| 690s | we will mainly focus of the highlights |
| 692s | of things and the biggest changes and |
| 694s | you will be able to find uh the details |
| 696s | in the patch notes and the test servers |

| 700s | social media so please let us know after |
| 702s | the stream have you like this uh new |
| 704s | format and what you think of this one |
| 707s | but I think without further Ado we can |
| 709s | also dive into it and start talking |
| 711s | about everything uh but before that |
| 714s | obviously serpent Moon ended today at 4 |
| 717s | pm CST and France uh could you tell us |
| 721s | like some stats from the event |
| 723s | yeah I mean uh I think everyone is |
| 725s | really aware of that that this has been |
| 727s | so far our longest live event and as |
| 731s | such and you can see by the numbers by |
| 733s | the snake dance looted and the set snake |
| 735s | sacrifice basically the total eight |
| 737s | point |
| 738s | totally even points I mean competition |
| 741s | was fierce and so we had over 5 billion |
| 745s | even points in total and thanks for |
| 747s | everyone for playing the game and really |
| 749s | appreciating the content |
| 753s | that's a lot of snakes and indeed a lot |
| 756s | of lot of points so thank you for the |
| 758s | whole Community for participating and uh |
| 760s | yeah we'll have more stuff coming up in |
| 762s | the future so I will let you know on a |
| 765s | later point but uh it's time to talk |
| 767s | about this update which is update 1.10 |
| 770s | and first with the level design changes |
| 773s | so Tom let's see the highlights of uh |
| 776s | the level design changes in this update |
| 778s | what's new |
| 780s | right so we're starting off with |
| 782s | Stillwater by you there's two changes |
| 784s | here that I wanted to highlight and show |
| 786s | here |
| 787s | um that the team's been working on the |
| 788s | first one is going to be Alice Farm |
| 791s | uh mainly this river that we all know |
| 794s | and love and there's a little island now |
| 797s | um that you can see in the screenshot |
| 798s | that is blocking the sideline there a |
| 800s | little bit and gives you another option |
| 804s | for maybe a quicker rotation to the |
| 806s | other side it's just something we |
| 808s | thought it would be nice with |
| 810s | more often than not having |
| 813s | issues maybe Crossing this River there |
| 815s | and it's just yeah another option yeah |
| 818s | it's been much easier to cross because |
| 820s | like it was always a problem or |
| 821s | sometimes a problem when the thing |
| 823s | sitting on the other side so I think |
| 824s | this is great |
| 825s | uh and we also have something from their |
| 828s | own livestock |
| 830s | there is one change that I'm really |
| 831s | excited about is mainly about this |
| 833s | little side building here this little |
| 835s | Barn you see so we've changed the we've |
| 838s | given a bit more meaning to this |
| 840s | building now uh with the roof |
| 842s | access uh uh into that building from the |
| 846s | roof so you don't have to go down to get |
| 848s | in you can also drop down from the roof |
| 850s | onto these hay bound that are now |
| 852s | connected with the main boss Pit so |
| 854s | let's say you're on the roof you make a |
| 855s | good kill you can actually act on it now |
| 857s | you can jump down jump over do a little |
| 860s | bit of a parkour you know and it's a |
| 863s | good way to really quickly get into the |
| 865s | bus pit now |
| 867s | yeah and we actually obviously have more |
| 869s | changes for Stillwater bio as well we |
| 871s | actually have a quiet extensive list for |
| 873s | all the maps so uh make sure you will |
| 876s | read the update notes when they are live |
| 877s | for this update but let's look at some |
| 879s | of the highlights from loss on Delta |
| 882s | uh starting with Iron Works |
| 884s | starting with the smaller one first but |
| 887s | I don't know how you guys feel about it |
| 889s | but it's been bugging us a bit that |
| 891s | these two roofs aren't connected so we |
| 894s | changed it they're connected now you can |
| 896s | basically now have a much easier time to |
| 899s | rotate from this side building if you're |
| 902s | using the roof onto the main building |
| 904s | and make use of all the cool also new |
| 907s | little holes you know that are now |
| 908s | partly open and just maybe give you more |
| 912s | options when playing around that |
| 914s | compound so it's it's a bit of a smaller |
| 916s | thing but the next one is therefore a |
| 919s | bit of a bigger |
| 920s | rework yeah which is Nico's prison uh so |
| 924s | let's look at prison |
| 926s | yeah |
| 928s | so first screenshot you'll see we've |
| 931s | added a bit more of the balconies |
| 934s | outside to connect the two wings so you |
| 936s | don't have only that way through this |
| 938s | middle Tower you have a bit more options |
| 941s | to rotate and circle around |
| 944s | yeah and we wanted to as a side note |
| 945s | mentioned that the barrels are just like |
| 947s | all the possible like the phone be like |
| 949s | all three at the same time as a side |
| 951s | note uh that you spawn and curse yes |
| 955s | uh this is the other bigger change at |
| 958s | prison |
| 959s | yeah this is a really nice change so |
| 961s | this this east side gate building has |
| 965s | been extended we moved the Hut a bit uh |
| 968s | basically just looking at this entire |
| 969s | approach to the prison and just cleaning |
| 972s | cleaning that backside area up a lot and |
| 976s | um I think that is that's going to play |
| 977s | really well |
| 979s | um |
| 979s | yeah you you'll see it on the test |
| 981s | server |
| 982s | and the next next change is going to |
| 985s | show a little peak of what we also did |
| 987s | inside the prison there's a lot of |
| 989s | improvements to readability if you pay |
| 991s | attention to the staircase and this |
| 993s | before and after we closed a lot of |
| 994s | these staircases you know denoise |
| 997s | everything a little bit make sure it's |
| 999s | more readable what is accessible and |
| 1001s | what isn't just so that you have cleaner |
| 1004s | corridors cleaner corners and just |
| 1007s | overall a bit more readability uh inside |
| 1010s | the prison as well |
| 1012s | is awesome and there's obviously more |
| 1014s | changes to the prison even that we |
| 1016s | haven't shown so please explore them on |
| 1017s | the test servers and there's a lot of |
| 1019s | new stuff to explore so I've seen them |
| 1021s | all so really cool stuff uh and let's |
| 1024s | talk about the new spawn points as well |
| 1026s | some |
| 1028s | we've added new spawn points and uh |
| 1030s | We're Not Gonna We're not gonna go |
| 1032s | through all of that here we want to keep |
| 1034s | it to the highlights but we've added new |
| 1036s | spawn points like we did with design |
| 1038s | already for the last patch we're gonna |
| 1039s | we did the same we gave the same |
| 1041s | treatment now to Lawson Delta and |
| 1044s | Stillwater Bayou to look at my cheat |
| 1046s | sheet actually |
| 1047s | and we get that same treatment and added |
| 1049s | new spawn points you'll find out you'll |
| 1051s | see that we don't want to spoil that |
| 1052s | here and also on loss on the cell we've |
| 1057s | had mainly readability improvements for |
| 1059s | a lot of the compounds it's going to be |
| 1060s | a very extensive list of things that we |
| 1063s | patched and reworked in the patch notes |
| 1066s | to come soon and um yeah but those were |
| 1070s | the highlights for sure yeah it's gonna |
| 1072s | be fun to just like spawn into a new |
| 1074s | spawn point anyway so it's uh we didn't |
| 1075s | want to spoil everything for that but |
| 1077s | there's a new spawn points in the other |
| 1079s | Maps as well now and uh thank you Tom |
| 1081s | for the quick overview |
| 1083s | uh again please refer back to the |
| 1086s | Patronus side I think there's actually |
| 1087s | like a very long list of all kinds of |
| 1089s | changes for level design so please check |
| 1092s | that out and also play the test server |
| 1094s | to find them and thank you again Tom |
| 1097s | and yeah we'll see you uh I mean do you |
| 1099s | stand here uh we still have the Q a |
| 1102s | later as well if people have questions |
| 1103s | about the level changes uh but veterans |
| 1106s | it's your time now then let's talk about |
| 1109s | the new features uh which is a big one |
| 1112s | let's start off with the brand new |
| 1114s | questline system |
| 1117s | okay so basically we are introducing a |
| 1119s | new system to the game similar to what |
| 1122s | two might refer to as summons and events |
| 1124s | they are called the quest lines so this |
| 1126s | is going to be a new kind of system to |
| 1129s | engage players interacting with the game |
| 1131s | gaining new content be receiving new |
| 1135s | Rewards so I would like to stress out |
| 1137s | that this is the very first iteration we |
