I cant wait to see what everyone will create!
So please DO come and share!
gird better, light better,
the best thing is we have more AA options,
we never need to see garbage white lines
seeing the Starbase ship hurts. I played so much of it when it when it came out and now its just a good representation of space, empty.
Im sorry dude! I just cant let it go!
They're still working on starbase, so it's not dead yet.
@@cyborgbadger1015 you have to wait 2 years to go back to Starbase
@@cyborgbadger1015 bro.. its dead. they made a post last year about a new revamped development and upcoming updates and have done nothing since. as much as id love to see it back, its gone.
@@cyborgbadger1015they stopped working on it again, mentioned in the discord. It’s dead :/
Keneto seeing the starbase ship on here gives me the impression you still have feelings for starbase.
It's like a relationship that didn't work out, you walked away from it but your not divorced from it yet because you think there's a possibility you could fall back in love with it if it gets better.
I'm actually one of very few pkayers that are still active on it, the ship builder is still the best function and better than any other space game out there.
more like a widower waiting in vain atop a lighthouse for the return of his love lost at sea...
i will always have feelings, it was and still is the best ship builder out there, it just had barely any more gameplay than this tech demo for SE2 :(
is that the starter ship from starbase?
It looks like it for sure, but it definitely is made with SE2 blocks, look more closely at the function pieces
why yes it is!
@@KenetorTV Has Starbase been entirely abandoned by the developer at this point?
@SK-62 no but they are on another pause again
Starbase is an building experience you really should experience at least once.
goddam that thumbnail jump scared me, for a second i thought star base might have a pulse
Hehehe i gotta keep it alive somehow, even if it lives in a different skin
Damn it Kenetor I'm an Engineer, not a doctor!
To be honest I only played SE 1 solo and so got to a point where it felt weird building for threats that weren't coming. I'm looking forward to the fact they have said they will be adding improved Ai and story so there will feel like more purpose to what I build.
hey hey thanks for watching all the way through!
Yeah the base game without mods did not have enough threat to overcome, and it was a big push recently to improve AI logic in SE1, all of that will get pushed further in SE2 i think, plus an eventual campaign is really something to look forward to!
I like that if you're a player of space engineers, you know what you're getting into. It's so true
haha isnt it just!
Lets go!
SE1 is a prototype a benchmark and playground
SE2 is the refined Product with features polished(soon)
COMPLETELY agree with the mirror mode, i was getting genuinely frustrated over that. Seriously it feels like it turns off if you ao much as breath on it
after a good while the facepalms turned into many bouts of me swearing nearly loud enough to wake my kid up lol
Darnit Kenetor, i am an engineer not a doctor...
Build mode looks like fully expanded Trailmakers build mode and Trailmakers is really easy in building.
I hope it all goes well from here and this game will be not starbased...
hey hey thanks for watching it all! Personally ive seen hints of both Starbase and Dual Universe added here, but it needs a bit of work to polish it off when it comes to building.
and oh yes hope it doesnt get starbased for sure, this will need rapid progress to really prove its worth, if they sit on it for months then people are gonna know something is up!
@@KenetorTV damn... starbase and DU... both games with amazing building and nothing else... i really liked the volumetric stuff you could do in DU, made some amazing stuff there before everyone realized there was nothing to do...
Darnit Kenetor, i am an engineer not a doctor. Game is looking cool
I cant wait to try more stuff!
if keen sets a timeframe they will be setting a reason to rush the product... and this is the very reason we wont see dates till said slice is ready... it needs to stay this way... im glad they are not making a choice that will later come back to bite them because they got behind schedule
it doesnt need a hard timeframe, just a goal, be open and honest, were gamers we get it, things come up, but then they can talk about that too in devlogs ya know.
No one is asking them to rush or crunch the development, i wanna see it done right, but i also think the devs should respect the players time a little more and knowing more ROUGHLY how many updates we should expect to see would help with player trust too.
Damn it Kenetor, I'm an engineer, not a doctor. Honestly, I think any big multiplayer game should start by creating a good offline/local co-op version of their game. Starbase should have done what SE do and then built off of that modularily. Now with that said, they always were competing with SE in the same niche, so it wouldn't have done them any huge favours. I just feel sad about Starbase whenever I see SE, but can't deny that SE got it right.
heeeey thanks for watching all the way! while i dont think co-op would make a difference in this vertical slice, i will say as a multiplayer game it should be multiplayer first, support for multiplayer affects everything and core to the SE experience!
SB being an MMO though, any offline mode would have been the wrong choice IMHO, but SB's failures were in its content plan and management :(
Loving the Laborer dude, that takes me back to some good times!
