69s	check check
71s	oh yeah i see people joining hello
74s	we are getting the last bits of
75s	preparation
77s	going on here
80s	we are almost there welcome welcome
83s	seeing a lot of faces that i have seen
86s	before that is a very weird way to put
89s	reading text from users
93s	in a chat room
106s	all right
124s	i don't know if you heard that whole
125s	thunk that was my door closing almost
129s	ready
146s	[Music]

172s	[Music]
180s	for those wondering yes that is a
181s	vindicator
184s	this is a vindicator
186s	100 percent
218s	welcome ladies and gentlemen to the
220s	official rockfish game stream i'm your
222s	host and your guide eric schroeder the
224s	community ambassador for rockfish games
227s	also your guide through all things
229s	everspace 2 related oh my goodness how
232s	are you all doing on this lovely friday
234s	i hope that it's fantastic for you been
236s	fantastic for me this week has been
238s	rather delightful we've made a lot of
240s	internal progress as you're gonna find
242s	out a little bit about that um but uh
244s	mainly it's been like with the drake
247s	system and it's little integral features
249s	uh that i can't so much talk about but i
251s	do have stuff that i can actually show
253s	today so that's exciting new stuff to
256s	actually show and talk about so a quick
258s	rundown of what that looks like we're
259s	going to be covering uh some consumable
262s	stuff
263s	and we're also going to be talking about
264s	some of the varying updates that we've
266s	been making along the way um that kind
269s	of includes some little features and
271s	tweaks like quality of life features
272s	stuff like that um as well as a couple
274s	improvements um but i think you guys
276s	will uh
278s	like i think you'll appreciate so we'll
280s	just cover a slew of those um and we'll
283s	be flying around doing high-risk areas
285s	uh you know other things that we can do
288s	in the game uh take on some jobs i don't
291s	know
291s	we could do a lot of different things
293s	all the while answering your questions
296s	and having conversations with you
297s	because as you guys know this is a
299s	community focused stream
301s	we put you first and that's why that's
304s	why these videos exist at all it's why
306s	we do these live streams
308s	so if any content is shown or you have
310s	any questions about the game feel free
312s	to ask in shot we have a number of
314s	people who are standing by to assist to
317s	help answer anything that i might miss
319s	otherwise uh i have i have a decent
322s	wealth of knowledge on the game and
324s	what's happening so i'm more than happy
327s	to help you have that understanding of
329s	your expectation what we're providing
332s	all that type of stuff all that type of
333s	stuff
335s	big old disclaimer so let's get right
336s	into this
337s	let's go ahead and load into our new
340s	game
341s	and by new game i mean the one that
343s	we've been playing i changed the colors
344s	of my vindicator because i uh
347s	i didn't like the red the red yellow
349s	whatever the
350s	or people calling it i don't even know
352s	what you're calling it so i changed it
353s	to this it's got almost like i don't
355s	know it's it's got almost like a vintage
357s	feel to it and i i just dig it i really
360s	like the way this one came out so this
361s	is what we are going to be using at
362s	least for a while
364s	this vindicator uh we can swap around uh
367s	some other ships so just like last time
369s	whenever i started the streams i
371s	realized how important it is to like
373s	cover your layout and all of your
375s	attributes and everything so we're going
376s	to kind of do that first before we
378s	launch this vindicator build is stylized
381s	in a way to kind of like keep its drones
383s	alive uh so it does have a lot of
386s	firepower of course
387s	uh and a bit of expertise and utility so
390s	we're gonna be using the uh devices in
392s	conjunction uh with our drones uh the
396s	main component to keep our drones alive
398s	is this nanotransmitter so distribution
400s	also repairs nearby allies so when we
402s	use it we heal up our drones while we
405s	attack that's why we need that firepower
407s	so high to get a lot of health
410s	on that front uh we're also using fusion
412s	hook uh kunai and emp generator shield
415s	surge uh because i want to play a little
417s	bit more defensively i screw that i want
419s	more damage i'm just going damage i
421s	don't care that's what i want
423s	i want to damage um and
427s	that might not be the best thing
428s	actually but uh i don't care that's what
430s	i'm going with we're gonna go damage
433s	our passives uh both of these autumn
435s	kind of like over drones regenerate one
436s	hole per second which i love and 50
438s	reduced damage from enemy drones uh and
441s	then wreck interaction range is about
443s	800
444s	meters
446s	through my expertise being this height
449s	uh last but not least the weapons we're
451s	using we've got this marksman thermogun
453s	which i'm very very happy with we've got
456s	this calibrated scatter gun
458s	which is also proved to be quite
460s	resourceful and then we have these
461s	powerful scorpion missiles these are
463s	star forged powerful scorpion missiles
465s	these things are insane
467s	and they auto fire they have a chance to
468s	auto fire so as we're blasting away with
470s	our thermal gun we have a chance uh with
472s	our high precision when we hit we get a
473s	critical hit there's a chance that the
476s	scorpion missile will just freely launch
479s	um yeah and it doesn't consume a missile
482s	when it does that
483s	then we got some pretty standard gear i
485s	say standard in the sense of it's all
487s	level 22 um superior stuff providing
491s	benefits that you know you would think
492s	are pretty traditional
494s	and we are holding on to a couple items
496s	that we may or may not swap between just
498s	depending on what happens
501s	we have one signal decoder
503s	i probably could have prepped that a
504s	little bit better whoops been
505s	highlighting so many other things i
507s	didn't think about making more signals
508s	decoders but uh we'll go to kite nebula
511s	uh and probably do this at a different
513s	ship
514s	because uh
515s	that just looks like complete
516s	destruction for
518s	my drones that explosive death modifier
520s	there that mutator
523s	uh but yeah otherwise
524s	pretty happy with this build uh let's go
526s	ahead and talk about these devices uh
529s	some of which you already are very
531s	familiar with right like the sticky
532s	turret
533s	the nano injector
535s	the nanobots medium and this one's
537s	different this is a peacemaker
539s	this is a peacemaker so here we're going
541s	to crack into the consumables that's
544s	what i'm getting at right here to crack
546s	into some of these new consumables that
548s	we've got the peacemaker disables enemy
550s	weapons and a 700 meter radius around
552s	the ship for five seconds so this could
553s	be used in a pinch when you're just uh
555s	getting pummeled
557s	and you launch it it affects all ships
559s	in that 700 meter radius and the uh yeah
562s	they just stopped firing it's similar to
564s	emp uh but you can
567s	use it in conjunction with using emp so
569s	like you can use your emp to do damage
571s	over time then when that drains off then
573s	you can use peacemaker so there's like
574s	effectively no cooldown um but remember
577s	consumables are consumed upon use
580s	so there may be a time and a place for
582s	you to to capitalize on using this bad
584s	boy
585s	um even against foes that are emp immune
588s	for example uh but yeah
590s	so let's go ahead and crack into the
592s	crafting and go to this tab which we
594s	haven't looked at for a while we're i'm
596s	like i'm diving straight in i'm diving
598s	straight into all this guys
601s	so in the crafting we do have this
603s	consumables tab um and the resources
606s	that you need for these this has not
608s	been ironed out now but i do want to
610s	show you this
611s	because this is part of the process of
614s	us navigating the costs for a lot of
618s	different items maybe even the primaries
620s	secondaries modules components and
622s	possibly even catalysts
624s	so here you can see that there's
625s	crafting resources in conjunction with
628s	like components
631s	and this is going to be a theme as we go
633s	through all of these
637s	and uh i think i think it even gets uh
642s	are there any straight-up resources no
643s	they're not but we're going to talk
644s	about all of the the current consumables
648s	and just a little bit just showing this
650s	this is work in progress of course i
652s	feel like i shouldn't say that
653s	disclaimer because you know it's early
655s	access but still there you go um but
658s	yeah
659s	so combination of crafting uh components
663s	as well as uh or crafting ingredients
666s	and components excuse me so we have the
668s	straight up
670s	uh common
671s	blueprints for your energy injector your
673s	nanobots and your damage limiter here
677s	we've got uncommons we got the damage
679s	booster which you're familiar with we
681s	got the nanobots medium the sticky
683s	turret
684s	then we got a couple more
685s	now clearly
688s	these and these icons are not finished
690s	yet we will have unique icons for each
692s	one of these
694s	but let's crack into them so you can see
696s	how they are as i answer one quick
698s	question which is how are you doing
699s	anyways eric i'm doing lovely i really
701s	am i'm having a really good day uh it's
703s	been a good week
705s	a lot of really good progress
706s	i'm behind on one territory but let's
708s	not tell michael okay don't don't tell
710s	michael at all that i'm behind on one
711s	little thing that i'm doing but
712s	otherwise everything else comes along
714s	great uh yeah it's been good
719s	uh let's see what else what else
722s	we're good let's keep going so we got
724s	the peacemaker we just talked about 700
725s	meter radius disables all ships for five
728s	seconds can really come in a pinch next
730s	we got this
731s	mineral mender
733s	so for five seconds
735s	when you mine ore
736s	you recover your armor by ten percent
741s	every time you you mine
744s	or
744s	you repair your armor by 10
747s	so if you do this within with
748s	conjunction with like a flat cannon it
750s	will actually work like
751s	with all of the
753s	uh obtained ores like every single one
755s	and it stacks so you can repair a lot of
757s	your armor just it's very helpful to use
760s	especially if you're like in the middle
761s	of nowhere you don't really have a
763s	solution to get out uh and there's maybe
765s	like opponents nearby um you know having
768s	one of these and there's some ore nearby
770s	it can really come in a pinch next we
772s	have a system recovery routine i think
774s	you guys got a sneak peek at this one
776s	last week uh this one removes most
778s	debuffs and resets any debuff buildups
781s	so um
783s	debuff buildups that's that's an
785s	interesting that's that's interesting
786s	because that that doesn't exist in the
788s	game at all
790s	whatsoever
793s	ah but uh these debuffs you know it's
795s	you know you get
797s	you get emp'd you know you get corroded
799s	you get uh you know whatever you just
802s	pop this system recovery routine and it
804s	just wipes them off of you
806s	really nice really nice
808s	next up we've got the rare tab we got
811s	nanobots that are large the nanobot
813s	injector of course then we've got two
815s	more the nano repair kit this repairs a
818s	random damaged equipment item
820s	again another thing that can seriously
823s	come in a pinch
824s	next we've got a cloak field generator
829s	a cloak field generator
831s	renders the ship invisible to enemies
832s	for 15 seconds shooting may alert them
834s	to your position it's effectively your
837s	cloaking device
838s	however it's a consumable so every time
842s	you want to use it you've got to make a
843s	new one could get costly or if you
846s	balance out your resources correctly
848s	you could have cloaking on any ship of
850s	your choosing honestly there's probably
853s	going to be more benefits to using
854s	cloaking on
855s	the scout than any other one but still
858s	uh pretty neat pretty pretty nice last
861s	but not least we got the superior top to
863s	cover the remaining
865s	consumables we got the device charger
868s	this is my all-time favorite one this is
871s	this is amazing it is also insanely
874s	expensive even right now and again this
877s	is not done
878s	so it will probably change
881s	uh specifically we need to have you know
883s	some superior stuff down here but uh
886s	regardless the device charger instantly
