Wowie!! People seem to watch your Once Human videos! You might have a potential to reach more people with a full-fledged edited video with a clickbaity thumbnail. Some kind of controversial or like a big topic about the game :O
What you don’t have is enough to transfer everything you worked for/on from the previous “stage” (for lack of a better word). All that grinding thrown out the window. You start new and you can’t even use the blueprint for your house/base again because you can’t afford to import everything to rebuild it. Nevermind the fact that you immediately start grinding on a new base because of it. So, what good did those blueprints have? None. Your energy links that you had? Converted and you don’t even have access to those fully! Grind, grind, grind, to “achieve” what? Nothing. You won’t get it all back and it’s gone. The mentality of you “keep your stuff” is nothing but a mirage.
Yeah, that's kinda what I was talking about in my previous videos. There's no real goal to the grind beyond mods and calibrations for your weapons or high leveled deviants which you can transfer.
gold / silver. transfer the items u need. i did the saw/drill and the fish deals for mining. some living armor and beer. its week 2 and most r done. just waiting on the end..... it is some of a grind..... but having the items cuts the grind in half.
@@JesseConsopolus, That’s not the point. How about you work for your employer and at the end of your work week, your employer says, we’re going to take back what we paid you and give it to you as we see fit. How about every store you ever bought something from takes it back and gives that too back to you as they see fit. So now you’re going to grind some more to not only produce more, but to get back everything you had already acquired through your labor and again lose what your grinding out now? Yeah, sounds equitable to me!
I hate reset too. Why do i need to farm and grind everthing again and again. Why did i grind before? For nothing. And for example i wanna build an animal farm hunting animals. But why would i do that, if its gonna all be gone in few weeks??? Why would i invest my time in it?
@@Hazy-Moon besides coming with an argument against my point. U have nothing else to say. To a sensless reset where u have to do same thing again. Imagine u watch the same movie for multiple times. Still fun in it?
Yeah... at least you can set up the farm in Eternaland? Yeah, it lacks any kind of utility but you can "kinda" keep it. Maybe they'll add more options in the future. I don't know. I really hope so.
Yeah... Eternaland is kinda... pointless. You can build a pretty house there to maybe show you friends but literally no other point to it. I hope they'll add more utility to it in the future.
i mean it just to pass time till October/September for new playmodes. Honestly, PVP servers more fun than PVE servers. Dont have to deal with Primal bosses
Yeah, it's a placeholder basically. It's just... I don't know, weird that they didn't prepare a new scenario for the first season end. it's like the main premise of the game, seasonal content and all that and they didn't have their first season ready. Thankfully the next scenarios are going to arrive pretty soon so the wait isn't THAT long but I just don't feel that a slight difficulty increase counts as new content (It's more annoying with how ruthless the hunger/thirst are now).
keep an adv saw and drill. take batteries to make stardust.... day 2 on hard server... level 42.... grind? u get 550 wood from 1 tree.... over 200 from each mineral. and only take 1 deviant. farm grow shrooms and bees..... game is so fun and easy once u learn it.
Yeah, getting the chance to bring the saw and drill with you makes it the easiest, but I'm talking more about the whole kill bosses/prime wars/dungeons for mods grind. I just think the game will be even more fun if you'd have more things you could work towards.
@@Comrade_Del i hope so as well... day 2 of week 2... everything done... maxed out all my stuffs.... i think the boring part is the wait.... ours has 3-4 more weeks.... this is supposed to be a hard server as well............
@@JesseConsopolus That's what I mean! I also maxed everything out in week 2. In Manibus phase 3-4 is literally just filler where you wait. Sure, there's new PW bosses... but you literally go through them in like an hour if your server is active. I really have nothing to work towards except farming materials so I could build missiles for the PW, which tbh, I don't even need to do since EVERYONE on my server does it so it's not like we'll ever run out of ammo in a PW. Sure, I sometimes farm for furniture and building blueprints but they're so rare and unreliable to find that it's so time consuming and kinda boring...

