Anybody getting texture loading problems. Could walk out of a base and have to wait a good 20seconds for the world to loan in.
I.e graffiti on the walls, pictures on bus stops, advertising on trucks, buildinga. Its all blurry, been like it since launch. Very off putting.

Had the texture issues on the Pro during open beta too. Bit shoddy it made it to the main game. Its one of the reason i picked up the full game on PC

Ive come accross one bug,theres a side mission i cant complete because theres a door that opens after a checkpoint. But the door is closed now for some reason and i cant restart the missions so the mission is just unfinishable atm.

Hit GS 449 just now. Just in time for update tomorrow!
Did Grand hotel challenging difficulty with randomers. It was a lot of fun and really transfers the game. We died.... A lot.... We all sticker to it and managed to finish it. As a bonus I found my first Chatter box smg part! Woot!

So what time update will be live?

I'm an idiot.

I've spent every day this week trying for the last Chatterbox part, the blueprint, only for it to not drop.

It can only be done once a day since it depends upon the hyena box in the bank mission.

So after getting annoyed, I went back and checked my crafting choices, and lo and behold, there it already was. I missed it when it did drop some time ago it seems.

Servers down 8:25 UTC which is apparently GMT, 3 hours (hopefully) and then good to go

Finished the Lincoln memorial mission last night, that flamethrower boss was an absolute pain in the hole. Level 20 now and on home stretch to end game.

Ah just my luck....was GS 421 finishing up last night and needed to be 425 to get tidal basin so hopped on this morning as my young fella doesnt have to into school until 10am so I said I would try and get to the 425. Bust out a few assassination missions and luck would have it a GS435 Mk17 dropped for me :rolleyes: man that thing is a beast.. pity they are going to nerf it in hour :(:(:(:( as causal just missed the gravy train.

What I am rocking now is that LS86 LMG, only equipped it to bump my GS but its quite good...you can slap the 30 round mag on it, mag changes are quick and it hits hard. Might have got a good roll but it looks ok. Got a good few decent drops in the half hour this morning so now up to 431 so all set for taking on tidal basin later and WT5

Zero-Cool

This on sale in Argos for 48 euro or the gold edition for 75.

The L86 almost feels more like an AR. Reload is awesome. I can't look past the M60 though. Have two with unhinged on them and they just hit like a truck. I won't even use M249s or MK17s.


Can't wait to see all the changes later. Nothing they've nerfed really hurts me.

I got a few messages on uplay from people here asking how i clear challenge missions so i thought id make a small gameplay vid and quick build explanation.

This is from the final atrium room in the Bank HQ challenge mission.
I chose this area because its a notoriously tricky area for solo play with little cover, constant grenades from enemies with rushing melee and suicide bombers that will very quickly surround you if you fail to take them out quickly.

Its all about a decent build.

This is a crit based AR build with berserk chest.
[+10% weapon damage for every 10% of max armor depleted]
Im making sure im taking some damage as often as possible you can see it proccing a lot in the gameplay,its risk/reward but pretty easy to manage.

You will also see the blabbermouth talent from the chatterbox proccing constantly giving +20% rate of fire when i reload within 5 seconds after a kill.

After that its just crit chance maxed out at 60% mostly thanks to gear as unlike an SMG you do not get a bonus crit chance so most of it comes from gear plus a couple of weapon mods.

Get a decent AR with high base damage, rate of fire is not essential because with the chatterbox blabbermouth talent your always getting a boost here.
Obviously stability and accuracy as vital too for this you can take the sniper specialization for increased stability and reload speed which is a dps boost in itself.

You can also go the survivalist route for +15% AR damage but only if you already have a stable AR which can be tricky to find with high base damage.

Apart from that i just have one brand set bonus of real use and thats +10% AR damage.
Everything else is crit chance to hit that 60% cap and crit damage with the odd bit of AR bonus damage,All weapon damage and a small bit of DTE damage.

This build is far from perfect, a lot of gear items have skill power on them instead of something more useful but the base is there with berserk chest,chatterbox blabbermouth and 60% crit chance,
Ideally i would have strained in here for the extra crit hit damage.

I hope somebody finds this useful.

The MK17 nerf will most likely affect Unstoppable Force chest Rifle builds but to be fair the MK17 was so far ahead of the other rifles that even a poorly rolled one with low damage was a lot better than god rolls of the the other rifles.
This nerf had to happen.

gimli2112

Saw an AR build today that was interesting as it was a hybrid PvP/PvE, which he seemed to be doing well with. No crit chance as his argument was the smgs you're fighting in pvp are always inside your crit range anyway. He had a lot in gun damage instead.

From memory. An AKM with no extended mag. Beserker, Destructive on the gloves and holster. He had the perk that does increased damage the more bullets you fire which I think is on the gun and another that was doing increased damage on a kill.

There's so many ways you can make stuff work. I do like the P416 on the survivalist now.

I haven't really used the rifles. I meant the LMG with a similar name (which I now can't find on the internet and it's driving me insane). I saw a marcostyles gun comparison video and yes the MK17 was streets ahead of the other rifles.

I'm so sick of shooting things. I just wanna make a Tactician build already.

gimli2112

Sigh, even though I left the PS in rest mode the patch didn't dl. 5.6GB 26 minutes dl atm probably an hour copying. It's not the end of the world, it just feels like it about now.

It'll appear as a project, like the rest.

It's do a bunch of activities in various regions, do a mission etc. All fairly basic stuff.

Spear

And a quick reminder (or maybe new info), if you've already crafted exotics like Liberty or Chatterbox, there's an upgrade blueprint at the vendor to move them up to your current tier.

ShadowHearth

I did that Tidal Basin today and it was fun. Easier then fecking island for sure!
Got two mask pieces of gear sets and got to wt5.

So I see they changed it up for WT5 and end game is a lot more fleshed out.

So what's the story with set pieces? They only drop from new stronghold or is it in loot tables of all activities?

As far as I am aware they drop from invaded content and black tusk enemies in general

Instantly got gearscore to 482 just from buying a few items from clan vendor and the secret roaming vendor lol.

Tidal basin was pretty underwhelming IMO. Massive sort of made out like it was going to be a big departure from what we had played so far, and to be honest out of the four strongholds, that one felt the closest to a big standard mission.

If you game is working as intended, I still have the crafting bench bug after getting to WT5, at this point I dont think they know how to fix the ****ing thing. Character is totally useless in this point and I would not mind I have all my exotics on this char. and I cant even transfer the blueprints over to my other char I made as a result of this game breaking bug.

shootermacg

Can't you repair your local cache? This game is very client driven, so usually the issue is with your install.

gimli2112

they broke specialist ammo and more importantly the chem heal. The latter is much more clunky, the number of times I healed enemies who were murdering me was unreal.
This "maintenance" better have fixed one of these

How do you get the exotic material to upgrade your exotic gun?

So it's not imagination that the drop rate has got to ****!

Dismantle exotics, but be careful. If upgrading a particular exotic you need to have at least 1 of the same weapon/gear to do the upgrade as well as the exotic materials.

Rob2D

Woke up and did tidal basin this morning before I even got out of the bed. Super easy compared to the rest of the game IMO.

They changed chem launcher to a double tap button to drop the heal. Very nearly got me killed, I didn't know what was going on :pac:

I did notice that no special ammo was dropping for me alright......
