80s	goodness gravy folks
85s	oh
86s	i just caught the uh
89s	the mic on my pants
91s	what what a problem to have
94s	right before a live stream
97s	what
98s	how's that how did that even happen oh
100s	my gosh hang on a second
104s	wha
106s	why
108s	all right okay it's fine the show must

116s	totally fine hello welcome ladies and
118s	gentlemen to the official rockfish game
120s	stream where i am your host and your
122s	guide through all things everspace 2.
125s	i can't hear anything i need to put my
126s	freaking headphones on eric schrader
128s	your community ambassador oh my goodness
132s	i forgot to fill up my water dang it i
134s	know i forgot something that's okay
135s	don't worry about that what we're
136s	worried about today are all the new
138s	things that we've been working on and an
140s	introduction into what could be the fall
143s	update already
145s	oh my goodness so we've got a couple of
147s	new things to show you today
149s	uh and a slew of things to kind of
152s	discuss
153s	some stuff that's been going on in the
155s	back field the back field the back the
157s	background the the you know the things
159s	you can't see that's what i'm talking
161s	about and uh boy
163s	boy howdy it's been uh it's been a
166s	fantastic little journey so
168s	please journey with me as we travel into
171s	uh more content
174s	yeah
175s	awesome so we're gonna start with the
177s	perk update i wanted to show you this i
179s	have a specific save for this in
180s	particular because
183s	the save that continues where we're
185s	going to be playing from has all the
186s	perks unlocked which wouldn't be very
188s	revealing of
190s	these intricate details of the perk
191s	update so
192s	uh let's go ahead and
195s	can't hear me
197s	wait what
199s	it's mono not steroid hang on a second
201s	hang on a second
203s	oh my gosh really
205s	why is that why is there always a
207s	problem right before the stream it's
208s	always the stream right
210s	hang on let's see what happens
236s	testing one two three okay so now it's
238s	coming in
242s	goodness
243s	you know it's it's so funny
247s	it's not funny at all but it is it does
249s	make me laugh the number of things that
252s	are done in order to prepare for a
254s	stream
255s	it's kind of absurd okay i don't know
257s	how many of you out there stream like
259s	you you guys know
261s	how many little intricacies there are
264s	every single thursday
267s	i go through and do a quick check to
269s	make sure everything's working on
270s	thursday the day before the stream
273s	oh my gosh and it never fails
276s	it never fails and ask any streamer
278s	they'll tell you this is exactly what
280s	happens never fails you get your stream
282s	all set up ready to go you've got all
284s	your checks and balances taken care of
287s	everything's in operation you push that
289s	go button and 50 things break
292s	instantaneously that's how streaming
294s	works that's just how it works
296s	i'm just letting you know if you ever
298s	want to be a streamer just prepare
299s	yourself
300s	because that's actually how it works all
302s	right so now that everything's working
305s	everything's in operation
307s	wow uh let's just start from the
310s	beginning welcome ladies and gentlemen
312s	to the official rockfish game stream i
315s	am your host and your guide and your
316s	servant eric schroeder the community
318s	ambassador for rockfish games who will
320s	guide you through the processes and
322s	development ease of ever space too
325s	oh
326s	that's why we're here we don't care
328s	about any of that streaming garbage
330s	nonsense ah
332s	so yeah welcome it's so good having you
335s	we are going to take a quick look
337s	straight out of the way into this
339s	revamped perks thing okay
342s	all of this has been changed uh to a
345s	degree
346s	so let's talk about that just by showing
348s	you this page alone i think you've
350s	already gotten the gist of it i think
352s	you already get it
355s	pretty straightforward right
357s	we feel like it should be so uh the left
359s	side
360s	has consolidated perks a bit better so
363s	that doesn't look like there's going to
364s	be a bajillion perks the right side
367s	shows you
368s	the progression of perk unlocks before
372s	you get the one before it so here you
374s	can see a good solid example you can pay
376s	only 70 for full repairs has been
379s	unlocked we are working on the process
382s	to get pay only 70 for equipment repairs
385s	and then we also see that beyond that
387s	freehold repairs up to 30 of the maximum
390s	hole hit points when docking is that
392s	final third reveal
395s	and it's all available right from the
397s	get-go and this applies to every single
400s	perk now so ones that have like a bunch
402s	of them you get to see all of those
404s	stats
405s	before you unlock it the only thing you
407s	don't see are the upgrade requirements
410s	for ones after the one you're working on
412s	that's what you don't see
415s	but we are very satisfied with how this
418s	is in operation now so as a player you
422s	can quickly peruse your perks and be
424s	like oh i i really want to get this
426s	thing because of that third one instead
429s	of the you know the first one that
430s	you're on you don't see what's gonna
432s	happen next right
434s	uh like alec in particular like the
436s	first one in conjunction to like how
438s	he's going to assist you later i think
440s	this is a really nice one because it
441s	shows you he's going to upgrade his
443s	weaponry and then it's going to add a
445s	secondary missile um the emp
448s	specifically uh and it just it every
450s	single one it does this right this one
453s	also is a nice one to see with the ship
455s	dealers since you don't specifically
456s	know what those are going to give
459s	it's every single one
461s	every single one
465s	all righty
467s	all righty
470s	so there we go um
472s	oh shoot i need a i need to grab one one
475s	more file oh my gosh every every time
478s	every time this is this isn't my fault
480s	you got this is a
482s	general streaming uh issue thing this is
485s	just me being a complete doofus
487s	uh let me see let me find my
489s	my file here oh gosh
493s	okay now we're good now now everything's
496s	good
499s	goodness gravy okay
503s	so um i've got
505s	questions already coming in uh geekbyte
507s	thank you for cataloging those
509s	um and let's let's start answering a
511s	couple of those after we've shown the
513s	perks here
515s	and uh then we will keep cruising around
518s	and show you some new content
521s	so that's that's a big reason why you're
522s	here aside from you know asking
523s	questions getting clarity so first
525s	question
527s	uh a location challenge and drake says
529s	to find three submerged things the c is
531s	huge i found just one next to a huge
533s	skelly are there any
534s	leads to where the other two are at this
537s	point in time uh the only leads that
540s	there's going to be are
541s	basically how the level is designed
543s	itself so like if there's a particular
546s	pattern or design in the level itself
550s	like the the
551s	world's building if you will the or not
554s	the world building the um what's the
555s	term i'm looking for the
557s	is it level design yeah i guess it's
559s	level design you know like if you see a
561s	little house on a hill there's probably
563s	something to do around that site right
565s	like if there's a mountain range that's
566s	curved like this and there's like a path
568s	that kind of goes down it then obviously
570s	it leads your eyes up stuff like that um
572s	so
573s	at the moment um i don't think there's
575s	anything other than little key visual
578s	indicators that would clue you in as to
580s	where they may or may not be uh but some
582s	of those are actually a bit more
584s	challenging than most other
585s	others so
587s	yeah there's gonna be a couple more
588s	tweaks and refinements towards the
590s	level design anyway we could in fact see
593s	those in drake for
596s	this specific mission so yeah there you
599s	go
601s	uh all right let's see then another
603s	question we have comes from um here you
607s	can also see this one we we simplified
609s	this so it's not misleading since our
611s	target is 30 levels for atom now we have
614s	exactly space for
616s	um you know
618s	18 perks here which would be after
620s	getting level 30.
622s	uh next question uh what are the current
624s	plans on optimizing the game um
628s	shoot that's there are so many different
630s	ways to optimize um every version of the
632s	game seems to run a bit less good
634s	there's quit uh
636s	quite a bit of hitching going on
638s	especially in larger bases yeah i mean
640s	you're gonna get that whenever we
641s	especially when we release new content
643s	like there's gonna be like a little
644s	hiccup because we're just like throwing
646s	a lot of that content at you and
648s	optimization comes through like the
650s	experimental branch for example but then
651s	also through feedback of the early
653s	access phase in general so if you're
655s	looking for the most optimized game to
659s	experience that's gonna be full release
661s	that's that the full release is like
663s	after everything
665s	has been built
666s	right like everything has been
667s	established everything has been
668s	optimized so through the process of
671s	getting there you're gonna have some
673s	clunks you're going to have some hiccups
674s	you're going to have some
676s	bobbly boops
678s	you're going to have some
680s	what's-a-do-zits
682s	insert weird word here that is the
684s	experience of early access
686s	i know that that's not really an
688s	expectation that gamers have anymore uh
690s	but i think it's a last one that should
692s	absolutely still be present
694s	early access is very much not complete
697s	and you will encounter issues guaranteed
700s	100
702s	you will
703s	and it's our job to fix them when they
706s	come up it's your job to let us know
708s	that they are coming up so thank you for
710s	letting us know that you're having some
712s	issues on your optimization
715s	uh and or rather your experience that
718s	feels like things aren't optimized i
720s	know that we could even get
722s	further with such a question if you
724s	provided like your system specs on the
726s	forums so that we could maybe even
729s	identify a key issue at hand um whether
732s	it's on your end or it's on ours so that
735s	we can authentically do something about
736s	it
738s	i spent a lot of time talking about that
739s	a little bit of a tangent but seriously
742s	lower that expectation of early access
744s	being perfection uh and realize there
746s	are going to be bugs and issues and
748s	all sorts of
750s	whoops of daisies
752s	all right uh i'm gonna do one more
754s	question and then we are going to uh
756s	slap back into actual gameplay instead
758s	of just staring at the screen that's
760s	really kind of cool actually i really
762s	love how we've redone this um
765s	but this one uh you could see the clouds
767s	moving from space on some planets in
769s	everspace one will that be the case here
772s	as well or is it already pretty sure
774s	that you can see that
776s	pretty sure that's already
778s	in effect um
780s	but uh shoot we can we can check it out
782s	and see if i'm wrong
784s	uh no big deal but um
788s	yeah i know that there's a lot of
789s	especially like in super light we wanted
791s	to make sure that there were a lot of
792s	pleasantries when you're looking around
795s	otherwise what's the point in
798s	having super light exist instead of just
800s	instantly going from one point to the
801s	other like if if part of the journey
803s	isn't the visualization of it then you
805s	know so uh yeah anyway i also uh have a
808s	different ship here i
811s	wanted to go for something
813s	a little bit more i don't know pointy
816s	and i also changed my colors around to
818s	this orange sort of highlight
820s	so we'll be flying around coalition uh
823s	as well as the drake system
825s	itself with this new ship we also have a
829s	couple new armaments that will benefit
831s	our cause here
834s	and one of those
837s	is
838s	a familiar
840s	weapon
841s	even though the artwork on it is not
843s	done but let's talk about these cruise
845s	missiles
849s	let's talk about these cruise missiles
851s	first off
853s	that's a lot of damage for being level
855s	21.