@@JesseConsopolus Yeah, PW can be fun... when they are not lag hell xD Doing PW with a full instance is torture with all the lag. Hopefully they'll fix it soon but I guess they're too busy on the mobile version atm
you grind for 3 things. 1. perfectly rolled mods 2. perfect gun mods 3. upgradin to 6/6 stars all your build. This is a hardcore experience for min maxers only, the rest back to your games. Edit: WIPE best thing ever, u login in Hard server and within literally 5 minutes your Jaws, your Shaman and your S700 unstable sniper all 3 items 3/6 stars. In 5' from gettin into the new Hard server. This game is for the long run, Min maxin your build to absolute max. Both mods, stars and gun mods. This might take 4 seasons in total to complete.
The fact there is only 2 people playing still on my server because everybody has switch to hard mode (not season 2) so we have no high level players with us anymore, impossible for us two to finish the season 1, impossible without help to finish Lea for exemple. Just why. So we lose all high level players 2 weeks before end of season for what reason. So they can go redoo the same season again just because. I thought the new Areas will open so the second season could start. But no, so I just lost all friends in my hive before season 2 even start. 😅 I don’t like this design. Love the channel, Much Love.
Thank you! Same thing happened in my previous server I think. About 90% of the people moved on to a new server, myself included so I have no idea who those who remained are even doing on the server now since barely anyone remains on it...
Don’t quote me on this but I heard there will be a new tier for legendary like mythic grade and roaming great one in the future, I guess that new way to grind or something. Will see what they’ll come up with in the future. For now I am grinding for build formula because I love building in this game and help my friends out cuz I’m done with my build. Also I’m grinding for higher tier deviants like lvl 5
Yeah, it's definitely something to do. As much as nobody says it, the game is basically in early access so I have high hopes for all the future plans they have. They did mention that you won't need to grind for lvl 5 deviants soon as they think to implement a system where you can just fuse duplicate deviants to get a stronger one, or fuse two different ones to get a whole new one. Something like that! Can't wait for them to implement that! I'll finally have something to do with all the cats I collected!
This game is grindy cause otherwise it would be boring. Immagine having Maxed out base in the first week...allot of people have everything within first week. As soon as Chapter 2 of the season opens they unlock rest of memetics and inside that week they max out the base as well with remaining stuff. Then 90% of them get bored and leave the game..that is why in the 3rd phase you do not see many people left. But also look at Tarkov....tarkov is grindy af...but after 6 months...once the wipe comes. All your grind is gone...literally nothing remains. So viewing like that....plaing Tarkov has no purpose at all onl PVP. Idk. I played many games that were not grindy and completed it in 1-2 weeks. Then left the game. Agree with you, to fix this they indeed need to add more to grind towards not just mods and estetics. Also more things to do like fishing and farming so even after you own everything, you can still do stuff. Regarding wipe. They could push the wipe to 3 months as it is impossible to generate new content every 6 weeks without bugs and issues.
Honestly, if they want to make this game into a gacha game (the fact that it's being released on mobile kinda clues us into it) they might as well just copy all the other gachas and let us grind for lootbox rolls. At the very least you actually might get something tangible out of it like cosmetics. I don't know if the next scenario is going to suffer from the same problem, but like I said previously, phase 3-4 of the season is plain out filler. The amount of players dropped drastically. Only day 1-2 has all the players and then everyone leaves for a week because you literally have everything set up by week 2. As for wipes, they did say that we will have repeats as they plan on releasing 4 scenarios a year... which means we will have to repeat some scenarios. On paper it's okay since ideally, you'll have 4 (if not more further down the line) scenarios to choose from to replay but right now we just have one, or rather two with the upcoming one. So once it's done... we will either have to replay the first scenario or the new one. At the end of the day, this IS basically an early access game so it is what it is.
One big fault I find in this game is controllers , I ran out of controllers last season so me and my friends are keeping our controllers until pro mode unlocks so we dont do anything only starcrom related stuff so first few weeks your doing nothing only walking around this needs to change , Give us something to enjoy doing the dungeons and dump the primewars they are broken . Charge a monthly fee so everything does not revolve around the wish machine its boring and they only way to get the weapons .
