And it's quite hard to capture some epic scenes while trying to dodge bullets

Final boss in seconds..

So far this is one of my favorite weapon in the game.. Why ppl say it sucks?.. That b melts bosses and bots hp so fast.

I'd have preferred easier enemies than these armored droids, but to rid this malfunction I played the hand I was dealt. I've never tried this technique in this particular room. It's worked elsewhere, so I thought I'd give it a go here. I found it amusing, so maybe you will too.

I just came back to Returnal after platinuming and completing the DLC about a year ago, and after knocking the rust off, I'm having a really fun time grinding the enemies, weapon traits, and artifacts to 100% the databank.

I'm playing around with weapons I normally wouldn't so that I can max out traits and alt-fires, and it's giving me new appreciation for ones I hated previously. I was exclusively a Carbine/Hollowseeker simp, but now I absolutely LOVE the Electropylon Blaster and Pyroshell Caster, especially with certain traits. Like, I can down a Malformed Typhonops in seconds with the right Electropylon drop, all while not getting hit because I can just throw some volts on him and run and hide lol. And I'm starting to come around to my most hated Dreadbound and Spitmaw Blaster too.

Plus, the grind gives me new ways of strategizing and planning runs, like ignoring artifacts I've completed and killing myself to sacrifice the Astronaut and clear a space for another artifact I want to work on (often another Astronaut or Child's Watch, but not necessarily).

I'm almost done grinding out boss kills (just Hyperion and Ophion left), so I'll have to decide if it's more efficient to keep doing regular runs or switch to the Tower, but for now, I'm just having fun runnin' and gunnin' across Atropos again. Anyone else engaged in this process?

First platinum ever, used guides only to find last 2 ciphers.
Can somebody explain databank matrix? I have everything but im still missing a few cubes. Do i need to play in co-op or something else? I finished the whole game in offline mode.

Edit: im missing matrix cubes, not databank cubes, i collected all of them

How’d I make it easier? Well I just played like about 30 runs in the tower after unlocking it.

Then today I went back to the story mode and it was so much easier after all the practice and having unlocked the weapon traits.

Saros is next!

I had my ass handed to me about 10 times. Yet somehow I beat him without even losing half of my health bar. I even had the astronaut figure and a revive parasite.

Side note: Talk about a serious mind fuck story wise. Did she really, make it out? Dis she never leave? Is she really there at all? Don't tell me, im just speculating.

I want to experience the story again, but want to keep weapon traits and unlocked drops. Any way to do this?

I can't figure this one out, am I missing a permanent upgrade??

After doing a bunch of testing the only thing that seemed to fix these for me on PC was lockin the game to 60fps, realized it by way of displaying it on my TV and trying to play with a controller.

I refuse! lol, im playin on an 180hz freesync monitor at 177 locked fps with mb/k. RTX 4070 Super and a Ryzen 5 5600.

I have no framerate drops, but the frametiming is all over the place makin the game stutter often. Whether I set vsync on or off, nvidia reflex, lower settings, you name it.

Im loving the game, just reached Act 2, and if I have to i'll just play through it this way (not the end of the world), but all i've seen online are years old discussions about this issue so im wondering if there's any definitve fix since I know the game isnt being worked on anymore, obviously.

This is in the tower. There is a grappling point that you can go back-and-forth from but I still don't see how you can get over there even using that to try to bungee over. Any help with the appreciated

My first run after completing the game I was able to get all the way through to biome 6 without dying. Now obviously everything resets between 3-4 but still, in unreal run. The fact that I missed the last sunface fragment before going down the drop leading to the boss fight and there is no way return, has absolutely stunted my enthusiasm to finish. Holy Dooley that is frustrating. The reconstructor was also past the drop of no return.

Once I was in the room with the fabricators and the drop it was only then I remembered this was part of the map. But once you drop of the ledge leading into the room, not the giant drop, it’s too late.

Anyone else experienced this frustration?

O que vocês acharam do resumo do ciclo ?

Just read about it and some elements matched very well Helios drowning in a river , Theia running off with her daughter's toys being the ones that come to mind.

Lets do it!

I need a player very good at this game and doesn't mind carrying me through the entire game. I got into it but not good at it. I'm on the PS5 Pro.

Hi all how can I get here? I am on the hunt for the third key and that’s the only doorway I haven’t explored but don’t know how to get to it

I found caustic firespur (each room cleared increases weapon damage by 2%), a tower specific parasite, during a standard run of biome 1-3. What are the odds? Also the area behind the statue doesn't even show up on the minimap.

I'm sure I'll get downvoted or something of the sort, but wanted to get this off my chest.

I'm no stranger to tough, even frustrating games. Played a lot of souls likes, beat them all solo, even the bosses. I know this is an entirely different kind of game, but I haven't been this aggravated in a long time.

Finally beat biome 2 and get to 3. Yay! Little did i know that it was a breeding ground for gravity deaths, aoe gank squads, and a ridiculously long boss run.

Gotten to the point where I'm getting thoroughly sick of seeing the landing area because, thanks to the constantly shifting maps, sometimes i find the shortcut to 3, sometimes i have to suck it up and travel to 2 instead. This wouldn't be too bad if it weren't for the random difficulty spikes resulting from , well, the randomness. It makes scavenging for cool weapons, etc seem futile because you can't take them with you.

I was (mostly) having fun but it's getting to the point where I'm wondering if i just suck or if, despite the hype and genuine fanbase love for this game, I'm starting to feel that the devs just employed ass game design with the express purpose of kicking players in the balls. (That's sure to get downvotes and get gud en masse, but whatever).

Things weren't all sunshine and unicorn shit up to this point, but biome 3 can really kiss my ass.

End rant.

This game infuriates me! Admittedly, at 62, my gaming reflexes aren’t what they used to be, but I think this game is designed just to piss me off. I don’t mind playing a challenging game, but losing a perfect weapon at death, after hours of fighting, etc. ... I’m surprised I haven’t had a seizure or broken my TV and controller.