| 1139s | are really open to your feedback and and |
| 1141s | you know comments so please stay here |
| 1144s | until the very end |
| 1145s | in the questline system |
| 1148s | you will have multiple stages and in the |
| 1150s | multiple stages basically you will have |
| 1152s | multiple summons sorry uh I messed up |
| 1155s | there multiple quests |
| 1157s | a little little mess up multiple quests |
| 1160s | that you can complete as to earn stars |
| 1163s | and if you complete enough quests and |
| 1166s | earn enough Stars you will complete |
| 1167s | basically a stage |
| 1169s | once you complete the stage you will |
| 1171s | earn the rewards so they are going to be |
| 1173s | super cool rewards legendary items |
| 1175s | Legendary Weapons legendary hunters even |
| 1177s | and other new customization options that |
| 1180s | we are going to talk about later on |
| 1181s | right we'll show some of that in a bit |
| 1183s | but uh yeah as uh as you said it's gonna |
| 1187s | be a new system where people can |
| 1188s | actually progress through selected |
| 1190s | quests and uh have like different stages |
| 1192s | of them and uh let's just look at an |
| 1194s | image example so you can maybe uh walk |
| 1196s | us through what we are seeing okay so I |
| 1199s | already made a little bit of a mess |
| 1202s | there with the summons so I would like |
| 1205s | to refer to them as they would go into |
| 1207s | the progress progress progression menu |
| 1209s | next to this summons so here you can see |
| 1212s | a very good example of the Billy and |
| 1215s | Distillery beetle questline |
| 1218s | um with all the really cool rewards uh |
| 1220s | in a very first Spotlight that so you |
| 1224s | can basically identify and differentiate |
| 1227s | between them in this overview |
| 1229s | we can go a little bit deeper benser so |
| 1232s | here is a very first overview on the |
| 1235s | deeper level you can see that you have |
| 1237s | the stages on the top row you can go |
| 1240s | from stage 1 to Stage X |
| 1242s | currently we have stage up to Stage six |
| 1246s | uh planned for the upcoming quest lines |
| 1249s | in 1.10 and you can see here in stage |
| 1252s | one |
| 1253s | you have these four quests one of them |
| 1256s | are completed to the left and there's |
| 1258s | three of them uh that's that is still |
| 1260s | there to complete you can see that |
| 1263s | basically uh if you're curious about it |
| 1267s | um we made the deliberate decision that |
| 1269s | we don't force we don't want to force |
| 1271s | players to be either PVE or PVP specific |
| 1277s | to have to do all the quests in a stage |
| 1279s | we want them to we want to basically |
| 1282s | give them the option looking at the star |
| 1284s | rewards to decide for themselves you |
| 1288s | know you can complete either two of the |
| 1290s | two star quests in this act or stage two |
| 1293s | to progress forward to the next stage |
| 1295s | where you can complete the two one stars |
| 1298s | and then select or choose make your pick |
| 1300s | between the two others so it's really |
| 1302s | straightforward and once you complete |
| 1304s | again a stage you claim the rewards the |
| 1308s | main rewards for that stage and you |
| 1310s | advance to the next one until you |
| 1311s | complete the whole questline yeah we can |
| 1313s | also see that that you actually get |
| 1315s | smaller rewards as well for each |
| 1316s | completion yes like foreign |
| 1319s | yes for for now we we uh really made the |
| 1323s | concise decision to not remove them |
| 1325s | similar to how you can gain these minor |
| 1327s | rewards and summons we also want to |
| 1330s | incentivize players to even if you did |
| 1333s | not complete all the quests in a stage |
| 1334s | but you advance to the next one you can |
| 1337s | still come back to previous stages and |
| 1340s | complete the quest for other either |
| 1342s | minor Rewards or for bragging rights |
| 1345s | sounds awesome I think we'll have some |
| 1348s | more images in a bit later yeah but uh |
| 1351s | let's tie this together with the feature |
| 1353s | of stuff he mentioned already |
| 1355s | so uh when is it coming |
| 1358s | so uh we are going to have a new twitch |
| 1360s | drop uh starting with the 12th of |
| 1362s | October and going until the 20th and |
| 1365s | this is uh going to be a really |
| 1368s | interesting twitch drop |
| 1370s | uh in the regards that |
| 1373s | you will not only gain very cool uh |
| 1376s | legendary Hunter and items from watching |
| 1380s | uh streamers or uh Han Showdown to which |
| 1383s | category uh streams but you will also |
| 1386s | gain basically one of the questlines out |
| 1389s | of the two that we planned to release |
| 1391s | with 1.10 |
| 1392s | so basically I would like to stress out |
| 1394s | that the this quest line that will come |
| 1398s | with the twitch drops is Twitch drops |
| 1401s | exclusive you have to watch uh I think |
| 1404s | 60 Minutes only and you you can do it |
| 1407s | during the whole remainder of the twitch |
| 1408s | drops campaign right so you don't have |
| 1411s | to you don't have to be pressed claiming |
| 1413s | it on day one although I'm fairly |
| 1416s | confident that players are going to do |
| 1418s | that you know I claim it whenever you |
| 1421s | want and then you can basically Advance |
| 1423s | with the questline on your own pace and |
| 1425s | you will be owning it for good all right |
| 1428s | we forgot to mention that you will be |
| 1429s | able to link your accounts at the hunt |
| 1431s | Showdown website free drops this is not |
| 1434s | currently working yet but please follow |
| 1436s | us uh social media and obviously with a |
| 1438s | nice event you can do the new linking |
| 1440s | process but the link will stay the same |
| 1442s | so you can already save it and bookmark |
| 1444s | it uh and yes friends mentioned uh you |
| 1447s | will get a legendary rewards like in |
| 1451s | previous special pattern next inclusive |
| 1453s | questline as well where you can even |
| 1455s | earn more rewards and let's look at |
| 1458s | those here |
| 1460s | all right so you you you yeah |
| 1464s | someone's coming back to the game |
| 1467s | um I I think I think it has been an |
| 1470s | ongoing feedback from the community side |
| 1472s | that they are missing a bit history so |
| 1475s | we have decided to basically |
| 1478s | um |
| 1479s | uh give give another opportunity for |
| 1483s | players to claim this legendary Hunter |
| 1485s | and as you can see and we have already |
| 1487s | spoiled it on the add previous |
| 1488s | screenshots right so this ability story |
| 1491s | is going to be a main reward for this |
| 1493s | twitch drops campaign exclusive |
| 1495s | questline |
| 1497s | so once you once you watch the TDC and |
| 1500s | you claim the questline you can have the |
| 1503s | questline for good you can help me the |
| 1506s | story at your own pace basically |
| 1508s | and yeah we can also see that there's |
| 1510s | another stage as well with another |
| 1511s | reward but uh yes I don't know what's |
| 1514s | that yet yeah |
| 1516s | yeah well what could what could be |
| 1517s | better in this case than really sorry I |
| 1520s | would ask you know I don't think there's |
| 1522s | anything that is the best uh but yeah we |
| 1526s | also have like another image on all the |
| 1528s | rewards uh as you already mentioned the |
| 1531s | if players watch uh since the first day |
| 1534s | for 60 minutes you will be able to |
| 1536s | unlock this exclusive questline fit in |
| 1538s | the game which will lead you to |
| 1540s | unlocking Billy story and actually other |
| 1542s | cool rewards as well and we do have |
| 1545s | regular drops on the other days where |
| 1548s | you can unlock these three rewards that |
| 1550s | you see in the image including a new |
| 1552s | legendary Hunter as well uh and that |
| 1554s | feature drops are actually available to |
| 1556s | every streamer but the hand crossbow |
| 1559s | will be a partner exclusive everything |
| 1561s | else will be for everyone |
| 1564s | yeah I would also like to stress out |
| 1566s | that uh I think correct me if I'm wrong |
| 1568s | Ben said but this is our very first |
| 1570s | legendary Poison bomb uh uh variant now |
| 1574s | I think so indeed yes yeah it's really |
| 1577s | cool too yeah yeah so so it's always |
| 1580s | good when consumables get a little bit |
| 1582s | of loving right yeah definitely and the |
| 1584s | hunter is super cool too so you can |
| 1586s | actually get to |
| 1587s | twos from the twitch drops which is |
| 1590s | amazing |
| 1592s | and we know that a lot of new uh older |
| 1595s | players actually that already had Billy |
| 1596s | they were like oh we're not getting any |
| 1597s | hunter this time but you actually do so |
| 1599s | uh just tune in again from uh between |
| 1602s | the 12th and 20th of October |
| 1605s | and then we have one more topic that's a |
| 1608s | new feature coming with this update what |
