| 108s | annoying because then we can change them |
| 110s | until next time because we switched from |
| 112s | OBS to stream Labs OBS so we're trying |
| 117s | it out basically and you know if things |
| 119s | are weird and in our faces and all that |
| 121s | kind of stuff then it has more bells and |
| 124s | whistles and we have to use all that yes |
| 125s | exactly we need to use all the bells and |
| 127s | whistles we don't we don't have the |
| 130s | whole like we don't have subscribers or |

| 157s | my blob thank you so much for following |
| 158s | us on Twitch unfortunately it's only |
| 161s | going to be Twitchell Ertz it's not |
| 162s | going to be make sure alerts because |
| 165s | reasons |
| 166s | three maps can only be connected to one |
| 167s | account at the same time I think I'm |
| 169s | gonna figure that stuff out |
| 170s | we just recently switched over James |
| 172s | Fontaine cane thank you for so much for |
| 174s | following us |
| 175s | the satrom we're gonna run for maybe |
| 179s | about an hour it's gonna be like a Q&A |
| 180s | stream so I'm not gonna show much from |
| 181s | the game or we're gonna talk about the |
| 183s | game Kota exalts that being so it's it's |
| 187s | gonna be it's gonna be good the alert |
| 191s | box is a bit big so I can just scale |
| 194s | that down just a tad there we go |
| 197s | so it doesn't go up in Oscars face so |
| 201s | yeah we're testing stuff out and it's a |
| 204s | Q&A stream and what's been happening |
| 206s | well we've been still working on the pet |
| 210s | system working on some bugs and exploits |
| 213s | we fixed they I'd call it fairly huge |
| 217s | exploit recently on PC people were using |
| 224s | to get around damage and rage rumors now |
| 229s | kind of stuff hmm the one that no one |
| 231s | liked so we got rid of that I think |
| 235s | that's that's good to get rid of that |
| 237s | and we're working on some other ones |
| 240s | that you guys have so helpfully told us |
| 244s | about through export hundreds but I |
| 246s | don't think I want to spend that much |
| 248s | time talking about that we'll talk about |
| 251s | the individual fix as we put them out oh |
| 255s | we are ready to shot in or whatever yeah |
| 257s | and we we always a little bit careful |
| 260s | with divulging exploited information |
| 263s | because obviously it has the potential |
| 264s | to ruin the game experience for yeah a |
| 266s | lot of people don't know about the |
| 268s | exploit right but and this is this is |
| 270s | why it's important that you guys let us |
| 273s | know about these things |
| 274s | if the starts running around there rumor |
| 277s | mill kind of thing and it becomes the |
| 279s | factor of behavior in the game to |
| 281s | exploit a certain a certain broken |
| 283s | mechanic and well exploit hunters can |
| 286s | really help us catch these things early |
| 288s | and stop them before to become a bigger |
| 291s | problem yes then it would take much |
| 293s | longer to fix for us and it would be |
| 294s | much more expensive to address |
| 296s | yep explain hunters good thing do you |
| 298s | know any exploits please let us know |
| 301s | it's very good alright so this is given |
| 304s | a stream so on our forums we had a big |
| 307s | thread that opened up yesterday closed |
| 308s | this morning we had about 70 posts I |
| 312s | think in that thread and some of you |
| 314s | guys had one question some of you guys |
| 316s | had a lot of questions so in total it |
| 318s | was it was a lot so we're not gonna be |
| 322s | able to answer every single question you |
| 324s | guys asked us luckily a lot of you asked |
| 326s | the same questions so I'm dropping pens |
| 329s | now so I should stop doing that luckily |
| 331s | a lot of you asked the same questions so |
| 333s | hopefully I know it's not shurikens or |
| 339s | so we're gonna be able to answer some of |
| 342s | it at least and so I've written them all |
| 346s | down so I think maybe we should list |
| 348s | that is big list it is three pages |
| 350s | I don't think pages and it's a very |
| 353s | small font it's size 11 right cracking |
| 357s | them all right you might not get to |
| 359s | everything but we're gonna try at least |
| 362s | so first things first which I think |
| 366s | people on the stream is wondering about |
| 369s | is mounts and sorcery Wow |
| 373s | straight to the point straight to the |
| 375s | point so big things first all right |
| 378s | right now we are trying to finish the |
| 381s | work that we're doing on the pet patch |
| 384s | what we have been calling the pet patch |
| 386s | this whole time which is actually very |
| 387s | large and includes a lot more many |
| 390s | things than the pet stuff I mean I guess |
| 394s | a lot of you were here when some weeks |
| 397s | ago when we tried to put this in the |
| 399s | test live server for the first time and |
| 401s | that didn't really go so well and at |
| 404s | that moment where the moment was when we |
| 408s | realize okay we need to you know take a |
| 411s | deeper look at what we're doing we need |
| 413s | to increase the general level of quality |
| 416s | of the stuff that we're doing and this |
| 419s | means that we had to spend more time |
| 420s | working on things yeah and we need to |
| 423s | stay flexible with our |
| 425s | deliverables right and I know that this |
| 427s | is this is maybe not a popular saying |
| 430s | for some people but you need to look at |
| 432s | it this way if if we speed things up in |
| 435s | order to get more stuff up there yeah |
| 437s | let's start that we put our there is |
| 438s | going to be of lesser quality that's |
| 440s | just the way it goes |
| 440s | right so the mounts on the sorcery |
| 445s | system have been in the pipe for quite a |
| 449s | long time now they were in the pipe |
| 450s | before launch there were some technical |
| 452s | problems with with mounting particular |
| 455s | that helped with the decision of you |
| 458s | know delaying this it's it's exactly the |
| 461s | same now these things are in the pipe |
| 463s | and we don't know exactly when we will |
| 466s | be able to start touching on them we |
| 469s | know that they are I mean they are two |
| 472s | of our kind of big big features that we |
| 475s | want to address at some point but we |
| 477s | don't know yet and we want to we will |
| 480s | not start working on these features |
| 482s | until we are done with Libby teaches |
| 485s | we're working on right now yeah right |
| 486s | this is what their compromise comes in |
| 488s | you want if you want to put out higher |
| 491s | quality more stable more refined highly |
| 494s | highly polished big features then you |
| 496s | need to do less of them yeah so I know |
| 500s | you guys want specific news about when |
| 502s | we're gonna do the mounts when we're |
| 505s | gonna do a source for you are we when |
| 507s | we're gonna do pets when we're gonna do |
| 509s | anything exactly are we doing those |
| 510s | things or not are we doing CG updates |
| 513s | and what are we doing right |
| 515s | the answer is we would like to do all of |
| 518s | those things but the realities of |
| 520s | development are that well we have to do |
| 522s | them one by one when is this right time |
| 524s | for them yeah so I guess I cannot give |
| 527s | you the answer you want to hear which is |
| 528s | yes we're starting working on this |
| 529s | tomorrow no that's not happening we are |
| 531s | finishing pets first and then we're |
| 533s | gonna look at what it's gonna be a we're |
| 535s | gonna be update yeah |
| 538s | we have an order in which we would like |
| 539s | to address them and you'll touch on |
| 541s | these in an interview hitting a couple |
| 542s | weeks ago yes I mean there is an order |
| 544s | that we would like to follow but things |
| 547s | sometimes gets run out of order and |
| 549s | we don't really want to commit to any |
| 551s | particular date or anything so that's it |
| 554s | for our Mountain and sorcery I don't |
| 558s | want to get too deep into how those |
| 560s | systems would work we have given some |
| 563s | thought about we have even a lot of |
| 564s | thought about how specifically the |
| 567s | sorcery system would work but I don't |
| 571s | really want to get too deep into that |
| 572s | because I don't I don't want to I want |
| 574s | to tell you things that then might look |
| 577s | differently right there yeah so I don't |
| 579s | want to commit to anything I don't wanna |
| 581s | bring your hopes high about how things |
| 583s | are gonna work when we haven't even |
| 585s | started seriously yeah working on them |
| 588s | so that's it |
| 590s | first er in which Chad had a suggestion |
| 592s | that after we've done with pets we |
| 593s | should just toss a coin and then if it's |
| 595s | heads or tails in sorcery the problem |
| 597s | with that is that you end up having to |
| 599s | like make a giant six-month-long feature |
| 602s | if the coin shows tails yeah and then |
| 606s | you're stuck and you know what I don't |
| 608s | know about you but I like tossing coins |
| 609s | it's a nice little dopamine - yes so |
| 612s | yeah one every six months sounds of it |
| 615s | is efficient yes they have to be |
| 617s | something bigger than a coin like a car |
| 620s | then we need someone able to save a car |
| 623s | all right like the Hulk |
| 626s | alright next up a lot of people ask this |
| 629s | question if there were any plans for |
| 631s | dual wielding of other weapons rather |
| 633s | other than just you know a a sword a |
| 637s | mace or a axe and the throwing axe and |
| 639s | then following up to that there were |
| 640s | also a lot of people asking if we're |
| 642s | planning on adding any new weapon types |
| 645s | alright dual wielding okay let me go |
| 648s | first of our new weapon types um |
| 649s | possibly yes we are at some point right |
| 655s | after release I wasn't really that keen |
| 656s | on any new work on types to the game |
| 658s | because I wanted to get up feeling of |
| 661s | the what do you guys like calling the |
| 664s | meta game right the dynamics of PvP |
| 667s | and the dynamics of different weapon |
| 669s | type usage before we made any more |
| 673s | weapon times they have the a new weapon |
| 675s | ty has the ability to shake things |
| 677s | around quite strongly right so we need |
| 680s | to be careful with that because shaking |
| 682s | things around |
| 683s | is not always necessarily a good thing |
| 685s | right so what we did instead is we |
| 689s | looked at welcome ties slowly one by one |
| 691s | and did tiny little adjustments here and |
| 693s | there |
| 693s | and there's still some of those that are |
| 696s | in the pipe that we are testing |
| 698s | internally for example we're testing I |
| 700s | think I mentioned is another strain were |
| 702s | worried about we're testing a little |