858s	and i want to clarify i want to point
859s	that out for level 21 for a single
863s	missile
864s	that's a lot of damage
867s	that's a
868s	crap ton of damage so let's talk about
871s	this
872s	we have crap tons of damage we have a
874s	range of 4
876s	000
878s	meters
880s	we have an incredibly slow fire rate
883s	and a pretty long lock duration
887s	i have what might be the best two
889s	modifiers on this weapon
891s	plus 10 damage for each second the
893s	missile flies and remember it's 4 000
898s	meters 4 000 meters okay
901s	also what it doesn't tell you here is
903s	the velocity of this cruise missile and
905s	why is this important i'm going to show
906s	you right now
910s	this cruise
911s	missile doesn't exactly go very fast
919s	like we can dang near
921s	fly with it and look it goes for a long
924s	time
926s	it goes for a very long time
928s	all right
930s	all the way up to this point now just
932s	imagine
933s	getting the maximum range where it's
935s	getting plus 10 percent damage for each
937s	second the missile flies i don't know if
939s	anybody was timing that but i'm gonna
941s	give it's give or take like eight
943s	seconds all right
945s	so take this damage and then dang near
948s	double it
954s	yeah
955s	oh yeah
957s	it gets better though guys because
959s	remember
961s	it does lock
964s	so this is different from the plasma
966s	torpedoes
967s	it's
969s	evolved since then
971s	because even though the lock does take
973s	some time
975s	let's get in let's sit we're not going
976s	to fire at the drone but let's just uh
979s	use this as an example
985s	it will in fact
987s	lock
988s	so if i fire it wonky it does in fact
991s	correct itself
1001s	shooting at a drone was a bad choice
1004s	because
1005s	even though its velocity is slow its
1008s	turning radius is also sloppy so
1011s	the lock is nice
1014s	a very nimble target is still going to
1016s	evade this
1018s	a variable target's still going to
1020s	invade this but if you're looking to
1022s	take on boss's really big ships and
1024s	whatnot uh to like just really clobber
1027s	them you're gonna need cruise missiles
1030s	especially if they get more tough
1033s	uh anyway
1035s	so cruise missiles those they're fun i
1037s	like them
1039s	i like them lots
1042s	i've been able to uh experiment with
1044s	them a little bit
1045s	in little situations
1049s	they're quite powerful
1052s	so uh today we are going to fly over
1055s	here to this drake research station
1058s	uh two things to point out
1060s	one thing first thing
1062s	is that
1064s	when
1065s	uh when we talked about
1068s	the
1069s	tools to fast travel
1072s	spatial bypass
1074s	we discovered that
1078s	it's broken for drake
1080s	if you continue saves
1082s	past acquiring spatial bypass
1086s	this is one of those things that is
1089s	an unfortunate side effect of old saves
1092s	and not having their flags data
1094s	accordingly
1095s	so when i go here i am not going to have
1097s	a spatial bypass opportunity whatsoever
1102s	but if you start a new save
1104s	you absolutely should
1106s	you would absolutely be able to spatial
1108s	bypass into the drake system
1112s	isn't early access fun oh my goodness
1115s	but otherwise what i want to do in this
1117s	drake research station is the location
1120s	challenge because i think it's lots of
1121s	fun
1128s	and we're going to use the cruise
1128s	missile and stuff like that i do see
1131s	more questions uh spawning i will get
1133s	into another question phase first i want
1136s	to do this research station little quest
1138s	and we'll probably use another new tool
1141s	that we have
1142s	to help us out
1143s	as well
1150s	all right
1152s	let's defeat these incoming waves of
1154s	fighters
1157s	also hang on a second
1160s	okay
1161s	just making sure it's not very hard
1163s	you don't want somebody to think that
1165s	we're not playing on a difficult uh
1167s	level or something here
1170s	also i don't want to get frozen so we're
1172s	just going to use our front shield
1173s	generator here
1188s	excellent
1198s	now i'm sure that there are plenty of
1200s	you veterans of everspace one who are
1201s	like yes red shield generator this is
1203s	like one of my favorite things on the
1205s	gun ship um well hang on a second
1207s	because it gets better and let me show
1209s	you uh just how it does
1212s	so
1213s	let's check out the front shield
1215s	generator we have it mastered here
1217s	projects an impenetrable shield towards
1219s	the front of the ship for 19 seconds
1221s	that's its mastery and then for all of
1223s	you
1224s	big fans of a certain character that
1226s	probably exists in pop culture uh we
1228s	have three modes actually named
1231s	that do some pretty incredible things
1234s	the first one
1235s	avenger reflects blocked shots back to
1238s	attackers
1240s	well chef's kiss for those of you guys
1243s	who love instilling as much pain and
1245s	suffering on those who try to do the
1247s	same to you
1249s	next one which i'm using black damage is
1251s	converted to weapon energy it's called
1253s	all day
1256s	very very nice if you want a clear
1258s	sustained amount of damage to return
1260s	fire
1261s	and finally on your left
1264s	shield is 25 smaller but it will
1266s	automatically turn towards the closest
1268s	enemy facing it let's go ahead and use
1269s	that one right now
1271s	just so you can kind of see how it works
1277s	so regardless of where you're pointing
1281s	say this other drone's been causing me a
1283s	lot of grief it's not gonna cover me
1284s	from that particular drone while i'm
1286s	dealing with with other things and then
1288s	i can come over here and take it out
1292s	kind of a nice mix up nice change of
1294s	pace
1296s	except now we really need that front
1297s	shield generator
1301s	it gives you a lot more flexibility than
1303s	the original
1304s	uh front shield generator initially had
1310s	[Music]
1311s	now obviously certain modes are going to
1313s	be for certain play styles
1315s	some of you especially when you're
1316s	getting overwhelmed by all the things uh
1319s	you're probably not going to uh want it
1321s	to be manually pointing you're going to
1322s	want to point it to your liking
1328s	right
1330s	so uh yeah
1332s	pilots may vary and how useful these
1334s	different
1335s	modes can be
1337s	as it should be
1339s	i just think it's a lot of fun because
1340s	it looks cool
1342s	because that's how that's how it works
1344s	right
1344s	if it looks cool then it is cool right
1352s	perfect i said that wrong if it looks
1354s	cool then it's good that's what i mean
1367s	wow my aim's a little off today with
1368s	this coil again
1370s	ooh blooper what'd we get
1372s	emp missiles nice all right
1375s	cool
1383s	oh look at that he's got a he's got a
1384s	front shield generator too it's almost
1386s	like you guys should we're probably
1388s	expecting this to happen too
1393s	here let's try out um
1395s	let's see what happens if
1397s	we fire this
1398s	at his front shield generator
1401s	wow he absorbs all of that i was hoping
1403s	for some splash damage but okay
1406s	i never uh i've never done that before
1408s	here we go
1409s	oh gosh
1410s	i fired it before i had a lock how dare
1412s	i
1413s	we'll have to get some more of those
1414s	hold still please
1423s	much better
1424s	much better
1446s	another blueprint oh my goodness they're
1448s	just
1450s	giving me everything i love it
1462s	see we can do on this front
1475s	that's a spicy meatball
1479s	all right my gosh two more blueprints
1483s	wowzers
1485s	just give me all the blueprints would
1486s	you
1498s	try and get ourselves a little bit of
1499s	space now you guys probably know this
1502s	but i am actually
1504s	under leveled at this site
1506s	so uh
1507s	i should absolutely be getting a lot of
1509s	pain and suffering if i'm not utilizing
1511s	all the tools which is why i'm trying to
1513s	use all my tools
1517s	i also like how when you have this like
1519s	i'm totally blocking the rear of my ship
1522s	while i'm focused firing at somebody
1523s	else i like that particularly a lot
1530s	now we got wave five ah yes the
1533s	retaliator drone carrier which i was
1535s	hoping that we would have some uh
1536s	missiles to use on
1538s	uh unfortunate that we used them all uh
1540s	hey guys i have an idea um
1543s	go look uh
1545s	over over there
1546s	oh my gosh go oh my goodness the music
1549s	go look over there somewhere
1551s	it's it's amazing uh that thing i just
1554s	saw at the corner of my eye that thing
1557s	yeah that's the one i'm talking about
1560s	definitely uh
1561s	don't look at anything behind the
1563s	curtain
1565s	because that's not that's not what's
1566s	important
1569s	absolutely not nope may i say to thee
1571s	all right hey where were we where were
1573s	we oh yes
1575s	oh hang on hang on a second i need to
1576s	push i need to push another button
1580s	excellent
1581s	great
1583s	wow i got these high-capacity cruise
1585s	missiles that's great
1587s	so we're gonna wait for those to charge
1588s	up should only be 15 seconds
1591s	and now i want to get really obnoxious
1593s	because i think i can actually drop this
1595s	in a single shot
1597s	i think
1600s	i think we can
1602s	and also just imagine this on a scout
1605s	that does even more damage oh he's kind
1607s	of moving away we might need a fire
1608s	again we're gonna see if that gets there
1616s	oh it was just short oh that's so sad
1619s	all right next one come on
1628s	hang on a second hang on a second
1631s	hang on i tested this earlier and it was
1634s	much more impressive than that uh hang
1636s	on uh let's see i want to see the
1639s	numbers
1641s	let's show those damage numbers let's do
1643s	this let's do this again
1645s	and now maybe the armor's out of the way
1647s	we basically just
1649s	mass destroyed its armor
1658s	yeah that's a that was a pretty chunky
1660s	shot actually but yeah you can see it's
1662s	doing a tremendous amount of damage it's
1664s	probably the fact that i'm level 21
1665s	firing a level 21 version of this on a
1667s	level 22 but regardless you can tell
1669s	that that's not a small amount of damage
1672s	coming from a secondary uh weapon like
1675s	at all
1677s	last point to uh
1680s	last note to point out actually is that
1682s	every time that i fight i was 68k damage
1685s	every time i'm firing one of these if
1687s	you look right below me
1689s	you'll see that there's actually a
1690s	little cooldown meter now
1693s	there's a cooldown meter that shows you
1696s	how long you have to wait until you can
1697s	fire again
1699s	and that works on all weapons on all
1701s	missiles
1703s	so you can very quickly get a sense of
1708s	when you can fire
1709s	again yeah in comparison to our little
1711s	pot shots here
1714s	yeah we did a crap ton of damage
1716s	with that secondary
1719s	34k in a single shot in each one of our
1721s	little shots here is anywhere between
1723s	like what 800 and a thousand
1727s	that's quite the difference
1732s	quite the difference indeed oh man we
1734s	should have saved some more of them
1738s	but obviously the compensate for this it
1740s	shows up in a very low number so you
1743s	can't have a lot of these um unless you
1746s	have like all of your secondary weapon
1748s	slots filled out with them uh but in
1750s	general they only have like three four
1752s	or five slots that you can fill with
1754s	this missile since it does so much
1756s	damage
1758s	since it does so much damage uh let me
1760s	also change the setting i don't like
1762s	looking at numbers
1764s	so i turn that back off uh and now let's
1767s	take out this destroyer
1776s	excellent
1780s	protect ourselves from those little
1781s	dronesies
1783s	while we're focused on oh gosh
1791s	that's pain that was painful
1793s	but it's okay we can uh we can fix this
1807s	i found a bug
1814s	oh gosh
1816s	oh that's the best
1818s	that is the best oh my goodness the
1821s	number of times
1823s	that i have
1825s	smoke tested
1827s	before streams
1830s	honestly i think we should keep it i
1832s	like it
1833s	it's uh it's great
1838s	can't see me
1840s	nope oh my gosh guys
1844s	is it early access so much fun
1848s	isn't it just the best thing in the
1850s	world
1852s	man all this overheating and stuff
1855s	it's gonna be my demise i'm telling you
1868s	all right we gotta we gotta gain some
1869s	space we gotta make up some ground here
1872s	let's uh let's use the tools that we
1874s	have in order to recover from this
1877s	goodness gravy do we even have anything
1879s	to craft oh great we've got these small
1882s	nanobots that's fine
1884s	oh goodness
1891s	fantastic let me tell you what if you're
1893s	at this point in the game and you don't
1895s	have
1896s	many more i'm seeing why so many
1898s	blueprints are dropping now uh if you
1900s	don't have very many blueprints
1902s	and you're at this part in the game
1903s	there's there's probably a problem
1906s	there's probably a problem
1908s	uh
1909s	this one's definitely showcasing how i
1911s	have altered this save state to give
1913s	this presentation anyway
1920s	let's get back into the fray
1923s	do what we can
1927s	there's a couple more uh
1929s	weak points
1931s	on the vessel
1933s	that we can focus down
1936s	oh there we go oh yeah he's not there's
1938s	not much left of him now
1943s	awesome
1954s	very good
1956s	this makes this this was all worth it
1960s	so we got ourselves another mainframe
1962s	component and of course we got ourselves
1963s	a group of items
1966s	to tackle as well
1970s	nothing super crazy but i'll take it
1973s	thank you very much