Can't help but agree. Right now my server is already on week 4... and to be honest, I haven't really played at all in week 3 and 4 simply to save up on my controllers so I could at least farm properly before the end of the season. The only thing we can do is grind gear... but that is LIMITED! Events, which you can use to farm controllers, are ALSO capped with a daily limit so you can't even really grind them.
new map/scenario per season is just too much on the team i think. New map/scenario every other season I'm happy (or - extend the season length and then do it per season)
They are on record for saying that they plan on releasing 4 scenarios per year, which of course means we will have to repeat some scenarios between the releases. It's going to be a lot better further down the line when we will have multiple scenarios to choose from when it comes to repeats but right now we only got on (two in a month) so... yeah, I guess we have to give it time.
I'm also expecting something new on the next season since they mentioned that they will add new scenarios ans stuff but I watched some of the videos from new servers and found out that it is still the same as the old one. I still love the game but will wait on the new content they promised. On my server, there are like 3 weeks or less before reset so I don't mind about what I watched on yt for the new season. Still a fun game tho
Definitely a fun game and I still enjoy it! I'm basically using this... filler season to stock up on starchrom and hoping that there'd be new weapons or something in the next scenario or something.
Never heard someone repeat that amount of complaining in one video. 20 min for virtually no real information?? Could have gathered more information from Pornhub.
I think you need to step back to see the hole picture. There is nothing grindy about the game. If you optimise your approach you can probably complete each phase in about 3-5 hours. Devs wanted to attract various groups of people while trying to level the field. Everything is about starchrom and blueprints. Mods and calibrations are just means to an end. You get about 300 controllers per season. You blow through them in no time. What grind do you see where? Doing what exactly?
Well, I'm more talking about the whole killing the bosses, using controllers to unlock the reward chests to hopefully get the mods you want. Other one is grinding for endgame mats but that's thankfully automated... unless you REALLY got screwed with your memetic specializations. Making missiles for primewars if you're into grinding for the rewards from there. It gets pretty pricy pretty fast so you either wait for your automation to produce the stuff you need or you go out and grind for more. Of course, it's pretty tame when compared to some MMOs out there, but the grind still exists, as tame as it is. And you're right about the 3-5 hours. I wasn't in any rush but I completed every phase after phase 2 in like 2-5 hours... while it's still the early days and I believe that further down the lines things are going to be more varied and we'll just have plain more stuff to do, right now it's a bit of a bummer. I really think this game is good and I just want to have more stuff to do, you know what I mean? Phase 1 and 2 had plenty of content to keep you occupied for a week if you don't rush it or optimize it but even unoptimized, phase 3-5 barely have 5 hours worth of content in them. I for one don't view difficulty raise as actual content.
@@Comrade_Del I must admit, running through silo to kill boss in 10-20s > restart > again does feel boring, grindy and repetitive. I hope they are going to rework it in the future to reward you for killing trash mobs and make it at least somehow challenging. However, one could argue that you do not really need to do that. If your build is powerful enough to speed run it like that, you do not need better mods/calibrations so it's time to park the game and wait for next season lol
@@CostelloDamian Yeah, my complaint stems from the fact that I'm not really that kind of player. I got a good build that works for me and that's all I need. I don't feel the need to grind these bosses for hours to mix-max my mods and so on... so what is there to do for me? Not really much to do for casual players, at least fun things. Once you're done with the story, all you have left to do (If you're not going to grind for mods) is farm for mats for missiles and upgrading your gear and once you're done with the gear, there's only gridning for missiles for the PW. With how the Manibus scenario is set up, a casual player can get there in day one, finish all the Prime Wars in a couple of hours and get the starchrom and then... just leave and come back once the week is done and a new phase is done, spend a few hours doing the PW to get the Starchrom and then leave for another week. I just feel that this game would be tremendously more fun for casual players if they at least expanded the loot pools, or added more events that give you various different things to spice things up. Phase 3 and 4 of Manibus is by far the weakest. No story quests, no sidequests. I just log in once a day for 15 minutes to load up my refineries on oil and that's it.
@@Comrade_Del indeed. Tbh that would probably be quickest way to get the most Starchrom. 4k from boxes in the season shop. 4k from purification plus whatever from that phase reward and scenario completion all in one week. And off to the new server 😂
@@CostelloDamian Exactly! But this is basically a live service game and... well, I would expect it to have more game to it and stuff to do! It's still early though, so there's hope they spice things up along the line. I just hope they'll do it before a lot of players bail from the game :(
They promised 4 scenarios a year for pvp and pve, we will be repeating content unless they drastically lengthen the season. It’s a team of 3 or 4, most of what you comment about has been addressed in their dev videos or the dev responses in the discord.