| 705s | thing too with Spears to try to taper |
| 709s | the dodge cancelling of invisible hits |
| 713s | behavior that we see like people rightly |
| 715s | with the spear and then before you even |
| 717s | have a chance to get the network message |
| 719s | about yeah the the heat landing on you |
| 722s | they have already dodged and then they |
| 724s | macro days and it's just it's just not |
| 727s | really fun at all to get him by an |
| 728s | invisible hitbox right so we're looking |
| 731s | at little things like that in that |
| 733s | spirit we implemented throwing axes and |
| 736s | shields yeah that's the reason we come |
| 738s | in to throw an isoceles the way we did |
| 740s | it we wanted to shake things out just a |
| 743s | bit and addresses specifically issues |
| 745s | with people being scared to commit to |
| 749s | full combos because they get blocked and |
| 751s | then they get punished |
| 752s | so the shield actually gives you she'll |
| 754s | smash to stop that and people running |
| 756s | away too easily so that's why it's |
| 759s | probably like scribbles on everything |
| 760s | right moving forwards we might do more |
| 764s | little adjustments like that we might |
| 766s | fix animation here or there and we might |
| 771s | also come up with entirely new weapons I |
| 772s | know people is partial of two hundred |
| 774s | axes because it's a very kind of a |
| 776s | boring thing oh yeah yeah there are all |
| 778s | the other weapon types that we also that |
| 781s | we have looked at that we think they're |
| 783s | exciting and people will also like but |
| 787s | I'm not ready to make any any more |
| 789s | comments about that I guess the High |
| 791s | Line here is yes we are open to add more |
| 795s | weapon types to the game even to the |
| 797s | point of you know shaking the meta a |
| 800s | little bit yeah I think we're in a good |
| 801s | spot now where we can you know let's |
| 803s | take a look at speed of dominance let's |
| 806s | take a look at one-handed maces and why |
| 808s | nobody uses them like axes are now okay |
| 810s | but maybe maybe that opener could could |
| 813s | get a little work that kind of stuff |
| 815s | right |
| 816s | about dual-wielding which was the other |
| 819s | part of the question we don't really |
| 822s | have any plans right now to add the |
| 825s | ability to put kind of random weapons in |
| 829s | your offhand there this is mostly due to |
| 833s | how the actionbar |
| 834s | interface works right so this is |
| 837s | something we discussed in development |
| 839s | and this is also how we ended up with |
| 841s | daggers and where they are we can make |
| 844s | it so you can just equip dual swords and |
| 847s | dual swords are one item just like |
| 849s | daggers are one item but it's two tigers |
| 851s | we actually now have the tech to do that |
| 853s | and put whatever mesh we want to do it |
| 855s | on your offhand and do it detection and |
| 857s | stuff but but we don't actually have the |
| 864s | tech to allow you to put whatever you |
| 867s | want in your main hand and then whatever |
| 868s | you want in your offhand it's actually |
| 871s | pretty tricky when you think about how |
| 872s | you will make that work with actually |
| 874s | morph our time just grab a gamepad for |
| 877s | example and try to figure out how you |
| 879s | equip only your offhand but not the main |
| 881s | how you have to add this kind of boolean |
| 883s | toggle you had to have toggles and keep |
| 885s | I didn't try to guess what the play is |
| 886s | trying to do is it gets complicated and |
| 889s | and we don't have any plans to change |
| 891s | their paradigm for the action bar and we |
| 893s | don't have plans to allow you to put |
| 894s | things directly in your offhand in a |
| 896s | paper bowl screen or whatever so so no I |
| 900s | don't think I don't think we will work I |
| 902s | don't think we will do offhand swords or |
| 905s | manga shares or cutlasses or restored |
| 908s | and CC me transistor at least we might |
| 911s | do CC meters like you quip a CC meter |
| 914s | like Dark Souls does this oh yeah like |
| 916s | it's it is one item and then you pull |
| 917s | out that we might do and I basically is |
| 920s | like it's a new weapon type it's like |
| 921s | you guys want to handle axis what you |
| 923s | want you want dual submitters right or |
| 925s | do we want to put monetizes we want to |
| 927s | put those limiters so that's it |
| 930s | basically it's a combination of |
| 932s | technical issues and this is the way |
| 934s | they're kind of equipment management |
| 936s | works in a game and all your hands your |
| 939s | hands working again right it's a system |
| 941s | that is difficult to do things strictly |
| 943s | to the offhand basically |
| 945s | all right huh speaking of dual-wielding |
| 950s | yeah more speaking of the wheel yeah cro |
| 953s | 9 and a lot of other people asked yeah |
| 955s | because you sort of when is this already |
| 957s | like why can't you wield a torch and |
| 960s | thrall bindings at the same time because |
| 961s | like the thrall binding and the torch |
| 963s | all go in the left hand while the |
| 965s | truncheon goes in the right hand and |
| 966s | it's sort of it's sort of stuck there |
| 967s | like you can't have a torch in your |
| 968s | right hand for example because we're not |
| 970s | doing the whole paper doll right hand |
| 972s | left hand okay you put the torch goes in |
| 974s | the other hand because we didn't want to |
| 976s | limit people to choose between light or |
| 978s | combat that's why the torch is in the |
| 980s | oven right as I just described we don't |
| 984s | actually have the ability to let you put |
| 985s | the torch in whatever hand you want |
| 986s | right the torch is to go in one hand you |
| 988s | cannot be you choose if you want to in |
| 990s | the main or the offhand because I mean |
| 992s | if we had that we could do to a wielding |
| 994s | right we don't have that so when we |
| 997s | thought about this is okay do we prefer |
| 999s | people walking around with a torch and a |
| 1001s | shield or with a torch and bindings or |
| 1003s | do we prefer people being able to |
| 1006s | actually fight things and have the torch |
| 1008s | and we just chose that the torch is more |
| 1011s | useful or is more limiting when you |
| 1014s | don't cannot do combat with it then when |
| 1016s | you can yeah so that's it |
| 1017s | so the binding self is a similar thing |
| 1021s | bindings are it's basically the same |
| 1023s | concept |
| 1024s | xa is more like when you're going back |
| 1025s | to your base while dragging around this |
| 1027s | poor soul that you're gonna turn into |
| 1029s | your thrall do we want people to be able |
| 1032s | to fight or not and we do want people to |
| 1035s | be able to fight because you might get a |
| 1036s | tie by a random ostrich or hyena |
| 1038s | whatever and yeah it would suck if you |
| 1040s | had to drop this roll and then attack |
| 1043s | right - so yeah that's what we decided |
| 1046s | to do that so it's a practical they're |
| 1048s | basically practical considerations also |
| 1051s | you can attach with the throw attacks or |
| 1053s | inner attach you can attack with the |
| 1054s | throw with your block button sorry with |
| 1057s | the torch this is my head you can attack |
| 1059s | with the torch English because you |
| 1060s | attack with the torch with your block |
| 1063s | button and that uses the same mechanics |
| 1066s | that we have for shields and we thought |
| 1068s | that also made sense |
| 1069s | well do you choose between what at some |
| 1072s | point someday might become fire damage |
| 1074s | or setting things on fire whatever or be |
| 1078s | able to block and that's also a tactical |
| 1080s | choice that you have to make yeah right |
| 1082s | and of course when you're in a cave you |
| 1083s | have to give up the ability to block and |
| 1085s | it's also interesting I mean you could |
| 1087s | have gone the other way you give up the |
| 1089s | ability to attack but I mean we thought |
| 1092s | this was more interesting sure yeah |
| 1094s | or if you get the what is it jet is |
| 1098s | great Sabre or something then you have a |
| 1100s | well then that's a two-handed sword so |
| 1103s | you lose the ability to use torches but |
| 1105s | it goes in the dark so yeah we also |
| 1108s | talked at some point about having |
| 1109s | lanterns that you could hang from your |
| 1110s | belt for excess like in blood-borne yeah |
| 1114s | like a Blood Moon do you always have |
| 1116s | there a little lantern net or many many |
| 1119s | other games do we like the clock we |
| 1120s | stone glow we clean stone or whatever um |
| 1122s | we and I'm not doing that and because we |
| 1126s | thought that you know they the kind of |
| 1127s | limiting choices that you have to make |
| 1130s | when you want to use a torch are |
| 1131s | actually interesting right I mean it may |
| 1134s | be annoying at some points but it's also |
| 1136s | interesting in many other occasions so |
| 1138s | we just okay sometimes sometimes |
| 1140s | gameplay limitations actually has an |
| 1143s | experience and the previous situations |
| 1145s | where you have to choose and having to |
| 1146s | choose and then choosing correctly and |
| 1148s | being rewarded for it feels good so |
| 1151s | that's that's why we never you know just |
| 1154s | went ahead and implemented non-trans yep |
| 1157s | all right another one from a lot of |
| 1161s | people is asking about the character |
| 1164s | creator and if we're gonna be adding |
| 1165s | more hairstyles more facial hair |
| 1166s | different facial options facial options |
| 1169s | and all that kind of stuff |
| 1170s | if the game is expanding in any way I |
| 1173s | don't actually know possibly we could |
| 1177s | expand what we have there it does a big |
| 1179s | demand for that we could just expand it |
| 1182s | there's no technically we could but |
| 1184s | Allen don't think we have any plans to |
| 1187s | do it right now um do you guys think |
| 1189s | there's nobody no I guess you do think |
| 1192s | there's not enough options that you're |
| 1193s | asking for if we're gonna have more |
| 1198s | exactly people wanted they were I think |
| 1201s | it was like five or six people in that |
| 1203s | more hair |
| 1204s | I want more hair to no be nice yeah |
| 1206s | we'll just we'll have Jenny just take |
| 1208s | care of that she's like super yeah we |
| 1210s | called a defense |
| 1212s | I color doing hair more hair etc etc |
| 1215s | also actually this is we're gonna appear |
| 1218s | clear Bonnie says appears is nice but |
| 1222s | those in game can change them yes see |
| 1225s | that's the kind of option I will lean |
| 1227s | towards okay I rather I'd rather give |
| 1230s | people the ability to alter their |
| 1232s | appearance and then just put more |