1975s	or blaster's busted we'll just use this
1977s	intuitive blaster instead our
1979s	equalizer's busted so he's the intuitive
1980s	gloss company uh that's way better thank
1983s	you
1985s	uh but yeah
1987s	wasn't that fun wasn't that enjoyable
1990s	goodness
1991s	might only be able to craft nailbots but
1992s	at least you had money oh my gosh
1997s	yeah money is so important in battle
1999s	right now
2000s	thank you for that that's great
2003s	all right so i'm gonna pot shot a couple
2004s	more of these guys
2006s	show you this tracking shield generator
2008s	a little bit more i'm i'm a big fan of
2010s	it it's just fun to use and also for
2013s	anybody who's probably out there
2015s	wondering like man why is it orange
2019s	why why is this shield orange i'm not
2021s	sure i like that i wish it could have
2023s	been in a different color
2026s	well boy do i have news for you
2031s	later
2035s	oh my god so let's go ahead and pick
2037s	this thing up
2038s	maybe
2040s	i want to pick it up
2046s	take out this punk
2049s	excuse me i was not done
2061s	wonderful all right now that things have
2063s	calmed down a little bit i think we can
2065s	go ahead and oh this did actually
2067s	generate i did fix my save oh excellent
2070s	so yeah you can actually see spatial
2072s	bypass is totally possible here
2076s	something that i was uh pointing out
2080s	just a bit earlier but there is in fact
2082s	a spatial bypass location in grape
2086s	right at the top of this here
2089s	destroyed station
2094s	let's destroy things a little bit
2095s	further shall we excellent oh there's a
2096s	shield oh
2105s	it's almost like there's something i
2107s	have to complete in this area to bring
2108s	that down
2110s	all right
2111s	cool
2112s	so now that uh the space is a little bit
2114s	calmer i'm gonna go ahead and just fly
2116s	in the innards here just because i can
2122s	hide for a second and let's uh let's
2124s	have some more conversation oh my
2125s	goodness
2126s	oh my goodness
2131s	man so much
2133s	so much chaos in that little section
2136s	just to talk about two very important
2137s	things
2139s	so let's just talk about a little bit
2140s	further yeah these cruise missiles can
2142s	be insane it's gonna depend on how
2144s	you're putting them together um and all
2146s	of that fun stuff uh with your builds i
2149s	think scout players are going to rejoice
2151s	because uh we actually went through and
2153s	we discovered something
2155s	let me pull up my deets to make sure i
2156s	get this 100 accurate
2160s	uh but yeah so we fixed how the scout's
2163s	expertise wasn't increasing the range of
2165s	secondary weapons so this is after your
2167s	particular build um this is incredibly
2170s	relevant to tools like
2172s	the high-capacity cruise missiles
2174s	because what that means is that
2176s	this is going to get expanded range
2179s	so if you had something like damage for
2180s	each second the missile flies that's
2181s	going to increase that damage naturally
2183s	authentically so your scout is going to
2185s	be able to like do some major super
2187s	sniping stuffs with secondaries as well
2190s	not just primaries
2191s	so for those of you who like that sort
2193s	of gameplay style of always getting the
2195s	jump on your opponent before they see
2196s	you
2197s	this could be a very powerful tool if
2199s	you're flying around in the scout
2208s	so uh yeah that's a pretty big one i
2211s	feel like is coming to you
2213s	all but obviously we are talking about
2216s	this front shield generator a lot i'm
2218s	gonna use avenger now just because it
2220s	feels really nice um especially if you
2223s	were to have i don't know say
2226s	uh retaliation in addition to that but
2229s	we don't have it yet because we're not
2230s	level 25
2231s	sad
2233s	still um
2236s	yeah reflect blocked shots back to the
2238s	attackers uh this is taking those shots
2242s	exactly
2242s	and sending them back so i'm gonna be
2244s	very clear on that front and i'll just
2246s	showcase it so that you are aware of
2248s	what it's doing
2249s	this is not receiving the damage of a
2251s	shot and then putting the damage on your
2253s	opponent
2254s	this is literally taking the shot and
2257s	bouncing it off your shield so let's see
2258s	if i can uh
2260s	generate some attention for this guy to
2262s	show
2263s	but you're gonna you're gonna fight the
2265s	other guy okay here we go
2267s	all right so let's see
2270s	you see that it's bouncing
2272s	is that bouncing off of my shield
2275s	oh that actually hit him too because he
2277s	got way too close come on one more time
2278s	one more time
2280s	please
2283s	please
2285s	no no your shield is going to expire
2287s	first how dare you
2291s	let's open action freeze it then we'll
2293s	find another one oh here we
2297s	go maybe one that's not engaged with
2300s	somebody else come on
2316s	here we go
2320s	so you can see that they are literally
2322s	bouncing off of our shield and they are
2324s	returning to cinder okay so yeah look at
2327s	that
2328s	so all the effects all of the damage all
2331s	of the everything that's associated with
2333s	the shot itself will be returned to that
2335s	fighter so
2337s	theoretically
2339s	if i were to be taking enough damage
2342s	from a particular opponent who was
2343s	trying to burn me out or freeze me i
2346s	could return it and do it back to them
2349s	so it's not this is not the same thing
2352s	as thorns okay this is a literal
2356s	redirect
2358s	of the projectile
2360s	we'll be very clear on that okay
2367s	so it's not
2369s	just
2371s	oh they were gonna do 70 damage to you
2373s	now
2374s	they take 70. no no no
2376s	it's they were attempting to apply all
2378s	of the effects of this shot and you're
2380s	returning that back to them
2384s	and you do not have to if anybody's
2386s	wondering you do not have to align the
2387s	shield to get like a perfect
2390s	angle back to them uh so long as they
2392s	shoot it like if the opponent was kind
2393s	of like over here and shooting at an
2395s	angle and hitting the shield from over
2397s	here it's going to reflect it directly
2399s	back at the point of origin
2401s	okay
2404s	all right i think that kind of covers
2406s	most of that
2408s	uh but uh yeah questions let's do some
2412s	more questions oh my goodness but yeah
2414s	we'll go ahead and uh hover over this so
2416s	you can kind of
2417s	read this while i'm answering that uh
2421s	it's it'll be fun good fun times all
2423s	right
2427s	uh so could be missing something about
2429s	the current version that's live ship
2430s	passive re-rolling and ship catalog
2432s	rerolling isn't in or perhaps not
2434s	working it should totally be in but you
2435s	do have to upgrade a perk uh
2438s	specifically
2439s	this one from turin called ship dealers
2441s	in order to obtain that
2444s	so if you have this
2446s	completely maxed out and you still don't
2448s	have those options there's a bug there
2450s	and i'm not sure what's going on but we
2451s	would love your save file to fix it
2454s	that's for sure
2457s	all right uh next up
2459s	do you agree that i already don't like
2461s	the way this starts
2463s	do you agree that arc 9000 should be
2465s	fixed to work underwater properly no
2467s	it's dark underwater dark matter device
2469s	so it should right um yes probably i
2473s	don't know but i'm not a scientist what
2475s	i am is a game design consultant and i
2477s	want my games to be fun and we have
2480s	imposed a specific restriction
2481s	underwater which is you can't fire
2483s	weapons so that just simply needs to be
2485s	consistent all the way through so that
2488s	includes the arc 9000 no it's not meant
2490s	to be fired underwater i think the video
2492s	that was posted on the discord was
2494s	rather hilarious and that it could be
2496s	fired under water and immediately
2497s	explodes in your face uh but yeah that's
2499s	going to be removed
2501s	that will be removed there were some
2502s	cool things in our space one like those
2504s	solar storms and dark nebulae and
2506s	whatnot will the fall update ancient
2507s	rifts have them i love this question
2509s	however if i told you yes that would be
2512s	way too revealing and possibly lying but
2514s	maybe not lying what but it's probably
2516s	lying um but also um there's a lot that
2520s	we want to do with the ancient rifts and
2521s	kind of the new places that you'll be
2523s	experiencing through that i think it's
2525s	gonna best be uh
2527s	like experienced once it gets here when
2529s	we're able to share more on that um at
2531s	that time uh i do know that we've had a
2533s	lot of complications with environmental
2535s	spaces and everspace 2 that were already
2538s	introduced in everspace 1 like black
2539s	holes for example i know that from a
2542s	technical standpoint
2543s	there haven't been too many challenges
2545s	it's been more of the world building and
2548s	the accessibility standpoints through
2550s	our gamification of our more pseudo-open
2554s	world experience being had here so long
2556s	story short um
2559s	it's possible
2563s	how's that for a simplified answer all
2564s	right so anywhere on your ship's page
2567s	you can see
2568s	boost speed on striker you can see how
2570s	much expertise adds but not your total
2574s	uh
2577s	oh you're talking about okay yeah you're
2579s	talking about like the
2580s	um
2581s	the differences basically uh yeah okay
2584s	so
2585s	technically
2587s	no
2589s	there's an on-screen dashboard inside
2592s	the cockpit
2594s	that gives you a value it's like right
2596s	it's right there it's that it's that one
2598s	that went to zero so like as i'm moving
2601s	uh here i can i can do this to show you
2604s	oh yeah oh clipping is the best thing
2607s	ever but this number right there
2610s	that's effectively our speed um and when
2613s	you're boosting it also does show up
2615s	as well so like here i'm gonna boost and
2618s	uh oh man i'm glad i didn't hit a weird
2621s	combination of keys that would break
2623s	things oh my gosh i love this uh but now
2625s	you see like boosting oh it's over there
2627s	there we go wow
2628s	now you see boosting right there 828
2632s	you're getting a sense of like
2635s	how fast we're going with all of the
2636s	stats that have increased but otherwise
2639s	um you don't really get a sense of the
2641s	overarching
2643s	uh values it's more of like how it feels
2646s	in game that's what we're really going
2648s	for otherwise this speed right here
2651s	this speed right here um is kind of like
2654s	the the be-all end-all trait that we
2656s	have a lot of individuals refer to when
2658s	you're trying to figure out your speed
2660s	uh and then from your boosters there's
2663s	obviously a lot going on here but if you
2665s	really want to crunch those numbers you
2666s	would basically apply these percentages
2669s	directly to your speed
2672s	and you would see those alterations so
2674s	um
2675s	let me see i want to just double check
2677s	and make sure yeah
2678s	so yeah um
2681s	unlike shield armor and hole
2683s	uh i'm pretty sure speed does not change
2687s	here based on what you have plugged into
2691s	your ship
2692s	you have to just see that percentage
2694s	difference between
2696s	um your speed and that
2698s	i might talk about the team and see
2700s	if there's an if there's an allure to
2702s	having that update like shield armor and
2704s	whole but i don't know how feasible that
2706s	is in the current game state
2710s	uh regardless
2713s	i like the question a lot
2715s	but there's not too much more to
2717s	authentically add to that unfortunately
2720s	uh then we're gonna do
2722s	three questions oh my gosh three more
2723s	questions and then we will uh go back
2725s	into
2726s	gameplay
2727s	cruise missile
2729s	how does this work with the free missile
2730s	every 1.5 seconds
2734s	this cannot get that modifier
2737s	so in other words it doesn't work
2739s	it does not work you can't have that
2740s	modifier generated on a cruise missile
2743s	does this override the listed fire rate
2745s	on the missile in the stats uh
2747s	because that doesn't work it's
2749s	irrelevant whereas the free missile
2751s	after crit chance only launched after
2752s	1.5 seconds and after the list rate of
2754s	fire on the missile that's how it would
2755s	work
2756s	uh but it's not applicable here
2759s	i don't think we have any missiles that
2761s	take longer than 1.5
2763s	seconds we probably do actually no i'm
2765s	thinking about it
2767s	corrosion missiles might maybe
2769s	no
2771s	regardless uh no that's not going to
2773s	stack like that no it's it's not
2775s	possible to generate on a cruise missile
2777s	um that being said it is possible to get
2780s	the lock duration decreased for a cruise
2783s	missile so if you don't like that four
2785s	second lock duration and you'd rather
2787s	have something like half a second
2789s	you can get that
2792s	and we're happy with that combination
2793s	that's a very pleasant one to have uh
2796s	depending on the situation that you're
2797s	in
2798s	all right uh because those are three
2800s	rapid fire questions i'll do one more
2802s	one more does playing on
2805s	harder than normal difficulties also
2808s	increase loot drops and xp gained or
2810s	does it affect the global difficulty it
2812s	just affects the global difficulty right
2815s	now your question also kind of pokes in
2817s	and you say will it in the future
2820s	this is a great question
2822s	this is a great question what i can say
2823s	is that there will be inherent
2825s	differences to how the game's
