Egg hunt without leaving drop pod
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 кві 2022
- gunner phoned it in for work today.
Explanation: Basically, I'm just using the coilgun's mole OC to make long tunnels right to the eggs. Then I just had to ping them for Bosco to get it.
Absolutely LOVE how you chose to bring combat "mobility" for your autocannon
And he’s got dash 💀
Fucking small world Jammi
its him. the guy in mission control.
>:)
It has long been my head canon that mission control is a retired gunner who was part of the first team on Hoxxes. Karl was his scout, and got too far away from the team and had to be left behind. That's why we have that saying now.
@@wowplayer160 yes
I never would have realized that without you pointing it out, thank you for the wise words Ben Shapiro Hamburger Helper.
He really has a cozy job
“Alright team, you’re going after eggs this time-“
*already leaving*
"Congratulations! You met the quota in record time.."
"Wait, How do you already have all the eggs?"
"you didn't do as I said, you're meant to go after the eggs"
@@frostysimo1394 Bosco listened
@@lesliethedragon3700 Bosco and Lloyd. Two of a Dwarf's best friends.
My favorite part is the extraction by far. Something about running out of the drop pod and right into another drop pod is so funny to me.
I agree, that was hilarious
"oh shit, forgot my pickaxe, can i go back?"
Managements going to be really confused on how the arrival pod didn’t return till after the extraction pod
Because the drop pod has only fuel for orbit and it will slowly arrive the destination while the other drop pod has food water and all kinds of good beer (while in IRL you should not drink any alcohol)
@@shaunhayes3072 My rationale for retrieving the initial pos is the salvage missions; in those they only have one pod and one hole aside from the new one you make to land. Obviously they had issues with bugs swarming the pods and breaking them before the new protocol, stranding dwarfs and leaving them to die. Keeping the pod where the bugs can get it makes sense, since having it present doesn't make dwarf survival any more likely, and if they don't pull it out they'll lose the pod.
DRG probably values the pod more than the barel-kicking dwarf miners anyhow. Game-wise it's likely because you're near immune from all but ranged bugs while in the pod, so it would be abused, and they don't want to change the pod to let the bugs come in because it would mess up extractions.
Somebody will say that the gun is overpowered, but really its the fact that Bosco can fly through walls while carrying objects.
Bosco has the same properties as the bugs, no matter how tiny the hole, he can fit through it.
@@SkyNinja759 the bugs should need to dig through stuff
@@Jakkaribik1 They have that for the dreadnoughts and Nemesis. I don't know how it would effect cave structure if the regular bugs were mouseholing the entire map, after awhile it would become really hard to traverse.
Maybe for opressors it would work though, then have the smaller bug AI follow the opressor.
Maybe that's an idea for a "broodmother" bug in the future. A gliphid equivalent to a rival Nemesis. Which slowly tunnels towards the player within a certain radius.
@@SkyNinja759 Yes that would be funny if every bug would make a whole and in the end you have multiple different ways to go and be attacked at such a mod/mutator would be amazing combined with the unstable cave
@@SkyNinja759 The AI would need more resources and would make the game a bit slower but this would be creative
If only there was an easter egg. Where in the extremely rare cases where the drop pod is still there when the button is pushed. Mission control goes "Uhh.. w- um.. ok that was unexpected. But impressive to say the least, just stay put and come up with the pod."
And then the game ends with the first pod bringing you back up into orbit.
They have to make that a thing it'd be hilarious
That would be awesome.
Wouldn’t they have to refuel and repair the first pod? Whenever the opening pod is reused (i.e little mule rescue missions) the miners have to get batteries airdropped just to restore the power of the shuttle, and get a portable console to allow management to reprogram the drop pod for leaving the planet.
@@plasmabasher That's because the pod is damaged. The pod you use to arrive still does leave the cave without refueling.
One small problem; Anyone can pull this off effortlessly in any mission... as long as you're not solo. If anything, the voiceline would have to chastise the dwarves in the pod for hiding in it like cowards while the others did all the work.
that guy in mission control really has a cozy job.
He has to handle shit 24/7 and most of the time we do mushrooms mushrooms were rich thing
Gunner had a tummy ache but he did what he could.
Love how they really had to send in another drop pod just for you to walk a few steps from the first drop pod and then end up recalling both anyway
Mission Control is a stickler for protocol
I hate how well this worked
me every time I find something stupid to abuse
I can already see the headlines:
"Management hates him! For discovering this one weird trick! Complete missions from the safety of the drop pod!
BTW, what was your specific coilgun build for this? Or can any mole-coilgun setup work?
@@casuallatecomer7597 Not the video author but if i had to guess probably any mole coilgun could work, ammo mods might help but other than that the rest of the mods seem irrelevant for this
What's your build on the autocannon?
@@churchA.Ii think it doesnt really matter too much seeing as it doesnt help with the coilgun