Yes... but that's no excuse for not having it ready on schedule. I understand it's a small team, but that doesn't excuse poor planning. If you got to a restaurant and order a starter and a juicy, delicious steak but you get only the starter and they tell you to come back next week for the steak because they only have on chef in the kitchen... I really don't believe that you'll be okay with it. And I understand there will be repeating content... but this is the first rotation. It's the most important one. This is where they have to show off to maximize player retention and right now, they kinda lost the ball here. While there's a natural bleed to the amount of players in this game, a good portion of it is from the early servers. In fact, an additional decrease to player numbers the moment the season wipes start. People are leaving, though thankfully not a lot and I know a few that plan to come back once the new scenario comes in.
I’ve watched anomalies kill an entire team. Hard mode feels distinctly harder. Getting hungry and thirsty twice as fast is ridiculous, and the great ones are harder
Honestly, no clue what anomalies you were fighting but I solo them pretty easily with no issues whatsoever. Even easier now since I took the cradle specialization. I solo'd through phase 1 and saw no difference in the great ones as I breezed through them on my first try. Yeah, they deal more damage... but that is it. Maybe once hard more gets unlocked it'll be A LOT more challenging but so far I don't see THAT much of an incrase in difficulty. ALSO that hunger and thirst speed is ridiculous. Less hard but more plain out annoying.
Maybe because grinding makes part to construction base too, I say you have no reason for having a base earlier... Yeah for a person that goes for the missions, and does not give importance to building, I've did a lot grinding to make and evolve my house, maybe the game is constructed to this and not just the MMORPG part*, but hey look there's a different kind of players that like to make other things to like build cool places even in early game...
Nah, I'm saying that there's no point in having a base because the next phase unlocks in 2 days, so I'd rather wait those two days, unlock concrete and build the base I actually want instead of needing to rebuilt the inferior base I can build now. More than that, the location I want to build my base in right now is locked, soooo... I'd rather wait! :D
@@wesker9267 Yeah, this is basically filled to keep us occupied until the actual season 2 happens. I just hoped that there would be more variation. We only got 2 enemy variations and that's it :S Sure it makes some boss fights a bit more challenging but imo it doesn't really FEEL hard to play on a hard server.
Survival game fans dont care and this is a survival game first and mmo second... survival game players they are used to loseing all progress after a single death. This wipe is tame
True, but this isn't really a survival game either... for a survival game, it's really tame. Then again, they did promise to buff up the survival aspects in the next scenario so we will see!
I don't really hate on the reset? I think it's a cool and definitely interesting idea, it's just the implementation of the FIRST reset kinda sucks. Long term it will definitely work better when you reset and do a different scenario but I'm just saying that basically having to replay the same scenario again is a bit disappointing when most people were hoping for a new scenario to play.
Take a break bro, play a different game and come back crying over a free game not having their new content ready when you want it they could of easily just kept you in the old servers with literally nothing to do insted of giving you some filler content with a new server boo fucking hoo
So imagine this. You're walking by a restaurant and there's a hype person outside who tells you that they'r serving the coolest steak. It's done differently, might taste really cool and they offer you to try it out! So you go in, take a seat, they give you a nice salad as an appetizer and then the waiter approaches you and tell you that you will have to wait a month for your steak because the chef is busy making potato soup this month. So you'll just sit there and be happy you got a free salad or you'll ask what's up? What I'm saying is that the game was marketed as being seasonal with new scenarios after every wipe. It wasn't until like a week before the wipe where the devs clarified that in fact we are not going to get a new scenario after every wipe and we will have to repeat some content. Sure, that's perfectly fine... but since it was the main premise of the game, I personally feel a bit disappointed (and so do many others by the way) that they didn't actually prepare a new scenario for their very first wipe, which is arguably the most important one as it can heavily affect their player retention and would highlight the intended premise of the game long term.

