I leant the hard way, try fixing your ship on the moon with gravity it's broken. And why you want to go through the gate anyway all you find is heaps of toss bags waiting for you on the other end ready to grief you or try to steal your ship.
Building the Capital ships manually? I hope we can get a "Capital ship designer" etc. For that. I love the current ship designer because you have handy tools at your disposal and thus making big and detailed ships is convenient enough. I want to make/design Capital ships, but if you have to build them "Live" without any testing or troubleshooting. It just feels kinda wasted. I may have just gotten scared by this video, but I hope that the Capital ships won't be built the same way that the stations are. Other wise can't wait.
As mentioned, they are actual stations that can jump from point to point and also cost quite a lot in rare materials so you are not expected to just print them on the go ;)
If you added at least 1 other tint of hue to the asteroid belts they'd look a heck of a lot more visually interesting than just 1 flat identical hue. For example, dark blue/purple + light blue for Eos belt, etc. Just something, anything, not just one flat color everywhere.
Damn we should dig a big chasm into the ground and suspend a moonbase in between that canyon. That would be hella defensible too when station raiding eventually becomes a thing.
@@noah3628 uuum....I think he meant a flight stick....but also having more keybinds then buttons on a controller has NEVER stopped devs from doing controller support in the past
Having played the game since EA launch, we don't need moon content nearly as much as we need gameplay loops. I'm only still playing because of the SSC and that isn't going to last.
@@Psychobob Haha the pop has dropped a bit but it's not because the game is bad, in most cases just because it's lacking features. These should bring a few players back ;)
@@jh5kl 2000 on a single server doesn't mean anything when you don't run into anyone. Getting everyone on a single shard isn't new tech. There our loads of MMOs that could have done it but there was no point because the game world was too small so they just filled it as much as it needed to be filled. Starbase has a massive game world and even at double the amount of peak players the game world would still feel empty. I see more players on SC with 50 per server. Another year and everyone will be on a single shard there. We're talking millions of players. It has PvE as well to fill in the times you don't see anyone. Single shards aren't impressive. Having them fill the world enough to be interesting is. Starbase needs gameplay loops, not more versions of mining if they want people to come back.
@@HaloDude557 I would argue that what they've already managed to get working is incredibly impressive tech. If they can't get a voxel terrain system working, there's probably a good reason for it. (E.g. Imagine storing 3D terrain data persistentantly for a multiplayer universe of this size.) It is a valid criticism however, and I do wish it was possible otherwise.
My main question is: is your base a safe location or can it be raided? I’m on the fence on this game because I don’t like the idea of designing a ship, grinding for the materials and then it being blown up/stolen.
yes your base is a safezone, it can t be simply raided overnight by a griefer with a pickaxe, and the initial safezone is already quite big and it encompasses several spacestations. capital ships that are not military are also a safezone
I just want company stations or bases. I don't want to build my base, I want to join my company and do stuff that is meaningful for the group as a whole.

Is there plans for a wipe? i'd stopped playing due to the poor gameplay loop and any PVP being broken due to armour issues once things are stable are we to expect a wipe to ensure the game remains fair? or is this taking the EVE aproach?
Hell No and thankfully Lauri already said they're not doing wipes except some emergency level deal. Even then they said it would only focus on that emergency area and not a full game wipe.
It's not a building game. The Building in the game isn't even game-like. It's just Computer-Aided-Design software. I paid for a videogame not a shitty version of Blender.
@@wyldeer game is not going to change what it is for what you personally want, looking at a station building video and saying its not a building game is crazy talk
Please.... Saving current state of ship as updated bp. Please, asap.. Just give as a hotfix with a Ctrl+S hotkey or something. This is critically needed before any other feature. I dont wanna permanently lose 9 hours of post-SSC tweaking / design work if i lose my ship.
Didnt empyrion or space engineers think of this first? just saying if this is a pvp space game why does space feel like its a swimming pool with a lot of floatees in it? Sorry frozenbyte but you do have a history of failing at current game development #trine series.

the surface mining is supposed to be instanced, but we'll see what happens
building silos into the moon could be dope tho
10/10

I'll probably buy the game once you add joystick support. I need them in a space game x)
There are far too many keybinds for the game to be viable on a controller, and it's never coming to console

they dont intend to add hotas support so forget about it. the controls are so spongy in game that it would be horrible anyway.

Would be nice if something come like rover for moon mining

Im off to place a moon plot down b4 the rabble come...... may take me 10 years to get the tech....... but ill die tryin :)
wait... we'll be able to build capitol ships?!
check their video on capital ships
th-cam.com/video/QasP0r_bxJU/w-d-xo.html :D
Yes
Im pretty sure Alyson Hannigan is voicing over this videos.
will we be able to get planatoid's as well? (larger then regular asteroids but way smaller then even a moon)
They already exist. Search up 'Titan Asteroids'. You need to go decently far out to start seeing them though.
Yesh all of the yesh I can finally become the tunnel mole but on a galactic scale
Can't dig horizontally unfortunately. Can dig straight down pretty stupidly far though, heard it's possible to get ~20km down.

if youre using the metal beams to make your base, I think they need to be welded. If not welded they disappear.
@@RonaldMcDonald6969 thank you i appreciate the response. I have almost no time in easy build mode so im still learning that.
Класс!
Wonder if the bolting tool will be fixed for bench's this time.
You literally changed nothing, no new info...
So the actual digging of the surface does not allow you to dig under things, only create pits straight down? That's really disappointing guys.
Until you add a non pvp mode or pvp op-out switch, this game will stay limited.
you my friend belong in single player games
Will we be able to capture moon bases like stations using our capital ships or will they just be uncapturable?
so if I understand well, we will be able to mine all the moons not just Elysium
When does this update come out?
Who has the information which other moons have their asteroid rings and what resources are there?
none of the other moon's have asteroids except the one we can warp to

Hell No and thankfully Lauri already said they're not doing wipes except some emergency level deal. Even then they said it would only focus on that emergency area and not a full game wipe.
underground bases?
so no Star Bases?
I can't wait for the Surface of the moon to be swamped with playermade safezones. Great idea to find ways to prevent PvP in a game that has zero PvE.
because a building game without safezones is sooooooooooooo smart. also you re not making any point, sieges will be a thing
