God mode on Labs, does it actually teach you the map or just make you lazy

Closed thread Closed by archive

labs entry cards are expensive and i'm losing a full kit every two attempts. thinking about running god mode for a while just to walk the map and learn where things are without dying in the first corridor.

question for people who did this: did it actually stick when you turned it off, or did you just get used to not caring about cover

it sticks for layout and it absolutely makes you lazy on positioning. you learn where the stairs are, you don't learn how to fight for them.

do it with god mode but still play like you're killable. same angles, same cover, don't walk through the middle of a room. treat it as insurance not invincibility.

i did the opposite, god mode on and just sprinted everywhere to map it out fast. great for layout, terrible for habits. took me ages to stop sprinting through open rooms after.

for layout that's fine, you can unlearn a sprint habit in an afternoon. unlearning fear of dying takes longer.

labs specifically, the raiders will still beam you if you stand still even with god mode on, so you do end up respecting angles eventually

that's actually a decent point, it's not a free pass, you still get punished for standing in the open

going to do the play-like-you're-killable version. layout is the only thing i need, the fighting i'll pick up.