| 1234s | appearances in just just for the sake of |
| 1237s | having more appearances right both |
| 1240s | solutions taper to different kind of |
| 1242s | people that I guess I'm more of like a |
| 1244s | systems guy in that regard and I lean |
| 1246s | towards a you know what you want to you |
| 1248s | know make a proper serious character now |
| 1250s | you don't want to have purple hair and |
| 1251s | giant boobs anymore okay you can fix it |
| 1254s | yeah yeah by the way that this does not |
| 1258s | confirm any sort of no I just say she'll |
| 1261s | change potion by the way I'm just saying |
| 1263s | just that it's a great suggestion |
| 1265s | yeah is it kind of suggestion I would |
| 1266s | actually lean towards yes we're not |
| 1269s | confirming or denying anything all right |
| 1274s | Rock twelve asked how the bows work |
| 1278s | after you have revamp them and I saw a |
| 1280s | couple of people asking that in chat as |
| 1281s | well Maya yes the O's will they have a |
| 1284s | damage increase to make them more useful |
| 1285s | what other changes will be made to the |
| 1286s | boat we have been working you know we |
| 1293s | have been working in both yes I guess is |
| 1296s | not surprised for people that follow the |
| 1297s | stream regularly but we have been |
| 1300s | working in both quite a lot so yes we're |
| 1304s | changing things it's not I mean don't |
| 1309s | expect super dramatic like oh my god |
| 1311s | bows now shoot stars or whatever yeah |
| 1313s | but we have changed the mechanics of the |
| 1316s | right click on bows we are also looking |
| 1318s | at damage to do we were doing some play |
| 1323s | testing with bow mechanics in you know |
| 1325s | and with the bow damage output in |
| 1327s | general the other day we were running |
| 1330s | the Java stack Daniel in a group of four |
| 1332s | people for example and we try with |
| 1335s | latest we try different kind of group |
| 1337s | setups right so in that specific |
| 1340s | evening I was the Archer yeah I was |
| 1342s | actually playing as the Archer it was |
| 1344s | a complete Archer dedicated role I |
| 1347s | didn't I didn't even carry on a weapon I |
| 1349s | just had a bow and two thousand arrows |
| 1351s | that were your Legolas and and food well |
| 1354s | Legolas doesn't need arrows just just |
| 1357s | just for mortals right he just pulls |
| 1359s | them out of hammers yeah who's the |
| 1360s | Damario space-like mollari has given him |
| 1363s | so how was the archer I was specifically |
| 1368s | trying to test okay what's going on with |
| 1370s | this is it like I've read about feedback |
| 1373s | about bows I'm not strong they're not |
| 1375s | powerful enough |
| 1377s | I think those were doing great in that |
| 1380s | run of course it requires I mean the |
| 1382s | group was basically one tank 1 million |
| 1385s | dps which was a I think it was a tranny |
| 1387s | spear right or 202 and so depending like |
| 1389s | huse which one can hybrid melee type of |
| 1395s | tank DPS guy which was like 100 weapons |
| 1398s | and sometimes a shield sometimes I throw |
| 1400s | an axe right and me as the archer and I |
| 1405s | was doing a ton of damage |
| 1407s | I was I was destroying things from a |
| 1410s | distance we did that a max level grunt |
| 1413s | we all had star metal or Assyrian or |
| 1416s | whatever each person chose whatever they |
| 1418s | wanted and Max Beals so we could test |
| 1420s | you could break it right which is also |
| 1424s | something we do and I was one shotting I |
| 1427s | was one shotting every human NPC in the |
| 1432s | dungeon with headshots with a bow |
| 1434s | dedicated build one shot in them all of |
| 1437s | them yes you hit the head they're dead |
| 1439s | in in the internal plateaus in the |
| 1441s | internal like that so and this is this |
| 1445s | is before the changes that we had done |
| 1447s | to both yeah so I am not actually |
| 1450s | convinced that we have to do major |
| 1454s | damage changes to bows but we're buffing |
| 1457s | them a little bit so we are buffing the |
| 1463s | right-click mechanism because it's a bit |
| 1464s | of a more involved mechanism now right |
| 1466s | it also so easier to learn head shots |
| 1469s | with it now yeah expect to see a little |
| 1471s | increase there but we're not I'm not |
| 1473s | changing the baseline damage of bows |
| 1475s | right now I think both are |
| 1477s | very undervalued and I think they have a |
| 1482s | very very strong role in the game and |
| 1484s | they can be very very powerful by people |
| 1486s | that know what they're doing with them |
| 1488s | so yeah this is one this is an example |
| 1491s | of one of those things where you go |
| 1493s | ahead and you change something |
| 1494s | dramatically and you just break right so |
| 1498s | yeah so yeah and as we've said a couple |
| 1503s | of times already like the the power shop |
| 1509s | is coming back like you'll be able to |
| 1510s | hold your bow you can hold it and then |
| 1512s | you release |
| 1512s | yes it's none of that you know we do |
| 1515s | we're removing what we have now and |
| 1517s | we're adding in what we had before |
| 1519s | yes well I'll turn them the actual |
| 1521s | behavior of the bow the mechanics of the |
| 1524s | ball and we have a we have a highlight |
| 1528s | stream where we talk about these in the |
| 1530s | yes we don't we don't need to give more |
| 1532s | details yeah there's gonna be about |
| 1533s | three in some time not just bows also |
| 1536s | throwing Isis and javelins the other way |
| 1538s | absolutely yeah |
| 1539s | all right moving on to dungeons which |
| 1544s | some people in the east reddit also |
| 1545s | asked about because we're working on a |
| 1548s | couple of new ones |
| 1549s | a couple of new ones a couple of new |
| 1551s | ones couple a few I can't say how many |
| 1554s | but some I can I was given permission to |
| 1557s | say anywhere yessum would you like to |
| 1560s | say how many yes he's like it's the |
| 1562s | midnight bro would you wanna you want to |
| 1564s | finish your sentence first |
| 1565s | yeah good like the midnight Grove is on |
| 1566s | is on test live now but we're doing |
| 1568s | other ones and someone was asking if |
| 1570s | they're going to be the length of what |
| 1574s | we currently have or is gonna be shorter |
| 1576s | like the witch queen touch for example |
| 1578s | yeah and if there are any plans doing |
| 1579s | have and has the existing ones because I |
| 1581s | saw a couple of players for example |
| 1583s | saying that you can just Pelt the |
| 1586s | abyssal remains for example from a |
| 1588s | distance of a snake house and it just |
| 1590s | dies one player is also pointed out that |
| 1593s | killing done and bosses feel feels a bit |
| 1595s | tedious feels challenging yeah I agree |
| 1597s | and yeah you agree like well you do get |
| 1601s | unique crafting materials like you can |
| 1603s | just sort of run past them and get the |
| 1604s | recipe for whatever they |
| 1607s | whatever they gave from like a tablet or |
| 1609s | something so are we like yeah what is so |
| 1612s | we're we're improving some things |
| 1614s | they're not all of the things that you |
| 1616s | mentioned but some were improving |
| 1619s | Daniel's |
| 1622s | there they are all pretty long I think |
| 1625s | we are working on five dungeons right |
| 1629s | now at the same time if you include the |
| 1632s | devil sack dungeon |
| 1634s | so that's Java sag which is gonna come |
| 1637s | out with the pet update that it's in |
| 1639s | test life right now and for more we are |
| 1642s | actually working on for dungeons right |
| 1644s | now right they're all they all have |
| 1646s | different themes they're all in |
| 1648s | different locations they have bosses and |
| 1651s | they have trash mobs and they have very |
| 1653s | interesting setups that are very |
| 1656s | different so that's happening right now |
| 1658s | so it's not it's not about this for |
| 1660s | right lazio suck the homicide engine we |
| 1663s | actually have done color changes which |
| 1667s | are things should begin you should be |
| 1668s | hitting test life soon very soon yeah |
| 1671s | to not only some of the boss some of the |
| 1674s | monsters hit points and damage values |
| 1677s | and stuff like that like for example |
| 1678s | we're making gorillas be more like tanky |
| 1682s | but to less damage but again employees |
| 1685s | because otherwise is just a joke you can |
| 1688s | just hit them and they never get to do |
| 1689s | anything and it looks silly right on a |
| 1691s | gorilla yeah so we are we're not |
| 1694s | touching saber-tooth cats by the way |
| 1696s | which is nasty Reuters they destroyed me |
| 1700s | two weeks ago yes you need to be careful |
| 1702s | and you can really get hit by them but |
| 1703s | you can also choose between going the |
| 1705s | gorilla path or the saber-tooth back |
| 1706s | sure so saber-tooth cats and actually on |
| 1709s | purpose very weak like they don't have a |
| 1713s | lot of hit points right that's why I |
| 1714s | mean we weak but they do a little damage |
| 1716s | or less our they have more hit points |
| 1717s | but you do less damage right so you can |
| 1719s | choose your path so you can send your |
| 1720s | group you can choose one oh right this |
| 1722s | is why that's beautiful faster than you |
| 1724s | so for bosses we're also adjusting the |
| 1728s | boss is not only mechanically but also |
| 1730s | let you know some of them are going to |
| 1731s | get poised so what am I gonna get taunt |
| 1734s | so name some of them are gonna loose |
| 1736s | some of the turns the werewolf boss has |
| 1739s | done his cut |
| 1741s | new sequencing of his attacks because it |
| 1744s | was a very unfair it was a brutal unfair |
| 1747s | fight right so we changed the way he |
| 1750s | behaves to connect it create a better |
| 1752s | you know okay this is the opportunity to |
| 1754s | attack that was already there by we're |
| 1756s | emphasizing that the bull also turns to |
| 1759s | damage reduction because it was I mean |
| 1761s | it was an unfair |
| 1762s | well he wasn't fair sorry that it would |
| 1763s | just charge you and 2 shot you in the |
| 1766s | air yeah I get it with me yes |
| 1769s | so we're doing adjustments like that and |
| 1771s | we are gonna do those kind of adjustment |
| 1774s | to all the dungeons working forwards we |
| 1777s | will do these to every single dungeon |
| 1778s | right I mean it's not the bosses are not |
| 1782s | gonna I'm not really gonna be giant |
| 1787s | multi-phase encounters with like as |
| 1789s | pawns and and now hug now spread |
| 1792s | mechanics and yeah all the stuff that |
| 1794s | you expect not seen an MMO right that's |
| 1797s | that's not what they're gonna look like |
| 1799s | but but we didn't like the level of |
| 1801s | quality that and which we have them and |