889s	resets all device cooldowns
892s	instantly so that means you pop like you
894s	know you're in a you're in a tier 4 plus
897s	ship and you've got all four devices
899s	installed and you're in a late game
900s	you're level 30 and you're like finish
902s	the campaign and like you're doing this
904s	uh ancient rift right
907s	and you're in the middle of this battle
909s	you pop all four devices you pop your
911s	device charger you pop all four devices
913s	again and you have this stacking effect
915s	this absurd stacking effect going on
917s	which i want to put emphasis on does
919s	stack
921s	you get some serious value
923s	uh with the right devices in tandem with
926s	this device charger fantastic but again
929s	it's gonna cost you
931s	and last but not least we've got this
933s	energy shield
935s	deploys a shield that lasts for eight
936s	seconds and absorbs damage equivalent to
938s	thirty percent of your maximum whole hit
941s	points straight up absorbs 30 of
944s	whatever your maximum hole hit points
946s	are so could be more valuable the larger
949s	your ship is of course but uh still when
952s	you're a smaller vessel any damage
954s	recovered or blocked in this case is uh
957s	is wonderful it's fantastic
960s	so another very valuable item and
962s	probably will become even more valuable
964s	depending on what builds you're
966s	utilizing specifically if you're going
968s	for a beefier ship
971s	just to maximize that value of 30
974s	so that's uh that's what's going on and
977s	again i want to put a bit more emphasis
979s	on what's happening down here below so
981s	while of course i went through and i
982s	covered all of these different uh
984s	consumables that are entering the
985s	picture
986s	and you know their pictures are pending
990s	it's also seriously important to note
992s	that these crafting ingredients down
994s	here this is not just a representation
996s	of of what the consumables look like but
1000s	this could also be how we reapproach
1003s	crafting
1004s	all the other tools in the game
1008s	all the other tools in the game
1010s	your primaries your secondaries your
1012s	modules
1013s	even possibly your components that this
1016s	one might not get changed but um
1019s	but your primaries or secondaries or
1020s	modules there might be a couple of
1022s	tweaks
1023s	to how these are crafted um because we
1026s	want you to
1027s	you know put a lot of emphasis
1029s	in
1031s	getting this stuff without relying on
1033s	too much rng because like right now this
1036s	stuff you're just
1037s	scrapping stuff in your in your
1039s	inventory you're just finding junk and
1041s	you're scrapping it we also want there
1043s	to be that added effect of oh hey i need
1046s	this particular component which means i
1048s	need these specific resources so there's
1051s	validity and going to your map go into
1053s	your resource
1054s	uh
1056s	uh scanner right
1058s	and you say dang i really need that pure
1060s	titanium or whatever you look around to
1062s	find it and you say okay i'm heading to
1064s	union right we we've got a we got a plan
1067s	of attack now you can get there you can
1069s	get the ingredients you need and you can
1071s	stack up without just relying on luck to
1075s	get a superior item that has those parts
1077s	that you need
1079s	so uh
1081s	there you go that's a big chunk we
1083s	nailed it
1084s	only 15 minutes in and we've already
1086s	covered everything that you need to know
1088s	about uh consumables and their crafting
1091s	boom there we go all right that's a wrap
1093s	uh gg everybody
1099s	but sincerely i hope that this shows you
1101s	like that
1102s	intentionality we have moving forward so
1104s	do expect changes on that front um and
1106s	we do consider those to be quality of
1108s	life changes
1110s	in regards to how you are approaching
1112s	the game space
1114s	all right so now we need to head to the
1115s	kite nebula
1118s	with our little vindicator here
1121s	i love it i love my little drones hello
1124s	drones
1127s	and we're gonna get get there on the fly
1129s	now i think this was yes this was
1131s	adjusted
1132s	so this was also just a very small
1135s	quality of life change that hans
1136s	christian
1137s	uh fixed but in your guys current build
1139s	if you zoom all the way out um
1143s	this vanishes you can't actually see the
1145s	spatial bypass
1147s	so he fixed it uh so when you zoom all
1149s	the way out you can actually see it
1153s	super simple
1158s	[Music]
1166s	oh spoot knight i see your question uh
1168s	and then be destroyed in the process so
1170s	it turns the war into healing and isn't
1171s	it
1173s	isn't uh taken as a resource uh i am
1177s	let's find out let's find out together
1179s	let's find out together let's get this
1181s	mineral minder where are you at right
1183s	here
1184s	let's make one
1187s	[Music]
1189s	oh it crafted it crafted three i think
1191s	there's a bug there uh it's supposed to
1193s	be when you craft you get just one
1196s	you'll get used to it
1200s	i'm pretty sure the way that this works
1202s	we're just gonna wait for this to
1204s	we're just gonna wait for this to
1204s	complete it's got 10 seconds for its
1206s	cooldown you can see right there
1209s	once it's done we're going to pop it
1211s	and even though we don't have any armor
1212s	to get we're going to see if it destroys
1216s	actually we do need to get some armor
1217s	damage don't we
1218s	we're going to do that first all right
1220s	let's go get some damage
1230s	please hit me uh my drones are
1233s	i'm gonna need to lose all my drones
1234s	first
1246s	i think my drones are healing my armor
1249s	for me oh boy
1252s	builds too good
1254s	can't test properly
1258s	there's not enough enemies in this area
1259s	maybe we should just go to the high risk
1260s	area
1262s	that should do the trick right
1268s	that's a little bit well this this
1270s	should be fine right
1274s	this should be fine
1279s	so we're gonna put our shield back on
1286s	so we're gonna use the mineral minder
1289s	it's going right now and then we're
1291s	going to fire
1293s	yeah so it restores and it collects the
1295s	resources for you i thought it did but i
1297s	just want to double check yeah so um the
1299s	wording here it's mainly just talking
1301s	about
1302s	how the um
1305s	the consumables destroyed in the process
1306s	which i guess is a little bit redundant
1308s	because you guys know that the
1309s	consumables will be destroyed in the
1310s	process but still
1312s	some of these descriptions are still
1313s	being uh updated as well so that one
1315s	probably will be fixed uh i digress
1318s	there you go
1329s	so let's get ourselves an ancient warden
1332s	also want to do this
1334s	for this particular battle because we
1336s	don't want to scare him away
1346s	that's gonna heal our drones up just
1348s	like so
1351s	nice and simple
1358s	now i didn't talk about this last time
1359s	but there have been a few
1362s	modifications
1364s	to certain enemies the ancient warden
1366s	did receive a bit of an ai update so its
1369s	targeting is a lot better
1372s	its movement is a little bit uh wonkier
1375s	it's a little bit harder to hit
1377s	unless you're using you know a thermogen
1380s	and uh there's something else changing
1382s	about him but uh oh my gosh we're gonna
1383s	die
1390s	easy
1392s	there we go
1396s	easy peasy right
1398s	cool
1399s	all right so now we're going to activate
1401s	this
1402s	uh it's probably not gonna look so great
1403s	for our drones but screw it we're gonna
1404s	try anyway
1407s	but first let's try and get our armor
1409s	back
1410s	and i've got the perfect tool for that
1412s	oh my goodness
1415s	how about that
1424s	i'm gonna change my weaponry though to
1426s	make it just a little bit easier to mine
1428s	all right wait even even easier the
1430s	mining laser to mine let's do that
1440s	now hold up
1442s	why didn't you give me my armor back is
1444s	that a bug
1449s	that's a bug
1450s	well just pretend that my armor came
1452s	back that's how that consumable works
1454s	100
1456s	no problems at all in this work in
1457s	progress early access experience that
1459s	we're showing you new consumables for
1461s	the first time
1462s	excellent
1464s	all right
1466s	anyway so uh let's go ahead and go back
1467s	to our thermoguns since we're gonna be
1469s	fighting some
1472s	it's redeemers gonna be a little bit
1473s	easier
1474s	100 real no fake exactly oh goodness
1479s	any news on the fix of the planet
1481s	surface skybox bug on amd gpus uh we
1484s	have not heard from we have not heard
1486s	from them so no
1489s	we have not uh heard any fixes on that
1491s	front
1493s	nope
1496s	but yeah when there's an update if
1497s	there's an update hopefully it's a win
1500s	yeah we'll make sure that uh
1503s	we get that going and it's all
1504s	translated perfectly
1506s	[Music]
1511s	[Music]
1513s	difference between sustained and
1515s	efficient prefixes do they both just
1516s	reduce energy usage ah no sustained
1520s	actually let's let's look at the
1521s	descriptions because that's going to
1523s	help us out the most
1526s	ah let's see
1529s	uh see
1532s	are they not are they not listed here
1535s	they're not listed here i could have
1536s	sworn that we had the catalyst
1538s	craftables for
1540s	at least sustained i guess uh that was
1543s	changed out
1545s	may it was changed to eco
1547s	no
1551s	that's weird
1552s	but regardless um sustained i believe
1555s	increases the um energy capacity
1560s	i believe
1563s	um let me just look this up so i know ex
1565s	like directly so one second
1568s	i'm just gonna pull up my cheat sheet so
1570s	i can answer this question
1579s	that's a great a great question though
1596s	uh so sustained is increased
1599s	energy capacity yes
1603s	and then the other one you wanted to
1604s	compare it to shoot where was what was
1605s	the one that we're comparing it to
1608s	efficient
1612s	uh reduces the energy cost okay so there
1614s	it is
1615s	so sustain increases energy capacity
1618s	efficient reduces the energy cost i can
1620s	understand how some people view those as
1622s	sort of the same thing uh but in short
1626s	they're two very different things energy
1628s	capacity energy consumption right um and
1631s	this is important for certain equipment
1633s	that you find as you're progressing
1635s	especially tied to the energy core and
1637s	its particular output for your weaponry
1640s	if you have weapons that have a ton of
1643s	energy capacity but have a very small
1645s	amount of consumption um
1648s	actually like this
1649s	actually like both of our weapons
1651s	they're both pretty good on that front
1653s	um which is surprising for a thermal gun
1655s	but regardless
1657s	the because the energy consumption is
1659s	somewhat low uh compared to the energy
1661s	capacity we can fire it for a pretty
1662s	long time right so like
1664s	this can just we can keep firing for a
1666s	pretty considerable amount of time as
1668s	you reduce that
1671s	consumption that means you can fire
1673s	longer if you have a greater energy
1675s	capacity that means even if you're
1676s	burning through your energy consumption
1678s	faster
1679s	the larger energy pool means that based
1682s	on your regeneration
1684s	you can store more uh and there's going
1687s	to be benefits on that front as well so
1690s	kind of translates to firing longer on
1692s	both fronts
1693s	i do feel that reducing the consumption
1695s	is ultimately better because energy
1698s	core's output is particular on how much
1701s	energy per second you're getting back
1703s	so if you are more efficient
1706s	with a smaller energy pool you're going
1709s	to restore that energy pool faster and
1711s	still be efficient whereas if you have a
1713s	larger energy pool
1714s	but you are still consuming large
1716s	amounts of energy
1717s	uh then you're still going to take a
1719s	longer time to refuel that added energy
1722s	boom that you have to it
1724s	so
1725s	there you go
1726s	similar but different
1730s	hope that helps
1734s	all right
1735s	let's uh let's get around these evasive
1737s	exploding strength and death pose this
1740s	this is going to be it's going to be
1741s	nasty
1743s	i'm certain of it
1746s	yeah our drones are already getting
1748s	punished for this
1750s	not surprised whatsoever
1753s	those don't get too close
1758s	ouch okay
1762s	[Music]
1775s	i knew this was gonna happen with these
1776s	redeemers they're so
1779s	slippery me that energy back
1786s	ouch
1787s	man that's flashing which is actually a
1788s	lot
1794s	this is a dangerous play ouch look at
1797s	that damage
1800s	so something else to talk about that's
1802s	an up-and-coming change
1804s	[Music]
