The Outer Worlds - 8 Tips for Supernova Difficulty (Hardest Difficulty)

[@RizzRiderEUC]

Tip 1: Transition doors force an auto save bonus fact! fast traveling to your ship also forces a save, allowing you to auto save anywhere you need to, so long as you can fast travel from that location! Just find a spot (presumably before a big fight), fast travel to The Unreliable, and then load that save right up to pick up where you were

[@Joao-hf1qm]

I do rather if they put "just beds" as fallout 4 survival mode 2.0 to save the game. Was much better, than transitions doors or the ship.

[@demonicksavage1393]

Best tip I've seen so far, good looking out!

Not bad tips, however I went about the game in supernova difficulty with a completely different play style. Long gun/sneak build, mainly using hunting rifles, then sniper rifle then pink slip and shotguns the entire game solo. You invest in perks that help you out while your alone, you play the game slowly as if on legendary halo. Every group of enemies have what I like to call a recall point, you shoot at one take him out and retreat until the rest run away. Now this doesn’t always work if in an enclosed area that’s what the shotgun and TD is for. Adding a couple point is dodge helps for the final boss fight as well. All in all, sneak 100/ long gun 100, lock pick 100 the others you can do with as you please. Fun game, but easy.

[@liesdamnlies3372]

@trueshadow64 Probably not. It's easier to use a Deadeye Mk II as much as possible with a suppressor, corrosive (possibly even keep copies for plasma and shock as well), and a super scope. Get a high long guns skill, keep tinkering, and using the bullet time thing you'll eventually be able to snipe six people easily in one go. Wiping-out entire groups of guards and marauders is easy, especially if you pay attention to where everyone is and is looking so you kill them in an ideal order.

[@TheOrplaya86]

@trueshadow64 A lot of fights i could kill several enemies before they got close enough. To answer your question though, no, it was not worth it.

[@ISEESPACEMONKEYS00]

I went through super Nova without companion s and I found it easier.

[@SlyBoogie]

LadyBoy Do you need to have health regeneration to play a supernova sniper?

[@thegreatestfailure9208]

Yeah I took the first one at edgewater but when she died I just kinda let her stay dead haha rip

[@zc6891]

Same. I'm currently working on a stealth sniper on Supernova and having companions just increases the time and effort you put in. Mainly want to max intelligence and perception while dropping charm and putting that one extra point on temperament. Do not use heavy armor as it will decrease your bonus damage for sneak attacks and focus on crit damage and TTD perks. End game I can usually take out a whole group of enemies before they even start coming after me. Hope this helps someone 👍

[@brotherrabbit5525]

The perk that brings your companion back to life is a must. Ive used it more than once. Also Pav and the SAM are the best companions. Their knockdown effect is super clutch. Set your companions to defensive, ranged and far its less of a chance they will die. Give Pav an N-ray weapon SAM comes stock with corrosive you carry whatever. Fast traveling to your ship will auto save as well.

[@ismathem]

I just started my first playthrough on Supernova and so far it's okay. Very weird though to die and having to get back an hour

[@christopherbradley7149]

Dom Noah Yeah I wish you could leave that out, it’s a dumb mechanic Like the video says there are ways around it, more than one in fact Another is to fast travel to your ship. It will auto save just before you travel, so if you load the save you just made, it’s a quick save with 2 loading screens

[@conkerlive101]

@@christopherbradley7149 Thanks bb

[@conflictedtexan4379]

I beat it today on my first playthrough the biggest Issue I had was the of course difficulty setting where you Can't fast travel. So back tracking is going to your kryptonite. Especially on Monarch.

[@solaireofludomedia1323]

Daniel Maynard If you follow the Board Route you can skip all Monarch by killing Sanjar and Graham and then going to Hiram

[@Glacier_Silverstrike]

Tip 1 leave your companions on the ship until tartarus(If you have a high charm then you won't need them at tartarus either) Tip 2 Eat drink and sleep You can die and will take stat penalties. Tip 3 speed run it Get to the ship, talk to Thompson, get Max's book, add him to the crew for the hack bonus, turn the power off to edgewater l, take their power relay, fast travel ro your ship. Go to the groundbreaker,grab the shrowd from your room. Then steal the seal from the safe in glades room. (Stand beside it TTD lock pick steal, fast travel while in TTD, go to board guy on the groundbreaker offer to turn in Phineas give him his seal. Go to Bezanthum, begin to steal from the secretary run past the door to your left and go behind the plant he will chase you and unlock the door go in there use the computer. Go steal the chemical from the lab get the ID off the gaurd by the stairs you can steal it. Choose the 32% option. Go to Phineas. Tell him about the board being after him. Hack his computer. Go to the hope skip it using Ada. Go to Phineas' lab avoid getting seen close the door click the pig use the computer get the gun and the navi key. Now get your Persuade to 60 and have felix with the Prrsuade skill. Also have your hack to 80 and lock pick to 100. Armor and skills count. Make sure to have the sprint speed perk. Go to Tarturus jump the boxes, lockpick the door to the left use the elevator, get spoken to once jump on the lift and over the wall use the elevator make it to the last elevator. Now either charm The board lady or lockpick the door and hack the computer for 80 or 100. If its 80 shot the auto and run for your life as the drone kill it. Done. This is from memory it maybe missing stuff.

