905s | coming to you in chapter 4 uh Age of War |
907s | when it comes out April 2nd um so we'll |
910s | be going over a new uh seasonal event |
914s | that will be introduced with this update |
916s | um expansions to The Purge system uh |
920s | fatality system bunch of quality of life |
923s | improvements uh and of course a whole |
925s | slew of uh new additions to the bizaar |
928s | and the battle pass which we will be |
930s | covering as much as we can today but we |
932s | got a lot to cover |
933s | today um before we begin do you have any |
937s | four wordss or anything like that or any |
939s | any any insights or anything from |
940s | chapter three we gleaned or to |
943s | add uh |
948s | well I'm G mess around all you think |
951s | yeah sure um put me on the spot Andy by |
955s | the way wow oh I know I I know I really |
957s | put you on the spot yeah I mean we don't |
958s | have to necessar I mean I know I I like |
960s | messing with you I mean every every |
962s | update that we do you know there's stuff |
964s | that trickles over from One update to |
965s | another and um we always look at the |
968s | feedback that people give about things |
969s | that they liked and didn't like so we |
971s | can inform ourselves going forward on |
973s | you know the new stuff that we'll do um |
976s | we'll touch on some of that during the |
977s | stream today though so I guess I don't |
979s | need to get ahead of myself and we can |
981s | kind of just jump yeah yeah okay yeah |
983s | yeah for |
984s | sure so yeah um so let's see so yeah |
987s | this is this is certainly chapter for |
989s | the inclusion of chapter 4 is a um bit |
991s | of a bit of a pretty pretty significant |
993s | shift uh as far as like our original |
995s | plans were for like the entire like Ag |
997s | and chapter system um I mean basically |
999s | it was just like there's a whole bunch |
1001s | of stuff that we had intended to add |
1003s | throughout the age and uh we're now |
1006s | adding it the fourth chapter essentially |
1008s | like can you give any like have we I |
1010s | don't know if we've like really talked |
1012s | about too much about like why chapter 4 |
1014s | and all that like maybe we touch on a |
1016s | little bit from last stream maybe we can |
1017s | go into a little bit today definitely |
1019s | talk about that to a larger scale sure |
1021s | am um but it was kind of two things that |
1024s | came to a head at the same time and just |
1026s | you know kind of gave us the realization |
1028s | that hey we needed to move to four |
1030s | chapters so one was that we had a lot of |
1033s | stuff in chapter 3 that was mostly done |
1037s | and ready to ship but not quite ready |
1039s | and if we moved on to a new age it might |
1041s | never see the light of |
1043s | day so that was the first thing um and |
1047s | the other was a shift in the way we |
1050s | wanted to approach our timeline as a |
1052s | development team I think I remember |
1053s | talking about this because it's a lot |
1055s | more of the boring stuff to hear but |
1057s | basically it gives us more time to work |
1059s | on the stuff that come out in certain |
1061s | chapters and it'll just mean that we get |
1064s | better you know deeper higher quality |
1067s | things with the the chapters that |
1069s | contain main releases so going forward |
1072s | the first and third chapters in a a |
1075s | release will typically be where you find |
1077s | the bulk of the like new features new |
1080s | functionality kind of stuff chapter 2 |
1082s | and chapter 4 will typically just be |
1084s | more content that builds upon the things |
1087s | that we've already uh released in |
1090s | previous chapters or ages |
1093s | even so you could see new events in the |
1095s | event system you know new events like |
1097s | the one we'll be talking about today um |
1100s | you know updates things like the loot |
1102s | updates and things like that uh you know |
1104s | Camp placement stuff that that would all |
1106s | typically fall into the uh more content |
1109s | oriented chapters in in two and four |
1111s | where one and three will be a lot more |
1113s | about features with content MH like |
1116s | sorcery for example or like purges |
1118s | purges yeah yeah yeah yeah |
1120s | cool well great so uh and then moving |
1124s | forward I think the but I believe the |
1125s | plan is yeah like we'll have we'll have |
1127s | four chapters for for each age moving |
1130s | forward yeah and as always I mean |
1132s | anything is subject to change if we |
1133s | wanted to do an age that was two |
1134s | chapters we wouldn't not do that just |
1136s | because we said we'll do four so um |
1139s | you know |
1142s | go so yeah all right so first things |
1146s | first I think I'm we're just going to |
1147s | jump into the content of chapor 4 so |
1151s | the uh some of you we previewed a couple |
1154s | of the things uh in my drunken walk |
1156s | through uh through the through the intro |
1158s | here I saw someone in chat commenting |
1159s | about who's who's piloting it's it's |
1161s | it's me I'm |
1163s | sorry he's drunk I'm I'm not drunk I |
1167s | promise um |
1169s | but yeah so those are some of the new |
1171s | like building sets and armor sets that |
1173s | we'll be we'll be showing towards the |
1174s | end of the stream um but yeah so one of |
1176s | the first things that is new to chapter |
1178s | 4 is a seasonal event the secret hunt |
1182s | can we talk about that yeah um I |
1184s | wouldn't call it seasonal specifically |
1187s | uh but it is an event that uh we |
1189s | consider to be some like something of an |
1191s | evergreen event so right now during this |
1194s | age whenever the age comes out the event |
1195s | will be active and then at some point |
1197s | it'll go away and then it can come back |
1199s | again um we built it using the event |
1202s | system that we worked on uh whenever the |
1205s | sorcery release came out so we have the |
1208s | ability to create events and turn them |
1210s | on and off and this will be one of those |
1212s | things um it's an event with a a handful |
1215s | of unique content and rewards that you |
1217s | can only get while that event's |
1220s | active oops sweet so we are going to |
1223s | what is it the castle of Al Mariah or do |
1227s | we want to show off the uh uh like the |
1229s | camp and all that first let's see yeah |
1231s | let's go to the go to the hub yeah yeah |
1235s | yeah let's let's do it all |
1243s | right ah nice yes yeah so the way this |
1249s | this event kind of starts out will be |
1252s | one of two ways for you it'll be either |
1254s | you see the giant green beam in the sky |
1257s | uh which will guide you here uh you guys |
1260s | uh and gals might recognize this from |
1262s | the uh |
1264s | meosis Spire repurposed for this event |
1267s | so anytime you see a big beam in the sky |
1269s | uh you know there's probably something |
1270s | to find there and uh there's another |
1274s | form for this one however uh whenever it |
1276s | turns |
1278s | nighttime in the exiled l or syta you |
1281s | can be ambushed by we hyenas and killing |
1284s | those hyenas will give you a little |
1287s | Satchel of rewards and probably a map as |
1290s | well and the map will you know guide you |
1293s | to this |
1294s | location so you come here to find out |
1297s | what's going on after after you you get |
1299s | this you know cryptic uh Skin |
1301s | Map and uh you find some people you can |
1304s | speak with so we have several characters |
1306s | that we worked on for this uh event that |
1309s | are fully voice acted we also made a new |
1312s | dialogue system uh and this this |
1315s | character here is utilizing that new |
1316s | dialogue system you are welcome uh tell |
1319s | you about the event they will teach you |
1322s | how to use some recipes for the event |
1324s | that you might |
1325s | need and they also give you the option |
1327s | to opt out of the event so if you don't |
1330s | want to be attacked by where hyenas at |
1331s | night you can come here and say hey |
1335s | don't at wish to leave the hunt yep you |
1337s | can leave the hunt and whenever you come |
1340s | back and speak with her again you can |
1341s | join again and that'll just reenable |
1343s | those ambushes on |
1345s | you uh why you would want the ambushes |
1348s | they drop teeth |
1350s | um so whenever you collect those teeth |
1353s | you can bring them to this vendor and |
1355s | you can get a lot of different recipes |
1357s | uh you can get the the things at the top |