| 1610s | is that parent yeah I think I I think I |
| 1613s | think we did we did a little bit of |
| 1615s | spoiling like uh what what could be on |
| 1617s | that six stage or sixth Act of that |
| 1619s | questline and so we are introducing a |
| 1623s | new customization option for weapons in |
| 1625s | our game this is going to be purely |
| 1627s | cosmetic so there's not going to be any |
| 1629s | uh gameplay related impact or influence |

| 1742s | guys may have seen here and there if you |
| 1745s | kept an eye out we will also be talking |
| 1747s | about some gameplay changes some Hunter |
| 1749s | related changes and some progression |
| 1751s | changes are coming in this update too |
| 1754s | but without further Ado Chris and Tennis |
| 1757s | uh yeah let's uh let's just do this uh |
| 1760s | let's go into the stalker beetle |
| 1763s | all right select the stock a bit is um |
| 1765s | something new that we've been cooking up |
| 1767s | and we're kind of hinting at uh in some |
| 1770s | of the past streams some of the past |
| 1771s | messages we've been giving out over the |
| 1772s | last half year |
| 1774s | um it's like a new Tactical option for |
| 1776s | the player like something for for like |
| 1778s | um scouting harassing creating |
| 1780s | diversions and breaking stalemates and |
| 1784s | uh it fits kind of right in with all the |
| 1785s | other stuff that we already have given |
| 1786s | to this the player's toolbox kind of in |
| 1788s | a way like the options that they have so |
| 1791s | um yeah as I said without further Ado |
| 1792s | maybe let's let's give Chris a chance to |
| 1794s | kind of like show what the soccer field |
| 1796s | is all about and what him and the like |
| 1798s | the team have been cooking up there |
| 1799s | because it's amazing |
| 1801s | absolutely super happy to finally reveal |
| 1805s | this because um it's a completely new |
| 1807s | thing for hunt and |
| 1810s | um it will touch a lot of areas that |
| 1812s | suddenly people have will have new |
| 1814s | things to learn in uh and and remember |
| 1819s | and you remember to take care of new |
| 1821s | things new angles to watch out for and |
| 1824s | so on this is why we are super excited |
| 1826s | about this one so just briefly yes it is |
| 1830s | a player controlled playing entity thing |
| 1833s | it's an insect in the lore of hunt |
| 1836s | um that you connect and connect |
| 1840s | um to Via your dark Powers right your |
| 1844s | dark side |
| 1846s | um it is consumable as you can read on |
| 1850s | on the screen here so you can buy it in |
| 1852s | the store but you can also find it in |
| 1854s | the world |
| 1855s | the Cocoon that is mentioned here is a |
| 1859s | new possibility for you to retrieve it |
| 1862s | in the world we won't go into too much |
| 1864s | detail uh we want you to explore it and |
| 1868s | and find them and experience it |
| 1871s | firsthand but uh it it's hard to miss so |
| 1875s | have fun with that one and I think we |
| 1877s | will jump right into the technical video |
| 1879s | right because we could we could talk |
| 1881s | about this for hours |
| 1883s | which we won't do we'll just show a |
| 1886s | couple of videos and then uh let you |
| 1889s | explore it when the test server hits |
| 1891s | soon definitely so we are back to our |
| 1893s | favorite dev Tower and let's take a look |
| 1896s | at |
| 1897s | one day we will destroy it |
| 1901s | but this one is kind of new because you |
| 1903s | can see the other side |
| 1906s | because after you activate it the |
| 1909s | controllable thing right you can turn |
| 1911s | around and you can see yourself who's |
| 1913s | gonna who's been harassing the tower |
| 1917s | and this is an important part we can |
| 1920s | mention because |
| 1921s | um I mean we're showing it you can reuse |
| 1924s | it if you're careful with it and you |
| 1926s | don't lose it and there's various ways |
| 1928s | of losing it |
| 1930s | you can pick it up again |
| 1934s | take another look |
| 1935s | [Applause] |
| 1937s | and you can see it's permanently in in |
| 1939s | dark side so it has abilities it has |
| 1945s | it has certain functions we want you to |
| 1949s | to utilize right but it also has a lot |
| 1952s | of constraints attached to it |
| 1955s | and we also have some pictures of it so |
| 1957s | you guys can see it up close |
| 1959s | I see that the chat is saying it's very |
| 1961s | cute so |
| 1962s | I mean like specifically when you have |
| 1965s | it in first person your hands right like |
| 1967s | it as a little Beetle looks into your |
| 1969s | vein |
| 1974s | we got feedback from both sides I also |
| 1977s | think it's cute but not necessarily |
| 1978s | everyone agrees I think it's cute uh |
| 1981s | well let's see what else it can do then |
| 1986s | yeah so we we teased this in the other |
| 1989s | video where it says you you can actually |
| 1991s | explode it this is not the main purpose |
| 1995s | um of the stalker Beetle it deals very |
| 1998s | minor damage and effects this is meant |
| 2001s | to |
| 2002s | uh enable you to have some sort of an |
| 2005s | effect on your environment this showed |
| 2006s | in in early play tests already where we |
| 2009s | just want to be able to maybe open a |
| 2012s | window shutter or maybe deal damage to a |
| 2016s | cranked handle right and close that door |
| 2018s | that that should be closed |
| 2021s | um |
| 2022s | because it enables me to uh to run my |
| 2026s | tactics however want right |
| 2029s | um and another important thing that we |
| 2031s | should mention because it will surprise |
| 2034s | a couple of people it triggers all the |
| 2037s | warnings like if it's close to a clue |
| 2040s | with another player the clue will also |
| 2042s | turn red it's considered in the |
| 2044s | extension of the hunter that is |
| 2046s | controlling it whatever that means |
| 2048s | systemically and that is for you to find |
| 2051s | out and this is just a little hint |
| 2053s | right and uh yeah let's look at our |
| 2056s | longer video after this to see how it |
| 2058s | actually looks in game and how it works |
| 2061s | and you can talk us through the |
| 2063s | yeah I will try to talk as little as |
| 2065s | possible because maybe in the first one |
| 2068s | and then on the second yeah |
| 2087s | foreign |
| 2112s | [Music] |
| 2120s | foreign |
| 2134s | together just to give a brief overview |
| 2137s | what does it mean for it to be a |
| 2140s | consumable |
| 2142s | um what is roughly the few distance and |
| 2145s | the range you can use it in right and |
| 2148s | um we won't as said we won't go into |
| 2151s | much more details what we will cover is |
| 2153s | for example you can already tell |
| 2155s | Vigilant is running on that thing right |
| 2158s | Hunter has Vigilant the Drone the soccer |
| 2162s | Beetle also has vigilant |
| 2164s | um it might be a good idea on when the |
| 2167s | test server drops to look at all the |
| 2169s | dark side related trades and read the |
| 2171s | descriptions not all of them will work |
| 2173s | but some of them |
| 2176s | right I know obvious the chat already |
| 2178s | spotted that uh you can ping videos as |
| 2181s | well |
| 2184s | this is something we thought was also |
| 2185s | the kind of important to try out because |
| 2187s | we want to run the teams |
| 2191s | and enjoy that it's something we also |
| 2193s | keep on monitoring here |
| 2196s | in terms of like all the mechanics it |
| 2198s | has all the things so this is a bit |
| 2200s | basically something that we're gonna |
| 2201s | investigate closely have you guys had a |
| 2203s | have a good playing with it a little bit |
| 2205s | and then we also might tame it a little |
| 2207s | bit more here and there depending on the |
| 2208s | feedback |
| 2209s | uh and we do have another video as well |
| 2212s | from the third person view just so |
| 2214s | people can see it from the outside as |
| 2216s | well and first we won't talk so you can |
| 2217s | listen to it |
| 2248s | yes I'm turning the volume down and uh |
| 2251s | feel free to talk Chris again |
| 2253s | yeah |
| 2254s | um we just wanted to show it how it |
| 2256s | looks from the outside perspective I |
| 2259s | mean |
| 2261s | um so you get a feel for what's the size |
| 2263s | what's the volume volume is roughly I |
| 2267s | mean we will tweak this according to |
| 2270s | player feedback obviously but we're |
| 2271s | pretty confident about what we will |
| 2274s | release uh in first place it's |
| 2278s | the the goal is that it's audible in to |
| 2281s | similar ranges |
| 2282s | um as hunters for example if Hunter if |
| 2285s | you can hear Hunter's printing you most |
| 2288s | likely also hear the stalker Beetle uh |
| 2290s | rushing towards you or away from you |
| 2293s | because as you could see in the in the |
| 2295s | video It's rather fragile so you |
| 2299s | wouldn't have much of a problem actually |
| 2302s | uh disabling it there's also various |
| 2306s | ways of disabling it or killing it and I |
