THIS IS A SERIES WE WISH TO SEE CONTINUED!!!
YES SIR!
KEEP IT UP LATH!
IN THE FUTUREE!!
THIS IS THE WAY!
ROCK AND STONE.... er... DRONES AND DEPTHS!!!!
AGREED!
“You collection of drones masquerading as a person” someone finally understands me
Yes, when we watch his intros with our many optical processors we feel seen and understood
This is infinitely funnier as a DID system.
us* c:
@@suborbitalprocess ah but unfortunately my rightmost optical core was damaged, so I am down to one core of processors. Nonetheless I am still very pleased to be recognized among the other hunanlike creatures
@@kingwolf468You definitively count among the Hun-an’-like entities.
The "Copter thing" should definitely be named "Bumblebee"
-Yellow and black
-Fat
-Built like a brick but still flies
-Flies with the grace and agility of a bumblebee when damaged
… shortened to “Bum-Bee” and pronounced like “Bambi”.
concur, had same idea
Bumblebee is wonderful, yes
Truly wonderful suggestion sire
Lmaooo yes. Bumblebee is such a great name.
FtD is VERY much a series we wish to see continued in the future!
In deed!
FTD is a series I would greatly enjoy continuing. Always a bright spot in my day.
My choice to watch the new Lathrix video instead of sleeping when it’s 2am seems completely rational to me. Thank you for the excuse to stay up even more ridiculously late. The videos are always a joy to watch
Hah, yup. I feel that.
Lol
Damn I never knew Lathrix content was so widely enjoyed
You can always sleep later lol! Drones don't need sleep anyways
Just buy the game so you can stay up till 9am designing a cruiser like me 💀
I know some of this is recorded before we see it but I feel like an interesting drone to do would be like an AWACS (Airborne Warning and Control System) style drone to supplement the others. It would just have a ton of detection systems and focus on feeding detection details to the other drones while sitting back out of the line of fire for in case other drones' detection systems get taken out.
Or also you can repurpose/add one of the little plasma copters to be a healer one instead. to support the drone fleet !
It could also make some smaller, limited lifetime drones that are very cheap and fly to the front lines to heal the other craft
From the Depths is a series i wish to see continued in the future!
Maybe you could add some drones that are purely defensive... Anti-missile lasers or something. That might allow you to have smoke on the main carrier. (no idea if that would mess with any of the drones)
so basically some drones with LAMS
He could put flak to deal with swarms, and repair tentacles for added support.
Why would it mess with drones?
@@user-dn5lr6lp4k I'm not familiar with how he's got everything programed, nor the precise effects of smoke. I figured it was possible that if the main craft was relaying detection info to the drones, the smoke might cause problems. (laser communication?) I don't play the game, so I don't really know how all the interactions work!
@@jasonwrathorn9281 smoke doesn't affect detection, and the same goes for wireless transmitters. The only exeption is the laser rangefinder, but it shouldn't matter much
From the depths is a series I need to see continued in the future
The new ship looks like Metaknight's ship, with the little armored face at the front. I am now expecting to see bat wings.
I would love it if you explained in a bit more detail, how the drones are build. Maybe show us how the armor and components look like on the inside? There is a tool to show cuts through the craft. I feel it is much more engaging, if you see something hit a vehicle and you know why that spot is dangerous for the build. Anyway, I really love your videos!
When you get finished with this, I think an orbital plasma death ray would be a fantastic idea, Maybe to keep with the death RAY idea, do a mix of lasers and plasma.
you know what, orbital cannon that shoots everything down: plasma, lasers, railguns, bombs, and,on particularly tanky and slow enemies, nukes. Now, the powre comes at a cost, so i would imagine it having 0 armor whatsoever, but this is orbital, nothing really targets it, right?
Lathrix; one who is tired of big missiles is tired of life. Don't worry about it.
(Being tired of EMP is a slightly different problem, but I don't think we're there yet.)
We the people want more huge missiles
@@jasonhu6052Huge missiles giving birth to swarms of medium missiles giving birth to groups of tiny missiles and bomblets that spread nanites over the enemy that eat them up … or failing nanites, HE and frag are acceptable, too. Also … mixed in a few decoy missiles with flares and radar targets so the anti-missile defences go for them instead of the payloads.
Too bad you cannot fit some of the original mini-flyers into a huge missile as payload … especially if they are suicide drones, maybe all spike nose…
this is a series we wish to see continued in the future
From the depths is a series we would love to see continued!!!
Thank you for uploading FTD for so long... been here since 2016!
Never clicked so fast on a notification (make sure to click the bell icon :p), let's see the series I wish to be continued in the future
I personally love the challenge "no manual firing" brings to the adventure mode, feels like something you should do every run to add more danger!
Also, I love the new osprey-like flyer, the black n' gold scheme looks amazing on it and tanky planes are a rarity which I really enjoy building myself
the fight at 22:50 with the music is so dramatic. Seeing the drones go in formation and everything. You always do such an amazing job of capturing footage from fights
From the Depths is a series i wish to see continued!