| 1804s | we're trying to improve them as much as |
| 1805s | we can yeah it's go so again back to do |
| 1808s | we want to do a lot or do we want to do |
| 1810s | good |
| 1811s | sure yeah right so this is why the pet |
| 1815s | depend update is delayed and why we're |
| 1817s | taking our sweet time to put it out and |
| 1820s | single for the yellow so Daniel yeah |
| 1822s | the Sachin agrees with you do not turn |
| 1823s | bosses into wow great bosses while rate |
| 1826s | bosses are excellent is in my opinion is |
| 1828s | the absolute best boss in content design |
| 1831s | in the gaming world period for a |
| 1834s | multiplayer co-op kind of 20 people |
| 1836s | thing is absolutely excellent totally 9 |
| 1840s | you cannot beat it yeah but we're not |
| 1842s | wow this is not well that's not what |
| 1844s | we're aiming for right take the game |
| 1846s | even hardly any struggles to support |
| 1850s | more than than three guys fighting the |
| 1852s | same thing at the same time it's not |
| 1853s | that kind of game right it's not an MMO |
| 1855s | so so yeah bosses need to cater to what |
| 1858s | players can do and they need to work in |
| 1860s | mostly in single player even though |
| 1862s | Daniels are not actually sign for single |
| 1863s | player but they they need to be killable |
| 1866s | by people that don't have ten years of |
| 1869s | right training sure yeah yes |
| 1871s | yeah it's also ridiculously expensive to |
| 1874s | make a bow boss encounter like the ones |
| 1876s | defining well it's people often and they |
| 1879s | appreciate the amount of work involved |
| 1880s | in making something like that yeah yeah |
| 1882s | it should be mention that when we say |
| 1883s | that it like that we're working on |
| 1885s | several dungeons it means that they're |
| 1887s | in like different their offices of being |
| 1890s | made like some of them are still in |
| 1891s | concepting phase I would assume and some |
| 1893s | of them are being built by like level |
| 1895s | designers yeah it's like applied like |
| 1897s | everything else except there's a little |
| 1899s | bit of multiplexing on this one so we do |
| 1902s | have one dungeon is gonna enter play |
| 1907s | testing phase very very soon the next |
| 1910s | dungeon is about 80% of the way to |
| 1915s | entering plate this phase then the other |
| 1918s | one is about 60% and the last one is in |
| 1921s | concepting phase concept in phase right |
| 1922s | now but we will have gray box levels and |
| 1927s | proper designs for it and some working |
| 1930s | mechanics even on the last one which is |
| 1932s | basically stealing concept so yeah we're |
| 1934s | working on them all at the same time yep |
| 1939s | crow the shaman asks my next question |
| 1941s | which is interesting what are we doing |
| 1945s | about voice over IP because I know this |
| 1949s | is very important for role players and |
| 1951s | it's very important for people who don't |
| 1953s | necessarily use things like discord or |
| 1955s | Skype or anything like that to talk to |
| 1958s | each other they just use voice over IP |
| 1959s | and right now it's a bit it can be a bit |
| 1962s | choppy at times so I do agree about the |
| 1964s | importance of having a way to |
| 1966s | communicate beyond text especially if |
| 1970s | you're trying to create a role-playing |
| 1971s | environment right it's difficult to use |
| 1974s | stop and time and stuff but sadly other |
| 1977s | I don't actually have any news about |
| 1979s | voice over IP it's a very difficult |
| 1982s | piece of technology and we don't really |
| 1987s | have any current plans to improve it |
| 1989s | from what we have right now |
| 1991s | ok so sorry that's kinda as the doser in |
| 1994s | the patch is um we agree that it's not |
| 1998s | as good as it as we would have wanted it |
| 2000s | to be but we don't have any immediate |
| 2002s | plans immediate runs to |
| 2004s | except maybe later down the line bus |
| 2009s | okay yep Josh Sanders and others asks |
| 2014s | since Playstation recently announced |
| 2016s | that it will allow cross-platform play |
| 2017s | to slight third-party games are we |
| 2019s | considering letting ps4 players play |
| 2021s | with Xbox one and PC players right now |
| 2024s | we don't have any cross-platform at all |
| 2027s | PC players play with PC players export |
| 2029s | players playing with our players and ps4 |
| 2031s | players play with ps4 comm dos I would |
| 2033s | assume that it's gonna stay that way |
| 2035s | I would have seemed so - yeah because |
| 2037s | those kind of that kind of crossover is |
| 2039s | it's like it's a very difficult thing to |
| 2043s | accomplish and it has nothing to do with |
| 2045s | technology has some to do with |
| 2047s | technology because they use entirely |
| 2049s | different service entirely different |
| 2051s | login systems and character like player |
| 2055s | recognition systems that unique IDs and |
| 2057s | stuff yeah so there is work involved on |
| 2059s | bridging that gap but there is also a |
| 2061s | lot of you know commercial agreements |
| 2064s | and polishing agreements that need to |
| 2066s | happen before that is a reality and it |
| 2070s | also expensive and even though Xbox and |
| 2076s | all Sony and Microsoft can be very keen |
| 2079s | to do this kind of thing yeah in some |
| 2080s | special cases and it's still it's still |
| 2083s | not as straightforward thing to do so I |
| 2087s | don't really know if we are looking at |
| 2091s | doing cross-platform |
| 2092s | but I don't think so okay yeah here's a |
| 2097s | quick one maybe read forged steel and a |
| 2102s | bunch of others asked a space is |
| 2104s | sometimes limited and five pad pants are |
| 2106s | huge why not have single at pens oh why |
| 2111s | are pencil big yeah or wire pens babe |
| 2113s | well pens are big because sometimes you |
| 2115s | have to fit big animals in there like a |
| 2117s | rhino the reason we don't have single |
| 2119s | pens is because we expected you guys to |
| 2122s | to try to tame multiple pets at the same |
| 2125s | time right even even our entry point a |
| 2128s | scenario which is you're basically |
| 2131s | making Kappas and some hyenas |
| 2133s | even our entry point scenario had |
| 2136s | players |
| 2137s | working on multiple pets at the same |
| 2138s | time right we also wanted to create this |
| 2142s | these illusion of okay your stable is |
| 2146s | kind of like a big part of your base is |
| 2148s | like think only only this is as if |
| 2151s | you're building a town right I mean yes |
| 2154s | you can have a stable for your one horse |
| 2155s | attached to your house but typically you |
| 2158s | will find a stable with horses right |
| 2160s | yeah so we won with that kind of |
| 2161s | scenario and unfortunately maybe they're |
| 2164s | just too big and too cumbersome to place |
| 2166s | right there was no particular intent or |
| 2168s | making them difficult to place that |
| 2170s | doesn't make sense but there was intent |
| 2171s | on making them be a bigger part of the |
| 2174s | scenery right or your base just like the |
| 2176s | vault is a big part of just scenery and |
| 2178s | then don't need to be that big when just |
| 2180s | made it a B because it's supposed to be |
| 2182s | the cordilla base yeah right |
| 2184s | so not the core of your 1,000 places is |
| 2187s | written over together but that's the |
| 2190s | same thing with pens so I don't know |
| 2194s | maybe at some point in the future we'll |
| 2195s | make single pants but that's the |
| 2198s | reasoning we followed right right now as |
| 2201s | far as I know we don't have any plans to |
| 2202s | break them down into individual pieces |
| 2204s | okay |
| 2207s | little or I think that's how you |
| 2210s | pronounce it ml you are this the Lord |
| 2215s | lor lor or m/l lor it's Quenya which is |
| 2221s | more right this comes up a lot and it |
| 2226s | has to do with roles have you considered |
| 2228s | the possibility of adding a button to |
| 2230s | change throat temperament between |
| 2231s | aggressive and passive it becomes it's |
| 2233s | very annoying with close attack or don't |
| 2235s | attack independent people what you want |
| 2236s | to do alright that's a bunch of things |
| 2239s | coming in about that not specifically |
| 2242s | the ability to say if they're going to |
| 2244s | be aggressive or passive even though we |
| 2246s | might do that anyways but what is coming |
| 2249s | very very soon is that first of all |
| 2253s | trolls will assist you they will outgrow |
| 2255s | things that you aggro right so this all |
| 2259s | doesn't need to be hit anymore and you |
| 2261s | don't actually have to hit anything if |
| 2263s | you get hit then the throat will try to |
| 2266s | assist right right also we are adding |
| 2271s | the ability for Souls to Canda to enter |
| 2275s | what we are calling a scouting mode |
| 2277s | right which is you can meet a lateral to |
| 2279s | follow you and then the so we'll just |
| 2281s | you know like you're going to do |
| 2283s | together whatever and then you tell this |
| 2284s | fall all right dude stop following app |
| 2287s | right currently do it will actually say |
| 2291s | okay this is my new home mm-hmm and then |
| 2293s | you go back to your base and these guys |
| 2295s | is stranded in the middle of nowhere and |
| 2296s | he's just gonna stay there right and |
| 2299s | then that's it he's not gonna be |
| 2300s | consumed by so anything |
| 2302s | what we're doing now is that you can say |
| 2303s | hey dude wasn't you just you don't stop |
| 2304s | follow me and then he's gonna stay here |
| 2306s | but he's not gonna go back to your base |
| 2308s | right I'm sorry he's not gonna set this |
| 2311s | as a new home right did you then leave I |
| 2313s | forget about this guy he will actually |
| 2316s | go back to your base okay |
| 2318s | yes also this approach also which is |
| 2321s | that might sound like it's a little |
| 2322s | subtle thing but it basically allows you |
| 2324s | to set temporary Scouts because these |
| 2327s | trolls will actually do event log |
| 2330s | notifications I will talk about the |
| 2331s | event log right we had things coming |
| 2333s | from that also so this guy is basically |
| 2334s | scouting for you he's not moving around |
| 2336s | you know like peering to the horizon or |
| 2338s | whatever but he's basically standing |
| 2340s | there until ant if he gets tired right |
| 2344s | and then when he gets tired which is |
| 2345s | something ten minutes now he will say |
| 2347s | you know what yes you don't want me to |
| 2349s | follow you anymore yeah I'll just go |
| 2351s | back home right players can also say hey |
| 2354s | hey stop following me and this is your |
| 2358s | new home |
| 2358s | so you tell this role specifically make |
| 2361s | this your new home yeah that needs to |
| 2363s | follow the rules of placement for Falls |