1359s | are for participating in the event so |
1361s | you know we've got that war paint the |
1363s | lore the potion and then the rest of the |
1365s | stuff is all cosmetic and um you know |
1370s | like weapon recipes |
1372s | placeables so there's a lot of really |
1374s | cool stuff in here that that we uh have |
1378s | put into the event |
1382s | M let's see so going from there once you |
1385s | know that and you learn more about the |
1387s | event uh she'll essentially teach you |
1390s | that there are some champions in the |
1391s | world um but maybe we should do a little |
1393s | bit of a rewind and talk about why this |
1396s | is happening in the first place |
1400s | so whenever the |
1403s | stigan came in the age of War and they |
1406s | plowed through the world and took a lot |
1409s | of people out you know leaving a lot of |
1411s | bodies in their wake one of the places |
1413s | that they kind of pillaged is the uh |
1417s | ruins of el Mariah which was once |
1419s | occupied by dogs of the desert you might |
1422s | remember |
1424s | and if you were to go to The Siege |
1428s | trying to remember exactly where it was |
1429s | sorry it's a little bit Northeast of |
1431s | where you're at |
1434s | um actually maybe we should use the |
1436s | Tableau as the point of reference I |
1438s | don't know oh yeah good they they took |
1441s | out a bunch of we hyenas whenever they |
1442s | came in and now some events have |
1446s | transpired that have has kind of |
1449s | recalled jebel's attention toward the |
1452s | world because those were hyenas were |
1455s | taken out and you'll be able to see that |
1459s | Tableau location play out in real life |
1462s | as well uh in terms of you know actually |
1464s | visiting the place sorry fake real life |
1466s | uh e- real life Exile lands real life |
1469s | yeah so you'll see uh in in the Tableau |
1472s | here um so the stigan have been defeated |
1475s | that's where we left off in chapter |
1476s | three right the Exiles have taken back |
1479s | the ruins of el Mariah in their timeline |
1482s | and uh they're they're kind of |
1484s | celebrating helping each other back up |
1486s | and then we move forward and |
1489s | find that continuing on someone has |
1493s | located a little bit of a weird entrance |
1496s | you know it's like Hey where's where's |
1498s | that what's oh what's this they go down |
1500s | further and see that there's a cave and |
1503s | then they keep going down oh they see |
1505s | there's some you know scary markings on |
1507s | the wall and some glowy mushrooms on the |
1510s | ground and they |
1513s | eventually make it to an |
1515s | alter now we can find all this |
1518s | underneath the the castle right can yeah |
1520s | yeah so if you follow through the table |
1523s | and go through to the end and and go to |
1526s | um you know the actual ruin themselves |
1529s | you'll be able to find that cave and |
1531s | that's kind of the you know the basis |
1533s | for all this starting um jbog is not |
1537s | happy that his followers have been wiped |
1539s | out |
1541s | and oh I'm so sorry yes terribly sorry |
1544s | about that and as a result uh his his |
1547s | great hunt has has uh been Unleashed |
1549s | upon the world so now we have all of |
1551s | these people kind of like in the |
1553s | midnight Grove vying for his uh his |
1555s | favor right they're trying to become the |
1557s | champion of jebil SG you're one of the |
1559s | people that can choose to try to become |
1560s | that champion so you'll go around the |
1562s | map find his Champions kill them and |
1565s | gather their teeth and earn his favor |
1567s | gather enough teeth and you can |
1569s | challenge his |

1575s | and become like you know the actual |
1578s | champion of jebl s and there are some |

1787s | [Music] |
1792s | use |
1794s | twin this is not the correct area h |
1799s | I could have sworn this is the correct |
1800s | area yeah it is but you need to find uh |
1804s | the rock oh I need to find the right |
1806s | location w o what could this be a |
1810s | peculiar |
1815s | Rock oh I should probably get myself a |
1818s | gear weapon |
1820s | huh let's give ourselves something |
1823s | cool think |
1827s | oops one |
1836s | sec okay now can I do |
1840s | it am I going to get |
1843s | attacked there we go that's more like it |
1845s | you're in creative mode still oh |
1848s | yes am I still cloaked no all right time |
1851s | to get my ass whooped a two skull |
1854s | boss oh yeah I haven't even like done |
1856s | any of my uh attributes or like that so |
1859s | this is going to be extremely funny oh |
1860s | wow you know there's another really |
1861s | important thing that you didn't do which |
1863s | is also explain to you that's |
1866s | true yeah so this is the so this is an |
1868s | example of what not to do right yeah |
1870s | exactly yeah oh that's right yeah I |
1873s | didn't get the right things at the Hub |
1875s | so anyway I'm just going to go die yeah |
1877s | yeah yeah that's right this is a this is |
1878s | old old call back here doink doink what |
1883s | are you doing whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa |
1885s | whoa toss oh okay |
1889s | so I I missed a key ingredient at the |
1891s | Hub because I wasn't reading because I |
1893s | have no thoughts and my head is empty |
1894s | but uh the idea there is that you you |
1897s | got to be naked and wear a certain |
1899s | specific war paint yeah so that's one of |
1901s | the things they tell you in order to uh |
1903s | you know get jebel's favor you need to |
1906s | slather yourselfself in his symbols and |
1908s | go without clothes so the whole event is |
1911s | done |
1912s | naked everything is naked |
1916s | alas rip |
1918s | so let's see I'm G to go get that war |
1921s | paint again so yeah apart from some of |
1924s | these Champions can you tell us more |
1926s | about the event |
1929s | itself some things |
1931s | that want to touch on let's see so going |
1934s | to go over here and get the things I |
1936s | need I see the panther is still marked |

2320s | check it out this update see what |
2322s | happens you never know who might come |
2324s | wandering through your door to order a |
2327s | drink at your establishment and a pizza |
2330s | and a |
2331s | pizza with pineapple with pine I was |
2336s | no |
2339s | okay so that is the season or sorry not |
2343s | not the correct word uh that is the |
2346s | sacred hunt a new event coming to |
2349s | chapter |
2350s | 4 uh we're not showing everything |
2353s | because we want you to figure everything |
2354s | out figure things out on your own but on |
2356s | that note uh of course you know the |
2359s | secret Hunt is about um you know the the |
2362s | the spilling of blood and and the the |
2364s | name of I suppose the the gr order of |
2366s | things and part of the Great order of |
2368s | things I think in the Conan universe is |
2370s | making the blood of your enemies flow |
2372s | and making heads roll and so we're |
2374s | finally adding that |
2377s | proper we got |
2379s | fatalities so can you tell us about the |
2381s | fatality system yeah definitely there's |
2384s | um a ton of work been put into the |
2387s | fatality system and we've tried a lot of |
2389s | different things and and versions of it |
2391s | and I think we landed somewhere pretty |
2394s | cool so every weapon right now |
2398s | has a unique kill animation for enemies |
2401s | that you uh that you otherwise would |
2404s | kill you can instead perform a fatality |
2406s | on them so whenever you take someone |
2410s | down and and you hit them to a point |
2412s | where they would have died they instead |
2414s | get suspended at one Health and they |
2417s | stay there for about five or six seconds |
2420s | um if you don't hit them they'll fall |
2421s | over but if you restart your combo on |
2424s | them it'll perform a fatality uh and |
2427s | also I can my since and's fighting a |
2429s | wolf I should point out that I'm dumb |
2430s | hold on I forgot to do my attrib destroy |
2432s | it again jeez I'm terrible man this game |
2435s | is rough this game is hard yeah |
2437s | sorry I'm terrible at this game hold on |
2439s | I forgot to set my attributes I have |
2441s | zero and |
2442s | everything so so yeah uh since Andy is |
2445s | fight was fighting a wolf and then got |
2446s | chomped in half um I'll point out that |
2448s | it only affects humans and it only |
2450s | affects NPCs so you can't perform a |
2452s | fatality on other |
2454s | players um but if you take an NPC down |