2827s	internal processes occur based on
2830s	difficulty instead of it just being
2832s	enemy harder to go boom
2834s	uh an enemy easier right like it's
2836s	there's going to be much more
2837s	distinctions there now in regards to
2840s	the depth of that
2843s	those features and those tweaks and
2845s	those everything's are still being
2848s	decided as more content is being added
2850s	to the game we can't plug it all in
2853s	because then we'd have to redo a lot of
2855s	it
2855s	because of more content that's showing
2857s	up so that's why
2859s	we didn't want to release the difficulty
2861s	early in the first place but also we
2863s	decided to push it out the door since a
2865s	lot of you guys were
2866s	needing a little bit of assistance or
2868s	wanting more of a challenge and that's
2870s	fine um but yeah the revamp difficulty
2874s	system
2875s	will be much closer to 1.0 release so
2877s	that we can truly and authentically bind
2879s	it to the content that the game has
2884s	cool
2885s	all right i think that's enough
2886s	questions for now
2887s	um
2892s	so yeah we will continue the gameplay
2895s	experience and talk about a couple more
2897s	little details
2898s	um one of the things that we did tweak
2900s	was these are really a drone damage
2902s	which you probably saw a little bit in
2905s	combat here that's a scout dang it but
2908s	the drones don't merely pummel you to
2910s	death with their beams
2913s	as a pretty large issue we were seeing
2916s	across the board uh either through
2918s	feedback through complaints through our
2921s	own play tests
2923s	uh how did sneak in there uh
2925s	man i don't i don't know why
2928s	every time a game is developed it's just
2930s	not perfect the first time it comes out
2931s	i don't get it uh but regardless
2935s	uh this is fun
2938s	all right
2941s	so
2943s	ah
2944s	let's go somewhere else
2948s	do you like that somebody's like i
2949s	didn't know that was there it's fun it's
2951s	like gives her a real good sense of
2952s	speed
2954s	all right so let's um let's do a job
2957s	let's go destroy this
2959s	base for the coalition not owned by the
2961s	coalition but for the coalition a job
2964s	for the coalition
2966s	and then we will keep going
2971s	i'm making sure i'm not missing any like
2972s	cheeky comments and whatnot in the chat
2974s	because i watch you guys
2977s	all right
2978s	the original drake theme is back i don't
2980s	know what's happening with the super
2981s	light music
2982s	don't ask me i don't have a clue
2986s	somebody's messing around with with
2988s	stats
2994s	i wasn't like sincerely it wasn't a
2996s	point of conversation in any of my
2997s	meetings this week
2999s	uh i've been so hyper focused on other
3001s	details
3002s	and you know flying through drake i'm
3005s	testing all the things like
3007s	all of a sudden super light's changed
3009s	again either gyro's having fun or there
3012s	something's getting stuck in like
3014s	uh
3016s	you know
3017s	some level of
3020s	figuring out what i don't know either
3022s	way i like both of them
3026s	which one do you guys like the one that
3028s	you hear on the streams right now or the
3030s	one that you have available i'm curious
3034s	i'm legitimately curious
3041s	oh
3042s	oh that's problems
3044s	let's uh
3046s	reevaluate our positioning here
3054s	wow that's a lot of
3056s	that's a lot of bombers
3060s	all right
3066s	we probably need some better weapons
3068s	here let's um
3071s	oh
3079s	let's get closer to the base i'm sure
3081s	that'll help uh let's see
3085s	man all this stuff that's too high level
3087s	for us that's a little frustrating when
3089s	you're in a higher level location than
3091s	where you're currently at i wonder if
3093s	maybe something will inevitably be done
3095s	about that
3097s	um but anyway i think i'm gonna try and
3101s	oh yeah here we go let's let's modify
3103s	this
3105s	this'll this will be fun
3114s	because we didn't have enough control
3115s	over our ship before uh so now let's let
3117s	it just get pushed around
3122s	oh yeah that's much better much better
3131s	just the way i like
3144s	let's get this damage booster out of the
3145s	picture that way they're not doing as
3147s	much
3148s	it's basically like an aura effect a
3150s	passive
3152s	that just makes every every enemy have
3155s	greater damage nearby
3156s	of that
3157s	type
3161s	then we can't have that
3166s	this base is actually kind of big
3170s	it's more distance here
3179s	so many bombers all right we're gonna
3180s	have to take some of these guys out all
3182s	right first let's slow him down
3191s	oh
3201s	goodness gravy all right
3203s	all right
3213s	whoa challenge completed destroyed five
3215s	enemies in five seconds
3219s	and a level up that's uh
3221s	that's a welcome change to be sure
3230s	let's use our ultimate on the base
3232s	does that make sense right
3235s	bounce
3241s	that made things a lot easier actually
3242s	so cool
3249s	i got frozen again
3256s	oh look
3259s	he did a pretty healthy amount of damage
3261s	back to him because of that
3262s	reflection
3267s	feels pretty nice
3280s	very good very good very good
3290s	really would like to get these
3292s	missiles that are firing at me that'll
3294s	keep freezing me over oof
3299s	like this one oh my gosh
3305s	here's another quick change
3308s	which is why i was doing this particular
3309s	job
3311s	so if you look around you'll have
3313s	noticed that i'm dying but also
3316s	the contents of what gets dropped from
3319s	destructibles is now not just plasma
3322s	it's also scrap metal
3324s	yay i know some of you guys were like
3326s	really trying to figure out where to get
3328s	scrap metal uh yeah if you blow stuff up
3331s	now you have a greater chance of getting
3333s	scrap metal who'da thought
3336s	who would have thought
3337s	that blowing up stuff would yield scrap
3340s	metal
3341s	i know we're crazy
3346s	just like waiting to look over at chats
3348s	and be like but eric that's too
3349s	realistic i thought you were making more
3350s	of a fantasy-like game
3355s	oh
3356s	you guys
3357s	all right there we go
3358s	oh also look
3360s	isn't that fun you can see the uh
3363s	retaliator bomber shield uh does a
3365s	reflection
3373s	there we go
3376s	there we go
3384s	it was nice to destroy that drone before
3386s	he even left the hangar
3400s	so many chatters i love this you guys
3403s	are incredibly active while i'm trying
3405s	to like really focus in on
3407s	actually investing the space we're
3409s	almost there
3417s	all right now we should have a boston
3419s	coming yeah there you are
3441s	ah gosh dang it ah
3444s	ah this keeps happening
3446s	it's super cool looking
3449s	but dang
3450s	that's a ch that's that's cool i like
3453s	the
3454s	like you see the ship under the ice
3457s	because the that's i actually really dig
3459s	that that's that is aesthetically
3460s	pleasing to me anyway
3466s	all right there we go
3470s	yeah we really need some better gear
3471s	here
3475s	to do this faster we technically don't
3477s	need it but you know
3478s	oh
3479s	i like how i say that and then i
3481s	immediately die uh
3484s	perfect that's that's uh that's an
3486s	excellently timed statement
3490s	very good
3492s	anyway
3497s	so let's catch up on chat a little bit
3499s	but you can see there's a lot of
3501s	different components that are coming
3502s	together
3502s	we're realizing over the course of
3504s	development um a lot of this front
3506s	shield generator stuff where you're
3508s	probably getting a sense you're probably
3510s	getting a feeling
3512s	of how
3513s	the front shield uh based on how it
3516s	looks it's doing something very specific
3519s	so uh like whenever we're using our
3522s	front shield right now
3523s	um
3524s	in a normal setting it's showing up like
3527s	this sort of red orange sort of color
3531s	to indicate
3533s	uh normally it would be indicating
3536s	that it is retaliating
3541s	the opposing force
3544s	versus
3545s	maybe like the blue of the ironically
3548s	named retaliators
3550s	which is reflecting
3553s	the front
3554s	uh of the the weapons being shot at it
3559s	and maybe there would be another
3560s	different color uh
3562s	if it was rotating around your ship so
3565s	we see like a red
3566s	against cerulea we see a blue against
3570s	the retaliators or maybe a white
3572s	i'm not sure red red white
3574s	red white and blue
3578s	red white and blue
3584s	are there any marvel fans out there i'm
3585s	just really curious anyway
3591s	all right so we could do this mission
3593s	again or we could jump over and do some
3595s	questions hey
3598s	so let's go ahead and jump over to our
3600s	inventory space um and uh you just see
3603s	the mess that is oh my gosh what a what
3606s	a a garbagio mess in our inventory that
3610s	if i was playing this optically i would
3611s	uh clean it up a bit more
3614s	all right
3614s	so i think i missed a question uh from
3616s	earlier so sorry about that bill fersen
3619s	there um oh wait no no no we we actually
3622s	answered that about the cool things like
3624s	the solar storms and dirt nebula yeah so
3625s	we already answered that one sorry
3627s	we got you covered uh next up do
3629s	unguided rockets have a cool down now so
3631s	they are technically guided rockets but
3634s	there is a cooldown um so when you fire
3636s	them see the 0.2
3638s	uh per second fire rate means that you
3641s	have to wait a bit of time before firing
3643s	it again because the fire rate is how
3646s	many times you can fire right
3648s	so like in comparison like the jaeger
3651s	can fire five times per second
3655s	this can fire point two times per second
3658s	so quick maths tells me that it takes
3661s	five seconds for this to refresh
3663s	okay
3664s	so point two per second fire rate means
3666s	it takes five seconds
3668s	to uh fire um and this we made that cool
3672s	down applicable to all secondaries
3674s	so now like let's uh here let's
3679s	create a new secondary here
3684s	uh we'll just do standard homing
3686s	whistles why not
3688s	except uh so now when we go over to
3690s	these homing missiles
3694s	we gotta wait that 15 seconds because we
3696s	were technically in combat
3698s	somebody found us
3700s	slightly annoying but whatever all right
3704s	all right so now when we fire this
3706s	missile if you look directly below me
3710s	it doesn't do it on standard missiles oh
3712s	great what a fantastic example
3717s	wow i thought it was applied to all of
3719s	them apparently it's not just standard
3721s	homing i don't think it's on uh mines
3723s	yet yeah it doesn't work on mines i knew
3726s	that one
3729s	well
3732s	tell you what guys no matter how much
3734s	you prepare for something in your life
3737s	you're never fully gonna be prepared for
3738s	it let's try the emp missiles
3743s	oh yes we have to wait the 15 seconds
3745s	how convenient for a stream
3754s	all right okay
3756s	all right so emp missile we fire it
3759s	there you see see it now it shows you
3762s	the cooldown for how quickly you can
3764s	fire it back to back
3765s	that's what i'm trying to talk about
3769s	all right well now that that's out of
3771s	the way
3774s	goodness gravy
3777s	tell you what all right
3783s	so uh let's answer let's answer a couple
3786s	more questions because uh
3788s	woo
3789s	i know that they're stacking up
3791s	next question round here we go so
3793s	um
3796s	will that bypass location be fixed with
3797s	a hotfix or with the fall update great
3799s	question i have talked with some folks
3801s	internally i think that we
3804s	desire to do another hotfix
3806s	the chances of it are
3808s	low okay and i want to be clear on that
3811s	front as to why because i know some
3812s	people are like what why don't you just
3813s	push an update like every week you're
3816s	showing us this content why don't you
3817s	just let us play with it it's an early
3819s	access after all we should be able to do
3820s	that um so in short um you're kind of
3824s	right but also no um
3828s	in general
3829s	with every hotfix means we have to do
3832s	extra work in order to prepare all of
3834s	those files and all of that content in
3836s	order to redistribute it to all the
3838s	appropriate uh
3840s	facets um one in particular has been a
3843s	little bit of a thorn in our side i'm
3844s	not gonna say any names microsoft but
3847s	sometimes you can have these issues that
3849s	arise um that are just kind of
3851s	frustrating and they soak up a lot of
3853s	what could otherwise be used as
3855s	development time okay
3857s	and
3858s	we want to make the game
3859s	that's what it comes down to we give
3861s	these very massive chunks like the
3864s	summer update that you can start diving
3866s	into this new content to experience to
3868s	explore
3869s	we hotfix when there are major key
3872s	issues
3874s	right now
3876s	not being able to fast travel into drake
3879s	i know it's a little
3881s	frustrating maybe
3883s	maybe inconvenient is a better word
3886s	but it's not a main issue
3888s	it's not it's not
3891s	very crazy so um but we have been
3894s	picking up a couple of more
3898s	intimate
3900s	issues
3901s	that are making some gameplay
3902s	experiences fall a little under and
3905s	because of those we might push a hotfix
3908s	and if we do
3909s	that would come included with the mix
3912s	okay
3913s	so
3914s	cool
3916s	basically i said all of those words to
3918s	basically say
3920s	it's a possibility but don't get any
3922s	expectations
3924s	but i feel like the context behind that
3926s	something like that is incredibly
3928s	important guys it really is it really is
