I know, sometimes I can have a terrifyingly deep voice. I was a bass singer in a choir a few decades ago..

@SolearGnG nice :D

No denying it, and they know what they are doing. It could have been any other book. :D So far the execution is pretty good. The only thing I've not seen is how the play will be different for other players, and now that I think back the demo it felt like the loadouts made it a bit easy to generalize. This will probably change later on - why would you pull lut a 2h sword when you dressed as a mage? I can imagine something like an archer mage though, so if I'd have been the dev, I'd have set max 2 loadouts. That would help with combat variety but also limit the choice a bit. In any case, the demo was good, I have another 3 videos on this, so stay tuned! 😁

@@SolearGnG So I look forward to the next episodes to see what else the game has to offer. 😁

Indeed it is. The deeper you dig, the more things surface that were not even obvious to me in the demo. There's outpost building in it. And magic.. It also have 12 player mutiplayer.. Check the trailer on stream when you have a second.

Thanks for checking it!

Ahhh come oon, geez.. Don't look at this, it's soo old, my mic was soo bad, music too loud etc.. This is literally my first video I made for youtube.. :D

It's fantastic! Shows progress.. and totally should be archived in a vault somewhere.

@@chaoticserenityart You can put any picture on any LCD if you want. Check out Whip's Image converter for SE. It's pretty easy to use you probably have seen me use it too a few times. Just add your image, select the LCD you want to add it on, then insert the characters the program generates on the LCD, change the font to Monospace, and decrease the font size, and that's it. Adding it as anything of decent quality though, that needs more work. If you are not familiar with that, I can make a tutorial video.

I'm happy that you liked it. The new Age of Mythology is great!

Indeed. And this was the default material. With a bit more tinkering, you could even add more metalics and shininess to the thing. That's why I said before that this is just the first step. You can add more sounds, more thruster effects movement, cinematic cameras etc.. Lots and lots of work, but at least the part I thought is hard (getting the model into UE) is actually pretty easy, and it looks good.

It's really nice. I played the Forest 1 a while ago, and, though I never finished it, I have good memories of it. Sons of the forest is similar but upgraded with more characters, interesting build system. I really enjoyed playing it, as you can tell, this stream was meant to be 2 hours.

Thanks I have 1 more video of this, then we'll move on to something else. Or if it gets popular, then I'll make more.

Some of it is in the description under the video. Exporting the model is ctrl+alt+e ingame, the rest is just Unreal Engine. In short, I just set a new map, added foliage with trees to the scene and sculpted the landscape a bit. There are some additional things you can do to make it better and "cinematic" but the point of this video was only to showcase that SE ship can be exported from the game and put into Unreal. It's mostly to raise attention for people better at unreal than me, since these can be used as tool to create cinematics and machinima for space engineers eventually. I did plan to make different short films in the future if I can, since my main concern was how to get the ships out - and it turns out that's the easy part 😁

To be honest any additional potential would also mean a lot of work, like days, but yeah.. Imagine the next server having a cinematic intro..

Thanks for the suggestion. I don't normally go back to older streams, but I'll consider it. There are games that are good for videos and shorter content, and others that I feel like better played on stream without cutting. Space Engineers can work both ways. Unfortunatelly time is a factor. I have a full time job, a house to maintain alone etc, so can't always spend much time video editing, that's why most of my videos uncut. The problem, as you also noticed, is not with quantity, but quality 😅😅

I'm pretty sure they will be either adequate or equal to prototech warships, maybe more. Their firepower comes from railguns and summoned small ships. They could be overpowered, but I also saw ships larger than yours crippled by them..

Technically great, but I think they missed something from it. It doesn't feel like your character is the hero anymore. But at least they are looking good while doing it :D

😊​@@SolearGnG

It was great in the old days, I loved it, the new coat elevates it. I almost wonder about how much time gamedevs should take on polishing their game after seeing this :D Probably not 10 years, but this remake shines on polish, since they didn't need to do much with the actual gameplay, or concept or models etc. The remake is probably like 80% polish only.