1807s	i just really like this music all right
1809s	um so
1810s	one thing that we have noted we want to
1813s	be kind of mindful about with
1814s	consumables and their usage especially
1816s	when you're in combat um it's not
1818s	implemented in this current build but
1820s	there's been discussions internally and
1822s	i feel like the play that we are going
1824s	to move forward with is that crafting
1827s	when you're in combat
1829s	is completely disabled
1832s	[Music]
1834s	i'm going to say that one more time for
1836s	anybody who just missed that when you
1837s	are in combat meaning i think it's that
1840s	i think it's the way that we distinguish
1842s	combat is like if you were hit in the
1844s	last 30 seconds and at a certain range
1846s	of enemies or something like that when
1847s	you are in combat
1849s	crafting is completely disabled so
1852s	if you are going to engage yourself in
1855s	combat you need to prepare yourself
1858s	first
1859s	for what that experience is going to be
1860s	like you can't just get into the thick
1862s	of it and be like oh well i want to
1863s	completely swap all my weapons around
1865s	right in the middle of this or i want to
1867s	you know create a slew of consumables
1870s	and do all this type of stuff i mean
1871s	there's already ramifications for
1872s	installing something in the midst of hot
1875s	swapping however on top of that again
1878s	crafting is completely gonna be disabled
1881s	when you are in combat so you have to
1883s	prepare before you engage
1886s	hopefully that makes sense to all of you
1888s	guys
1890s	but uh that is what's gonna be happening
1896s	let's get this crusader
1904s	oh it's gonna be big damage again ouch
1906s	man
1908s	this explosive death a bit more painful
1910s	than i thought it was gonna be
1913s	gotta really get some distance
1917s	[Music]
1918s	also there's a ton of elites in here too
1921s	my goodness
1931s	i like using thermogon on the uh
1934s	vindicator because it allows me to put a
1936s	little bit more focus on the drone so
1937s	like as you can see i can just like
1939s	target lock some debris nearby i could
1941s	keep shooting out an opponent and just
1942s	go get it
1945s	it's kind of nice oh that shield is in
1946s	the wrong spot
1949s	speaking of drones i uh basically don't
1951s	have any left
1954s	minor problems
1956s	is there any uh
1958s	wreckage nearby
1959s	oh yes maybe we can find some debris
1962s	over here
1964s	[Music]
1965s	debris please ah yeah that's what i like
1967s	to see
1968s	and this is consistent through the
1969s	entire game you vindicator players if
1971s	you're ever losing drones you're like
1972s	crap i need to scrap some more stuff
1974s	find a debris field you will likely find
1978s	wreckage
1980s	naturally generates there and it is in
1982s	your current build right now that is
1985s	something that is a feature already in
1988s	place
1989s	see look there's more over there in case
1991s	things go south
1993s	and by the looks of it things are gonna
1994s	go stop
1999s	oh missed
2018s	ouch man
2038s	that was almost my death
2041s	surprised i'm actually not dead to be
2043s	honest
2055s	are weapons damaged ah
2058s	ah you know what we need
2061s	you know what we need
2062s	let's hope it works
2065s	let's
2066s	let's hope it works
2071s	granted you wouldn't be able to do this
2073s	in the future because you're not
2074s	supposed to be able to craft in the
2076s	middle of combat
2080s	we just activated our shield oh we are
2082s	totally dead
2084s	oh goodness gravy
2086s	let's just uh let's just get some
2088s	distance and uh hope to repair some
2091s	stuff up yep good excellent
2096s	that's a little bit better
2098s	that's a little bit better oh my gosh
2100s	these guys they're so precise
2105s	oh we are we're dead we're totally dead
2109s	i might end up swapping my emp field to
2112s	uh
2113s	regenerate shields again i think that
2115s	might be our best bet on that front uh
2117s	but explosive enemies let me tell you
2119s	what they can be uh they can kind of be
2121s	nasty
2122s	they can kind of be nasty so we'll try
2124s	that again
2133s	uh we're gonna put the peacemaker on
2135s	here
2136s	now technically like right here since
2138s	we're not engaged yet i think you would
2141s	be able to do this um i did just have a
2143s	conversation with hans christian though
2145s	about how we at least i feel
2147s	maybe you guys can speak on this maybe
2149s	you can vouch for me or disagree i don't
2151s	care um but like when you go into a high
2153s	risk area i feel like straight up no
2156s	matter what you just shouldn't be
2157s	allowed to craft that's how i feel about
2159s	it but we'll see
2161s	we'll see what we end up implementing
2166s	uh but regardless we are going to do a
2167s	little bit of extra crafting right now
2170s	on the consumable front
2171s	we want to be able to uh nano repair
2177s	and we want uh let's see what else do we
2179s	want
2186s	an energy shield's probably going to be
2187s	good here too so we're just going to
2189s	pull out all the tricks
2193s	and do a little bit of that
2195s	sticky turrets are nice but uh you know
2197s	we should also probably just make
2198s	straight up nanobots too
2202s	probably
2205s	excellent all right
2208s	oh hello
2209s	you're awfully close
2214s	you know i said i was gonna change my
2215s	device and uh then i didn't do it how
2217s	dare i
2219s	we need to get that fixed
2222s	once that emp is off cooldown we are
2223s	changing it
2229s	oh you're so slow how do people like
2231s	this ship i'm just kidding i love this
2233s	ship it's great
2235s	having your own little drone is one
2238s	all right
2239s	somebody out there just got triggered
2243s	this is my baby how could you talk to
2245s	that ship like that
2249s	okay uh we are changing this to shield
2252s	surge because when our shields go down
2255s	we want to swap the battle to be in our
2257s	favor and we want our shields back
2260s	i also prefer to hit our targets my
2262s	goodness
2263s	you know let's just let the corrosion do
2265s	its work here
2267s	okay let's get our shields back there we
2269s	go now we're on the offensive for a
2271s	little bit yeah i think that's a bit
2273s	nicer
2277s	we do need to get our drones back
2278s	however
2289s	there's that debris field
2293s	there was a debris field here right
2297s	ah there it is the other side
2306s	nothing
2308s	rng got me this time all right
2313s	anything else
2318s	all right i see how it is i see how it
2320s	is oh
2322s	yes
2325s	no all right
2328s	this is fine
2331s	wow i feel like i feel like i got a bit
2334s	savage there
2356s	there we go one more down
2358s	oh man
2359s	it's gonna be a bit until i have this
2361s	boss meter filled
2365s	sometimes that's just the way it is
2377s	shields back perfect that feels really
2379s	good coming together
2389s	now one of the things about exploding
2391s	enemies that is kind of nice it's
2393s	actually um i know it doesn't show in
2395s	color like if we were to look on the map
2398s	uh it shows it's in red which means it's
2400s	a negative
2402s	but you can use explosive depth to your
2404s	benefit too because if your enemies are
2406s	all bunched up like especially like a
2407s	bunch of little drones and maybe if they
2409s	were redeemers healing upon that um you
2412s	can actually have them chain kill
2415s	other opponents
2416s	but also you have to of course be
2418s	mindful with that because they can chain
2420s	kill you if a bunch of them explode all
2422s	at once
2424s	this may actually have been how we got
2426s	got uh just a moment ago
2428s	when we were addressing this exact same
2431s	uh high risk area
2436s	you know look at those look at those
2437s	shields just deplete
2448s	my poor drones
2457s	oh that did not give me a lot of shields
2459s	they were not close enough oh that's
2461s	problems
2477s	wow
2480s	i feel like that uh shield didn't help
2482s	at all
2483s	oof
2509s	vindicators really need their drones oh
2511s	man
2512s	wow this is going to be a painful one
2514s	shot
2516s	we might go swap ships
2521s	now we are uh we are playing on uh very
2524s	hard difficulty
2526s	the you know
2527s	sort of a standard makes things more
2530s	challenging uh thing that will be
2532s	modified in the future
2534s	but uh man that's pretty this is pretty
2536s	savage right now uh explosive enemies
2538s	and vindicators not a good mix
2541s	not a good mix
2544s	but yeah
2546s	i feel like railgun and emp shield break
2548s	would work for this yeah actually seth
2550s	uh that would be a fantastic combination
2552s	i think a railgun would be uh quite
2555s	ideal
2556s	um so a scout could be
2558s	having a lot of fun in an environment
2560s	where enemies explode in fact what do
2563s	you say we go try that
2565s	we want to try that i want to try that
2568s	uh so let's load up uh from the base
2572s	go to a scout
2573s	and then
2574s	approach this exact same high risk
2577s	area but with a scout instead
2580s	yeah
2581s	when the going gets tough there it goes
2583s	ship swapping you know what oh yeah i
2585s	mean think of each ship as its own like
2587s	class in an rpg sometimes the mage is
2589s	going to be super fantastic at you know
2592s	uh some sort of combats the wizard or
2595s	the the warriors gonna be far better at
2597s	others the rogue's gonna have a nice
2599s	blend of all these other things um and
2602s	yeah for right now our our little um
2606s	our little drone boy not quite cutting
2608s	it against this particular set of
2610s	mutators uh so let's see if we have a
2613s	scout
2614s	i don't think we do
2617s	no we don't
2619s	uh so we'll go ahead and we'll take our
2621s	vindicator
2624s	over to neptune's planes we'll see if
2626s	there's a scout over there if they do
2628s	awesome
2629s	uh maybe we'll accidentally show uh new
2631s	ship parts in the process
2633s	one can hope right
2643s	but yeah so as you can see like there's
2645s	a slew of new consumables i've been
2647s	showcased um and uh they might all be
2650s	working
2651s	yet
2652s	some of them are supposed to be uh but
2655s	regardless
2656s	these new tools should give you a couple
2658s	new opportunities when it comes to your
2660s	varying events that are taking place
2663s	[Music]
2665s	what do i think about your ghost ship
2667s	theory uh
2671s	i need context namely the theory
2673s	i don't know
2683s	oh yes i need to put my sunglasses on
2685s	that uh that actually gives me uh
2688s	plus 40 evasion
2694s	that's very true all right let's go
2696s	ahead and say oh yeah there we go
2697s	there's a beautiful spirit i wonder if
2699s	we can get a tier 2 plus though we're
2701s	going to go ahead and cycle through
2702s	these i have not looked at this so guys
2705s	i do want to give you a heads up this is
2706s	work in progress
2708s	you may in fact see
2711s	you may in fact see some ships that have
2714s	some blockouts to them that are simply
2716s	not done okay um
2719s	but just know that okay so if there's
2721s	something that you see that you haven't
2722s	seen before uh you know you're welcome
2725s	but also it's not done so do expect some
2728s	changes so we got a liberator these
2730s	wings are absolutely not done let's see
2732s	we got a striker excellent a typhoon a
2736s	cyclops those wings are actually the
2738s	tier twos uh nemesis ooh
2741s	it looks cool though should we take it
2743s	cause it looks cool
2744s	a tormentor and a wasp those wings are
2747s	also not done
2749s	cyclops
2751s	harbinger a hawk
2754s	another cyclops with wings that aren't
2755s	done all right so we only have one
2757s	spirit
2760s	it's just a tier two all right we're
2762s	gonna we're gonna
2764s	we're gonna go over to prescott starbase
2767s	as well oh my goodness
2769s	we're flying all over the place i want
2771s	to see if we can get a scout um but this
2773s	is a perfect opportunity to talk a
2774s	little bit about uh some of the changes
2777s	we would like to do for the ship dealers
2779s	as well because as you can see like as
2781s	i'm going through this process alone of
2784s	trying to find the right ship
2786s	it can sometimes be a little tedious
2789s	frustrating
2790s	annoying whatever you want to call it
2793s	and we recognize that
2795s	we want to adjust that so in the future
2796s	our plans are to have
2799s	certain ship dealers potentially sell
2801s	certain ships
2803s	that could be a thing um also a couple
2806s	other unique benefits that i probably
2808s	shouldn't talk about
2810s	yet but would help you get to the ships
2812s	that you desire so that if you're
2814s	looking for something you can go to a
2815s	place and most assuredly find it
2819s	[Applause]
2820s	is something we want to do just a little
2822s	bit of quality of life improvements on
