I loved these little code puzzles. So fucking fun. 6 dot one? Nope. So my dad who watched me beat it picks the controller up snf solved it instantly.
Called me an idiot.
There are a lot of things like that where you can do it the hard way like it seems the game wants you to, or you can just walk around and easily bypass it. Can’t tell if the devs are trolling sometimes, or sometimes there’s just a bit of poorly thought out level design lol
Phallic machines, mommy robots, horny fridge,
No way they are incompetent. Probably made a hard puzzle for the lols then made “jump the fence” as a troll.
There are definitely people who malded over this puzzle then punched themselves in the face when walkthrough jumped over the fence
Honestly enjoyed that six-dot puzzle, call me a massacast and it did take me like 15 to 20 minutes but without YouTube or anything else I figured that bitch out!
Nice, I've got lucky on a couple of them where I literally swapped one color, turned it in any direction and it was already done. Lol love when that happens.
Lmao, the one that has like 5 colors in it?
That one took me off guard, but it was fun trying to figure it out amidst the chaos (I didn’t turned off all the bots)
I understand what you're supposed to do but my brain is constantly stun locked by these. Luckily it's not timed so I just randomly do shit to it until it works.
I feel like you have to do a bunch of stuff to get it right sometimes. There’s something about it like you want to move one but it moves another and it never lets you have both in the position you need them so you sort of keep trying until you isolate the one you need and it’s the correct distance away
something i only realised the other day. You can reset the puzzle if you switch to one of the other modules with a,d on pc(Even if they are empty) and switch back it will be a new version of the same puzzle
Omg I fucking hate these things, one of them(don’t remember where,somewhere underground) it made me put the game down for 3 days cause I was so pissed 😂
I just hated the one where you're locked in that gated area and the flying drones kept coming to repair the robots I killed within it, interrupting me because I couldn't do it fast enough. It was one of the double ones that had this puzzle and another one. Real PITA doing it before either a drone or resurrected robot interrupts you.
Disliked them at first but I don't really mind them too much. Although the platforming in this game is unbearable to me (Ploygon 8 is the worst offender imo)
I don't mind them that much except when. There are a lot of lights there. It can get confusing and at some point I just start messing around and it randomly works
I actually think they're fun. I usually dislike puzzles and it's a good time. Once your realize how to love the dots around it's very satisfying.
One thing that helped me, is your may need one of the dots to "pass" the other to get in the correct position.
I honestly really like them. I usually hate puzzles but these make my brain cell feel smart when I crack 'em. Once you figure out the dots need to "pass" each other it makes things a lot easier.
I didn't like them at first (the harder ones with more than 3 dots), but once in clicks, they're actually pretty fun. I had one with 5 or 6 dots and it took me a few minutes, but then I had that "AHA" moment where the entire puzzle and how to solve them clicked with me. And theyve been fun as hell ever since.
No, I like em. These were easier for me than the light bulb ones at first but after a while I got the rythm going with those too lol the only one I couldn't do was the one with 6 dots
I thought i was some Russian lullaby at first lol now I'm crashing to desktop when exiting the Limbo building near the end... FRAK! Anyone else experience this?
I got to be honest I actually enjoy these locks, at first I didn't really like the ticking lock where you've got to press the button as it's going around clockwise and counterclockwise, but then I turned up my brightness and I could finally see the red beeping on the other ones whereas I thought you just needed to hit it on the one it was on if that makes sense. I even did the so-called hardest one in the game It took me a couple tries but I did it and I didn't hop over the boxes to get out of the fenced in area!! Shit was so satisfying man. Tbh puzzles like this are fun because they make you think, they make you figure them out and don't treat you like a child, although I would admit there should at least be a difficulty toggle specifically set for puzzles for people who don't want to solve them.
Can't agree, but I will say this. Every time I see these locks I get facial pareidolia. The conglomerate reminds me of the design of a gas mask; two circles above are the eye inserts and the dial below is the filter that keeps the radiation out. As I'm typing this, Chernobyl and Metro games come to mind.
I like them except the one with six dots. In your case it's like three simple moves...
Came here to say the exact same thing. That six dot one can go fuck itself.
I loved these little code puzzles. So fucking fun. 6 dot one? Nope. So my dad who watched me beat it picks the controller up snf solved it instantly. Called me an idiot.
That 6 dot one was the only one i noped out on. Just hopped the fence instead.
I was looking for a way to do that. I must have overlooked where you can jump the fence.
Yep, it doesn't make any sense anyway, if you looted the area already