| 2309s | make a distinction here but we won't go |
| 2311s | into detail because Hunt is a Sandbox |
| 2314s | game right and this consumable is a new |
| 2318s | well I want to say tool but it landed So |
| 2321s | consumable In Your Arsenal that you can |
| 2323s | use to |
| 2326s | enable yourself |
| 2328s | like whenever you face a challenge in |
| 2332s | Hunt |
| 2333s | you should have |
| 2335s | the potential and the means to overcome |
| 2338s | that challenge right |
| 2340s | um and this is just another step we're |
| 2342s | taking of making uh |
| 2345s | making players just more |
| 2348s | um |
| 2350s | give them more abilities more options |
| 2353s | more things they can they can actually |
| 2356s | work with in either direction |
| 2359s | right then that's pretty much it yeah |
| 2362s | yeah that's fine I think it's very good |
| 2364s | to mention to please uh play the test |
| 2366s | servers especially for this one because |
| 2368s | there's so many different use cases so |
| 2371s | many different tactics you can uh do |
| 2373s | with the stalker b-roll that the uh you |
| 2375s | should try it out first and give us your |
| 2377s | feedback based on that and it's also |
| 2379s | very fun to play around with it and |
| 2381s | obviously also follow us on socials to |
| 2383s | get all the details about it because |
| 2385s | there's actually a lot of details uh a |
| 2388s | lot of other information that you will |
| 2391s | have to find out about this cute little |
| 2393s | Beetle still so please keep an eye out |
| 2396s | for that |
| 2398s | I'm really happy I'll just how this |
| 2401s | whole feature has turned out um so we |
| 2402s | did a like a lot of play testing with |
| 2404s | the stalker Beetle also with like some |
| 2406s | of the some of the people from the |
| 2407s | community so thanks again to our our |
| 2409s | play test group |
| 2411s | um including some of the streamers some |
| 2412s | of the other people |
| 2414s | um I think that would be a very good |
| 2417s | thing to try and test serve all of you |
| 2418s | guys so join us whenever the test server |
| 2421s | goes online we have more information |
| 2422s | about it soon and it is really exciting |
| 2425s | and as part of a Sandbox right it has so |
| 2429s | many different options and variables so |
| 2430s | we can't wait really until you guys go |
| 2432s | and re-explore the details of it |
| 2435s | exactly but uh that's about the Beatles |
| 2438s | for now and let's talk about some of the |
| 2441s | other changes like the gameplay changes |
| 2442s | we've added tennis what are new in this |
| 2445s | update |
| 2446s | yeah so uh we're gonna talk about first |
| 2449s | off uh compact ammo for rifles um so |
| 2452s | this is something as part of our one |
| 2453s | boarding strategy a little bit like |
| 2455s | doing some some of the bouncing changes |
| 2457s | that we've been discussing for a while |
| 2458s | now and one of the things you want to do |
| 2460s | is want to ensure that um specifically |
| 2463s | the compact ammo rifle so this is |
| 2465s | specifically excluding the handguns |
| 2468s | um have a slightly higher effective |
| 2470s | range which means a higher headshot |
| 2472s | range so that you can kind of use some |
| 2475s | of them a bit more competitively and it |
| 2477s | also helps to kind of Bring Down The |
| 2479s | Long ammo meta which we still see as |
| 2480s | being a dominant strategy in loadouts |
| 2483s | which is okay people can play whatever |
| 2485s | they like but this gives like some of |
| 2487s | the players who don't play long I'm a |
| 2488s | bit more of a Competitive Edge so don't |
| 2490s | expect this to go up like to two three |
| 2492s | hundred meters right but it's going to |
| 2493s | be sitting roughly below that little bit |
| 2496s | um I think for the regular wind field |
| 2498s | we're talking about like roughly um 150 |
| 2500s | meters with the new changes so you get |
| 2502s | like 50 boost on top roughly a bit more |
| 2504s | and with FMJ it can connect go a little |
| 2506s | bit higher so maybe time to dust off |
| 2508s | that Winfield Marksman or the aperture |
| 2511s | and just try them out in a test server |
| 2513s | so I'll get a feeling for them there's |
| 2515s | no other changes to the compact ammo |
| 2517s | like so in terms of what they hit or the |
| 2519s | damage it's just specifically on the |
| 2520s | headshot side of things which we refer |
| 2522s | to as effective range in the stats |
| 2526s | if you do have some changes to the |
| 2528s | explosive customer mode for the uppercut |
| 2530s | as well yeah so this is also more of a |
| 2532s | minor change |
| 2533s | um I mean most people know that |
| 2535s | explosive upper cup uppercut emanation |
| 2537s | isn't really a fan favorite and that is |
| 2539s | perfectly fine we also had to do like a |
| 2541s | lot of changes to it a long time ago |
| 2543s | when it comes to making sure that |
| 2545s | explosive ammunition is not a problem |
| 2546s | for example on consoles where Precision |
| 2548s | aim is a bit harder and the splash |
| 2550s | damage actually gave you a bit of an |
| 2551s | advantage so no changes to Splash damage |
| 2553s | this is just that you finally have a |
| 2555s | chance as it is in line with for example |
| 2556s | the Martin Henry explosive or the |
| 2558s | Springfield explosive that are to a |
| 2560s | fraction of their normal effective range |
| 2562s | you can also do no headshots so in a |
| 2565s | compound if you have that loaded in |
| 2567s | maybe you can do that headshot now but I |
| 2569s | can tell if meters is not a lot so you |
| 2571s | really have to be close but at least you |
| 2573s | do not need to like hit them two or |
| 2574s | three times in the Torso in order to |
| 2575s | kill them there is a chance if you do |
| 2577s | that will that make this thing become |
| 2579s | meta no we don't think so it's just a |
| 2581s | small consistency change quality of life |
| 2582s | just to bring a little bit more to the |
| 2583s | foreground as an option |
| 2585s | yeah I yeah I barely ever faced |
| 2588s | explosive uppercuts so I think it's |
| 2589s | gonna be cool to see a bit more of those |
| 2592s | in the bio path we still have some other |
| 2594s | gameplay changes and yeah then um just a |
| 2597s | minor thing as well the the Pax claw um |
| 2599s | has received a similar treatment as |
| 2601s | we've been doing with the officer |
| 2602s | brawler like in one of the latest |
| 2604s | updates where we basically say now we |
| 2606s | treat this as being a knife attachment |
| 2608s | that does the same damage as a knife |
| 2610s | um it consumes a little bit more stamina |
| 2612s | still as a knife so there's a trade-off |
| 2614s | um but you can now more reliably use |
| 2617s | this as if you were to use a knife so if |
| 2619s | you want to leave your knife at home and |
| 2621s | you think it's fine with the uh for |
| 2622s | example semi-conception I just want to |
| 2624s | bring dassas alongside it's just an |
| 2626s | option for you buy anything again a bit |
| 2628s | of quality life for you guys |
| 2630s | uh awesome and with the gameplay changes |
| 2633s | uh at least the highlights of the |
| 2634s | gameplay changed out of the way let's |
| 2636s | talk about some of the hunter changes |
| 2638s | and the traits that changed in this |
| 2640s | update yes um so poison sense is a kind |
| 2644s | of an obvious candidate so we've kind of |
| 2646s | tried it out during the event that just |
| 2647s | ended right uh by doing for the duration |
| 2649s | of the event giving it an increased |
| 2651s | range and we kind of stick with that |
| 2653s | change so poison sense will have the 150 |
| 2656s | meter range as we tried out because we |
| 2658s | think there's a good change and uh again |
| 2661s | just a minor thing just make the whole |
| 2663s | thing feel nicer and actually uh |
| 2665s | something to try out when you're on a |
| 2666s | test server when you have a chance to |
| 2668s | play the stalker Beetle poison Sans is |
| 2670s | one of those uh trades that actually is |
| 2672s | also carrying over to the Drone like the |
| 2675s | view of the camera for for that one and |
| 2677s | if you are using the stalker Beetle |
| 2680s | um you normally let's put it the other |
| 2682s | way around normally you have the issue |
| 2684s | that you don't really want to go to dark |
| 2685s | side when you're in a combat right so |
| 2686s | that's what made poison sense less |
| 2688s | attractive Because unless the guy is |
| 2690s | really far away you don't really want to |
| 2691s | like maybe risk losing information |
| 2693s | with a stalker Beetle however you are |
| 2696s | constantly in dark side which means you |
| 2697s | kind of benefit a bit more passively |
| 2699s | from this and actually can use this so |
| 2700s | just another thing uh to look at where |
| 2703s | we can kind of kind of hint already at |
| 2705s | there some Synergy effects for you guys |
| 2707s | to try out it was also really fun during |
