246s that are happening uh things that are
248s kind of changing and also uh a little
251s differ um which I'll talk about in a
253s little bit uh regarding Indie Studios so
257s yes we'll uh we'll have a little look
258s see but we're going to crack on with our
260s usual uh hard play through you guys know
263s that I've been fairly miserably with

276s and answer them as best I can uh also if
279s you do have any other uh questions um
282s that maybe Michael might jump in on
284s because we have got the CEO of Rockfish
285s games with us again thank you very much
287s for joining us Michael on a Friday
289s evening um please do please do uh ah see
293s there we go Flor always good if doubt a
295s Reload of a web page always works always
298s works right let's get loaded up stream
301s save hard to we're at the home base at
304s rodia
306s 2 so let's get on with it shall we uh
311s let me just move that over there so I
313s can see
315s that oh the real estate the real estate
318s got it all over the place all over the
321s place I tell
322s you right so yeah if you do have any
324s questions please holler uh let's have a
327s look where we're up to with this so x
329s mark the spot got to open the jump kit
332s jump G rather to Kate nebula could be a
335s bit problematic that one I did have an
337s issue uh even though I'm only level 15
339s is level 17 just got to be careful Union
342s signal decoder just catching up with
344s everything that we've got uh so yeah
347s let's have a little set we got Vault
349s worthy five stops away we should really
352s probably head back to uh Kato Palace and
355s do some stuff uh yeah
360s to be honest with you bed frog I know
361s you just mentioned about the uh the
363s racing challenge um I haven't practiced
366s at all um so uh I may not get around to
370s it we've got a lot to get through and uh
373s yeah uh if I can I can but I'm not
375s promising it not promise
378s it uh right so I think we'll do yeah
382s we'll go to k Palace I think it'll be a
383s good start here we are flying along in
385s our trusty
387s Sentinel look there's Terin ship hanging
390s now lovely right let's get jumped
397s away I think I need to practice a bit
399s more cuz I don't want to fail it I don't
401s want to keep failing it we have received
403s a oneway transmission we' got a oneway
405s transmission again identifiable source
408s is it fall and Pango playing games is it
410s fall and
413s Pango if you remember when we were
415s playing through it the last time I did
416s get this activated unfortunately what I
418s didn't do is I didn't actually say my
420s game um so I was a little bit behind so
425s uh catch up a bit more with this game
427s save but anyway here we go we're not far
430s behind so this is the kickoff of the um
433s early retirement which if you've played
435s through the Titans DLC then you know
438s that is how all things start we're going
441s to k p this anyway so uh perfect
447s TI yeah to be fair I think it it was a
450s fluke I really do think it was a fluke
452s the racing challenges are tough uh I
454s mean we kind of up the anti a little bit
456s with uh uh a little bit of um difference
460s should we say by using the bomber you
463s know
464s uh and all manner of uh weird things
468s where do we need to we actually want to
469s be going to Prescott don't we let's head
472s there come on let's go
475s there downin is off is always tough so
477s if you've ever tried it it can be a very
480s very good
481s um uh flight mechanic uh but we do
484s consider it to be one of the more
487s difficult ones hence why we don't have
489s the button to turn the inertia damp
490s iners on and off uh selected by default
493s can you tell me anything else about my
494s other iterations because we wouldn't
496s want people to get caught out with that
498s we have had a few issues where people
499s have accidentally you know bound a key
501s and then they SLI sliding all over with
503s Somey and kind of physics and it gets
505s very very
506s difficult which could be considered a
509s level of social engagement which was
511s beyond most of your earlier
513s self-centered considerations I got to
515s love him okay he's the best he's the
522s best right let's crack on Cross to
526s Prescot as we try and get through these
528s levels as well uh similar to how Eric
530s was doing it we might have to take some
531s kind of side challenges side missions
534s Etc uh just to kind of beef up our
538s levels a little bit because the higher
539s you stack into the levels um in
542s difficulty can sometimes have a little
545s bit of an issue just a little bit of an
547s issue but we'll see we'll see somebody
549s doesn't want to be found yeah it doesn't
551s it doesn't right I tell you what we're
552s going to do is we are going to head
557s down I'm trying to remember
561s where actually let's go visit
564s the black market dealer just to see what
567s they've got sometimes it's just nice to
569s pop in and see what they have uh in
571s their
573s shop um okay recharge AR
578s OFA
580s uh okay we do need Dart matter I cargo
584s dispatcher not something I'm really
585s probably going to use but you can see
587s hanger size uh I do need all the sport I
591s can help yeah all Like A muster that's a
593s moral support and uh you know help
595s within the
597s game but I'm sure you guys uh I've got a
600s shout out to some of you guys that
602s absolutely Blitz through the game you
603s know we do put uh quite a few
605s difficulties in there and you are you
608s just blow it away you really do uh to be
610s fair and um you actually
613s surprise uh members of the dev team uh I
616s do sure what people are
619s um uh what you've come up with and they
621s are actually super impressed super
623s impressed um because we have some good
625s pilots on the team uh I know Yan is a
628s particularly good pilot and whenever I
630s kind of highlight what you guys have
632s done even he's like yeah that that is
636s good so yeah we hav't really got
637s anything here that we
639s want let's just do the early retirement
642s from here search for the entrance to the
648s cor further up isn't it hang on we don't
652s want to be through here we want to be
655s along there's Vault worthy which I've
658s already been doing uh n and we're
660s definitely not doing the racetrack let's
663s go let's just go find this way point
666s let's get
673s on okay through there isn't
682s it there we
686s go new
688s here where flying along flying
694s along right let's get that locked and
697s loaded who are you and how did you know
699s to contact me call me cardinus I have
703s access to records of your work with
705s commissioner haulk do you work for her
708s for her no what I'm about to tell you
712s can't be shared even with assembled at
716s rodia 2 how do you know about rhia it's
720s my duty to know what happens in the DMZ
723s do you recall the dreadnots that served
726s in the okar war aren't they all retired
729s now the CFS minawa was the last in
732s service scheduled to be dismantled at a
734s shipyard in the core systems it was
736s hijacked on Route someone hijacked a
739s colonial Fleet dreadnut how a man on the
742s inside the ship's executive officer Noah
745s Patel passed the access codes to an
748s outside group but the brain behind the
751s hijacking is a known terrorist known
754s terrorist terrist terrorist I've never
756s heard of that known terrorist people
759s like me ensure you don't the good news
762s is many of the minawa systems had
764s already been remove for decommissioning
767s including good evening everyone anyway
769s thank you for those that are joining us
771s hope you're all well hope you're
773s fabulous gotier and Patel took the ship
776s into the DMZ where the colonial Fleet
778s can't pursue because that would break
780s the treaty with the Oar look I'm one guy
783s with a fighter I can't take down a
785s dreadnut even if it's unarmed I don't
788s expect you to destroy it I've shared the
790s minawa schematics with your hi you
794s Freelancers I've hired will disable its
796s two Interstellar
798s drives our goal is it Roslin I know you
802s have the lifetimes of experience
805s required the last reported position of
807s minawa was in zarov head there I'll
811s contact you and my other Freelancers
813s when it's sided
815s again there we go so that's the kickoff
817s of that little Mission there uh
820s obviously to deal with the dreadn I
822s don't think we're ready to am I to
823s assume we Face yet another threat to the
826s pce yes we do hi everything's going for
829s this time you should have received
831s schematics for a colonial dreadn they
833s were quite rudely shoved into my data SC
836s do you know how unnerving it is to
838s suddenly have a memory of that wasn't
840s there a moment before yeah I do you
844s don't get used to it you don't get used
846s to it well said Adam well said
852s Adam right
854s there so let's have a little look here
857s as
858s well okay yeah that's fine that's fine
863s uh jobs Okay so we've got some that we
867s might want to do volatile good
870s that's always a fun one think what we're
872s going to do is we're going to take on a
874s few of these I think just to bring some
878s oh destroyed base is always good as well
880s we like that one we like that one uh
883s Ramen
885s deliveries it can be fun if you're into
888s that kind of thing so what we'll do is
890s we'll just do those for the time being
892s uh actually we're going to pick up
894s another one cuz we need to do the three
897s so let's just do one more
899s before we fly off we might actually do
901s one of the ramen ones that are some
904s people do find them difficult because of
906s the wobbly nature
908s uh they're not too
911s shabby right got to be careful to not
913s destroy any of the drones paid
917s much thanks I can see the questions
919s coming in I I will get to them roughly
922s like we normally do around the half hour
924s mark uh we'll have a little answer of as
927s many as we can right off we go let's
930s find The Sweet Spot between fast and
932s careful fast and
934s careful yeah there we

995s Ramen hello this is a fun fun little one
998s isn't
999s it we go Bo there we go unloading in
1004s time excellent completed the job cool
1007s you can always be counted on Mr Rosland
1009s credits are in your account
1013s excellent all see we got some Renown as
1017s well Renown on the lucky a little yeah
1021s you know I'm sure that's all that your
1024s face again mrto is sending around I
1028s suppose I should thank you for getting
1030s Clockwork out of that mess you should
1033s but will you you must have a soft spot
1036s you went right over your uncle's head
1037s for her it's none of your beeswax
1040s besides I can't have a broad cramp in my
1043s style as if you have style to cramp look
1046s darl I'm a busy guy what is it you want
1049s we have an access code for the central
1051s database at zarov border control which
1053s can prove very valuable to us this
1056s access code I take it that's what
1058s Clockwork stole which brought the oart
1060s down on her you're catching on if we
1063s could see the database we could track
1065s and divert any shipment in the
1068s system remove some
1070s undesirable from the picture to [ __ ]
1073s the supply networks you get me yeah get
1076s me so what is it you're asking me to do
1079s will there be trouble waiting for me on
1081s the other end again it'll be in and out
1084s that's exactly what you said last time
1086s never trust anything that Daryl says to
1088s you make it worth your while oh Mr
1092s kto yeah definitely yeah absolutely Lee
1096s is definitely right reputable
1097s businessman a Cornerstone of the
1100s community how can he go himself yeah I
1104s wonder why I don't know why I'm doing
1106s this to be honest like all the other
1108s Merc for the creds I imags I'm Adam by
