There are some interesting ideas in this video, but I don't think sandstorms should disable the compass. After all, it should be magnetic, or gyroscopic, or something more advanced in the TerraTech universe, which wouldn't get scrambled by a sandstorm. Unless the sand is magnetic? :P
extremely interesting, I love the desert's mechanic! it changes a lot from the precedent terratech and the idea to get lost is just perfect for new people who doesn't know about any of the mechanics of this game. Since there is sandstorm, I believe the wind produced energy will increase significantly if you settle there. Is it the same with solar pannels? And, maybe and why not adding thermal generators which produces energy on hot spots? from what seemed to be an empty desert at the begining becomes a space full of ideas!
Interesting ideas, very different direction from the original tt though... i would personally prefer seeing better optimization and core mechanics that are missing be introduced before getting another biome and more weather affects to make it more difficult. Being able to save your base(s), being able to NAME YOUR TECH YARDS! so easy to get lost when you see tech yards everywhere, balancing, new blocks for base functions (filters, switchs, etc), the current method for inputting resources into fabricators etc doesnt really make sense. Regardless i enjoy the new direction even though its a very different game from tt1. The swamp has wayyyyyy too much going on though, you get stuck on everything and when you finally get free from being stuck on a rock you get blown up by plants, and the fog is just horrendous, i would love to see and option to turn off fog and/or weather effects entirely, the game runs ok on my below spec laptop but fog in the swamp just makes my fps absolutely tank.... more options for lower spec users would be fantastic. I dont want to sound overly critical, but its only because i love this game so much and hopefully my input can have some sort of value in seeing this game improve, it still needs alot of work but i think its mostly in the right direction ❤ EDIT: also, when taking damage and you lose a cargo block, 9 out of 10 times the crate that drops your items from the lost cargo block spawns INSIDE my tech, and evertime i have to dismantle my tech for the crate to fall out, massively annoying.... hopefully this gets fixed
Sandstorms... fog effects kill my fps everywhere i go.... had to move my base near swamp it was so bad.... an option to turn off fog would be amazing, please add more lower settings! Also game crashes like crazy in frost biome... randomly though.... wasnt even the 30 techs that all spawned at once after loading back in from a crash, and whats with the enemy count there? Swamp i had to search hard for enemies, frost biome theyre everywhere.... EDIT: ive noticed even trees in the area drop my fps... cleared out all the trees near my base and my fps went from 10-30 to nearly 60.... my computer def isnt the greatest but better optimization and more graphics settings would be amazing (turn off shadows, fog, etc.) Better yet, release on console because im only playing on my pc for this game! ❤❤❤
I have an idea. What about a type of tech that just shows up in the world, and it's huge. Like massive. Bigger than any techs you'll ever see regularly. I think it could add a level surealism to the game. You'll definately feel small in a big WORLD.
If we have to transport fragments long distances, is there going to be changes to the flatbed part? I grinded to craft a few and make a build in game, and was sad to find that even when activated it didn't lock materials to it, and was effectively useless.
@@akyto81 lol. well im saying you can still use them in the desert. just when the sandstorm shows up you will be in trouble lol. but without it your weapons would work fine.
@@marcbennett9232 Just quickly clarifying something as we get closer to releasing the desert publicly: interference (where your nav systems, auto aim weapons etc won't work) is consistent within the desert, not just during sandstorms! Just to get you prepared in case you want to think about building some new Techs!

What are your system specs?
Question, Will it have an Oasis that's cooler than the rest of the desert?
When, if possible, a mining cannon will be added because it makes it impossible to advance further by completing cargo delivery missions?

The bosses? That's already a thing

I hope the flatbed gets some love but you could set up just a fragmentor and a generator real quick just for diamonds and carry it somewhere else.
The flatbed does need work, but I did get it to lock resources.
no auto weapons at desert ? time to rebuild my tech again !! lol !!
No auto weapons during a sandstorm. Not all the time.
@@marcbennett9232 my ALL weapons are automatic ones... Im lazy to aim enemies🤣🤣
@@akyto81 lol. well im saying you can still use them in the desert. just when the sandstorm shows up you will be in trouble lol. but without it your weapons would work fine.
@@marcbennett9232 i understand that... it will work without sandstorm... the point is... im lazy to target !!! LOL