| 2365s | which is not the case for scouting you |
| 2367s | can scout into someone else's nice right |
| 2370s | but you tell them to guard which is how |
| 2373s | we're calling that then that's the new |
| 2375s | home and then you can go do whatever and |
| 2377s | the guys just is as if you wanna turn |
| 2378s | and you place him there right like or |
| 2380s | her or or hit if it's a panther |
| 2383s | yeah well Panthers are also technically |
| 2384s | he saw like a Kappa huh what kept us all |
| 2390s | so many people never mind for you know |
| 2392s | what genders is fine shellbacks yes |
| 2393s | shellbacks so that's gonna come in |
| 2397s | that's already implemented it's what |
| 2399s | destiny is gonna come in very very soon |
| 2401s | actually yes palm you can make it all |
| 2402s | stay there or not move he just covered |
| 2405s | yes yes in fact you cannot actually make |
| 2407s | them stay there |
| 2408s | and move right so they're not gonna be |
| 2410s | patrolling or anything like that they're |
| 2411s | just gonna stay there they will behave |
| 2413s | exactly I see as if that was their home |
| 2415s | but it's not their home right it's like |
| 2417s | they have a temporary home |
| 2418s | the lasts for 10 minutes right sure yes |
| 2421s | a dad also fixes issues with stills |
| 2423s | getting stuck because when cells get |
| 2425s | aggro by something like I got tonight |
| 2428s | when I take your base and pull out your |
| 2430s | throws out of your wall and bring them |
| 2432s | over there to the river Creek or |
| 2433s | whatever and then disconnect yeah right |
| 2436s | now those guys will get stuck because |
| 2438s | they don't know how to get back home |
| 2439s | yeah and they're trying right with this |
| 2442s | system they will not they will all be in |
| 2444s | a temporary Scout in a state and the |
| 2447s | temporary Scout in a state if they |
| 2449s | cannot get back home from that state |
| 2451s | right they would eventually they will |
| 2453s | try different levels of quality but |
| 2455s | eventually they would end up teleporting |
| 2457s | back home okay |
| 2458s | quite so throws I'm not gonna get |
| 2460s | stranded anymore yeah yeah they will |
| 2462s | only get stranded if you tell them to |
| 2463s | get stranded otherwise you just tell |
| 2465s | them like hey stay here |
| 2466s | eventually later go back home right |
| 2468s | something else that were a DiNozzo's |
| 2470s | we're adding an event law we're |
| 2472s | improving the event log that we already |
| 2474s | have yes which will include a ton of |
| 2477s | different types of notifications and |
| 2478s | entries that try to inform you about |
| 2481s | what the hell is going on with your |
| 2482s | thoughts so if your throw got killed by |
| 2486s | someone you will see in the event log |
| 2488s | right your throw got died of hunger for |
| 2493s | example because you told you to follow |
| 2495s | and you tell him to cap or guard over |
| 2497s | there and then he's now outside of the |
| 2499s | feeder radio so you forgot you forget |
| 2501s | about him for two weeks oh yeah guys |
| 2502s | that now so you will get an entry right |
| 2504s | so the idea there is to create a |
| 2506s | situation where the event law can serve |
| 2509s | also as a source of Intel right about |
| 2512s | what's happening to your base yeah so |
| 2514s | spreading throws in its cutting |
| 2516s | positions over the map or whatever |
| 2518s | actually provides you with Intel |
| 2520s | yeah that's why we call the discounting |
| 2521s | sure right these guys is still report |
| 2523s | and then this new event log you'll be |
| 2525s | able to scroll back you can do filters |
| 2527s | yeah we're still working on the on the |
| 2529s | UX on the |
| 2531s | user experience the UI side of things |
| 2533s | but yes we want to add filters you can |
| 2535s | filter based on the type of event and |
| 2537s | yes of course you kind of scroll because |
| 2539s | otherwise I mean do you think is gonna |
| 2541s | be full if your base gets rated this |
| 2544s | event log is gonna be large you will get |
| 2546s | notifications for every single piece |
| 2549s | that you lose yes you will get |
| 2551s | notification for every single item you |
| 2553s | you lose if someone goes and steals |
| 2556s | stuff on your chest you will have an |
| 2558s | entry first thing that they steal and |
| 2561s | this is important for us we want to make |
| 2563s | sure that when something happens to your |
| 2566s | assets you know what it was you know |
| 2569s | what happened right so you have |
| 2571s | certainty this isn't very important for |
| 2573s | us and I think it's important for the |
| 2575s | players too so you cannot you know you |
| 2577s | can for example commit to create in a |
| 2581s | larger base without being constantly |
| 2583s | scared about is it gonna go away we'll |
| 2585s | go from a bug overnight and if stuff |
| 2588s | disappears you will know what happened |
| 2591s | you don't have to be paranoid or anxious |
| 2593s | about the admins of this server toying |
| 2596s | with us |
| 2597s | yeah right or if it's a bug or if it was |
| 2600s | the raid or if it was another player or |
| 2602s | exactly you will get all that |
| 2604s | information so it's important for us |
| 2606s | that there is certainty on the state of |
| 2609s | the game for players the players know |
| 2611s | what happened to the assets because |
| 2613s | that's the only way where we can build |
| 2616s | ownership right right they're not gonna |
| 2618s | invest on a ginormous Minas Tirith |
| 2621s | construction sure if you're not certain |
| 2624s | of what happens to it when suddenly a |
| 2625s | chunk is gone yeah and if a chunk is |
| 2627s | gone because of a bug then we'll need to |
| 2630s | work on fixing that yeah but we want |
| 2631s | players to be certain that it was not a |
| 2634s | bug it was some dude they raided you |
| 2638s | last night yeah right yes yes someone |
| 2641s | also mentioned that for this new event |
| 2643s | for being able to rename thralls would |
| 2645s | help like differentiate who is where and |
| 2648s | we're looking into that we're looking |
| 2649s | into renaming pets and thralls both of |
| 2653s | them that's all I can say we're looking |
| 2658s | into it that's a couple of little issues |
| 2661s | with that like for example how |
| 2664s | restrictive we want to be with what kind |
| 2666s | of things you can name your soul right |
| 2668s | and in different platforms handled that |
| 2670s | differently like for example in Xbox and |
| 2672s | Playstation they already have a system |
| 2674s | where you can even type things that they |
| 2676s | consider inappropriate right but then |
| 2678s | this I mean that's a line they draw and |
| 2680s | then the question is should we care |
| 2682s | about our own line or not I lean towards |
| 2685s | we shouldn't care I mean if you're |
| 2688s | playing in a private server with with |
| 2689s | people then you guys can't you know you |
| 2692s | can just talk to each other and set the |
| 2693s | rules for what's offensive and what |
| 2694s | isn't |
| 2695s | yeah and we're not here to police that |
| 2697s | you are playing on an official server |
| 2699s | then you know what kind of stuff you |
| 2701s | should expect yeah and if you're playing |
| 2703s | in a safer environment like Xbox or |
| 2707s | Playstation which is safer than ischemia |
| 2709s | sting has barely any any language |
| 2711s | filters or whatever right then well then |
| 2714s | you're already safe yeah can I join |
| 2716s | esteemed and well just does the world |
| 2719s | today you're out there in the internet |
| 2720s | right okay yeah cool and this event log |
| 2724s | will it have time stamps that people can |
| 2727s | see when something happened I assume so |
| 2729s | yeah I think so too actually do you know |
| 2732s | what yes to the guys working on these we |
| 2738s | talked to mark Marcin we haven't |
| 2739s | actually talked at what time stuff |
| 2741s | because I think everyone just assumed so |
| 2743s | yeah how you would you yes you need to |
| 2745s | know when it happened yes yes he's going |
| 2747s | to have time stammers all right |
| 2752s | bye Jay I'm gonna pronounce it by Jay |
| 2754s | because I'm not gonna pronounce it the |
| 2756s | other way like Brazilian Jujitsu bi J |
| 2760s | hey why ah so bye Jay yes - yes - Birds |
| 2764s | yeah |
| 2765s | do you really categorically exclude ever |
| 2768s | integrating new building pieces of |
| 2770s | building tiles in the game there are |
| 2772s | many suggestions for new building pieces |
| 2773s | like 2 x 2 x 2 gates steeper ramps half |
| 2776s | block foundations or will there be hope |
| 2779s | for us builders that phone call will |
| 2780s | expand the possibilities of the building |
| 2782s | system in the future and I know that |
| 2784s | came up a bunch in chat as well which is |
| 2786s | why I'm jumping to it yes no we have no |
| 2789s | particular reason to artificially limit |
| 2791s | the different building types that we |
| 2794s | have right now we created a tie set |
| 2796s | which we then |
| 2797s | expanded actually quite dramatically |
| 2799s | with a lot of corner building options |
| 2801s | for example and triangle building |
| 2803s | options yeah the fact that we actually |
| 2804s | added triangles and squares I think that |
| 2807s | that was something that we added because |
| 2808s | we wanted to increase the freedom for |
| 2811s | people to build whatever right also |
| 2813s | because it creates pretty interesting |
| 2814s | this is my personal saying sure I create |
| 2816s | really interesting geometry problems |
| 2819s | yeah it's like damn it how did I end up |
| 2821s | with a 60-degree okay so no we're not |
| 2826s | against adding new building piece types |
| 2829s | it becomes more expensive as we as we |
| 2832s | progress and we keep adding new skins |
| 2835s | for these pieces yeah especially |
| 2837s | especially if we then want to have full |
| 2841s | coverage like we have I don't know how |
| 2843s | many different schemes we have knowledge |
| 2845s | like seven or eight I think |
| 2847s | so we start with three and then we added |
| 2849s | two more for four for the frozen north |
| 2853s | then we add one more with tie and then |
| 2855s | we added one more with Aquilonians over |
| 2857s | yeah we're up to seven and then there |
| 2861s | might be more coming so so this becomes |
| 2865s | problematic because every time you add a |
| 2866s | new type of piece right not only you |
| 2869s | have to create the rules for it which |
| 2870s | depending on this piece there are eight |
| 2872s | complex but I mean if we insist on |
| 2874s | having full coverage and people we want |
| 2876s | their aquilonian triple corners Turkish |
| 2879s | invert the curve thing right - look |
| 2881s | aquilonian right then this becomes a |
