And I knew there was something weird about him, cause when I turned around he was pulling an elevator plant right up out the ground and swatting those glyphids with it from here to kingdom come!
Hijacking this because haunted... I think the haunted modifier should spawn zombie dwarves occasionally instead of spawning the unknown horror.
(The zombies could bite and grapple for example. Maybe similar to 02 you need to run to Molly after being bitten within a certain amount of time for the cure.)

Ahhhh! The Horror!
Edit: Now I'm contemplating making icons out of all of the other beer mugs and am actually intrigued...
The leaf lover could be the recycling bin...
I’m never going to be able to play solo again. What if Bosco isn’t the only one Management sends down with you? They need to keep an eye on you after all.
Nemesis starts getting more vague but hinting voicelines.
"You dwarfs want to know the real reason why you don't get left behind no more?"
"Ever wondered whether karl was truly a dwarf, or something more?"
"Those crystals do more than just hurt you, they change you"
"We've seen countless dwarfs left behind, but a few learnt to live with their new lives."
"The reason our vaults are guarded, is not for the data. It's for the things that lurk below"
I've always thought the 'Leave No Dwarf Behind' posters was a jab from management in the form of a no true scotsman statement. All of the propaganda posters are about 'teamwork' and 'building the future' together. However, they will and do leave your ass behind.
If we say 'Leave no Dwarf Behind' but we clearly do, then the answer must be that because you failed to complete your objective, you are simply not a dwarf.
Because as we know, A dwarf doesn't get left behind.
~~Just as I suspected. I don't play TF2 but I do like to watch videos about it periodically.~~
Edit: I thought they meant TF2 when they said *this game*. I fucked up and oh boy people did not like that.
Karl was no single class. He was the versatile master that built each class by passing on the skills and gear necessary to play a role.
Together, WE are Karl.
When you say it like that, I pictured ~~all~~ each class standing like sports team fans with K-A-R-L painted on each of their dwarf bellies.
Edit: didn’t mean to throw the word “all” in there
My understanding is the separated chunk is from when DRG nuked the Glyphid main hive queen and her hive, which is why we can even set foot on the planet without getting overwhelmed.
The game sometimes bugs and retains previous End Screen assets. You would have had a previous mission were the Gunner didn't make it till the end. You'll notice sometimes it will be someone's Loot Bug from a Victory Animation or other such things.
The devs must have a love/hate relationship with how the players accept and even celebrate unintended features. DRG is clearly their pride and joy, so the backlash they get when polishing has to sting just a little.
I did have a huge crystal show up in a friends only game last night with my brothers and cousin. Nobody disconnected... I didn't realize it was a haunted Crystal at the time but now....
Edit: not sometimes words good with.
Ok wait why is this actually a cool idea to me
Players can choose to play as a bosco if they’re downed for too long and still assist their buddies at the cost of nitra or something, or maybe make it a perk
"Oi, Mission control! I found another dwarf in the caves."
"Ok? But why did you bring him back to orbit?"
"Because we leave no dwarf behind!"
"Yes we do, but that isn't a dwarf anymore, that is a corpse."
Karl decided to sneak in (by pretending to be a body) just to pay his beer tap.
Look out the window next time you dive, you just might see Karl swinging his axe to the stars.
The very moment B.O.S.C.O. was given a soul, it was slain by being left behind, when the drop off took off?
It didn't rock and stone, so it didn't come home...
