Quoth the Raven "I love the power glove. It's so bad..."
did a longer session with a friend. he was completely new and ive done maybe an hour. the guild thing was not obvious and we had pretty established bases by then. you can only have one base per guild, altho you can maybe get one more? idk a little awkward. decent grind so far but feels a little slow compared to what im seeing with youze guys

As you do the missions you see on the right side when you're near the palbox your base will level up and at certain levels (9,14, 31 so far I've seen) you can build another base within a guild.

Can Pokémon use doors or should I construct their dwellings like lean-to’s? My sheep dudes seem confused in the closed barracks I made them.

If you have a foundation that's just got a door tile on it try putting stairs beneath the door, sometimes it'll fix their pathing.

My original base is now just an ammo sweatshop. I have 6 tables with Pals constantly crafting ammo and one for gunpowder.

Is there anyway to bind any controls to the mouse? Trying to rebind all the controls is an exercise in madness right now. F is the default button to pick up and drop a pal, but if you remap the pal ability button to E, then F becomes the undocumented pick up button and E is used to drop them?

I use AutoHotKey for this and a lot of other games with binding issues. It's pretty straightforward. This is my script (so far)

The hardest part of this game is catching a monster before the Firefox logo and purple ghost double blast it to death. Doesn't help I upgraded my weapons and sometimes I one shot the weaker guys. Is there a better way to catch super low level things eventually, some kind of weakling ball?

Also what do I do with this badguy/raider I accidentally caught? Do I start building some kind of Mother Base MGSV style or do I just need to let him free and knock him out if he attacks?

Decent enough. Mostly above 30 with some small dips below.

Wish it had FSR though that would help a lot.

Man I just can’t get ore moving fast enough autonomously. I have a dedicated mining base set up with like 6 ore nodes and a bunch of digitoise (who are mining rank 3) with rank 2 and 3 haulers and they still mine really slow.

It’s tedious but just heading to the field myself with a Rushoar (or whatever the rideable pig’s name is) and bulldozing nodes is way faster.

Press 4 and set your pals to Not Attack, bottom left. This turns off the auto-pal attacks like daydream and dazzi too

6 minutes until my Huge Dragon Egg I found hatches Edit: it was a Relaxasaurus, what a ripoff I already have 2 of them.

I also explored the lava mountain and came away with 14 regular size Scorching Eggs, 3 Large, and 1 Huge. That was awesome.

I bought a univolt off a merchant.



Turns out it is extremely useful for capturing all those small Pals that get obliterated by my modern weapons. You can trample them, get them ready for capture in two or three hits then snatch them up without a fuzz. It takes a few seconds and feels very intuitive because the trample deals damage based on how fast you are going so it is easy to measure when to slow down.

I'm not sure if other mounts can trample like that but it's a life-changer for capturing anything smaller than a Hoocrates.

It clearly has height maps around it so I expect it'll eventually be real given the only cinematic in the game so far.

Game rules. Runs flawlessly on Linux, and while it took some fiddling to get the docker container working, dedicated server is great. Needs more rcon command support, and the in-game chat cuts off longer sentences.

Cool and good.
Played about 12 hours with the wife only for the save to end up corrupted. Not best impressed. Game pass version is very janky in places and I'm not paying for this, let's hope it gets patched quickly and I can recover the save.

I wonder if it will load on Xbox, I'll have to try tomorrow

The gamepass version blows and I would almost think it's a clever ploy to get people to shell out on Steam. I didn't think it was worth admission either but the steam version really is better by a lot. I've played this dumb meme game all weekend.

There's multiple recent articles about the gamepass issue being 100% not the devs control. It's attracting a lot of negative attention for the service, not the game itself, which is good.

Allegedly at least 3-6 months behind. Because of the lack of crossplay plus Gamepass limited to 4 person co-op the two versions won't be comparable any time soon.

quote:

In terms of what's actually different between the two editions of Palworld, Xbox and Microsoft Store users are unfortunately missing quite a bit. Players on Reddit have been taking note of everything in the Steam version that's not in the others, and so far, that list includes the following:

Considerably faster crafting
3 Arrows/craft (currently, you get 1)
Using Technology Points to unlock Statues of Power (currently, you need Ancient Technology Points)
The ability to name your character
The ability to rename Pals
Sound effects that are missing from Xbox/MS Store version
Higher quality audio
An exit button to close the game

The deer that can chop wood that can be found near the starting area can do this as well and I've started using it that way too, it's nice and doesn't waste arrows.

Went off traveling across the lava lands at lvl23 and found just a ton of scorching eggs.
Got this one out of a huge scorching egg.



My travels ended when I came across a lvl50 Fakemon who proceeded to fricassee me in 2 hits.

I wasn't so sure the gun angle added anything to this game, but that was before I got on the back of a giant totoro-inspired plant panda and just went to town on a syndicate base with a grenade launcher.