3931s	all right couple more questions and then
3933s	we'll get back into more uh me exploding
3935s	i suppose i gotta fix this layout that's
3938s	what i gotta do
3939s	uh next question
3941s	uh will there be more tweaking to the
3943s	renowned job system for example in
3945s	relation rewards yes there will straight
3947s	up there's gonna be more rewards uh
3949s	different rewards
3950s	um i don't know if they've actually been
3952s	implemented here so i might show
3954s	something i'm not supposed to we're
3955s	gonna see
3956s	nope it hasn't been changed uh so yeah
3959s	like the rewards down here this is
3961s	actually something that will change
3962s	guaranteed 100 percent um so yeah
3966s	straight up telling you that
3972s	um in relation to
3974s	the job type i see the rest of your
3977s	question um it's just gonna kind of be
3979s	randomized based on the job but the jobs
3981s	are always going to have a more
3982s	equivalent credit and experience value
3985s	based on that job
3987s	whereas the rewards are just kind of a
3988s	toss-up so if you see an outlaw based
3991s	destruction that gives you
3995s	i don't know uh it's
3997s	a
3998s	pair of socks
4000s	and you have a mind sweeping job and it
4002s	gives you
4003s	14
4004s	star forged items like
4008s	go for that job i don't know why you
4010s	wouldn't be choosing the minesweeper job
4012s	uh it's very preferential um
4015s	but obviously we would like there to be
4016s	a little bit more of uh
4019s	elasticity towards the itemization
4022s	regarding what you are doing so
4024s	jobs are something that's going to
4026s	continue to get refinements all the way
4028s	up to 1.0 release and probably even
4030s	after so
4031s	it's just one of those things
4033s	it's just one of those things all right
4034s	last question and before we jump into
4036s	more
4037s	will alec eventually have wingmen when
4040s	he jumps in to help like in everspace
4042s	one everspace one was the progression of
4045s	ellick
4046s	of being a lowly scrub and to becoming
4049s	something of a force to be reckoned with
4052s	due to his newfound position
4055s	through
4057s	more or less bribing the clone right
4060s	the clown helped ella get to the
4062s	position of power that he obtained when
4064s	the clone vanished
4066s	uh you know and started working for gmb
4069s	and wasn't able to help out alec anymore
4071s	alec may or may not have abused his
4074s	power misused his power which is why he
4076s	kind of maybe got thrown out of the
4078s	coalition um
4080s	more stuff weren't expecting that for a
4082s	response so um because of those events
4086s	um alex probably not gonna rise back up
4089s	to power
4091s	with the coalition but since he's a part
4094s	of your kind of independent home base
4097s	faction if you will like the clone
4099s	faction we'll call it i don't know it's
4101s	kind of a random whatever um he has this
4104s	squad which is kind of you
4107s	so it's not another faction that's
4109s	swooping in to save him anymore he's
4111s	found
4112s	how resourceful he becomes when he is in
4116s	operation in tandem
4118s	with you as the maker all right
4121s	lots of big answers today but i love
4123s	these questions
4128s	yes when you are flying at stuff in
4130s	super light
4131s	it will change to where you can't just
4134s	fly through it
4135s	that will that will be changed
4141s	that's just something we haven't worked
4143s	on because it was creating a the bit the
4146s	line in the short of it is that was
4148s	creating a major issue with development
4151s	um so we removed it so we could just
4154s	work on stuff that mattered uh and we'll
4156s	plug it back in or rather fix it i
4158s	should say
4160s	where planets asteroids other
4163s	cosmic entities
4166s	will actually have proximity
4170s	so that the proximity alert is valid
4176s	so i do like that question
4181s	another product of early access
4185s	oh my goodness
4187s	and now i'm not saying early access
4189s	there is an excuse by the way i'm just
4190s	saying
4191s	this is because we're still working on
4193s	it i'm not saying it as an excuse that
4196s	we're not gonna we're not gonna fix it
4198s	like we are absolutely gonna fix it
4200s	i wanna be clear i never say oh yeah
4202s	early access just to like
4204s	discredit or invalidate your guys
4206s	questions or thoughts because i think
4208s	this is a good question
4210s	it's just something that we've
4212s	moved to do later
4215s	due to the nature of how it is coded and
4218s	the struggles that it creates
4221s	so that we can instead focus on the
4222s	important content
4228s	any thought about adjusting crafting yes
4230s	straight up just
4231s	yes um we are we are very likely going
4235s	to make some adjustments on crafting um
4237s	like with how certain things are crafted
4239s	themselves
4241s	um
4244s	oh hey alec we were just talking about
4245s	you
4248s	let me see if i can get the rest of that
4249s	question um should be able to modify
4252s	crafted gear at least be able to add a
4254s	catalyst uh so actually no that's
4256s	probably not going to be changed
4258s	we want crafted gear to be just that
4261s	crafting
4262s	you need something in the pinch
4265s	you need to
4266s	actually right now is a great example
4268s	because i don't like our stuff we need
4270s	to make something that's better
4272s	so instead of
4278s	uh so instead of like using something
4280s	that we found i was hoping that we
4282s	actually found something decent
4286s	uh what we can do here
4288s	as we can
4289s	craft something
4291s	that could very much be better
4295s	if i actually had crafting bad example
4297s	again because i don't have stuff to
4299s	crack but whatever we'll do a blaster
4300s	which is clearly worse
4302s	ah
4303s	whatever
4306s	if we were building up our crafting
4307s	accordingly the save file was important
4311s	now i'm making excuses anyway uh but
4314s	yeah that we very much don't want
4316s	modified equipment to be or excuse me we
4319s	don't want
4320s	crafted stuff to be modifiable
4323s	if you want the best stuff you've got to
4325s	earn it you've got to find it that's how
4328s	we want it to be
4341s	all right there we go
4343s	and obviously that will
4345s	trail off the further you get to the
4347s	game
4348s	so especially primaries and secondaries
4350s	that's going to be more appealing to
4351s	craft on your progression forward
4355s	whereas when you get to the end game
4357s	crafting primaries and secondaries is
4359s	all but going to vanish but there's
4360s	still a lot of legitimacy to crafting
4364s	your consumables
4366s	and to crafting catalysts
4368s	and to crafting components that are
4370s	needed for you know those things
4374s	so uh yeah the whole system kind of
4376s	revolves around that progression if you
4378s	will
4382s	new reflect shots mode would totally
4384s	near instantly destroy gas harvester
4386s	boss was this uber later wouldn't it did
4388s	you try um it's not accessible until
4390s	after that bus
4394s	i could cheat and plug it into the game
4397s	for that specific boss but even still he
4400s	has an invincibility shield whenever he
4403s	fires that beam so you couldn't reflect
4405s	it back to do any damage anyway oh my
4407s	god
4409s	unfortunately
4415s	[Applause]
4421s	all right
4422s	let's answer some more questions as i
4424s	explode the things
4426s	last month scrap metal oh it's so nice
4428s	getting scrap metal from these sources
4429s	i'd like freeze oh gosh oh my goodness
4432s	i've got this
4435s	that frost man
4436s	that frost is brutal all right well now
4438s	i've got plenty of time to answer some
4440s	more questions
4444s	i might need to uh jump over to a
4447s	different save
4448s	to show actual competence
4450s	uh
4455s	ah
4456s	that's fine it's fine we'll revert back
4460s	to
4461s	the base though
4464s	is the shield generator the only new
4465s	device being added so far or is there
4467s	several on the way planned but you can't
4468s	talk about them now correct
4471s	yeah we're not done with devices
4473s	why do warrants don't turn into black
4474s	holes uh for gamification purposes
4477s	honestly in everspace one uh for the
4480s	roguelike formula it made a bit more
4482s	sense for them to be
4484s	volatile so that when you engage them
4486s	you have to be careful to not lose your
4488s	run
4489s	and everspace 2
4491s	it would just be annoying you go up to
4494s	that ancient mission and what the who's
4495s	it's over in you know uh the kite nebula
4499s	right you're like doing the mission and
4501s	it's like a big old boss battle over at
4504s	where the heck is that ancient citadel
4505s	what's thorium no it's the charber tower
4508s	you do this big battle at charber tower
4510s	after you've done all the different
4511s	puzzling little things to set everything
4514s	up
4514s	you're like man i don't want to do that
4516s	again because puzzles in this game are
4518s	dumb
4520s	some people um
4522s	and after you've done all that then you
4524s	have to fight this ancient warden you
4526s	kill it and it explodes into a black
4527s	hole which instantly kills you so it
4529s	resets the entire mission to the
4531s	beginning so you have to like do all the
4533s	things again that would not be fun uh
4536s	because of the nature of the
4538s	progression of everspace 2 instead of
4541s	being in a roguelike loop and now it
4544s	being in a more pseudo-open-world rpg
4547s	progression of power and of character
4550s	development and stuff like that
4553s	it doesn't make a lot of sense to have
4554s	things that just instantly kill you
4557s	it's not fun
4559s	because then it's like i have to reload
4561s	and try this again in the exact same way
4563s	just as before and that's no so that's
4566s	why that's honestly why
4568s	[Music]
4569s	gamification
4572s	uh will there be something like gmb
4574s	distress beacons
4576s	there are gmb distress beacons oh you
4578s	mean like as a consumable like a
4580s	returning everspace one consumable um
4586s	[Music]
4595s	[Music]
4600s	i'm really thinking hard about this so
4602s	um
4604s	i think you're talking about a
4605s	consumable maybe
4608s	question mark
4610s	ah
4612s	i don't think you're talking about kazoo
4613s	i need more clarity on that one
4615s	because there are distress beacons that
4617s	show up the option to gain distance
4619s	rather than meet them head on
4621s	um like distress signals show up gmb
4624s	needs help if that's what you're talking
4626s	about
4629s	here let's uh let's
4630s	let's go somewhere else in drake let's
4632s	um let's go to a site that we haven't
4635s	been to
4637s	let's go to the coalition cargo terminal
4639s	which might have something that's
4640s	appealing to you all
4642s	that should be nice that should be good
4648s	for all the rockfish games crew what
4650s	ship would you each of you like to see
4652s	either built or rebuilt in physical form
4654s	says dashra who's put together a lot of
4656s	the ships uh with the little i forget
4659s	whether it's snapships or whatever
4665s	i want to see
4668s	the um
4671s	the ship that commissioner hawk flies
4673s	the colonial cruiser
4676s	put that one together please
4678s	that would make me happy
4681s	can you fire a full sava of unguided
4682s	rockets just curious how the fire rate
4684s	cooldown works with them now i feel like
4685s	i've seen that question before this is
4687s	probably an older question so uh my
4689s	apologies for not getting to them very
4690s	fast but i'll fire these as fast as
4693s	possible
4701s	that is legitimately how long it takes
4702s	to fire them
4704s	okay let's go catch up
4714s	i don't know what i was expecting um but
4716s	there you go
4728s	i think the system recovery routine
4729s	consumable could be buffed a bit maybe
4731s	adding some status immunity time would
4733s	be nice the system recovery routine
4736s	the what isn't that the one that
4738s	legitimately like
4739s	allows you to use
4742s	wait which one which one is that which
4744s	hey can you help explain the game to me
4746s	who should know everything about the
4747s	game really quick can you
4749s	which one's the system recovery routine
4751s	i can't see any here so i don't have a
4753s	cheat sheet
4756s	isn't that the one that like
4758s	it does that's oh my gosh the freaking
4763s	removes debuffs okay
4766s	thank you thank you crispy muffin i look
4768s	over
4770s	um
4771s	no the one that removes debuffs i feel
4773s	like uh that one's insanely good already
4777s	if it also lasted for an x period of
4779s	time i feel like it's just even more
4781s	good the fact that you can use them like
4783s	back to backs like if you use one you
4785s	get everything cleared you get hit
4786s	unfortunately you use another one that's
4788s	so
4789s	that's already very powerful
4792s	that's already very powerful also we
4794s	don't want to be at three we want to be
4796s	over here we're at the wrong base
4799s	let's go over here
4804s	ships and supplies why am i being
4806s	incredibly clear about what
4809s	i'm doing
4811s	maybe it's because something at this
4813s	location
4814s	might be relevant
4816s	for purchases in the future
4819s	just pointing it out
4821s	that is all
4824s	but also there's another way to obtain
4826s	this so that you guys are aware
4829s	you do not have to go all the way
4831s	through the entire game to get the front
4834s	shield generator you can actually find
4835s	it sooner
4838s	as i've already alluded to however it is
4840s	after the end of zarkov because of that
4843s	particular bus
4845s	but i digress
4848s	i digress
4850s	all right
4851s	in particular i die
