Someone activated a core stone while the morkite refinery was going (endless swarm that does not stop even when the pump sequence is finished). Ended up with only me left standing and all iron wills expended. I had to run around so damn much to finally be able to revive people and kill the core stone and even with it gone we were still in a bad situation. Much, much more running and fighting later we finally finished the pump sequence and called evac, even managed to put the core stone in the extraction pod and finish the mission. Man I wish I had recorded that because I was sweating like mad for what felt like 10 min straight (at least).
I played a deep scan mission yesterday. Put platforms on some nitra and the scout went to mine it, I went to mine something else. Suddenly, scout goes down. I have no clue why. No enemies and no hazards anywhere. Then I realize, he got crushed by the drillevator as it spawned in, since someone finished the last resonance crystal right as scout went to mine the nitra. How unlucky do you have to be for the drillevator to spawn right above you when you're on such a huge map as a deepscan mission?
You probably noticed given the amount of time that passed while Anna was afk, but swarms completely stop spawning once you’ve scanned all the crystals & the drillevator arrives. If you tunnelvision on finding them, you can usually get it done before you even need to resupply & mine/do secondaries at your leisure afterwards. Particularly useful for when there’s core stones, machine events, korlok tyrantweeds, etc. and you don’t want bugs interrupting
also very useful on modifiers like swarmageddon where its just a shit ton of grunts and swarmers with very little ranged enemies. ranged enemies actually target people on ziplines specifically to make them fall
I saw the view count (131 as I am watching) and got so sad because I thought your videos stopped being recommended as much and then I saw that it was released 5 minutes ago.
Did you know if you drink a black out stout right b4 a mission starts you will be so drunk and blind it will be unplayable i found out the hard way. :)
i just found this channel and have been binge watching it for days, but my name is also taylor, so whenever someone tries talking to you i think someone is calling out to me for a split second and it throws me off every time. love the vids though!
anna forgot that being a glyphid doesn't make the spitters not target you. but to be fair, it's possible to win that situation strafe around both spitballer and vartok, vartok projectiles are pretty slow, and spitballer's is dodgable if you jump right before it attacks, the balll will pass your head and scout has the cryo bolts/grenades to freeze and stop and kill the spitballer as quick as possible, and then slowly focus on vartok's bulbs (a cover from the main plant would be preferable)
Anna is not quite a part of the swarm; she herds them to their destination. It's like pushing cattle, they don't attack due to complacency rather than kinship. Nice outro by the way. Very talented.
I don't run Iron Will and it's very fun to see the mindset of people who do. (The perks I use vary between builds but I almost always make room for Unstoppable, because ignoring slow effects is awesome and there are a lot of heavy objects even discounting stated mission goals that are worth being able to fasthaul.)
I bring you all a parcel of knowledge I discovered on day 1. You can call a resup underneath the drillevator and it will fall with it as it mines, then when it hits the bottom it will do a big jump higher than the standing platform will be. This will kill whoever it hits.
I absolutely love the shenanagans yall get up to! Im sad that your newer videos arent as popular as they once were. The real ones are still here for you!
damn, i love your content, surprises me how you have so few subscribers. I'm sure if you stick with it you'll eventually get substantially more. I can't stop binging your content lol
I’ve said it before, but y’all make the best DRG content online, and this was your best video yet! Short and sweet, hilarious, and a great feature of the game mechanics.
I love your editing style, it looks clean and simple but there is a lot of work and thought behind every animation and caption.. I would honestly be entertained just by watching how you make this.
You should also spam calling mule to make him more motivated and faster do triple dips on ressuply pod to be sure that youre on 100% ammo&health dont forget to set your brightness to lowest possible setting and never use flares, bright light bad for your eyes Sometimes there is bug when grunts take only 2% damage and can be pettable, you have to focus fire it untill nearby dwarf says the steeve is dead You shouldnt destroy chargesuckers on bet-c, as she will still do damage to bugs! Always leave 1 ressuply pod rack unused even if you dont have any ammo. Carl will really appreciate this When foghting dreadnaughts, pop all the coocoons and once! Your team will thanks you as now their splash weapons are more effective! And lastly, rock and stone at least every 5 seconds no matter the situation and never give up!
Tip #6 : saying "Watch this" ALWAYS ends well and is never just tempting fate, you should do it all the time! Your teammates will think you're REALLY cool! Oh and tip #0 : coordinating is for losers. Who cares what your team is doing? Just start events, pull eggs and press buttons the moment you spot them, you REALLY gotta get that speedrun time down. If your team's not ready, skill issue tbh. Make sure you remind them of that fact if you *somehow* fail too (inconceivable), it'll really help motivate them to be better next time!
1:37 While what we got was still great and funny, I was really hoping for the core stone to just glitch out and just not go through the bossfight because that can happen right now as its bugged and will occasionally do that. Idk why it does that but it pretty neat and funny. I had a team who was too scared to do core stone just today and I called them elves, proceeded to mine it out, and then nothing happened and told them "See, we had this perfectly all worked out and fine." Honestly, was the funniest thing that has happened to me in season 5 so far.
That happened to me with my very first Corestone. Found it a touch underwhelming. Then, of course, the next one blew me away! GSG really cooked with these events.
@@nameisnttaylor, it's not a bug, it's a failsafe, because game couldn't process the locations of the rifts, so it automatically completed the event, the meteorites have similiar failsafe, if it can't spawn the rock crackers.
>mine one billion morkite have you checked out Massive Content Revise? it's a pretty cool mod idk about 1 billion but im pretty sure theres a mission where you mine 2k
One really important tip for core stone fight, just burst through it. They will not stop spawning and things will just get worst, its best to just do it as fast as humanly possible
During deep scans, if you scan all geodes, you will stop swarms from coming Use this time to do season/machine events and to seek the lost gear if they spawned
I don't usually play scout but I was playing him the other day cause I'm trying to fast track him to legendary 3. The driller thought he'd be the funny man, freeze me and blow me up with c4. Of course he did. What he didn't account for: I'm so fast at hitting a and d that I got out of it faster than he could place the c4, zipped away, and shot him dead with my m1000. Then they rezzed him...and I killed him again XD I asked him over the mic, was it funny funny man? And he said "kinda lol"
Not gonna lie, I was caught off guard so hard when I heard Taylor pitch his narrator voice up a tad, but I’m relieved to see that it’s just a side-effect of all that copium. Rock and stone, everyone.
Hey Taylor, not sure if you knew or not, but if you HOLD the reload key on Engineer, you will call your turret bad to your carried inventory and will instantly reload it. I'd highly recommend doing that more often.