2825s	that front for ships
2827s	because you know it's a little bit of a
2828s	process especially since right now what
2830s	there's there's three ship dealers
2833s	that's it
2837s	[Music]
2844s	yeah it can be a little it can be a
2845s	little frustrating
2847s	you cycle between the three ship dealers
2849s	and like none of them are selling what
2850s	you're looking for and you're like well
2852s	dang it it sucks
2854s	add more ship dealers that's also in the
2856s	plan yeah so the initial plan um
2860s	can i share this
2862s	i can share this
2863s	travel made easy
2865s	um the initial plan was to have one ship
2868s	dealer in least
2870s	and every single system and union of
2873s	course has two because it should be you
2875s	know it's one of the it's the largest
2877s	system i believe as of right now
2880s	so it's got a lot of your opportunities
2881s	there
2883s	but uh regardless
2885s	uh that may or may not happen in the
2887s	future
2888s	we'll see
2889s	now i'm specifically looking for a tier
2892s	uh two plus this is a little too high of
2894s	a tier i can't quite show this off yet
2896s	even though this is a this is also a
2898s	blackout so those are not those are not
2899s	don wings i warned you it was gonna
2901s	happen
2904s	another sp another spirit tier three oh
2906s	those those wings are actually looking
2908s	pretty great okay um
2909s	yes
2911s	yes
2912s	yes
2913s	yes wonderful
2915s	i thought you were here uh we're gonna
2917s	go ahead and uh we have to sell our
2919s	vindicator
2925s	wait we're almost there we're like 4k
2928s	away
2932s	let's do a job
2933s	let's go get some money
2936s	let's sell stuff
2940s	we could ironically sell the signal
2942s	decoder that we don't like to buy the
2944s	ship to go against this signal decode or
2946s	to go against the high-risk area that
2947s	we'd no longer have access to
2950s	uh hmm
2952s	unfortunate
2953s	unfortunate
2954s	uh maybe let's just go hunt some outlaws
2956s	for a little bit but uh i really really
2958s	want that scout
2960s	i really want this spirit
2962s	[Music]
2965s	and also so you're aware the uh
2967s	ship viewing page
2969s	is not done either
2972s	there's more coming on that front too
2976s	all right so let's poke some of these
2977s	eyelash outs let's see what they give us
2978s	maybe we can sell something
2980s	shouldn't take too long to accrue 4k
2984s	i don't think
2986s	do an unknown signal actually that's a
2988s	really good point
2991s	yeah nano that's larger nothing
2994s	we'll take out this elite maybe we'll
2996s	get a signal decoder
3002s	look at that
3004s	credits
3005s	union signal decoder we just need 2k
3008s	more credits we are almost there already
3009s	we have another elite i wanna let's go
3028s	those jaegers should probably be enough
3032s	to go buy our scouts so without further
3034s	ado
3035s	let's just go pick it up
3039s	i'm kind of liking the ability to just
3040s	show you guys how this is working
3044s	by just accomplishing tasks here
3047s	so you can see like you know
3049s	the reality of the space of grinding
3052s	it's only as hard as you make it
3054s	honestly it's only as hard as you make
3056s	it yeah so that's definitely going to be
3057s	enough
3059s	so now we can purchase our we are 200
3063s	credits short
3069s	this is silly all right we're gonna just
3071s	sell the union signal decoder
3073s	and then we're gonna buy our ship
3075s	oh my gosh
3076s	uh so we need to
3079s	uh we're gonna buy and transfer our
3081s	current one to the home base so our
3083s	vindicator is going back home but
3085s	whenever you do that it strips all the
3087s	gear from that ship you are currently
3088s	flying and applies it to your new ship
3092s	so just like this
3094s	boom
3096s	our inventory has been properly
3098s	transferred over uh now we're gonna need
3100s	a rail gun
3102s	uh maybe we can just craft one instead
3104s	of buy one because that would be way
3106s	easier i think
3111s	look at us go all right
3114s	[Music]
3117s	actually i like that the chance steel
3119s	corrosion is going to be good on this
3120s	front so we'll take that
3123s	we'll plop that on
3125s	[Music]
3134s	i feel like we should probably use
3138s	where is the synchro pulses as a backup
3140s	so we have the royal gun and the syncro
3142s	pulse uh what's our passive goodness
3144s	can't be detected by mines during shadow
3146s	strike uh okay 25 reduced enemy uh
3149s	detection range i i do enjoy that okay
3152s	uh let's also get another missile oh
3154s	that's the wrong button whoops that's my
3156s	cheats
3158s	uh let's get uh a secondary weapon that
3161s	we need
3163s	i'm gonna go with some destabilizer
3165s	missiles so we can maximize that
3167s	delicious damage
3169s	[Music]
3175s	let's try again
3177s	let's try again
3181s	[Music]
3185s	i like this one a lot we will go with
3187s	that
3188s	all right
3190s	[Music]
3194s	how long does it take for the ship
3195s	dealer pool to refresh it's a great
3197s	question
3199s	trying to remember uh what the very
3202s	specific number of minutes was of
3204s	in-game time that has to pass
3209s	i think i asked han christian uh hans
3211s	christian this one time you told me um i
3214s	think it's going to be adjusted it's
3215s	what it's going to be
3217s	but i think right now it's somewhere
3218s	around 60 minutes like it takes a while
3222s	it takes a while
3225s	i'm gonna i'm gonna find this
3229s	[Music]
3235s	because i think this is a good one to
3237s	know
3238s	right now
3252s	[Music]
3254s	okay so i was kind of wrong so this is
3257s	what happens so
3258s	um
3260s	the current values
3262s	one ship after seven minutes will cycle
3265s	half of the ships after 14 minutes
3268s	75 of the ships after 28 minutes and all
3272s	of the ships after 56 minutes so i was
3275s	uh
3276s	sort of close so all of them do cycle
3278s	over in about an hour you know the 60
3280s	minutes work
3282s	but yeah one ship will transfer after
3283s	seven minutes now uh sometimes that can
3287s	be insanely annoying because you're like
3289s	you got your eye on a certain ship
3290s	you're like oh man i totally want this
3292s	ship and then you fly out 10 minutes
3294s	later you come back i'm gonna buy it and
3296s	it's the one that's cycled and you want
3298s	to punch someone at rockfish games who
3301s	designed this who in their right mind
3304s	would go this direction that's
3305s	nonsensical you're destroying my
3307s	immersion and uh desire to participate
3311s	whatever i don't know what's your excuse
3313s	um
3314s	we don't want that to happen either
3318s	we don't we don't want that
3321s	to happen either so um hopefully you're
3323s	picking up from that front that there's
3325s	probably going to be a unique change in
3327s	the future to where if you like a
3329s	particular ship that there may or may
3331s	not be a way uh to do something about
3334s	that i didn't say a word
3337s	andy
3340s	uh you know just uh i just just wanted
3342s	to toss that out there you know
3345s	he's pointing it out
3347s	all right
3348s	let's take our little scout oh i like
3350s	this i like this guy
3356s	oh
3358s	oh oh gosh i know that we've heard this
3361s	one before
3363s	oh hang on a second let's just let's
3365s	listen to that beautiful oh my goodness
3368s	are you ready for this let's listen to
3369s	that
3377s	oh yeah that
3379s	that is satisfying all right okay all
3382s	right
3384s	anyway
3387s	so now
3390s	let's go punch some faces in the kite
3392s	nebula yeah
3395s	i also check a couple other things
3397s	expertise
3399s	we're actually going to dump our
3400s	resistance and we're going to go to
3401s	precision as much as we can um
3406s	[Music]
3408s	this is not going to be as beneficial as
3410s	other tools in our repertoire so we want
3412s	to do
3413s	i think we want to do corrosion injector
3416s	man
3417s	[Music]
3420s	we could go magnetic repulsor to keep
3423s	foes at range actually i kind of like
3425s	that idea
3426s	so what we're going to do is we're going
3427s	to reset this oh we need memory
3429s	recalibrators hang on a second
3431s	look at us doing all these things that
3433s	were not uh possible to do before for
3435s	like a really long time
3438s	one two
3440s	three
3441s	four
3443s	jeez i thought we were gonna have it to
3444s	where when you select it you can select
3446s	multiples if you want uh regardless all
3449s	right
3449s	um all right so we are going to remove
3452s	the benefits of the corrosion injector
3456s	reset like so
3458s	then we are going to swap in uh the
3461s	magnetic repulsor and we're going to
3463s	upgrade this all the way
3469s	all right
3470s	excellent and i
3473s	think pushing targets to drop energy
3475s	orbs is going to be our best bet on this
3478s	front
3480s	that way when they are getting too close
3482s	we push them away we pick up the energy
3485s	and zip out of there
3487s	also not sure about kunai we don't want
3489s	to pull people in so we're going to add
3491s	uh additional range because you know
3492s	we're this is a ranged build right
3495s	so additional range
3497s	um
3502s	[Music]
3504s	this is gonna be kind of our get out of
3505s	jail
3506s	free card so we're gonna keep that on
3508s	restoring shields so we'll pop that and
3510s	then just boost out of there yeah i'm
3512s	i'm liking this setup i think this is a
3514s	pretty good setup we got this peacemaker
3516s	and not not too keen about this
3521s	damage booster for the maximum uh
3524s	absurdities
3526s	[Music]
3528s	well i have to keep that i think this is
3529s	this will be okay this will be okay for
3531s	now lots of adjustments
3533s	as you can see just uh just to tweak and
3535s	modify i i want to do some crazy damage
3537s	here
3539s	but i think this will end up working uh
3541s	now guys i am gonna have to take a break
3542s	here in just a moment uh so we'll have
3545s	we'll try this uh one time with our
3547s	build
3549s	we'll see how things go against this
3552s	particular uh high risk area as the
3554s	scout
3556s	with the range built hopefully take out
3559s	all these exploders
3562s	[Music]
3564s	but yeah then we'll take a quick break
3569s	haven't been happier to be a railgun
3571s	mane what a way to save time
3574s	yeah i know railgun sound effects i
3576s	think gabriel has done a pretty
3577s	impressive job
3579s	and i there there are a few more sound
3581s	effects that are in fact in the game i
3583s	just don't have i don't have a list uh
3585s	hasn't been a priority to gather i'm so
3587s	sorry guys uh just has not been a
3589s	priority um there's been so many other
3591s	moving parts
3593s	oh my gosh but i think that you guys are
3595s	gonna are gonna really love uh what
3597s	drake has to offer
3600s	all right so we're gonna do one attempt
3604s	then we're gonna go on a quick break
3613s	[Music]
3619s	a dmz wide ship dealer bulletin board in
3622s	regards to like being able to find your
3624s	ships and stuff dude uh i love that i
3627s	love that idea it sounds uh kind of more
3630s	for like a simulation based game uh but
3633s	maybe there's something there that our
3635s	team can recognize and be like hey you
3636s	know what maybe there's something there
3638s	we can do
3639s	so that's fun
3642s	uh any new tracks by dr gabriel that i
3644s	can share no not at this time
3646s	not
3647s	at
3648s	this
3649s	time
3650s	no i cannot
3652s	nope
3654s	all right let's uh let oh my gosh
3655s	they're already this close
3657s	what in the world
3659s	hang on a second
3662s	[Music]
3672s	missed
3673s	he's getting too close
3682s	we're not close enough come on come on i
3684s	increased your range there we go all
3686s	right
3696s	there we go nice nice wonderful distance
3699s	from our foes
3701s	now we just you know have to hit our
3703s	target
3706s	man they're so fast
3713s	give me that sweet energy
3719s	thanks hive
3721s	yeah this is actually this will work
3723s	this will work
3725s	this is a pretty satisfying build
3731s	actually wait let's uh
3735s	wait
3736s	the missile missed
3737s	get back over there boy what are you
3739s	doing
3741s	i will just do that
3768s	should be using a controller because
3769s	that has a little bit more auto aim oh
3770s	man his shields came back that's mean no
3773s	no drop the shields
3778s	all right hang on a second
3787s	man redeemers in their shields
3795s	i mean the good news is that i'm
3796s	incredibly evasive so they're like
3797s	they're not getting a lot of shots on me
3800s	this is gonna take a little bit of time
3801s	though
3803s	it's gonna take a little time and i have
3804s	to use the restroom
3808s	oh boy
3809s	did we plan this out accordingly i don't
3811s	know
3823s	before he explodes get some distance
3825s	good good looks like i've got company