Damm it Kenetor I'm an engineer not a doctor! I loved seeing the Laborer brought over to SE 2 from Starbase. Brings back memories. I'm looking forward to seeing how SE 2 progresses
hey hey thanks for making it all the way through!
Lets hope the wait isnt long to see some real progress!
Ah, I remember your channel back during the Captain Jack discord days, when you were just starting out. Glad to see you're making it past 10k subscribers and still growing!
This Space Engineers 2 Launch is more of a paid beta test for additional growth, much like the original Space Engineers. Its not complete.......and was never meant to be as they continue to add more and more SE1 features into SE2, and I was stunned on how smooth it runs, its as smooth as silk in how it runs and the graphical details are far superior in every regard, and I have no doubt they're gonna progress the game farther and father as time passes.
PS, nice touch, in building a recreation of Starbase's starter ship ;)
thanks dude!
It is literally an alpha launch.... wtf paid beta test?
Marek told time and time again this is currently for the people who want to be a part of development and if you want more from the game wait until release
There's a game called Archean that you might find interesting as well. It looks promising.
Regarding space engineers - so far my only complaint is no ability to scroll blocks back. For example if you need a small triangle but you're 1 piece past it you need to scroll through every single block that is between it and the block you have in the "forward" direction. I hope they make block groups scrollable with the mouse wheel both ways to solve this issue and maybe have some toggle to switch betweend desired block sizes.
It's not intuitive, but you can scroll back! If you hold shift and hit r, you'll go back one block
@@williamj.2695 Oh man thank you for that information!
Never heard of Archean, but I'm definitely going to check it out.
its pretty much space engineers 1 all over again, gotta wait til its crispy
extra char grilled crispy!
They washed the glass in the cockpit! After all these years
its got that new car look!
Darnit Kenetor, i am an engineer not a doctor.
I was waiting the launch since they start teasing it, can't wait to get next slice available.
I already want more! I have watched Jan (engine lead) on twitter with great interest for a 3 years now as he has teased all the engine upgrades!
Damn it Kenetor I am an engineer not a doctor, as more of a survival player I am sticking with other stuff for now but will put this in the library for later. Would love to see what they do to improve scanning for ore (Big problem in SE1), mining, and adding a real salvage option.
Thanks for watching all the way!
yes! I totally want to see expanded gameplay that goes beyond SE1, however i dont think we will see it any time soon :(
Thankfully we do indeed have other games to enjoy in the mean time!
Dammit Kenetor! im an engineer, not a doctor. great video.
much love for watching it all! massively helps out! thanks and happy you liked it!
Dammit, Kenetor! I'm an engineer, not a doctor! I took a few breaks during SE1's development, due to shoddy hardware and life in-general. Each time I came back I got lost in the number of new mechanics and blocks added since I'd left. I'm looking forward to relearning the systems from the very basics slowly and steadily. Maybe this time my new rig will hold up! ';P
Too bad about Starbase. Though, I had a feeling it was going to be a bit too ambitious.
aye Starbase was still a massively fun experience and still is the best ship builder in my opinion!
It will be interesting to see if SE2 can avoid the pitfalls of other games as well as its predecessor, it could turn out fantastic!
Appreciate the starbase reference in the thumbnail
I had to do it for my OG subscribers but it turned out to be a pretty good test!
Great overview, thank you!
My pleasure good sir!
Thank you for the update. Timeframe is key. Despite your warning there are going to be a ton of negative reviews which are going to snowball.
Releasing with pretty much NO content and charging money is going to make people wonder about Keen's financials. Most of us remember Starbase which shipped with infinitely more content than this and took years to make any progress.
the annoying thing is i know there is more info on this out there but its only the preferred creators that got flown out to keen HQ that know about it. Keen need to be more upfront and they can still get ahead of this too and id like to see a bit more open communication from them.
cant wait for rotors to be added
Too bad they didn't implement an Enshrouded-like system where you can place down larger walls, but then you can remove small details from it, because all larger objects are just filling out a finer grid with less granularity. And that system in Enshrouded seems to scale really well, since literally everything in the game world is using it.
im low key hoping when they done getting enshrouded in to 1.0 next summer the move on to a voxel space game
damn... i saw the thumbnail and got excited... RIP Starbase
it will never die if we bring it with us wherever we go!
Special thanks for the Laborer 😍
had to be done for old times sake! But it really did prove to be a good choice to test the new grid size!
I see you love Starbase. That is the starter ship from it.
well I did cover it weekly for nearly 3 years lol I am "the starbase guy" so you would hope i loved it haha
"A good example of this is Enshrouded" *me playing enshrouded wile watching this vid:* Kenetor get out of my pc!
