold item dropped.
Never mind. A randomer swooped in like a magpie and picked up Brocky's purple loot

Today i'm going to spend a trying to rebuild my gear with all my golds, and try and get near the stats i have now. Iv'e got 2200 on Firearms, 2100 on Stamina and 1900 on Electronics. Slightly annoying when you get gold but everything adjusts around. At the moment my stats are balanced so all my gun talents are unlocked. It's great 'oh I've got a gold... feck sake it takes my health to 1400'
Not sure if so true on challenge mode missions? Tried... but kept getting 'no matchmaking in no respawn zone' With normal and hard, if you're down and die for x time you can respawn at the checkpoint. Challenge missions, once your dead your a dead till you're revived or the whole team dies. Also in normal/hard the checkpoint does not reset if you all die, it picks up where you left off i think. Where was challenge it resets back to the first wave.
Said that for me too but still managed to matchmake fine during that mission from hell.
Where were you? Dunno it just wouldn't even let me start the matchmaking process.
Did you change the fireteam settings from friends only to open to all? I did that as well and worked a treat.
Was in various places during the Russian mission as a few dropped out. Was around the panic room bit mainly.