| 2709s | serpent moon to finally see more poison |
| 2710s | since uh players as well uh highlighting |
| 2714s | Aria us Community manager who loves that |
| 2716s | trade so it's a great change for him but |
| 2719s | we also changed cool in this update |
| 2722s | yeah so um |
| 2724s | um so far on on life basically means |
| 2728s | that you're kind of limited within range |
| 2730s | and you can only do this with grants |
| 2733s | um so without why I put the limit in it |
| 2735s | feels kind of limiting anyway school |
| 2737s | isn't really one of those traits that's |
| 2738s | used so much so just a bit of an upgrade |
| 2741s | on that one so if you have the trade and |
| 2743s | you do damage to a monster at any range |
| 2746s | and it can no longer be just grants can |
| 2747s | also be allowed can be something else it |
| 2749s | actually gives you a bit of Health back |
| 2750s | as well this is actually interesting for |
| 2752s | example if you go into Malay with |
| 2753s | hellhounds um and one of them bites you |
| 2755s | just like by killing one or two of them |
| 2757s | it might just top you up right above and |
| 2758s | you might not even lose that that Health |
| 2760s | chunk of Health it requires you to top |
| 2762s | up so it's just a small thing but it |
| 2765s | kind of adds a bit more value to cool |
| 2766s | that's actually amazing I already loved |
| 2768s | cool and it's even better now uh |
| 2771s | but we also did some small changes to |
| 2774s | conduit |
| 2776s | and yeah conduit is something that we |
| 2778s | kind of struggled a bit with in terms of |
| 2779s | okay how can we make this better |
| 2781s | how can we make this more interesting |
| 2782s | it's been actually one of the Lesser |
| 2783s | used ones as well |
| 2785s | um so we basically now give you five |
| 2788s | minutes of stamina shot whenever you're |
| 2791s | picking up a clue or a boss token so it |
| 2795s | means this becomes much more interesting |
| 2797s | for example for for places want to move |
| 2799s | fast because you can kind of like move |
| 2801s | from clue to clue top up those five |
| 2803s | minutes get more speed and actually like |
| 2805s | in the beginning of the map just run |
| 2806s | around a lot faster move a bit more |
| 2808s | around so that makes the whole thing a |
| 2810s | lot more interesting for those who like |
| 2811s | and prefer the fast gameplay but also |
| 2813s | it's interesting for example for for |
| 2815s | solo players like so when you manage to |
| 2817s | snatch up a boss token you actually know |
| 2818s | that you can kind of run away for five |
| 2820s | minutes |
| 2821s | um which it kind of stacks also for |
| 2823s | example with Magpie which might give you |
| 2824s | additional effects on top so this is |
| 2826s | something which we think is really |
| 2827s | interesting for fast gameplay and kind |
| 2830s | of gives this whole thing a bit more |
| 2831s | value |
| 2832s | some kind of way to see them actually in |
| 2834s | game and people trying them out to |
| 2836s | experience how it changes up the |
| 2838s | gameplay a bit uh but that's it for the |
| 2840s | trade changes uh and we have a lot of |
| 2844s | like progression related changes in this |
| 2846s | update like a huge huge huge huge list |
| 2849s | uh but we will just take an overview of |
| 2852s | them and since it's so much you will |
| 2854s | definitely have to read the passion is |
| 2856s | to find everything out but maybe Dennis |
| 2857s | can highlight a few here and there so uh |
| 2860s | let's talk about some price changes |
| 2863s | all right so yeah price change is |
| 2865s | basically across the board this is |
| 2866s | something we've also been kind of like |
| 2868s | discussing for time now and and |
| 2870s | discussed okay how do we want to reflect |
| 2872s | uh the the Trends on The Meta side like |
| 2874s | how are people using certain items |
| 2876s | either the frequency or just how |
| 2877s | effective they are in general how we |
| 2879s | feel the the relevant relevant value to |
| 2881s | them so this primarily is about weapons |
| 2883s | and custom ammo |
| 2884s | um and uh we've kind of upgraded or made |
| 2887s | some bit more a bit more expensive made |
| 2889s | some a bit more a bit more cheaper |
| 2891s | um the the gist of it is basically again |
| 2894s | that we wanted to have a number of |
| 2896s | weapons that are kind of bit a bit used |
| 2898s | to it too much go up in price as an |
| 2901s | example and again there's more on the |
| 2902s | list so please again later on refer to |
| 2904s | the full patch notes as we release more |
| 2907s | information about that because we get |
| 2908s | close to the test server but one of them |
| 2910s | is uh the label Marksman and the mozin |
| 2914s | sniper rifle so both of those just get a |
| 2916s | bit of a price bump just bring them |
| 2919s | closer think like if I'm recording |
| 2921s | correctly like the mozin sniper is not |
| 2922s | going to 703 30 so that's quite a big |
| 2925s | jump up something we feel is is |
| 2927s | appropriate of course we want it to be |
| 2930s | not like as common as it might be at the |
| 2933s | moment |
| 2934s | um or it doesn't mean like the entire |
| 2935s | like more than again or the entire label |
| 2937s | family goes up so specifically those two |
| 2939s | variants we're talking about that's just |
| 2941s | one example we also have things going in |
| 2943s | a different direction |
| 2945s | for example we have the |
| 2948s | um was it the uh Terminus actually going |
| 2952s | down in price quite a bit |
| 2954s | um again refer to the patch notes for |
| 2956s | all the details but I think it drops by |
| 2958s | at least 100 competitive orders at the |
| 2959s | moment and that makes the whole thing |
| 2961s | maybe a bit more attractive other |
| 2962s | weapons will go up a little bit |
| 2964s | um call the conversion the base version |
| 2967s | still is going to be a cheap weapon but |
| 2969s | it goes like from like 20 something to |
| 2971s | 50 something so it's just minor stuff |
| 2973s | here and there and also we're bringing |
| 2975s | down and bringing up some of the custom |
| 2977s | ammo prices as well depending again on |
| 2980s | usage Effectiveness so just expect like |
| 2982s | a bigger change a bigger sweep across |
| 2983s | the Arsenal some things become cheaper |
| 2985s | some things become more expensive and |
| 2987s | it's mostly around how people are using |
| 2989s | certain equipment and how we would like |
| 2991s | to maybe promote some of the |
| 2992s | Alternatives more |
| 2994s | uh sounds great and can't wait to try |
| 2996s | them as well and see how people maybe |
| 2999s | take different loadouts now but there's |
| 3002s | also some other price rated changes |
| 3005s | yes so this is this is also a bit of a |
| 3007s | quality of life changes something we |
| 3008s | couldn't really do before but with kind |
| 3010s | of as we did these these stick like |
| 3012s | price changes we kind of like worked a |
| 3014s | little bit on that part as well so if a |
| 3016s | weapon has two ammo slots |
| 3018s | um that means like the total pool of |
| 3019s | ammunition is divided between between |
| 3021s | these two slots but so far we have been |
| 3024s | kind of charging to play the full price |
| 3026s | so like if you were for example to take |
| 3027s | a birth year and wanted to use it only |
| 3030s | with Spitzer ammunition you had to buy |
| 3031s | two packs of pizza ammunition which |
| 3033s | would top up the weapon to almost the |
| 3034s | same for even more than the price of the |
| 3036s | base weapon would be which is kind of |
| 3037s | huge so at this in this case we take |
| 3039s | into account that you only get half the |
| 3041s | ammunition anyway so it's also only half |
| 3043s | the price so they make some of the |
| 3045s | weapons like the Romero for example or |
| 3046s | Martini Henry other weapons a bit more |
| 3047s | interesting when it comes to picking |
| 3049s | secondary ammo types and gonna split up |
| 3051s | between maybe regular ammunition and |
| 3053s | bringing one one set of smaller like |
| 3055s | like I know explosives in case of Martin |
| 3057s | Henry is a good one or with the Romero |
| 3059s | maybe slacks |
| 3060s | um but if you want to physically upgrade |
| 3062s | the whole thing you will still be in the |
| 3063s | same price ranges if you were to change |
| 3064s | a mini on any other weapon that has the |
| 3066s | same slot |
| 3068s | awesome and again please refer to the |
| 3071s | passengers to read the whole list |
| 3072s | because it's a long list of price |
| 3074s | changes but it's actually not just the |
| 3077s | price changes that change but trade |
| 3079s | changes in terms of upgrade points |
| 3083s | so for the trades again we also kind of |
| 3085s | looked a little bit about like which |
| 3086s | trades are being used a lot you saw that |
| 3088s | a little bit when I just talked about |
