I can't play any this weekend but I should be around more next week. Work is finally starting to slow down. I'm terrible about setting Steam to away, so just message me and if I am on I'll rob some people.
Kicks for all! One thing I hate trying to play with pubs: join a game shoot a few people get kicked, join a heist almost done get kicked, join a lobby get kicked. XP is nice but I feel it is super inflated, 200k will get you a full level until you are pretty high lvl. Squads of shields.
I had to cut out early. I got drunk in anticipation of bank-robbin', only for major server-joining issues, sound glitching, and voice chat problems to kill my enthusiasm pretty quickly.
Overkill makes a good game, but damn they really need to kill some of these bugs, bad.
I am in a bit of shock right now. I just solo stealthed Framing Frame Pro Overkill. 9 paintings, no alarms, no cops on day 2, all the gold on day 3. In total, took just under an hour.
17 bags; 9 cash, 8 gold.
Even got a new mask out of it.
Now it is 4:30 in the morning and I don't even know if I can get to sleep. That. was. amazing.
Don't feel behind or slacky, Just come rob people with me :-) I will be happy to show you all the of the intricacies and details of the levels I know. I've got Four Stores, Jewelry Store, and Framing Frame down. Rats too but by nature impossible to stealth. Great for farming EXP though.
My next goal is solo stealth a bank. That will then set me up to solo Firestarter. Then I'll be confident enough to Diamond Store. I really just comes down to knowing the game. It is easy to shoot a guard and figure out you need to answer the pager, the devil is in the details like knowing how to tell if there are 5 or 6 guards on a level and that changing the order of things once you know. Doing certain levels are possible without certain perks (namely smooth talker and dominator) but 100x easier with.
I am REALLY happy with my build. I'll be happy to share it if anyone is interested. As a 90 I believe I have 12 points left, 8 of them will go towards my ECMs delaying pagers. Then I'll unlock Technician to get mines and the last 3 probably the 3 1st level technician unlocks. The one thing I lack is the ability to open safes quickly (picking or C4) so Ukrainian Job I have to find a group running if I feel like farming cards.
I tried to rob with you last night but you wouldn't reply.....
Sorry about that I saw your message too late. Not sure if I was concentrating on not setting off an alarm or if it was when I had stepped afk for dinner. Maybe tonight? I'll be on a bit later (8ish PST) or tomorrow 6ish PST.
Any thoughts on what you would like to do? Need money, experience, or cards?
I always need experience. I have been living la vida Firestarter lately. Need to stealth the FBI office eventually. Thinking of respecing back to enforc/tech. Ironman + 50% more armor, the temptation!
Rats has gotten really boring except for that 290k xp in Pro-OK.
And Framing frames solo is awesome, except when you get to the end and the vault is in a bad spot so you cant finish :/
Saturday night I should be free. I'll post when I have more definite times.
What do you mean bad spot? I've had it in the bedroom and all the way down stairs in off of the main living room and in both of these locations it was possible to turn the lasers off, bolt into the vault, grab a bag and make it out before they turned back on, repeat 8 times for glory.
I know there is one other place in the house I've seen the vault, but haven't had the chance to try to solo it yet.
The first time I made it that far I didn't expect to so I did some experimenting. Hit the lasers and then sprint to the vault but not go in. Counted the seconds from the time I got there until the lasers came on. Had about 3-4 seconds. I figured that was enough time so I went for it. Has worked out every time.
I believe I have a perk that makes me sprint fast, that may be the limiting factor also.

How did the robbin go?

I received my first infamous item today, Golden Mask Material.
Perfect. Used it along with my mask from last night (first solo stealth FF above) to make an homage to #Hats:
Put it on and ran through it again. Perfect 9 paintings again!