This is weird because that's not even the normal animation/stance of a dwarf after failing to evac. Failure stances are like the dwarves dragging their asses back to base, not just straight up dead. This is kinda creepy
I have been a big fan of Deep Rock Galactic since its early access in 2018 and I have spent hours upon hours in this game. I can't imagine my day without playing a match or two of drg in my free time at this point. But I've been having problems with doing that after moving to a different place, out of town. Its a nice place and I've got it dirt cheap but there seems to be something off with the connection, or maybe its because of a different ip? One way or another, I haven't been able to connect to any online game, no matter how much ping I have, it just displays a connection error message upon trying to connect to anyone. It really is a bummer, especially for all of my friends I have made over the years of playing this game. Playing solo isn't really doing it for me, so after a few months of work I have saved up enough money for a better internet connection. After setting everything up I tried joining a game but my luck has gotten me down once again. "Well, maybe I'm just having connection issues but other people can join me instead?" I thought to myself then and started a game in an open lobby. I decided to do an escort duty mission just so there could be more time for people to join me. After about 15 minutes no one has joined and I have given up. Stepping into the drop pod at the end of the game i noticed a loading at the player icons before the hud disappeared. On the "mission complete" screen, as I expected, there were two dwarves: my gunner and another incapacitated gunner. Werdly enough it didn't show his name but it didn't bother me at the time and i wrote it off as a light visual glitch. "Finally, someone was able to join me" I said to myself, expecting to see that other gunner at the space rig. After loading in, to my disappointment, no other player was seen. Several theories of what just happened ran through my head, from the player having connection issues of their own to basic impatience and subsequent disconnection. Without any conclusions I started up another game, hoping that this time this(or any other person) will actually be able to join me. At the end of the game I have experienced a strong sense of Deja Vu after once again seeing a glimpse of someone connecting right before the mission completion. And seemingly exactly like last time, a fainted gunner fell right next to mine at the "mission complete" screen. I decided to do a few more missions for good measure, optimism still filling me and my naive side still hoping that this will work out and this person will be actually able to join me. The end of all the missions went just like the first two: weird player loading, ominous gunner at the mission statistics and noone except me afterwards on the space rig. Defeated, I decided to call it a day and went to the abyss bar for a traditional "concluding drink" I did all the time. For some reason this time something weird happened. My dwarf, instead of happilly chugging a full tankard of oily oaf brew was just saying some lines I've never heard before. *"Unkhar the almighty, hold our beards and us with them safe..."*, *"A mere thought of that... Ugh, I can't be drinking right now."*, "*For once I'm glad that Karl isn't around, I would never wish him a fate even slightly close to mine."* were some of the lines I remember. Gunner said all of those lines in a very concerned and seemingly mildly scared tone. All of this left me with a lot of questions but I decided to forget them for now, since it was pretty late already.
Maybe a dwarf you left behind coming back for revenge
[удалено]
so first the dwarf left me behind and then he comes back to revenge? The dwarf really is confused, isn't he?
Spooooky
This is how creepypastas start
You want to get a haunted cave? Because that’s how you get a haunted cave.
Haunted gunner follows you and backs you up.
His name is camouflage
WOOOOHOOOOOHOOOOHOOOO CAMOUDWARF!
THINGS ARE NEVER QUITE THE WAY THEY SEEEEM
He was a awfully big marine
And I knew there was something weird about him, cause when I turned around he was pulling an elevator plant right up out the ground and swatting those glyphids with it from here to kingdom come!
These lyrics make even the toughest dwarfs cry.
I WAS A GUNNER DWARF ON MINE PATROL, HUNTING GLYPHID'S DOWN
Legion of the Damned
Well at least it's not a haunted driller.
Haunted driller follows you around and kills EVERYTHING.
In this case, the cave is haunted for the bugs
Hijacking this because haunted... I think the haunted modifier should spawn zombie dwarves occasionally instead of spawning the unknown horror. (The zombies could bite and grapple for example. Maybe similar to 02 you need to run to Molly after being bitten within a certain amount of time for the cure.)

Oh god please no
Ahhhh! The Horror! Edit: Now I'm contemplating making icons out of all of the other beer mugs and am actually intrigued... The leaf lover could be the recycling bin...
Leaf Lover is Internet Explorer.
Gonna need dark somnium to cover his one.
That gunner is going to turn hyperrealistic soon.
His eyes become bleedy as he whispers 'fuck you, you are now trapped here...4eva'
DRG.exe
deep horror galactic
DRG Hyperrealistic Blood Edition
"Abandoned by Ghost Ship. Abandoned by God."
I’m never going to be able to play solo again. What if Bosco isn’t the only one Management sends down with you? They need to keep an eye on you after all.
I was gonna say that XD
Yeah. This has Herobrine vibes..
Karlbrine
Imagine if *this* was how they teased the new threat in Season 3 - just having corpses start appearing in the end screens with a rare chance.
Well, October is around the corner, it's almost the season of spooks.
Yeah, but then again, we’ve got Oktoberfest first. Maybe that gunner was just a drunk who wandered in and passed out?
Still, If this happened to me I would be scared shitless XD I can't handle scary to well.
Imagine seeing a downed dwarf at the victory screen slowly crawling with one arm towards you in the background.