2457s | to the point where you would have killed |
2458s | them and they're human they might enter |
2460s | a sort of day state and during that day |
2463s | state if you attack them again from the |
2464s | start so you can't do it mid- combo uh |
2467s | you'll perform that fatality animation |
2469s | you'll get a big chunk of Health back |
2470s | you'll get some stamina back and you'll |
2472s | get a damage buff that lingers for a |
2474s | while I think it's about a minute or |
2477s | so |
2480s | um yeah it's bloody it's cool and bloody |
2483s | it is cool and bloody hon so am I the |
2485s | the visual novelty of it is is the more |
2487s | fun part I would |
2489s | say okay let's see if I can do this |
2492s | again maybe he's back for blood yep and |
2495s | I'm going to get bloody let's go uh oh |
2498s | God Mode's right there andy oh |
2501s | yeah just |
2503s | kidding I'm trying to do it like semi |
2506s | legit at the very least I know I know |
2508s | I'm sure I'm |
2509s | sure all right all right let's let's |
2511s | make this dude's head roll this is also |
2513s | a chance to happen when they die um so |
2516s | that's not going to be guaranteed a Kill |
2517s | kill every time and like I said um one |
2520s | of the benefits to this kind of way of |
2522s | doing the fatalities is that if you're |
2523s | in the middle of a combo where you're |
2525s | hitting a bunch of guys like you want to |
2526s | do wide sweeps and hit more than one |
2528s | enemy you can just opt out of it you can |
2530s | just keep doing the fat you can just |
2531s | keep doing the combo skip the fatality |
2534s | keep fighting normally and if they do |
2536s | enter that state that day State |
2540s | uh trying do the |
2543s | fatality you can't so whenever the fat |
2547s | so oh sorry sorry sorry you're fine |
2548s | you're fine you're fine yeah Nicole |
2549s | asked if you could be damaged during the |
2551s | finisher but no once the fatality |
2553s | animation starts you basically are given |
2555s | immunity during that animation and |
2558s | whenever you reach a certain point um |
2560s | you're no longer immune oh I didn't get |
2563s | the thing off dang oh |
2565s | wow what H what am I doing it's |
2574s | open dink dink let me kill you you |
2578s | please all |
2582s | right there we go wait will you let me |
2585s | do it |
2587s | yeah y so there goes his head and then |
2591s | every weapon type gets their own unique |
2592s | fatality right now so there's just the |
2594s | one per per weapon but they're all very |
2597s | juicy very |
2599s | chunky do havoc in Malice hm havoc and |
2602s | Malice a what do havoc and Malice |
2606s | oh |
2613s | we be the dudes to |
2618s | Rend nope they're only for melee |
2623s | weapons Let's uh also |
2631s | okay let's clear this clear this mob |
2634s | real quick a |
2636s | dang |
2638s | get out here dog what the dog doing I'm |
2642s | sorry all |
2650s | right |
2652s | yeah oh and then I get a little fatality |
2654s | buff you can see in the top right or top |
2656s | left |
2658s | corner all right so each weapon has its |
2661s | own unique fatality animation you're |
2663s | were saying yep each weapon type so you |
2665s | know two-handed sword gets one one sword |
2668s | axes maces ooh Katana yep Katana oh yeah |
2673s | that's what's |
2674s | up and then um this runs on like a like |
2677s | a paired emote system right and that |
2679s | actually kind of helps us enable other |
2681s | like potential ideas that we were |
2682s | wanting to do cuz I think a long time |
2685s | ago we wanted to do like a like a pet |
2686s | emotes I can't promise anything but I |
2688s | think I wanted to say those kinds of |
2690s | things are like kind of contingent on |
2692s | parody emotes which is like fatalities I |
2694s | guess it's not that direct oh gotcha but |
2697s | you know the application could be |
2699s | similar yeah that's my that's my |
2701s | personal wish list thing give me let me |
2703s | pet the dog |
2704s | please Dev please please let me pet dog |
2706s | please please pleas please |
2709s | please |
2711s | sorry so yeah okay |
2715s | um all right so we got fatalities we got |
2718s | bloody stuff uh oh uh one of the other |
2721s | overhauls that we're doing we'll get to |
2723s | the UI stuff in a minute but I know |
2725s | there was some new inventory UI stuff |
2727s | that some people saw but we also have |
2729s | some new follower UI or you know |
2732s | follower uh like functionality in |
2734s | general got uh overhauled with the |
2738s | update as well can you can you give us |
2740s | more like any insight on how that kind |
2741s | of stuff works yeah as soon as you have |
2743s | a follower it'll become pretty clear as |
2745s | well yeah yeah yeah um but we |
2748s | took we we knew we were doing UI updates |
2751s | during this update and we decided that |
2755s | there was a lot of follower stuff we |
2756s | wanted to address as well |
2758s | and like responsiveness of your follower |
2760s | is one of the big ones so now if you if |
2763s | you interact with a follower uh you get |
2766s | this UI in the Middle where instead of |
2768s | having to interact with them and hold |
2769s | down a radial wheel to change their |
2771s | tactics and everything you get it all in |
2773s | one sheet right here and you can just go |
2775s | through and change the way you you want |
2776s | them to behave so you can determine how |
2779s | far away they follow you how far away |
2780s | they should attack things or chase |
2782s | things away yeah it's a lot more |
2783s | granular than I I recall from the radio |
2785s | menus as well so it's really you can |
2788s | like set all that stuff like on your own |
2790s | and and the cooler thing is that these |
2792s | behaviors of course have memory so you |
2794s | can set a guard to be defensive and stay |
2797s | you know in the spot that you put them |
2799s | if they're not following you anymore but |
2801s | when they're following you if you want |
2802s | them to be aggressive they can you know |
2804s | go out and attack everything that you |
2806s | that you know you see so uh and and you |
2810s | know if you if you make the fall th the |
2812s | th follow you before it would wipe the |
2814s | behavior and set it to a specific one |
2816s | and then you put them back in the world |
2817s | and it goes back to default now it just |
2820s | remains what you said it to um there's |
2823s | also updates to the actual radio wheel |
2825s | and the commands that you you use with |
2827s | them um so if any can if you can uh hold |
2832s | down e now to see the wheel um the wheel |
2835s | itself uses this kind of built-in |
2837s | navigation so you don't have to find |
2839s | your cursor on the screen and click on a |
2842s | little button you get a a much more |
2844s | grounded uh radial selection and we've |
2847s | applied this to radials across the game |
2849s | as |
2850s | well |
2852s | and with the commands if you can go back |
2854s | to the commands you can see they have a |
2856s | a short list of commands that that um |
2858s | they can do so the one that's go here |
2861s | that's contextualized that's the one |
2862s | that's also like you know you can also |
2864s | attack things um if you can back off and |
2867s | just look at the actual commands again |
2869s | then we've got the sorry sorry yeah yeah |
2872s | radio wheel away from him oh my bad my |
2875s | bad right right so you can see there's |
2876s | the the flea uh sorry there's go here |
2878s | defend here and flee um go here I |
2880s | believe is the one that's contextualized |
2882s | so it will change to attack if you if |
2883s | you were looking at something um or at |
2885s | least the regular command does if you |
2887s | just look at something interact um flee |
2889s | will cause the follower to try to |
2891s | disengage and return to you so before if |
2895s | you remember trying to use the return |
2897s | command uh they would wait like two |
2899s | seconds and then start to run towards |
2901s | you and then get distracted or hit by |
2904s | something uh or you press the button |
2906s | again and it resets to be behavior and |
2907s | none of that stuff happens anymore so |
2909s | now if you say flee come you know saying |
2911s | come back to me they're going to get |
2912s | away from what they're fighting yeah it |
2915s | will be the same on consoles as well um |
2919s | so the other thing that you can't see |
2921s | but you will feel whenever you get this |
2923s | update is that this radial menu pops up |