4854s	a bit during the stream today
4856s	grass
4859s	all right
4863s	let's look around a little bit more in
4864s	this territory because i know that
4866s	there's some things popping up and
4867s	there's some stuff that shows internal
4870s	look at that
4872s	that softened ui that means that there
4874s	should be a way to get in here
4876s	is this a crack or a crevice i think it
4878s	is
4879s	oh yeah
4880s	like a glove
4883s	i'm sure there's a way to get in here
4886s	sure i didn't try this earlier and got
4889s	completely
4890s	wrecked
4893s	anyway
4895s	ooh titanium
4906s	i love exploring internal environments i
4908s	was a big fan of descent whenever i was
4910s	younger so
4911s	i'm sure there's a lot of you guys out
4913s	there too who would kind of agree with
4915s	that
4917s	um but we we took a bit of inspiration
4920s	from dissent in making this game
4923s	of course descent was like
4925s	all internal spaces if you like remember
4927s	the original descent
4929s	but uh
4931s	yeah anyway
4934s	i went the wrong way didn't i i did
4936s	whoops all right quick timeout do some
4939s	questions
4945s	how's the team feel about
4947s	uh the rng layering
4951s	of buffs on weapons like grade plus
4954s	prefix plus damage catalyst uh how do we
4956s	feel about that um
4959s	good
4963s	we like being able to um
4966s	like
4967s	take these wacky and obtuse and frankly
4970s	speaking powerful combinations to
4972s	generate something so much better
4975s	so like right now
4977s	my
4978s	level and the number of mainframe
4980s	expansions i have and the gear that i
4982s	have
4983s	i am in a little bit of a pickle based
4985s	on the location
4987s	that i reside in specifically drake as a
4990s	whole like you can see there's purple up
4992s	here which indicate that it's at least
4994s	two or more levels higher than me and so
4996s	you can immediately tell that these ones
4998s	that are gray are probably either close
5000s	to my level or still above um now that
5002s	being said um
5004s	you know
5007s	there are so many different discussions
5008s	that can be had about level scaling
5009s	they're still being tweaked it's still
5011s	being modified it will be until the day
5013s	we die not let alone until the 1.0
5015s	release uh but yeah that's
5017s	stuff that we will continue to improve
5019s	upon but otherwise yeah i mean if you're
5021s	finding ways to like
5023s	stack your weaponry like you get star
5026s	forged with a catalyst that does a
5028s	really powerful thing and you know
5030s	that's great that's great we want you
5032s	guys to stack we want you guys to like
5034s	make things absurd and go crazy with it
5036s	for your particular builds you earn that
5039s	through the natural progression of the
5040s	game right like whether you are devoting
5042s	a lot of time to crafting or you're
5043s	doing a lot of exploration uh you know
5046s	inevitably you will find stuff that is
5048s	good
5049s	and we want you to be able to capitalize
5051s	on that for sure
5053s	we absolutely want you to do that so
5056s	yeah we feel pretty good about it
5062s	if your question was more in line to
5066s	how random it will be that's always
5068s	something that's going to be continued
5069s	to tweak
5071s	we'll continue to tweet
5072s	so
5073s	yeah
5075s	thanks for that question
5076s	uh here's another one before we dive
5079s	back into the action there are some rare
5081s	and special weapons in the game like the
5083s	executioner or the disintegrator yes
5085s	these are variants we call them variants
5088s	but they don't have blueprints correct
5089s	any idea when we will be able to get a
5091s	blueprint on them so originally the
5093s	crafting worked to where
5095s	if you crafted say a primary
5099s	uh a pulse laser
5101s	you could randomly get a jaeger you
5103s	could randomly get
5105s	a uh pulse laser stuff like that but we
5108s	felt like that was actually too much so
5111s	we scaled back the crafting and when i
5113s	say we felt like i'm not saying just
5116s	internally we didn't think about it very
5117s	much we're like oh
5119s	why spend a thought on it let's just ah
5121s	no like it was based on feedback it was
5123s	based on internal testing it was based
5125s	on a number of factors we felt like we
5128s	want to keep crafting in a more
5130s	simplified format to fill those gaps
5133s	it's kind of something we were talking
5134s	about earlier right so
5136s	added blueprints of variance in here it
5140s	starts looking a little bit um
5144s	too diverse
5146s	for what we're trying to supply in
5148s	regards to what primaries and
5151s	secondaries do in this crafting
5153s	territory
5155s	so it's not likely
5157s	if at all
5158s	that those style of blueprints for
5160s	variants will show up
5162s	modifying
5164s	these specialty equipment
5167s	however is very possible maybe this is
5169s	what we need to do maybe we need to
5171s	install a catalyst here
5176s	let's do that
5182s	we have a powerful [ __ ] all right um
5196s	can we get a salvo setting of sorts for
5198s	the rockets
5200s	so you can set it to fire one to five
5203s	rockets per click i feel such a setting
5205s	would be justified because there's so
5206s	many
5207s	a salvo setting of sorts for the rockets
5211s	that's getting into
5213s	preferential territory which i'll just
5216s	straight up tell you we don't want to
5218s	add features like that
5220s	um
5222s	because that's adding an extra layer of
5225s	depth to the game that would already
5227s	make things
5229s	the balance side of things was going to
5230s	get wonky okay that's what i'm trying to
5232s	say so basically like we design
5234s	intentionally certain weapons that can
5236s	fire from all hardpoints at once versus
5238s	other ones that don't instead of it
5240s	being just a modifier that generates on
5242s	the item right um same thing applies to
5245s	secondaries could there be a secondary
5247s	in the future that fires from two
5249s	different hardpoints at the same time
5251s	it's possible it's possible could there
5253s	be a second area that fires a salvo of
5256s	missiles in the future
5261s	it's possible um look okay
5266s	i loved that weapon in everspace one
5268s	okay if it doesn't return i'm gonna have
5270s	words to say to my co-workers anyway my
5273s	point is
5274s	is that um that's an extra level of
5276s	customization that we just don't feel is
5278s	necessary
5279s	um i get what you're what you want to
5281s	accomplish through that it's just
5283s	again this is preferential you can still
5286s	accomplish a great many tasks without uh
5288s	that ability
5291s	um
5292s	i completely forgot where i'm at in this
5294s	cave
5295s	uh everything since i'm in these
5297s	conversations i think i made progress
5301s	i'm just in loops now oh my gosh
5304s	goodness gravy
5309s	oh my gosh but also that would be an
5310s	absolute ridiculous amount of damage and
5312s	we do have lock durations and cooldowns
5314s	and stuff like that applied
5316s	intentionally for at least some
5317s	semblance of balance
5321s	not that somebody's going to find a way
5322s	to break it anyway all right um
5326s	uh
5328s	you were talking about everspace one
5329s	distressed beacons to call in gmb
5331s	fighters to help oh my gosh like i was
5333s	thinking about oh my gosh laureen okay
5335s	so i have to clarify i have to defend
5337s	myself here what i was thinking about
5339s	was the
5340s	um like the the terrine
5343s	and throng beacons
5345s	where you call them in and then you have
5347s	like opportunities to trade i was
5348s	thinking is there a gmb one for that my
5350s	brain was in a weird place okay also i'm
5352s	getting out of here because i'm confused
5354s	um
5356s	that's this is a pretty scene though
5358s	it's pretty seen like coming out and
5360s	just being oh hello there hello there
5362s	bass that exists
5364s	and the cover of
5366s	asteroid-ness
5368s	uh
5369s	but yeah so
5371s	uh yeah no in regards to calling in gmb
5374s	reinforcements or
5376s	any way to call in reinforcements at all
5380s	um
5381s	there has definitely been discussions
5382s	internally about what that would look
5383s	like and you've even seen it firsthand
5385s	and how it's not working as intended
5388s	whenever i was showcasing high-risk
5390s	areas
5391s	kind of like an earlier state for
5393s	example
5394s	we got to see how ellick can completely
5397s	bork
5398s	the challenge of a high risk area
5400s	because it's not that he does a lot of
5402s	damage it's that he pulls off so much
5404s	damage
5406s	pulls away like he distracts all the
5408s	fires he pulls aggression it's like he's
5410s	taunting them
5411s	so that you can go do your own thing and
5414s	that
5416s	well
5417s	that creates kind of the issues that we
5419s	don't want to we don't want to see
5424s	so if we were to add something like that
5426s	it would have to be
5427s	probably more
5431s	specific in regards to how it's utilized
5435s	how it's applied
5443s	and uh yeah
5445s	that's kind of that
5450s	hopefully that makes sense
5455s	oh is this yes
5458s	yes i'm actually glad that i uh was able
5460s	to do this oh i can't pause i can't i
5462s	can't
5463s	i can't pause right now okay that's
5464s	that's fine um i wanted to talk about
5467s	how the drone mesh has actually changed
5469s	for the player so it um
5473s	oh stop i just want to show i just want
5475s	to show you can see that it doesn't have
5476s	legs anymore like its legs were just cut
5479s	off and it also looks a bit cleaner
5484s	man that
5487s	it uh it's definitely
5490s	hard to see
5493s	in regards to oh gosh oh goodness
5496s	oh
5497s	oh we can buff out those scratches um
5500s	with all the shaking but regardless uh
5503s	we did in fact change
5505s	we did in fact change that too
5508s	wow
5509s	goodness
5511s	you guys have had so many questions
5512s	today i'm like trying to power through
5514s	them while showing content this is
5515s	absurd oh my goodness but i love this i
5518s	love this so much i wouldn't change it
5519s	for the world uh let me just do a quick
5521s	double check and make sure i've got i've
5523s	got through all the content um and then
5525s	we'll finish up your questions as well
5527s	thank you so much for being here you
5529s	guys have all been a blast it's been so
5530s	good uh yeah so destructible structures
5533s	now drop scrap metal uh cerulea drone
5536s	damage was reduced
5537s	um
5540s	there were a couple other tweaks i
5541s	haven't talked about yet but those will
5542s	those will come in time don't worry
5543s	about it new drone mesh
5546s	we have
5548s	reduced
5549s	uh
5549s	[Music]
5552s	no we increased the range of secondary
5554s	weapons with the scout expertise we
5556s	added the cruise missile we
5558s	changed the perk screen layout we have
5560s	the front shield generator device um and
5565s	the secondaries now have a cool down
5566s	indicator some
5568s	some secondaries that should say some
5571s	secondaries uh now have
5574s	a cool down
5576s	generator am i right oh my gosh
5580s	all right let's try this one more time
5583s	now i'm actually gonna like attempt to
5584s	do this properly
5587s	wow i i don't know how many of you guys
5589s	play with screen shake i'm told to to
5591s	use it during these live streams because
5593s	it creates a more
5595s	realistic experience even though i don't
5597s	know why we would need to create a more
5599s	realistic experience when it's not
5601s	supposed to whatever um
5604s	but hey oh look now we can see the drone
5605s	in me cute
5608s	can we turn off those lights no
5610s	they be cute
5616s	any adorable
5618s	don't you like him isn't he your friend
5620s	now
5621s	here can we ah yeah there we go it's
5623s	kind of like photo mode
5627s	isn't that great
5629s	adorable
5636s	wonderful
5638s	squad nine
5642s	all right let's hack this terminal
5647s	can we name the drone he already has a
5648s	name
5654s	powerful jaeger
5656s	and a maverick prime zapper
5665s	that feels bad man that just
5668s	that's almost like it just kicked
5671s	us when we're already down how dare you
5675s	getting
5676s	stuff
5677s	a level below
5680s	is painful isn't it maybe something
5682s	should be done about that all right so
5683s	i'm gonna put this corrosion mine up
5685s	here
5687s	i'm gonna scrap all this crap
5694s	i'm gonna keep the equalizer because i
5695s	need the kinetic damage actually
5697s	so
5698s	yeah there we go
5700s	fun oh time we should probably uh swap
5703s	over and look at some of your guys
5704s	screenshots
5706s	so let's go ahead and
5708s	we'll just dock at this space this is
5710s	fine
5711s	uh no the base is over there
5720s	beautiful
5723s	we'll get a little stoppy stop
5726s	action going on we might also pick up
5728s	another ship by the way because i was
5729s	looking at uh where's it at
5732s	uh the banshee earlier i was like oh man
5734s	that could be really fun to show like
5735s	the new changes that the expertise is
5737s	actually working
5739s	um
5740s	and the ships changed since i looked at
5742s	these last cause there was also a
5744s	vanguard which i actually haven't shown
5746s	how the alt was changed way back when
5749s	it's live in your version um but the alt
5752s	the slowdown of the alt is actually
5754s	fixed to where you actually gain speed
5757s	you're faster
5758s	and if you haven't tried that out
5760s	definitely do so if you're a vanguard
5762s	player or if you are have steered clear
5764s	from the vanguard because you felt the
5765s	alt sucks um it is a healthy bit better
5768s	so
5769s	anyway so saving that
5772s	uh and then i'm also going to just
5774s	reload
5775s	the perk update to show one more time
