the reason the old birds do not fly with you on top of them is because old birds have a sense of if a player is nearby them, when youre in a specific radius of one thats active, it will not leave the area and turn on its spotlight much more frequently to search for you until you leave or die but yes, you will remain on top of one flying, however im pretty sure you die from position desyncing when it drops back down
So unfortunately I tested for multiple in-game days and on multiple moons (eclipsed as well) and NONE of the old birds were flying up anymore. Whether I was on their head or not. Some days I tried to just hide and wait off to the side. Nothing. They don’t seem to know you’re on their head or turn on their spotlight either. It feels as if their ability to fly up is gone in this patch.
Imagine if you went to an Old Bird moon, and if you got a meteor shower, they would leave. So that the company who made the (halden electronics/military company, or whoever made 'em), wouldn't lose prebuilt machines and save materials and money.
I did not see an old bird flying but I heard one up in the air yesterday, so idk what is going on other than player distance preventing them from flying.

@@iElucianit's beta maybe zeekerss will fix it in an official update, and if not there are always modders
Hi Purple
the meteor shower sound will be forever ptsd.
it's actually so shocking
@@iElucian it sounds like one of those analog horror warning noises
probably gonna trigger those who had to deal with EAS systems (which I'm 100% convinced were an inspiration)
Badass profile pic but red knight was better
@@toastedshots k
The pioneers used to ride these babies for miles
wait, which pioneers were those?
Our long-missing employee seniors, of course
"you'd have a mobile company cruiser"
ah yes, distinct from the very much not mobile company cruiser, of course
Exactly 😂 that thing’s a mess and impossible to drive
@@iElucian what.... did you just say...
@@iElucian
Skill issue.
I actually just got my company cruiser professional drivers license
STOPP “Easy Girl” “shh it’s gonna be okay”
😏😏😏
@@iElucian AHHH WHAT 💀💀💀💀
the old birds flying up was one of my favourite parts so i hope it isnt removed
I hope it isn't either! I was really hoping to fly up on top of him and look down lol
@@iElucianI've seen an old bird fly in v64.
@@Soul_TwisterI hope it works again! I noticed since this video zeekerss updated to the official public release so maybe he fixed it
Flying being disabled is hopefully just an unintentional bug from the riding addition
That’s awesome! I can’t wait to see what else Zeekers will add in v64. He’s really pumping out new content!
Man Zeekers has been cooking!
Lol such a random addition but I love it
Neon Genesis: Lethal Companion (?) lol mecha fights!!! 🔥
man i knew the chaos would be great on embrion with the old birds and asteroids i need to try it out still myself

This video looks like it probably took a couple or few hours to make
😔
Like 20 minutes
I did not see an old bird flying but I heard one up in the air yesterday, so idk what is going on other than player distance preventing them from flying.
So I think since this video Zeekerss both fixed it AND removed the ability to ride on top of old birds
@@iElucian :( I was gonna try it next session I had.
Old birds are the best
You should make more videos like this, it's so funny
o7 I'm on it, sir. Thank you!
This is too funny 😭
Can someone tell me every noteworthy addition to the game since the spike traps and bird things that carry you away? Please
That could take years
@@iElucian isnt there only like 3 or so updates since then??
YEARS
Hello there!
sadly removed because Zeekerss could not make it work properly b4 he went on break
Tragically I saw that 😔
Very usefull again ❤ 😊
Yippee
I have no clue what you guys are talking about the old birds still fly
It was only broken for this little patch. You can also no longer stand on them, it was only a short time
Wait so there's meteor showers in vanilla?
YEP: ruclips.net/video/RP5POthPVEs/видео.html
@@iElucian that's pretty cool, at the end there were literally millions, then the masked kissed you as a goodbye.
ayo is this a real update?
it sure is v64 public beta