| 3089s | the gameplay changes we also applied to |
| 3091s | some of them but in general many of the |
| 3093s | trades went either up by one point or |
| 3096s | went down by one point so expect some of |
| 3098s | your favorites maybe to become a bit |
| 3100s | more expensive and some of those you |
| 3101s | think are kind of like overpriced to now |
| 3103s | finally maybe becoming a bit cheaper but |
| 3105s | overall we don't really move more than |
| 3107s | one point either up or down there's one |
| 3110s | exception that's bullet rubber that can |
| 3111s | call out maybe on that one that goes |
| 3113s | down by two points from six to four uh |
| 3116s | just to make it a bit more attractive |
| 3117s | especially since we added a couple |
| 3118s | patches back we added like the option to |
| 3120s | kind of interrupt your reload by keeping |
| 3122s | the fire button press pressing reload |
| 3123s | time it well and you can kind of like |
| 3125s | very smoothly reload without having to |
| 3127s | waste the bullet so with that feature in |
| 3130s | place like bulk rubber has seen a little |
| 3132s | bit of a decline as people have learned |
| 3134s | it just to use that technique without it |
| 3136s | so the change kind of reflects that |
| 3141s | cool uh bullet jumper is one of my |
| 3143s | favorite traits it's definitely the |
| 3144s | coolest trade so that sounds great uh |
| 3147s | and uh what other progression changes do |
| 3149s | we have done this which is also kind of |
| 3151s | a big one yeah so we we kind of moved |
| 3153s | around the unlock order of a couple of |
| 3155s | things and uh so this is mostly about |
| 3158s | like uh trades and and weapons and |
| 3160s | equipment obviously |
| 3162s | um the the idea here has been again with |
| 3164s | onboarding in mind so that's like how |
| 3166s | can we ensure that like new players have |
| 3168s | more valuable more meaningful options |
| 3171s | earlier on you don't have to wait for |
| 3173s | doctor for too long for example |
| 3175s | um and also that equipment wise we have |
| 3177s | a couple of weapons being available a |
| 3179s | little bit earlier compared to what they |
| 3181s | are at the moment so one example is that |
| 3182s | determiners and the martini Henry both |
| 3184s | are moving uh to a very early unlock |
| 3187s | rank |
| 3188s | um so definitely within training mode |
| 3191s | um just to make sure there's a there's |
| 3192s | both a second shotgun and also a long |
| 3195s | ammo option available much earlier |
| 3196s | consequently maybe some of the weapons |
| 3198s | that originally were around that area |
| 3199s | like the Weatherly might have pushed |
| 3201s | Vector slightly so really things have |
| 3203s | been reorganized a little bit |
| 3204s | quartermaster is a bit like earlier now |
| 3207s | doctor as I mentioned a bit earlier and |
| 3209s | a couple others as well so overall the |
| 3210s | whole thing feels a bit nicely a bit |
| 3213s | more nicer spaced out |
| 3214s | and I think especially also maybe |
| 3216s | prestiging players would kind of like |
| 3217s | that a little bit seeing some of these |
| 3219s | options a bit earlier mixing things up |
| 3222s | definitely and once again just to |
| 3224s | mention it please uh refer to the patch |
| 3226s | notes or you know when you're trying it |
| 3228s | out on the test servers later on to see |
| 3231s | these changes because there's quite a |
| 3232s | few of them for real so uh it was |
| 3235s | actually such a long list that it made |
| 3237s | absolutely no sense to put it in here no |
| 3239s | no yeah again like the patch notes will |
| 3242s | will give you full details also they |
| 3245s | will have death notes as usual in there |
| 3246s | for some of the bigger features so we |
| 3248s | talk about the stock a bit Etc so that |
| 3250s | you guys have a chance to understand the |
| 3252s | reasoning about some of the decisions |
| 3254s | Etc and yeah again feedback on test |
| 3256s | server then very much needed very much |
| 3258s | appreciated and also obviously we kind |
| 3260s | of like want to lure you a little bit on |
| 3262s | test server because we want that |
| 3263s | coverage there so that's why we don't |
| 3265s | give away too much because we want you |
| 3266s | guys to really find out by yourself |
| 3268s | untainted get it all there and give us |
| 3271s | and share with you share with us your |
| 3272s | first hand experiences |
| 3274s | yes definitely but we still have some |
| 3277s | other changes to mention as a highlight |
| 3279s | for this update uh so what is this |
| 3283s | so yeah um |
| 3285s | so far it Bounty Hunts uh we did not |
| 3289s | have any option to really give you any |
| 3292s | new consumables except for when they |
| 3294s | were randomly given to you as part of |
| 3296s | the loot interactions like your own |
| 3297s | hunter or with the with the item boxes |
| 3301s | um what we've been adding now is that |
| 3303s | there are specific locations in the map |
| 3304s | where there's a chance now for some of |
| 3306s | the things you normally can't get from a |
| 3308s | toolbox to also spawn in the world this |
| 3310s | is rare this is not guaranteed but we |
| 3313s | want to encourage you for example to try |
| 3314s | and check out the the big towers a |
| 3316s | little bit more of not small Towers even |
| 3318s | there's also a chance to find that a |
| 3320s | little bit somewhere else we are there |
| 3321s | like like we do with the weapons just |
| 3323s | occasionally but for the most part like |
| 3326s | check and keep an eye closer eye out for |
| 3328s | the towers and you might discover one or |
| 3331s | two things around there |
| 3333s | yes thank you for the little teaser for |
| 3335s | that too and uh yeah uh again the |
| 3338s | passions will actually be extremely long |
| 3340s | when they come out uh around the test |
| 3342s | server so uh in this case I would really |
| 3344s | highly recommend for you guys to read it |
| 3346s | because there's a lot of other details |
| 3349s | and other important information for you |
| 3351s | you to know and then please also jump on |
| 3353s | the test servers for us uh and test this |
| 3354s | update out uh and that is all the main |
| 3358s | changes at least the highlights of the |
| 3360s | changes uh for this update but obviously |
| 3362s | we have a bunch of new cool legendaries |
| 3365s | to talk about as well so let's quickly |
| 3367s | take a look at those as well uh also |
| 3370s | just the highlights for this one uh |
| 3372s | first of all we are adding a new uh |
| 3374s | packs uh uh law actually a Pax claw |
| 3377s | since obviously there were some changes |
| 3379s | in this update called Caldera and it |
| 3382s | looks yeah this looks really awesome |
| 3383s | maybe it's a small thing I can drop |
| 3385s | about the pricing that affects the packs |
| 3387s | as well they said that the base packs |
| 3388s | also has gone down slightly in pricing |
| 3391s | so it's just 80 compared to the 100 it |
| 3393s | was before obviously the call for packs |
| 3396s | systemically also just changes a little |
| 3398s | bit based on that it's a little bit more |
| 3399s | expensive than the base one but you see |
| 3401s | the packs receiving a bit of love there |
| 3403s | with the claw buff with the price change |
| 3406s | but also with some cool legendary skins |
| 3407s | now |
| 3408s | yeah and this one looks really awesome |
| 3410s | and we actually have a really cool video |
| 3412s | from our awesome creative Services team |
| 3414s | to look at it |
| 3421s | [Music] |
| 3430s | let's just look at it one more because |
| 3432s | it's really beautiful |
| 3438s | sorry for jump scaring everyone with a |
| 3440s | loud music randomly |
| 3445s | yeah so that is uh Caldera the new packs |
| 3448s | claw added in uh One tennis of |
| 3450s | bloodborne legendary love it |
| 3452s | same and uh we also have a new Specter |
| 3455s | the 11th Hour uh which also looks sweet |
| 3461s | uh and also some cool pictures of it |
| 3464s | again to find out the Lord this time |
| 3467s | also please go in the game and read it |
| 3469s | because uh some lore pieces are also |
| 3471s | super interesting and fun to read yeah |
| 3474s | yeah you can you can quote me on that |
| 3476s | one everything in life is better with |
| 3478s | leather straps |
| 3481s | wow |
| 3482s | okay |
| 3484s | but yeah it's beautiful and again let's |
| 3486s | uh take a look at a video by our awesome |
| 3489s | creative Services thing |
| 3505s | yeah super cool uh can't wait to try it |
| 3509s | out my stuff I've been playing with the |
| 3510s | Specter way more lately so perfect |
| 3513s | I love it yeah uh and we do have an |
| 3517s | alarm or skin for which if you don't |
| 3519s | know it's the new Romero variant which |
| 3521s | is actually now available through |
| 3523s | regular progression since today uh |
| 3526s | called uh swamp dredge |
| 3528s | and it is very Swampy |
| 3531s | really cool yeah I love that one as well |