2926s | really fast and you can cue the input |
2928s | for uh what you want it to do so Andy |
2931s | can tell it to you know it's it's almost |
2933s | like to draw a point of comparison like |
2936s | using the Ping system in Apex where you |
2938s | hold the button down and you know it's |
2940s | coming up so you move in the right |
2941s | direction and as soon as you let go it |
2942s | does that attack so it's incredibly |
2944s | Snappy compared to the way it was before |
2947s | and it doesn't require an input to |
2948s | validate the action it'll just validate |
2950s | on |
2952s | release just like that yeah so I'm |
2954s | holding it then and then all I do is |
2955s | just like kind of gesture towards the |
2957s | the direction that I want with the |
2959s | mouse yeah and this is just on Ming |
2961s | keyboard it's pretty it's reasonably |
2962s | responsive like I like it and I'm not |
2964s | much of a console like gam pad user |
2966s | myself but I I imagine it's also |
2968s | extremely I mean it's the whole controls |
2973s | use radials in general so you can still |
2975s | use the old commands um so if you just |
2978s | want to you know use interact to tell |
2980s | them to attack or did my thr or come |
2982s | back I think that we did change the |
2984s | order of what um a lot of people might |
2987s | not even know this exists but if you |
2988s | single tap interact versus double tap |
2990s | versus triple tap it'll do different |
2992s | things and I think we did change it so |
2995s | it used to be that move was part of that |
2996s | and that's not there anymore but I I |
2998s | think that single tap is go or attack |
3001s | and double tap is return um and there is |
3005s | still a triple tap command but I'm not |
3007s | sure if I'm mixing it up with go and |
3009s | return so you know you you can |
3010s | experiment with it really quickly and |
3012s | see exactly which commands do which for |
3013s | me I'm it's I'm just all about attack |
3015s | and return |
3019s | personally yeah flee okay so if you |
3021s | triple tap it does |
3023s | flee po cannot move there |
3026s | please please you're drunk drunken |
3028s | pirate fighter or drunken pirate Fighter |
3030s | 3 you're drunk to return to flee to |
3036s | me that's cool I really like these |
3042s | shortcuts so if I have two followers for |
3045s | example if I have like Max Authority and |
3046s | stuff like that do both um do both uh |
3049s | follow those orders at the same time |
3050s | like if I triple tap do both my |
3051s | followers come back to me yeah just like |
3053s | it would have been before they follow |
3054s | the same order list cool cool I turn it |
3056s | to daytime cuz is dark it's impossible |
3058s | to see the screen right now sorry about |
3060s | that |
3063s | okay so sweet yeah uh we know these |
3065s | kinds of like quality life things are |
3067s | generally oh yeah yeah I guess it's also |
3069s | worth mentioning like the equipment um |
3071s | panel over there on the other side got |
3073s | got some love as well too um so you can |
3076s | see all their stuff on this side info |
3078s | and their stats right on that |
3082s | page oh yeah and there's a you can just |
3084s | take call from them all right cool |
3086s | thanks |
3088s | okay |
3089s | great so hopefully folks who are really |
3092s | into controlling their thrs are moving |
3095s | them around is hopefully they're uh |
3097s | hopefully this makes it a lot easier to |
3099s | manage them because I know you |
3100s | micromanaging them can be a lot |
3105s | sometimes okay so one of the things |
3108s | that's coming in chapter 4 um we're on |
3111s | exod LS right now so there's a couple |
3112s | small new camps in syta uh we'll try to |
3115s | show some footage of that uh I don't |
3117s | have anything immediately handy right |
3118s | now unfortunately but basically they're |
3120s | like uh kind of inspired by uh the siege |
3123s | of Al Mariah they're both uh similar in |
3126s | their um like construction I suppose in |
3130s | that that they're destructible like NPC |
3132s | bases but they're much smaller in scale |
3134s | and scope uh a for complexity and also B |
3137s | for like performance reasons as well uh |
3140s | you know when you have big buildings |
3141s | like that that you know lots of lots of |
3142s | things going on lots lots of |
3143s | calculations going on that everyone has |
3145s | to see yeah they they behave a lot more |
3148s | like regular camps too because um they |
3151s | don't have a constant onslaught of |
3152s | enemies like The Siege does um you know |
3154s | the siege is a very unique piece of |
3156s | content and we we've always wanted to |
3158s | use that same building system to just |
3160s | make smaller camps um that you you could |
3163s | you know Siege and and take what's out |
3165s | of it with the the tools that you have |
3168s | so if you um visit those camps on ZTA |
3171s | you'll see that they're much smaller |
3173s | they're constructed like a almost like a |
3174s | player would construct a base you know |
3176s | they use the same building pieces and |
3178s | they're filled with enemies that will |
3179s | die and not respawn till sometime later |
3180s | just like a normal camp in the game with |
3183s | like the standard 15 minut a dang I saw |
3187s | someone in chat asking for the the great |
3189s | Axe uh finisher so you can just spawn |
3192s | like a ton of do nothings okay and he'll |
3196s | hit them all in one hit all in the same |
3198s | spot fatality okay Co I might want to |
3202s | get rid of your follower though |
3204s | aggressive me let them be we're showing |
3207s | off how how good the the controls are |
3210s | I'm just going to kill the follower it's |
3211s | they're not going to live anyway it's |
3213s | fine the time has come their time has |
3216s | come so can can NPCs perform finishers |
3218s | on you |
3221s | no come here we talked about |
3224s | it a I didn't get to him in time |
3227s | follower blocked |
3231s | me come on come on give me a chance give |
3234s | it to |
3235s | me there |
3237s | you oh |
3239s | what restart yeah yeah what's up can |
3242s | they hear me okay I don't know if it's |
3244s | one that you able to answer Denis but uh |
3245s | someone was asking if there is a |
3247s | possibly in the future we could get a |
3248s | command for your following thr all to |
3250s | attempt to flee if you're |
3252s | killed that's a possibility at all oh so |
3254s | there I I wish that I had more |
3257s | information about this off the the top |
3259s | of my head but I let's just say yeah |
3262s | we'll say that for now oh that's great |
3264s | it is a possibility there can be some |
3267s | more stuff coming and there might be |
3268s | some stuff baked into their behavior now |
3270s | that kind of pads that blow a little |
3275s | bit squish squish fatality finish |
3282s | him okay uh so let's see but yeah so uh |
3287s | the the small buildings they uh enemies |
3290s | don't respawn until the base resets uh |
3292s | base resets occur if no one is |
3294s | nearby the bosses uh defeated no players |
3297s | are nearby I think those are the same |
3298s | rules as elarai I'm not sure |
3301s | exactly but I don't think the boss needs |
3304s | to be defeated for them to resp got got |
3306s | got you just have to not be there |
3307s | basically gotcha cool okay and then |
3312s | moving on |
3313s | hopefully we'll try to show some of the |
3315s | SI the camps uh in future social media |
3319s | content also you can just check it again |
3320s | online right now uh all this content is |
3323s | available for you to check out right now |
3325s | on public beta and will be coming out |
3326s | April |
3327s | second uh so in addition so okay we |
3329s | still have more things to cover that's |
3331s | uh in terms of like features and balance |
3333s | stuff uh we have new Purge encounters uh |
3336s | mostly focused on like high level purges |
3338s | I believe uh so there's four new |
3341s | encounters if I recall |
3343s | correctly there's oh sorry yeah you give |
3347s | it a rundown yeah sorry sorry so um |
3350s | we've got a wave of Thieves that will |
3351s | come in and the we the thieves are |
3353s | cloaked by the invisibility spell |
3355s | they'll try to sneak past everybody |
3357s | unlock your doors and go straight to the |
3359s | treasure to pick it up and carry it |
3361s | out um there are Champion enemies that |
3364s | essentially have a kind of like a an |
3367s | Entourage that comes with them uh |