Enshrouded voxel system is goated!
I was watching the videos first upload when it got yoinked away
apologies for the technical issues!
thanks for coming back!
The steam reviews were already so infuriating. They got exactly what Keeen said they would get and people still leave negative reviews complaining about things keen already talked about before.
I understand your frustration. Most people cannot handle actual alpha development. They do not know what it is, and when you attempt to explain it to them, they scoff and deviate with nonsequiturs. It happens a lot with other games like Ashes of Creation as well. They really need to basically say on the Steam page: "If you do not know or understand what alpha development is, DO NOT buy this product!"
children will be children.. its clear who the adults in the reviews are
@@Billy-bc8pk 2 decades alpha development.
@ Ashes hasn't been in development for two decades, and Space Engineers 2 will likely be in alpha for around five to ten years depending on what they want to do with it. Either way, if people are impatient there are plenty of Call of Duty clones out there for a quick fix.
I played a little. Biggest thing that threw me off was rotating blocks now require you holding CTRL and used WASD.
Vents, convers, hinges, rotors, batteries, not here. Yet.
I get it's alpha. My disappointment is my fault.
The thing I did have fun with was using the laser gun and shootout out every light in the station. I wish the NPCs were here.
I've never wanted to yell "Exterminate" more in my life.
once you get used toit the WASD is better, but i kinda wish maybe a build mode was a toggle that locks you in place and lets you use the keys normally rather than holding control all the time
I'll wait till the MP is added
LOL that's the Labourer ship, the starter ship you get in Starbase. Also a sandbox space build game.
Going to wait on this one. I supported Keen enough for now with every DLC bought for SE1. When this goes on a deep discount I may buy it. Hoping they put more game play into this game with more NPCs, economy, Events, Reasons to go to other planets ect. SE1 just seemed so empty until the last update and still feels that way. I mostly play in Solo and just feels like build a quick base, fly into space, make a jump drive, jump somewhere, End of game nothing else to do
a very reasonable approach for sure, SE2 is highly under cooked right now
Keen 'Being very upfront about it' doesnt make it any less scummy. A ship builder for $30? Yes, its a vast improvement on SE1's ship builder, but thats still all it is. Its not like they built this from the ground up.
Anyone that thinks we are getting meaningful gameplay within the next year is either completely deluded, or simply didnt follow the development of SE1. Instead, we can all look forward to another 8-10 years of drip-fed cosmetic packs, teased months in advance. Assuming of course this isnt abandoned like Medieval Engineers.
absolutely right, but the level of scummyness or value of the game will massively vary from person to person, everyone has to make their own call on this.
If keen hadnt let me have creator access then I absolutely would not buy this yet as a consumer and even after player SE1.
is this it haha. I'm completely new to the SE GAMES. However, I am looking forward to the game and did get it. much like early access satisfactory, back in the day. It is a game that will grow on me... (I HOPE)
Haha fair play, it was just a suggestion not a rule. Its a big jump at that price not having played it before. Regardless i hope you have fun and make some really cool shit!
@@KenetorTV me too. I look forward to seeing how this game grows as the first did.
Currently SE2 is not a game it is simply a building simulator to get you use to building and allow people a head-start in designing ships
Anyone that things SE2 is a game is gonna endup spamming the game with negative reviews
yup! hence my front loaded warning in the vid, i talked to so many people who still didnt realise meer days before launch how small this is
hopefully they fix rovers falling through the planets
they gotta HAVE planets first lol
in all seriousness though, the physics was massively upgraded, we should see alot less of that!
Yes Kenator, I'd like to be engineer, not a doctor. Prob gonna let this one bake for awhile. Eager to see what vids you upload tho. We are so back
While I bought it I don’t think I will play until pistons rotors and doors are added. As well as survival, hmm well maybe not until planets and water are implemented. I guess I’ll just play SE1 until then.
i wouldnt mind so much if we had enough for a survival ship, i can wait for rotors and pistons for a little bit but it feels pointless to build anything with so few blocks
All building and no game sounds a lot like starbase lol. Lets hope it gets better with time
Building games are valid.
this is a tad bit less but there is a reason no one plays SB now lol
Keen better deliver on that content!
Honestly they released waaaaaaay too early i wasnt expecting survival but for blocks to just not work is absolutely ridiculous.
they made it very clear what to expect in the first alpha build and that it is alpha it is completely up to the people if they want to play the current version of SE2 or that they wait
dont act spoiled it was clearly stated what we would get... not to mention se1 alpha was worse state than this... why complain when we got what they stated they would give us.... dont act spoiled
I was similarly surprised at their decision to release, even as early access. It was clear to me as a developer that, impressive though some of the showcase videos before the release plan announcement were, this is a beta engine (vrage3) and a very early alpha game (SE2). As such I very much expected that a lot of things won't be working yet or will be buggy. I can see a lot of potential and things due to come later, but for now I'm holding off buying it until much more of it is functional and I can actually start making things that will be functional in survival (even if survival isn't yet there) or perhaps until survival is there and not too buggy.