@@baronvonduddo6992so if you shoot molly she’ll just think you’re making a deposit?
Your ability to judge elevation angle is amazing
I think they have significant room for error, since they just need to ping any part of the organic matter to send Bosco after it

getting the mission instructions after completing the mission is so funny lmao
Well that's about the coolest challenge video I've ever seen. Nicely done.
Some of those that work Hoxxes...
Are the same that burn glyphids...
Two tips for people trying this themselves:
1. Use waypoints to check angles on the terrain scanner.
2. Use the tier 2 coilgun mod "Controlled Magnetic Flow" to save ammo. Penetration distance does *not* depend on how much you charge your shot.
Or you can just be a god at geometry like this guy.
I was a bit surprised how often I hit the eggs in one shot. Needed waypoints for the last one though.
use driller’s power drills to aim easier as they show you the angle.
@@goatsfluffy8254the armskore coil gun is only available on gunner
@@goatsfluffy8254 you mean Zipline? Zipline gun shows angle same as Drills
I love how you took a screenshot of the entrance pod while standing in the exit pod.
A kind of "What's wrong with this picture?" situation.
I wonder what the DRG devs think of this
probably love it
Probably put in a voice line for it
if it was Digital Extremes, it would have been impossible to replicate the next morning
@@AmelpsXett hell naw DE will never touch it cuz they're busy delaying another big update
@@AmelpsXett they will add it as another gameplay element that only gets used once and gives off a material
guess what
that only gets used once
*Entering escape pod* ALRIGHT TEAM, You are going after eggs.. wait..
I can't believe you left before completing your secondary objective...
Unforgivable
There was even a fester flea flying around in front of the drop pod smh
I had a gunk seed bonus objective on a map with 5 gunk seeds one time.
@@PureGarbageWithCheeseskill issue just conjure seven more
When the Miners caught a strange Bat Virus, management told them to work from home. DRG does not waste manpower.

I have a new headcanon: every failed attempt at this created all the salvage missions we ever do.
This video proves that Bosco is more useful than human teammates.

That guy in mission control sure has a cozy job. I bet he couldn't tell a monkey wrench from a glyphids arse.
“Alright team, this time we’re gonna leave the drop pod with you. It should serve as a good safe zone for any oncoming swarms, once you’ve finished the mission, strap in and we will extract you from the cave. As for the mission, collect eggs and store them in Molly. We’ve provided you with a support APD-B317, good luck.”

