Horizon: Zero Dawn (Now Out!)

hard mode was always there. i never played on normal mode but hard mode felt pretty easy.

very hard is slightly more difficult.

ultra hard (new) has much more aggressive enemies, resources cost more as well. i think the enemies hit harder and have more hp but im not sure

torn between the adept Hunter bow and the sharpshot.

Reason being, with the hb, I can get my most common arrow damage up big time. Fire arrows dont really play a big deal because i have triple shot anyway. everything i hit is gonna be burning.

but the adept sharpshot, I can really hit hard. I have good damage modifications, as well as tear.

its really a question of common arrow damage going up or being able to hit like a truck when the time is right. I have a lot of wire, and I do use the s.s quite a bit.

thoughts?

Puts up Tekken 7 and IJ2…

I’M MOTIVATED!!!
MACHINES ARE ABOUT TO DIE!!

Trying to jump into this after I finish dying light and like my third run through of black flag. This will be my single player time until destiny 2 drops.

Just reminded me that I need finish my 1st run of Black Flag on PS4!!

ah good ol horizon. I have yet to do a complete playthrough of NG+ yet. I want to run a slingshot only run though. But I fear stormbirds, bitchhawks and mobile enemies will be a pain.

even on ultrahard you can cheese your way to victory. this is supposed to be a big battle, this enemy is one of the strongest in the game, right before key plot details. I feel like Aloy is too strong in the game imo. Between shield weaver (I don’t use it), overriding, traps that enemies don’t see and corruption arrows its pretty easy to not risk anything. I kinda hope gg nerfs a lot of stuff in the game in the future

I never used corruption effects before. Nor have I even got the shield weaver armor yet. I just use the rope caster, sling shots. Rinse and repeat.

Everytime I see this game in motion I’m still impressed with how beautiful it is. Can’t wait to jump into it.

fair enough. The options are still there. I never actually used the ropecaster. people say its good. I have the shadow one but i like using the war bow, sharpshot and the tripcaster

It’s pretty good. Don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

Rope Caster>>>>>Majority of other weapons. It Mobility limiters are always top tier.

Tie em’ down, lash the others around, 1 less machine to deal with it…on the wall…

I just use override to make everyone else do all my work lol.

But for damage, freeze plus tripleshot sharpshot is ridiculous. when you get the right damage mods especially.

against a fire bellowback:
freeze
triple shot (against that sack thing)
freeze
tripleshot
dead

It is. It’s nice when you’re outnumbered and lash one down then deal with the others. How I dealt with the corrupted RB’s.

Funny enough, I’ve only used the overrides for mounts. Oh and that one challenge where overriding two sawtooths to fight the TJ.

You guys are talking about how easy this game is, but I died countless times. I remember getting that Shield Weaver armor. Once I saw what it does, I was fucking up every machine I came across. Just to get it around that I’M THE THUNDERJAW NOW!

Seriously, that motherfucker killed me at least 20 times the first time I ran into him. That day, the Ropecaster and I became inseparable.

I dont think the game is all that easy. Its not the hardest, but its not easy either. I died plenty of times.

I’d say it’s average when it comes to difficulty. I mean granted, I know how to play the game now so the difficulty decreases with that.

Yea I’m still undecided on if the random loot attachments where a good idea…some of them are so fucking OP and if you get a lucky drop and attach it to the right weapon it can trivialize a lot of the game.