| 2884s | problem for the art pipeline right right |
| 2886s | but we don't have to do that if people |
| 2890s | is willing to accept that there's no |
| 2892s | full coverage right sure so no from a |
| 2895s | game that is from the design standpoint |
| 2896s | there's no we're not against adding new |
| 2899s | building types there is something to say |
| 2902s | though about simplicity on the system |
| 2905s | I'm keeping it minimalistic yeah |
| 2907s | right and that is why we know at some |
| 2911s | point you have to draw a line and say |
| 2912s | okay this should be enough yeah yeah |
| 2914s | this building set should actually cover |
| 2917s | most of the cases and the rest of the |
| 2918s | cases they can improvise if you look at |
| 2921s | minecraft they have one building piece |
| 2923s | type yeah it's a block you can be a few |
| 2927s | blocks and they kind of behave like |
| 2928s | pixels in that case but people get |
| 2930s | really creative and they do some |
| 2931s | crazy things we just lost yeah right we |
| 2934s | of course obviously you wanted to offer |
| 2935s | much more than that but I mean I also |
| 2938s | really like seeing what people come up |
| 2939s | with like I've seen boats made with and |
| 2942s | yeah with our building pieces we just |
| 2944s | look absolutely amazing so yeah I was |
| 2947s | going to say that people like already |
| 2948s | are able to build some really amazing |
| 2952s | things that I haven't been able to |
| 2954s | imagine yet so I am much more concerned |
| 2956s | with people it being impossible for |
| 2960s | people to try certain angles of |
| 2962s | construction than people to have exactly |
| 2966s | the solution for every little bit every |
| 2968s | little case right if there is if there |
| 2970s | is a if we see that people's behavior is |
| 2973s | to try to start building I don't really |
| 2975s | know because we actually cover a lot of |
| 2976s | them already |
| 2976s | I don't know inverted spiral staircases |
| 2979s | that you're supposed to monkey bar down |
| 2981s | from or whatever yeah and we need to |
| 2983s | support a spiral staircase or some sort |
| 2985s | to to empower them to do that then yeah |
| 2989s | yeah then that was a yak on let's go |
| 2991s | let's add a spiral staircase until then |
| 2995s | I think again this is what goes back to |
| 2998s | limitations sometimes actually enhance |
| 2999s | gameplay right right we try to provide a |
| 3002s | tile set that that gives you all the |
| 3005s | tools that you need it does any tool |
| 3008s | that you guys are dialing missing then |
| 3011s | tell us and we yeah I'm betting now in |
| 3015s | like 30 seconds chat is just gonna be |
| 3016s | full of laughs we were these kinds of |
| 3019s | pillars and we want yes this thing and I |
| 3021s | saw someone mention like triangular |
| 3022s | awnings for example to put on like this |
| 3024s | anticipations |
| 3025s | I wish we had made a system and maybe we |
| 3029s | will do I don't know I wish we would |
| 3031s | have the ability to polymorph the pieces |
| 3034s | depending on context yeah like he'd you |
| 3037s | are did you're trying to connect with |
| 3038s | with a course hey here comes spiral |
| 3040s | staircase around pillars half-point the |
| 3042s | tower pieces yeah so it's coming two by |
| 3045s | two doors so I guess I think adding a |
| 3048s | new type of corner and you know or our |
| 3050s | cap or plasma TVs I think I think those |
| 3055s | kind of pieces suddenly becomes you |
| 3057s | don't add one piece you have to add like |
| 3059s | eight just to support the usage yeah of |
| 3061s | that one use case like that makes it |
| 3063s | less attractive right |
| 3064s | yeah and for example people people will |
| 3067s | bring up like 90-degree angles like |
| 3070s | night triangle node I tried triangle |
| 3072s | pieces that are 90 degrees it's like |
| 3074s | half like you slash a foundation in half |
| 3077s | and that would for example that would |
| 3079s | require adding a wall that's a little |
| 3081s | bit longer than the wall that we |
| 3082s | currently have because he has a stand on |
| 3084s | the hypothenuse there are so my math now |
| 3088s | there are some kind of socket connection |
| 3091s | issues right that we always have to |
| 3094s | solve whenever we add a new piece yeah |
| 3096s | that's okay we just look at them and |
| 3098s | solve them right it's more about in some |
| 3099s | cases you cannot actually solve it |
| 3102s | without allowing the piece to polymorph |
| 3104s | at the moment of placing yeah allowing |
| 3107s | the piece to actually guess what it |
| 3110s | should look like to do whatever the |
| 3112s | player is trying to do that becomes more |
| 3114s | complicated right right |
| 3115s | anyways next thing next thing all right |
| 3121s | this might be a bit of a tough one but |
| 3124s | we're gonna try it eventually so Quaglia |
| 3129s | yeah qualia asks lots of elves today yes |
| 3134s | many official servers have somewhat low |
| 3138s | populations if the numbers do not pick |
| 3139s | up after the pet updates are there any |
| 3141s | plans to rationalize the total number of |
| 3143s | servers if yes and servers are closed / |
| 3146s | removed would current characters be |
| 3148s | moved to another server |
| 3151s | [Music] |
| 3157s | we don't know yet right that's the short |
| 3160s | answer I was thinking on on how long of |
| 3163s | an answer should be on this we actually |
| 3164s | don't know yet we are already doing |
| 3166s | things to try to get people together |
| 3169s | playing in the same server right we |
| 3172s | identified like one of the typical |
| 3174s | barriers of entry for people is starting |
| 3176s | anew in a new server is that especially |
| 3179s | in PvP environments is that well they're |
| 3181s | up against where is the current |
| 3183s | population or the server yeah which |
| 3185s | typically would be low it will be like |
| 3188s | two or three guys that run on some alpha |
| 3189s | clan with a giant castle in the |
| 3192s | mountains all right yeah right and he's |
| 3193s | like there's no point as trying to study |
| 3196s | in this server it's gonna take us |
| 3197s | however long to get to the point where |
| 3199s | we can even start competing with these |
| 3200s | guys yeah and then during that time we |
| 3203s | are the mercy of whatever they want to |
| 3204s | do and it's gonna be all cool and dandy |
| 3206s | at the beginning when it's oh and you |
| 3208s | people say oh yeah but then at some |
| 3211s | point when they see that new people |
| 3214s | actually become a threat because these |
| 3216s | are alpha people to start with we have |
| 3218s | them myself |
| 3219s | yep then it's not gonna be floral |
| 3221s | flowers anymore and at that point you |
| 3223s | just invested 30 days on building up in |
| 3226s | a new server and now you have to vacate |
| 3228s | yeah so this is why we added the 4 x XP |
| 3233s | multiplier right to TCP service yeah |
| 3235s | that's the experiment |
| 3237s | we're running there we're trying to see |
| 3238s | what kind of impact that has right for |
| 3242s | PvE services have it I mean the dynamics |
| 3244s | are not exactly the same but they're |
| 3245s | kind of similar actually you don't feel |
| 3248s | like you have the ability to make a |
| 3250s | difference in a PvE server like become |
| 3253s | not necessarily an opposing King or |
| 3256s | whatever but you know develop and build |
| 3257s | something cool and just leave there you |
| 3260s | don't feel that way then you're just not |
| 3262s | gonna there's no reason for you to try |
| 3264s | to play in a server with other people |
| 3266s | and they only saw me over time servers |
| 3270s | of course lose people because they move |
| 3272s | for because they move to different games |
| 3273s | or whatever yeah and then people become |
| 3275s | lonely and it does not fun for anybody |
| 3278s | and I think everyone recognizes that how |
| 3280s | it's actually not fun to keep people of |
| 3282s | your server which is the win condition |
| 3283s | for most people yes like the server is |
| 3286s | ours we win oh yeah ok |
| 3288s | now we're alone right so we're trying to |
| 3291s | make it as easy as possible for people |
| 3292s | to restart any on your server |
| 3294s | right that's the spirimals running we |
| 3297s | don't have any news about actually |
| 3299s | merging servers at the moment but we're |
| 3302s | trying to you know approach this format |
| 3304s | for now social dynamics can at some |
| 3307s | point and this is exactly this is |
| 3309s | exactly the conversation that led to f4 |
| 3311s | x XP multiplier on pv servers yep yep |
| 3316s | all right next up from sir Dave wolf |
| 3323s | what do you think about removing all |
| 3325s | attribute bonuses on all armors and |
| 3327s | implementing special armor kits that |
| 3329s | will add one specific attribute bonus to |
| 3331s | an armor piece this would allow players |
| 3333s | to control their builds independently of |
| 3334s | the armor style so we get to see all the |
| 3336s | other cool armors in the game in PvP |
| 3339s | these kids can come in three tiers +1 +2 |
| 3341s | +3 resulting in a total of 15 stats per |
| 3343s | armor set I much rather sorry I'm gonna |
| 3348s | go against what you're saying there's a |
| 3349s | second a core concept I much rather make |
| 3352s | all attributes be useful in PvP right so |
| 3355s | not everybody wears the same armor and |
| 3358s | that's what I would focus my efforts |
| 3360s | there I think it's okay if a certain |
| 3365s | visual style corresponds to a certain |
| 3368s | character ability to do things I think |
| 3372s | is actually positive for the game that |
| 3374s | you can look at somebody yeah and be |
| 3376s | able to recognize what's this guy's deal |
| 3379s | that actually helps creating build the |
| 3382s | condition planning your strategy removes |
| 3385s | an element of chaos because you know |
| 3386s | what it has about yeah I think the |
| 3387s | problem there is actually that everybody |
| 3389s | wears the same gear because some of |
| 3391s | these attributes are considered to be |
| 3393s | much stronger than others yeah like |
| 3394s | people will more often I'll probably go |
| 3397s | for strength vitality build rather than |
| 3399s | encumbrance or survivable so depending |
| 3402s | on how they play of course our mission |
| 3404s | there and I mean these we have already |
| 3405s | don't know quite a lot of stuff to try |
| 3407s | to make what people consider secondary |
| 3410s | attributes yeah like survival attractive |
| 3414s | to everyone right the mission there is |
| 3416s | that everybody will want to have all the |
| 3418s | stats at all times |
| 3419s | oh yeah yeah of course all the stats you |
| 3421s | want to have every single status that's |
| 3423s | a bit of a of segregation there that is |
