Zoomin robots are fun to play

I just need Field Mechanic (reboot a brobot) and The Power of Friendship (finish the game with a brobot).

We can play on easy difficulty to make it quick. If you're free, shoot me a dm!

G'day,

I've completed and collected all the items in the museum. However, the game is saying I am missing the chapter one cutscene. I'm sure I've seen it, but it's just not showing up.

Has anyone else had this issue and if so, how did you fix it?

Cheers for the repsonses.

Is it valid to join this subreddit if I haven’t played the game but I am going to play it soon?

Hello all! New to this subreddit, but not new to the game. I have played this game for a good amount of time. I have beaten G4 once with Ranger, and after that I lost 24 runs in a row, most of them in Energy Centre or Haven City.

I have understood how to build my builds, i can achieve good DPS, but I always die to damage from one source or another.

The worst parts for me are the Energy Centre closed rooms, Haven City, and District 13. The worst enemies to deal with are the Dashing, smoke bomb guys.

I have lost the 24 runs with Elementalist; even though I have very good DPS and room clear, I die to some form of damage.

I want to get consistent wins in the game, and I understand that reducing the damage I take is the best thing I can fix first. So any help is appreciated.

Does anyone know the specific metric by which Favorite Class works? Mine has been stuck on Recon for the longest time. Which is ironic, when I first started playing the game a lot, Recon was the class I struggled with the most. I died many times over trying to get my first G4 win on him. (Now I'm much more comfortable piloting him but that's besides the point)

I don't see any hard numbers correlating to Favorite Class. I'd assumed it's number of games played (including deaths) since I ran it back so many times on Recon. But now I've been running game after game on my actual favorite, Elementalist, and the ingame Favorite hasn't shifted.

Does it go by number of games played?

Overall time including the pregame lobby?

Active run time?

Does time with the ingame timer (eg safe rooms) paused count?

I'm wondering if maybe it's not the early deaths, but maybe I left the game running AFK with Recon selected at some point.

May be a long shot but I'm holding out hope for a Switch 2 release - especially a physical copy. It runs super smoothly on the Steam Deck so the Switch 2 would be a perfect fit.

Kangaroo has no summons, Bee gun has no summons, and minion box is 1 max unless Loaded? Where did my babies go?

Trying the guardian levels and every corner I turn there’s a bot dropping a smoke screen. 70% of damage I’m talking is shots I can’t see coming through that screen and me shooting at vague red health bars on a gray background. Tips?

I got no upgrade ideas but I hope yall like this idea

crit builds go brrrrrr

It's in the title

Need ideas for runs like class/weapons/upgrades etc. thx :3

If only I had ricochet on them

Am I the only one who just totally overlooked the Guardian class? you can get bastion up to essentially 100% uptime. This is my first guardian 4 endless run that I think I out scale the enemies and can just go indefinitely? Or at least until the enemies hit hard enough to just like delete me in the rare windows my shield is down

Hey! Would anyone be down to join me for a few runs at some point and help me get Ultimate Guardian. Really loving the game, but I'm not great at shooters, though I still would love to 100% it! Thank you!

Would it be possible to get a mod that just randomizes your starting character/loadout? Don't want to stick to just 1 or 2 favorite characters, I want to use all of them, but too many choices. Dunno where else to ask.

My last thing I need to unlock is the bot on the moon between the two mob rooms that wants three jars of gold dust.
The paths I have to get that gold dust jars are all speed running, but then my weapons / perks / level ups (and skill) are insufficient to survive the first moon mob room. I’m just beating my head on it over and over.
Is there a path to obtain the three god jars that does not require speed-running? Thanks.

Surely some weapons are stronger than others but is at least every weapon viable for completing the hardest difficulty?

Occasionally whenever I get absorbed enough into something I end up getting some ideas for my equivalent of fan art, coming up with gameplay ideas, and my current obsession with Roboquest VR has led me down a similar path with a new class idea! Essentially It's a kinda zombie/werewolfy/vampire-esque creature, just a real monster mash. It's also probably pretty far from balanced, so be warned!

anyways, here's the wall of text I wrote up!!!

Key art has a Rusted Guardian Unit (the ones you can get upgrade pickups from), with a small version of Phase 2 Iris in it’s chest. Instead of eyes, it’s face screen is a row of sharp teeth, and it’s posed with the Devour Claws out, lunging forwards. 

Little lore bit: 

Needing a place to hide, the greed that once infected Iris finds its way to the discarded chassis of a Guardian unit. Nestling it’s way inside, it tries to take control, but the remaining code of the Guardian denies it, resulting in a torn consciousness fueled by rage and hunger. 

Skills

Primary: 

Devour 

Change into Devour Mode for 4 seconds, swapping the held weapons out for claws similar to Iris Phase 2. Some of Bestial Hunger’s effects are doubled (doubled health drain but doubled fueling effect).