When management has to go to work
The victory pose was perfect 👍🏻
Yee-haw!
You can't be serious 🤣🤣🤣 this is really using 100% of our brain.
When the gunner has to work remotely
Brings a *hole* new meaning to that's gun's over clock "the mole".
"Diggings' my middle name"
Never would've thought of using the Coil Gun, this is very creative.
Very nicely done.
It is a shame the devs did not think about this situation though. Going back with the original pod could be an awesome detail.
Ah yes, The Couch Gunner build. Nicely done. I love how mission control gives you the mission brief as you're heading back to the space rig.
Also, clever use of the waypoint. I should practice this. I don't know how it'd be useful, but I'm sure I could get into shenanigans with this. I love The Mole OC.
Thankyou, the waypoint proved very helpful in course corrections. I'm very glad you can see it in the map view.
From a main Gunner to another I salute you.
If the starting room is block by dirt, how is Bosco able to travel to the egg?
wait Bosco just passed through the walls 🗿
One of gunner's unlockable secondaries (Armskore Coil Gun) can shoot through walls, creating a hole in the ground. That's how Bosco got through.
"Molly, EAT LEAD!!"
4:29
When management said that Bosco will do half of the job for you, I think they underestimated how loyal he is.
You got some fancy armor there, wouldn't want the salt to corrode it
This just seems like a speedrunning strategy to quickly do missions
No no, not really. Im farely sure driller can do it faster.
@@Sarum9nich well I imagine that if there were speed runs there’d be a category for each class
Do it manually with scout on haz 1. 4 eggs. My best time was 3:04. Common time is 4:30. Good for 100 solo missions achievement.
@@mostlikelysmarterthanyou5031 no matter what class you play it will always be faster to help and work with Bosco
Mission Control wasn't kidding when he said Bosco can do half the job for you.
I wish we could have bosco with us on multiplayer missions with an active perk that takes up both perk slots. You get two drones on solo missions.
My idea: Engie can trade turrets for a bosco, it has limited ammo for guns and missiles, and/or limited deployments (like gunner shield); does everything bosco does and is resupplied by ammo drops. _Maybe minus the missiles._
@@kauske maybe one (or two missiles with upgrade) per deployment if it has limited deployments
@@kauskeor a bosco with no weapon capabilities at all. It’s just an extra miner that can reach hard places or dig while you defend yourself
that would leave scout as a glorified torch light, hes already the multilayer bosco
Maybe on obscenely endgame stuff beyond deepdives, some really tough holdout objective or extensive exploration, the company decides to pull out all the stops and allows dwarfs to take boscos with them on multiplayer, and when downed you get the choice to tell bosco to use a revive, or not to if a teammate is coming to get you
I chuckled at how you scurried out of the old pod and into the new one
huh... so does the escape pod drop only on places marked by the automap? that's neat
not really i guess, im fairly sure it has something to do with molly pathfinding and since he didn't explore any cave and didn't create any tunnels, drop pod is thrown in to the only aviable place for molly to go, the starting room
@pop bob That sounds possible. My theory is that with egg collection missions, the drop pod tends to land back at spawn room more often than not, so it likely happened in this case. And I've seen Molly walk through a wall that I couldn't fit the tip of a pickaxe through, this is evidenced when you plug all entrances to the drop pod using engie. No matter how plugged that hole is, if there's a hole, molly will walk through it. So I think it's just because of the drop pod typically landing in spawn room is my guess.
@@BeanBon_X3 Molly will walk through walls to get where she wants to go if there's no actual path, but I don't think the drop pod will spawn anywhere she can't path to. I HAVE heard reports of her going through coilgun holes, though.
I've noticed it tends to land close by the furthest objective point from the average position of the group, obviously anyone who's played a refinery map or five hundred can attest to that
I have a strong opinion that drop pod lands far from you and why it landed so close this time is what the guy above explained. I remember once after a Doretta mission I went to search for ebonuts and called for drip pod next ti the start of the cave. Well, drop pod landed in the hearthstone room which I've never seen to happen. Maybe it indeed chooses from places that have been marked on the map. Interesting..
That's how Karl used to complete egg hunts. Except.. he didnt have Bosco
This is accually smart, you can even nail the second objective
There's only a few fleas in the first room, and since they don't show up on the scanner, you can't hit them without guessing
@@remouladenbaron4903 simply get lucky
@@nathanielflear9045 with enough time they surely all show up one by one if people want to test their patience they can wait
Man, this would make getting the "Karl would be Proud" achievement too easy.
Damn this can be a speed run challenge on its own. Hopefully you can record this on your second run and time it.
i think the RNG would prevent this from being a fair speedrun
@@Andythecreature But speedrunning in most of the games is basically 90% rng 10% consistency and skills lool
Exploits aside, Bosco is so well designed you really do wonder why they don't just send him and Molly down there Wall-E style.
"Xynarch Charge-Sucker"
gotta love mission control giving you the intro briefing as the mission is ending
Clicking onto your channel and seeing the next most popular vid being a teardown clip explains a lot about this video!
Wow. My Bosco never tosses me the loot. He just hovers there looking cute with his little hands full.
When bosco is close enough too you, you can press the call button to get him to toss the item to you. It’s “x” on keyboard, not sure about console. Same button as a the “come over here” button.
@@papahemmy8587 Thanks!
Bro really said, "Don't feel like walking today.... Bosco, you're up"