Y'know, I've been watching your builds for several years now, and in all that time I've never doubted your design and building esthetic. You really shouldn't drag yourself down like that- you have created some truly distinctive craft; some derpy, some froggy, all very good looking and functioning well in the final result. Me? I build blocks that do things. Sometimes I change it up and add spiky bits to the blocks. They look like chunks of 2x4 with nails sticking out. And a jet or propeller.
More, please.
FtD is DEFINETLY a series we wish to see continued in the future! Never quit it Lathrix, I've been watching your vids ever since the Neter Campaign 6 years ago, and trust me, THERE WILL NEVER BE TOO MANY MISSLES!
I would love to see a few small repair drones flying around from drone to drone to help keep them alive
Honestly, lets play content like this is so much easier for me to watch than hour long movies of full playthroughs, so I am in full support of you doing more lets play style content.
Suggestion for the main craft, you mentioned that not a lot of the drones have anti-air or anti-swarm. I was thinking either adding (very) small anti-air guns to the main craft, which does technically break one of the rules so that may not be feasible. Or adding a second smaller deck to the sides of the craft and building those 10k fighters you were thinking about earlier, specializing in air superiority.
So many goodies!
Multiple videos in one week, and they're all focused on smaller craft (my absolute favorites)
This is a series we definetly wish to see continued in the future. Absolutely love it!
This new drone looks like a rhino almost, also will you make a no cut channel for your building and other content in games like this?
Every time Lathrix says something to describe his viewers at the beginning of his videos I’m like: Yepp… THAT DESERVES A LIKE!!!
I like this episodic style. It feels like you get to see more of what goes on and some of the smaller things can get focus as well.
I know the youtube algorithm is punishing and frustrating, but i love these videos and hope you are able to keep making them for a very long time and that the algorithm will adapt
Of course, this is a series we wish to see continued!
I love this challenge mode because it spreads your resources out into smaller craft which means the battle is much more dynamic with how you take damage. Previously fights were either easy victories or crushing defeats, but now you can loose several helicopters and a sub and feels much more tense while still winning.
Also I just love seeing all sorts of little designs, maybe next time a small melee drone, maybe with a nuke?
Ngl kinda love that the copter thing (which as others have said, should be the bumblebee!) feels a bit like a distraction carnifex
Like its so big and spooky that it tends to just get targeted and everything else is fine to just attack freely, and if they ignore it to attack the other stuff, it wrecks face on its own!!
I am three drones in a trenchcoat and I loved this video! Great job creator!
Also 27:10 you can tell them to fire at the center of mass using an aimpoint selection AI card lol
3:35 Lathrix, currently ducts do not work prop blades, they are way worse because of it
I was under the impression they partially worked for them, giving reduced clearance but not the full block level? I can very easily be mistaken here though..
@@Lathland Apologies, you're right. Just tested it. They must have recently changed it.
Looks like each duct flatly reduces efficiency by 25%, so double duct takes twice as much power to keep it in the air.
If there was ever a series I wished to see continued, this would be that series.
For what it's worth, I really like the Lathrixian building style. It's chunky and industrial but still sleek and elegant in it's own way. I think it fits really well into how Lathrix leans into the Warhammer Chaos stuff sometimes. I hope he refines his current style to be even more striking and distinctive instead of making it more like the campaign designs.
This is a series we wish to see continued in the future.
for the algorithm
and to see the series continued
Lathrix, the FTD content creator that say as any artist, full on believing that their creations aren't great, while us plebs looks on in awe of their beauty and functionality.
Every time comparing themselves to those who have built creations in a cozy office environment with colleagues to bounce ideas off, while Lathrix does it with a strict time schedule, under attack and with limited resources...
Not only do they look good, but they're at a 1/10 the cost of the dev designs while they take and give punches well over their resource cost should indicate...
You do great designs Lathrix, there's absolutely no ifs or buts about it!
Please continue to make this series Lathrix, looking forwards to seeing the next episode, please take care and stay safe!
As a drone who indeed masquerades as a person, From The Depths is a series I would like to see continued in the future.
From the Depths + Lathrix = perfection
Can you do a series where you use OLD builds it be interesting to see if your old builds can still dominate after years of being unused
I like the drone challenge. It makes each fight feel like a team battle against some insurmountable boss.
I love seeing more Scarlet dawn craft in adventure mode, they have some really cool designs that you never see because of how long it takes to get to them in the standard campaign
As one might expect, this is a series we drone swarms pretending to be people wish to see continued in the future.
for the algorithm
Yes, yes from the depths is a series we wish to see continued.
Thanks for making this an episodic series, I personally really prefer this style of vid. Even as a long-time viewer, I only watch these episodic vids, (it's not just the algorithm), mainly because I can't find the time to watch the full playthroughs. Again, thanks for making shorter form content, and this is a series I wish to see continued.
0:00 That is falsehood, we are a singular human entity, not a collection of drones
I am not a human, I am a droning collection…
I prefer episodic playthrough
I do too. Its like chapters in a book, except a longer form of it.