​@@SolearGnG🤝🤝

We're gonna grind sown EVERYTHING. Initially I thought we can turn some part of it to a ship, but the more I look at it, the least appealing that work seems to be.. Plus they deserve it! We are now prepping to take on a factorum encounter.. Not sure if it happens later today, but we'll see. I'm in the middle of building a larger ship, but based on what I saw from the encounters so far, we are f**ked no matter what I build.. :D

@@SolearGnG I suggest a grinder ship and put a connector on your container or just make the trips back to your base. You'll be grinding up a lot of ships and bases pretty soon, and they will get increasingly far away. I also suggest taking direct command of the assault cannons and sniping out the enemy turrets manually. I highly recommend building a ship printer. There are some really great blueprints out there for ships that people spent ages making just that one ship. It's by far the fastest easiest way to learn to build great ships. Plus you'll need it for repairs as well as making drones and missiles anyway. What I do mostly is just use Isy's autocrafting to make enough to build my fleet load out. When I have a large ship to print up, turn autocrafting off temporarily and then I use the projector to assembler script to make sure I have every single part I need to make the ship before I even start printing the first block. I have a Excavos script miner with drills on the bottom for hole digging and another one with them on the front for leveling out a deposit, and a welder ship. I also usually make a small hover bike to get around running errands in.I suggest you make one of these per member of your faction so you can parallelize any operation. I love your base design, I suggest just building out landing pads slightly bigger by 2 or 3 more blocks and spacing them out farther so you aren't pinned in when landing and taking off. Have a small drone pad with those packed in, some good distance from where larger ships dock. A welder ship will make building out bigger areas much less work. I don't think you're ready for Factorum just yet. You're getting a lot warmer with the heavy assault ship you built. Keep hitting assert bases until you can take one without losing something like that first. Factorum have railguns and can snipe you from 4k away before you can do anything about it. You're going to need drones and missiles, they have those too. The diversion tactic you used works well, even against other players, most of the time. AI just won't ever figure that out it seems.

Maan.. 1 direct hit!.. I'm actually lucky that my mic was muted there.. YT wouldn't like to translate what I said off mic.. :D

@@SolearGnG After the prior two similar incidents it was ..just...yeah. I was laughing until you started talking again, after completely cleaning up the rather surprisingly little amount that was left of the wreckage. Hint : Armor panels, in general, are not worth much at all. Heavy if anything other than cosmetic only. This might not be a good 'time', but when you are carrying another ship, make sure that ship has it's inertia dampeners turned off. Otherwise the thrusters and the gyro on the carried ship are going to fight you the entire way. I'm pretty sure that's why you crashed your drop-issle, and the carry ship prior to that. /auuagh.. I think a remote control and the vector thrust script can deal with whatever thrusters you have, but the ai blocks need all six or they are just broken. When I first started playing a very long time ago, I didn't know what I was doing so I spawned in this huge battleship with an advanced small grid bridge. It was really something else back in those days. I spent real life days fooling around with it, learning stuff and upgrading it, finally had it 'ready' so I took it into a dangerous encounter. The first hit destroyed my entire bridge and the entire small grid bridge cleverness, that was my single point of control if you didn't already guess, dislodged from the fragile hinges it was attached to and one side of it sailed into me in my control seat and killed my clone. I woke up in a survival pod. I know how it is. 😀

@@samuelallen1402 Damn, I learn something every day.. I thought it's the gyros that needs to be turned of, but offing dumpeners makes more sense. Thanks! Damn, that's one sad story man.. Did you at least have a blueprint of it or that part of the learning experience came later? :D

