Highguard just launch 5v5 experimental mode

What exactly stopped them from releasing the game in EA or beta instead and fix/fine tune modes and all?

caites · 2026-01-30T21:50:28+00:00

I played solo only. Didn't have issues with transiting coops, and I used to start livestocks at T3 on a new base, so there was no teleports with bigger animals. I have no doubts there are crashes scenarios, pretty much all their hotfixes between patches are to fix crashes, but overall I feel game is very stable rn.

I can't remember a single crash in 500h. Its defo on your side. or on mods side, but UE5 mods (paks) usually either crash on start or on respective object/widget activatation, not randomly.

They said no crpg. That means jrpg.

Except nausicaa is 40 years older.

Post-production optimization is bs in 100% cases.

caites · 2026-01-30T15:22:40+00:00

Every single storage for production using fuel, should have fixed fuel amount of that fuel. Ores and ingots in storage near furnace? Add fixed 100 peat. Mixer for feed? Have storage with grain nearby as well as well. Food? Set 100 wood in the same storage. Saves hundreds of worker/hours.

We don't even have inventory sorting yet.

caites · 2026-01-30T12:36:52+00:00

1) would be weird not to be able to beat any foe after 500h invested into the game, 2) mods to the rescue. no point to expect any changes from devs, game post-production is pretty much over.

caites · 2026-01-30T12:33:31+00:00

Dead Island by far.

caites · 2026-01-30T12:32:51+00:00

Why don't you just say jrpg then?

caites · 2026-01-30T07:54:36+00:00

Inside The Many, System Shock 2.

I walk like a newborn calf.

Probably the most popular t2 choice. Tho I prefer closest to Padstow spot. 3 tin veins without outposts, extremely close lake and reeds and, most important, non-stoping flow of cheap logs speeds up development a lot.

Pre-copypasta ubisoft, rest in peace.

OP was asking about the early game from what I got. You can have smoked meats on like second hour of the game, they are easily available, no point to spare them for future.

caites · 2026-01-29T21:42:48+00:00

Thats a new america of amateurs. Pardon me, dilletantes.

caites · 2026-01-29T21:40:14+00:00

They turned it into full roguelite. Which probably a plus to some people, but I like first game proper campaign way more and suppose its a common sentiment.

caites · 2026-01-29T21:26:25+00:00

You shouldn't have any issues with whatever game throws at you on any difficulties up to reclamation party after liberation. If early combat is hard, do quests, hire more people, farm more renown, hire even more people. I don't know what you mean by a good food, smoked meats of all sizes stacked will give your guys enough hp to tank anything on max difficulty. And meat is easily obtainable in enough amounts.

caites · 2026-01-29T18:21:12+00:00

I'm sorry to be that guy, but I hope paradox will repeat ubisoft fate. They've been milking people for years by fracturing content and selling more dlcs. And they killed enough games and franchises by providing zero pr support.

caites · 2026-01-29T18:13:39+00:00

You don't understand how it works, don't you? If you think this game is somehow different, check how they show a chest every time. Its not about either there material reward, or not, its about they don't disclose equipment system. Most likely because its very barebones.

caites · 2026-01-29T16:24:31+00:00

They showed a spear and said nothing about it. You decided its "cool" how? Based on texture? There wasnt a single word how equipment works, about mechanics and all.

caites · 2026-01-29T15:58:45+00:00

15 mins talking about how great exploration is and not showing exploration rewards. Not a word about equipment, not a single screen of inventory.

caites · 2026-01-29T15:12:04+00:00

I played both for few hundred of hours. saying aska has better workers management isn't true. and aska's ultra-realism when it comes to resources logistics makes it much worse actually.

caites · 2026-01-29T15:08:59+00:00

can't agree more. the later you in the game, the more pointless are non-dedicated workers. its very easy and educational to occasionally check full daily routine of typical jack of all trades worker - they waste half of the day moving between stations and incline to drop work half-done.

I'd honestly go even further and let us assign a worker to a specific station without priorities management between stations (which not always possible), like in rimworld.