| 3536s | love how it's all like tied up in ropes |
| 3539s | and uh yeah I'm not gonna say anything |
| 3541s | about Robson Nets now |
| 3546s | [Laughter] |
| 3550s | quickly |
| 3553s | yes |
| 3556s | [Music] |
| 3560s | foreign |
| 3562s | [Music] |
| 3572s | General is really cool and fun so uh I |
| 3575s | saw a lot of people enjoying it since it |
| 3577s | came out with certain moves so it's just |
| 3579s | a brand new scheme for it which is great |
| 3581s | uh but I think we actually have an |
| 3583s | Romero skin as well but for the Talon |
| 3586s | variant and I have no idea how to say |
| 3589s | the name it's the hukua |
| 3592s | if uh I'm sorry if it's not how it's |
| 3595s | pronounced but uh thematically it's uh I |
| 3598s | really love it because it's about C and |
| 3600s | uh you know River pirated theme which is |
| 3603s | uh very close to my heart so I I would |
| 3606s | definitely remain in this uh going |
| 3608s | forward and with the latest like changes |
| 3611s | we did to the tablet and one nine right |
| 3613s | so that becomes a lot more viable as an |
| 3615s | option because you kind of bring a |
| 3616s | combat ax with just like 12 and three |
| 3619s | strikes just for free I'll always have |
| 3620s | in the back of your head |
| 3622s | two and but the legendary itself is |
| 3624s | absolutely beautiful too right with like |
| 3626s | the golden and I love it I love it uh |
| 3630s | and then yeah let's take a look at it as |
| 3631s | well |
| 3634s | [Music] |
| 3647s | yeah really beautiful uh the first left |
| 3650s | favorite of mine uh and we actually have |
| 3653s | a legendary Hunter coming out with the |
| 3656s | update as well called attack hunt and I |
| 3659s | can already tell you that this will be |
| 3660s | my go-to hunter from now on uh the only |
| 3663s | one I will be playing |
| 3665s | because |
| 3666s | yeah I mean people said it actually |
| 3670s | looks more like me than you though bands |
| 3672s | but yeah you can have it it's fine look |
| 3674s | it looks like you uh maybe that's why |
| 3676s | we're only playing with this you know |
| 3677s | like |
| 3678s | like you bring good luck but no it's so |
| 3681s | cool I really love it as well I mean and |
| 3684s | like by coincidence goes very nicely |
| 3686s | with some of the legendary uh skins |
| 3688s | right uh yeah definitely with that |
| 3690s | Romero and this Center and a Sparks |
| 3692s | pistol and you know uh that's that's |
| 3695s | perfect for role-playing I I love it uh |
| 3698s | and uh it's worth mentioning that uh the |
| 3701s | black market will actually get refreshed |
| 3703s | with this update so check that out when |
| 3704s | the update rolls out and uh we will |
| 3707s | actually we'll be having uh more |
| 3709s | bloodborne legendaries coming on later |
| 3710s | on during the same update as well so |
| 3713s | please check back to the store sometimes |
| 3715s | uh but with that uh we actually went |
| 3718s | through all our highlights again please |
| 3720s | let us know how you like the shorter |
| 3722s | format when we just talk about the |
| 3723s | highlights and not go super into the |
| 3725s | about everything because uh it's quite |
| 3728s | new so let us know how you like it but |
| 3729s | we're still gonna keep the regular q a |
| 3731s | section now at the end so I'm summoning |
| 3734s | everyone back Tom and parents especially |
| 3736s | uh |
| 3737s | hey everyone uh this is our first five |
| 3740s | man uh camera shot so |
| 3744s | yeah so you can just move over a little |
| 3747s | bit there |
| 3747s | [Laughter] |
| 3750s | exactly uh yeah so please ask your |
| 3753s | questions now in the chat and we are |
| 3755s | going to be also checking Discord |
| 3757s | because our lovely moderators are |
| 3759s | already collected some to us |
| 3763s | uh |
| 3767s | so we've seen a lot of questions asking |
| 3769s | about where the patch notes are |
| 3770s | obviously the passengers will be |
| 3772s | available with the test server release |
| 3773s | and it will be posted on all our socials |
| 3776s | as well so please just keep an eye out |
| 3778s | for updates regarding that uh it will be |
| 3780s | coming pretty soon uh but uh yeah just |
| 3783s | check back on the socials and the patch |
| 3785s | notes we're building there but obviously |
| 3787s | you can find them on the steam stuff |
| 3788s | servers as well as always |
| 3796s | if you guys see like a a question you |
| 3800s | want to ask feel free to jump in right |
| 3802s | away |
| 3803s | or else right I mean sorry |
| 3808s | uh |
| 3813s | there was a question about the serpent |
| 3815s | Moon night time is it gonna stay or is |
| 3818s | it gone now with the update we have not |
| 3820s | yet decided so by default we just go |
| 3823s | back to the normal time now as the event |
| 3825s | is over but we're discussing uh how to |
| 3828s | use this in the future maybe bring it |
| 3829s | back in one way or another maybe part of |
| 3832s | the fixed rotation maybe part for |
| 3833s | another event in the future we don't |
| 3835s | know yet so bear with us but it is |
| 3837s | something we talk about |
| 3839s | uh so apparently there was quite a lot |
| 3842s | of questions regarding the range of the |
| 3844s | beetle uh because it seemed like it has |
| 3847s | unlimited range in the video could you |
| 3849s | maybe Chris tell us about that a bit |
| 3851s | absolutely I've seen that as well um no |
| 3853s | it does not have unlimited range it is |
| 3855s | limited but you have to kind of try it |
| 3858s | out what range it has uh but it's it's |
| 3861s | not crazy it's you can't fly uh halfway |
| 3865s | across the |
| 3866s | the map definitely not and I've also |
| 3868s | seen another one that asks um why is it |
| 3870s | a consumable and not a tool it actually |
| 3873s | started outside out as a tool in the |
| 3875s | first prototype but then very quickly a |
| 3877s | plate has just showed that we can create |
| 3879s | a much richer experience with it being a |
| 3882s | consumable and it will make sense when |
| 3884s | you play it |
| 3886s | um without wanting to give too much away |
| 3889s | yeah that makes sense |
| 3891s | uh so a lot of people ask that maybe |
| 3894s | parents you can talk about this a tiny |
| 3896s | bit but not spoiling anything uh so |
| 3898s | obviously this event ended on our first |
| 3900s | battle pass and uh what's next maybe we |
| 3902s | can talk about the quest lines again a |
| 3903s | bit and yeah |
| 3906s | okay and uh actually I'm reading the |
| 3908s | chat and someone asked basically uh is |
| 3911s | the Halloween event anything you guys |
| 3913s | can share and um |
| 3917s | I'm only going to say that we are |
| 3918s | introducing questlines so there's |
| 3920s | definitely going to be something for |
| 3922s | Halloween |
| 3923s | we will keep you updated but there's |
| 3925s | gonna be |
| 3926s | um I don't know if I'm gonna support |
| 3927s | this but you can also look forward for a |
| 3930s | bigger event uh during winter period |
| 3933s | yeah like obviously events are always |
| 3936s | coming and uh you know like when we're |
| 3938s | getting closer to it we will share a lot |
| 3939s | more information about it and it is |
| 3941s | gonna be awesome so |
| 3943s | uh |
| 3945s | um there's been a couple of weapon |
| 3947s | related questions I can maybe just |
| 3948s | quickly pick one or two of them |
| 3950s | um what about what about the medium ammo |
| 3953s | uh it has no place no no that's not |
| 3956s | correct because medium armor still has a |
| 3958s | better damage retention over distance it |
| 3959s | also there's better penetration so mihim |
| 3961s | ammo still has a chance uh well actually |
| 3963s | even acknowledge the point that with |
| 3965s | some of the custom ammo changes in the |
| 3968s | past uh like the the medium ammo for |
| 3971s | example for for |
| 3973s | um I call it uh uh FMJ for example |
| 3977s | um offeredom was kind of like not worth |
| 3979s | it anymore compared to like the the |
| 3981s | cheaper upgrade that for example they |
| 3983s | call the conversion would receive so |
| 3985s | we've kind of took that into account as |
| 3987s | we did some of the pricing changes for |
| 3989s | custom ammo so rest assured medium ammo |
| 3992s | is still very very lethal and very |
| 3994s | important thing to stay in the game it's |
| 3996s | not obsolete |
| 3998s | and another point was regarding the |
| 4001s | analog order will the choke bomb be |
| 4004s | moved to rank one yes that is correct |
| 4006s | oh cool |
| 4008s | awesome uh actually I've seen some |
| 4011s | questions about back fixes and if we are |
| 4013s | fixing bugs and of course as with every |
| 4015s | update we are fixing a large list of |
| 4017s | bugs but again uh that could be |
| 4019s | something that you can either find out |
| 4021s | in game that you are not facing a bug |
| 4023s | that you did before or in the patch |
| 4024s | notes but there will be an extensive |
| 4026s | list of bug fixes as well |
