For using the supercruise assist you do need to set it to manual throttle control under your ship tab on the right hand comouter. Otherwise you wont be able to control throttle while super cruise assist is engaged. This setting is set to automatic throttle control by default and really messes a lot of cmdrs up at first. Great video tho. Im gonna share this around to help new cmdrs in the future. Thanks for creating it. O7

You really should do subsystem targeting for the bigger ships so you disable their thrusters, FSD or powerplant, preventing them from escaping.

Can you do that with fixed weapons?
@zakurn1086 16 сағат бұрын
@@Gunthrek It's not a per weapon basis, if you lock a target and get a basic scan, until it remais locked, you can cycle through their subsystems (aka their internal and external modules) and the ballistic trajectory will be changed to hit that specific spot. With fixed weapons you are the one doing the aiming and with gimballs and turrets they will try and hit the targeted subsystem. I have my previous subsystem on "C", going with previous gets you to the FSD and Powerplant faster, the next subsystem I have it on the "\", that is right besides my Z key on my keyboard.

You could try kailh choc style switches.

If your plan is to undermine the station faction by supporting another minor faction, you'll often find a base in the system that you should make your "home" base for the session. You can go back there to refuel and repair between missions. If you want to use the station, don't take missions that piss off the ruling faction and wonder why "you're the bad guy".

Having options is good. PoE2 is the best ARPG experience in so long. This game isn't going to be for everyone and that's okay. We have enough games that try to be for everyone and frankly those games are pretty mediocre. PoE 2 has something special and I hope we see even crazier boss fights in 4-6. Also, it's still EA so some of the playstyles are going to be limited by the kind of loot and skills available currently. I've moved to the Hardcore SSF league and it's been a blast.
@Gunthrek Күн бұрын
Agreed for the most part. However, criticism is the point of early access, and if we want to have a chance of shaping the game toward what we want, we have to say something about the things we don't like. If the devs don't go for it, that's cool. I'll find something else to play. But not bringing up issues gets nothing done.

"casual gamer" does not apply to the majority of people who watch this video, let alone the person making it lol. Tbh this is just not the game for you if you do not like a fundamental part of the game, PoE1 is still there for you to play. This isnt PoE1.5, its a new game with new gameplay and new mechanics. The dodge roll adds another factor to the gameplay and that is how the game was built. If you do not like that and want to just stand there and tick away at HP then this is just not the game to be playing, move on to something else. You are describing changes that would make PoE2 no longer be PoE2 "If you want to play a game like that then go play an action game like that". Brother, the game is an ARPG, what do you think the "A" stands for? Your own logic applies to you, you want to play a game where you are a tank and just sit there ticking at hp with no thought on your characters placement? Go play a game like that, PoE2 is not that game and its asinine to suggest it fundamentally changes to be something it is not meant to be. It's a new game, it's an evolution. It does not need to be another game it only needs to be itself. Clearly the game it is is very popular and sought after, judging by the general reception. I think the biggest lesson that you should take from this game and your experience is that not every game needs to be made for everyone. Some games are tailored to a specific audience and that is ok, its good even. The lesson here for you should be that not liking a game doesn't mean the game needs to change itself to suit you, but rather that it's not a game for you and you should move on to find a game that is for you.