Gunner isn't lazy.
he's effecient
"Laziness is the Father of Innovation" - Stephen Shapiro
This is how an elf would complete the mission.
The glyphids really just waiting in front of the pod like:
"Come on... do something already."
Haha, brilliant!
Who has the cozy job now, management?!
gunner sure has a cozy job
Can we just acknowledge that this takes a lot of 3d trigonometry to actually pull off? Each egg is about 1 meter tall and half a meter wide, and he's got to plot out the distance, angle, and direction at a tight area of error. And one shots it three out of four times.
I’m flattered, but pinging the organic matter around the egg also gets bosco to go fetch it. I’m precise but not that precise.
@@papahemmy8587 Fair. But even with the radius of about 5 meters, that's still an impressively tight area to estimate and shoot to.
There should be a secret that if the drop pod never leaves, then that one will be the escape pod
me a minute in: THAT'S NOT FAIR
me two minutes in: **T H A T IS N A H T F A I R R R R R R**
"Alright team, we're going after eggs this ti...what do you mean 'you're already done'? 🤨"
The occasional cough through your mic makes it seem like the gunner was sick but all out of sick days to use so he just had Bosco do all the work.
I knew someone would say something. I was sick during this.
"Go through hell and back and fetch that egg"
bosco: o7
what a champ
"Huh, well played miner... In no time, you will become just like me."
local lazy gunner critizes managements wastefulness after an extra droppod was sent down.
How did you get your angles so good for its elevation?
I play driller a lot. I kinda just get a knack for it after awhile. It became a lot easier once I remembered that the waypoint was visable on the map. You can see in the video that place waypoints at the ends of the tunnels inorder to course correct 3:40-4:25. As long as you're accurate enough to hit the orgainic material, you're good.
@@papahemmy8587 genius. I guess I'll just try that out for Karl Would Be Proud if my attempts to get it normally don't go anywhere. Never tried yet.
@@AziSlays the easiest way to get karl would be proud is to go with driller on a short aquarq mission. player count doesnt really matter but fast drills is what will help you a lot. and a good cave seed as well.
@@papahemmy8587 you don't really have to hit organic material for bosco to start mining the egg the waypoint just needs to be close to it. So when you missed the first shot you could have tried pinging it anyway and make another hole when that didn't work but who cares.
@@drecksbongert4367 the upgrade for drills that makes them faster actually does nothing unless you're on rich atmosphere, as the walking speed is too slow to keep up with drilling speed.
my mouth has been dropped this entire video.

Maybe because their AI isnt advanced enough yet

Leaving the mission
Mission control: “alright here is the missio- oh wait you already completed it”
"Choose a Lazy Person To Do a Hard Job Because That Person Will Find an Easy Way To Do It"
I never considered playing a three person crew and having one person stay in the shuttle before! It would be a funny little Easter egg if you wouldn’t even have to wait for extraction!
“That guy in Mission Control really has a cushy job”
I swear, the drop pod just sounds like a fire alarm.
I really hope they make this into an achievement case that'd be sick
It’s funny how bosco just phases through the caves
Welp, the gunner is my least used class. I have everything unlocked on every other class, but after seeing that side arm that penetrates everything?? I guess I'll start working with him again, that's dope AF! Rock N Stone!
can even penetrate through the front of an oppressor.
Hang on. I had a mission where a chunk of ore got inside the original drop pod, it pulled out, and the same chunk (singular identical piece) was in the escape drop pod. I thought that was confirmation that it was the same pod come back at the end; would this video disprove that, or is it more of a complete and perfect copy?
I think that was probably just a coincidence lol
So this is the real world applications for math and geometry they kept talking about back in high school
What in the rock and stone is this
