I dunno man I feel the like Corrupters are pretty intimidating. Granted they aren't that hard to take them down, but that first time you run into a big group of them... Sheesh.

I'm partial to Behemoth floating the rocks around him and slamming it to the ground.
Please no. Infamous actually has the best "climb anything that makes sense" traversal. By all means copy that and not the climb whatever as in zelda
They're pretty fast. I love using traps and tripwires against them.

Just went into my first cauldron
. Everything was going fine and smoothly until I reach
. That thing wrecked me. I need a more thought out approach.

tfw you think you're fighting one stalker but you're actually surrounded by three. Some straight up Predator shit.

Yup stalker fights are pretty fun
I use that when I'm clearing bandit camps or just fighting humans in general because they use arrows against you

Priority Uno for me when encountering them is disabling their arms, which provide both their extremely potent offensive and defensive maneuvers. Without their force shield or homing cannons they are a lot less dangerous.

You know these actually sound good
XI Cauldron was kind of a mess, atleast the first half
Anyways, with that, I finished all the Cauldrons and Tallnecks.... and I'm still at the lvl 15 story mission lol
why oh why that amount of human enemies? Like, humans are the worst part of the game.
Atleast it had somewhat of a purpose, because the second part with the Stalkers are awesome, same with the finale with the humans getting their arses kicked, but even that part had human enemies when you're escaping the tunnels.

That was my last Cauldron as well and I liked that it changed things up, tbh. It was unexpected.

Vanashas abs are awesome!
LOL, yea, they're impressive. She's an awesome character. I wanted more of her.
ah heres my snapjaw and longlegs (and a couple of others I forgot) override, clearly I should have had them a while ago since this cauldron was at the start of this zone and I completely missed it lol.
only 4 cauldrons total? thats a shame, they are great.

I just want giant robot spiders.
LOTS of spiders.
There is a Rockbreaker spawn near
If you haven't done the
quest yet, then there is one over there as well.

I just hope they don't take every criticism and turn horizon 2 into killzone 3, which was a good game but a step down from kz2
That would be a great addition. My favorite aspect of the game is dismantling robots, if the crafting system only revolved around blowing off components and not just looting the corpse that'd be way better. I know they do this stuff for like blaze, but it should have been for *all* crafting materials. Only thing left on the body should be like metal scraps and maybe some common materials like wire.
Make it so there's rarer versions of the machines where they have specialized components that you have to tear off to obtain.
There's one as part of an errand/side quest right outside of Meridian (the desert side)

Platinum obtained. 60hs for main game, side quest and errands. The rest was for collectibles, half of corrupted zones, and half of the hunting grounds.
I still have some audios and texts here and there left, will explore and fight some machines while I wait for Andromeda.
I'll save the replay for when I have a 4K TV.

New ps4 fw is out with custom wallpapers... That will come in handy with Horizon's screenshot galore.
had so many shards that I went ahead and just bought the machine hearts I needed for the shadow warbow and shadow ropecaster, bought both weapons and still have 2k shards left to make ammo and whatnot. Dunno how some people are always low on shards
Also finally this warbow ammo uses all the shit I have a ton of to make ammo.
Did a lot of stuff today, a few sidequests and errands, tallneck, cauldron, a couple of main quests
, still feels like I have a ton left, game is truly massive.
When I went to buy the warbow, the vendor is at a quarry with a sidequest, I believe ive heard you peeps say its a good one?

You get more arrows to use when you get better versions of the bows. Add that to damage mods and you'll be set
Thanks, why can't I add the very rare mod ? I have spots but it does not show up. It's in my inventory, but at the crafting menu it's not there to select.
With weapons and armor, should I buy them or wait till I find or get them?
different mods go on different weapons
Hi guys - just to be perfectly clear, Sony owns the rights for this game, and this will almost certainly remain a PS4 exclusive right?
I'm a PC gamer primarily, been watching some Twitch content of this game and and this might be the game that tips me over to buying a PS4 with all the other great exclusives on the platform.

Course it is. Its their own studio.
Ahh ok got it. Probably purple mods for purple weapons.
So do you get new rare and very rare weapons given to you? Or do I need to buy it? Is there a trophy for crafting all upgrades for pouches etc ?

Sony owns the shit out of this game.
You must bow down (or just buy a PS4) to play it.
They almost never publish a game without getting rights to IP. They own the studio that makes it.

Combovers don't work when there is no hair
Made by a first party studio, so yes, PS4 exclusive.

Spiders are in my list of "robot animals I'd like to see in HZD 2".
- Stealth spiders with trapping abilities and crazy vertical locomotion, to fight in forests.
- Turtle/Beetle/Armadillo/Ankylosaurus mix. Amphibious, near-impervious armour with active shields, heavily weaponized.
- Ants. Small, but swarming. Always in groups of dozens.
- Dragonfly/hornet mix. Different kind of flying, hovering.
- Centipede/snake mix.
The Lodge Blast Sling is a beast. Really fun weapon to use! I didn't a blast sling up until now and I was going to continue to play without using one. Glad I didn't.
I mixed the sticky bomb (timed) shot on a scrapper with a couple of the proximity bombs on the ground. The timing couldn't be better. Just as he was lunging at me his sticky bomb went off and he triggered the proximity bombs. Major overkill but it looked incredible. The amount of times I've had a charging machine rush me only to explode into a ball of scrap flying towards me.. Most of them you couldn't script to look as cool but yet its all dynamic.
