Interesting thing that I've found out about OWLF recordings. (PS4)

#1

I decided to put this in bug reports because I believe I’ve finally discovered that it is basically a bug.

After realizing I can solo queue into private matches (because I’m a dummy that didnt attempt to do so before. XD) I’ve realized that the OWLF recordings work significantly better than getting them from a public match.

For example, in a public match, you can in fact pick these up and survive with it and manage to survive with it to take it back. However, I’ve noticed that in private match, if you escape with one, it will show in the rewards inventory that you were rewarded an OWLF recording. In addition to that, it will also give you a notification in the main menu on extras that you have obtained one. It doesnt do that at all, however, for public match OWLF recordings.

Also, in public match there are times where even surviving with one wont get you a new one, however in private match I’ve never once had it happen and I almost have all of them now.

My guess is that the system for OWLF recordings was optimized in private matches but not for public matches. So I’d file this under optimization fixes as well, for those that like to collect them.

Its in the extras menu in the main, you select it and then press another button to play the audio

It such a shame too because it literally fills in lore holes we wanna know about. Its really good shit and has some great, great, voice acting. Our squad is cheesey as fuck but the recording were given some serious thought and good talent. It’s only one person I believe but they did really good.

Dutch, LA Pred, what happens to the tech, theories on them, what they know, don’t, want to know, he talks about all of it.

Solo private matches as FT are way more efficient at getting veratanium and the OWLF recordings. It’s probably not intended so I wouldn’t be surprised if it gets nerfed like when they nerfed duplicates which nobody asked for.

bte where to find it ? I’m level 96 and couldn’t find anyone, where are approximately they located and how many in one round?

OWLF recordings act like Varitanium drops. They are randomly generated and only one shows up, if it even shows up at all. You can find it wherever varitanium spawns.

Its unfortunate but yeah probably.

#9

They only appear once in every few private matches and they have a red glow like that of veritanium only red they are random in public matches but if you get downed in a public match you have to go back to your corpse to recollect the recording where just making sure that you finish the mission and exfil with the recording is the common thread between them both.

My recommendation.

Make a fireteam support class, bring heals and ammo. Pick the weapons you never feel like using or the ones you do, either or. I’m a completionist do I did it this way.

Get a podcast ready, or a new album ready to play or play Biographics channel on youtube, not my channel but shout to em, educate yall selves a bit with some cool shit.

Turn down the in game music a good bit (it’ll get old quick trust me) load up a private game. Pick Fireteam, drop in and just zone out a bit doing mindless OBJs and look around.

The AI is the most non threatening ever it might as well be a free roam.

You’ll pull some map knowledge, see OBJs you’ve never done before and can rank up guns with the greatest of ease and speed.

You’ll fine tapes here and there, not always, but while looking you’ll rack up a TON and I mean a TON of verium easily. Its almost trivial how much you get away with.