It makes me so happy to see you doing more FtD! It’s a series I absolutely wish to see continued in the future!
Lathrix always talks about how "weird" his designs are. Yet, I find them all to be just great.
Would love to see you name the copter-thing the "Unsterblich" or immortal in german cause it gives the vibes of being some german WW2 flying tank whilst also living through being thrown around, slapped, tossed, yeeted, smashed, stabbed, bludgeoned, and so much more!
I love the chubby little Sea Vixen planes you made! but I think torps might be better on them as a secondary anti sub / boat option.
Also I'm loving the new series and Definitively wish to see it continue.
FTD is a series I would love to see continued in the future!
This series with the bots makes it so you can watch more combat. Its so cool
This is 100% a series i wish to see continued!!
Also i think a doomcram bomber drone or maybe some weird little repair support drone could be really cool
Would be fun to see you redo the old Nuke design from a couple years ago! See how its changed with all the updates ^_^
Also!!! Would be kinda awesome and silly to at the end of this series, upload like a ten hour video thats just all the parts slapped together to go in the full playthrough movie playlist lmao
Latharix: "My designs always look so bizarre and/or bad." Builds designs with actual shape, form, and function that look creative and fitting.
Other FTD youtubers: Builds box with guns on it, suspended by jets/thrusters. "This is my godly design, it's a flying fortress or something." Literally just a box.
THIS IS A SERIES WE WISH TO SEE CONTINUED!!!
also a medic drone with some healing would be kinda cool ngl. Unless thats too op? Pure little tanky meatball of health. Sounds exactly like something youd make! Maybe with spikes added
Seeing huge missles is something I desire to see, not sure who would get sick of the satisfaction of big BOOM but I certainly can't get enough.
This is my favorite episode yet! I love it when you run into awesome and scary things. I love when you're impressed by things!
favorite series in a while, more episodic playthroughs please!!
Your ftd videos are always an instant watch from me Lathrix! Been watching you for almost 10 years now 😅 Take care of yourself, and know you are appreciated!❤
THIS IS A SERIES WE WISH TO SEE CONTINUED!
LOVE IT
It feels way more fullfilling this way than i ever imagined
This series actually has me so excited every time i see a new episode :)
I feel like so long as you're enjoying the series it is something we would all enjoy watching.
I just hit 100 hours after a week or so. Have watched you for YEARS and was too nervous to play.
God please never stop playing this game (as long as it makes you as happy as it makes me)
The drone uprising is a revolution I'd love to see continued in the Future
I love how the enemy at 8:45 just goes right into the floating missiles sitting there 😂
FtD is VERY much a series we wish to see continued in the future! Thanks for all thje vids.
I definitely prefer the full playthroughs, but this has still been a load of fun! And from the depths is certainly a series I wish to see continued in the future!
I would love to see some drone surface vessels as well! Thanks for keeping up F2D content!
I'm glad you're happy with your designs. I love them. They've always got such a futuristic, low-sensor-profile vibe to them.
I'm gonna interrupt my viewing to say that I agree with you Lathrix. The full playthrough style does generally seem to fot a bit better, but it's also VERY nice to see these builds coming together. Thanks for uploading more awesome content!
This episodic approach has been awesome. Get to see more of the inbetween content that normally would get cut.
THIS IS A SERIES WE WISH TO SEE CONTINUED!!!!!!!!
12:31 the fire rate of the HEAT cannon almost perfectly synced up with the beat of the music
THIS IS A SERIES WE WISH TO SEE CONTINUED.
Love these vids and designs, keep up the good work lathrix. Also, suggestion: a from the depths sea adventure run using only energy weapons (lasers, particle cannons, and plasma weapons)
damn, this is the type of game that you wouldn't expect to see alive after first seeing it 5 years ago
I feel like a really thin craft would make plasma shine, armored front with a long body to store a ton of charges
Now this is a series I wish to see continued!
I am ALWAYS happy to see a From the Depths series continued. :)
I love your FTD series so far but I’d love to see the craft different colors like the earlier planes
From the Depths is a series I wish to see continued in the future
This is a series we all wish to see continued!
"its like its got googly eyes" is the best way of describing any of laths funniest builds
20:09
The albatross: "be strong Clarence. Be strong for mother"
This is most certainly a series I would adore to be continued
From The Depths is a series I wish to see continued in the future!
A series we wish to see continued indeed.
Interaction, comments, and likes. The life blood of content creators. Hope you still enjoy this job lathrix. I know I appreciate your work.
The drone series here is proving really fun imo. I loved watching the design and building process from your old campaign series and this has some of that same vibe.
I will watch this series as long as it is posted!
I love it, highlight of my day!
I absolutely love your quaint jets! So cute!
Also, I love your bizarre creations, I think it looks cool
The Ironing Board analogy is apt, though. Your carrier is like an Ironing Board and its little Clothing Iron buddies traveling the land cleansing it of all "Wrinkles".