3369s | they're they're a bit beefed up compared |
3370s | to your your normal uh enemies and they |
3374s | they move in formations so when you see |
3376s | it it'll stand out it's pretty cool um |
3379s | we have a Golem wave there's actually a |
3383s | couple Golem waves but one of them is is |
3385s | Jarhead Golems that will come as kind of |
3387s | a Siege mechanic to try to blow your |
3390s | walls |
3391s | up and there's also a really cool wave |
3396s | with a sorcerer that spawns and you can |
3399s | see their yeah so here's some some uh |
3402s | those look like Jarhead |
3403s | Golems uh there's a glare on the screen |
3405s | so it's a little hard to see but um so |
3409s | they'll they'll come in and try to blow |
3410s | your walls up and then the last wave |
3412s | that we have is one that a a sorcerer |
3415s | will spawn and begin to summon a meteor |
3419s | from the the sky and Rain meteors on |
3422s | your base so very destructive very cool |
3426s | let's see if show some of that off too |
3432s | yeah yes the the meteors can be |
3434s | harvested there are definitely different |
3435s | types of meteors in there they uh little |
3439s | they can be stopped as well you're not |
3441s | guaranteed to just be smashed by meteors |
3443s | because they're there so it's a thing to |
3447s | keep an eye out for so is this uh is |
3450s | this meteor guy is this whole casting |
3452s | animation like a call back to spell |
3453s | weaving from Age Of |
3455s | Conan uh not directly it it is it is |
3458s | really intentionally meant to draw your |
3461s | eye so it's a lot harder to miss because |
3463s | the destruction will |
3466s | be significant pretty pretty massive |
3468s | yeah let me uh let's see here what can |
3470s | we ah |
3473s | yeah so this is a yeah this is a video |
3475s | of the base that we were in earli |
3477s | uh in the introduction and yeah this is |
3478s | the meteor Mage just like opening |
3483s | up there they are |
3489s | yeah so this should be uh fun to |
3494s | defend yeah it's it's a highle mechanic |
3497s | I believe it's nine and 10 um don't |
3500s | quote |
3504s | me it's raining |
3507s | it's well I was going to say it's |
3509s | raining men but it's not it's raining |
3512s | fire could be raining Golems wait I |
3514s | think that's are |
3518s | fun yeah yeah so there are some Golems |
3521s | you know making contact with the |
3524s | walls and they're |
3530s | exploding so these and more you can |
3533s | expect with high level purges coming to |
3534s | you in chapter 4 |
3537s | um and then also something you may have |
3540s | seen from the intro as well is a new |
3543s | Siege weapon the ballista oh there they |
3545s | go exploding everywhere very |
3548s | good okay so yeah let's check out the |
3550s | ballista real quick got to go to the |
3554s | base oh there's so much to cover oh my |
3556s | goodness uh okay go over here so the |
3560s | ballista ballista is a brand new uh |
3562s | Siege uh structure that players can |
3565s | build uh it is is uh it requires a |
3568s | trebuchet base I believe but then when |
3571s | you build on top of it you of course can |
3574s | where is it where is it where is it |
3575s | there it |
3577s | is yeah so we actually renamed the |
3579s | trebuchet base uh you've got your siege |
3581s | foundation and now there's a Siege |
3583s | weapon base oh gotcha okay so you build |
3585s | either once you place the weapon base |
3587s | down you can build up either ballista or |
3589s | a trebuchet from that um ballista |
3592s | unlocks a little bit earlier uh I |
3594s | believe it's 10 levels later |
3597s | and uh the engineer feed is a |
3599s | prerequisite so you'll have to know how |
3601s | to make those trebuchets to begin with |
3603s | to be able to make |
3605s | it uh it's pretty fun uh so yeah like |
3608s | Andy showing now you can literally jump |
3611s | into it and pilot it aim it around it's |
3614s | a lot easier to hit targets with than |
3616s | the ballista is it has a little bit |
3618s | different purpose though um the ballista |
3621s | will or sorry the Treet will deal a lot |
3623s | of you know Splash damage hit a lot of |
3625s | stuff over a bit area and the ballista |
3628s | is a lot more focused so you can see uh |
3631s | Andy can see the inventory of what can |
3632s | be crafted right now and there are balls |
3635s | and bolts and the bolts are really |
3638s | anti-personnel they're very very strong |
3640s | against people and uh other Wildlife you |
3644s | know monsters and the bolts are are or |
3647s | sorry the balls are really a Siege |
3649s | device so if you want to knock down some |
3651s | doors or walls you want to use the balls |
3653s | instead um the other hidden |
3657s | functionality of the ballista is that it |
3659s | absolutely annihilates avatars so a star |
3662s | metal |
3663s | bolt uh with a full charge on the |
3665s | ballista like Andy's charging it up |
3667s | right now which increases the range and |
3669s | damage that the ammunition deals it'll |
3671s | kill an avatar and two bolts so you can |
3674s | have two ready and loaded up and just |
3676s | take them out as the avatars come up as |
3678s | an anti- avatar defense if you're |
3681s | present um but yeah now that he's |
3683s | piloting it he just has to hold down |
3685s | right Mouse uh you know Tim heavy attack |
3688s | to charge it up it saves its its memory |
3692s | over you know the duration of the charge |
3694s | so if you let go halfway it might scoot |
3696s | forward a little bit but you'll hear a |
3698s | notch click and it'll it'll lock in I |
3700s | missed uh and then just fire just normal |
3703s | attack to fire |
3706s | it so yeah I'm just holding on right |
3708s | Mouse |
3710s | button and then presumably yeah like |
3712s | when when a big old Avatar is knocking |
3714s | at my door I can just shoot at it see if |
3715s | I can get this no I don't want to kill |
3717s | Panthers on the I already killed one |
3719s | Panther okay so there's a bunch of |
3721s | bullet drop okay yeah that's fine it |
3723s | does have good range but you do have to |
3725s | correct for the the fall off oh no I |
3727s | can't seem to get out all right I'll |
3728s | just blow it up that's there it's out |
3729s | great we did |
3732s | it and you can push it around too so you |
3734s | can you can aim in a bit of a cone uh in |
3737s | front of it and you can push the siege |
3739s | foundation around just like a trebuchet |
3741s | to get you know major |
3745s | retargeting |
3747s | play uh people are asking if there's a |
3748s | chance that we'll see THS being put on |
3750s | ball list in the future yeah so that was |
3752s | part of our plan and like we wanted to |
3754s | ship it for this update but we didn't |
3756s | get those done 100% in time so it is |
3760s | likely that in the future THS will be |
3762s | able to man both trebuchet and ballista |
3765s | as uh you know base defense |
3767s | options oh there's also a little bit of |
3770s | more cool stuff about it too uh it's |
3772s | it's probably going to be really hard to |
3773s | show here but there's actually |
3774s | penetration on the bolts and and and the |
3777s | balls too so like if you have if like |
3779s | you set this up to defend against a |
3781s | purge and there's like a row of enemies |
3783s | coming in uh you can charge up a |
3785s | Ballista and you |
3787s | know yeah it'll Blaster them all and |
3790s | knock them all down to the sides and |
3791s | stuff there's knockdown on |
3793s | it my |
3796s | fantasy very good thank |
3799s | you okay yeah and then yeah I see some |
3801s | people in chat asking like hey can we |
3803s | see some stuff in the season pass can we |
3804s | see some of stuff in the space we will |
3805s | get to that sorry there's still there's |
3806s | still a couple things we wanted to get |
3808s | to gameplay wise before we start talking |
3810s | about the other stuff I know there's |
3811s | there's a lot to talk about in the |
3812s | Stream um see okay we got we got the |
3815s | siege item next up okay we uh if you |
3819s | were watching towards the beginning of |
3821s | the stream you saw some what appears to |
3823s | be some changes with the uh player menu |
3826s | and inventory management so now you want |
3828s | to jump into talking about what actually |
3830s | these are yeah there's a lot here and |
3833s | I'm definitely not going to hit |
3835s | everything so if if you want to |
3837s | experience it you know wait for the |
3839s | update or check out the the public beta |