5778s	for anybody who missed it i just want to
5779s	give an authentic look at it i've been
5781s	saying authentic a lot
5784s	that you recognize when you start
5786s	talking um but yeah so the base change
5789s	here is that the perks now show you
5791s	their progression before you've unlocked
5793s	them
5795s	so like dla is a really sound example of
5797s	that right um you can see everything
5800s	that it does you don't have to wonder oh
5802s	it's this is level two of six i don't
5805s	know what three four five and six do or
5806s	if i should care well now you can care
5808s	now you can actually see
5812s	now you can actually see so yeah
5813s	definitely something that we
5814s	intentionally did
5816s	um
5817s	for you guys it was i think i think this
5820s	one was partially a community request
5822s	like we hadn't really thought about it
5823s	until somebody mentioned it and they
5824s	were like oh yeah we should probably end
5827s	up doing this um either from a steam
5830s	forum or i think it was a steam forum
5832s	post
5833s	um
5834s	but i think tease was already doing this
5836s	anyway you just hadn't implemented it
5838s	yet whatever
5841s	whatever i'm just glad that we're on the
5843s	same page of things that can make our
5845s	lives a little bit easier
5847s	um
5849s	showing off the ochre home worlds or way
5852s	of life in the main story with add-ons
5854s	in the future pertaining to the oh car
5856s	uh ask bill farson uh oh
5859s	uh oh can you still hear me
5863s	something just disconnected on my
5864s	computer
5869s	the stream is going to be challenged
5871s	here in these last couple minutes i'm
5872s	sure it is so without further ado then
5875s	let's jump over and start talking about
5876s	the screenshots you guys have collected
5878s	this last week
5880s	oh my goodness
5882s	there was one other question that i saw
5884s	and it was pertaining to
5886s	um
5887s	a little bit unfortunate but it was
5889s	pertaining to the um
5892s	rockfish recaps so i know that i said
5895s	last week that it was delayed right and
5897s	well obviously it is because we're
5898s	nearing the end of the month now we're
5900s	the over the halfway point and we
5901s	haven't seen a recap for july
5905s	um guys i i promise you we will get the
5907s	recaps out there uh sometimes it's just
5909s	a process you know um so thank you for
5912s	your patience as we work on those recaps
5915s	to present to you guys you know there's
5917s	a number of factors um and and details
5920s	that we are taking care of over here at
5922s	rockfish games and sometimes the
5924s	creation of a video just doesn't take
5926s	priority um it's
5928s	you know it's just part of the process
5930s	of development it's just part of the
5932s	process so
5934s	i'm just glad that we're able to do the
5935s	recaps at all uh frankly speaking
5939s	but i do have to have the time this
5940s	space to bring them to life so um the
5943s	july rockfish recap will in fact make
5946s	its appearance soon
5948s	uh
5950s	and then closely followed by the august
5953s	uh but yeah so let's go ahead and dive
5956s	right into the screenshots that you guys
5958s	have been collecting um a lot of fun
5960s	really cool um i think i caught up on
5962s	all the questions so um
5965s	neat
5967s	this first one comes from crispy muffin
5969s	crispy muffin said that he was this was
5972s	the this is like the gang wars three the
5974s	final battle thing he was his computer
5976s	was
5977s	being a little bit of a butt was heating
5979s	up considerably um chugging away but i
5983s	love some of the shots that he captured
5984s	i love this one and how frantic how
5986s	chaotic it is
5987s	with both the zurelia and the
5989s	retaliators duking it out
5992s	um
5993s	as everything's just getting pummeled to
5995s	death
5997s	uh very good action shot i feel like
6001s	um
6002s	and we also have another one from crispy
6004s	muffin who does a really great job of
6007s	these
6009s	action shots i want to say i love this
6011s	coming out of the water and you guys did
6013s	too there were several of you who thumbs
6015s	this up in the discord so i had to grab
6017s	it
6018s	show it to y'all because i dig it i
6020s	think it's great we have another one
6022s	from crispy muffin i do these in order
6024s	by the way anybody who's wondering like
6026s	why'd you do three crispy muffins and
6027s	then go over to another person and come
6028s	back to crispy it's because i do it in
6030s	chronological order from last week um
6033s	and you guys like to do photo dumps so
6035s	i'll choose a couple i usually try to
6037s	just take one but if there's a grouping
6039s	of some really cool ones i tried to take
6041s	a couple this one's also from crispy
6043s	muffin as well but i love the way that
6045s	we've got this ship getting ready to be
6048s	exploded from that missile like it just
6051s	mere milliseconds to live
6054s	uh just i love i love it i love it so
6056s	much
6068s	oh my gosh
6070s	look over the chat video is not taking
6072s	development
6074s	shade opaque devs admitting it doesn't
6076s	take precedence while in a transparent
6078s	stream that happens weekly uh streaming
6081s	and creating content videos two
6083s	different things i want to point that
6084s	out
6086s	anyway
6088s	but that did make me chuckle a little so
6090s	thank you for that all right next up we
6091s	got kazaa um and a nice clean shot
6096s	ships zipping through space you love to
6098s	see it you got some pleasant colorations
6100s	going on you love to see it
6102s	soft gentle tones
6104s	give you an expanse of the world i love
6107s	it
6109s	i love it
6112s	oh i see some of you guys are reading
6113s	the the um marquee down below good good
6117s	as you should as you should there's
6118s	sometimes spoilers in there sometimes
6120s	i'm gonna like try to throw you off
6122s	but yeah you know
6124s	a day in the life of everspace person
6127s	you're gonna have news sources that are
6128s	weird and fun
6132s	all right next up we've got
6136s	kazaa again
6138s	and this should look pretty familiar
6140s	since we were just there today and we
6142s	died several times we died a lot today i
6144s	think i'm gonna i think i'm gonna update
6146s	the save file so um not that i don't
6149s	enjoy a challenge but when i'm
6151s	showcasing a lot of stuff you probably
6152s	don't like seeing me just die you'd much
6154s	rather see the content being shown so
6156s	i'm probably gonna boost that up for
6157s	next week's stream
6159s	um you know just to simplify the process
6161s	we can also show off those level 25
6163s	perks in action i think that would be a
6164s	healthy thing
6166s	but i do love the way that kazaa
6167s	captures this get that full scene of a
6170s	completely destroyed station
6174s	a lot of challenges have definitely
6177s	been present in the drake system between
6179s	these vying factions
6181s	and it is of no surprise or
6184s	at least it shouldn't be
6185s	uh that any
6187s	any base whatsoever while it's military
6189s	civilian
6191s	scientific what have you
6193s	it's not going to last long in a place
6195s	of turmoil
6198s	the chemical bro always given us some
6200s	fantastic vertical shots
6204s	wow i love it i love the dark
6211s	ordering
6213s	that he implemented in this shot
6216s	it puts
6217s	the entire focus on this
6220s	with all of these added details on the
6222s	frame
6223s	that comes together so beautifully so
6225s	very nice shot
6227s	very nice shot the chemical bro
6229s	love it
6235s	i see that there's more questions coming
6236s	in that's great uh geekbite if you can
6238s	uh keep plugging those in and i'll uh
6241s	i'll check them out here in a moment or
6242s	two
6243s	[Music]
6245s	um speaking of gig bite uh we have this
6248s	shot uh i think it's from a while back
6250s	maybe or maybe it's more recent i'm not
6252s	sure um
6253s	but yeah i've taken a photo of the
6256s	wreckage over at uh kryptos full the
6260s	recycling plant
6262s	it's always nice to see photos of like
6264s	these previous locations because
6266s	sometimes you get them captured in a
6267s	unique way that you weren't looking at
6269s	them before i just seeing how
6271s	desolate this site is
6273s	uh it's kind of a good reminder about
6275s	how out of hand
6278s	gmb has kind of gotten with their
6279s	technologies and replacements and and
6282s	how much uh just chaos generally happens
6285s	with the replacement of technology and
6286s	all of the various leftover colonial
6289s	tech from the ocar colonial conflict
6292s	really got so
6293s	pretty cool stuff
6295s	uh it's very recent okay awesome awesome
6298s	we have excel who was excelling in the
6302s	photo department
6304s	that's terrible anyway i love it i love
6306s	this shot i love how everything is
6308s	exploding it's just super cool
6311s	very very rad i love the scout
6315s	and just not giving a single care in the
6318s	world as it is blasting out of that
6321s	conquesting its
6323s	massive prey
6326s	super neat
6328s	i dig it
6329s	next up we've got another one from excel
6333s	this is hilarious this is kind of how i
6336s	felt actually in the the stream today
6339s	where this is the player
6341s	hello
6343s	and these are all the shots
6347s	ah it's beautiful
6349s	very nice very nice strong feeling of
6352s	how the game is completely rigged
6354s	against you
6356s	good shot
6360s	we also have the chemical bro providing
6362s	another fantastic vertical shot
6367s	that framing though it's so nice
6370s	it's so pleasant
6372s	this looks like something you'd see like
6373s	in like a photoshop tutorial you know
6375s	it's like somebody's like oh come make a
6377s	planet it takes 10 minutes and like
6379s	follow the layer progression whatever
6381s	and then just like your background the
6383s	fact that this actually exists in the
6384s	game and then freaking
6387s	the chemical bros all like i don't know
6389s	i want to do something for like a
6391s	a
6392s	screenshot on my phone
6394s	like i love how it's so centralized
6396s	where if you did put this on your phone
6398s	uh it would actually i'm trying to get
6399s	like a sensation yeah that would totally
6402s	work
6403s	like you'd have all your data right
6405s	there i love it
6406s	that's a great shot for a
6410s	phone background
6411s	very very cool
6413s	we have a slew from high barf as well he
6416s	sent a lot in um
6419s	this one seemed to get a lot of
6421s	attention from others um it also does a
6423s	really good job of showcasing his
6425s	particular style and you guys know this
6427s	i love highlighting the styles that you
6430s	choose and seeing the colors that you
6432s	mishmash
6433s	and um you know the lights as well it
6436s	does such a good job of
6438s	creating that added pop and here it's no
6440s	different you know even though that the
6442s	paint scheme on the wings has this red
6444s	and this blue
6446s	um the highlights
6448s	being in green
6451s	it's
6451s	it almost it's almost like a poisonous
6454s	frog it's giving me like poisonous frog
6456s	vibes like a poisonous amphibian
6460s	that's what i like that's what i like to
6462s	see
6463s	i'm getting ready to strike with a bunch
6464s	of corrosion
6466s	or something
6467s	very very cool
6470s	all right then we also have an
6471s	individual named dark chaos who loves
6473s	these almost panoramic shots and these
6476s	are very detailed shots by the way like
6478s	we can keep zooming in a bit um like
6480s	this looks like a single photo but then
6482s	this is also a single photo and then
6484s	this is also a single photo um he puts
6487s	these together with a lot of attention
6489s	to detail and they come together
6491s	incredibly well um all of these by the
6493s	way that i've pulled are available on
6495s	discord in our screenshots channel so if
6497s	you are wanting to
6499s	maybe pull one for a photo or a desktop
6502s	or you know whatever you have that
6504s	accessibility at your fingertips okay um
6508s	very very cool shot like i almost feel
6509s	like you could have this like a slow
6511s	panning sort of
6513s	i know experience somewhere you could
6515s	plug it in
6516s	very nice very neat maybe it would go
6518s	this way though so the ship looks like
6520s	it's moving across the screen but i
6522s	digress
6523s	i digress i love it
6525s	very neat dark chaos keep it up wizard
6527s	jerry also throwing in one for the mix
6531s	just want to highlight him
6533s	there you go
6534s	wizardry i don't think posts a lot of
6536s	screenshots and you know when you guys
6539s	try out posting a screenshot for the
6541s	first time i like to give you the
6542s	highlights so people can judge you very
6544s	critically and very harshly whether you
6546s	should be taking screenshots anymore not
6550s	i'm kidding but am i i'm okay all right
6554s	i think that has turned out pretty great
6556s	i think it's pretty solid i love how
6558s	you've got so many foes being targeted
6560s	by this alt uh captures that unlimited
6564s	power very well
6566s	um and i love how you're doing so with
6569s	the tier three in the drake system
6572s	very very good stuff
6573s	very good stuff
6575s	super high quality
6576s	keep it up another panoramic shot
6579s	from dark chaos once again
6582s	i think that little yellow scout must be
6584s	his favorite because i see that little
6585s	guy in or not scout
6587s	stinger
6588s	excuse me that little yellow stinger in
6591s	all the shots that might be his favorite
6594s	um but yeah i love this one for zarkov
6597s	where you're seeing a blend of all of
6599s	these uh different aspects of this site
6601s	including but not limited to uh like the