[@kevinhammond2361]

I find these tips work best for the smoothest supernova run: (1) focus on Heavy Weapons - flamethrower with silencer and good stealth ability is deadly, but just as good is using a variety of Plasma Launchers (plasma, electric, corrosive) - the splash effect is great for hitting multiple enemies at once (2) don't bother with Companions... NEVER even recruit one - it boosts a key level 2 perk by +5 more for every ability (3) it's easier to be evil early on - if you side with the Board you can get to Byzantium much quicker, and by acting in the movie audition, you can get a deadly Plasma Rifle 2.0 early in the game, plus steal a Grenade Launcher 2 from the weapons shop there. You can always change your mind and side with Phineas when the Adjutant asks you to plant the tracking signal on Phineas' lab (4) it helps a little if you choose the Bartender occupation during character build - it boosts drink effects by +3% which delays you getting thirsty or tired (5) don't do a Melee build for Supernova. You'll wind up getting maimed by Canids, higher chance of concussions, etc. all of which basically send you all the way back to your ship to sleep off the effect, which is insanely tedious

[@OMalleyTheMaggot]

The Supernova difficulty in the game was so atrociously implemented. To be clear, I'm a big fan of these types of games. I love the survival aspect. I loved how hardcore mode in New Vegas made ammo have weight so you couldnt carry around a literal arsenal with you at all times. I liked the food, drink and sleep management. I even liked I companion perma-death. But this? This is nothing but an annoying, tedious slog. First of all the food, water, and sleep drains are absurd. Your hunger bar can still be 90% full and you still suffer the "minor" effects of stage one dehydration/starvation/sleep deprivation. It forces you to stop what you are doing WAY too often, far more than New Vegas ever did. Not to mention the fact that you can only sleep in the bed on the unreliable serves no purpose other than making the game more tedious. There are beds all over the fucking place, many of which are abandoned. Why the FUCK can't I just sleep in those? And dont say because it's dangerous when you potentially have companions watching your back. Even then, New Vegas let you sleep anywhere but there was still a risk of roaming enemies stumbling upon you while you did. This would have been fine, but no, make us trek all the way back to the fucking unreliable every 15 minutes if we dont want to be gimped. And the saving restriction, the FUCKING saving restriction. I get that you can transition between loading areas to rig it, but this still adds absolutely NOTHING to the game besides staring at loading screens 150% more often than you otherwise would. Your companions are also far too frail to have perma-death be a thing. I guess it might add some depth to some to find yourself running away from combat not for your own self preservation but because you don't want your dumbass companion to die, but to me this once again makes the game tedious (and basically forces you into a stealth, sniper, or pacifist role if you dont want your companions getting mulched) I liked The Outer Worlds, but my god was supernova difficulty a massive disappointment. I didnt even get off Terra II before going "fuck this"

[@kevinhammond2361]

Am I right in saying that even if you have the key to the Fallbrook Domicile, you can't sleep in "your own" bed there? That makes getting in there really pointless even in Supernova. What they could have done is add a quest for at least one city per Region, that once completed grants you a bedroom you can sleep in.

[@OMalleyTheMaggot]

@@kevinhammond2361 Thats still just doubling the amount of load screens you have to stare at tho

[@josephcalabrese6337]

Everything you said makes sense. However I wish to counter argue with a worse alternative. You wanna know what's worse than looking at loading screens?...Game Crashes! Going back to Fallout: New Vegas, There was lots of loading screens. The Xbox 360 console I used to have load every damn time I traveled to places. And I hated it back then. But I am a patient man. So I just did other things while the game was loading. Look at my phone. My laptop. Eat a snack. Read a book. Whatever. I used to play Fallout 4 for years before I got into The Outer Worlds. (On the Xbox One console. I'm an Xbox player.) And I can not tell you how many times I have had to replay quests because the game would freeze up. Or how many times I had to rebuild my settlements and character builds because of more freezing. You get that annoying high pitched "EHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE-" computer sound before the screen goes black and your back at the Xbox home menu. Then I would have to wait about 10 minutes of 3 loading screens for the console to get back to where I last saved. I can't even explore the downtown Boston area of the world map because I am afraid of crashing the game! Not to mention all the DLC's and Creation Club Content and free community mods don't help either. So right now. As I am playing The Outer Worlds a second time, I'm starting to like Loading screens. Because AT LEAST I know the game will not crash on me! And because The Outer Worlds has simpler graphics than Fallout 4, The load screen waiting is not so bad. In comparison. Even the two DLC's for the Outer Worlds have not caused the game to crash so badly for me. In conclusion: Unless your game is crashing all the time, Load screens are a necessary evil.