3841s | because it's all there as of yesterday |
3842s | as Andy said um a lot of this started as |
3848s | friction that we had in play tests with |
3850s | like just trying to manipulate stuff in |
3852s | our inventory easily um and a lot of the |
3855s | time with Gamepad like we try to split |
3856s | our time between mouse and keyboard and |
3858s | controllers so we can see what it's like |
3860s | on both sides of the fence and on |
3862s | controller it was really rough so um we |
3866s | did some stuff that we think benefit |
3867s | both and some of the biggest stuff is |
3871s | like the the functionality of buttons |
3873s | across the bottom of the screen is |
3874s | standardized now so if there's an input |
3877s | or action for an item type that button's |
3880s | always in the same place it doesn't |
3881s | really just like disappear uh you know |
3884s | we've got a placeholder for things that |
3885s | literally don't have an action but it |
3887s | should be much less confusing like what |
3889s | an item actually can do when you select |
3890s | it in your |
3892s | inventory um we change like stack |
3895s | splitting uh the the fastest way to |
3897s | split stuff is literally just to right |
3898s | click it now so uh you know we find that |
3901s | most of the time when we're splitting |
3903s | stuff we're not trying to get pull one |
3904s | out of the stack we're trying to get to |
3906s | a you know a a lesser number of what is |
3909s | usually a stack of hundreds or thousands |
3912s | um so it's much faster to split and move |
3914s | items |
3915s | now uh one of the super coolest things |
3918s | is the quick stack function so Andy I |
3920s | don't know if you want to place down a |
3923s | um I don't but what sorry okay container |
3926s | if you can open any any container or a |
3928s | crafting station whatever anything that |
3929s | has an |
3930s | inventory um sure yeah let's see we we |
3934s | added a thing called quick stack which |
3936s | means it will take anything from your |
3938s | inventory that's already in a container |
3940s | and move the rest of them in so if you |
3943s | just move one of those five stacks of |
3945s | iron bars over and a stack of the the |
3948s | shaped |
3949s | wood um you see there's a button on the |
3951s | bottom of his inventory called quick |
3952s | stack if he clicks that it'll move all |
3954s | the iron and shaped wood from his |
3955s | inventory into the |
3959s | uh well it it should move it all into |
3962s | there it's an internal build sorry still |
3964s | still you know it's not not finished yet |
3966s | but that's the intent sorry we're we're |
3967s | on a beta build oh rip uh try actually |
3970s | just try with a regular container cuz I |
3972s | I kind of Wonder Maybe the bench it's |
3974s | just the bench yeah might be because |
3975s | it's a dismantling bench yeah that's my |
3977s | bad of course I didn't pick a container |
3979s | and I picked the the most like one of |
3981s | the weirder ones let's |
3984s | see sure why not |
3990s | hello please |
3995s | please there you get a cabinet right at |
3997s | the front |
4001s | door okay quick |
4006s | stack bam there we |
4009s | go so that makes moving stuff into |
4011s | containers a lot easier |
4014s | um that's really cool I really like that |
4017s | yeah yeah and you see it changes it |
4019s | changes into a give all button so if you |
4021s | click it once and you actually want to |
4022s | move everything you can move move |
4023s | everything |
4025s | over |
4027s | um I really like that yeah there's so |
4029s | much that goes into this one item |
4031s | filters um sorting items is a lot |
4033s | different now um if you could just like |
4035s | go back into the admin panel and sorry |
4036s | to ask you for more stuff but give |
4038s | yourself like some random stuff weapons |
4040s | armors you know |
4044s | building there you go |
4047s | you got it's on your action bar okay |
4049s | yeah stick it in your inventory and then |
4051s | um so we changed the way filtering and |
4054s | sorting works and if you go up to the |
4056s | type bar up there for sorting um |
4059s | whenever he selects like heaviest first |
4062s | for instance you'll see It'll Resort |
4064s | everything like it would have normally |
4065s | um if you go back to no sorting it'll |
4068s | actually keep that sorting so you don't |
4070s | you don't lose the Sorting that's there |
4072s | and now you can move stuff around within |
4074s | that that uh filter that you previously |
4077s | chose |
4079s | um and everything sorted by type is like |
4083s | really logically thought out now instead |
4085s | of just being a random uh you know |
4088s | mishmash of of what order things would |
4090s | be in we tried to sort things so you can |
4092s | see Andy's got uh in his inventory when |
4094s | sorting by type he's got all like the uh |
4097s | like a lot of the raw crafting like |
4099s | plant stuff up top and then he's got all |
4101s | the bees and then all the the weapons |
4103s | all it's all just grouped together |
4105s | basically |
4107s | um and then the buttons are dynamic as |
4109s | well so you can see he has four item |
4111s | filters at the top up now uh it's based |
4114s | on the stuff that's actually in his |
4115s | inventory so you can turn those on and |
4117s | off cool just to get a finer view of |
4120s | what exactly is actually in your |
4121s | inventory oh noher armor is a consumable |
4125s | understood technically true |
4129s | yeah people are tools to be used I'm a |
4132s | tool I know |
4134s | that |
4139s | uh then on the other panel we've got the |
4140s | whole other panel over there as well too |
4142s | where if you just click on one of the |
4143s | recipes you could see um hopefully more |
4145s | clearly what it takes to actually make |
4147s | that item is like one of the main the |
4148s | main goals there so we try to |
4150s | communicate the inventory about the |
4152s | selection uh a little bit better and |
4154s | what it takes to make it a little bit |
4155s | better as |
4157s | well yeah it's great to see it just like |
4159s | all the requirements just right there |
4161s | and take some of the guess work out |
4164s | which is good |
4169s | yeah that's great yeah hopefully I'm not |
4172s | forgetting anything major but there is a |
4173s | lot to |
4177s | it I'm sure we forgot something there's |
4179s | so there's so much to cover here sure |
4182s | whacker eradication is just like no no |
4183s | talk about the |
4185s | thing uh okay so that quality life |
4190s | stuff uh I actually think that covers |
4193s | all the gameplay stuff going on maybe |
4195s | unless there's more stuff that you want |
4196s | to show off too that's what I had on my |
4198s | notes oh |
4201s | yeah so there's that you know when we |
4203s | did the last patch um there was a lot of |
4205s | uproar about not being automatically |
4208s | like your character not automatically |
4210s | facing while you're rotating or when |
4212s | you're attacking so if you just come |
4214s | into the gameplay options and turn on |
4215s | that autof face forward on attack it'll |
4217s | follow your cursor like it did in uh |
4219s | chapter two two |
4221s | yeah oh yeah that's nice I like that |
4226s | oh thank |
4230s | you thanks Dennis yeah wow |
4233s | the D are listening it's amazing thanks |
4236s | Dennis appreciate it I I know this was |
4238s | like a like really hot topic with folks |
4240s | um you know after chapter 3 launched uh |
4242s | and so you know we we are listening we |
4245s | are working on making things good like |
4246s | you know at the end of the day we want |
4247s | to make a game that's fun to play |
4250s | so all |
4252s | right um so let's see is there uh and |
4255s | then I think oh hold on I think we're |
4256s | also speaking stamina a tiny bit too |
4258s | sorry one other thing sorry someone did |
4259s | ask what about magnetic foes um I went |
4262s | through |
4264s | a number of enemies in the game and and |
4267s | fixed their rotation so they shouldn't |
4269s | be as magnetic I didn't do every enemy |
4272s | in the game so there may be some that we |
4275s | that are still too hard or not um to |
4278s | give you guys a baseline we actually |
4280s | pulled data for enemies that had a |
4284s | significantly higher kill death ratio |
4285s | than they did before the patch and I hit |
4288s | um a combination of those enemies that |
4290s | were you know really egregious and the |
4293s | ones that are involved in the event as |