3833s	where are my energy hordes at
3841s	man i don't know about you guys but like
3843s	flying the sky right now i'm i'm getting
3845s	some aerospace one vibes honestly
3848s	feels pretty good oh my gosh
3853s	that was painful
3858s	oh there we go
3860s	oh gosh we gotta get out of here
3874s	ah
3876s	get rid of your shield
3878s	good
3888s	all right shields are down
3890s	nice
3899s	that's what we like to see
3905s	too many need shields good good yeah
3908s	it's coming together all right all right
3920s	nice
3926s	would help if my aim was a little bit
3928s	better
3956s	oh come on
3971s	oh
3991s	oh
3994s	i really wouldn't need that shadow
3995s	strike hasn't even been fully charged
3997s	yet
4000s	all right let's see if we can maybe get
4002s	it oh there it there it is asking you
4004s	shot received
4007s	all right where's a where's a tricky one
4016s	come on
4028s	a little unfortunate but it was a nice
4029s	reprieve from all that combat that's for
4031s	sure
4033s	gets our shield backs
4046s	good good
4048s	this is absolutely going better than our
4050s	attempt with the um
4052s	with our poor little vindicator
4055s	the drones just didn't really stand a
4056s	chance from all the exploding foes
4060s	and i say that and i really got to keep
4062s	my distance
4063s	otherwise uh we're gonna have a really
4065s	short trip into this
4081s	hold still
4083s	much better
4091s	all right okay
4098s	it also doesn't help that each one of
4099s	these guys keeps getting buffed up every
4101s	time i get a kill uh that's another one
4103s	of the mutators the strength and death
4112s	there we
4117s	go hope so
4133s	really chasing them down oh my gosh you
4135s	can tell that my general play style is
4137s	getting up close and personal i'm
4139s	supposed to be hanging out at like this
4141s	full-blown range and every time i'm just
4143s	like ah i just want to i just want to
4145s	get all up close and blast them
4153s	these guys are too far
4158s	[Music]
4161s	and their shields keep coming back too
4162s	that doesn't help
4166s	all right
4170s	[Music]
4183s	goodness gravy
4184s	maybe what i need to do is swap to an
4186s	annihilator virus
4194s	um
4196s	yeah
4197s	this would be much better
4200s	unfortunately that does mean we need to
4202s	pull
4203s	more of our stuff from something else
4205s	actually energize boost no we'll die
4208s	from the explosion so that would be
4209s	terrible uh
4211s	good thing that we haven't done this yet
4213s	otherwise this this stream would be a
4215s	pretty uh interesting huh
4218s	let's see where's my uh
4222s	what's it called thought i need
4226s	memory recalibrator that's it let's get
4228s	four more
4234s	man
4236s	imagine being prepared
4238s	for the combat sequence that you're
4239s	about to go into right
4241s	uh let's see let's take it off of
4245s	i really want to keep it on the fusion
4246s	hook so we'll take it out from let's do
4249s	the nano transmitter
4251s	we'll take it off this
4254s	and that way we can boost the
4255s	annihilator virus as far forward as
4257s	possible
4264s	and we're just going to try and maximize
4266s	damage on this
4269s	as much as we possibly can
4277s	oh yeah
4278s	that seems to be a heck of a lot more
4281s	and you know what this is also a really
4282s	good time to mention we actually nerfed
4286s	uh
4288s	we actually nerfed the annihilator virus
4291s	um not even joking that was one of our
4293s	device changes recently
4295s	and i don't think this is live yet this
4297s	is something that we are doing
4298s	internally we're testing it we feel the
4300s	annihilator virus is actually just
4302s	really stinking good
4313s	it looks like we're promised again it is
4316s	so powerful guys
4318s	i mean look at that two uses of it and
4320s	we've cleared
4321s	we've cleared the conditions for the
4323s	boss to spawn
4326s	now granted we we do have a bit in
4328s	utility all right there we have a bit
4329s	going on there which is maximizing that
4332s	front but still
4337s	it's a second nerf uh yeah like
4340s	there's been a couple of of uh devices
4343s	that have received several nerfs
4346s	through the course of the
4348s	lifespan agrispace 2 goodness gravy i
4350s	love that sound so much let's try ann
4356s	get a little bit of a combination thing
4358s	going on here
4368s	i know i need to be at more range i know
4369s	somebody's probably thinking it
4375s	well we'll kind of do this to stay at a
4377s	decent range i don't he hasn't fired at
4379s	us yet
4382s	easy win
4385s	oh yeah the infection limit was added
4388s	because that was just
4389s	yeah that one was way too powerful
4400s	yeah we did have to change that that's
4402s	for sure
4408s	all right
4409s	we completed it
4411s	a little bit cheesier than i uh
4414s	had imagined it to be but you know what
4415s	we'll take it a win's a win right
4418s	now
4419s	seriously though
4420s	keep in mind uh that whenever we are you
4423s	know
4424s	evaluating the nature of the game space
4427s	and where we want to move forward with
4428s	it you know we're creating these tools
4430s	that give you more flexibility for
4433s	preparedness and also some that allow
4435s	you to like change up your formula a
4438s	little bit more on the fly so like our
4439s	armor here for example we can swap
4441s	plating we still have the same valve
4443s	like a percentage of armor but we have
4445s	new benefits based on what we're
4446s	utilizing right
4448s	so little things like that we want there
4450s	to be a convenience factor for being in
4453s	the fray but we also want there to be
4455s	incentives for preparing before you
4457s	engage and so even though i was
4460s	absolutely crafting in the middle of
4462s	that combat and uh like it helped me out
4466s	on that front that is not the way that
4468s	it's really intended to do i did that
4470s	mainly because i didn't want to die
4471s	again during the live stream
4472s	um but uh in short there will be a lock
4477s	that doesn't allow you to do any sort of
4479s	crafting whatsoever
4481s	once you enter combat now that doesn't
4483s	mean you can't craft a bunch of
4485s	different consumables and then during
4487s	the middle of combat you hot swap them
4489s	in just remember you have that 20 second
4491s	timer right
4492s	so you'll still have ramifications for
4495s	it on some level but you could have a
4498s	large amount of preparedness within a
4500s	decent sized cargo
4503s	cargo space is actually relevant here
4506s	it is actually relevant here so just
4508s	keep that in mind
4511s	now
4511s	i have to go use the bathroom
4514s	so um i'm gonna i'm gonna take a quick
4517s	break
4518s	oh i need to leave here to save
4520s	it's gravy oh my gosh
4529s	it's nuts okay uh let's go back to
4532s	uh the ancients no no not an ancient
4534s	little free bioplant
4537s	get our jam tunes on
4549s	have you ever added uh considered adding
4551s	a simple ui button to the ship dealers
4553s	that refreshes their inventory of ships
4554s	yeah we have considered that
4556s	yeah no we have a solution for ship
4559s	dealer stuff you guys don't need to come
4561s	up with ideas and be like oh have you
4562s	considered this have you considered that
4564s	no we got it we we it's just got to be
4566s	implemented it's just got to be
4567s	implemented i'm going to go park at the
4569s	bree bile plant because i feel like it's
4572s	appropriate for having to use the
4573s	bathroom
4578s	oh my humor is dumb sometimes anyway
4583s	all right guys
4586s	goodness gravy i'm gonna save
4591s	and uh we're just gonna we're gonna kill
4593s	the game so we can go to the wait screen
4594s	uh and i'll load it back up when i'm
4595s	back so uh like five minutes uh if that
4598s	i'll see you guys in just a moment
4629s	[Music]
4648s	[Music]
4674s	i was rather fast
4679s	i guess you could say that i'm eager to
4681s	be back
4683s	uh guys there i got a secret
4688s	i got a secret i hope you're all back
4699s	[Applause]
4731s	all right we're back ladies and
4733s	gentlemen welcome welcome for that quick
4735s	little intermission hope uh hope you're
4737s	all well and fine and dandy we're gonna
4738s	just pull up our game
4740s	right back up
4745s	excellent
4746s	oh
4749s	feels good
4757s	another time
4759s	uh yeah sure we could we could talk
4760s	about like the crafting some more uh
4762s	about the consumables and stuff is that
4764s	what you're talking about yeah we
4765s	covered a number of things already
4766s	earlier in the stream um we can kind of
4769s	review some of it
4771s	so we have the uh you know
4774s	all the craftables are now um you know
4777s	plugged in here
4778s	and that we've got the we've got some of
4780s	these details
4783s	no the trailer again
4784s	come on the joke was that
4788s	yes okay okay i'll show the trailer
4790s	again
4791s	in a little bit oh my goodness but i
4793s	hope you guys are excited i mean we've
4795s	we've been very hard at work you could
4796s	probably tell from even that short
4798s	snippet of an experience there was a
4800s	mere 29 seconds that you just
4803s	experienced uh at how hard at work we
4806s	are on some new stuff that you will be
4808s	engaged with um and just like i said in
4811s	the discord some of the content is
4812s	rather chilling
4814s	ah
4815s	cause puns are fun
4817s	so uh yeah
4820s	yeah absolutely so don't worry we will
4822s	we will absolutely uh dive into the
4824s	trailer uh at least one more time
4826s	probably a couple because i love you
4827s	guys
4828s	that's just that's just what i do um but
4831s	there are a couple of other things that
4832s	i wanted to talk about uh as well
4835s	so uh one of those things
4839s	uh
4857s	so okay so balancing on device fronts we
4860s	had
4862s	a number of
4864s	uh
4865s	little tweaks that we made across the
4867s	board
4868s	uh some of these i believe are
4870s	implemented and some might not be um so
4873s	we'll just i'll just point to them and
4875s	talk about them
4878s	so for the uh
4880s	quantum tether oh no that's the alt
4882s	isn't it
4886s	where are we talking about the quantum
4887s	entangler uh the duration was reduced
4891s	okay so i think that is this i think
4892s	that is correct on this one uh the
4894s	duration of this was reduced any damage
4896s	done to the user will also be applied to
4897s	the target
4898s	um
4899s	i believe it was originally 20 seconds i
4902s	i say that and i'm looking straight at
4903s	it it was originally 20 seconds it was
4905s	reduced to 16. i can't quite see it
4907s	because i haven't leveled it all the way
4908s	up it's 14 at default and then when you
4910s	level it up i believe it gets to 16
4912s	seconds now
4914s	um we ended up buffing i think actually
4917s	we've shown this uh but the prime zapper
4919s	and equalizer were more separated coil
4921s	guns now uh so
4923s	uh they're more distinct from one
4925s	another they're not super similar like
4926s	they were they were so similar except
4928s	from like some very minor numbers uh and
4931s	we decided to change that
4933s	so they're more unique from one another
4934s	then we also increased the corrosion
4937s	injector
4938s	uh damage so that's a single target
4941s	strike uh the damage has gone up
4945s	and this is probably what i actually
4946s	should have used in that last combat
4948s	because uh you can chain it together
4951s	like if the opponent dies from this then
4953s	you can use it again using one of the
4955s	modes that it has it's kind of a nice
4957s	combination i feel like so you're always
4959s	basically affecting targeting you down
4961s	one opponent
4963s	um and then we also had
4964s	the emp generator where are you at where
4967s	are you oh at the very top um the shield
4970s	surge mode uh the recharge amount from
4973s	this was actually increased
4975s	as well
4976s	because it wasn't getting uh wasn't
4978s	getting a lot of use both from you guys
4980s	out there we watch your streams we
4982s	see what you're up to we see your
4983s	screenshots and your builds and stuff
4985s	like that and the information you share
4987s	with us thank you for that by the way
4988s	you help us
4990s	balance this whole product out a little
4992s	bit further to make meaningful decisions
4994s	that's a good thing uh and so yeah
4995s	shield surge received a buff on that
4997s	front
5000s	and uh it's that's been nice that's been
5002s	nice
5003s	so um then i also have a number of other
5005s	things that i just want to kind of talk
5008s	about with you all because they're up
5010s	and coming cool things
5012s	there's up and coming cool things and um
5016s	you know we're here to have a
5017s	conversation
5019s	so uh a couple of these things you guys
5022s	already know from our descriptions for
5024s	the uh summer update right
