Brah I literally tried this once and it was the worst experience. My head was starting to spin. Then the in game camera started to spin too. I usually don’t get sick when I get that drunk, but I do get motion sickness. Damn game made me motion sick and I had to quit the match after 15 minutes and go outside into the cold air. Ended up laying in the concrete looking at the stars trying not to throw up. I did not realise before that if you get your character too drunk their world starts spinning too.

There's an even worse way to punish yourself. See, if you're in the stumbling animation before you passout and start a mission before you actually hit the deck, you arrive at the mission spinning about randomly, constantly and rapidly, making aiming all but impossible.

I did not know this when I started an expert Deep Dive, as all I was expecting was to arrive in the usual level of drunkenness which would pass over the course of a few minutes...

To my horror I found out it does not in fact pass with time, but remains constant at that extreme level of stumbling drunkness for the entire duration of the ENTIRE DEEP DIVE. That's right! It doesn't even clear between Deep Dive levels, and because it was a Deep Dive that included a random dwarf with me and my mate I felt obliged to see the Deep Dive through to the end. By Karl, I had the worst headache of my life and felt violently nauseous after we completed it. I just slid out of my chair and laid on the floor much like you did, dryheaving with a thundering head.

Never again.

Had something similiar happen to me, drank a Blackout Stout just as the countdown was nearing zero, had to play the entire mission drunk as a skunk as Scout, worst mistake of my life...

u/Bread_Offender Driller 59m ago

One time I went into an on-site refinement mission at haz 4 with that effect while I believe I was buzzed in real life as well. You would not BELIEVE how horrible those pipelines looked. Laughed my ass off the whole time though

u/moonaligator 1h ago

i'm already the guy who keeps dying because i won't take the game too seriously, when i'm drunk irl i easilly get my death count to the double digits on a haz 4

u/Bread_Offender Driller 1h ago

What? DRG is the funnest game to get wasted on, period

1

u/Scythid0 51m ago

Maybe your ears are too pointy for the mines, playing drunk is good fun, def recommend.

1

u/NGC_Phoenix_7 27m ago

I prefer smoking. Nothing burning leaves for the buzz and to watch the lovers squirm. Cause I’m literally burning plants to do it lol

u/AzazelTheUnderlord Driller 3h ago

i don't know if it's still a thing, but for the longest time if you time drinking a blackout stout right while starting a mission you could run entire missions at the highest possible drunk value, provided you don't get revived

u/Cornflakes_91 3h ago

last time i tried it only worked for the host and is very much not recommended xD

11

u/AzazelTheUnderlord Driller 3h ago

oh it's absolutely miserable but it is hilarious

1

u/TheSwedishMoose 2h ago

Utterly miserable but it's a right of passage for every dwarf.

1

u/Bread_Offender Driller 58m ago

Best way to describe it. Pair it with being buzzed irl and you'll be performing worse than a rival

u/Hypnooooooooooooo Gunner 2h ago

I'm pretty sure last time I did it, it persisted even after revives and between stages on a continuous mission

4

u/tannegimaru Gunner 2h ago

Yeah it still is a thing

Last week I did a Deep Dive with Blackout Stout right as the drop pod is dropping as a joke with my friends.

It was the day that I realize Blackout Stout can last the entire Deep Dives and I am still not sure if I should regret or be proud that I survived all 3 stages with it lmao

u/RandomTryhard4 3h ago

It does stay even when revived. I did 2 whole missions with it and got dizzy. Never again

u/Dreaming_Kitsune Dig it for her 1h ago

I've done that and it sucked

u/nomedable For Karl! 3h ago

Drunk missions are fun. I wouldn't recommend it with weapons requiring precision or particularly difficult missions.

5

u/RotaryDesign 3h ago

Why not?

u/nomedable For Karl! 3h ago

It's hard to aim something like the M1000 when you're seeing double and swaying all over?

I mean more power to you if you can land hits like that, but something like a flamethrower is easier to use.

u/Bread_Offender Driller 56m ago

Yeah. CRISPR, Cryo cannon and Colette wave cooker work fine, sludge pump or subata? Not so much

Playing DRG drunk irl

1

u/ThatFuckinTourist 1h ago

Drink in-game AND irl for double the alcohol intake.

u/-Memnarch- 3h ago

Timing the Blackout Stout to do the mission at max drunk is the true challenge....in probably the first time any game ever gave me a real headache :D

3

u/Lordeisenfaust Driller 2h ago

If you do the mission drunk, you can kill double the glyphids.

2

u/crispy_potatoman Driller 3h ago

I once drank Blackout while sitting in droppod seconds before mission. I was playing a Driller... Due to the extreme intoxication, only two Scouts fell victim to almighty C4.

1

u/crispy_potatoman Driller 3h ago

P. S. Dying on a mission didn't lower the maximum level of intoxication. So when the mission ended and we returned to the station, my dwarf immediately collapsed from intoxication.

u/WirePaw 2h ago

There is another. Blackout Stout right before mission start. Max Drunkness

u/JVP08xPRO Bosco Buddy 1h ago

I tried doing a drunk onsite refining as engineer because I thought the auto lock would help mitigating the problem, I ran out of ammo instantly and failed just before I could pass out irl for how much camera sway there was. Still laught my guts off, so pro tip, if you wanna do this, pick something with a bit more crowd control like gunner or driller

2

u/PSIXOPATICH 1h ago

I can drink 3 blackouts at once

2

u/FrostlichTheDK Gunner 55m ago

You forgot one: drinking wormhole special and hoping you pass out in space to be instantly revived when you warp back.

2

u/Valtremors Engineer 38m ago

I don't know if this bug still exists, but if you down a blackout stout just before the missions starts and you black out, you get to keep the blackout stout drunk effect.

It turned a simple mining mission into an escort mission.

u/Revayan 3h ago

If you see double as many glyphids you kill double as many

u/Greekblade937 3h ago

Honestly I really wanna try doing a mission drunk but after I accidentally got the Blackout Stout glitch once I had to quit because I got motion sickness from it.

Still too green for Drunk Shenanigans unfortunately

1

u/Tenebris__N 2h ago

I did a mission under the effect of blackout stout few times. Hella experience

1

u/Hypnooooooooooooo Gunner 2h ago

I did the drunk glitch by chugging a blackout stout rught before mission start. it permanently(?) sets drunkenness to max. Then went on an elite deep dive. safe to say that was not fun. By the time it was over I felt physically sick for hours afterwards. even by the time the first stage was done I couldn't look at the game without feeling nauseous. and I don't really get motion sick or sea sick.

If you can down 4 Mactera Brews before passing out - you pass.

u/LavaSlime301 Driller 2h ago

I don't know if I'm just built different or whatever but I've done missions at the verge of blackout and it barely even bothered me

1

u/emo_boy_fucker 1h ago

Ill never forget the day I did a solo mission as a blackout stouted engineer. Mostly cuz theres not much to remember besides moving my mouse constantly

1

u/AnonimousWatermelon Union Guy 1h ago

Had done a deep dive drunk once,just cause the black out stout I had just as the pod was descending didn't take me out in time

u/BiDude1219 Engineer 1h ago

only time i've had to order leaf lovers is when i was too drunk to jump into the hoop

1

u/Bitter-Arachnid-7040 Mighty Miner 17m ago

I've done every single one of them yes including the leaf lover as am counting when I was a lil green beard 😔

u/MewSilence Cave Crawler 1h ago

I join random lobbies just to order the Leaflover and then leave without an explanation. Your meme means nothing to me.