Damnit Kenetor, i'm a Doctor, not an Engineer! ...wait.
I want to buy the game and start making my Space Semi-Trucks and boats.
But with the fact that i think i want to wait for some more functionality, and the release of both Civ7 and Monster Hunter Wilds in Febuary, i think it might be better for me to wait for Vertical Slice 2 unless development of this game proves to be ligntning quick.
I understood that the alpha would be sparse on content but the biggest selling point for me with the new game was an upgraded engine. I was tired of seeing "PCU limit reached" or the game lagging horribly and not being able to deal with complex environments/situations (especially in the modding scene) which is why I had preordered space engineers 2.
Safe to say though when I rammed the big red ship into the big blue ship at 300m/s as a test and seeing the blue ship bounce off with minimal damage with a warning about the PCU limit being overloaded, I was very disappointed. I'm hoping this is just an alpha safety measure for during testing and not indicative of the performance we'll be getting in the finished product.
that was the game telling you the amount of pcu you are getting back LMAO
What are the plans for in-game programming?
unknown sadly, we dont even have programable blocks
"Is this it" is probably the best description for KeenSWH in a variety of contexts lol
Oh snap! Marek gonna need some burn cream for that one 🤣 🔥
I played for about 30 minutes. The half of that time was spent me with destroying stuffs. Why are we like this haha
because inside everyone is a destructive monkey brain that wants to see the world burn! plus its hella fun!
@KenetorTV 😂😂
Crashing into things at 300 m/s hasn't been causing damage for me 🤔
this happened to me once or twice too, when you suddenly bounce off instead of crushing the ships together leaves you confused lol
@@KenetorTV Especially when it's a GLASS window! Pretty strong stuff, ay!
Played some SE1 but always felt like it's missing a real purpose. Like a real goal to work towards. Was a nice little sandbox to play arround in, but nothing else. Really hope they add a "real" survival mode with actual goals. But for now SE2 seems like a tech demo to me. So many parts still missing or unfinished. I'll keep an eye on it but I won't buy it (yet)
its gonna take quite a bit of time i fear but SE2 will be different in this regard, better AI and a campaign will be clutch!
Something off here… looks… familiar
😅
im at 3.5k hrs in the first one.
im an engineer dammit haha
Yep. Small and large grid is now one grid. Got it. I don't like this stutter-start.
😮😅 Looks like the star Bass game Is startership 😂😂😂
The problem is ..... SE1 is over a decade old and it is still..... "is this all?" ....... you cant do anything . there is nothing to do
If SE 2 wants me to buy DLCs when not even the content of the first game is in, I will leave. They murdered medieval engineers, so the trust is low.
if i see DLC this time round before EA is done, im gonna call them out for sure!
MHO theres nothing at the moment. You cant even program buttons for ships. NOTHING! Stay away peeps. Maybe within 1-2 years there might be something
the whole doors thing shocked me, i mean i get buttons maybe but doors... really... thats really stupid and shows this is a little too early/borderline red flag territory
honestly turning mirror mode off during paint is imo a downgrade from se1
100% its really fraking annoying!
@@KenetorTV its one of those things where like yeah I guess it could be a bug but it doesnt feel like one and its helpful more than anything?
SE1 was pointless. I tried playing it but there was nothing to do except build things. I'd refund it if I could. Minecraft was a story-rich game compared to it.
its not a game yet, tech demo for 30$ no thanks.
why are you even here?
It looks the same as SE1 visuals
It's Alpha. Meaning it's not a GAME yet... Bro... Really?
yeah, you know what makes a game... a gameplay loop, you know what this tech demo doesnt have, any gameplay loops.
i have played so many alpha versions of games, this is the barest experience ive ever had in a game, and its not just an alpha, its a paid alpha.
So NO its NOT a game just yet.
Have a great day!
@KenetorTV who asked all of that?? No one.
@KenetorTV learn what Alpha means in dev. No one cares about a TH-cam's opinions of an Alpha version. Learn what Alpha and beta means bub
@@BlueBytes-i7x says the snowflake here bitching about because of a youtubers opinion, i know what alpha and beta versions mean, and this is a tech demo.
Next time if you dont want youtubers opinions, maybe dont come to youtube and look at videos containing them and then complain you got them