5026s	you already know um some of those things
5029s	for example let me just pull up the
5031s	frequently asked questions right now you
5033s	know that there's gonna be a new system
5034s	drake duh you know there's gonna be new
5036s	enemy factions we've shown the concept
5038s	art for the phantom retaliators the
5040s	coalition
5041s	and the zurillia
5044s	we have also talked about
5046s	new activities many missions and
5048s	challenges to appear i've shown you
5050s	various challenges in fact i can kind of
5052s	show that again here we are
5055s	so like we have outlaw hunt two advanced
5056s	combat there's one missing from the
5058s	screen uh basically one of these is not
5060s	gonna be you have to destroy an enemy
5062s	with three debuffs on it um
5065s	then you know we've got uh daredevil
5068s	that's been added in here too it's
5069s	completing high risk areas in certain
5071s	ways descriptions are still going to be
5073s	updated you don't care about that but
5074s	regardless that's all going on this
5076s	locked one is probably a drake explorer
5079s	is my guess
5081s	but there's also more beyond just this
5084s	we're working hard on those we want to
5085s	make some interesting options and for
5087s	anybody who's missed that front just as
5089s	a reminder we want
5091s	these challenges to serve as a slight
5094s	boon if you go out and do them you don't
5096s	have to
5098s	you don't have to complete them but if
5099s	you do you gain some inherent benefit
5102s	for the rest of the game so in outlaw
5105s	hunt one it makes it to where uh the you
5108s	get a 10 discount on all equipment items
5110s	at the flying duchess for example right
5113s	just really really simple bonus
5116s	um a la hunt 2 outlaw ravagers have a
5118s	greatly increased chance to drop higher
5120s	grade items so that's prototype and
5121s	star-forged so ravagers are a little bit
5124s	more rare of an enemy when you find them
5126s	and you've got outlaw hunt 2 completed
5129s	they're going to be more opportunistic
5131s	regarding items
5133s	advanced combat first entering a
5135s	location gain 50 increased damage for 10
5137s	seconds etc etc etc so if you go out of
5140s	your way to accomplish these tasks some
5142s	of which aren't terribly hard to do
5144s	but progressively get harder the more
5146s	you unlock
5147s	uh you're gonna get some sort of you
5149s	know
5150s	benefit cool
5152s	the explorers are mostly gonna just be
5154s	you know you can travel through that
5156s	area faster that's kind of what we we
5158s	kind of like that design so we're
5159s	probably gonna stick to that so okay
5162s	um otherwise we got a couple other
5164s	little uh things to talk about still
5167s	just a lot of you know features a lot of
5169s	like tweaks that we've noticed that
5171s	needed to be revisited
5174s	um and also i i like this color scheme i
5178s	kind of want to choose that again
5181s	we're just gonna apply oops wrong one
5184s	there we go
5187s	just look at my scout in the hangar
5188s	while we're talking um so you guys also
5191s	know that from the frequently asked
5193s	questions that there's gonna be increase
5195s	in the level player
5197s	the player level cap is going to be
5199s	raised uh crafting improvements and
5201s	additions we've been showing those off
5202s	it's been really nice higher scary
5204s	mutators we've been showing those off
5205s	there's going to be a new companion
5208s	too right so you guys uh if you didn't
5211s	know that there's going to be another
5212s	person that you meet who's going to need
5214s	to
5215s	find a space to live or something along
5217s	those lines that helps you out with his
5220s	uh or her
5222s	benefits or it's it
5226s	who knows
5228s	alien species man let me tell you what
5230s	um
5232s	but uh yeah
5233s	uh in addition to that i keep saying in
5235s	addition to there's a lot of stuff here
5236s	there's a lot of stuff here but just
5237s	kind of covering a couple other things
5239s	little tweaks and adjustments like
5241s	fixing how these challenges come
5242s	together um spatial biplas we already
5245s	talked about that like on the map
5247s	whenever you're looking at the spatial
5248s	bypass
5249s	locations
5250s	uh for here we go fast travel when
5253s	you're all the way zoomed out we wanted
5254s	to fix that so now you can actually see
5256s	them
5260s	consumable rarities
5263s	i feel like that's pretty well
5265s	understood at this point
5268s	um
5269s	there's gonna be sound effects for
5272s	these newly added consumables too so
5274s	each one should have like a special sort
5276s	of jingle or sound or tune uh with maybe
5279s	a visual effect to boot so you have a
5282s	strong understanding of what's just
5283s	happened
5285s	and obviously these graphics will be
5287s	updated as well uh i'm really just kind
5290s	of run through a list here because
5291s	there's there's a bit of stuff and i
5292s	just want you guys to be aware of this
5293s	so you kind of can temper those
5295s	expectations out there
5297s	uh we also have new sound effects of
5299s	course for secondaries
5301s	that railgun oh my gosh
5303s	i really i really do enjoy that really
5305s	good sound
5306s	um we also created shortcuts uh shortcut
5309s	buttons to just get straight to certain
5312s	menus
5313s	and i don't know which ones go to which
5315s	ones and there are certain menus that i
5317s	can't show you so i'm scared to push
5318s	them but basically for keyboard users
5320s	you can assign those uh shoot maybe
5322s	they're maybe they're in the
5326s	in the uh input options uh customize
5329s	control
5331s	let's see if i can find them
5332s	hopefully yes no
5335s	maybe oh yeah so here we go so the space
5338s	and menus all this has been getting
5339s	updated
5341s	so
5341s	crafting data inventory map missions
5343s	perkship
5346s	push of a button you can assign those
5348s	buttons for ease of navigation for all
5350s	of your pc gaming needs from the con the
5353s	keyboard
5356s	i think that's kind of been a popular
5358s	request too like you all just want
5360s	unlimited key bindings and you know what
5363s	i'm not gonna deny that i don't want
5365s	that
5366s	uh uh so
5371s	did i say that correctly
5373s	whatever i i want that too i think that
5375s	would be nice so there you go we're also
5377s	jumping in on that front
5379s	um we've got a couple new indicators for
5381s	devices uh that are still getting
5383s	plugged in
5384s	as well as uh being able to craft the
5387s	missing components for consumables as
5389s	well of course
5390s	uh to track and craft those uh and then
5394s	yeah a couple a couple other like
5396s	optimization changes so i kind of been
5398s	going back and forth through the
5399s	crafting tab a bit and i don't know how
5401s	many of you guys have experienced it in
5402s	game but when you pull up the crafting
5403s	tab sometimes it chugs
5406s	sometimes it seriously chugs in the
5409s	current version that's live um and we've
5412s	updated that
5413s	we've updated that so basically the the
5416s	caching system uh has been adjusted to
5419s	where you know as i'm going back and
5420s	forth through these tabs like look at
5422s	that it's just it's
5423s	it's there it's not having to wait
5425s	around
5426s	so little little things like that but
5428s	there's a lot more than that because
5430s	obviously you saw that trailer you saw
5433s	that trailer you know that there's more
5434s	stuff coming there's uh you know some
5436s	type of
5437s	freeze effect
5440s	there's new new
5441s	new things
5443s	oh my gosh there's
5445s	there's more
5446s	there's more to find out about
5450s	uh and we will we will in time
5453s	we will in time
5455s	so uh but those those all the big things
5458s	i just listed those are the big things
5460s	that i think um have either been from
5462s	community requests that we just haven't
5464s	uh communicated yet to you fully um but
5468s	just we feel
5470s	our necessary improvements uh to the
5472s	game you know regarding the balance the
5474s	features
5475s	we are listening to a lot of what you
5476s	have to say and it's so pleasant to jump
5480s	into the forums and like just
5482s	experience what you guys are
5485s	you know feeling
5487s	in order to come down there come down
5489s	there where are you going
5490s	where you are where's that turret
5493s	and just know that we are either going
5495s	in the right direction for what you guys
5496s	want or uh we're just like straight on
5499s	the same sentence of the same paragraph
5502s	of the same page um so there's a lot of
5504s	satisfaction there um things are coming
5507s	together really really well and it's a
5510s	big thanks to you guys out there for a
5512s	lot of your feedback a lot of your
5513s	support your suggestions uh keep it
5515s	coming
5516s	also do keep in mind you know i say that
5518s	with a bit of a grain of salt because
5521s	the game should be releasing in you know
5523s	uh close-ish to half a year at this
5526s	point
5527s	happy here so if you have like this huge
5530s	feature idea change to like the
5532s	foundation of everspace too i'm just
5534s	straight up telling you it ain't gonna
5536s	happen like be mindful of that uh the
5539s	big thing's gonna be kind of like your
5541s	play testing if you will okay calm down
5544s	there um
5545s	when you are playing the game and you
5547s	experience things that just need a
5549s	little bit of tweaks or balance or
5550s	adjustments or stuff like that and you
5552s	think that you have an idea that could
5553s	curb that those are the types of things
5555s	that we'd love to hear from you about so
5557s	again keep it coming you guys seriously
5558s	are awesome and uh everybody at rockford
5561s	games thanks you for your dedication to
5563s	the cause
5564s	to express these thoughts so we can
5567s	truly make everspace 2 the best it can
5569s	possibly be it's really awesome
5571s	really awesome
5573s	okay enough about all this rambling we
5576s	talked a lot now it's time to get back
5578s	to the game
5580s	yeah yeah
5582s	that's what we're gonna do
5584s	so do we have
5587s	another signal we don't i'm just going
5588s	to dismantle this and this
5591s	put our stickies
5592s	who want our stickies
5595s	and we'll keep flying our scout around i
5597s	like this guy it's fun
5600s	oh hello
5614s	oh new more range
5621s	oh yeah alec
5625s	what a buddy now where was that auto
5628s	firing
5629s	goodness
5646s	take care alec
5648s	thanks for your help
5651s	what a punk
5653s	there we go
5657s	it's a nice little scenic opportunity of
5659s	explosions in front of the sun every day
5662s	neat all right
5664s	oh wait goodies don't forget the goodies
5678s	[Music]
5685s	get around to his backside
5688s	there we go
5691s	oh a cloak field generator that feels
5693s	appropriate for the scout
5696s	and a coil gun
5699s	i think this sound got adjusted didn't
5701s	it
5704s	yeah i think you've heard that one
5705s	though
5708s	but just in case you have it
5711s	because i love letting you guys listen
5712s	to all the little nuances and
5713s	adjustments and tweaks and additions
5723s	there you go
5725s	cool
5726s	putting our railgun back on and getting
5728s	our music back up
5733s	excellent
5753s	okay we need to go down here
5755s	we need to warp
5758s	there we go
5769s	so we can kind of go wherever we want
5771s	except not drake
5772s	come on guys
5775s	um but
5777s	man those redeemers they're seriously
5779s	punks let's go to zarkov for a little
5780s	bit that's always fun
5783s	let's go to zarkov
5792s	is everspace 2 staying on game pass
5795s	after 1.0 just wondering um yes
5801s	special bypass tech for the win
5803s	i am awaiting the next impending
5805s	malfunction so i can finally say
5808s	i told you so i'm trying to
5810s	i'm legitimately trying to uh recall a
5813s	game that like through an early access
5815s	period was on game pass and then at
5817s	launch it was removed and i'm i'm not
5820s	thinking of any
5822s	[Music]
5824s	um if that's actually a thing like if
5826s	games get removed off of game pass like
5828s	at release uh just know that is not the
5831s	plan
5832s	for everspace too
5838s	ancient's coming at me
5840s	you have the option to gain distance i'm
5842s	gonna collect all this stuff over here
5843s	because i like collecting things and
5845s	then we are going to uh
5848s	peruse some locations i think
5852s	don't hit
5853s	that there we go much better
5860s	wonderful
5861s	all right
5862s	ah elites
5865s	we do want to take out some elites
5866s	because we want to find a signal decoder
5878s	ocar prime all right we'll take it
5883s	this seems kind of dangerous
5888s	all right cool
5898s	see if he gives us the goods why am i
5900s	doing that i need to just snipe him
5905s	that corrosion is going to do the job