6604s	planets in the distance right but this
6606s	massive base
6608s	and all the details thereof and you got
6610s	this drone character carrier that
6612s	admittedly does look a little bit weird
6614s	with all these lines jarred out uh but
6617s	regardless
6619s	uh great panoramic once again
6622s	love how it all comes together we've got
6625s	pierre kex
6627s	who also posted a couple of their photos
6629s	in the discord some stuff that they had
6631s	um i'm not sure it doesn't look like it
6633s	was it does look like it was from the
6635s	most recent update okay
6638s	thank goodness for that early access tag
6639s	am i right
6640s	but i love how they are showcasing that
6642s	they can complete challenges this is
6644s	something that i feel like a lot of
6645s	people don't necessarily do i'm not sure
6648s	why but some locations especially in the
6651s	kite nebula they actually change a
6653s	little bit when you finish up
6656s	the location challenge and this is one
6658s	of those sites that does so
6660s	so you can see the completionist at work
6662s	and i like how it brings together just
6664s	some very simple line usage with a color
6666s	palette that's rather soft you know we
6668s	got that blue mixed with just just
6671s	enough orange to complement it
6674s	so it stands out it's really good
6676s	really good oh my gosh
6678s	seeing like some comments over on
6680s	youtube you guys are crazy
6683s	i love each and every one of them
6685s	oh my gosh
6691s	yeah and um so you guys know i like i
6694s	always filter through all of the photos
6696s	for every single stream
6698s	um just i'm just adding to the
6700s	conversation from over on youtube um
6703s	sorry twitch hang on a second um
6705s	but yeah
6707s	if you can post more consolidated
6710s	quality shots for me
6712s	that would be amazing um i do love the
6715s	photo dumps don't get me wrong i really
6717s	do
6718s	but man you can ask geekbike because he
6720s	you know him hosting the stream a couple
6722s	weeks ago he knows now like the process
6724s	of setting up a stream and all of its
6727s	beauties and all of its terrors man
6729s	screenshot collection is a pain so
6733s	uh help me out by helping yourself out
6735s	and highlighting your best work that's
6737s	my recommendation all right next up
6740s	this one was weird by the way uh from
6742s	sirloin if you are in the chat when you
6745s	posted this um i have to like download a
6748s	link
6749s	in order to get it at all i think there
6752s	is a a way to like
6755s	process it
6756s	i think uh like down process it to where
6759s	it fits in discord so you don't have to
6761s	download it um
6763s	i'd have to like backtrack and figure
6764s	out the specific way if i find it i'll
6766s	send it to you if you're not in the chat
6768s	at all well who cares because he can't
6769s	hear me ha
6770s	uh but otherwise i do love the shot of
6772s	the gunship
6774s	um and it's got this like
6776s	something's going on surrounding it vibe
6779s	like some sort of mysterious
6782s	invisible shield thing you can like
6785s	especially here you can see there's
6786s	something
6787s	close by it
6792s	i can't put my finger on what's causing
6795s	that i don't know if it's like the boost
6796s	effect it might be
6798s	i'm not sure
6800s	but i like it
6801s	i like the way that it comes across
6805s	so
6806s	cool shot i dig it
6808s	and of course it also shows sirloin's
6810s	tastes of what his ship would look like
6812s	so it's always a pleasure
6814s	next up
6815s	this one's always a popular one to shoot
6818s	i don't know why it's almost like it's
6821s	referencing something um but uh yeah
6825s	just a nice clean simple shot this one
6827s	comes from
6829s	kirito jpk
6832s	i love it i dig it it's solid
6835s	i i love it when you guys like bring
6837s	these types of things to the table and
6838s	you're saying and you're like you're
6840s	showing us
6842s	your devotion
6843s	to the type of work that we do it's it's
6846s	really appreciated and it's also showing
6848s	your your you know
6849s	your wit if you will so keep that up too
6853s	[Music]
6855s	we have about seven minutes left i'm
6856s	going to cruise through five more shots
6858s	then we'll answer some questions and top
6860s	off the stream
6861s	i love this shot so much excel i love
6863s	this you you there was a comment
6866s	exchange regarding like the density of
6868s	the ice asteroid fields and i could not
6869s	agree more
6871s	this reminds me
6873s	of a
6875s	um
6877s	like effectively like a play test
6880s	of ever space one
6883s	before it even hit the prototype phase
6885s	like before it hit the alpha status
6888s	that's what this reminds me of there's
6889s	this incredibly dense asteroid field
6893s	for like just testing out
6895s	the hardware to create everspace one and
6899s	it's like we can actually accomplish
6901s	that in game now with everspace too like
6903s	massive jump forward from a
6905s	technological standpoint
6907s	i love this so much for that referential
6910s	quality whether you meant to do that or
6911s	not i don't know but that's
6914s	really what it does for me in particular
6916s	but the density here and like the way
6918s	that the light shines on the ice
6919s	asteroids i've already told you guys
6921s	like one of my favorite things um
6923s	i just i dig it so much like even if
6925s	it's like subtle like you get such rich
6927s	detail i have just an asteroid like
6931s	there's no reason that should look this
6933s	good there's zero reason and yet here we
6935s	are
6936s	ah i dig it so nice capture of that
6939s	location excel
6940s	very cool next one we got flory who's
6943s	also in a similar location but
6945s	highlighting dead style
6948s	i love this nice clean it's either like
6951s	a jet black or a dark
6953s	it's like a grayish blackish sort of
6955s	coloration but those red highlights make
6958s	it pop
6959s	oh my gosh i also do love that
6961s	particular wing on the interceptor i
6964s	think that looks just dandy with your
6966s	combination going on good good stuff and
6970s	bonus points for that just a little out
6972s	of bits of framing with like planets in
6973s	the background and mixtures of other
6975s	asteroids it's always a bonus
6978s	to really showcase
6980s	the amount of depth that takes place in
6982s	these environments uh we also have
6985s	another one from florey this one's a bit
6987s	more frosty and they even showed the
6990s	process if you look in the discord and
6992s	how they're like messing with the frost
6994s	mines and then like triggering them all
6997s	off at certain intervals
6999s	to get that frosted effect over the ship
7002s	as well as just really cool looking
7003s	explosions
7005s	um yeah neat very fun
7008s	very fun
7012s	uh
7014s	gonna go to another one from high
7015s	highbarf
7016s	super simple look
7018s	super simple i just i dig it
7022s	seeing perspectives from other factions
7025s	for some reason i get a big kick out of
7027s	because you don't recognize the ship at
7028s	first it feels like something unique and
7030s	new and exciting and which is what this
7032s	does for me this new ship that we have
7034s	the bottom of the screen that we're
7035s	looking out from it feels new different
7037s	and exciting it's just it's just a
7040s	commonplace coalition fighter
7043s	but man just being able to see this and
7045s	like the tubing on the outside and the
7047s	little details like for its missile
7049s	payload um
7050s	that's so fun like it's that that being
7053s	able to see that level of detail when
7055s	you zoom in on shots like this that's
7057s	what it's all about
7059s	i love it
7060s	i love it there's so much quality and
7062s	precision added into every single one of
7064s	these units and when you guys capture
7066s	that
7066s	and then of course you also have you
7068s	know massive station that's being
7069s	showcased but like being able to see
7071s	those little details i think it's it's
7073s	one of the wonders that i get to
7075s	experience through your screenshot
7076s	sharing so thank you for that
7079s	very very good stuff
7080s	last but not least we've got flory who
7082s	captured the frost effect itself
7087s	very neat
7090s	some i know someone's gonna complain
7092s	about this be like it shouldn't be on
7093s	the dashboard it should only be on the
7095s	glass itself
7097s	ah
7098s	we like how it's completely frozen
7100s	everything the internal temperature
7102s	of this ship is actually negative 700
7106s	000 degrees
7108s	uh go ahead and convert that into your
7110s	local amount i'm sure it'll be fine uh
7112s	but yeah i know i think it looks great i
7113s	think it looks fantastic
7115s	um i love the way that it's captured
7117s	this effect also applies if you're in
7119s	third person mode
7120s	so you are aware
7123s	um man i cannot wait for us to do more
7125s	to these cockpits huh
7127s	i just want to
7128s	just want to throw that out there that
7130s	would be pretty great all right cool all
7132s	right well that's all the screenshots
7133s	for today uh let's get into like a final
7136s	round of questions uh hang on a second
7158s	okay i'm back um
7160s	sweet i just needed to pull up the uh
7162s	the question list so that i could
7163s	actually answer them
7165s	we'll keep this in the background for
7166s	the moment because i just i really dig
7167s	that one so uh we got questions
7173s	uh so wouldn't it be nice to be able to
7176s	is this a question or is this a
7178s	suggestion wouldn't it be nice to be
7179s	able to see if the stats that equipment
7181s	would give if upgraded but without
7183s	having to go to the crafting scene yeah
7184s	this looks like a suggestion um because
7187s	yeah it would be nice
7189s	um and i would definitely recommend
7190s	posting it onto the forums
7192s	[Music]
7194s	uh based on how this is composed like i
7198s	get where you're coming from uh for sure
7201s	um but yeah i mean obviously like in my
7203s	conversation earlier about
7206s	um you know
7208s	various conversations about
7210s	certain aspects of the game getting
7212s	priority versus others that it gets
7214s	simplified stuff like that um yeah i
7217s	mean
7218s	i can't guarantee you that we would be
7219s	able to implement something like this
7221s	but yeah i mean we love those quality of
7223s	life features and encourage you guys to
7225s	recommend more and more and more to see
7228s	what we can do on that front so yeah no
7230s	worries whatsoever um now i'm kind of
7233s	now we've got like legitimately one
7235s	minute where i can just chat with you
7237s	all um i have to leave like prompt we're
7240s	gonna have a series of streams where i
7242s	have to leave promptly at three um my
7244s	three o'clock which is like 30 seconds
7246s	from now because of uh personal elements
7250s	but um
7252s	you guys have been awesome today i know
7254s	that we had a number of
7256s	uh bugs at first and uh we kind of
7259s	crashed a little bit more due to our
7261s	under level status i will correct that
7263s	for next week
7264s	but i'm so excited always seeing your
7267s	beautiful faces show up asking these
7270s	obscure questions being able to
7272s	highlight new stuff that's going to be
7274s	coming your way whether it's in a hot
7276s	fix or in a in a full release you know
7278s	like i'm i really hope that you guys
7280s	appreciate the perk screen wework um and
7284s	what that's going to do as well as the
7286s	addition of the cruise missile which uh
7288s	admittedly probably needs a little bit
7289s	more balancing to it
7291s	a little bit we're pretty happy with
7292s	where it's at and then the front shield
7294s	generator which i am excited to show you
7297s	some more on that one next week
7299s	uh but yeah
7301s	uh otherwise
7304s	you've been awesome
7306s	i've been eric schroeder your community
7308s	ambassador for rockfish games don't stop
7311s	being awesome we'll catch you next week
7313s	and rockfish recaps
7315s	will be coming out soon all right
7317s	toodles
7341s	[Music]
7349s	[Music]
7364s	this is your constant reminder that
7366s	everspace 2 is in an early access phase
7370s	and it will go up in price when it
7372s	reaches 1.0 in 2023 that is the
7375s	beginning of next year in fact so if you
7377s	would like to support us you can do so
7380s	in one of two three ways
7382s	that's right there are two specific ways
7385s	math is hard one way is that you can
7388s	wishlist us those wish lists help
7391s	promote sales in general by telling
7394s	people that something you're following
7396s	is worth it it also helps you out
7399s	because when it goes on sale
7401s	boom you know and you can buy it for a
7404s	nice little discount the second way is
7407s	you don't give a single f and you just
7410s	buy the game right now it doesn't matter
7412s	if it's on sale or not that support is
7415s	always huge and the last way of course
7417s	is to wait that for that full 1.0
7419s	release so you don't have to deal with
7421s	all the bugs and the nonsense of me
7423s	going but it's early access you can
7425s	avoid all those shenanigans completely
7427s	you want to see if we're going to reach
7429s	all of our promises that we've adhered
7431s	to by all means wait it out we encourage
7434s	you to do so if that's your thing
7437s	but do note 1.0 that price will in fact
7440s	go up the choice is yours and now you
7443s	are equipped to make a decision
7447s	all right folks i'm really peacing out
7449s	don't stop being awesome
7451s	and toodles again
7473s	and now it's time to give some love
7480s	to corbin streaming horizon zero down
7485s	[Music]
7495s	you