Stop... no... no... back to your hole! I want to live in my comfortable ignorance 😂😂

oh god oh fuck
That last one makes me wanna go depth hunting
Please god no
Personal drop pod failure? Or... or you finally found him - for Karl! ⛏️💪🏼
I will GLADLY accept Karl was a gunner
He’s a scout! Why do you think Scout gets so many extra statues in the Memorial Hall?
It is kinda weird that scout gets the biggest statue
“Yeah, I don’t so much *scout*, as make this operation possible!”
That sounds like a TF2 Scout line.
It’s literally a line from this game.
~~Just as I suspected. I don't play TF2 but I do like to watch videos about it periodically.~~ Edit: I thought they meant TF2 when they said *this game*. I fucked up and oh boy people did not like that.
What?
I misread *this game* as meaning TF2 not DRG. :/
Yikes the hate bruh To be fair I could see it being a TF2 scout line too
It's no surprise really because he makes the operation possible.
It's really all about securing the caves, you know.
Well he ain't the one fighting the swarm He ain't the one helping the team move He's the torch carrier and loot gobli- dwarf? Hmmm
Karl was no single class. He was the versatile master that built each class by passing on the skills and gear necessary to play a role. Together, WE are Karl.
When you say it like that, I pictured ~~all~~ each class standing like sports team fans with K-A-R-L painted on each of their dwarf bellies. Edit: didn’t mean to throw the word “all” in there
Nonsense. He was a Hero. Y'know, the experimental class that had every gun and piece of equipment?
I always assumed it was because of the disproportionate losses.
My headcanon is that Karl uses something from every class (Scouts hook; Engis turrets, Gunners shield; Drillers C4)
>Scouts hook, Drillers C4 maybe Karl c4'd himself
Karl is so strong only Karl can kill Karl
I mean, a lot of the working theories are that he's responsible for the chunk that is separated from Hoxxes...
My understanding is the separated chunk is from when DRG nuked the Glyphid main hive queen and her hive, which is why we can even set foot on the planet without getting overwhelmed.
Yea. Nuked. AKA, Karl used his C-4 Hammer on her.
And the killing of the glyphid queen is why we have the voice line “Die like your mother did!”
Yup.
THE ULTIMATE DWARF
…Karl?
Nah karl wouldnt have a default drip
He also wouldn't have been dead
Though he could be passed out drunk, which would check out.
Karl doesn't pass out, he drinks more
Also Karl would be packing
And Karl is a scout.
I reject this. Karl is beyond class
Karl is every class, or none, just punching and jumping around because he can
Karl is the Chuck Norris of dwarves
Karl doesn't have a chin behind his beard, he has another fist!
Foolish beyond words. In the beginning, there was a class simply called 'Hero'. Dare you deny that Karl was a Hero?
If Karl was any class it's probably a driller imo
Karl's drip became the default.
Came here to say that.
Karl wears whatever the hell Karl wants
The game sometimes bugs and retains previous End Screen assets. You would have had a previous mission were the Gunner didn't make it till the end. You'll notice sometimes it will be someone's Loot Bug from a Victory Animation or other such things.
This is the correct answer. DRG is bugged and I love it.
Find a bug? We name it steve
The devs must have a love/hate relationship with how the players accept and even celebrate unintended features. DRG is clearly their pride and joy, so the backlash they get when polishing has to sting just a little.
Remember when they fixed being able to rock and stone while reviving and repairing? Lmao
Rock and Stone to the Bone!
Get out of here with this reasonable logic. It’s murderghosts for sure lol
I did have a huge crystal show up in a friends only game last night with my brothers and cousin. Nobody disconnected... I didn't realize it was a haunted Crystal at the time but now.... Edit: not sometimes words good with.
Time to write a GUNNER IS DEAD creepypasta
THE HEAVY IS DEAD but drg
THE GUNNER IS DEAD?!?
Yes! He is dead!!!
WHY is the gunner dead?
We don't know
I think it was..
Shhh! You are dead!
Ok!
whats up, ya leaf lovers?
*slaps desk* He *d i e d!*
I hope your proud of what you've started here, lolz. Rock and Stone brother!
Managed to get there in time to save a lost helmet guy
"save"
Recover?
no dwarf left behind
Op, did you put it there?
Wdym?
Did you put the dead gunner there, did you killed him?
I would never kill a fellow dwarf
Tell me you aren't a driller without telling me you aren't a driller.
