30s a
40s [Music]
49s it should be here somewhere oh there it
53s is all right let's see what's on this
56s bad
59s boy oh automated
62s Miner
66s lame one area of the game that we want
68s to improve is how you acquire Al recipes
72s the way it works right now is every time
73s you find and research a hard drive
75s you'll be prompted to pick one of three
77s rewards selected from a pool of rewards
80s that for the vast majority consist of
82s alt recipes and the game does going to
84s really let you continue using the mam
86s until you've picked one of the rewards
88s in the random draw this is quite
90s disruptive and for new players in the
92s early game you don't really know like
94s what alt recipes you want to unlock and
97s in the case for veteran players where
98s you're actively looking for a specific
100s alt recipe to unlock the random Factor
103s can be a bit annoying uh we still want
105s there to be some element of Randomness
107s when it comes to which alt recipe
109s becomes available to you but we want you
111s to have a little bit more control over
113s it uh funny side note there's currently
115s a bug in update 8 where it's actually
117s possible to reset the hard drive
119s research uh we fixed that bug during the
122s experimental period for update 8 but
124s then it reappeared again on the Early
126s Access release and I think uh I think
129s many people believe we brought it back
131s due to community feedback because people
132s started complaining when we fixed it but
135s uh nope uh we didn't we we goofed up
138s you're you're not supposed to be able to
140s do that uh anyways we wanted to improve
143s this aspect of the game regardless so we
145s decided to change how this system
147s functions and here's how you can expect
149s it to work from now on in the molecular
152s analysis machine we've introduced the
154s hard drive Library this is a new tab in
156s the maam that will list all hard drives
158s that have been researched you can still
160s only research one hard drive at a time
163s but you no longer need to select one of
165s the rewards from the research before you
166s start the research of another so if you
169s need some time to think about it or you
171s want to do some research online uh the
173s hard drive rewards will be there waiting
175s for you until you make a decision when
178s you select a researched hard drive in
180s the Library you'll be prompted with the
182s choice of two alt recipes that you can
184s unlock we decided to reduce the number
186s from 3 to two because we felt that a lot
188s of players got decision paralysis and
191s we're hoping that reducing the amount
192s down to two will make the decision a
194s little easier but wait a second that
197s means that we'll have less to choose
198s from for every hard drive if I'm looking
200s for a specific alt recipe I'll need to
203s research way more hard drives actually
205s no because we've added the ability to
208s roll the reward selection so for every
210s hard drive you researched you'll have
212s the option to roll the rewards once for
215s the possibility of two new recipes drawn
218s this means that for every hard drive
220s you'll have the chance of viewing four
221s alt recipes from the pool of yet to be
223s unlocked recipes once you decided to
225s reroll you won't be able to select
227s either of the previous two recipes
229s though so you're taking a little bit of
230s a gamble the rroll will also never grab
233s an ALT recipe that has already been
235s presented for that hard drive so you're
237s essentially guaranteed four unique
239s recipes per hard drive if you choose to
241s roll and four is more than three okay
244s quick side note here is that the rewards
246s pool only consists of alt recipes that
249s you can currently take advantage of so
251s as you unlock new tiers in the game the
253s current rewards pool will increase with
255s alt recipes relevant to your currently
257s unlocked Milestones this is how it works
260s currently in the game and there are no
262s changes to this aspect in 1.0 this means
264s that if you're looking for a specific
266s alt recipe Cas crew is in the early game
269s uh you'll have a significantly higher
272s chance of finding it by rrolling any
274s currently unclaimed rewards in the hard
276s drive Library will also be reserved from
278s the pool when a hard drive is picking
280s rewards from the pool and this includes
283s rerolls so if you want to maximize the
286s chance of getting the alt recipe you
288s want you can just save up your hard
289s drives until you get the alt recipe
291s you're looking for final thing I want to
293s mention is that there are still going to
294s be more hard driv scattered around the
296s world than there are alt recipes to
298s unlock so it will will be possible to
300s unlock every single alt recipe in the
303s game and that's pretty much the gist of
305s the functionality of the new hard drive
307s Library we're pretty happy with the
309s change and uh we hope you'll like it too
312s so let us know in the comments what you
313s think and uh yeah stay tuned for more
316s content as we're finally back from
318s vacation now and we're working on the
321s finishing touches on the game before it
323s release on September 10th so until the
325s next video see you
328s around and who knows maybe in the next
330s video we'll talk about
332s lasers wa zoom in on my face when I do
336s [Music]
343s that uh I think that's it it's a really
346s short video but that's I mean short
349s videos are good too you know what I mean
359s [Applause]