@@SolearGnG Oh yeah, I had a blueprint and I even had the saved game. Let's just say the defeat was so total I didn't even bother trying it again with that ship. Now I usually have an observation bridge just because I like to actually see out of the windows when nothing particularly threatening is going on, but as soon as major combat starts I move down to auxiliary control, deep in the ship to run any major battle. Sometimes, that even works. Nearly a decade later, (gasp) I still won't even attempt mixing grid sizes on ships as I still have some GTESD ( game traumatic experience stress dysfunction, aka wisdom ) from the experience. Even though I have a good understanding of klang now and have very few problems with it, especially now Keen fixed a lot of hit boxes to reduce it quite some time back now. I still resist multi-grid solutions on my larger battleships, although now it's less klang than fragility that is the main reason. I just won't use them for critical functions as they tend to just fly apart as soon as block deformity hits them or anything they are attached to. Using blast doors, and now the lighter truss blocks that don't deform when hit all around them helps a lot, as does a built in welder. That also means I specifically design parts of my bigger ships and stations to be able to deal with things like landing, docking and embarkation without fancy contraptions. This helps to reduce panic when I have no jetpack left, or don't even have a jetpack and need to get on or off to a station or the ground. Also, it generally prevents my docks from getting scorched and parts destroyed when I am just making a Klang cola stop. I'm not at all opposed to having a connector on a hinge and a piston to hook up to a trade station I otherwise can't land on, just that isn't something that would be mission critical or retracted inside the ship, if it gets destroyed outside and flies away, I can easily rebuild it, if it breaks loose inside and sails through two walls into a jump drive, it's a problem. It might well just get built when needed then removed.

@@samuelallen1402 I don't have good experience with mixing grids also, but sometime you just need an AI controlled larger turret.. For anything else.. probably stick to the grid size. It will be interesting to see what happens in SE 2, if you've seen the news letter they sent recently, it will have a completely different building system.

Olá! :D

We do but we are picky :D We normally play with people we have known for a while or observed and know their commitment level, and mentality towards others etc. An SE community is also depend on what type of gameplay you are looking for, gigabuild, PVP, factions whatever. My discurd is in the description of all my videos, if you haven't noticed that yet, you probably haven't been here much :D Which is cool, and welcome. Check out our gameplay, and if you think you'd be a good fit join on discord. If you are looking for more people that like PVP, I can suggest SA Discord. They are almost our sister-discord they just play the game differently. Here's an invite to them: discord.gg/en4bYn4k They've specifically made this discorf to find people to play with. I think they would be a good fit for you.

👏

🤷‍♂ I actually like night maps. My favorite is the Mausoleum, but I think they are all good in general.

I'm happy that you like it. More will come soon. I've finished the expansion recently. Episodes 6-9 will come tomorrow, the rest on Sunday.

Thanks for checking it.

Young man? :D I'm 41.😅 I know my voice won't show it that much though, so understandable😁.. Thanks for checking out the video! I'll stream the new Space Engineers update starting from next week. You are welcome to check in any time!

@@SolearGnG 41 is still young! And I am very happy to hear you will be streaming, I will be checking it out ❤

I'm normally a pretty peaceful SE player, but I'm sure there will be plenty of fighting in this update. I need to up my fighter skills.. 😁 Thanks for checking it!

It would be, if there wouldn't be hickups when I'm turning around :D But yeah, they updated a lot from the starting experience. I like the new things, but I shouldn't see any graphical issues..

Puck's just trying to jump scare you every time you turn around is all. Maybe one day they will make a pretty game that's great to play. ​@@SolearGnG

@@chaoticserenityart It's 0.5 so they have time. 😄

Eventually, she did. 😅 Better late than never.

@@SolearGnG Chaotic turned up on a Wednesday thinking it was Tuesday . Didn't help that I then questioned the day myself at that point. 😂

Yes, and I think the other maps have it too. My favorite is the Elephant Mausoleum Night Time.. That thing is creepy as hell.. For me it came very rarely, like once in every 15-20 runs I get 1 might time..

You do? :D I think they still have some things they need to iron out, but they have time before release. It'll be interesting to see how they evolve.