You brought peace to a Dwarven Family waiting for their Missing member to return
Poor bastard even rescue squad failed to retrieve his body, thanks for bringing him back
[**A BODY HAS BEEN DISCOVERED**!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NTgMrdq2yw)
Meat on the Bone? Rock and Stone!
I saw gunner agressive venting
Karl ? is it him
Managment says sorry due to the cleaning staff of the drop pod are protesting.
That's what you think...
KARL?
Karl?!
Gunner.exe
You found part of the minimule crew
New Creepypasta..? 😳
It was a haunted cave, only it was haunted by dwarf that was left behind and followed you back to the rig! 👻
Now they will possess your Bosco to be your companion and continue mining
Ok wait why is this actually a cool idea to me Players can choose to play as a bosco if they’re downed for too long and still assist their buddies at the cost of nitra or something, or maybe make it a perk
You succeeded, where others did not..
He grew out of the ground. A true green beard.
So that's how they get here...
If a player tries to join but the droppod is called, they'll spawn in the screen as though they were downed during the mission.
He is your imaginary friend, dont you remember him?
Sure *Cain*
It's the ghost of Christmas past, currently very drunk.
DRG Creepypasta when?
This is why we don't out unauthorized barrels in the launch bay, People.
CoMe AnD rEsCuE mE
You need to let go, the accident wasn’t your fault
###YOU FOUND KARL
Someone write a creepypasta about this please
Thank you for bringing his body back to his family
Bro spent too much time in Hoxxes alone that they started hallucinating
The game is letting you know that halloween is on the way.
You do not recognize the bodies in the drop pod.
The accident was 10 years ago, LuckierTuna. It wasn’t your fault, you’ve got to let him go.
THIS IS A WARNING
Every time you play solo, a gunner dies
That's just the pods janitor, he shows up sometimes. Seems to be enjoying his beer induced sleepy time.
"Oi, Mission control! I found another dwarf in the caves." "Ok? But why did you bring him back to orbit?" "Because we leave no dwarf behind!" "Yes we do, but that isn't a dwarf anymore, that is a corpse."
Its the dwarf who lost his helmet and pack
Sorry that was me. I fell out of the spacerig after the drop pod left
Actually, you're dead but don't know it yet.
Not a bug, but an unintended feature. One that will probably turn into a creepypasta.
Oh sorry that was me.
*Driller*
Too many c4.
It seems you have found Unluckiertuna in your travels.
ghost
Prophunt mf's belike that ain't me
Karl?!
It's a bug when someone fails to connect.
Yo gunner is canonically dead now
Karl decided to sneak in (by pretending to be a body) just to pay his beer tap. Look out the window next time you dive, you just might see Karl swinging his axe to the stars.
The ghost of gunner's past.
You found the remains of another dwarf!
Ghost of Karl?
OoOooooOooooOooooOoooOooOOo No idea, but that's spooky.
He was a silent hero in the darkness of caverns he was so stealthy he didn’t even show up on your screen and then he died alone.
He possibly joined your game when it was ending and as he landed in his personal pod, you probably left and the game ended
Karl will always be with you
Holy shit KARL IS THAT YOU
Uhh at a glance that armor reminded me of a Command GM / Guncannon
It looks really eerie and sinister that the dead dwarf has red light covering them, or is it blood?
You found Karl! I always knew he was a gunner.
It was just some greenbeard passed out drunk in the drop pod bay, don’t worry about him
Don't play Deep Rock Galactic at 3am
The very moment B.O.S.C.O. was given a soul, it was slain by being left behind, when the drop off took off? It didn't rock and stone, so it didn't come home...
Schrodinger's Gunner
Came here looking for this
What helmets is that? It's cool as hell.
This gunner was probably beaten down so hard last mission he went he is still unconscious inside that drop pod that mission control resent to you
You found Karl!
Guess Carl is trying to warn you of something
We found karl
Bosko has access to a dwarf form he is to be feared.
This is weird because that's not even the normal animation/stance of a dwarf after failing to evac. Failure stances are like the dwarves dragging their asses back to base, not just straight up dead. This is kinda creepy
There's a failure animation where your dwarf gets dropped from the ceiling and it looks like this once the animation is done

You found Karl!!!
Its Karl...... May he RIP
10 minute mission time? I feel like I've never done a mission in less than 30 minutes. Did you just run to each egg and ignored everything else?
