Main Assembly Tunnels
Even with the suits light cant see a damn thing, the lights seem to be aimed two feet in front of me directly on the ground.

Anyone else got it almost pitch black? Not sure if it's meant to be that dark, though it does add some nice atmosphere into the game ;)

Also there is a worker trapped behind a door down there, i'm guessing I need to power the place up and the lights will come back on and the door will be accesible?

I play with max brightness there is a light gray haze on everything but everything is perfectly visable.

Worth the trade off IMO.

The lynx suit lights are abysmal.

yeah, turning the power back on gets light in the tunnels too and powers that door.

I'm still trying to figure out where I'm supposed to go down there... I found the tunnel full of toxic waste and... I stupidly went in there and almost lost 5k Tech Scraps... not keen to do it again lol

Your supposed to run in and activate the generator then run back out into the large open space outside.

Thanks, the place is a great change. Awesome using only the targeting of the targeting gui to time the dodge when the enemy attacks. Only annoyance is the drones sneaking up behing you ;)

Yeah the lights are fixed in position for standing still but then your character slouches nearly 90 degrees when he moves. Luckily it's only dark for a short while and you can easily spot any threat since they're covered in christmas lights.

Ohh never went far enough to see that :). Going to fight a boss/miniboos first that I found behind some bushes.

i equiped the heavy rig blade and used that for light along with the terrible suit lights. fortunatly you can lock on dispite not being able to actually see an enemy so just run spamming the lock on so your not suprised

Huh. Generator's on... so the toxic tunnels... are they just there as a "I could explore here but it's a bad idea" section?

it's a dead end with a pretty OK weapon at the end. You -could- run to the end in the starter armor, given enough healing, you just probably won't make it back out.

Volatile Spectre is down there, and it's VERY good, especially against the later "big dog" style walking drones.

I had the issue that some of the textures went pitch black after i set "Volumetric Lighning" on the highest setting with my 1080. Setting it to "high" from "very high" fixed the issue for me. But i also restarted the game after changing the setting, so this might have solved the issue, too.

I'll have to try to get it... I'ma deal with the boss first though. lol. He made me angry with his annoying "discharge" attack

Is there, at any point, a set of armour which resists the toxic crap? Or would I just need to pile on enough health to just tank the damage? I too got to the toxic tunnels and decided the game didn't mean for me to go there yet.

No idea... I equipped 3 healing injectors and ran through to get the damn weapon... needed about that to get in and out.