| 3428s | on purpose between the Millea stuff and |
| 3430s | the range stuff yeah because we don't |
| 3432s | want someone to be an amazing Malay |
| 3435s | fighter and an amazing archer at the |
| 3437s | same time that's that's very dangerous |
| 3439s | right for the gameplay dynamics right |
| 3441s | but or an amazing tag and amazing DPS an |
| 3445s | amazing Archer and I can just shoot |
| 3448s | rockets right yeah is it that's not |
| 3450s | gonna work we want people to be to have |
| 3452s | to make choices right but we want all |
| 3455s | the choices to be attractive and all the |
| 3458s | choices to be valid right though that's |
| 3460s | basically so now yeah this is a |
| 3462s | conscious decision we do not want to |
| 3463s | support gameplay transports in that way |
| 3467s | yeah right it gets a bit more |
| 3469s | complicated when you look at the DLC are |
| 3471s | more stuff yes right because because at |
| 3474s | some point you I mean there you have to |
| 3476s | do a concession between okay DLC are |
| 3477s | more only has this stat or every DLC has |
| 3480s | a different start whatever or okay well |
| 3482s | people that wear DLC amor are basically |
| 3484s | hiding this back yeah all right so yeah |
| 3488s | that's where still is still that we're |
| 3490s | still talking about that one |
| 3491s | I was just replying so on in chat anyway |
| 3498s | to people I'm talking to people while |
| 3501s | I'm talking to you talk to people |
| 3502s | listening all right |
| 3506s | here's an interesting one will solo from |
| 3509s | shadows ax will solo co-op players have |
| 3511s | the opportunity to have more than one |
| 3513s | save I would like to have the |
| 3515s | opportunity to save the world where I |
| 3516s | invited a friend to play and a second |
| 3518s | save where I can play solo in my own |
| 3519s | world my friend is in the military in |
| 3521s | Hannibal Burres play sometimes for over |
| 3523s | nine months I would like to keep our |
| 3524s | shared game for many returns while still |
| 3526s | having the option of changing things up |
| 3528s | in my own I would like to implement that |
| 3530s | um it's now at least it's not very high |
| 3533s | in the list but it is in our list that's |
| 3538s | it yes it's a great idea I would love to |
| 3541s | have it |
| 3544s | okay let's question next question is |
| 3550s | there a is there a future plan to add |
| 3552s | some cool player mods directly into the |
| 3554s | game |
| 3556s | [Music] |
| 3558s | yes and no we do look at what people |
| 3562s | want from the game right and a very good |
| 3564s | way of looking at what people want is |
| 3566s | looking at what mod stages and we know |
| 3568s | what most people use yeah so features |
| 3572s | that are so prominent and so spread that |
| 3577s | everybody uses them we definitely are |
| 3579s | looking at them and some of them we have |
| 3581s | already integrated a lot of there a lot |
| 3583s | of the industry changes that we have |
| 3584s | done as tango song have come or being |
| 3587s | inspired at least by some of the mods |
| 3589s | that people have made yeah |
| 3590s | on the other hand we don't we do not |
| 3592s | want to destroy their world their mother |
| 3594s | Sapta and we do not want to steal their |
| 3596s | thunder yeah right so even though I'm |
| 3598s | sure that mother's intention is to just |
| 3600s | better the game anyways and I'm sure |
| 3602s | most of them would be happy with us yeah |
| 3604s | and their stuff |
| 3605s | there's no reason for us to for example |
| 3607s | and do what people does because people |
| 3610s | mode is fantastic yeah and it's really |
| 3612s | great on what it does and implemented on |
| 3616s | well that would actually be a ton of |
| 3617s | work for us and it's completely |
| 3618s | necessary we are we are perfectly happy |
| 3621s | with people using BB mod and people |
| 3623s | should use it if they want to |
| 3625s | yeah right so so yeah we do look at mods |
| 3629s | and we do look at them for inspiration |
| 3631s | and to look at them to figure out what |
| 3634s | features people really want and they |
| 3635s | don't tell us that they want them but |
| 3637s | they do want them yeah and but no it's |
| 3640s | not always a the best idea to just you |
| 3644s | know implement everything that's made in |
| 3645s | a mod when you look at most also need to |
| 3648s | think about there's a difference between |
| 3649s | between what the majority of people want |
| 3652s | and what everybody wants and whatever we |
| 3655s | put in the game is for everybody yeah |
| 3657s | not just for the majority so and |
| 3659s | sometimes things like this just cannot |
| 3661s | be a democracy just know how it works |
| 3663s | right this this might also be somewhat |
| 3666s | unpopular statement from for me at least |
| 3668s | but sometimes mod creators don't like |
| 3672s | they they don't have to care about what |
| 3674s | they break |
| 3675s | and it sounds like I'm attacking mothers |
| 3678s | I'm absolutely not because they do some |
| 3679s | amazing work but like sometimes we will |
| 3683s | add a patch and then something happens |
| 3686s | with a mod that just breaks the game |
| 3689s | unfortunately and if that mod mod |
| 3692s | creator isn't working on it anymore then |
| 3694s | well tough luck to what I was using them |
| 3696s | in that case it actually would help if |
| 3698s | we will have implemented what the mark |
| 3699s | maker made I guess we would have to make |
| 3703s | by speaking from a very like dumb non |
| 3706s | technical standpoint feels like you're |
| 3708s | you're the technical person I just do |
| 3709s | marketing I'm just a pretty face so the |
| 3713s | bottom line there is we absolutely love |
| 3716s | the people are making much for the game |
| 3718s | we most are a fantastic service because |
| 3722s | of inspiration in general on any game to |
| 3724s | just try to figure out what the players |
| 3727s | really want right but just because a |
| 3729s | feature is popular doesn't mean it |
| 3731s | should be in the game I should be in the |
| 3733s | game for those people that like the |
| 3735s | feature you're popular which is not |
| 3736s | everybody and some features that are |
| 3738s | really popular and not for everybody |
| 3740s | sure right and it's very difficult for |
| 3743s | the people in the group that they'll |
| 3745s | like the thing to realize how you know |
| 3748s | this thing that you really like it those |
| 3750s | guys really hate it if you actually make |
| 3752s | them stop playing the game so you play |
| 3754s | with the mod and they play without it |
| 3755s | and everybody's happy right I have some |
| 3760s | news actually about the first name was |
| 3763s | the technical name of this I don't want |
| 3765s | myself to clinical name |
| 3767s | downloader I gotta find it before to do |
| 3769s | you have never seen this government so |
| 3772s | super eyes the autumn all download |
| 3775s | they're not surprised because I score |
| 3776s | glasses the auto mode downloader is |
| 3779s | basically a system by which when you |
| 3782s | connect to a server you will get the |
| 3785s | monsters every users yeah and this is |
| 3787s | just like it happens right it's almost |
| 3791s | finished getting implemented almost |
| 3795s | finished right and is almost ready to |
| 3797s | enter actual play testing face so this |
| 3801s | is coming and then you will have the |
| 3804s | ability to you know you run a private |
| 3805s | server and you want to set the rules for |
| 3807s | your server you want these |
| 3808s | particular RP PAC or you want everybody |
| 3811s | in the server to use PP mode or not to |
| 3813s | use PP mod right then you can sit there |
| 3815s | was I saying okay there you go decide |
| 3816s | the most of the server runs right then |
| 3819s | of course it puts responsibility on the |
| 3820s | server and means to make sure that the |
| 3822s | mods are running or not actually making |
| 3825s | the experience worse but I mean that's |
| 3826s | your job as an observer I mean to start |
| 3828s | with anyway see people don't like what |
| 3830s | you do they will not blame your server |
| 3831s | surely no one so again it's about |
| 3833s | putting little consulate in the hand so |
| 3835s | even please the power to alter the game |
| 3837s | in any way they want yeah but we need to |
| 3842s | care about the integrity of the game as |
| 3843s | a whole for everybody and not every |
| 3846s | popular choice is the best choice for |
| 3849s | the game right for everybody yeah right |
| 3851s | so I said all right without being said |
| 3855s | most of great some of the most that we |
| 3857s | have the mote community is fantastic and |
| 3859s | some of the most that we have our |
| 3860s | ridiculous that amazing oh yeah absent |
| 3863s | and thank you thank you very much for |
| 3865s | making what's for our game we love you |
| 3867s | guys please keep doing that yes I check |
| 3871s | out anything just Josh tech is doing |
| 3873s | like or Cookie Monster or something else |
| 3875s | team like he's super good really really |
| 3878s | talented people spending their their |
| 3880s | free time and many many hours of very |
| 3883s | complicated work to make stuff for for |
| 3886s | you guys and for us right right yeah we |
| 3890s | we're not saying that you should stop |
| 3892s | playing official servers but like if you |
| 3895s | know if you find a mod that you think |
| 3897s | enhances your game experience like go |
| 3900s | for it you know or if you find |
| 3901s | unofficial server that uses a mode that |
| 3904s | you enjoy then jump into that like we we |
| 3907s | want you guys to sort of use the tools |
| 3910s | available to craft your own experience |
| 3912s | basically this choice I mean the moment |
| 3913s | we decided to promote sin again we |
| 3915s | decided that we wanted people to |
| 3917s | personalize an experience yeah and to do |
| 3919s | crazy things you want to make you want |
| 3920s | to make characters working wrong with |
| 3923s | alien heads yeah just because you're |
| 3924s | perfect you do whatever you want that's |
| 3926s | what the aim has months it's probably |
| 3927s | someone's gonna make that you should |
| 3930s | come on little things undergone Firefly |
| 3934s | told me to have another beer so I I had |
| 3935s | all right well I think we're gonna do |
| 3937s | one more don't farm or only one final |
| 3941s | one and then we're gonna raffle away the |
| 3943s | gaming chair this was in an hour you |
| 3945s | have some kind of this an hour time span |
| 3947s | that's numbers it is 10 past six that's |
| 3950s | a time for five minutes dr. strange on |
| 3955s | you yeah |
| 3956s | important feedback from twitch stream we |
| 3958s | need more Hannah my armors DLC do I |
| 3960s | don't know if you can start like working |