1112s the way I don't
1115s care ah she's great as Clockwork she's
1118s absolutely great
1123s uh right let's do the five stops away
1125s it's a little bit below our level but
1127s still good worth the
1130s credit uh good evening everyone all you
1132s people are just come in tell her how you
1134s doing danlock Briggs hello hello hello
1138s good evening hope you well hope you're
1146s fabulous I I see what you say that a b
1149s frog you'd be neat if you could gamble
1151s at um K's Palace um I think if if K has
1156s anything to uh to kind of go by in his
1158s reputation I suspect that the stack uh
1161s the the odds of you winning would be
1163s seriously stacked against
1165s you I really do
1171s I'm not saying he'd Rigg them or
1173s anything but I just think that your
1174s chances of winning would be very very
1182s low right here we
1185s go this is one of the the interesting
1187s environments because people sometimes do
1189s get lost in here and it is a kind of
1190s intentional design you know uh space and
1194s various places does have these different
1195s kind of anomalies that you have to
1197s Traverse around and this can be a little
1200s bit problematic to always find your way
1202s around now one of the things that you
1204s can do and can utilize is putting one of
1207s those down a little marker which is very
1210s very handy so you know where you should
1212s head now also we do give especially in
1215s this environment certain visual markers
1217s already which you'll find uh probably as
1220s we go around here uh there's like
1222s beacons for various things but if you do
1224s find that you're kind of losing your way
1226s a little bit just use one of these and
1228s on uh on PC anyway it's the plus uh key
1232s on your npad and another Race location
1235s well spotted florry yeah
1239s absolutely right let's crack on with
1241s this one let's see how this one's going
1242s to Fair Mark the terminal we need to
1244s access let's find it may I remind you
1246s that by associating with these people
1248s you further risk exposure to the okar
1251s authorities I am uncertain as to how
1253s much longer we can keep your activities
1255s concealed okay yeah we get go ahead and
1257s remind me all you want I'm carrying this
1259s through besides I'm kind of curious
1262s about what Daryl and Clockwork are up to
1264s indeed undoubtedly something underhanded
1267s in which they are playing you for a
1269s stooge I think there's something more to
1273s it all right let's crack on this
1275s terminal and see what happens hack hack
1277s hack and hack a bit more hey Clockwork
1280s I'm uploading the code okay let's see
1283s what we can get so am I done here uh
1287s scrap don't think
1289s though stop right there you do not have
1292s the required permission for this access
1295s you kidding me you kidding the cold was
1298s outdated we've set off the alarm yeah I
1301s can see that I got incoming all around
1303s me give me a minute I'll shut it off you
1306s do that I'm just going to be here trying
1308s to stay alive
1340s I really need to up my ability for the
1343s shields
1361s save it still among the living still
1362s among the living you were worried about
1364s me yeah sure but don't let it go to your
1367s head and hey since you're not dead I've
1370s got an idea lucky me an IDE you know
1373s what's even better than access codes
1375s security codes you know how security
1379s cods up the wazu security ships like the
1382s kind that just got blown up all around
1384s me hey you're not as dumb as darl said
1389s you there a certain irony there isn't
1391s there there is a certain
1393s irony darl is saying that you're a bit
1396s dumb what do you think hve is this any
1398s good this is a high security Mainframe
1402s component it may contain sensitive
1404s information sounds like it might hey
1407s Clockwork I got something trans my way
1411s don't worry Tyler I'm sure I'll forget
1413s later on I was actually hoping it would
1415s um hold on uh come up for use cuz I
1419s thought I was getting a bit surrounded
1420s there shields were going down I thought
1422s I need to hit that
1424s GK Mark the terminal that matches the
1426s cod's identification number already done
1430s this is too easy it's almost like we've
1431s got a
1435s reputation right okay we're just going
1438s to go over there I'm just going to throw
1443s in put a g back
1446s there a little comat
1449s Dr hello just see you there boo boost
1453s there we
1455s go okie dokie so another little battle
1461s inbound another terminal let's get it
1464s hacked
1470s uploading code to the security terminal
1472s now hold it you don't have the required
1475s permission for this access I'll give me
1478s a break another alarm yeah sorry that
1481s was my bad I got more security ships on
1483s my ass then pull up your bres and deal
1487s with itow keep them busy while I
1489s download all the shipment data
1505s okay right let's get these
1509s done well
1514s exeed way out the way come on you thank
1526s you all right area is clear and I'm I'm
1528s in one piece and I have full access to
1531s the zako VOD control database a cakewalk
1536s easy for you to say anyway mind telling
1538s me what the hell that was all about we
1541s must change the codes every now and
1542s again so the first didn't work not my
1546s problem no my problem so why did the
1549s second alarm go off I did that to cover
1552s for the actual hack now that the second
1555s attack was simulated the security code
1557s is still valid and anyway you fet too
1560s much B for your health see you around no
1563s you're bad for my health H she's
1566s gone I love how people are kind of
1568s dissing on me because I've used an
1569s ultimate twice pleased to you of
1572s listings on the for your consideration
1574s there be times when I don't use it at
1575s all I'm just making up for those
1578s times cool there we go now obviously we
1581s can Venture around here as well to find
1583s some secrets and stuff but you
1585s know you know we we we need to head back
1588s uh probably back to Prescott ideally
1590s let's see if we can kick this on a
1591s little
1593s bit oh dear there we go so yeah if you
1597s do have any more um H questions do fire
1600s them in we're more than
1604s happy to answer them in a little
1617s smidge oh yeah that's one of my jobs
1619s isn't it that is one of the jobs me just
1622s go to
1625s there just bear with me right one thing
1627s I'm just going to change one of my
1628s settings cuz I am playing on full window
1631s full screen but I just want to go to
1635s window just temporarily onto
1639s there there we go right let's just get
1643s that on the
1645s go let's just do this
1652s we have arrived at the provided
1654s coordinates okay oh we've got the
1657s destroy Communications fuel tanks energy
1659s coils turrets bomb throwers etc
1664s etc ideally I'm going to uh avoid that

1848s sound so shocked at
1854s them Okie doie right there's
1857s Communications Tower
1862s en coil you can see once we get down to
1864s the last view we did make a change uh
1867s quite a while back actually so that
1868s things were highlighted so when you're
1871s down to the last couple uh
1875s items it will
1879s highlight Target destroyed get
1886s destroyed and so we oh I completed that
1890s job for you Mr K will be pleased there
1893s we
1895s go excellent right let's just do that
1898s clear rewards Cruise
1901s booster we'll clar it clar it Ramen
1904s we'll claim that as well Hitman still
1906s Todo which is the next one on there
1909s right let's just Che the time perfect
1912s right on the money right on the
1915s money uh so yeah if you got any
1917s questions that you need answering I'll
1919s try and answer them if not I will follow
1921s up with you um either on the Discord or
1925s uh steam wherever you are um so let's
1929s have a little look see we've got a few
1931s here right uh Bearded Frog um obviously
1935s you're asking earlier if you're were
1936s going to do the racing challenge uh
1937s maybe if I get time um I might be able
1940s to do it we'll have to wait and see uh
1942s on on that one um then following up with
1946s Bearded Frog again so with Eric now
1949s moved on uh if Gary has something come
1951s up and can't make a stream will they
1953s just cancel for an hour or is it going
1955s to be someone that fills in uh for me um
1958s now just to answer that one obviously
1960s Eric uh has left the team um I'm sure
1963s he's going to be appearing from time to
1964s time um we have a lot of love and
1966s respect for Eric he's uh he's been
1968s wonderful to work with now specifically
1970s in terms of the streams then yes it may
1975s be the case that we don't have the
1977s stream if for example
1978s uh I'm not available um there's not many
1981s on the team that can jump in and just do
1984s that in the future that may change um
1987s who who knows however uh in the interim
1990s yeah if I'm unavailable um then
1992s generally yeah the stream would be
1993s cancelled we try and make it up to you
1996s at some point obviously if uh I mean
1998s when I'm you know back I could do a a
2000s Discord stream just in case anybody was
2002s missing anything uh but overall yes we
2004s would probably cancel
2005s them uh excelsia on YouTube again um are
2010s there plans to expand item icons
2013s initially it wasn't a problem that some
2014s items shared this same icon but with all
2016s the new set items find spefic specific
2019s gear in the inventory is not easy um now
2023s I have brought this up with the team
2024s before um in regards uh items now
2027s obviously when you look at the say the
2029s autonomous set there with the Genesis
2031s barrier you can see just in the bottom
2033s left hand corner they've got that little
2034s green icon just to you know basically
2037s say that that's part of that and
2038s obviously got the two which is quite
2040s handy um so I may put those on just for
2042s the bonus uh same with the blue there
2044s for the Rogue
2046s set
2048s um now uh when I brought it up with the
2051s team it's been something that they would
2055s consider but I don't think it's likely
2057s to happen um there's a few issues with
2062s uh making these work I know it just
2063s looks like adding a few extra dots uh
2065s Etc but I don't think the team are going
2067s to venture down that path um it that
2071s could change though okay I'm not going
2072s to say without a Shadow of Doubt that'll
2074s never happen but I know when be spoken
2076s to te's uh who does a lot of work on the
2079s UI uh and the ux kind of uh Department
2083s uh it's probably not something that we
2084s are going to do uh on this one but again
2087s I will keep mentioning it uh I will have
2089s words uh and discussions around that as
2091s we do uh and just to point out I know a
2093s lot of people will may be coming up with
2095s ideas we've seen a few on the Discord of
2096s late as well uh where people were um
2100s asking oh can this feature be added can
2102s this I I will take those on board uh
2104s it's my job as a community manag to
2106s listen to what you guys are saying uh
2108s and then to put those opinions across to
2110s the team now as been said and we always
2112s say this it is not a guarantee that
2114s those things are going to happen or be
2118s changed or be implemented um it's just
2120s that we'll have that conversation uh
2122s there's got to be a certain
2124s value um in Dev time and what it will
2128s bring to the game some things are easy
2129s to change some things are more difficult
2131s than Eve planning and how many different
2133s aspects of the game that they will
2134s affect so on paper it might be
2140s easy um you know uh on paper to to
2144s implement something but then there's a
2145s lot of things in the background how all
2147s the different elements work together so