5907s	for me look at that
5911s	all right
5913s	well no more elites here so we're gonna
5914s	go look around a little bit more
5917s	last try oh shoot am i missing a
5919s	question my apologies yeah there was a
5921s	lot that i was talking about so anybody
5922s	if i if you asked a question and i
5924s	missed it uh it's not because i don't
5926s	love you it's not because i'm ignoring
5928s	you it's actually because i was just
5931s	talking about a lot of stuff so
5933s	if
5934s	if you would like to softly ask the
5936s	question again that's totally fine so uh
5938s	tetzen asks
5940s	early access was delayed to give
5942s	cyberpunk 2077's arrival a wide berth
5944s	might bethesda's starfield new release
5946s	date first half of 2023 i think affects
5948s	the 1.0 release date we're not really
5950s	concerned um i mean uh like starfield
5954s	yeah it looks great don't get us wrong
5955s	like it's it's wonderful and fantastic
5958s	and sci-fi enthusiasts are gonna love it
5959s	uh but it's a different game
5961s	these are these are two different games
5963s	um and you know if people really want
5966s	that more like um
5968s	no man's skyrim you know go for it
5970s	that's great that's not an insult
5973s	i'm using that as a compliment by the
5975s	way i think bethesda does really good
5976s	work on that front
5978s	more power to him awesome but their game
5981s	our game again not the same so
5983s	yeah we're not worried about it we're
5985s	not worried about it no we've we've
5986s	adjusted our deadlines in the past
5989s	accordingly to our development cycle and
5991s	maybe a little bit for marketing
5993s	purposes but uh
5994s	i don't think that's gonna happen again
5998s	i don't think so
6008s	why can't we go to drake uh because
6010s	right now they're just uh
6016s	because
6018s	because i'd be spoiling everything
6022s	was that not clear
6026s	oh goodness all right
6041s	um
6043s	i do like this side i think it's pretty
6045s	but let's go to
6050s	let's go to the uh outlaw stronghold
6054s	maybe we can find that little drone
6056s	carrier the little drone guy
6065s	distress call
6066s	we could use some monies
6070s	uh michael also responded to the
6072s	question directly i want to read this
6073s	out loud um sorry about the delay of
6076s	this but i just want to read it so
6078s	michael specifically says we're pretty
6079s	confident we'll hit the 1.0 release
6081s	before any other major space game that
6083s	is currently in development so
6089s	just uh just a little bit more infos for
6091s	you
6106s	look at me getting all up close and
6108s	personal in this combat ooh demolisher
6110s	these guys like to stay arranged
6112s	and i am happy to oblige
6116s	probably should get the other guys off
6118s	of me for stuff
6129s	uh where is that uh where's that bomber
6133s	destroyer
6135s	destroyer
6137s	ah demolisher
6139s	words are important
6146s	demolish or demolish
6156s	we ran out of juice
6157s	oh you know something else that we fixed
6160s	i should have highlighted it there shoot
6162s	um so something else that we actually
6163s	fixed
6165s	i think it was marco
6166s	who uh figured out a way to make it to
6169s	where whenever you're cloaked in the
6170s	scout or you know uh in any ship
6175s	now whenever you are cloaked and you
6178s	fire
6178s	what it does is it gives away your
6180s	position but
6182s	the opponents do not lock on to you
6185s	so enemies will start firing at the
6187s	point of which you fired from
6191s	but their shots won't be locked so if
6193s	you stay in the same area as you're
6195s	shooting from cloak you'll get hit
6198s	but if you shoot and then you keep
6199s	moving around and you're still cloaked
6200s	you can actually shoot again
6202s	uh like without being like targeted
6205s	throughout that process
6208s	it's just a cool little
6210s	little adjustment that he made on that
6211s	front which i think is nice
6216s	thanks a lot you're welcome
6219s	let's go see if we can find anything in
6221s	this uh junk keep over here
6225s	2023 is looking to be an interesting
6227s	year for space games yes
6229s	i know one in particular that i'm
6230s	excited about
6239s	all right um let's answer a couple more
6241s	questions since i don't want you guys to
6243s	think that i am avoiding them because
6245s	i'm not
6248s	so we have
6250s	will with consumables being craftable
6251s	now can you dismantle them for resources
6253s	no that is not something we wanted to do
6256s	no
6257s	we want craftables to basically um be
6261s	crafted if you need them but otherwise
6264s	you destroy them if you take them apart
6266s	if we wanted to get into some sort of
6268s	techie orbit thing maybe it's like you
6270s	know you put it together and then like
6271s	taking it apart it's just it's too
6273s	it's too temperamental it's it's
6275s	whatever uh and it just busts upon that
6278s	uh it's gamification through and through
6280s	so you shouldn't be going willy-nilly
6282s	with crafting and then you know all that
6285s	type of stuff but you know it adds a
6287s	level of preparedness
6289s	and remember when you're doing uh
6291s	consumables they usually require
6293s	components as well
6295s	and because of that component
6296s	requirement uh you know some of these
6299s	components are a little bit more hotly
6300s	contested to find
6303s	uh you know like through the course of
6305s	this stream shoot i how many times did i
6308s	uh create the freaking memory
6310s	recalibrators
6311s	i think i've made eight of them
6314s	and we're low on plasma now so you'll
6316s	want to be mindful of like what you're
6318s	crafting and why um and yeah on that
6321s	front specifically when it comes to
6325s	consumables you cannot scrap them so
6327s	great question
6329s	great question and this is working as
6330s	intended we don't want them to be uh
6332s	dismantled
6334s	uh let's see what else
6336s	mouse and keyboard has no aim assist at
6338s	all right i play everspace 2 with xbox
6339s	controller i believe that is correct i'd
6342s	have to double check with andy but the
6343s	last time i spoke with him i believe the
6345s	mouse does not have any aim assist
6347s	whatsoever uh granted i could swap over
6349s	to control or like write the heck now
6351s	just like that um and suddenly get aim
6354s	assist maybe i should have did that in
6355s	my scout
6357s	regardless
6359s	yes that's how that works
6361s	uh weapon sounds are these for higher
6362s	levels only
6364s	i like that question a lot uh in short
6366s	weapon sounds
6368s	like
6369s	weapon colors can be completely random
6371s	um so there could be some territory that
6375s	you could just find weapons that you
6376s	think sounds cool and it's not
6378s	necessarily associated with tier or not
6380s	we are
6381s	looking into how that operates a little
6384s	bit further
6385s	because i think internally we're also
6387s	thinking that there could be maybe like
6389s	unique sounds for lower tiers that are
6391s	just randomized and then unique sounds
6393s	for higher tiers that are you know
6394s	randomized but but uh like i said uh
6397s	that may or may not reach true fruition
6401s	it's not a priority
6403s	for our uh sounds
6406s	to get that level of of polish and
6409s	detail at this time you can just see you
6412s	know from the
6414s	the demonstration of you know going in
6416s	and showing you these weapons that we
6418s	want there to be more weapon sounds
6420s	right especially since you know there's
6422s	a pretty strong pool of weapons
6425s	there's pretty strong pool weapons and
6427s	so weapon sounds are going to be
6428s	important to you know
6430s	and all the variants of these as well
6432s	and possibly more coming i don't know uh
6435s	we want there to be a lot and we want
6436s	that to shape and change your style even
6439s	you want
6440s	a sound of a weapon that's like is cool
6443s	to you
6444s	you know maybe there's going to be some
6446s	aspect of that that uh is in the
6447s	randomization pool and maybe even
6450s	something that could be uh uh adjusted
6453s	uh or or modified to your liking in the
6455s	future i don't know
6457s	just an idea
6458s	can't can't guarantee anything uh on
6461s	that front i want to be clear on that
6462s	i'm teasing a little bit but i i
6464s	sincerely can't guarantee anything
6465s	upfront so
6466s	um let's see a couple more questions and
6469s	then we will play that sweet trailer
6471s	again yeah
6474s	yeah okay so let's answer a couple more
6475s	questions
6485s	uh will you be able to record everspace
6487s	2 gameplay because you can't do that on
6489s	everspace one
6493s	i'm confused by the question i have
6495s	definitely recorded and posted everspace
6498s	1 gameplay
6499s	a lot on my youtube channel before i was
6502s	officially working for rockford's games
6507s	so i'm i'm curious what's going on with
6509s	that if you have a technical issue uh
6512s	yilia
6513s	i would strongly suggest you head on
6515s	over to the forums and post what's going
6518s	on maybe somebody can't help you out in
6520s	the community that sounds very
6522s	interesting
6535s	or maybe i'm not understanding it
6536s	because michael just responded and said
6538s	that's a feature being high on our list
6540s	but it's tricky while also not the most
6542s	important on uh one gameplay wise so
6544s	changes are low okay so uh i digress
6548s	i digress
6551s	uh anyway so
6553s	flying laser pods as secondaries look
6555s	look i am
6556s	okay
6558s	if you guys have ideas for like what you
6560s	want to see as weaponry and stuff that
6562s	that kind of that's kind of past at this
6563s	point uh
6565s	just letting you know like we have a
6567s	number of ideas that we are going to
6569s	bring to fruition some of which may uh
6571s	feel familiar
6573s	and uh you know there's
6575s	there's just it's it's gonna be fun it's
6577s	gonna be nice uh to get to that point in
6579s	the future we just have to get
6581s	there and uh i think you'll i think
6584s	you'll like what we're cooking up
6590s	um
6591s	okay i like this statement regarding uh
6594s	larger ships in the railgun uh so the
6596s	railgun and its auto aim
6598s	has a weird aim assist where it hits
6601s	nearby ships instead of larger targets
6604s	uh even though you're aiming um on the
6607s	gamepad yeah so this is something that
6609s	we've actually been talking about
6610s	internally as well to try and adjust
6614s	the aim assist and like how it like
6617s	clicks over if you will
6619s	um so that you have a good experience on
6622s	the gamepad
6624s	and the game's being intuitive and how
6626s	it's approaching
6627s	what you're trying to shoot at
6629s	so more adjustments on that front in the
6632s	future that is something that we are
6634s	still sort of addressing
6638s	it's something we're still addressing
6642s	why can you not upgrade weapons you
6644s	craft yourself uh
6646s	simply put
6647s	because
6648s	if you could upgrade weapons that you
6651s	craft yourself then that would make
6652s	crafting at unique rarities really weird
6657s	if you want a superior craft is superior
6660s	if you want a superior new crop to
6661s	common that didn't upgrade it one two
6663s	three times to like get around the fact
6665s	that you don't have a blueprint and
6666s	that's getting around the fact that you
6668s	don't have the blueprint we don't like
6669s	that so
6670s	if you want to craft at that tier you
6672s	need to find the blueprint to be able to
6673s	craft at that tier that's that's the
6676s	that's the short
6680s	let's see any more did i miss any any
6682s	other questions
6684s	desired commodities resources etc easier
6686s	retro not case ass like dedicated mining
6689s	areas uh yeah absolutely there's there's
6691s	been a lot on that front um i think it's
6693s	actually uh yeah it's like right here
6696s	you know you go to your mining map you
6697s	can say i'm looking for iron
6700s	you pop this open it tells you like
6701s	there's medium accounts of iron in these
6703s	locations
6706s	or there's high amounts in the gmb
6707s	mining fields and neptune's planes so
6709s	we'd probably want to go back over there
6710s	for that uh yeah lots of stuff like that
6713s	to enable crafting even more so if
6715s	you're looking for
6716s	specific things to craft like say i
6718s	don't know um
6722s	whatever i need something that i don't
6723s	have oh here we go so we can track the
6725s	missing resources right where the plasma
6726s	is now highlighted yellow so we know
6728s	that when we find plasma uh we can pick
6730s	it up more readily available since it'll
6732s	be highlighted in yellow um little
6734s	features like that there's a lot
6736s	there's a lot that's been done on this
6738s	front we've talked about it a bit
