I feel like I'm taking crazy pills

I run a Constructor build and an Outlander build. I alternate between them. Obviously, Outlander is more suited to certain missions, and Constructor others. The problem is that you don't know the mission until you load in. So:

Start off as Teddy Outlander build in Ventures. No constructors and people are off farming, so Ride the Lightning fails thanks to smashers. Load into another. Evacuate the Shelter fails thanks to the same thing. Repair the Shelter fails with 10 seconds left.

I get frustrated, and load in my Constructor. I get the following missions, in order, all of which I bail:

Rescue the Survivors
Build the Radar Grid
Rescue the Survivors
Hunt the Titan
Destroy the Encampments
Rescue the Survivors
Rescue the Survivors

Can we PLEASE allow us to switch characters based on the mission? PLEASE? I wasted like a half hour on this.

Ultimate Cause of Season 3 Finale's Result - a question

I guess I always wondered, if Chuck shut off all the breakers in the house - what is continuing to draw power? Any ideas? I'm almost positive if I shut off every breaker in my house, the meter would stop.

Thank you! (Community appreciation post)

I left STW when the whole trading/gun box/scamming was happening every match. It was super annoying to those of us wanting to actually play the mission. But since I've been back, the community has been overwhelmingly great to play with. Out of the last 100 missions I've run, maybe 2-3 had players who would not contribute and just farm stuff the whole time.

So, thank you! You've all made the game way more enjoyable for me.

Sunbeam, sunbeam, where art thou?

I'm having a helluva time finding sunbeam lately. I'm poking around in caverns, looking for hog buddies, opening boxes. I'm down to about 8 now and yet brightcore is everywhere - I think I have 300+.

What's your go-to strategy for stockpiling sunbeam?

Max Level?

I noticed that in the mission rewards the exp screen is showing "Max Level" on both regular and Ventures. I am only like level 130 - is that the max?

Ore in Ventures - why?

I have so much sunbeam from Ventures - my boar pulls it incessantly. And I can't use any of it. Why???

I've read some comments from others about this but I haven't seen a full post bug report, and I didn't see it listed on the official Epic bug list.

Kinetic Overload never fires on the regular Base Kyles.

Kinetic Overload does fire on some of the other heroes, like Thunder Thora, BUT it will rapidly pulse every time a husk runs into it, about 4-5 times in rapid succession. Then it stops.

This is a bummer because it's one of the best skills Constructors have, with weapon skills that help trigger it as well. Hoping the devs will see this and take a look!

I can't believe this hasn't been discussed more often here. Ok, here's what happens when I spawn into a map on PWO

- Crap! They started it already. Lemme hoverboard over.

- No BASE, defense starting. I climb up (usually) for optimal placement.

- Getting plucked by the harpy skull throwers, so I long press square to bring up the wheel

- Doesn't work. Right I forgot. It doesn't work until you bring up the weapon page.

- Do that. Long press square again. Brings up wheel, which is full of random floor traps I picked up from supply caches last mission. No BASE option.

- Start looking for empty floor tiles to drop useless campfires, floor launchers, spike traps to clear room.

- Jump back up to the roof. Long press square. Still too many. Place healing pads, fire traps, freeze traps wherever I can.

- Finally long press square, drop BASE. Mission ends.

If I'm on top of it, I delete all those floor traps beforehand, and check my weapons on spawn in, and it's fine. But why do I have to? Two terrible bugs that anger me. I'm on PS5, by the way. Constructors unite!