| 3962s | on some sort of like do we super Sayan |
| 3964s | like do I need some weebles like Vegeta |
| 3967s | planet Vegeta type armor thing you know |
| 3971s | what somebody should make a mod |
| 3972s | someone's probably done that already |
| 3974s | somebody should make a mod with anime |
| 3977s | hours I mean some someone might have |
| 3980s | done that see this is exactly what most |
| 3982s | important yes alright I'm gonna do one |
| 3987s | more oh yeah you have to at some point |
| 3993s | you didn't even go over the okay okay |
| 3996s | we'd ready okay what do you want to talk |
| 3998s | about something I have something for DMR |
| 4002s | gone okay shoot |
| 4003s | final thing from Palm 5:22 who says that |
| 4008s | palm five palm 5:22 he used to be 521 |
| 4012s | seven that was 522 buildings are |
| 4014s | sometimes a pain to load especially when |
| 4015s | a base is particularly large you've |
| 4017s | talked about improvements to the |
| 4018s | buildings before what kind of approve |
| 4020s | improvements can we expect to see and |
| 4021s | when mmm-hmm okay so we are working on |
| 4027s | em I'm gonna use technical terms please |
| 4031s | please don't leave don't get scared |
| 4033s | please stay because we're raffling away |
| 4036s | a chair oh so they have to stay okay yes |
| 4038s | so we are working on on persistence |
| 4042s | improvements for the building storage |
| 4046s | system basically we're doing testing on |
| 4049s | days is not it's not quite finished yet |
| 4051s | I think some of you that are in the |
| 4052s | kinda in the loop for the mod community |
| 4054s | and staff people that talk with Nicola a |
| 4056s | lot yeah you know because I mean this is |
| 4058s | his baby he he talks about girls at home |
| 4060s | so dynamic so he actually has been |
| 4063s | working on this for quite some time and |
| 4064s | trying to reduce the |
| 4068s | not only the memory footprint of |
| 4070s | buildings but also our most importantly |
| 4074s | the loading speeds of anything that's |
| 4077s | persisted yeah |
| 4078s | and the bigger problem there is |
| 4080s | buildings buildings are is very easily |
| 4083s | to actually end up with a building |
| 4084s | there's thousands of pieces you don't |
| 4086s | even notice that's actually thousands of |
| 4089s | pieces on your little pyramid and |
| 4091s | getting all that to load quickly no |
| 4094s | that's a technical challenge yeah so |
| 4096s | Nicola has been working on these I also |
| 4098s | heard actually hard numbers on these |
| 4100s | which are pretty amazing here's the hard |
| 4102s | numbers so the hardest he's working from |
| 4105s | from databases that we have gotten from |
| 4108s | some servers which I guaranteed you have |
| 4112s | absolutely extreme buildings these |
| 4116s | things are these things are ridiculous |
| 4118s | you wouldn't believe like fifty thousand |
| 4119s | building pieces no like huge that's just |
| 4125s | big huge stuff right so and the test is |
| 4129s | basically pretty straightforward is how |
| 4130s | quickly can this whole thing load right |
| 4132s | so in some of the we have seen |
| 4134s | absolutely dramatic improvements on |
| 4136s | things and just gives you an example a |
| 4138s | base that used to take three minutes to |
| 4141s | load this is three minutes for the base |
| 4143s | to load this is how big the base was now |
| 4145s | Lowe's in less than 20 seconds it's |
| 4148s | quick so this is the kind of stuff that |
| 4150s | we're testing is is crazy so this is |
| 4154s | gonna go to test life soon for we're |
| 4156s | going to test because it needs testing |
| 4159s | because it needs a lot of testing I mean |
| 4161s | it's gone through a lot already but it's |
| 4163s | gonna need more so this also what you're |
| 4167s | gonna see in the game is that when you |
| 4168s | approach the base as a ginormous for you |
| 4171s | as they as the player |
| 4172s | this thing is run a lot much faster |
| 4174s | right yeah right but on the server side |
| 4177s | of things the server is going to be on |
| 4179s | the way less stress for what's going on |
| 4180s | there so the server doesn't need to be |
| 4182s | it does a number of people running |
| 4184s | around this place |
| 4184s | the server is constantly trying to get |
| 4186s | chapped and load all these and they're |
| 4188s | trying to throttle that and try to give |
| 4190s | some time to that give some time to aiai |
| 4192s | start doing weird things right so this |
| 4195s | improvement will affect a ton of stuff |
| 4197s | and is absolutely it's dramatic you |
| 4200s | we'll see so yes that's what we have |
| 4202s | probably any stuff that's also something |
| 4204s | this will be more like on my field of |
| 4206s | things every more like design we should |
| 4208s | wash your stuff but we are also looking |
| 4210s | and changing the paradigm a little bit |
| 4215s | for how people construct the basis no we |
| 4217s | wouldn't change it would you guys will |
| 4219s | change it we're trying to alter your |
| 4220s | behavior |
| 4221s | no just change your basis yeah so right |
| 4226s | now it is pretty standard for people to |
| 4228s | build these kind of general most |
| 4229s | factorial setups of eight furnaces |
| 4233s | churning out bricks so they can do |
| 4236s | reinforced bricks and then blacksmiths |
| 4238s | churning out steel reinforcements and |
| 4240s | all the stuff and is like you place |
| 4242s | furnace and you don't place one furnace |
| 4244s | you plays eight furnaces and eight |
| 4247s | tanneries and 200 honey maybe like |
| 4252s | honeycombs or whatever right so a |
| 4254s | beehives sorry so we are looking at that |
| 4258s | and we're actually looking at why people |
| 4260s | do that yeah so we're looking at |
| 4262s | changing the paradigm a little bit so to |
| 4265s | give you more options so instead of |
| 4266s | having to make because you do that |
| 4269s | because you feel like you have to in |
| 4270s | order to keep up with the production |
| 4271s | that you need yeah basic |
| 4272s | transformational materials right instead |
| 4275s | of doing that we would make it so you |
| 4279s | can you can multiplex things or you can |
| 4281s | build things in bundles for example |
| 4284s | right so you don't need to make a |
| 4285s | furnaces when one furnace gives you the |
| 4288s | yield of eight furnaces then you just |
| 4290s | make one furnace right and that's a |
| 4292s | point where it's just too much so you |
| 4293s | just we're not going to bother making |
| 4295s | more furnaces than you need because they |
| 4297s | take a lot of space or whatever yeah you |
| 4299s | can still build 200 like two columns of |
| 4303s | 200 furnaces because you want to make |
| 4304s | Moria or whatever yeah that's fine you |
| 4308s | can still do that but at least you won't |
| 4309s | feel like it's a game play need to do |
| 4311s | this because right now it feels like |
| 4312s | that right so we're looking basically |
| 4314s | and making your your crafting station |
| 4317s | specifically the machines level up like |
| 4321s | go up right now just get fatter but get |
| 4325s | taller right and that will help with |
| 4329s | building as well because now there's |
| 4331s | there's gonna be less of these |
| 4334s | stations all over the place yeah right |
| 4336s | it also puts more importance on you know |
| 4338s | your layout for your base and and |
| 4341s | properly defending your things like if |
| 4345s | you have to give with your crafting |
| 4347s | stations you suddenly become very |
| 4349s | expensive and I mean investment that you |
| 4350s | have to do overtime to be yeah you know |
| 4352s | increase them in level or whatever and |
| 4354s | with level Alamein they gain XP and you |
| 4356s | level demand there's no what I mean is |
| 4357s | more like tears right about tears that |
| 4359s | cost to be honest tough so well your |
| 4362s | tier 5 furnace is expensive if you don't |
| 4365s | want to lose it so you need to beat your |
| 4367s | base around that concept yeah right okay |
| 4373s | that's the end of the Q&A part more |
| 4376s | sorry if we didn't get to get around to |
| 4379s | answering your question like but we |
| 4381s | because like I had we had three three |
| 4384s | pages here they are my sweet pay you |
| 4387s | have the questions I have we got through |
| 4388s | two so we got we did manage to go |
| 4391s | through a lot of them you know we need |
| 4393s | to stop doing this is gonna be a screen |
| 4395s | caps and freezes and like so many other |
| 4397s | things we'll see we'll see all right so |
| 4400s | we're gonna move on we're gonna raffle |
| 4402s | away a gaming chair and the gaming chair |
| 4406s | it looks like this it is given to us |
| 4409s | from our good friends at stack up which |
| 4412s | is a charity organization that we that |
| 4415s | we worked with around launch for a |
| 4418s | charity event where we had streamers |
| 4420s | play the game for an entire weekend they |
| 4422s | would they would do a bunch of donation |
| 4426s | drives all that kind of stuff and in |
| 4428s | total we managed to |
| 4430s | to raise that's the question I'm looking |
| 4431s | for we managed to raise over ten |
| 4433s | thousand dollars for charity directly to |
| 4436s | stack up which I'm very very proud of |
| 4437s | and so they they emailed me like a |
| 4441s | couple of weeks ago and just said like |
| 4442s | hey since you managed to raise this much |
| 4444s | money like you can give away this chair |
| 4447s | to a player or to a veteran if you know |
| 4449s | what I want and I just ask hey can we |
| 4451s | give their way in the stream they said |
| 4452s | yes yes you do |
| 4453s | so unfortunately this is only going to |
| 4456s | be available to people in our twitch |
| 4458s | chat the reason for that as I said a |
| 4461s | couple times before already said sadly |
| 4462s | right now mixer doesn't allow you to DM |
| 4465s | someone so it's a bit of a it takes a |
| 4469s | lot of work to get a hold of people |
| 4470s | because even if they win if you try to |
| 4473s | whisper to them and then that's |
| 4474s | difficult and maybe not everyone has a |
| 4476s | like a full Microsoft account you can |
| 4479s | it's a whole passel it's easier to do it |
| 4482s | on Twitch basically so so how do people |

| 4745s | will be happy to hear about which is |
| 4748s | that we have addressed the issues with |
| 4751s | traps and further damage in general like |
| 4755s | for example como fields from combining |
| 4757s | oil we fire right doing damage in |
| 4761s | situations where they should not be |
| 4762s | doing damage so for example these things |
| 4765s | would in certain conditions they could |
| 4768s | actually damage the structures or side |
| 4770s | of PvP windows right or MPV service in |
| 4773s | general we that's one of the kind of big |
| 4776s | ones that we have fix we have also fix |
