I have all but lost intrest.. i really think they missed the mark on this one. They better give a BIG shout out to the mod community when they drop chapter two just for keeping the game relevant. Such a shame it has so much potential.
Its taken them 3 years to make this update, i feel like they lost 90% of their playerbase because of that. Including me. Absolutely LOVED this game, and was waiting eagerly for the new update, but just gave up 2 years in.. Absolutely heartbreaking.
Having a 256 stack of like food, component kits etc is way too over powered but building blocks etc yeah, maybe pipes and such to 64 or 128 (reason for 256 is everything is multiplied by 4 for example: 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256) Having 100% return for recycler feels op too, theres no penalty you can just reuse anything, maybe limit it to getting 50% back seems reasonable and more realistic.
about the fishtailing part, in Fant mod and other popular mods you want to make the offroad tires because they have higher friction stats - you will instantly feel a difference in stability having your weight as low to the ground as possible (or willing) is also one of the biggest factors in making a controllable and steady car
before survival came out I saw the backpack teaser and thought the different backpacks would do different things like hold liquid or unrefined rods. Looking at it today there could be more like refining faster, maybe a jet pack double jump or something at the cost of less space, or at least less space than the upgraded backpack. The one real gripe I have with this game is the lack of variety. I want to go to a far off place, find building parts that are unique to that place, and put it in my car to make it unique. Like imagine if there was an early game electric motor, dropping from an enemy, and it has only one bearing connection. It would be limiting to try to build with it but that's exaclty the point, the game needs to put you in situations where you have to think about what you can make with what you have. I just wish there were more ways to get car parts than smashing green boxes, smashing robots. Like at least let us use vehicles to upgrade vehicles faster, like in the current game it is almost impossible to bring a resource collecter into an abandoned building to avoid manually refining the rods. There's no way to break green chests with a creation so you have to do it manually. so sad
I would love to see couplings added to the game, the idea would be that two blocks on separate contraptions could snap together effectively welding both parts automatically. It would streamline the game by allowing contraptions to work without user intervention.
I had the same idea, I'm working on a mod for that right now! The idea is to be able to connect separate creations without merging them into one creation. This has several benefits. The main selling point is that it makes use of the new Smart Physics, which can deal well with many bodies, as long as they are separate creations! It's still in early development, but I got the connection between bodies working in a pretty good and stable way. This is probably the most difficult part, since the way you interact with the Physics doesn't allow you to do it in a mathematically correct way. But I drove a train with like 7 carts with full frames! It was so much fun, I couldn't stop doing it!! 🥳🥳 So u can be excited!!! I will try to release it in a pre-release version as soon as it is playable.
Raft is another good mod for water physics, and I do wish I could take the crafting ability in crash lander mod to ant's because it definitely seems like crash linger is a lot more of a beginning is a lot more later game
Unlocking parts in craft bot. At start, some parts are locked or unseen. You would get access to more parts by upgrading or by buying plans for better builds.
Aside from water physics all changes y ou've mentioned are immediately addressable in a convenient, iterative manner. Unfortunately there would need to be an update for that to happen. And most of us just don't see that happening. Fant/Crashlanders is y ou r best bet.
Considering the entire game takes place on an island water physics are a must. I functioning propeller would be freaking awesome, using a jet engine or troll physics to make a boat work just sucks the fun out of the game currently.
Going from minecraft to scrap mechanic I found it painful to manage my inventory in this game since moving items from inventory to chests is really wonky. It would be so usefull to be able to pick up half a stack of items like in MC
Fant mod has 4 armours. Each has a helmet, arm, and leg parts. Each part adds to boost and nurfs based on the armour type. Example heavy armour has better damage reduction but slower walk and run speed.
I feel like it's going to be delayed again, because while I understand the optimization with their custom engine isn't easy, it might take more time and effort. either that or they rush some of it out to us and we wonder why we blew up from the red tote bot, and are now running at 2FPM (frames per minute)
Some of the ideas are very smart. But i dont agree with the seed showing thing. If you generate i new world, it's unique, and no one can have the same world as you. And the axolot games are creating a new game engine. They dont use unity or something different. That's why it's hard to do any updates because of the engine. They are lazy. Let's be onest they should hire some one community to keep the players know that there will be something. And that's probably all from me. Anyways. Thanks for the video
"They don't use unity or something different. That's why it's hard to do any updates because of the engine. They are lazy." That makes so little sense lol, if they were lazy they would have used Unity, like Trailmakers or Screwdrivers (or Main Assembly using UE4) building your own game engine because you're not happy with the ones on offer is anything but lazy.
@suicidalbanananana i meant that they made so many dev logs but didn't add any of them, even one. They should do more smaller updates than only one big. The survival upd increased the number of players but for a short time. After the survival, there were no updates, and the players left the game again. I'm still playing it, but there is nothing to surprise me after so much time. And what is your idea why it's taking so long. They have a lot of money and time. I don't see why they can not add *any* of the updates.
Yes please to most of these. Oh and i really hope they fix the vacuum pipes to not be so stupidly laggy, i like setting up my base at one of those chemical stations and then connecting vacuum pipes to water and chemicals, but like 90% of the time even the cases where it only takes ~40 or so vacuum tubes to connect both of these, that is already too much for the game to handle... 😟 I'd be happy just getting "chapter 2" though, at this point HL3 releasing in 2024 seems more likely than getting "chapter 2" for Scrap Mechanic in 2024 😂
I just don't understand why can't we have a freakin WOODEN CHEST.. OR ANY TOOLS... like... we can chop a tree with a hammer but can't crush rocks with it
First, I think it needs a rethink about farming. After you buy the guns, there's no more reasons to farm and with no more farming, no more raids and i love them. About the raids, the robots need a better A.I, it's too easy to defend. And last, a hard mode. The combat is too easy.
They should scrap the whole idea and model structures and let you build vehicles only from blocks because this game will never work with the idea. Big ingame werhouses are made of blocks that load forever. This game will never be what they promote it to be.
If we see chapter 2 before 2030 I would be shocked, besides, how do they justify calling this chapter 2, chapters comes from stories, what was the story of chapter one? What? The game has never had a story. Love the game, hate the devs.
My number 1 want is actually getting the update or proof of life the dev is still kicking has anyone checked since covid ??? That would really take the wind outta your sails for a 2024 release to find out the only dev died during lockdown and nobody noticed because everything is automated lol
They're still around, see their twitter posting the occasional 'teaser' & also they are a company that appears to have at least several staff members for a few years now, remember that they also became a publisher for Raft & they appear to be working on some new game as well.
I JUST WANT TO SEE CHAPTER 2. 4 YEARS. 4 YEARS. 1 YEAR SINCE THE LAST DEVLOG.

P.s they answered why it's not sticky is because its a problem with the game engine and make. Driving more smooth

hopefully my grandchildren will play chapter two when they are 30
More quests would be cool

wpuld love those trees on fire that give "coal"(?) when mined would regrow... coz I farmed them all and npw I can not make any more steel 3 etc😂
There should be several large burnt forests on your map but be careful because if they are far enough from spawn they can have Farmbots in them.
@MediocreMilton I know I farmed them all
It me nice if they had linked chests like Minecraft
you can connect chests together
@MediocreMilton nah i mean double chests not piping connection