I hear ya man i paid 300 for a beach set up lol
I'm also expecting something new on the next season since they mentioned that they will add new scenarios ans stuff but I watched some of the videos from new servers and found out that it is still the same as the old one. I still love the game but will wait on the new content they promised. On my server, there are like 3 weeks or less before reset so I don't mind about what I watched on yt for the new season. Still a fun game tho
Definitely a fun game and I still enjoy it! I'm basically using this... filler season to stock up on starchrom and hoping that there'd be new weapons or something in the next scenario or something.
Never heard someone repeat that amount of complaining in one video. 20 min for virtually no real information?? Could have gathered more information from Pornhub.
Yep! But thank you for watching 20 minutes of my braindead rambling nonetheless!
I think you need to step back to see the hole picture. There is nothing grindy about the game. If you optimise your approach you can probably complete each phase in about 3-5 hours. Devs wanted to attract various groups of people while trying to level the field. Everything is about starchrom and blueprints. Mods and calibrations are just means to an end. You get about 300 controllers per season. You blow through them in no time. What grind do you see where? Doing what exactly?
Well, I'm more talking about the whole killing the bosses, using controllers to unlock the reward chests to hopefully get the mods you want. Other one is grinding for endgame mats but that's thankfully automated... unless you REALLY got screwed with your memetic specializations. Making missiles for primewars if you're into grinding for the rewards from there. It gets pretty pricy pretty fast so you either wait for your automation to produce the stuff you need or you go out and grind for more. Of course, it's pretty tame when compared to some MMOs out there, but the grind still exists, as tame as it is.
And you're right about the 3-5 hours. I wasn't in any rush but I completed every phase after phase 2 in like 2-5 hours... while it's still the early days and I believe that further down the lines things are going to be more varied and we'll just have plain more stuff to do, right now it's a bit of a bummer. I really think this game is good and I just want to have more stuff to do, you know what I mean? Phase 1 and 2 had plenty of content to keep you occupied for a week if you don't rush it or optimize it but even unoptimized, phase 3-5 barely have 5 hours worth of content in them. I for one don't view difficulty raise as actual content.
@@Comrade_Del I must admit, running through silo to kill boss in 10-20s > restart > again does feel boring, grindy and repetitive. I hope they are going to rework it in the future to reward you for killing trash mobs and make it at least somehow challenging. However, one could argue that you do not really need to do that. If your build is powerful enough to speed run it like that, you do not need better mods/calibrations so it's time to park the game and wait for next season lol
@@CostelloDamian Yeah, my complaint stems from the fact that I'm not really that kind of player. I got a good build that works for me and that's all I need. I don't feel the need to grind these bosses for hours to mix-max my mods and so on... so what is there to do for me? Not really much to do for casual players, at least fun things. Once you're done with the story, all you have left to do (If you're not going to grind for mods) is farm for mats for missiles and upgrading your gear and once you're done with the gear, there's only gridning for missiles for the PW.
With how the Manibus scenario is set up, a casual player can get there in day one, finish all the Prime Wars in a couple of hours and get the starchrom and then... just leave and come back once the week is done and a new phase is done, spend a few hours doing the PW to get the Starchrom and then leave for another week. I just feel that this game would be tremendously more fun for casual players if they at least expanded the loot pools, or added more events that give you various different things to spice things up. Phase 3 and 4 of Manibus is by far the weakest. No story quests, no sidequests. I just log in once a day for 15 minutes to load up my refineries on oil and that's it.
@@Comrade_Del indeed. Tbh that would probably be quickest way to get the most Starchrom. 4k from boxes in the season shop. 4k from purification plus whatever from that phase reward and scenario completion all in one week. And off to the new server 😂
@@CostelloDamian Exactly! But this is basically a live service game and... well, I would expect it to have more game to it and stuff to do! It's still early though, so there's hope they spice things up along the line. I just hope they'll do it before a lot of players bail from the game :(
They promised 4 scenarios a year for pvp and pve, we will be repeating content unless they drastically lengthen the season. It’s a team of 3 or 4, most of what you comment about has been addressed in their dev videos or the dev responses in the discord.