I've played ungodly amounts of POE and I'm one of those "hardcore" types both in POE and in other games. I agree that the devs should be more comprehensive about their explanation of the different mechanics of the game for newer players. This would probably solve a lot of your issues. I think there are criticisms coming from both new players and vets. However, those criticisms are vastly different. I dislike how crafting was gutted, although I know it's a base to add content for future leagues, and how I need to backtrack to find a rare on every t16 I run. Newer players dislike how "hard" the game is. I agree, it is difficult compared to POE, but the second I saw your gear I knew that it's your lack of knowledge about the systems in the game that is leading to you thinking the game is so unrealistically difficult. POE 2 reaches brand new audiences, and like I said, systems like attributes / gearing / currency should be explained with a lot more detail (they got the gems right, I think). Vets like me have no problems with that (after the chaos dmg endgame scaling nerf) whatsoever. Dodge rolling is not a required mechanic for the majority of the content depending on your build, and all of your comments about essentially killing skill-based mechanics so less skilled players have more fun is not something I want. Your other suggestion, which is rebalancing the game into 2 separate games, also adds a ton of work for the devs and makes the endgame / market non-viable in more ways than I can explain in a comment. POE is usually seen as a very in-depth game with a ton of mechanics that allows players to learn, experiment, exploit, test their abilities (or brain, again depending on the build), and then do it all again 3-4 months later from scratch. The absolute last thing I want is another POE 1 campaign, which for long-time players, contained little to no challenge or enjoyment and was just a rush to get to mapping. I know lots of people want a game that is similar to an interactive movie, but in my opinion, everything that made POE one of the greatest games ever made with one of the most dedicated communities of any game was the fact that in order to play it, or at the very least in order to "succeed," you must use your brain and learn how to overcome problems. Rewatching your Challenge vs. Fun tag, the reason you're beating your head against the wall against every boss is because you're a mercenary with <30% all res before map penalties, no movement boots, and a 1 damage stat line magic crossbow. Not because the bosses are too hard. There are tons and tons of games out there that cater to players who want to sit back and relax, POE 2 absolutely does not have to be one of them. Tip: disenchant rares/magics you don't use and you'll end up with tons of regals to make your gear rare (every rare disenchantment gives you a regal shard), salvage superiors or slotted items you don't use for artificer's orbs, upgrade your weapon or find a new one (vendors reset inventories every time you level up and will sell rares or better magics), throw a couple of those "useless" dmg % runes on there, hold on to any %movespeed boots you find, smash the bosses you thought were so stupidly hard. 10-15 mins at most. GGG should make these things clearer, and they've always had a hard time making the game understandable to new players. They do not need to make the game easier.
@Gunthrek 2 күн бұрын
You're certainly entitled to your opinion, same as me, but I pretty much disagree with everything you said here. We do agree on the lack of explanation in the game. It was supposed to be better than POE1, but seems only marginally so at this point. They definitely need a lot more in the way of tutorials to make the mechanics more clear if they don't want it to mystify new players like POE1 did. That said, I don't believe a lack of knowledge is the problem. My experience has been that dodge rolling is absolutely required if you don't want to get one shot by many of the enemies in the game, and not just bosses. A lot of the rares in Acts II and III have very strong abilities that can take you down to nearly dead, and then an unlucky subsequent strike by a minion takes you out. Many have suggested that my lack of movement speed is a problem, and I certainly agree, but the fact that I've literally found 3 items across five characters and two plus Acts that have that particular enhancement makes that an RNG problem, which isn't really something I can do anything about. Drops, vendors, nor crafting have yielded much in the way of movement speed upgrades. Without increased movement speed, dodge rolling becomes virtually the only way to avoid the devastating attacks of many of the enemies we're required to fight to progress, which means that reflexes become the default strategy for the game. That just shouldn't be the case in an RPG. Same with resistances: I almost never find rings with implicit resist from either drops or vendors, so I end up having to wait for a random item with resist, or the sparingly found artificer orbs, and even more sparingly found runes to buff my rez, and then accept the crappy secondary modifiers they come with because I need the resistance more. It's literally a moment of excitement when I finally find a sapphire or topaz ring because they come up so infrequently. Trust me: if I had consistent access to the rings and mats, I'd max out my rez asap, as that was a core tenet of the original game. You could buy basic resist gear from the magic vendor as early as the first few areas of Act I in that game, so it's frustrating that it's an RNG thing here. If I had a lot more artificer orbs drop for me, I'd have two slots in my weapon at all time with damage boosts galore, but since I almost always only have two or three and I need those to get basic resistance, I'm stuck with whatever I happen to pick up. I don't want any game to be an interactive movie, but there needs to be a balance that makes it so that general audiences can actually participate. Your points about my gear honestly fall on deaf ears, not because I think you're basic premise about good gear being required is wrong, but because I'm not running around with that gear by choice. It's what I've been forced to live with due to lack of gear opportunities and bad RNG. Lastly, I genuinely appreciate when people leave helpful tips, but I've been doing every bit of what you said there from pretty close to the beginning on all my characters and it's still resulting in a severe lack of currency. Perhaps your luck is much better and you're rolling in currency like Scrooge McDuck, but many of us are getting the short end of the RNG stick and it's making the game nearly impossible to play. As far as difficulty, that's a pure opinion thing, and I think it should be a fair bit easier.

It's an interesting opinion. I'm over 50 and also have issues with what most consider hardcore games. That being said POE2 is a game where I actually go to when I want a casual experience compared to many other games including almost any shooter. Sure you do need to dodge, but you can miss more than a few dodges IF you level up and gear up and build properly. So I feel like the dodge mechanic is a way to play the game at a hardcore level with minimal level and farming. That being said, if you have trouble with a boss, and instead go farm a map once or twice, get a couple pieces of gear, and a couple levels with the passives that go with them, and come back the boss is very simple at that point, miss every 3rd dodge? No problem. Just my opinion. This game right now is my mindless have fun game compared to harder more hardcore games for when I'm up for them. In addition I'm sitting at level 27, so just starting really, and I have one orange item, 3 yellow, and 2 blue items. I am not using Exalted Orbs until I'm higher level as with most games of this type upgrading items as you level is kind of a waste as you'll replace it within the hour. So I have 14 Exalted Orbs waiting for when I level up. I DO agree with you on the trials time. I didn't find them all that hard but I DID find them taking 30-45 minutes and one failure means you have to start over, that is NOT for a casual gamer.

Many of his points are valid and he does provide evidence like Regals not dropping throughout campaign. Not everyone has free time to play hours and hours because we have work to do in real life (or maybe some of you are better at gaming). Grow up and learn to listen to someone's opinion; you don't have to accept it but don't be salty and whiny like a six-year-old kid like some of the losers below. Learn to listen to constructive feedback. I am level 83 doing T13-14 maps. IMO, it's not as fun as D2 or PoE1. Maps are huge, rewards aren't exciting, and visual clarity is terrible especially when you are facing multiple rare mobs at the same time. Dodge roll is kind of bait because many times you could get away with random one-shots if you got movement boots. I don't mind having Soul-like elements in PoE, but I think the current state has too much of it. For those who enjoyed D2, we know this is not even close to D2 experience. If I want Soul-like experience, I'd go play Elden Ring, not PoE. Again, this is EA so GGG will listen to both sides of the story and I'm sure they will try their best to polish the game.
