Meme When you watch a base next to yours packed with containers and better equipment than yours waste away because the console is buried underneath.

Guide / Tip The front fell off...

Post image
• Upvotes

I was going to post this as a query before I realised what had happened and now post it as a PSA...

I moved a small base to the north to be near the map edge and the resources I needed. 2 days ago I was rearranging the internals and accidentally demolished my console. Nothing happened, so I just put it back and carried on, but I rebuilt it slightly further back from its original location.

2 days later I log in and find that the front of my base has been shaved clean off because the land claim moved with the console and the forward 3 units or so were no longer inside it. 😄

Thankfully the only losses were walls, floor and a couple of pentashields. Could have been a lot worse. Staked out the claim in front and rebuilt.

Just confirming that these items are there forever now, no matter what I do? Not even Shai-Hulud can rid me of these items apparently. I've talked to the associated quest giver

Resource Large Spice Refinery

Nothing big I suppose. But I’m a solo player on a multiplayer server and I just managed to build a large spice refinery. It’s taken so long to finally gather enough materials for it I can scarcely believed it. Just feeling a bit chuffed.

Guide / Tip TIL: You don't have to Cutterray all the lines

29 Upvotes

425 hours in and I just realised you can aim at any single bit of cyan (or where there WAS cyan) on doors/containers and just keep lasering that single spot. It's simply timer based.

ETA: Thank you all for update, tweaks and tips.

Further edit: I was only talking about doors and shipping containers. People clarify it also works with ores etc. but you get a bad return so it's not recommended.

My neighbor on N/A, Bomoko, Sietch Tharwa has lost power to their base. I'm just writing this in hopes of finding them and informing them that they need to add fuel to their generators. It's a cool looking base and I'd hate to see it get damaged from Sandstorms. Thank you.

Game Feedback Reckless Lunge rework

• Upvotes

Reckless Lunge allows you to stack upto 90% damage reduction. In PvP where stamina isn't an issue, we can currently stab the air then swap to a shotgun or disruptor and fire away while barely taking damage. For example, an ancient way point blank to the face only does 8 damage with the effect active. That's clearly not the intended use, but it's currently the best one.

A fix shouldn't make the ability useless, like the previous worm attack that came for crippling strike. My suggestion is to null the effect as soon as you swap to a ranged weapon. That keeps it viable for melee builds while closing the loophole.

I got this at release and bounced as I didn’t have the time to commit to consistent upkeep and had bad experiences with griefers. I’m hooked with Solo however as I love the game like this

Discussion I actually saw a Falling Ship tonight!

10 Upvotes

For the very first time since the Sept. 15 update, I actually saw a ship fall from the sky and land in the basin! In the last few days, I've actually been seeing ships that have already crashed in a couple locations around the basin (mostly in the Sheol where the worm can't eat them) but tonight was the first time in almost six weeks that I've actually seen one drop! I just wish they were back to the drop rates they were before Sept 15.

Discussion Scourge Event: when do new contracts / missions become available?

4 Upvotes

I played the event missions irregularly within the past days. Is there a pattern when contracts become available (or is this known) and do we know how many contracts there will be?

It seems like there is some sort of story unfolding and that we might get another reward (hooded version of the plague doctor), potentially as reward for the contracts. However, I will be on vacation tomorrow and won't return before the event ends. I wish Funcom would let us take part in the event missions on our own time.

Gameplay Question People in Carriers keep stopping to wiggle their wings at me.

I'm a little nervous about this. Is there something on my face? Is it a form of flirting? Are they trying to warn me something is lurking around my base?

Maybe it's the same guy doing this to me all the time, but I'm getting paranoid...

Getting a character levelled isn't hard, so what's stopping me having two characters that share a base and vehicles weapons etc. and then just playing on whatever one wins the landsraad that week?

Is there any downsides to doing something like this?

So I took the first mission related to the Scourge event and delivered supplies to Dr. Shaffat. At some point, she ran a blood test and told me I tested positive.

What's bugging me is (pun intended): If I'm not feeling like following up the thread to help Dr. Shaffat find a cure, then what? Will I end up with "ego hemorrhaging" and "brain-cell fusion"? Will I develop powers and become an X-Men?

Discussion Thoughts on the Treadwheel

25 Upvotes

The DLC missions for for this (Lost Harvest) were a mixed bag, but now I'm done with those I can finally build the treadwheel and this thing is fun.

I'm running on a console so, this may not be usable with a keyboard. Even with a controller, it can be a little hard to control at times but once you get over the learning curve it's a blast. Turns on a dime, launches like a stunt bike (doesn't fold front first like the sandbike), and attracts less attention on the open sand. I've only built the basic version so far (Mk4) but it can top 100 with the thrusters kicking.

It's a novelty item yes, burns fuel like crazy, leaves you exposed to the elements, and it's no doubt gonna get me killed sooner or later but worth it for shits and giggles. Also looks damn cool in the garage.

One thing I would have loved to see: independent control of each wheel using the two triggers. The shoulder buttons could then be reverse, allowing for some crazy donuts. Would be an even harder learning curve (maybe make it an option) but I think once mastered, this thing would be awesome. As it stands today, they seems to have modeled the physics pretty well but the controls are suck in classic race car mode. That's an update I'd love to see but until them I'll take it as is.

Discussion Character transfer issues

2 Upvotes

Over the last 2 days I have tried to transfer two different characters in neither one of them would allow me to.

When I hit transfer character it takes me to the server selection screen, but instead of having the transfer stuff on the left, there's stuff on the right. When I select a server, it starts me down the character creation path instead of transferring the character.

For reference, I am playing on the steam deck. This happened before the latest update and after. Any suggestions?