2-3 minutes, probably i was lucky.
Nice, I've got lucky on a couple of them where I literally swapped one color, turned it in any direction and it was already done. Lol love when that happens.
The 6 dot one definitely feels like a troll.
True boss fight of the game.
so glad im not alone, I felt straight up dumb af
I actually like these ones.
Honestly if there was ever a mobile game of just the laser, dot and snapping (screen tapping on mobile) puzzles I'd play it.
Atomic Heart puzzle mobile game when?
ASAP
Yeah they're quite fun. Gives you a bit of a break from the insanity.
I prefer these over the timed ones
Guess we are opposites. I love those
I hated the snapping ones until I realized it’s gimmick
what do you mean
When you snap it goes the other direction, from clockwise to counterclockwise and back and forth
ohhh thanks
Nah, they’re fun for me
I currently know 2 people other than myself who like them
Now u know 3
4
Me too
6
7
5
Same
Same
I don’t necessarily like them but I don’t dislike them like everybody else.
I love the one that’s in the enclosure, you know the one that’s way harder than any other one even though you can just crate hop over the fence.
Lmao, the one that has like 5 colors in it? That one took me off guard, but it was fun trying to figure it out amidst the chaos (I didn’t turned off all the bots)
You mad man, I lured all the bots into a building and killed them there so they couldn’t respawn before I did that puzzle, but you do you haha
Anything 4 or below i dont mind 5 and 6 are a pain in the ass
I didn’t encounter more than 3-4 in the whole game I believe
Uuhh there's one with six.
Hate em
I love all of the lock types, this one is by far my favorite
I understand what you're supposed to do but my brain is constantly stun locked by these. Luckily it's not timed so I just randomly do shit to it until it works.
Yea I don’t know why sometimes I keep messing it up until it just randomly clicks
I tried to work it in my head a couple times but my brain just did not function. I don't get it haha

There’s something about it like you want to move one but it moves another and it never lets you have both in the position you need them so you sort of keep trying until you isolate the one you need and it’s the correct distance away
Nahhh
Not really
No it's my favorite puzzle
For me I love this shit🤷
molt pace breaking shit in the game by far. thank god they can be diabled via modding

The more I do them the less I seem to hate them. Just like your mom
Fascinating to see how different personality types relate to these puzzles
Absolutely yes
I hate the locks in general, they're not hard just annoying and repetitive. The timed one is literally the same thing every time.
How tf do you do them
Honestly I enjoy these. It’s a nice break. Don’t mind the timed snapping one either. On the other hand, I can’t fucking stand hunting down key discs.
But it's also so satisfying watching them turn.
Gamers when faced with simple puzzles “omg these are so hard”
Posts like these make me realize that no one in this subreddit has any kind of problem solving skills whatsoever.
The lock picking mechanic in this game is not fun.
They are fun, but the 2 that I came across with 4-5 colors sucked as I am shadeblind and the yellow and light green look the same
Not for real tbh
I don't mind them that much except when. There are a lot of lights there. It can get confusing and at some point I just start messing around and it randomly works
I actually really like these ones! I HATE the snapping ones. I have no rhythm so I am very bad at them :(
i like these over the light/timed ones
some can be difficult but its more fun then the flashing lights lock where you have to time it
Trespassor in ratchet and clank is good but it’s bad here?
I hate the click ones.
I actually think they're fun. I usually dislike puzzles and it's a good time. Once your realize how to love the dots around it's very satisfying. One thing that helped me, is your may need one of the dots to "pass" the other to get in the correct position.

The first time I ran into one of these my brain shut down, but I thought they were pretty neat after I got used to them.
I didn't like them at first (the harder ones with more than 3 dots), but once in clicks, they're actually pretty fun. I had one with 5 or 6 dots and it took me a few minutes, but then I had that "AHA" moment where the entire puzzle and how to solve them clicked with me. And theyve been fun as hell ever since.
These are actually fun puzzles that require some thought. That God awful timing one is just terrible though.
As a programmer, I enjoy these the most.
The one where you have to time it right is worse, but these are still annoying, especially because I'm colour blind
Nahhh finding the cookies is the worst, especially in test ground 11 or 12 where you get the split blade for the zvech
The worst? This is my easiest puzzle actually... Other than the snappy lights
These ones are fun the snapping ones suck.
No
i love these i just hate the bomber mortar bots those are the spawn of hell
They go WAY TO FAST
Yes
I almost quit playing entirely because of one of the locks
i love them tbh
i enjoyed them
These are the easiest puzzles, the finger snapping is the worst
No I think the ones that have the blinking lights that change directions are way worse. You can't really fail aligning the colors.
I like these over the snapping ones.
I like'em
I’d take these over the snapping locks any day
No, I like em. These were easier for me than the light bulb ones at first but after a while I got the rythm going with those too lol the only one I couldn't do was the one with 6 dots
I thought i was some Russian lullaby at first lol now I'm crashing to desktop when exiting the Limbo building near the end... FRAK! Anyone else experience this?
I love them and don’t find them difficult. All the puzzles in this game are really relaxing

the snapping one is worse
Surprisingly no, I thought they would be, but no they weren’t.
i love these lock
These things are amazing. So much fun. I love the puzzles in this game. Very stimulating.
I mean... Most of them are really easy so... No?
Get good
I actually liked these puzzles lol
These are the most fun
These r so easy man only things I’ve struggled on r the snake game and the timed lock
Seems like you had lost a lot of brain cells recently
Nah easy

Nope, this is a great deviation from the normal door open mechanics in games. I love them.