2150s yeah if you have uh an opinion or some
2154s feedback on anything whether it's good
2156s or bad do put it down we want to hear it
2158s uh we're quite open about this uh and as
2161s I've said it's my job to collect that
2163s and then bring it to the team
2165s um if there's already an existing post
2168s and this is what I will say especially
2169s on Steam if there's already an existing
2171s post then add it into there um because
2175s it kind of It kind of builds uh and
2178s embellishes everything uh around that
2180s kind of uh discussion uh lots of
2183s separate different posts can get lost uh
2185s so yeah we you know where I'm going with
2187s that anyway but um let's see next
2191s question from twitch this time oh valros
2193s how you doing valrus uh is there any
2195s group content in this game how l g in
2197s the group eight um for ever Space 2
2199s there is no multiplayer there's no Co-op
2203s um now people have asked for this and it
2205s obviously um we again as to my previous
2207s question an answer um it's something
2210s that we're very aware of however
2212s everspace 2 from the ground up was built
2215s as a single player game and to try and
2218s Implement any form of multiplayer or
2220s Co-op because they're very very similar
2223s it would take quite a significant
2226s rewrite of the code and we're so far
2228s into development um with everspace 2
2231s that it's just not going to happen um so
2236s sadly yeah I it's a repeated comment we
2239s hear and you know we're very aware of it
2241s uh that people want to just pick it up
2243s play with our friends for an hour do
2244s some missions do combat whatever it is
2247s we have very very um uh aware of it so
2251s uh yeah whilst you know it's not
2253s something that we're going to be
2254s implemented in ever space too
2256s unfortunately um excelsia uh is Shuan
2260s still around uh will um for those of you
2262s who don't know obviously will was on the
2263s team for for many years um and I
2266s actually saw him at Gamescom uh when we
2269s were there uh he was visiting but yes
2271s will Shian is no longer on the team he
2275s hasn't been for for a little while um
2278s but yeah he's doing well when I spoke to
2280s him uh he's looking happy uh and yeah
2283s he's is's a real cool guy and uh
2285s absolutely uh superb to to catch up with
2288s him again so uh yeah it's uh it's always
2291s nice to to see your friends within the
2293s industry wherever you are uh you know
2296s who whoever um you've met and cross PA
2299s with with the various gaming events that
2301s we do uh we do get to to see many many
2304s people that we've worked with before so
2306s yeah uh if you got any more questions
2308s fire him in now otherwise I'm going to
2309s be uh harking on my way around the uh
2312s the universe the
2316s DMZ I'm just going to Wet My Whistle
2319s there uh actually while we've got a
2322s little break um I'm just going to touch
2323s on some of the Hot Topics just so people
2325s are uh kind of aware of where we're up
2328s to um I'm just going to go into
2330s photograph mode just cuz I looks nicer
2332s doesn't it uh than seeing the the
2335s inventory so uh currently
2338s um I keep track of the support issues uh
2341s and feed them across to Yan uh who you
2344s would have seen in uh one of our
2346s previous streams uh he's the quality
2348s assurance manager now between us we uh
2352s keep an eye on everything that comes
2353s into the team um with reference
2356s to bugs
2359s crashes uh anomalies something going a
2362s ey um and we've got a few of those
2364s things at the moment um which we're
2366s we're still working on so
2368s Xbox series s users uh I know some of
2371s you were um maybe watching or you
2374s looking for an update um the team is
2378s still working uh very very much as a
2381s priority on this matter uh it is quite
2383s difficult and quite intricate work um
2385s but we're still digging into it we made
2388s some strides uh in progress in basically
2392s fixing the issue um but it hasn't fixed
2394s everything so we're still working
2396s diligently to try and get
2399s this you know uh out the door a fixing
2402s place so that you guys on the series s
2404s can enjoy the game again we know it's
2406s frustrating and it's also very
2408s frustrating for us as well because we
2410s want you guys to play it and when we
2412s have an issue like
2413s this it's an annoyance we can't put it
2416s any other way but we're working on it
2418s doing it as diligently as possible and
2421s hoping uh you know I'm praying that
2423s we'll get some good results um but
2425s that's where we're at with the series s
2428s uh also we were getting some uh changes
2430s on or changes but bugs with the AMD uh
2434s specifically the gpus now we did roll
2436s out a patch uh on Steam good old games
2440s um for users with amdg pus because we
2443s were having literally they couldn't
2445s either start the game or there was a
2446s specific crash that was
2449s happening now we managed to mitigate
2451s most of those
2453s issues um but there are still some
2457s remain and we are trying to dig into
2460s these again uh with the help of AMD
2462s directly as well uh I know Joseph on the
2464s team has been working very very hard on
2466s this Excuse me while I got this stupid
2469s cough so um yeah we're still working on
2472s it again uh another part of the team uh
2475s diving into it Joseph he's one of our
2477s technical programmers an absolute wiiz
2479s of a guy um and he's helping pin those
2482s down so we're doing more and more work
2483s on there um last thing I'm going to
2486s touch on is the
2488s you guys uh some of you anyway are on
2491s the Discord and asked about the loot
2493s scaling that happens with Tysons for
2495s those that aren't aware your the events
2497s that you do either via the dreadn or via
2500s the Leviathan as you progress further
2502s and further through uh the repeated
2504s content there is a kind of ramping in
2507s the quality of the loot that you will
2510s receive um there's kind of certain
2514s thresholds uh that you must meet for
2516s that percentage increase now we did get
2519s some feedback on that um we didn't
2521s reveal any numbers Etc and things like
2523s that because when you put a number in
2524s front of people they kind of literally
2527s always latch onto that specific number
2529s but we've made some tweaks things have
2530s improved for the players uh side of it
2533s so it should be a little bit easier um
2536s going forward so um there we go uh those
2539s was just a three things that I'd managed
2541s to kind of I thought was prudent to give
2545s you some more information on um if you
2547s do have any questions around that or if
2549s you're uh want to follow up with me then
2552s please do um you know hit me up on the
2554s Discord ask more questions on there
2556s although we did put a nice uh post up
2558s there for everybody to see specifically
2560s about those um uh loot scaling uh one
2563s question just come in for a bit frog uh
2565s and I think Le had answered this one in
2567s the chat uh any update on the artbook
2569s global availability uh and Lee I'm just
2573s trying to find your answer in there
2576s um uh yeah Lee still working on it uh
2579s cuz he's taking vacation I mean how rude
2582s I mean taking a vacation what's that all
2584s about I'm on vacation next week um so uh
2588s yeah it's still work in progress
2590s unfortunately so we'll getting there um
2592s as soon as we can uh but yeah there we
2595s go
2600s uh uh oh we got another question just
2603s sneaking in before we have any plans on
2606s adding uh an option for dismantling
2608s Catalyst to dismantle common goods and
2610s consumables
2611s too ah okay um that would be one I could
2616s um follow up with the team um I think
2619s it'd be interesting
2621s to uh okay yeah I hate to click through
2625s remaining items every time okay yeah
2626s yeah yeah now we have had this mentioned
2629s before never seen the the the full
2631s question we have this before about
2633s people saying hey I just want this item
2635s but I've got to dismantle this this and
2636s this to get it uh Alexander type
2639s descriptor on YouTube thank you very
2641s much for the question
2644s um the problem we had is that we we had
2648s a concern that people would accidentally
2651s even though they were trying to get a
2653s specific item and they wanted to
2654s dismantle XY Z to get to that item that
2657s they would dismantle something that they
2659s also
2660s wanted so
2665s um I don't think that would actually
2667s happen but again uh we'll take the
2669s feedback uh and I'll have a discussion
2671s with the team um around if it's
2673s something that we can look at again
2675s we'll look at things like this no
2677s guarantees um that it would actually uh
2681s change or anything like that but there
2683s certainly a conversation can be had um
2686s so yeah there we go there we go right
2688s let's uh let's crack on um a good few
2692s minutes there of some answers if you
2693s have any more do keep coming uh with
2695s them put them in the chat uh will
2697s collect them and uh I will get to read
2700s through them uh in about another 30
2702s minutes or so so let's come out of the
2706s there right there we go how cool is that
2708s oh let's get these credits I want some
2710s credits give me
2712s credits I want those
2723s credits yeah Alexandra I can just see
2725s your your follow-up question there they
2727s can use the load feature if they
2729s dismantle something really valuable that
2730s is very very true uh however what can
2734s happen is that sometimes people maybe
2736s dismantle something and then they may
2739s have a few Auto saves several times um
2743s which if they don't do a manual save
2745s could overwrite it um so again I'll have
2748s I can have the discussion uh when I
2750s return from from leave and and follow up
2753s with the team and see if it's something
2754s that they' look at doing um I know we've
2756s had the discussion B before and I don't
2758s think it will change but again there's
2761s no harm in kind of going back to it and
2763s see if there's any uh uh different
2765s opinion uh on
2767s it uh and you know that's what I'm here
2769s to do
2771s um I just want oh yeah we got the Hitman
2774s one yeah there we go go do that one um
2777s uh if I can pass on any information to
2779s uh for the team then I will absolutely
2788s yeah Lee is uh my partner in crime for
2790s collecting the
2797s questions Blue Streak how you doing over
2799s on Twitch good to see you thanks very
2801s much for joining us hope you're all
2802s Ticky
2811s B okay here we are Hive Mark the
2814s potential targets it is already done
2817s close in on them to start the scanning

2825s freelancer ship which one's it going to
2827s be is it going to be the first one or
2828s the fifth one I don't think for a minute

2832s uh you the one are you the
2835s one are you the one signatures do not no
2840s you're not number one are you right okay
2842s let's head down here
2847s scanning in progress he was move this
2851s won't hurt a bit
2853s okay is
2855s he yes that's the target last guy KO
2860s after me didn't do too well they weren't
2864s me oh hello I just realized I'm in uh
2869s Target
2872s destroyed right I want to get out of
2874s here cuz I'm going to upset everybody
2875s here right right thank you Mr let's get
2877s out of there it's never the first one
2880s yep you're absolutely right uh never the
2884s first
2885s one okay right let's go back to Prescott
2889s we kind of needed to get out of there
2890s quick cuz we're going to be upsetting
2892s the authorities by fting on that Turf
2896s that a good
2901s idea BS are Robbin
2905s absolutely the only thing I did had was
2907s the
2912s coconut right let's head
