Been really enjoying it so far.

My early game experience is that driller is both the strongest class, and the most efficient at farming resources for permanent upgrades.

Really? I've honestly hated driller so far and think he's the weakest lol

Mining resources gives you XP, and lets you buy upgrades between missions. I just run around ignoring bugs and mine all the resources, throwing upgrades into sludge pump and other weapons that will kill stuff following me.

In-between stages I'm usually able to buy 4-6 upgrades, and by the end I'm dealing way more damage than I can as any other classes. Only downside is that I often end stages early by accident because I can trigger the elite pretty fast, and he dies from trying to follow me through my sludge.

I like the game and the DRG theme, but I'm not too big on how to (properly) unlock your weapons, it's just a bit too convoluted for no reason.

Unlocking the overclocks is just an unnecessary pain in the ass. Otherwise good game.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah, lots of weapons you can to unlock, then level each to 12 once, before you can overclock.
