Thanks for the update!! 25 sounds pretty amazing. Going to add my feedback here.

- Deep Dives: LOVE IT. This smacks of the instances of the MMORPG's of old. Just what we need!

- "Batteries": I'm glad you put this in quotes, it's feeling a little forced to me. Too.... anthrocentric. I fear this has the ability to detract from some of the core mystique of a mission, and that is the feeling of _exploring_. Why are we finding batteries way down deep in the planet where no one has ever been before? How did they get there? Why are the batteries down there, but machines are on regular shallow missions? I understand that you need something to activate the machine encounters.... but, can we maybe agree that it could be something like "core diamonds" retrieved from the crust/mantle boundary of Hoxxes IV - real exotic treasure? I feel like that would scratch the mining itch better anyway.

And for "Machine Encounters", if I find someone ...

Don't worry. It should fit in the games lore-wise. It's not going to be a "fresh apple on a mummified corpse in an ancient tomb" kinda thing.

Well they'll still get randomly generated only the map will be generated the same for everyone (basically how the Prismatic Trials from Risk of Rain 2 work. Same map seed for everyone, and then resets to a new one after a while). At least that's my take on it. It could be just random for everyone but limited to the amount of times you can run it.

This is correct. Same seed for everyone, so cave layout and monster pool should be the same. Spawn & timing will vary, so gameplay wise it's not a 1:1 experience.

Argh, can't come up with anything.

It's not.

Thanks man, did they ever say if they're working on it or if it'll be an upcoming patch?

All I know is that they did a bunch of tests on it. Hopefully, it's been fixed, but I honestly don't know the current status. It's certainly something we'll aim to improve.

If by “personally delivers” you mean “will give you an approving upvote on Reddit”, then maybe, yes.

This was almost a slogan, but it was rejected by management.

So what you're telling me is... the constant Glyphid threat preventing us from extracting every available resource from Hoxxes IV is actually necessary to your business model?

Deep Rock is choosing dangerous mining locations to keep the dwarves from destabilizing the mineral market.

That's actually kind of brilliant.

Those quotas are there to limit the size of payouts per mission and artificially control the intergalactic market value of morkite. A team of dwarfs addicted to stripmining could easily blow our entire budget in a few months and would risk devaluing the goods. We can’t have that, now can we?

If you're going to post this every day, you're going to post this a couple of times more, so you might as well save it. :D

Yeah, the fire is definitely over in the Xbox department. Just wanted to take a minute to defuse any potential misunderstandings, since I’ve seen some people ask why we’re working on the next update without the current one released on Xbox.

This guy wants a new roadmap already when xbox/Microsoft store players didnt even get the last update yet lol.

Those two things are not related, though. The roadmap is mostly art and designers coming together, while the Xbox update has other people assigned to it to get it cleared.

If there was an achievement, would it still be accidental?