4294s | well so we could be sure that the stuff |
4296s | that people will see the most during |
4298s | this update will have the most uh |
4300s | forgiving rotation and if there's other |
4302s | stuff that you see that feels like a |
4304s | problem to you just report it to us and |
4306s | you know we can take a look it doesn't |
4307s | take terribly long to make the |
4309s | adjustments uh but as always it's bound |
4311s | to our relase schedule so once we do see |
4313s | it and see that people want something |
4315s | adjusted or or think that it should be |
4316s | you know we can assess if if we agree |
4318s | and it'll come out in an update yeah |
4321s | yeah see how we can fit it into our |
4322s | schedule cuz we're always working on |
4323s | like stuff and you know the people that |
4325s | would fix stuff is also working on new |
4326s | stuff so it's it's just a matter of like |
4328s | juggling and allocating resources |
4329s | properly yeah someone asked what's the |
4331s | enemy that kills the most players I |
4333s | don't have the one that kills the most |
4335s | players but the one that had the highest |
4337s | increase I believe was the Imp King that |
4340s | went up like 300% or something like that |
4344s | um his charge attack was absolutely |
4346s | bananas like he could spin in circles |
4348s | and and chase people with It Go imp King |
4352s | hell yeah and you know coupled with the |
4354s | fact that he's probably fighting people |
4355s | that are naked and maybe haven't played |
4357s | the game before you know it's easy to |
4362s | understand and I think uh what is it I |
4364s | think in addition to some of this stuff |
4365s | we're we're making a couple tweaks to |
4367s | stamina recharge rates or something I'm |
4369s | not really sure I know we tested some of |
4371s | that it's actually pretty minor um I |
4374s | don't it might even be hard to notice if |
4376s | if people are watching but if you exit |
4377s | creative mode um so there's there's kind |
4381s | of two things stamina yeah yeah you'll |
4383s | want to do that um there's there's two |
4385s | things um the first is that rolling |
4387s | thrust had the stamina bonus removed so |
4391s | I don't have roll bound sorry yeah it's |
4393s | it's okay if you do rolling thrust now |
4395s | you'll still get a penetration buff but |
4397s | you won't get a stammer reduction on the |
4398s | next attack and the other thing um which |
4404s | is it's percept cable but I think it's |
4407s | it's generally hard to tell is that |
4410s | stamina doesn't regenerate in .1 seconds |
4413s | after you start after you spend it or |
4415s | deplete it now it waits one full second |
4417s | so technically it's 10 times longer uh |
4420s | but uh or you know but it's it's a very |
4424s | brief when you play it yeah in in in |
4428s | practice it's a lot more it's one of |
4429s | those things that you look at the |
4430s | numbers and the patch notes and you're |
4431s | like that's an insane difference you |
4433s | know but when you play it you know you |
4435s | can't can feel it there it does feel |
4437s | like there's a little more grit in |
4438s | combat there's a little bit more weight |
4441s | yeah there there's a little bit more uh |
4443s | commitment to what your actions are but |
4445s | uh it comes back very fast still and the |
4448s | big thing and the best thing about this |
4450s | uh is that it it was specifically to |
4452s | find a natural way to prevent infinite |
4455s | roll spamming so you can still roll |
4458s | forever but in some cases you'll be |
4460s | forced to wait that that you know |
4463s | whatever one seconds plus the time to |
4465s | regenerate the stamina back because you |
4467s | know you've gone into to stamina debt so |
4469s | you need to regenerate what you can't |
4470s | see and then you need to add that second |
4472s | on top of it as well so um you can still |
4476s | roll a lot but you can't roll forever uh |
4479s | with no break and when it comes to |
4483s | balancing that break like we're really |
4486s | on the edge of a knife here if we make |
4487s | it too |
4488s | long it will be a problem for a lot of |
4491s | people if we make it too short I mean |
4493s | it's already too short so you already |
4495s | see how that that's a problem so I'm |
4497s | trying to just nudge it in the right |
4499s | direction instead of making it you |
4502s | swinging too far one way or the |
4508s | other people are rioting they want to |
4510s | see that dog the dog they want to see |
4512s | the big the DOR yeah all right it's a |
4514s | good dog it is a good dog it's a very |
4516s | good dog maybe one of the best we've |
4518s | made I think Andy's lost I am lost I'm |
4521s | always you know you know just because |
4524s | I'm wandering doesn't I'm lost just |
4527s | finding myself thank |
4529s | you any new romance |
4532s | options no the dog oh someone else was |
4536s | like well if there's an M King is there |
4537s | an M Queen momy it's you yeah it's you |
4540s | you're the M Queen |
4543s | slay |
4545s | okay it's a |
4547s | dog this is one of the one of the new |
4549s | pet canet that dog can I pet the |
4551s | unfortunately we can't pet the dog it's |
4554s | a good dog though |
4557s | can I make a follow me follow me please |
4560s | so yeah zingari and dark guard dog uh so |
4562s | yeah let's look at some more of the |
4564s | stuff that's coming in the bizaar and |
4566s | the battle pass so we saw some of the |
4567s | Tableau but here's a preview of some of |
4569s | the new items that are coming by |
4571s | zingaran mercenary armor is the rank one |
4573s | reward for the chapter 4 battle pass |
4575s | that's what uh oops well that's what I |
4578s | was wearing but you can't see me because |
4579s | I turn myself invisible but we have a |
4581s | general theme for battle passes usually |
4583s | and this one is in Garin mhm um you know |
4586s | which is kind of |
4587s | uh like historically Spanish themed yeah |
4591s | I saw some people in chat saying like oh |
4593s | looks like like canist the door arm or |
4594s | something like that it's like yeah yeah |
4596s | mhm everything Howard wrote is basically |
4599s | based on something else that already |
4600s | happened so um all of his cultures have |
4605s | an an a real world analog uh for the |
4607s | most |
4610s | part yeah the rap here is really cool I |
4613s | it's one that like I was hesitant to add |
4614s | a rap for a very long time cuz I was |
4616s | like oh that could be an entire weapon |
4618s | type uh But as time goes on and and you |
4621s | know we don't invest in adding different |
4622s | weapon types and animations it's just |
4624s | more makes more sense to give cool |
4626s | weapon skins and if we ever add them we |
4628s | can just convert |
4630s | it people love them poking swords that |
4634s | was a big big I don't know how to |
4636s | pronounce it correctly EP ep the not |
4639s | quite a Rapier but it's another like |
4641s | Pokey sword It's featured prominently in |
4643s | many Souls games I'm also just very EP |

5293s | yeah you won't find out ah you won't I |
5295s | think you saw the uh oh this is the ENT |
5298s | oh hi guys I think you saw the main |
5300s | stuff though with the |
5302s | uh okay the stigan room is really what |
5306s | there is to see down |
5309s | here that and plenty more coming at you |
5312s | I think that's a new ladder too if I'm |
5313s | not oh is it yeah yeah that's the iron |
5316s | ladder to match the uh super set lost |
5319s | dungeon ladder yeah oh wait okay didn't |
5322s | remove think good |
5324s | good my bud my |
5327s | bud |
5331s | hello all right that's a lot okay uh and |
5335s | then even more hold on are there other |
5338s | what are any other good outfits that you |
5340s | remember let's see oh yeah and then we |
5343s | have some uh like remix of some uh some |
5345s | of the original like one of the original |
5347s | like demon like it's like the fake demon |
5350s | set or something like that I |
5353s | forget but yeah we have we have some |
5355s | variants of uh some classic stuff coming |
5358s | back and then I think actually in the |
5359s | bizar right now a bunch of bunch of |
5361s | stuff is being rotated back from the |
5362s | beginning of the chapter as well so if |
5364s | you missed that on something bunch of |
5366s | bunch of older stuff should be coming |
5367s | back for the rest of the season as well |
5369s | we did miss something pretty big |
5370s | actually oh yeah yeah what what what |
5371s | what I miss sorry well I guess it's |