2921s here what I'm just going to do is I'm
2924s just going to go over to the g&b office
2927s sorry the free a hanger let's just see
2930s what we
2932s got slide down round we go let's get
2935s docked
2938s okay so let's just do a quick restock
2941s yeah there we go let's go to the shop
2943s let's see what we can sell a lot of this
2946s stuff we're not going to need uh let's
2949s do that all that
2950s once all these are freebies so we'll
2953s just sell them yep there we go that's
2957s quite
2958s handy activate that o that's not bad I'm
2964s kind of I mean I'm it's only a 14
2968s but can we modify it can we improve that
2971s Blaster cuz that Blaster is is quite
2974s good no we haven't got any Star charged
2976s conduit so we ar going to improve
2985s that yeah okay we might have to uh think
2989s about removing that one eventually we're
2992s not going to use the
2993s perusa escort Duty
2998s % damage
3000s reduction now do see that's not as good
3004s when combat armor regenerates 2% per
3010s second that's an interesting one really
3013s I don't know it's a 15 and
3017s autonomous I can get another of the
3019s autonomous set that could be quite nice
3028s there a fire
3032s power just going to switch that there
3035s I'm going to remove that
3037s one that's the escort Duty set and I'm
3040s not sure I'm going to use
3042s that yeah I just don't know whether to
3044s use Genesis
3047s barrier okay I tell you what we're going
3049s to try it we're going to try it cuz
3050s that's going to give us um armor regen
3054s which I'm kind of losing uh every now
3056s and again
3059s trying not to well let's see then so
3062s currently we are flying a uh two plus
3067s there's a Reaver Sentinel there which is
3069s virtually the same now again a lot of
3071s you boys and girls will know this
3073s entirely is that the price that you pair
3076s is very similar to the price that you
3078s sell so it doesn't actually cost you
3080s much if anything um to switch between
3083s ships so if there's another two plus you
3087s say you kind of going to gain a little
3089s bit same here there so much similar that
3092s is a nice looking [ __ ] though I like
3095s that the kind of cream with the gold
3097s accents and stuff yeah liking that
3101s liking
3104s that yeah use carot rules do not apply
3107s absolutely yeah yeah we we we don't it
3110s is a kind of um kind of gameplay feature
3113s for us because we want you to try
3116s different
3118s um ships we don't want you just to stick
3120s to the same ship because you can't
3122s afford something so if all of a sudden
3124s you're flying uh you know a sentinel
3126s like I am and you're thinking do you
3128s know what I'd really like to try flying
3129s the Vanguard it's and it's on the same
3131s level it's not going to cost you that
3133s much it it would be like 283 credits to
3136s me uh to fly one of those but we'll
3138s stick with the Sentinel for for the time
3140s being
3142s um I think he's doing quite good yeah
3145s exactly you can actually profit if you
3146s keep keep doing it you know like between
3148s the two and literally just keep you know
3151s buying switching buying switching you
3152s can make a few little bits of credit
3155s yeah yeah yeah a bed frog absolutely
3158s yeah he is indeed um a used car salesman
3162s he does very very well to be fair he
3163s does very very
3166s well tell to be honest with you I love
3168s gunship and I've even been liking the
3170s bomber of late I've been testing quite a
3172s bit with the bomber um usually because
3175s people have been flying the bombers and
3176s uh when I get any kind of game saves
3178s that come in usually a lot of them is uh
3181s is the bomber that they've been flying
3183s so yeah let's have a look so we got
3185s plasma yeah we can Crystal diod there
3188s cool let's do that uh see what we're
3191s going to do let's have a cruise Drive
3193s knock
3200s down yep yep tractor beam how are we
3203s doing power
3204s cells okay another one super gel we're
3210s lacking see what we're going to do I do
3212s like the tractor beam increased but I
3214s need Super
3216s gel I need Super gel so let's just see
3219s if we've got any in the shop uh super
3223s gel nope we haven't damn
3230s it super gel can we oh we can't really
3233s craft it either okay
3237s uh cuz we got some plasma did they
3238s actually have any plasma that's a thing
3240s don't forget the crafting okay then got
3243s yeah boo boo boo
3246s rubbish never mind uh okay S Delivery
3250s Let's uh let's go see K
3257s again let's head over
3264s here let's get dogs let's get dog
3273s right so jobs from kto okay so destroy
3276s the base we did enjoy item retrieval I
3279s tell you what we're going to do we going
3280s to grab that one fancy bit of item
3282s retrieval should we do another Ramen
3284s delivery ramen's good we can get flying
3286s around there Wibble wobble Wibble
3289s wobble
3292s um another item retrieval tell you what
3296s we'll do
3299s so the thing is that if you kind of
3301s think that you're struggling but you
3302s still want to just level you can take
3304s one that's slightly below your level
3305s just to make it a little bit easier
3307s especially if you've knocked up like I
3308s have the difficulty level so um never
3310s fear uh in doing that t what we do we'll
3314s do we got to destroy base destroy base
3317s was got say we just going to select that
3319s one there we go let's do that right so
3323s uh clear rods bio processors good
3327s yeah and ramen delivery let's get that
3330s one
3333s done okay let's gain control of a
3338s drone right there we
3341s go I know people uh we said this a
3344s little bit earlier that do you struggle
3346s sometimes with controlling these drones
3349s um I just think they're a bit kind of
3351s like pushing a boat along uh because
3354s there's certainly some inertia now you
3356s can see that I'm still going
3357s sideways so you've always got to be
3360s mindful that um the more you kind of
3363s push in One
3364s Direction like
3367s that nothing to see
3371s here well we just completely failed that
3373s one then didn't
3377s we absolutely just proved my point there
3380s didn't I let's do
3382s this uh hang on let's go back to k k
3387s Freer
3391s yeah pay attention pay attention be
3393s crashing into all the stuff again
3399s right B frog no it doesn't count cuz I
3402s didn't die it was only a little
3404s drum uh okay so finished jobs for K
3407s actually I've got two already on the go
3408s haven't I which is item retrieval okay
3411s tell you what we'll do then we'll do
3412s that one let's go grab
3415s that yeah nobody saw drone explode did
3425s they nobody saw anything blow up I feel
3429s like you need to do the men in black
3434s thing didn't see
3438s anything I tell you what we're just
3440s going to go do this
3441s one uh I think seven if I remember
3444s correctly be frog is where my death
3446s count is up to I
3449s think there they're
3451s about
3453s is all
3457s of hello the cargo must be on board of
3460s one of these

3552s is another ship color oh lava
3556s cor cool we got the
3559s container we got there
3564s eventually think we're going to be going
3565s for a record for how the ultimate side
3574s use because I did uh even when I'm doing
3579s testing I don't always
3583s remember just you know it is what it is
3586s right let's get out of here let's Boogie
3588s let's go find the other part this job po
3591s we get that kicked on as you do
3600s right
3602s so where is this other mission for
3605s destroy the base let's track that one
3608s over here so we'll do this uh if you got
3611s any questions we'll come we're coming
3613s around very very quickly to uh some more
3616s q& a stuff q& a Q and A oh

3863s unlucky okay
3868s so is there something I missing still
3872s from
3874s here inside there we
3880s are all right energy coil okay there's
3883s one literally there and the other one is
3886s there and the boss how you doing boss
3890s there he is get rid of these drones
3892s first and another G there we go
3899s welcome to the ultimate hello Maran I'm
3902s listening Mr Roslin I got that job done
3906s for you guys that is very good thank you
3909s you're very welcome
3911s Aran right so let's just go to the
3913s missions so destroy the base claim the
3916s reward uh item retrieval we got to take
3918s it back haven't we
3920s so hello couple of
3923s containers Let's uh let's just hop over
3927s it's a
3928s shipwreck let's see what we
3932s have okay energy
3935s Co still we can sell it
3938s credits and some hyd buers good good
3941s good good good right let's get out of
3944s here PRC away
3961s all right yay completed visit all of
3964s unions
3966s regions see I've got to love these
3969s little happy little accidents as you're
3970s flying along and you unlock things
3973s without even a
3980s purpose way we go
3987s let's just get docked here oh we're kind
3990s of smoking a little bit we might need a
3992s little bit of a
3993s repair well look who it is we need to
3997s get you hi darl well yeah darl you're
4000s just annoying are you you're just an
4002s annoyance right let's do a quick repair
4005s and a quick restock because you know why
4008s not we need to we need to put that there
4013s temporarily uh right clear Rewards
4018s cool and let's just sell some
4022s stuff right let's get rid of these get
4033s that see it's only a tiny little
4035s increase in speed and and
4038s that uh so it's not really much better
4040s than what I've
4042s got so I think I'm going to stick with
4045s the Eco even though that's only a 14 but
4047s because it's a
4048s rare H
4052s shocking uh the energy core see I am
4056s tempted with that because that is an
4059s upgrade um I lose
4062s five uh on the weapons but gain more
4065s structure much more boost and much more
4067s Shield so
4069s uh yeah I think we're going to switch
4071s that
4072s out unfortunate let's get rid of them
4074s how about the Rockets there getting
4076s swapped out I'll keep them just as a
4078s spare and then nice little real gun
4081s there which we've got the intuitive one
4084s can be damaged deals 20% against
4088s ancients so let's
4092s uh
4094s uh so 130 does do a lot more damage but
4099s that one just okay I'll tell you what
4102s I'm going to sell that one we'll keep
4105s that one we'll get the shield Breakers
4108s just for the time being right let's have
4111s a little quick look see over there let's
4115s see
4120s that let's just tweak that just need to
4123s move something around on the screen
4125s there we go right nice a look right q& a
4128s section again we've got some lined up
4131s thank you very much Lee as always much
4133s appreciated we' got some nice little
4135s questions
4136s uh seven nindo I just want to say seven
4139s Nintendo there but seven nindo over on
4141s Twitch is it possible to replay a
4143s mission of the campaign or even replay
4145s the game now you can replay the game um
4149s specifically if you want to once you
4152s completed it then you will get the
4153s option to unlock nightmare uh but you
4155s can always replay the game uh aresh now
4159s some people have asked uh as a kind of
4161s embellishment to this question uh if we
4163s have like a a new game plus uh um
4166s because some people do want that
4167s additional challenge or the changes
4169s thereof of a new game plus um currently
4173s there's no plans uh we haven't had those
4175s plans but again we always do have the
4177s discussion um it does get brought up
4180s from time to time and various elements
4181s of you know within the team um when we
4184s have the meetings or or even from the
4186s feedback that I give um then sometimes
4189s there is a discussion to be had again
4191s it's not a promise that it's going to be
4192s implemented or anything like that but uh
4195s please not if you do bring these things