Later on we are planning a coop in this too, when I play this with Serenity. Originally I planned this to be a short series since this is in alpha, but after playing it for a while, I see some potential for fun gameplay. Regarding how it works: It's, as far as I understands, runs a chatgpt 4o Mini - but not sure if it runs them for each NPC or one thread handles all NPCs. They then have some back and forth with the environment, and interact with things they can interact with like food, bed etc, and their next action is directed by chatGPT and the scenario.

@SolearGnG nice :D im checking out the videos

Indeed.. Almost everyone I talked to on this have no problem killing it, even much easier than me, with the granade luncher, yet getting the pack is still BS hard.. The tacticks that the discord seem to think is the best is: - Bring a scanner - Kill it in the hangar so the boxes won't fly around.. If you won't see the box, just restart, because it's either not dropping or falling underground (some people confirmed with a tactical cam that they can fall through the ground too..

Also.. I am allergic to bananas, definitely great weapon of choice.

How the heck ar you this fast? :D I just posted this, and got scared I posted the wrong video since there were already comments on it :D

​@@SolearGnGI was tempted to just post a random comment the second I saw this, by chance at 1min after uploaded. But I wanted to watch a bit of it soon. It's actually still playing 😊.

Yeah, that's in a different area I think. I've yet to venture too much to the last 2 maps, the mech trench and the small one.. I'll make some videos of those too later on. I'm not to concerned with Water though, I'm at 98/99 for a while now.. I kinda reached the end of the early access, all there is left for me to do is level another character perhaps.

The choppy animations are not game peformance issue, on the contrary, it is a Level of details thing in Unreal., They only render things with full power at a close range. Everything you don't see is low res, everything that is far away is low res. They don't play the fuill animation, just every few feames of it to save computing power.. It was not made for scope action games.. Same reason you see 2d cutout cars in CP2077 if you look on a far highway in a scope there.. Thanks for checking out the video! I plan to make more, but there are SO MANY interesting games out there!

There's a whole thread on their thread dedicated on their discord just for the red baron and the boxes.. It looked like they just don't drop all the boxes, but with what you say, it seems more logical that it always drop 4 boxes, just sometimes some get lost in delivery.. I saw kills with 2 boxes remaining, or 3, even 4 with no banner.. We were trying to figure out how this works for a while.. My success rate with scanner though is around 1/6-10 kills when I can find / extract the banne.. out of 10 tries I think I can kill the baron all the time, can find the banner 2 times and can exrtact 1-2 times.. I wonder if this is planned difficulty or just a result of some jenk buggy implementation..

Cyborgs are the national champions of "punchies". Their coach was the Baron..

Same as yours, mate :D

@@SolearGnG a réz angyalát

More is coming, mate! :D

I have more coming. This was my initial play session. In later ones I managed to bring them closer to the scenario end and made the scenario shorter too. Thanks for checking it out 😁

I never go anywhere without them anymore. Except for the anti-tank.. There's no silencing the 1000 damage :D

Thanks Grumbles! To be honest this is the beginning of the game, and I didn't really get some game mechanics. But I still have 3-4 videos of the early game coming. Forever Winter is a pretty interesting game, and it has coop. If you like the atmosphere, you can try it out too. The devs are comitted to keep the price low so it should be around 27 usd only.

@@SolearGnG that's not a bad price! I'll definitely look into during our grumbleween next month 👍🐶

Thanks, we are still building the server. Yesterday we more or less finalized the mods. We might make things a bit harder. If you are interested in joining to play on this, head over to the discord and we can talk there about the details.

@@SolearGnG Thanks :D

Indeed, I've not expected to have this much fun, but it's a really good game. Quite specific in what they do, but for me, who don't even have a drivers license, it was still enjoyable. Easy to start hard to master, and the challage is quite often unexpected things like.. Ugh, I run out of fuel :D Or "I thought I can cross that river, I guess my engine is flooded now" 😅 It's on gamepass if you have that, you can try it out.