5373s | coming up it's your next B because right |
5377s | now you've got battle pass on yes yeah |
5380s | yeah yeah with the with the changes to |
5382s | progression and all that or like the |
5383s | yeah little jbal seg |
5386s | Throne yeah um should we just jump into |
5388s | that next topic let's just do it yeah |
5390s | yeah yeah okay cool uh |
5393s | so the challenges are changing um we |
5397s | think that as it stands now it's pretty |
5400s | hard to interact with uh not a lot of |
5404s | people even know it's there uh probably |
5407s | so we've made some changes to the way |
5409s | battle pass progression and challenges |
5411s | work challenges are just weekly sets of |
5414s | challenges so you'll get three and |
5416s | that's it whenever you complete one |
5418s | it'll give you 2500 um battle pass XP so |
5422s | you'll get two and a half unlocks and |
5424s | you don't have to come to this screen to |
5426s | claim it so if you were to just happen |
5428s | to defeat a demonic animal which is like |
5431s | one of the uh like Alpha kind of like |
5433s | rare spawns that happen when you farm a |
5435s | population down um like they're they're |
5438s | probably not called demonic it would be |
5439s | like the like the alpha hyena uh you |
5442s | know withta like albino hyena with |
5444s | demonic eyes and stuff uh if you kill |
5447s | one of those it'll just complete the |
5448s | challenge and you'll just get unlocks |
5450s | right there um we'll also make it so |
5456s | whenever you play the game you get XP so |
5458s | any the the stuff that you do standard |
5460s | that earns you XP in the game like |
5462s | killing and harvesting and crafting just |
5464s | doing that will get you battle pass XP |
5466s | now it's not a onetoone map but it's |
5468s | really quick and if you just sit down |
5470s | and play like an hour or two you're |
5471s | going to get a handful of unlocks in |
5473s | that |
5474s | time |
5476s | um completing the challenges uh they're |
5479s | they're a little bit more they're |
5481s | probably a little more timec consuming |
5482s | now than they were before we because |
5484s | there's only three we want them to be a |
5485s | little bit more difficult to complete |
5487s | but paired with being you know really |
5489s | naturally completed and the fact that |
5491s | you don't have to go claim them means |
5492s | you'll be doing these a lot more and we |
5494s | think that a lot more people will be |
5496s | able to finish the battle pass a lot |
5497s | more naturally now just because all you |
5499s | have to do is play the |
5500s | game |
5501s | [Music] |
5503s | um the other I feel there's one other |
5506s | thing with the battle pass XP and |
5508s | challenges that I wanted to say but let |
5511s | me give me one second actually cuz I got |
5513s | a nice really nice primer for from one |
5514s | of our producers about it as well so let |
5517s | me just check here real quick yeah it's |
5520s | really straightforward like you can sit |
5522s | down in play for a little bit and oh I |
5524s | remember what it is uh whenever you |
5526s | actually unlock a tier now it will |
5528s | appear on screen so you'll actually see |
5531s | a a little effect appear on screen it's |
5533s | only there for about 4 seconds and it |
5535s | has a shortcut it says tier complete |
5537s | it'll show you oh yeah it actually shows |
5539s | like a little like fifo popup or sorry |
5541s | fade in Fade Out uh popup like towards |
5543s | the you can't really see it here it'll |
5546s | show you exactly what's unlocked and |
5547s | it'll give you a little shortcut so if |
5549s | you just use interact for the couple |
5551s | seconds when that's on screen it'll take |
5553s | you straight to the battle pass and show |
5555s | you what what tier has been |
5557s | completed um and if you don't want to |
5559s | see that at all we added an option in |
5561s | the interface options to turn those |
5563s | toast menus off so if you go to gameplay |
5565s | and just go the whole way down to the |
5566s | bottom there's one for battle pass tier |
5569s | completion toast and if you don't want |
5570s | it to interfere so you play on an RP |
5572s | server you don't care about battle pass |
5574s | at all all just turn it |
5578s | off get out of here get out of |
5582s | here so yeah basically you can actually |
5585s | yeah get Battle pass progression from |
5587s | just actually playing the game and doing |
5588s | normal things you would normally do |
5589s | within the game anyway play the game get |
5591s | things yep and then challenges are |
5592s | actually the challenges like y yeah yeah |
5595s | they're like we we we we balance around |
5599s | rates that like you know we expect |
5601s | people to be at a certain completion |
5602s | point at a certain time during chapter |
5605s | and we're you know trying to take into |
5608s | consideration that you don't need to do |
5610s | challenges that uh you know the you |
5612s | should get a a good amount of unlocks by |
5615s | just playing the game normally and if |
5617s | you you really need to rush or get done |
5619s | in a shorter amount of time having those |
5620s | you know two and a half unlocks uh with |
5623s | seven and a half per week is a a big |
5633s | buff you got to feed the |
5636s | dog |
5638s | no wait can you eat it or does it have |
5639s | to be |
5642s | raw I saw someone on YouTube chat being |
5644s | like if you let the dog die you have to |
5646s | start the entire stream you have to redo |
5649s | the entire stream which I agree with we |
5651s | would do better the second time we would |
5652s | we would we would it's correct there we |
5654s | go see a good boy someone was asking if |
5658s | we could get a um harder difficulty |
5661s | than huh so someone's asking if there's |
5664s | like there could be a new difficulty |
5666s | level for con and Exiles because |
5668s | barbaric is too easy or not they didn't |
5671s | say that bit but they're glutton for |
5672s | punishment I see that's where server |
5674s | settings come crom's own yeah crom's |
5677s | Champion oh hardcore mode make all the |
5680s | characters do a th plus 1,000% damage |
5683s | settings just give them all |
5685s | guns did we not have a Perma death |
5687s | before server no no we haven't had a |
5690s | perade death server no yeah that's not |
5692s | what I'm thinking of the only server |
5693s | type we used to have that we don't |
5694s | anymore is the blitz servers which |
5698s | monthly yeah yeah and then like way back |
5700s | in the day in AOC we had uh The Blood |
5703s | and Glory servers but that's a totally |
5704s | maybe that's what I'm thinking yeah |
5706s | that's probably what you're thinking |
5707s | actually yeah that was like the more |
5708s | more hardcore PVP stuff but yeah like |
5710s | actual I mean but like the you know the |
5712s | rules of an MMO and the rules of a like |
5714s | a smaller Survival game are uh pretty |
5717s | different cuz like a lot of the item |
5719s | drop rules here are very similar to like |
5720s | what you might have seen from Like Blood |
5721s | and Glory where you actually like lose |
5723s | an item |
5724s | but from an MMO in 2008 that was like |
5726s | much less common than a game like this |
5729s | Exiles being such a great platform for |
5731s | for mods as well like someone could make |
5733s | a perade death mod so easily and it |
5736s | would it would be there for the |
5738s | extremely small number of people that |
5740s | want to play that way yeah because it it |
5743s | is a very uh compelling idea but most |
5748s | people don't want to lose their stuff |
5750s | yep loss ofion for a certain personality |
5753s | type |
5756s | one that yeah is a glutton for |
5758s | punishment I am sometimes not to L I |
5761s | love risk I like Stakes I mean I like it |
5764s | when Stakes are high but I don't like |
5765s | losing all my stuff necessarily but I do |
5768s | like a challenge too that's why I like |
5771s | hard games I like the ssy games and all |
5774s | that stuff okay so let's see uh is there |
5779s | any other cool outfits that we should |
5780s | show off really quick can you dye that |
5781s | top you're wearing is someone is asking |
5784s | should be able to see why not oh maybe |
5786s | not uh you part of the in part of the |
5790s | inventory management stuff is that we |
5792s | we've changed how dying works as well so |
5794s | you have to go to the bench right now to |
5796s | die I see I don't think you can drop the |
5798s | die on top um we we went back and forth |