6739s	already
6740s	but yeah lots lots of stuff
6743s	dedicated mining areas i think is a good
6745s	way of describing it
6747s	um
6749s	and maybe like one more question and
6750s	then we're gonna watch that trailer
6752s	again
6759s	the gravity effects going to be like on
6761s	these new planets since gravity seems
6763s	mostly like space low gravity on current
6765s	planets um so i do want to i want to
6767s	temper expectations on this front so i
6769s	think that
6771s	i i've seen a number of
6773s	thoughts ideas suggestions surrounding
6776s	how like when you are in space versus
6778s	you're on a planet that the gravity
6780s	should affect you differently right
6782s	in a realistic world you're absolutely
6786s	right it should
6788s	it absolutely should but there are also
6790s	degrees of gamification that we apply to
6792s	the game space that the player doesn't
6794s	have to challenge themselves with unique
6796s	styles of uh experiences that we don't
6799s	simply desire so i'm not saying that we
6802s	are doing it right i'm also not saying
6804s	we're doing it wrong i'm saying we're
6805s	doing it the way that we're doing it
6807s	because it's the way we want to do it
6809s	and as such when you are in space versus
6811s	when you are on a planet uh gravity does
6814s	not impose itself upon the player it
6817s	will impact certain items uh like
6819s	physical items that can fall
6823s	but i don't think that's even something
6824s	we want to make different between
6826s	planets because that's another level of
6829s	memorization that you would have to do
6830s	as a player that it gets weird
6832s	it's just a lot of stuff that we don't
6834s	necessarily feel is necessary
6839s	so yeah
6841s	uh and then we'll like just to cut like
6843s	oh my gosh i see more questions why
6845s	don't we get back to this trailer oh
6846s	goodness here let me find a let me find
6848s	a stopping point
6850s	to um rest our weary head
6853s	there we go gas field
6858s	any info yet on being able to retrieve
6860s	items from home-based storage while in
6861s	another system not yet
6864s	not yet
6865s	not yet
6868s	where can i read more about the game end
6869s	game ideas ship development only played
6871s	everspace one a bit you can find a lot
6873s	of information over on the discord
6874s	actually uh we talk about that a lot
6877s	there's also a kickstarter page for
6879s	everspace too was kickstarted and it has
6881s	a lot of updates through that but i
6883s	think the best spot straight up is going
6886s	to be the steam page you go to steam
6887s	page you follow it or wishlist it
6890s	you're going to be able to see
6893s	immediately like any updates and
6895s	features and improvements and highlights
6897s	and all that type of stuff we also have
6898s	a youtube channel where we've covered a
6900s	lot of things as well uh my goodness and
6902s	then of course these friday streams i'm
6904s	just constantly cracking into new things
6906s	and highlighting stuff and answering
6907s	questions
6909s	uh you could probably tell
6911s	so uh yeah
6916s	so this is the part where uh we go back
6918s	to the trailer cause it's super cool
6921s	right
6921s	so let's do that uh oh yeah there we go
6924s	so yeah and nice nice little imagery
6926s	here we see that drake gang wars
6928s	arriving soon
6931s	arriving soon early access update number
6934s	five and as many of our veteran pilots
6936s	know when we say
6939s	update we're not talking some minor
6941s	little adjustment there's a lot of stuff
6943s	we've been talking about across uh the
6946s	last couple months uh it's all gonna be
6949s	in here it's gonna be it's gonna make a
6951s	pretty big impact we feel like so
6953s	uh yeah we're looking forward to that
6956s	all right let's play this again here we
6958s	go
6960s	[Applause]
6979s	so
6989s	oh my gosh guys it hypes me up
6993s	it hypes me up oh there's so much juicy
6996s	content in that
6998s	oh goodness so hey um just because we
7000s	just talked about it i also want to make
7002s	sure that you guys do know look at all
7004s	these places that you can't go for more
7005s	information i really would recommend
7007s	though that the best way to get the
7010s	details regarding everspace 2 are going
7012s	to be through
7014s	um these live streams every friday where
7016s	i literally talk to you guys about
7018s	upcoming updates and features and
7021s	highlight little teases like this sweet
7023s	freaking trailer and then also you know
7026s	the steam store page in particular

7050s	gonna be the two big things so being
7051s	here present in the streams asking
7054s	questions and just being a general
7056s	baller like that's that's honestly how
7058s	to do it
7059s	so very very good stuff
7062s	uh also just random throwback you guys

7067s	50 years ago actually it's 75 years ago
7071s	ah amazing super impressive uh yeah
7075s	seriously you should check those out
7076s	just to see how far we've come and see
7078s	what's been realized
7080s	oh my gosh it's a lot of fun those vlogs
7081s	can be found on youtube
7084s	uh and we are not making more vlogs
7086s	before anyone i dang it grindel already
7088s	ash but we're not making more vlogs
7090s	um but yeah you can check those out
7093s	uh and just see just really how far
7096s	things have progressed
7098s	seriously cool uh a lot of fun
7102s	and uh yeah
7104s	guys that's honestly like the end of the
7106s	stream i know that we're done a little
7108s	bit short today um that's not that's not
7110s	a worry whatsoever we could just like
7112s	chill with the jellies and hang out um
7114s	i'm totally down for doing that we can
7116s	answer some more questions that you have
7118s	since i know that you have a lot of them
7120s	i mean there's there's a lot of
7121s	information that we shared today you
7123s	know some of which has been kind of you
7125s	know just quality life features
7126s	improvements general things that you
7127s	kind of knew were coming we've
7129s	highlighted more things that are on the
7131s	way and of course we were able to drop
7134s	that trailer for the first time and uh
7137s	i'm sure you got questions so
7139s	yeah go ahead and ask some questions
7140s	just keep in mind that if your questions
7142s	about the specifics of what was that
7144s	thing we saw in the trailer i'm not
7146s	answering that i can't i can't
7150s	the trailer's supposed to tease you
7152s	ah it's tantalizing isn't it
7155s	oh my goodness
7157s	what did i miss says animated viking who
7160s	just enters the stream oh my gosh guys
7162s	do we tell him do we no i've just been
7165s	eating food for the last hour and 55
7168s	minutes uh that's that's it that's what
7170s	you
7173s	oh man i think you're gonna love
7174s	replaying this one though there's a
7175s	there's a lot of fun we're probably
7177s	gonna we're probably gonna play the
7178s	trailer one more time because why not
7180s	we'll do it like right at the end
7182s	but uh okay what do you guys got what do
7184s	you guys got uh spoon knight says
7186s	between the coil gun prime zapper and
7188s	equalizer what's your favorite of the
7189s	three from your testing oh gosh
7192s	what a question
7194s	you know um
7195s	it's through testing alone that makes me
7198s	appreciate weapons that have
7200s	greater energy reserves for some reason
7204s	um just being able to fire it more
7206s	frequently is just incredibly satisfying
7208s	there is still something to be said
7210s	about like the equalizer and the uh
7214s	syncro pulse so i was even using the
7216s	secret pulse today right where it has a
7218s	very large energy draw
7220s	but it does a lot of damage uh to
7222s	compensate for that
7224s	so
7225s	it's it really is hard to tell though
7227s	it really is hard to tell um and it
7229s	depends on how like what i'm feeling in
7232s	the moment too because it changes
7233s	depending on what ship you're using what
7235s	equipment you have uh it sincerely looks
7238s	different
7238s	sincerely looks different
7240s	so nice haircut my dude rocking the
7242s	shortcut on the side oh thank you yeah
7244s	thanks
7245s	absolutely i did in fact get a haircut
7247s	this week
7250s	i appreciate you noticing
7253s	delightful uh let's see
7256s	wondering if it will actually be
7258s	end of june for beta oh man that's that
7261s	would be that would be seriously cool
7263s	it's the 17th uh let's see when are we
7266s	releasing it uh 2025 uh yeah i think
7269s	it's gonna it's it might
7271s	it's possible it's uh
7274s	but no i mean based on our our schedule
7277s	of events um
7278s	i mean i feel like that's not a terrible
7280s	guess
7282s	yeah i know a lot of you guys are super
7283s	eager to to get it into your hands uh
7286s	you know with that coming soon that's a
7288s	pretty good note
7290s	uh pretty good should provide a pretty
7292s	good gauge for you guys uh to just know
7295s	that like it like we don't say coming
7296s	soon when it's going to be six months
7298s	out i mean let me just be real on that
7300s	front
7301s	so
7302s	yeah
7304s	uh let's see
7305s	any new weapons with the drake system if
7308s	not when are new weapons coming um
7311s	it's a little too telling
7313s	uh of a response to you yelya but do
7316s	know that with each update we do like to
7319s	include a slew of new content and we
7322s	also like to provide content that isn't
7323s	talked about
7324s	in the live streams so that it ends up
7326s	being a surprise or you know what have
7330s	you um that's that's all that's
7332s	incredibly telling what i just said
7334s	there but the point is is that new stuff
7337s	can show up
7338s	and new weapons are absolutely something
7340s	that we are still working on uh they're
7343s	just you know
7344s	time energy
7346s	you know
7347s	just takes it
7352s	uh let's see i missed a question any way
7355s	to get stl files for the everspace ships
7359s	uh michael did respond to this one so
7361s	i'm gonna read it off directly i've only
7363s	seen this question like one other time
7365s	by the way which impressively surprises
7367s	me
7368s	i would want my hands on those bad boys
7370s	and like
7371s	print them out but uh this is what
7372s	michael says he says it's tricky because
7374s	player ships are based on modules we
7376s	might look into this if we have the time
7379s	but no promises and let me just confirm
7382s	michael on that front uh we have had
7384s	internal talks about that
7387s	about like having stl files but it does
7389s	look different if we were going that
7391s	direction and when i say look different
7392s	i mean it's going gonna take us time to
7395s	move in a different direction in order
7396s	to create that at the end of the day
7398s	we're a video game company creating a
7400s	video game that's our focus
7403s	that's our focus when we're looking at
7405s	like a physical
7407s	you know 3d model of a ship badass
7410s	don't get me wrong but it's actually out
7412s	of the scope
7414s	of what our initial job is or what our
7416s	initial uh vision is if you want to go
7419s	in that direction so as michael said i
7422s	just want to you know really double down
7424s	on this is this thing possible
7427s	yes
7428s	is it something that we are going to do
7431s	no promises
7433s	no promises we can't we can't
7435s	make that promise all right so
7438s	hopefully that adjusts expectations
7439s	accordingly and i hope you guys
7441s	understand that as well
7444s	enemy abilities behaviors or difficulty
7446s	levels adjusted anywhere based on your
7448s	current ships tier not your current
7450s	ships tier no
7452s	they are not
7453s	that is not something we have be a
7456s	modifier no
7459s	ah
7460s	[Music]
7461s	allergies seem to be under control yes i
7463s	punched them uh in the face
7466s	all of my allergies every single one of
7468s	them they are gone
7470s	beat boxing please oh my gosh you guys
7473s	it's been a while i wasn't expecting
7476s	this request you guys are nuts
7479s	oh you guys are absolutely nuts
7484s	but i love you all dearly
7486s	oh my goodness
7488s	uh what else what else do we have any
7489s	other questions
7494s	make an mmo sandbox uh
7497s	[Music]
7499s	is that what the question was please
7500s	make this game a massively multiplayer
7502s	online sandbox and will be the greatest
7504s	game ever uh yeah so as michael
7506s	responded if you have a few hundred
7508s	million dollars you want to throw at us
7510s	we would be more than happy uh to
7512s	probably just create a completely
7514s	different game to do that we would also
7516s	release everspace 2 separately uh but
7519s	yeah no it's a couple million no big
7521s	deal uh wait did i say a couple i meant
7524s	hundred a couple hundred million that
7525s	would be fine we'd get on that
7527s	uh
