Set a marker on it. You can use your visor and see how far away it is. I think zipline range is 300m max
Honestly. There's not way that this game could be more "actual" than it currently is. The game looks f****ng awesome on PS4. Can't imagine much improvement on the PC version. Higher FPS and resolution, maybe?. But, considering the type of game it is and the kind of environments it shows, an improvement in the texture set or the polygonal count, for instance, won't be very noticeable, honestly.
Wish someone would compile all the emails so I don't have to read them on my TV... It's straining.
I beat the game about an hour ago. Had to go and hug my mom.
Then took a drive to get some fresh air. Not going to lie - I was tearing up and straight up crying on and off during that final hour or so.
One of the most intriguing and amazing games I've ever played. Loved the story concepts at play. The performances were (mostly) incredible.
The soundtrack and how things wrap up were also fantastically done.

about that misdion: left some cargo on my truck while I went into a mule camp. At some point I got a message that I was to far away from my cargo and now it is gone.
Kinda sucks. Failed 2 missions because of that.
They can handle it, but it is still annoying to drive through.
And there are new missions for those areas.
Down from the weatherstation there is also timefall and BTs.. 😕
Have to check out the new trucks. I can build them now.
Playstation on twitter and facebook (Australia not sure if US), posted a pretty big spoiler gif, pretty pissed off at them tbh.
Or 350m once upgraded with 240 chem + 480 sp.alloy
And using the range finder on your visor [L1+R3 for zoom] is a decent way to gauge if you're in range. If you look at Other deployed zips while holding the PCC2 (set to zipline) in your hand, it will show you if you're making a connection and the range of the other ziplines in view.
Don't see anything. Do you mean the hologram? Because thats not really a spoiler. Not at all related to the story.
Zipping is the definitely the key to maximum efficiency, but I also built most of the roads in the map which allows me to easily drive across the map for the deliveries which require lots of cargo that's impossible to do on foot. These deliveries usually give out a lot of likes and levels up the facilities faster.
Didn't know you can extend the range by upgrading it. Thanks
When you hold the line ready to place it, it will show any lines within range. Blue line = connection, red = obstructed.
Don't place a connecting piece unless you see a blue line.
Exception:
If you don't see a line, you can look toward the piece you want to connect to while you're holding ready to place, and it will show how far away you are. Max range is 300m, but if you upgrade to lvl2 you gain an extra 50m.
So sometimes you can upgrade a piece instead of moving closer, if it helps more.
Go quickly as is reasonable through ep2. Episode 3 is where the game opens wiiiiiiiide and swallows you whole 😉💀
Did anyone find out if two level 2 zips can share their range to bring it up to 400? Seems like they should.
Unfortunately it wont show you obstructions at the extended range (since it doesn't draw the line passed 300m until one tower within range is upgraded), which has bit me in the ass a few times. So plan accordingly.
Also protip (that i wish i learned way sooner), only tree trunks count as obstuctions. You can zip though almost any forest provided you can can find a path free of tree-trunks. Makes zipping through those sections even more fun too!
Lads.
Zipelines.
I didn't know... I really didn't. Made my own zipline network and it's amazing.

I'm a little disappointed the Heartman cutscene wasn't done in real time. Or if it was, goddamn those 40 minutes flew by.
I thought it showed a small red cross for this? Need to double check...
It doesn't draw the line unless you're connecting to something that is ALREADY upgrade. If you've got two level 1 towers, move passed 300m and the line disappears.
Yep. hold out the zipline. And look back at the one you want to connect to. And it'll have the meter gauge by it. So you can keep walking back (make sure not to fall of a cliff. LMAO) to see how far you can go before you put it down.
It was real time.
Are you sure? I've seen a red line that's 310m. Level 1 both sides. This was when trying to place the line.
RDR2 took a lot more time and people to make than Death Stranding though
Yeah. It was the first time a video game gave me the feeling of slowly going insane. I went from shouting at the tv to laughing and almost crying. I couldn't believe what I was experiencing.
They mean if you moving beyond 300m to place the tower that will BECOME the 350 anchor, when viewing the 300m one you'll be connecting to, past 300m it won't show a line and if it's ambiguous whether the connection might be slightly obstructed, there's no way to tell beyond placing it to find out.
What I meant was, when looking at a lvl1 zip line form +300, if it was obstructed I thought a little red cross appeared by the meter distance.
It does not, just checked, must have been thinking of something else.
I'm losing all sense of time in this game, appropriately so I guess.
You might have been linking to one that was already upgraded, maybe? In that case, the line will draw out to 350m and still show the red X's for obstructions.
Just tested it, 350m is indeed max, does not matter if both towers are upgraded or not.
Nah, level 3 is just increased timefall resistance. Says on right hand side of screen what upgrades do
Only because of the scale, cities full of people and the wildlife.
Charactermodels are way better in DS and the world itself looks a tad better in DS aswell imo but that's only because the world is almost empty.
So i would concur that RDR2 looks better as a whole package but DS has parts that are even better looking.
No, I wasn't thinking of the same X that appears in between you and the tower. I was thinking of a small x literally on the meter sign which never existed at all. Not sure why I thought it did...
Just got to chapter 9. Still enjoying the game.
Wish they made zip lines like the did the auto pavers, where the route is already predetermined. As of right now there are so many shit zip line routes on my game from other players that are totally useless to me, not to mention other structures that are pointlessly placed.
Hopefully if there is a part 2 they refine the building make it more liner in terms of where they can be placed.

But I did that and probably rested there afterwards even and still nothing. Is it only in that facility anyway or everywhere?
That must be it then. I probably don't even have 3 stars there yet.
Platinum'd it last night. 86 hours. Would've been sooner had I realised the Legend of Legends rank for standard orders can only be achieved on Hard mode!
One of the few games I've carried on playing post review period, and even though it's finished, I want to go back and do more. Brilliant game.

You can dismantle from your game those you don't like. But that may be a crappy solution, I haven't got to that part yet, I'm just before, so I don't know if traversing all the environment just for that would be worth it.
How did you manage to get the platinum in 86 hours only? I read you need at least 135 hours or so.
Did the main story in just under 40 with a few side missions thrown in, and focused on getting the facilities leveled up afterward. Put down a shitton of zip lines, and hammered through every other trophy. Used a map for the memory chips.
After you do the Order For Sam to bring some up to the distribution center, you'll get an email from him saying he send some to your room. I don't know what triggers the email though.
Yeah this is the way I see it.
RDR2s strengths relative to DS are the handcrafted nature of the world, the very showy lighting system and the incredible LoD. DS has better terrain geometry and better character models. To me, RDR2 is a masterclass of current gen tech, whereas some aspects of DS feel like glimpses of what I expect next gen, in particular the terrain modelling. It really is a noticible step above RDR2 and pretty much any other open world game in this regard. On balance, I would put DS above RDR2 in terms of graphics, but RDR2 just has such a well implimented lighting system.
It is worth just dismantling othe player zipline and setting up your own fir the most part.
Most I've seen are not very well placed. You should be climbing peaks and placing them as high as you can and as close to max range as possible, roo many in see at lower points with nowhere near max range between them. They tend to just clutter and confuse, even if the occasional one or two might work out.
Each place has a limit on how much materials it can hold. The more stars you get by delivering stuff to them raises the limit. So recycling more materials than can't be stored results in you basically throwing the excess away. I don't remember if there's a way to check how full it is. The UI menus are the worst :/