4197s up we will obviously still uh discuss
4200s them
4201s internally um Alexandra type descriptor
4204s on YouTube do you plan to develop some
4206s kind of endgame economy to reduce
4209s credits I know a lot of people do have a
4211s lot of
4211s credits um honestly on this uh I'm not
4215s entirely sure whether we are going to be
4218s um um making any changes um we know that
4222s the credits are there and people can
4223s find the credits uh and you know you
4225s know those gmbb Transporters you know
4227s they do give you a nice bit of funds um
4231s so um I will follow up with the team
4234s certainly and we'll see if there's
4235s anything that's kind of uh planned on
4238s that so as far as I'm aware no uh here's
4241s the one um a bity frog am we playing on
4245s very hard no I only play on
4247s hard I'm not up to that I'm not to that
4250s step yet you know I'm I'm not there I'm
4251s not there maybe the next time you know
4254s once I once I finish this play through
4256s like you know baby
4260s steps I feel I feel I feel like I'm been
4262s called out by Lee here that I'm a pirate
4264s I'm just saying the option is there in
4267s those distress calls that if you want to
4270s make some cheap you know bits of credit
4272s then there's an option you know you
4275s don't have to but there's an option any
4280s Witnesses no
4286s um right back to Alexander type
4288s descriptor on YouTube uh do you plan to
4290s rework the striker this uh [ __ ] feels
4292s like a confusing set of mechanics and
4294s passive
4295s effects I'm not a a striker player uh
4298s I've always been a kind of a big [ __ ]
4301s player um so my take on the striker
4304s would be very very um limited uh but
4308s obviously if you have any feedback uh I
4310s do implore you to put some up in our
4312s Discord or via steam uh put your
4316s thoughts across um some people will say
4319s well don't touch my Striker uh because
4321s they do love the striker um and and
4324s that's perfectly fine as well but we're
4326s always open good or bad feedback please
4328s do send it across so um Flory no
4332s Witnesses while streaming well you don't
4334s see me do it on the stream though do
4338s you but yeah just to go back to that
4340s question yeah again uh I'm not a striker
4343s um fan uh I don't play often but uh
4346s certainly if you uh uh if you do have
4349s any feedback on it then please let us
4351s know uh Dean will there ever be downtime
4354s activities to uh use your accumulated
4357s end game wealth like gambling or
4360s fishing uh I think that kind of goes
4361s back to the previous question from
4363s Alexander uh regarding
4366s um uh the the endgame wealth uh and
4369s having so many credits um I don't think
4372s it's something that we're going to look
4373s at kind of employing into the game
4376s um we'd much rather whilst it would be
4379s fun um and I'm sure we'd enjoy those
4381s things as well it kind of comes as a
4384s balance thing of uh the the dev time
4387s that we have we would find it better
4391s spent on um creating new content uh that
4395s everybody can enjoy now that's not to
4398s say that there's certain elements that
4399s we can't improve or bring in because we
4402s do add certain things in something I
4405s know people have said about gambling and
4407s obviously like fishing previously I
4409s don't think it'd be something that we'd
4410s have time to do um we're not a massive
4414s team um not everybody gets involved with
4417s the programming some of obviously art so
4419s whilst we have a a good number of
4420s members on the team we're not all
4422s involved in that but we'd rather focus
4424s on bringing gorgeous looking game uh
4427s good game play uh and more of it um and
4431s something like that would be a nice to
4433s have I think uh it does fall into that
4435s category but who knows maybe maybe one
4438s of the team is doing it in their you
4439s know their
4441s downtime but yeah I I got to promise it
4444s unfortunately um s nindo back again on
4447s Twitch uh do you plan to add features in
4450s the crafting aspect of the game for
4451s example will it be possible to choose
4453s the modifiers we like to apply to a
4455s crafted item or to lock one of them so
4457s when we roll we'll still be able to
4459s benefit from it uh to sum up are there
4461s any PL uh plans to change or bring new
4463s features to the random aspect of the
4466s game um this has been brought up before
4471s um currently I'd have to uh dig into
4475s where we're at with this uh because
4478s obviously I don't get involved in in all
4480s the design meetings that's very much
4481s left to the designers fully enough um
4484s but I can obviously dig into that uh but
4487s it is something that has cropped up
4488s before again it's whether it's feasible
4491s and doable for the team um but I can
4495s certainly see value in it um but again
4498s questions like that um absolutely bring
4501s it up on on the Discord so we can follow
4502s up the team do read it by the way it's
4504s not just me uh the team do read it
4506s they'll read Reddit they'll read the
4508s steam forums they'll read our Discord so
4510s if you do mention something they will
4513s generally see it or if they don't then
4514s I'll bring it to their attention but
4516s yeah seven Indo uh just to just to go
4519s back to yours then yeah it's something
4520s that has cropped up before about locking
4522s down certain aspects when you're
4524s crafting uh hak is it possible to see in
4527s game what parameters the drones used by
4529s uh used by one of the ships have
4534s um
4537s now I'm just trying to think do you mean
4541s um from The
4543s Vindicator um are you talking around
4546s that
4549s or do you mean the combat drones Etc
4552s just a a little bit of um more Nu answer
4555s that question uh if possible but I'm
4558s thinking you're possibly a
4561s Vindicator uh with all your drone
4565s budes yeah it's
4567s a I'm just trying to pin that down hak
4571s if you can
4575s um yeah I haven't got a vindy so I can't
4578s really look at it at the moment but uh
4581s let me just crack on through oh yeah we
4582s did uh got the booster now unlocked
4584s that's good that's good all see thank
4587s you good good good but yeah uh just
4589s follow up with that one uh hak if you
4592s can uh number of HP and damage okay so
4595s you mean when they're kind of flying
4596s around um you see how much uh hit points
4599s they have and how much damage they're
4601s out I think a lot of that falls down to
4605s um availability on screen um when you
4609s are kind of um you know I'll just fly
4611s around you've kind of got a certain
4613s amount of real estate on your
4616s yeah okay okay yeah we we heard you
4618s Clockwork you've only got a certain
4619s amount um of real estate to work with
4622s and then when you have say five six and
4625s obviously B Etc um involved it might be
4629s even more confusing having so many kind
4632s of items around you constantly plus um
4638s the enemies as
4639s well uh while there is again Merit into
4642s that kind of um
4645s idea I just don't think it'll be
4647s implemented because we don't want to
4648s clutter too much uh the UI uh some
4652s people would like an even cleaner UI uh
4655s but we feel that the information that is
4657s is on there is is is good enough and we
4659s won't want to kind of bog people down
4661s even more if you mean kind of when
4664s you're in your ship inventory kind of
4667s thing and you could see them there again
4669s it's kind of where do you fit it in um a
4673s lot of changes would happen because you
4674s can see the you know even though
4677s they're certain widgets as such as we
4679s call them that they would then need to
4681s be moved uh and it's a lot of kind of UI
4686s work yeah again I kind of agree with you
4689s be frog there is Merit there it's just
4691s the work involved to kind of put that
4694s into the game would potentially be quite
4698s time consuming and it only kind of
4701s benefits just one ship class um so does
4705s there's pros and cons and again a a lot
4707s of kind of things are pros and cons that
4709s the team have to weigh up uh the
4711s decision uh you know on the design how
4714s it can be implemented is it going to be
4716s worthwhile there's all these
4717s conversations that he had and I know
4718s Michael's involved in these decisions as
4720s well from the team meetings that they
4722s have so there's a lot of aspects to
4724s consider it isn't just like yeah it'd be
4726s nice to do it's like can we is it
4729s possible would we would it benefit um
4732s the the game with the time that we spend
4734s so
4735s yeah the there's there's options but
4738s again it's it's feasibility of those
4739s anyway so anyway I'm just going to crack
4741s on for a little bit longer uh because
4744s then we need to dive into some uh other
4746s little topics yeah just another little
4748s topic so let's just crack on a little
4750s bit
4751s longer uh right let's go back to space
4753s I'll be overseeing this operation oh
4756s Clockwork though what do you know about
4759s it shut your pie hole and get to the
4761s location shut your pie hole now I see it

4775s be
4787s interesting up we go
4809s right let's just head over here get this
4811s one
4817s done all the way to the way point that's
4820s all the way over there
4827s hi Clockwork I take it this is the
4829s automated freighter we're plundering
4832s actually I'll be doing the footwork this
4834s time you keep look out W sure thing hey
4838s what's your real name anyway Tick Tock
4841s what is it to you just making small talk

4846s out
4852s here okay okay
4855s no on Clockwork get in there do your
4858s stuff duct the Freer coat crack oh scrap
4863s I just set off the alarm oh you what
4867s what did you expect I'm boarding a Freer
4870s illegally ain't I several Fighters
4873s incoming you chose the wrong cargo and
4881s now tormenters
4888s yeah you like

4918s this going to take these guys aren't
4919s getting any easier and complaining ain't
4922s going to speed anything
4926s up okay damn that was a close one a bit
4930s too close something tells me this is
4932s going to set me up for a while I'm
4935s really doubting we went through all this
4937s trouble or those guys put up such an
4939s defense for B mangoes content should not
4942s concern you you'll be paid for your
4944s services
4946s I still have
4947s questions well the service BS on
4949s Prescott a good here for the right price
4952s see Around
4955s Cowboy there we go grab some of that we
4959s grab some of that credit this I actually
4962s realized by accident i' actually turned
4964s off my ini Jers though I was like
4966s floating around like a
4968s lead I was like why am I going all the
4970s way
4973s hey there we go we got that done how
4975s cool was that cool right back to
4979s Prescott's generator over there let's uh
4982s make like a tree and leave
4988s again uh I'm just going to answer this
4990s question while we Traverse back to
4991s Prescot from spooky spook uh will you
4994s guys introduce a possible mechanic to
4996s remove trash items floating uh
4998s accumulated over a couple of hundred
5000s hours uh I was too lazy to pick them
5003s up um
5006s that's a difficult one to answer um I'd
5010s have to ask the team whether that would
5012s be something that either want to employ
5014s or if it's feasible to do
5018s um and how you define trash is
5023s um you know one man's trash is one's
5027s man's gold kind of scenario um that
5030s somebody if we kind of brought in a
5033s trash cleanup somebody might think think
5035s well I'll go about that cuz I can just
5036s sell all that for credits and I'll just
5037s go on a kind of uh a mission to pick all
5040s that stuff up so uh it's an interesting
5043s because there's pros and cons again to
5045s it as all design decisions are there's