[@theykeeponrising]

Don't use companions for super nova until you unlock the resurrection talent. Enemies die pretty easily provided you use an element they are weak to (plasma for most organics, shock for robots, corrosive for mantis). I have all the lone wolf talents and just melt everything without much effort.

Not hard at all. My first run was supernova only. I enjoyed seeing these random people wanting to join me only to die in their very first fight.

[@JasonEkonomakos]

I enjoyed everything about Supernova besides the companion behaviour. Even changing their behaviour had them dying so often it was just no fun

[@ismathem]

Keep them far away from you and change the behavior to passive. That works because the enemy focus on you and will ignore your companions. It's a lot tougher though because you will have to do fight by yourself

[@droppin4075]

You can also set them to defensive and they will ignore and be ignored by enemies until you order them to attack

[@ThePortjumper]

how do you keep your companions from dying early game? That's the only problem I've run into.

Change your companion behavior

@@BeholderTv Yeah that helped a lot, thank you. Just figured that out a few minutes ago, lol. Thanks anyways.

[@aliasofanalias7448]

Does that help? I assume you mean set them to far and passive? I never thought of that. I'm really not struggling with this difficulty but my companions really are!

[@ismathem]

Ya. Basically until you get better weapons and armor, as well as leadership skills, do not make them fight. Do all the work yourself until they level up

[@SpectreStatus]

Forget combat, just go stealth. Very high Intelligence with very high dialogue also. You don't have to worry about companions dying because you won't really be fighting, lol. Seriously, go the pacifist route. You'd be surprised what you can accomplish without violence. ;)

[@deadstar1483]

Seems extremely effective, yet boring as I suffer from bloodlust.. I'll just go with a sneaky sniper, TTD, and lonewolf build.. only using companions in more passive areas (given I know I won't be fighting) for those extra skill buffs

[@TheGeem1]

Wish they would have Made an Hardcore Mode Like in nv which is Split from the difficulty.

[@ZombieATAT]

Not sure if it's helpful for supernova mode but I found a big food stash and It's kept my inhaler stocked up early on. At the botanical research facility there's about 40+ mock apples. On the floor under trees (not stealing) and in a small storage room near the campfire (must be stolen). A guard does enter the storage.

[@notyourfriend4883]

Hover over a drink and if is says something like sugary drink it will make your thirst meter go up things like soda, juice punch and water work

[@Detective_Bonghits]

Early top for supernova 1: is to get all exp in early game you can get your grubby hands on because you want those stat perks like inhaler healing companions early. And if you spec into that square one you can spend extra points as you see fit. I also recommend good ol'fashioned minmaxing. Dont throw points around here and there be a specialist. This opens up room to take on some flaws that might hinder you entirely otherwise. Lastly. It only limits autosaves. Not manual. Manual save often

[@AntonioReyes-iq4fh]

[@kevinhammond2361]

In a lot of battles once I get to the start where I'll start the ambush, I'll eat a 200% regeneration and a 25% base health, and then in my inhaler I'll have the things I think I might need if things get hairy - maybe an armor boost and a TTD regen boost, or body + mind. Boosting body or mind (depending on if you're a melee or ranged fighter) before any tough battles is very helpful.

[@freeman1014]

i found that being a few levels higher than an enemy makes it slightly easier and dont take the flaw that makes you scared of automacanicals if you wanna use sam make sure you have companions armor as high as you can afford of your level and get the health and armor perks for them first

[@iwhbydbadbmotf8915]

You can manipulate the enemies AI in some places. For example, when finding Zoe, if you get spotted, run away and hide. When the enemies stop searching and start running back they don't seem to attack you until they've returned to their original spawn area.

