Estimated time to get platinum

[ProNpandreas]

if anyone is looking to get platinum for this game its rougly 200+ hours, but depends on how efficient you are grinding exp. Fastest ways are going haz 3/4 highest hazard and length on missions, mutators also gives extra exp, double exp, joinning late. avoid missions that take long time to finish. You want high exp per minute to farm levels efficient, also dont use a character with lvl 25 thats waste of exp

Personally I finished with a total time of 315 hours, missions time wise it was only 197 hours. I’m sure a lot of it was loading in ect but that’s almost 100 hours haha. 
 

EDIT, from my experience 100% should at least take 250 hours to max 350.

The PS4 version has massive load-times compared to the PS5 version, with some levels taking upwards of two-to-five minutes to load into depending on how staggered people are when joining, hence the discrepancy between the completion times.

Also, even on PS5, loading in as the fourth guy on a big, chewed-up cave takes a long time. Solo dropping into a fresh level is quite fast by comparison. Late joining is still good, but not quite as good as it looks.

177 hours for me. Optimal 2XP Point Extraction mission can speed up this grind greatly.

It took me approx 300hrs to get this done but I was taking my time and didn't use any exploits.

[psycho_clank314]

Bittergems no longer track if a team mate picks them up apparently. I just tested this and when I collected them it works but if a team made does it does not add to the counter. Looks like I'll have to solo grind after I'm done promoting everyone to gold.

It depends on many things. Normally, it took around 300 hrs for the grind only. With planning on how are you choose mission and play could cut this number by half or even more with exploit. 

Getting through story+other trophies use around 40 - 100 hrs depends on how you rush and play. 

So, its 100+ to 400+ hrs Platinum. 
 

Trophies hunter for easy plat will turn away for this long game. My friend who has 500+ plat play with me once and he uninstall the game immediately.

 

Casual gamers will not play until plat for this game and some hardcore gamers might not bother for trophies. With these and DRG is on Plus monthly free game, % will be pretty low.

312 hours for me. I played it normally. 

[Juzam666]

My PS5 time played is 256hrs.

The plat time is probably closer to 245hrs.

I have driller and scout at gold 2.

 

Stacking it on the 4, trending to come in well under 200hrs.

Not sure if it has changed but it never worked like that, specifically it will only count if you are already in the game when someone DEPOSITS the bittergem into molly or the dropship. If you join and it has already been deposited then it won't count.

 

It didnt need to be you who deposited it, just anyone on the team. I can not test as ive already got the trophy however I am happy to add this to the trophy in the guide if anyone can corroborate to confirm this change

[sebjohguper]

I would say 300-350hrs is reasonable. If you grind a bit but still enjoy the game at your own pace, explore deep dives and overclocks and so on and not only going for maximum xp. 

 

If you ONLY grind double xp missions you could probably do it in 200hrs. But where's the fun in that? 

 

Good luck