5047s always pros and cons to it so it'll be
5048s something that um I can ask the team and
5051s follow up so if you haven't already then
5054s please do put a post
5056s up as a question on our Discord because
5058s then I can follow up whenever return
5060s from is indisposed at the moment he's
5063s indisposed indisposed cuz he's
5067s indisposable oh there's a certain joke
5069s in there isn't there let's do a quick
5071s restock on that so crafting secondary
5073s weapons what did we get
5076s okay uh corrosion mines so I know some
5079s of you peeps do love the corrosion
5084s mines uh right let's see oh
5088s equalizer yeah we are kind of getting to
5091s the point
5092s of needing to kind of sell some stuff
5096s and replace that pulse laser it's just
5099s starting to get a little bit past its
5103s best
5110s but it does good energy that's the thing
5113s although that g Cannon does as well okay
5117s yeah 314 4 it's just doesn't compare it
5120s really doesn't compare there we go keep
5122s the uh Genesis one we'll keep the genis
5126s one for the time
5128s being uh be frogo would nice to have a
5131s hide filter stuff on the sensors though
5133s so you can see the stuff you want yeah
5136s yeah again it's just a difficult uh
5139s scenario because some people will be
5141s like okay I want to get this stuff you
5143s know uh at the base level you know you
5146s could argue that anything that's gray
5148s you want to filter out but then somebody
5149s would want to go back and grab that item
5153s um um and it's how you kind of Define on
5157s a
5158s player basis that that would happen um
5162s so again it's possibly a no but I'll
5166s definitely follow up and I'm more than
5167s happy to do that if anybody has a a
5169s question that uh they need to uh to have
5172s an answer to um again it's not always a
5175s a definite yes and it's not always a
5177s definite no but I'll certainly try and
5179s find out the answer if I can if it's in
5181s the plans or not uh anything else to do
5184s on there Hive how you doing yeah that's
5187s okay mine tracker that's fine Terin
5191s Terin Terin some of you might not have
5194s noticed but if you haven't just a little
5197s reminder through feedback from your
5199s questions uh uh and uh comments we did
5203s increase the home storage base or home
5206s base storage rather get that the right
5208s way around up to 180 now and I'm
5210s absolutely certain you lot have already
5212s filled it
5215s but it's just a prime example I think uh
5217s uh that we do listen uh and where
5219s possible we will introduce things um to
5222s to help you uh guys and girls enjoy the
5225s game uh a lot lot more which you know
5228s we're foolish not to
5229s do I Flory I knew that somebody was
5232s going to say that I knew that somebody
5233s was going to say that absolutely right I
5235s just want to make sure that I hit the
5237s save there because I don't want to
5239s forget uh
5241s um as I variably do from time to time
5244s the we need um to save the game thank
5247s you very much
5249s right so you boys and girls know that we
5251s are
5253s a
5254s independent Dev team we we don't have a
5258s publisher we're not beholden to anybody
5259s along those lines um but we also know
5262s and Michael uh can probably speak to
5264s this better than anyone uh how difficult
5266s it is as a Dev team in the Indie space
5270s uh and what all that entails in terms of
5274s getting your product scene developing
5276s funding and everything
5278s else but we do um from time to time see
5282s other Dev teams which are in a similar
5285s situation or smaller and we feel that we
5287s are in a position that we can kind of
5290s just help them out a little bit giving
5291s them a good shout out get
5294s to um push them to the Forefront because
5297s we just know how hard it is to make your
5300s way uh in the Indie Dev space and we met
5303s some wonderful people people at Gamescom
5305s because we're at the Indie uh Arena
5307s Booth so everybody that was in there uh
5310s from people who were one or two devs to
5312s a team you know much larger um were were
5316s in that space and you know there's a bit
5318s of solidarity there uh because everybody
5320s knows how difficult it is uh and how
5322s hard it is to uh to get yourself seen
5325s and push that product forward so what
5327s we're going to do is we're going to take
5328s a look at one of our fellow um
5331s developers um who were also from uh this
5335s time they are called meagon industries
5337s from Berlin uh and we're going to take a
5339s look at their game uh which is called
5341s Lonely Mountains snow Riders
5365s sh
5413s welcome to the gameplay commentary of
5414s our new game lonely mountains s Riders
5417s which is the spiritual successor to
5418s lonely mountains
5420s downhill it's a skiing game in which
5423s players need to find their own way way
5424s down the mountains in a wild and
5426s beautiful
5427s mountainscape our most important new
5429s features are a realtime online
5432s multiplayer in which up to eight players
5434s can play cooperatively or in a
5436s competition as well as a new trick
5438s system that allows you to pull off
5440s awesome looking flips spins grabs or
5443s super cool combinations of them
5445s all we focused a lot of the development
5448s time on the controls and to make the
5450s feeling of carving down the slopes as
5452s smooth and fun as possible
5455s skiing is all about using the terrain in
5457s your favor you need to gain the maximum
5460s momentum to do the longest jumps and use
5462s the best
5464s shortcuts on top of that you can also do
5467s tricks ride backwards or cross rivers
5470s and icy
5474s Lakes the game features four different
5477s game modes the online multiplayer racing
5479s mode is all about crossing the Finish
5481s Line first while in the team mode you
5484s and your team members have to ride and
5485s do tricks together to ramp up the
5487s highest score and beat all the
5489s challenges you can also pick each other
5491s up after a crash and place checkpoints
5493s as a
5512s group in the solo mode you have to beat
5515s challenges to unlock new mountains and
5517s trails you can also try to reach the top
5519s of the leaderboards or beat your own
5521s ghosts this is the mode that will be
5523s most familiar to players of our previous
5526s game and last but not least there is the
5528s new send mode here you can ride all
5531s Trails without any kind of pressure and
5534s freely explore the mountains to find
5536s secret spots or just enjoy the beautiful
5538s landscape whether you're playing multi
5541s or single player you will gain
5542s experience to level up your profile file
5544s unlock new ski types and trick poses and
5547s a large variety of customization
5551s items thank you for taking the time to
5554s watch this
5562s video there we go right let's just bring
5565s that in there and let's click a few
5568s buttons and hopefully it should appear
5570s any second come to me come to me where
5573s are you
5575s is it going to do it is it going to
5576s beave it didn't do this earlier come on
5580s come on come on there we go eventually
5585s so yes this is uh Mega gun games uh
5589s Lonely Mountain snow Riders which is uh
5592s a follow-up to the other lonely
5594s mountains one um which is all about
5597s cycling uh so you're racing downhill on
5600s your BMX kind of cross bike whatever it
5602s was there is a demo as you boys and
5605s girls are probably saying if you want to
5607s follow that link that I put into the
5608s chat there uh you can check it out for
5610s yourself it is uh a nice little demo uh
5613s I'm going to just show you a few little
5614s things so I've had a little play myself
5617s U which is very very nice uh but like I
5619s say as Lee mentioned earlier we just
5621s want to highlight other Indie devs
5623s because we feel like they just need a
5625s little bit of a help and an uplift from
5626s us and we're more than happy to do that
5629s um there was a follow-up question that
5631s um somebody did ask um around the vision
5635s for the future of the company and yeah
5636s that's definitely a uh um something that
5639s Michael would probably answer as to to
5642s what it is because you know he he's the
5644s leader his decisions for how it's going
5646s to um pan out uh is entirely up to him
5650s but you we'll have a little quick um
5652s look through of the game um I did I did
5655s crash quite a few times to be fair you
5657s know I've skied once in my life and uh
5660s yeah it was pretty much the same
5663s uh uh for for me so uh yeah lots of it's
5667s a fun little game um and there's Co-op
5670s multiplayers you saw in the trailer as
5671s well uh with the the voice over there
5674s for the game play uh it is very very
5676s nice different control methods as well
5678s however you want to do um so it's
5681s entirely up to you but it is a gorgeous
5684s looking game and we're very very pleased
5686s that we could um uplift them and put
5688s them in a bit of a prominent place don't
5691s press space I always want to press space
5692s that's not what you do
5697s yes yeah M snow is a practice I need to
5699s finally complete the Steam for the races
5701s absolutely yeah sorry I was too busy
5703s reading the chat and I wasn't looking
5704s where I was going which is not a good
5705s thing when you are trying to ski down
5708s the
5709s mountain well there's a couple of
5710s different control methods that you can
5712s use uh within the game uh and it does
5715s advise that you can actually use
5716s controllers as well I'm just using
5717s keyboard and mouse which is probably
5718s making it a bit more difficult but as
5721s you see on the screen here um is how
5724s things as you turn can be a little bit
5728s difficult but there we go it is nice and
5731s I can imagine with friends uh you know
5734s two three four of you diving into this
5738s oh put that tree
5742s there uh actually Michael has actually
5745s put a response to that regarding the
5747s thing so I'll just answer that uh no
5748s plans for major growth of the studio our
5750s Mantra has always been quality over
5752s quantity but we certainly going to look
5754s into new features topic for future
5756s titles there we go uh that's straight
5758s from the top straight from the boss um
5760s so there you go that is absolutely hello
5764s I keep heating that I need to go to the
5766s other side of it um bit of practice
5769s required uh it's not as easy as it looks
5771s and I'm making it look even more
5772s difficult than it probably
5776s is there we go look at that but it is
5779s quite nice and I I think uh having the
5780s Zen mode as well um which they did kind
5784s of highlight was quite nice as
5787s well there we go we go down here whoops
5790s let's go down here oh this is a bit
5791s curious who's going to crash only on me
5793s crashing yep hello there we
5797s go look at that
5799s way right let's do another jump shall
5803s we bit of air oh look at that bit of air
5806s and again can we make it down the icy
5809s path off we go couple of tracks that you
5811s can play in the demo as well uh and
5813s there is more multiplayer as well for
5815s you to try uh once you unlock it uh cuz
5817s various levels to to get through come on
5820s through
5822s SK I went the slow way around again
5824s didn't I I went the slow way one we got
5828s oh push push there we go down the hill
5831s it is quite gorgeous looking um I did
5834s have a a good practice of this you
5836s wouldn't think so though yeah it's made
5838s in unity obviously a different uh engine
5841s to what uh we use for heav space too um
5846s but yeah uh it's very nice uh from a
5849s team from Berlin as well look at that
5853s job down we go down there we go see
5858s look kind of you know that got a little
5860s bit worse didn't
