why work on worlds adrift when you can work on surgeon simulator VR?

NDA is lifted, here my story: I played for ten minutes and didn't know what the gently caress to do.

My similar experiences were a good reminder not to sign up for testing games.

Most people probably stopped playing after 10 minutes. They might play longer if they actually met other players. It was sad to see so many unfinished ships while I was island hopping. Majority of those constructions were just frame + helm + core. Not even a sail. I think people who stuck around longer were schematic/knowledge/fashion hunting and you don't really need a ship for that in the alpha. To find out whether or not you're alone on an island, listen for rumbling and look out for screenshake. These two signs mean someone on your island is blowing up rocks while harvesting metal somewhere out of sight. On the other hand if you want to be stealthy, just take care to avoid blowing up rocks while gathering mats.

Played a bit in alpha 4, haven't logged into the latest. Spent a couple hours figuring out the finicky ship building interface and then had my ship stolen before I got to fly it because there's no way to lock ships. Spent the next few hours pissing in the cornflakes of others with ridiculously OP C4. The only non-loseable progression are the recipes you learn but you will rarely use them because ships take a shitton of mats to build. Devs are vehemently opposed to the entire concept of safe spaces, so it's a griefers paradise. Grappling hook is pretty fun though.

i think there are some anti-theft measures you can take but it's a game about sky piracy, get ready to gain and lose ships, fortunes, etc

I thought it got Delayed a while back which isn't bad in this case. I like the overall design, but hope they can make more of a "game" out of it. I messed around a few playtest back for a few hours. Made a flyable boat and traveled to a few islands. (Make sure you bring enough fuel). Overall it would be fun with friends, but they need to have some premade destinations and maybe random treasure islands with NPC's guarding them so you can fight your way in for the loot for your ship or something. Still has a long way to go, but the art style, grappling around once you figure out how it works, and traveling to new islands is pretty neat.

I know the island creator lets you place treasure on your islands now, but I don't think you can place enemies. A lot of the old islands that made it into the game probably didn't get treasure re-edited into them though.

Aren't some of the islands also procedurally generated too?

I think so? Honestly I've screwed around with the builder but I never got into the tests. The builder definitely has the features that would let them randomly generate islands en masse.

Made a boat, added some rare cannons but I can't research ammo for them yet. Fell to my death shitloads of times. Wings and wall panels like to freak out like Skyrim cabbages and randomly murder you. Crew respawner first, small box second to store stuff you're not using right away. I have a recording from my twitch stream if anyone wants.

https://www.twitch.tv/therealbeepl/v/111034050 You can safely skip probably like the first hour after I fall to my death, it's mostly running around and trying to build something.

As long as they give me more than just build a ship, fly said ship and fight over the ship I will be more than happy to throw some money at them. I know that you need to discover crafting blueprints in the game not through level up so there's that but I feel like they will need 1 or 2 more activities to keep the game interesting. Like if you could be an archeologist and re learn how to read the hieroglyphs you could figure out the back story of the world and get cosmetic treasure for your ship and character to show that you made the effort. Or if they added more creatures other than the sky Ray and whale like sharks and schooling fish and giant birds and dragon's to spice up the pve experience a bit so players arnt the only hazard in the world.

I'm in as well. And European. Time to get a channel on the SA Discord or start our Discord server? Edit: It also seems each person selected will get an extra key for a friend. I might bring some friends from outside SA and otherwise, will be posting my key here. Edit 2: Correction, will be giving my key away here. Since I'm not sure if the forum can be seen by non-members atm and I don't want some random lurker grabbing it instead of a goon.

Yea do it over PMs if that's your goal, keys posted openly are almost always grabbed by outsiders or lurkers

I guess this is their first stress test 1. Did Pavlov get a friend key yet 2. Is  Alliance Leader Alexander DeLarge gonna be around for this or should we set up a temp group?

Lastgirl posted:wow thats rude as h*ck Yeah the hand one. I only know because someone commented on the workshop page that they found the island in a test and some of the items were screwy. It's not the dev's fault though, the account for signing up for the alpha isn't connected to my steam account.