| 4028s | uh and Tom you haven't talked yet so uh |
| 4032s | someone asked about the the problem of |
| 4034s | teams responding close to each other uh |
| 4037s | and since we're adding new spawn points |
| 4038s | maybe it's a good time to talk about |
| 4039s | that a bit again |
| 4041s | yeah we've addressed that in the last |
| 4044s | update actually in 1.9 where there's now |
| 4047s | a minimum required distance between two |
| 4049s | spawn points for them to both be able to |
| 4052s | have a team at the start of the match |
| 4054s | and |
| 4055s | since then uh this change mainly |
| 4058s | affected diesel back in the day and |
| 4060s | since then you shouldn't have had any |
| 4064s | very problematic spawn fights anymore if |
| 4068s | you did you can report them |
| 4070s | but on other on on other Maps we still |
| 4073s | there's still a slight chance for you to |
| 4074s | have that spawn fight like an Ironworks |
| 4077s | Ultras Park in the corner but the the |
| 4080s | chances have been reduced |
| 4082s | we do some we do think that spawn fights |
| 4086s | sometimes can be quite fun |
| 4088s | um we're not completely opposed to them |
| 4090s | but it's a matter of balance you don't |
| 4091s | want to have them every Metro obviously |
| 4092s | and you don't want to have them too |
| 4094s | close so that's what we what we did |
| 4098s | uh uh I see a bunch of questions from |
| 4101s | console players mean by asking about the |
| 4103s | current gen update or Next Gen update |
| 4105s | however you know call it for obviously |
| 4107s | the PS5 and series Xs and we've |
| 4110s | mentioned this before this is something |
| 4111s | we are actively looking into but uh it |
| 4114s | will be a bit later down the line but uh |
| 4117s | we are working on it uh as soon as we |
| 4118s | have more information to share about it |
| 4120s | we will definitely do so so don't worry |
| 4122s | it's in the works |
| 4127s | uh |
| 4129s | yeah |
| 4131s | there's one about conduit |
| 4134s | um whether it adds a stem effect or |
| 4137s | whether it prolongs the stem effects |
| 4139s | maybe that the player has from a syringe |
| 4141s | it basically just adds on top of |
| 4143s | whatever you have already so it Stacks |
| 4146s | um so if first for example if you didn't |
| 4148s | bring any like stamina shot or anything |
| 4149s | that you just fast to move from between |
| 4151s | a clue to glue or picking up the Bounty |
| 4154s | shortly after you've clicked the first |
| 4156s | clue maybe from an adjacent boss you |
| 4158s | might still have some of the previous |
| 4159s | one left and just adds up a little bit |
| 4161s | more on top |
| 4167s | um |
| 4167s | yeah general questions we obviously |
| 4170s | always get about new map and new bosses |
| 4172s | we already mentioned that both of these |
| 4174s | things are in the works but they take a |
| 4176s | longer process but you know again when |
| 4178s | we are closer to them obviously we will |
| 4180s | talk a lot about them and showcase them |
| 4182s | but yeah if you're working on both of |
| 4184s | those things |
| 4186s | someone asked about the lamat like being |
| 4189s | a special case whether it gets the half |
| 4191s | price ammo even though it gets full ammo |
| 4193s | for each type in this case |
| 4196s | um it's a bit of a bit of a in-between |
| 4198s | answer I can give so like the normal |
| 4200s | rounds they they have the full price |
| 4202s | because you get like a lot of them just |
| 4203s | as you do for other revolvers however |
| 4206s | the special ammunition of it since you |
| 4207s | only get a very few amounts like I think |
| 4209s | we're gonna treat this more like Amazon |
| 4211s | it's exactly the half price or if it's |
| 4213s | something in between but it definitely |
| 4214s | is interchanged |
| 4217s | uh is there any questions from any of |
| 4219s | you guys that you still want to answer |
| 4222s | right now yeah yeah I've I've got a |
| 4224s | couple of four uh quest lines for |
| 4226s | example so that there's a question here |
| 4229s | um asking does the new questline system |
| 4231s | take the place of the trials one |
| 4233s | so that's that's an obviously no I can |
| 4237s | tell you that quest lines is going to be |
| 4239s | complementary to basically trials and |
| 4241s | summons and events so so it's not gonna |
| 4244s | take over anything else we are not gonna |
| 4246s | uh deprecate anything we we want to look |
| 4250s | at our systems we want to tweak them we |
| 4252s | want to rework them |
| 4254s | we want to keep on keep them evolving |
| 4256s | over the course of the months and the |
| 4257s | next years |
| 4258s | so we want to basically |
| 4261s | um I would say cover all kinds of areas |
| 4264s | whether it's a personal PVE braking |
| 4268s | right uh challenge oriented thing with |
| 4270s | the trials whether it's a weekly |
| 4273s | recurring thing with the summons whether |
| 4276s | it's a more |
| 4277s | medium medium term |
| 4281s | engagements and activity with the quest |
| 4284s | lines and whether it's a more longer |
| 4286s | term with the events |
| 4289s | and |
| 4292s | I think I also had one here basically |
| 4294s | asking will the questlines have |
| 4297s | um |
| 4298s | uh quests or conditions related to |
| 4301s | Legendary Weapons |
| 4302s | yes but we thought about how to do this |
| 4307s | with a more cons in a more concise way |
| 4310s | basically for now at least with the two |
| 4313s | upcoming quest lines where you have a |
| 4315s | quest that prompts you to deal damage or |
| 4317s | kill a player with a specific legendary |
| 4319s | weapon you will basically be able to |
| 4323s | earn that from a previous stage |
| 4325s | so if you complete a stage that keeps |
| 4328s | you I don't know like a legendary combat |
| 4330s | ax and the next in the next ACT |
| 4333s | you will have a quest that will |
| 4335s | basically prompt you to now use that put |
| 4338s | that X to use you know |
| 4341s | um |
| 4342s | then then we will elaborate on how the |
| 4344s | community likes it uh I know that there |
| 4347s | have been some |
| 4349s | feedback regarding that the summons were |
| 4352s | to PVP related to PVP focused uh we are |
| 4357s | also looking into that so it would be |
| 4358s | nice if we could send and see what |
| 4361s | players prefer but also give everyone |
| 4364s | the choice to not only play PVE or PVP |
| 4368s | but they can choose on their own |
| 4373s | awesome thank you for answering those |
| 4375s | friends uh there was one for you Chris |
| 4377s | uh regarding if the stalker people can |
| 4380s | use VoIP or not |
| 4382s | uh no it's the beetle is not a proxy for |
| 4386s | the wipe um it makes sense for you to |
| 4388s | keep communicating with your random |
| 4391s | teammates in proximity tutorial Hunter |
| 4393s | uh instead of sending from from the |
| 4396s | beetle |
| 4397s | so no we decided against that quite |
| 4399s | early |
| 4406s | um |
| 4409s | any other questions you guys see that we |
| 4412s | should answer right now |
| 4414s | any of you |
| 4416s | I think we've been through the biggest |
| 4418s | one that there there is a question the |
| 4421s | interesting one although it is not |
| 4423s | strictly related to uh the the updates |
| 4426s | uh features or topics that we we've been |
| 4428s | talking about here but uh there is one |
| 4431s | question coming from Adina |
| 4434s | uh if if we are satisfied with the |
| 4437s | amount of people that were able to |
| 4439s | finish the battle pass it seemed a |
| 4441s | little bit grindy especially in the |
| 4443s | later stages |
| 4444s | and uh only thing I can say to that is |
| 4447s | that |
| 4448s | um we are aware of the feedback and the |
| 4451s | data that we get |
| 4452s | uh for for from all the players |
| 4455s | participating to the event either |
| 4456s | passively or actively and we are on |
| 4461s | doing our best I think to try to |
| 4464s | elaborate whether to make it less grindy |
| 4467s | or more balanced for all stages because |
| 4470s | it is a fact yes that we we had an |
| 4472s | incremental approach to basically the |
| 4475s | requirements for the serpent one so we |
| 4478s | are closely evaluating that |
| 4483s | thank you friends that's great |
| 4485s | uh |
| 4487s | I think uh we answered most of the ask |
| 4490s | questions now and uh I think if there's |
| 4492s | still some questions please as always |
| 4493s | leave it like on the social media |
| 4496s | channels and we can still answer you or |
| 4498s | maybe doing some gameplay streams or uh |
| 4500s | upcoming Dev streams one last question I |
| 4502s | think everyone wanted to know is what |
| 4504s | Tom's cat's name |
| 4506s | yeah |
| 4508s | the name is Conrad |
| 4512s | or |
| 4513s | so yeah |
| 4515s | another great I think to this step |
| 4517s | stream as well uh thank you everyone Tom |
| 4520s | friends Dennis Chris for joining me |
| 4522s | today and talking about the new update |
| 4523s | and we love Conrad |