[@prodrenex]

Been watching your videos for ages, only just realised I've not subbed! Had to rectify that

[@carrot708]

Stealth and dialogue OP in Supernova. Also do every quest that's not reliant on combat. You can skip any and every sidequest you find too hard with the exception of the ones needed to stop the broadcast which are all pretty easy with decent gear. But do all the "legwork/talking to people" easier sidequests. You ideally want to be level 20 at least at the end so that you can either do a "Talk to avoid the boss fight" respec or a "Pick and hack the terminal" respec. Unless you want to fight the final boss plus drones fair and square on Supernova, which is hardcore

Yeah i started supernova and quit it because its dumb. Thats kinda the concenses of players. The no quicksaveing fources redoing diologs over and over again and ruins the fun of reading between the lines of options and takes away the moment to moment gameplay when its the 6th attempt on this hour streach on content. The survival meeters are neat but they are so over bearing. Like really game, 75% hunger gives a status effect? That's bullshit. And the lack of quicksaves only exaggerates lack of polish. No game thats large, complex, and varied could ever be polished to perfection. And tighting of difficulty only exposes the issues.

[@subsume7904]

@@subsume7904 i think you misread my statement. I said a game large and complex and varied is near impossable to polish and that the lack of quicksaves removes the ability of a player to brute force past issues. Fromsoft are able to remove quicksaves because of the polish and moderate scope of the game. But a bethesda style rpg with a large open world, stealth, crafting, diolog options, factions, lockpicking, and more. There will be shortcomeings in some or all of thoes mechanics.

I've tried all the tips for keeping them alive short of making them completely passive in a fight(which almost completely negates one aspect of their utility) but they die way too quickly.

[@keo8380]

you can go on your own yes. And there are perks that gives you more dmg when you travel alone.

[@kanyewest6539]

supernova so far isnt *too hard*. i wish they gave us a quicksave item that costs money bc i have lost some valuable time, but i also quickly learned to prepare well and fight w/ guerilla tactics. i already assumed companions would die asap, so im leaving them on the ship, but i might bring one in later. tbh im not a fan of any of them except maybe the bot, but i dont have him yet.

thb i wish companions used the inhaler on their own = /

[@koolz765]

played super nova all day yesterday. silent sniper with dead eye assault rifle and euthinasia kit. lone wolf. only problem i had was money....until i duplicated abunch of n-mags and sold them. pry going to finish it after work. its not really that hard....just takes time and being careful

[@deadstar1483]

Now that sounds like a build, I had close to the same idea.. I think I'll only bring companions in for skill buffs in passive areas (somewhere I know I won't be fighting)

[@stoneystone6032]

Silly games like this I really don't like having to manage eating and sleeping and drinking I wish there was just a way to make it harder for combat wise at least because hard isn't difficult enough once you get the science hammer the games ruined

[@Eastonfection]

STONEY STONE603 trust me, supernova won’t make the prismatic hammer any less busted. I breezed through supernova (first and last playthrough of this POS), even one-shot the final boss with it. Supernova in this game just tacks on poorly thought out/annoying mechanics. It was still the easiest game I’ve played in years.

[@tacosquid8861]

Do the supernova and hard trophies stack?

[@pirate135246]

how do i unlock the bed on supernova? don't have access to it rn

[@bigbeatmanifesto6517]

There is a bed opposite the workbench on your ship, between two shelving units. It has a green cover

you simply must equip them with different item to remove helmet.

@@thecookies6109 So we can't remove it without equipping other one?!? Feels so dumb.

You can go to the settings and turn companion helmets appearance off.

[@kennygroth4938]

Just started the game. I've never really liked the sleep/eat/etc gameplay mechanics.. well really the idea of "realism" in video games is almost never good and almost always gimmicky. Hard mode is great though

[@Gablablin]

Maybe it's just not for you?

[@bigbeatmanifesto6517]

This game is alot to take in initially

[@miketsaganos]

Will earning the supernova trophy apply to the hard trophy as well?

[@Maka91Productions]

Difficulty achievements do stack.

[@fhm4]

gameranx released a video on general tips that game doesn't tell you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oX-UXoWOl5l2Zqc the one at 2:58 says if you fast travel to your ship. The game will auto save on the location you left from. So you can use this to create a temporary save out in the field.

[@leeviheiskanen1271]

Does companions death affect other companions ?

[@Wanderingwalker-ke6mg]

Leevi Heiskanen I’d imagine it’d be referenced by the crew but no actual negative effects.. maybe it’ll be linked to a flaw tho?

Probably 20-30 hours depending on what difficulty you play on and how many of the side missions you complete.

game seems like broken shit to me. can someone explain something. The middle bar below my health bar is water, right? I just drank 5 waters it didn't move, it's still nearly run out and when it does i just start losing health. I am lacking the patience required for this fucking shitty game. this difficulty seems like it was tacked on in the last 5 weeks with no thought behind any of it.

Not that hard
