Great feedback vetemor, I had the same experience. It's worth making sure players know what to do, else we will lose them quickly. Maybe we should even have in-game instructions whenever entering one of the regions, but adding a menu item with controls is also a no-brainer.
Yeah I think controls visible in the Menu is a great idea plus maybe adding a tip there "struggling to find anything? Try using the Heat Map" or something. Otherwise I'm guessing that once the main game launch comes there will be not only controls u can check but also some kind of basic tutorial as well which will be super helpful
My son was playing yesterday and couldn’t find any rocks. He actually went back to Crimson Waste because he thought that’s the only place rocks were and he needed shards.
@@Vetemor Wouldn’t have thought to do that since the heat map didn’t really have any value last time around. I actually watched a Scoriox run to see if he found any rocks because I thought maybe this is actually part of the game where certain resources are only found in certain regions like rocks for shards.
@@mercuryroad55 thankfully every region has about the same distribution, just on launch some illuvials will be more common in some regions (maybe similar for certain items or resources as well) but still same distribution of instances, rocks and plants
Good feedback Vetemor, but game still feel static, plasticky and empty. More rocks aint going to make it lively. More Like running on movie set then on some natural biom.
@@TheSzpaku007 I mean its just a collection game, its kinda what it is, main game far as im concerned is the PvP, this is a glorified pack opening end of the day... defo improvement will come to overworld over time but not the end all be all
I used heat map in the previous version too tbh. The "always dense" spots were always 2 or 3, but their density weight was different each run... I didn't try this version yet but maybe they improved it by a lot if you say that.
@@Vetemor Would be cool to use the hover board to ride down the pink vines. Overall though I keep trying to collect so there are some aspects to the loop that I find addicting. Levels are big and colorful, I know there will be more interaction upon release but It would be nice to interact with the huge levels in more ways. Noticed they changed the sound for jetpack and boots and it sounds good, sounds for the game are improved. I admire your honesty, I love the project but the only thing that keeps it getting better is the honest criticism not just fanboy the project cause were bag holders, Thanks!
@@RUclipsDon245 Appreciate that ser, will continue being flat out honest about my feelings on any aspects of Illuvium always, its the only way to go and adds more value than mindlessly moonboying lol. Love you're enthusiasm and agree the sounds and expansiveness in Overworld are great and feel really immersive, actually really enjoy Overworld (now that I know about the Heat Map lol)
I would prefer if the regions was split into 12 pieces , that would make it more of a "pack opening game". And since that is all there is, it would not feel so time consuming and empty. becaus realisticly overworld is not much of a game, its just a map
with the current build and using the heat map its kinda great cos it doesnt take too long to gather everything and because the heat map is different each time u explore a different part of the map each run making it feel more re-playable and less stale, i like that
@@Vetemor Yupp! you were right and now i agree, the heat map did the job now making the region more alive then i felt it did in the pb1. But to one of your other points about not haveing controls shown in game, I saw cryptostache stream this beta a day or two ago, and he knew about some of the new features witch he said on stream but he had trouble on finding out on how to use them, he found how to slide, but not the flying suit thing. And he did not no about the heat map, witch made him showing of abysal basin look pretty bad, it was completly empty and just him jumping around looking at thing. And ofc showing of the game in that way is not good for the game
@@nippe848 it defo isn't good for the game, i made feedback internally and received strong support so the next update will defo include controls in the menu whenever that comes...
I am curious I didn't fill a big report but I had a similar experience and I literally ONLY found a rock and like 25+ Morphopods flying around but little to nothing else!!!!!! I'm curious how the game treats Morphopods, rocks, and singularities and what priority it creates each one when starting up the overworld... Very frustrating run that time I haven't encountered a similar instance yet! But because it did happen I am very leery about drop rates for such things if they are messing with my singularity and resource gathering.
I do not agree! There is a huge problem with the world being tooooo empty. We should not downplay this issue, otherwise illuvium will not be successful. More than 95% of the time in illuvium you are just running around. This is fun for the first hour playing the overworld, but already in the second hour it becomes boring. There need to be more objectives and more things you can actually do, interact with or hunt down. For example movable targets to shoot down with your weapon to collect items. And way more things that can kill you. The potential of illuvium is huge, and it would be so sad if it would not be widely accepted, because it‘s too boring to play the overworld.
there will be a lot more objectives and achievements when the game comes out and this is just a glorified pack opening, there will also be PvP. But generally speaking there are a lot of v popular games that are just resource collection and crafting mostly and those games arent for everyone but they have their niche, imo overworld is such a game. post launch they will continue to add to it over time and it may end up being way way more engaging, but if on launch its not really more engaging than this then imo that is fine

Good to be back ser, appreciate the comment

Nice nice, glad I saw this video before even installing the new PB ^^
#HeatMapForLife Enjoy Ser

Yup, show him the Heat Map and he'll be finding rocks everywhere!

Its way more useful than it used to be, cant run without it
The thumbnail was fire for this one 🔥🔥
I gotchu bro #baited
I wish there were more than one nice hill to ride down in brightland steppes on the hover board.
agree, that one hill is so damn nice that it makes all the other hills there seem meh 😂

Yeah, that confused me too. I was about to go to Discord and go on a rant and then I gave the heatmap a chance...now I'm full of materials 😂haha
SAME, I was soooo close on going ham on discord and then I got that email and realised the error of my ways
Great video mate
Appreciate that Ser