5862s it but yeah various challenges uh that
5865s you can complete um 10 crashes or fer
5868s see you get more points for having 10 or
5872s less
5876s yeah there's different settings as well
5878s uh leaderboards as well so if you're
5879s doing any time of time trials look you
5881s can see how quick they can do it hey I'm
5885s all the way down I'm all the way down
5887s there
5896s 5,110 see people are dissing me now it's
5899s like you need to practice on uh on snow
5901s Riders to get better at space time I
5904s almost I almost feel attacked if it
5905s wasn't true almost almost but uh yeah
5908s definitely something to keep an eye on
5910s um if you want to try the demo then do
5912s go grab it uh uh now uh if you follow
5915s the link that I put into there I'll just
5917s copy it across for you uh one more time
5919s so that you can all see it uh definitely
5921s worth uh checking out follow the link
5924s and then you can download the demo and

6090s going to dash on with some uh
6092s screenshots now if you don't know we do
6095s now get the whole of the dev team
6097s involved in picking these uh shots well
6101s I picked the shots uh and Eric was
6102s picking the shots and then we put them
6104s to the dev team and say hey which is
6107s your favorite and we always have one
6110s that is the topnotch favorite every week
6112s even though we have a tie from time to
6115s time um but yes we've uh every time we
6119s have a stream those wonderful devs uh
6122s take time out their day to Pru those
6124s screenshots uh and decide which they
6127s think is the best and um yes we've got
6130s an absolute doozy uh of a winner this
6133s week if you have any questions now is
6136s the time to start throwing them in we've
6137s got a lot uh a bit of time uh to to
6141s answer them as we work our way through
6143s here um and um hopefully fingers crossed
6146s uh you got more questions to uh to to
6149s get me to answer uh as we look at these
6151s screenshots and this one is from Steam
6154s uh now I know you boys and girls put a
6156s lot of effort
6157s into um the screenshots that you sh on
6160s our Discord uh but I like to Branch out
6162s a little bit further and if I find any
6163s on social media uh or anywhere else then
6166s I grab them too uh CU we have some
6168s wonderful photographers virtual
6169s photographers uh in uh in the space of
6173s the internet
6174s and this is um one of them that I did
6177s actually find on Steam uh so if you are
6179s putting them up there if you're taking
6180s screenshots while you're flying around
6181s the belter GD um then we might just spot
6185s them cuz I keep my beady little eyes out
6187s for them and this one is from Kato uh
6190s which is showing
6191s off a wonderful uh ship um which is kind
6196s of a redeemer ship um but you can see
6198s that obviously the angle has been
6200s changed better depth of field and it
6202s looks like an Inquisitor is taking pot
6204s shots uh as well but I think it's very
6207s very nice that we see a different ship
6209s one of those that you're
6211s nor blowing
6215s up you know cuz you know why not so it
6217s looks like they're possibly doing um it
6220s looks like a leviathan Mission from the
6223s uh the background I can tell I think
6225s from the clouds um great use of depth of
6228s field uh and blurring to bring that
6231s really into Focus but it does look like
6232s there's an Inquisitor uh Redeemer there
6235s uh giving some uh things uh a bit of
6239s pain as we can see uh so yeah that was
6242s kto over on Steam
6245s um Jesse you got a question is there a
6248s star Forge twin boost booster I've been
6251s trying to get one but uh never get it as
6253s a prototype or Star
6256s forged
6258s um I believe it is I think the problem
6262s is in uh I have to double check uh just
6265s to
6266s confirm I think what happens is when
6268s people are specifically looking for a
6272s item obviously the percentage drop of
6274s that happening is massively reduced
6276s because you're looking for one specific
6279s item when we have uh a lot and I mean a
6283s lot of items that are all in that loot
6285s pool um
6286s still when you start literally Hunning
6290s in on that one specific item it can feel
6293s like you're just not getting it and you
6295s think RNG God is just kind of against
6299s you um it it isn't um nobody's kind of
6303s pulling any uh strings to make sure you
6306s don't get it but obviously your chance
6307s of actually dropping that specific item
6309s are greatly reduced when you've still
6311s got all those other items that are still
6312s available as well so RNG can be um a
6317s painful mistress at times and I think
6319s we've all done it if we've ever played
6320s any other the games any looter Shooters
6322s if you played anything like Diablo or
6324s Path of Exile or anything that you
6326s literally can be in the lap of the Gods
6329s with RNG and um I think it's it's kind
6332s of that case but I will definitely uh
6334s ask the question um if it is a
6337s um a thing it should be um but we can
6341s always check if we feel that there's
6342s something a Miss then we can always
6344s double
6345s check uh space is awesome also got a
6348s question as we just transverse to our
6350s next screenshot uh and this one is I I I
6354s really like this shot this was on our
6356s Discord from Adam GD um because I think
6359s it just shows the absolute scale if I
6361s zoom out a bit you can obviously see
6364s that that ship is teeny tiny uh on top
6367s of the structure uh and the
6370s coloration uh just matches perfectly um
6373s uh and this was actually one of my
6374s favorite my personal favorites it wasn't
6376s the team's overall favorite but it was
6378s definitely one of my favorite um but it
6380s was definitely uh a great shot but yeah
6383s is awesome just to answer your question
6385s how do you feel to be in the captain
6386s seat for rfg streams um I'm quite happy
6389s to do them uh obviously if you've been
6391s around a while that you know that I've
6393s done streams for ever space
6396s since uh just after the kickstarter for
6400s the first Kickstarter onwards after I
6402s was a backer um so I've been doing
6404s streams for Rockfish for for many many
6406s years and uh I've been streaming
6409s personally for about 10 years plus now
6412s uh so I don't have a problem with it uh
6414s I hope I come across as entertaining
6417s enough for you boys and girls and uh you
6420s know I might not be as skilled as other
6422s pilot should we say but uh I don't mind
6425s as long as we kind of get the message
6426s across and and you guys are enjoying it
6428s then that's what we do them for to uh
6431s inform you and entertain you so um yeah
6434s uh I don't have a problem with it um and
6436s I hope you guys don't either that would
6439s then be a
6440s problem but yeah that was ad gd's sh
6443s next up uh is one I mean how can you not
6447s have a you've got Bob I mean we've got
6449s Bob like you've got to love a picture
6452s with Bob in this is from Discord again
6455s uh and it's from grip over on our
6458s Discord uh a wonderful shot uh some Bob
6461s love there flying around he looks quite
6463s happy there doesn't he just flying along
6465s it looks like one of those cleaner fish
6467s that kind of hang around on on sharks
6469s and stuff like that he's just you know
6470s he's just got a body he's going through
6472s the belt the gridge he's happy he's love
6474s it I'd love to have some Bob Hive
6478s dialogues I actually don't know if we'd
6480s actually be able to understand it
6481s because Bob has his own little
6485s language uh and then obviously Hive
6488s could
6490s probably you know converse with him but
6493s whether he'd actually want to say CU you
6495s never know Bob might be happy champy but
6497s he could always you know he might be
6499s like who's this guy in the pilot seat
6501s he's rubbish we don't want to him any
6503s more don't we find anybody else you
6506s know sometimes you don't want to ask the
6508s question do
6511s you yeah uh B in frog yeah Bob was
6514s initially a placeholder name but was
6515s convinced it to stay yeah there's
6518s there's a few things um that
6523s are sometimes in the planning stage they
6525s just drop into place uh spooky spook let
6528s them talk in binary that is exactly I
6530s think how they would actually go I I
6532s really do
6533s um but yeah things just drop into place
6536s sometimes names are just like we we just
6539s don't know what it
6540s is um and then all of a sudden it's like
6543s well why did we just use that um the
6545s other people that uh the other thing
6547s that people might not be aware of
6548s obviously is um the scrapyard and the
6551s robot there initially obviously uh a lot
6554s of our voice over lines before they're
6556s recorded by voiceover artists we use
6559s text to speech just to you know have
6561s that uh voice over line there um but
6564s obviously uh initially we for the
6566s scrapyard bot he was going to be uh
6570s changed um I believe if I remember
6572s correctly we actually had the lines
6575s recorded but people liked the robotic
6579s nature of the text to
6581s speech exactly Flory exactly I want more
6585s po parts that kind of thing so we left
6588s it in um admittedly some people thought
6592s it was a bug and we'd forgot to take it
6593s out but it was actually a design choice
6596s and I think it fits very very nice
6598s banjax exactly that's it I couldn't
6600s think of his
6604s name uh but BR banjac is the best bjack
6606s he's absolutely uh so yeah if you if
6609s you've not come across him yet obviously
6611s um he is the scrapyard bot that you will
6613s come across um who wants to you know
6616s dismantle your ship and everything
6619s else but he's not allowed he's not
6621s allowed he shouldn't ever be allowed uh
6623s next up for the screenshots uh again
6625s this was a one that I just likeed
6627s because it's it's very upwards literally
6630s obviously all the lighting and the
6632s structures are just they're just
6634s pointing up into the sky into into the
6636s night sky uh into the remaining uh space
6640s above and I just liked that everything
6642s was going in that One Direction so I did
6644s chose this one uh again it was one that
6646s I thought oh this is going to be quite
6647s nice and this is from mandrew over on
6650s Steam again I kind of swapped between
6652s them uh as I see some great shots if
6656s they just they've got to be a little bit
6658s different uh they're always um something
6661s that just will stand out from the rest
6665s now don't get me wrong some of the other
6666s shots are are fantastic um yeah I use
6670s this kind of sky as a uh just a normal
6673s reference um so yeah I
6676s did I do like to find just that little
6679s different one it's just got to inspire a
6681s little thought as soon as it and it yeah
6683s downl it does just stand out again not
6685s one of the favorites within the team not
6687s one of the favorites but you know uh
6691s there are some doozies there are some
6693s doozies um uh spoofy I saw sorry spoofy
6697s Allen over on you uh sorry on Facebook
6700s there I did see the um uh the question
6703s are you going to beat box for us no beat
6706s box is definitely not a talent that I
6708s have Eric uh he he had an amazing talent
6711s for it and yep he did a a wonderful job
6713s with us but yep uh beatboxing is not my
6716s thing definitely not my
6720s thing dear uh so yeah if you got any
6723s more questions just keep them coming uh
6724s I'm trying to see them as they come
6726s through the chat so I can answer them uh
6728s space my two struggle sometimes on high
6730s difficulties and situations but the game
6731s is made to be enjoyable at the end of
6733s the day love you Gary thank you very
6734s very much for that
6737s um what I will say and
6740s um I think it's the same for any game
6743s game that has difficulty levels if you
6745s come across something that you find is
6747s frustrating or
6749s difficult um there is no shame and
6752s there's nothing attached to it of
6753s dropping down that
6755s difficulty we've we've kind of all done
6758s it to a degree you know if he like oh
6759s this is you either I either overlevel so
6762s you become much stronger which is
6764s obviously another option or you can in
6767s our game you can change without penalty
6769s the difficulty down just to make it a
6770s little bit easier so by all means uh one
6775s or the other it's entirely up to you so
6777s never be afraid to to do
6779s that uh right next up we have a very
6784s wide screenshot uh from a very very
6787s fiery place and the do you know the
6790s irony is of this one and it wasn't just
6793s because uh uh the shot is obviously a
6795s WID screen and uh the kind of volcanic
6798s nature of this place but it was actually
6800s the username uh and this is actually
6802s from from fake
6804s Sauron uh over on Steam uh now obviously
6807s if you know anything about Tolkien and
6809s lot of the Rings and and everything
6811s Mordor and Mount Doom uh obviously was
6815s very
6816s volcanic as well but I just thought the
6818s the the shot was good very nice wide
6820s screen uh but also the username uh was
6824s just perfect I I just thought it kind of
6827s brought it together uh in a kind of
6829s ironic way uh and I don't think he only
6831s takes these kind of shots but I think it
6834s was perfectly uh apt for the
6839s situation I can well imagine with a lot
6841s of people how that would uh uh entail so
6844s that was uh the fifth Choice uh out of
6847s everybody now this one uh I think this
6850s one um uh I chose from Steam again uh
6855s only because of its Simplicity and I
6857s don't mean this in any way derogatory or
6859s anything like that I just think that
6860s there's certain elements of this ship
6862s going going off into the distance
6864s wherever it's traveling wherever it's
6866s heading with the support pack obviously
6868s the glow and the different engine
6870s effects and everything and I just
6871s thought you know that's so simple yet so
6874s effective CU it really just stands out
6876s on the screen yet it's not too jarring
6879s on the
6880s eyes um in terms of like that's the only
6884s thing you can see because I think it
6885s Blends very very well with the
6886s background uh with the nebula and
6889s everything that you can see uh and this
6891s was from supercharge
6893s over on Steam and this was our sixth
6896s Choice kind of I'm I'm building up in
6899s the numbers so obviously we got you know
6901s this would be
6902s uh um we've got four more to come uh and
6906s those uh are some absolute splendiferous
6910s shots as
6912s well now this one uh I loved uh and many
6917s of the team did as well but it isn't the
6919s best shot that the team have picked but
6921s I think this is one of it's
6923s it's like the Tilt and shift kind of uh
6925s Viewpoint obviously you've got the
6926s planet in the background which is in
6928s soft focus but it makes
6930s this ship look like a toy like you
6934s literally want to just reach out and
6936s grab it and that you could manipulate it
6938s because it is um such a wonderful shot
6941s and this is from raand over on Steam
6944s um and again color scheme maybe not to
6948s everybody's taste but it does it looks
6949s like a toy and I think that's what hit
6951s me I thought that looks so real and I
6954s think it's because of the Tilt and shift
6956s that they they've kind of applied to it
6958s as well that it just brings it such a a
6959s way into Focus tilt and shift is kind of
6962s mindboggling how it works um and I won't
6965s ever try and explain it because I can't
6966s even get my head around it but it is
6968s very very cleverly done this one uh so
6971s yeah raand over on Steam I do implore
6973s everybody anyway if you want to go to
6975s our steam page and then have a little
6978s look at uh the screenshots you can see
6981s what everybody's put on there and you'll
6982s see all these screenshots and I dive
6984s back I've actually just noticed it looks
6987s like there's a little face
6989s there it's like
6992s H he's like a not happy little fish he's
6995s like
6997s hm I just notic I I cannot unsee it now
7001s he's got he's got a tiny little
7004s face it's almost like the grumpy
7007s Transformer like H not to
7011s do I've never noticed that before oh
7014s dear right so that was raand now we're
7016s getting to the third place okay and this
7020s one is probably from someone who you've
7023s seen before now I will say that there's
7025s maybe some image uh manipulation on this
7028s one only because I know that it's yfp
7032s who is the uh uh the image uh perve for
7037s this one has
7038s actually uh done some manipulation
7041s previously but I think it's still an
7042s amazing screenshot um of this Stinger uh
7047s it's just fabulous it really really is
7049s uh he posted it on Steam again steam
7052s have been bringing out the rare game
7054s recently I really have um but the
7056s coloration is just lovely I really
7059s really like that with the gray and like
7060s the kind of copper uh deep brass looking
7064s kind of image as well um so absolutely
7067s superb um what more can you say he he
7071s positions and composes the screenshots
7073s really yeah sorry Scout not s um Dean
7078s what might be the talent you'd like to
7079s offer us after the stream musical Talent
7081s or anything you want to prove that is an
7083s appropriate shenanigan I haven't really
7085s thought about it to be fair uh Dean um
7089s I'm not I I'm not as musical as I'd like
7093s um but so I probably won't be doing any
7095s Shenanigans you might get the odd poem
7098s from time to time if I feel inspired uh
7100s we did have one a very long time time
7102s ago uh but yeah it's it's to be honest
7105s with you it's it's time doing these
7108s things uh with Eric and his beatbox and
7111s it was very much on the Fly uh and it's
7113s very creative in that way
7116s um
7122s so teasers were singing though fair fair
7125s fair uh spooky reminds me of Mercy from
7127s OverWatch yeah I can see that with the
7128s wings yeah definitely beautiful look
7130s indeed so that was the third choice it
7132s wasn't even our Top Choice I mean I
7134s don't know what the world's coming to
7135s when you think that's not coming so in
7139s second
7141s place was this
7144s one and this is from Vortex lash over on
7147s Steam so all you bomber fans with the
7149s ark
7150s 9000 I think it may look very simple
7154s this shop however I think this was very
7158s very difficult to pull
7160s off for the reason being is that
7163s obviously while you're doing the dreadn
7164s missions you're getting attacked quite
7167s significantly but it also creates such a
7172s massive centralization of the image is
7175s so difficult to do so difficult to do
7178s now you could argue he's not doing any
7179s damage to the dreadnut he isn't however
7182s he has just destroyed whatever was
7184s coming out of the uh the
7187s Bas absolutely out of the Bays uh
7190s Alexandra so your vortex slash well
7193s there you go you can have a round of
7195s applause there you go have a little
7196s round of applause um thank you for
7198s joining us but yeah I like that see once
7201s we know the names um but a wonderful
7203s shot so Alexandra uh over on YouTube we
7207s just need to ask you the the the kind of
7209s question how long did it take you to
7211s actually get this
7213s screenshot did it take you uh a while or
7216s did it just happened as a nice happy
7219s little accident um cuz we want to we
7222s want to know how often it it took
7226s you um the only thing that I noticed and
7229s it's not a criticism because it is a
7230s wonderful shot by the way is that it
7232s wasn't just perfectly
7235s Central and that is a
7238s totally minute CR critique but again
7241s it's so difficult to do to try and get
7243s things to line up because I know that
7244s you're under pressure you're firing the
7246s shot you're putting it into photo mode
7249s and
7250s then he's that I am I am absolutely
7253s nitpicking I'm sorry I absolutely yeah
7256s for about half an hour see half an hour
7258s that's how difficult it was but yeah
7260s that's all it was I literally cuz I
7262s thought oh initially I thought that was
7264s part of your ship I honestly did I
7266s thought that was part of your ship but I
7268s then I realized that that's the canopy
7270s and then the the bit behind it was just
7273s a thingy but yep sorry nitpicking I've
7275s not criticized it was a little
7278s nitpick people are like I'm not coming
7280s back to this bloody stream this guy just
7282s picks bloody images all the time let him
7284s do
7285s better yeah absolutely great shot though
7288s Alexandra uh well done well done and you
7290s were the second
7292s choice now there was a a very distinct
7294s winner um and to be fair it did win not
7299s by much but it still was the most
7301s popular um and it is this one from
7306s somebody from our
7308s Discord and it is sorry I'm not saying
7311s sorry that's his username uh sorry uh a
7314s PlayStation player of uh very high skill
7318s as well but if you have been using this
7322s weapon um you will have known dragon
7325s breath whatever you want to call it um
7328s can bring a wonderful style now the
7330s sweeping Arc and then
7332s capturing um that perfect moment uh took
7337s probably some doing now sorry he's
7338s normally in the streams but he's not
7340s with us tonight so we can't give him too
7342s much but we'll have to make sure that we
7343s uh uh we let him know on the Discord but
7346s this is uh the top pick this is the
7348s Rockfish games Dev top pick
7351s literally um for this week and it it
7355s speaks for itself um the wonderful
7359s aring they great imagery I I I don't
7362s actually know who designed the effects
7363s for um for for this Inferno weapon
7369s but uh we do a good job I you
7373s know uh I I know it work for the team
7375s but yeah uh the the team artists do a
7379s wonderful job and we're very very lucky
7381s to have them on the team uh frog yeah as
7384s a frog be frog approves of the green and
7387s yeah obviously there's so much more
7389s going on and it's such a contrast to the
7390s dark background as well um uh but it's
7394s it's wonderful uh screenshot and a
7396s worthy winner uh but uh a round of
7398s applause to all the rest of you for
7400s doing a great job when you send them in
7402s posting up and uh uh putting them there
7405s to be nitpicked
7409s sorry you know uh you do do a great job
7413s um uh Jesse is that weapon effect
7416s possible uh because of Unreal Engine 5
7417s would have been possible in four I would
7419s haard a guess that it's probably
7421s available in four would it have looked
7423s as good I don't really know but
7426s um definitely it does look gorgeous in
7428s Unreal Engine 5 um but uh right we're
7432s getting close to the time cuz I just
7433s need to wrap up one or two little things
7436s uh and that is just to say that at the
7438s moment just sales-wise just so you are
7441s aware we've got the PlayStation's
7443s essential picks which is for ever space
7445s one and that is currently 80% off so if
7447s you want to dive into ever space one on
7450s uh your PlayStation it is there
7452s available for 80% off uh good old games
7456s made Dak uh is 80% off for ever space
7458s one and 60% off on ever Space 2 so
7460s there's a sale over on good old games if
7462s you want to drive in there as well and
7464s then we've got the Humble Bundle
7466s Halloween festival which is 50% off
7469s forever space one and ever space too so
7471s if you want to buy in for the Humble
7472s Bundle which can go towards charity as