Yes... but that's no excuse for not having it ready on schedule. I understand it's a small team, but that doesn't excuse poor planning. If you got to a restaurant and order a starter and a juicy, delicious steak but you get only the starter and they tell you to come back next week for the steak because they only have on chef in the kitchen... I really don't believe that you'll be okay with it.
And I understand there will be repeating content... but this is the first rotation. It's the most important one. This is where they have to show off to maximize player retention and right now, they kinda lost the ball here. While there's a natural bleed to the amount of players in this game, a good portion of it is from the early servers. In fact, an additional decrease to player numbers the moment the season wipes start. People are leaving, though thankfully not a lot and I know a few that plan to come back once the new scenario comes in.
He didn't keep his gravel . Tears!
I knoooooooooooow! I had like 10K gravel T_T Imagine all the bricks and glass I could turn it into!
I hate this locking behind kill border on season 2 ?? 😅 Have to do all bosses again to get forward
I’ve watched anomalies kill an entire team. Hard mode feels distinctly harder. Getting hungry and thirsty twice as fast is ridiculous, and the great ones are harder
Honestly, no clue what anomalies you were fighting but I solo them pretty easily with no issues whatsoever. Even easier now since I took the cradle specialization. I solo'd through phase 1 and saw no difference in the great ones as I breezed through them on my first try. Yeah, they deal more damage... but that is it. Maybe once hard more gets unlocked it'll be A LOT more challenging but so far I don't see THAT much of an incrase in difficulty.
ALSO that hunger and thirst speed is ridiculous. Less hard but more plain out annoying.
@@Comrade_Del when you get two elites spawned as anomalies at a time it can get pretty hairy. The little boxes are no big deal tho.
@@mythikmark3579 I've already fought elite ones and they weren't all too special. Maybe it's my build. It's designed to counter them lol.
twice hooman when
Maybe because grinding makes part to construction base too, I say you have no reason for having a base earlier... Yeah for a person that goes for the missions, and does not give importance to building, I've did a lot grinding to make and evolve my house, maybe the game is constructed to this and not just the MMORPG part*, but hey look there's a different kind of players that like to make other things to like build cool places even in early game...
Nah, I'm saying that there's no point in having a base because the next phase unlocks in 2 days, so I'd rather wait those two days, unlock concrete and build the base I actually want instead of needing to rebuilt the inferior base I can build now. More than that, the location I want to build my base in right now is locked, soooo... I'd rather wait! :D
@@Comrade_Del okay that reason makes more sense, I agree with you
Hard servers weren't season 2
They're not. I'm of the opinion that harder difficult does not equate new content.
@@Comrade_Del no, what i mean is that season 2 has yet to come, this was just a mutation server, prismverse clash is season 2
@@wesker9267 Yeah, this is basically filled to keep us occupied until the actual season 2 happens. I just hoped that there would be more variation. We only got 2 enemy variations and that's it :S Sure it makes some boss fights a bit more challenging but imo it doesn't really FEEL hard to play on a hard server.
Survival game fans dont care and this is a survival game first and mmo second... survival game players they are used to loseing all progress after a single death. This wipe is tame
True, but this isn't really a survival game either... for a survival game, it's really tame. Then again, they did promise to buff up the survival aspects in the next scenario so we will see!
My honest opinion, people crying too hard, those who instantaneous hate on the reset have very limited information of what is going on lol
I don't really hate on the reset? I think it's a cool and definitely interesting idea, it's just the implementation of the FIRST reset kinda sucks.
Long term it will definitely work better when you reset and do a different scenario but I'm just saying that basically having to replay the same scenario again is a bit disappointing when most people were hoping for a new scenario to play.
Ok so... If you had stayed in your old world... What did you have left to do?
Pve resets is stupid
Take a break bro, play a different game and come back crying over a free game not having their new content ready when you want it they could of easily just kept you in the old servers with literally nothing to do insted of giving you some filler content with a new server boo fucking hoo
L take, defending a senseless wipe is crazy.
@@Licmebro wasn't defending anything, this guys crying like his mum just told him he can't have ice cream, i assume you're the same.
So imagine this. You're walking by a restaurant and there's a hype person outside who tells you that they'r serving the coolest steak. It's done differently, might taste really cool and they offer you to try it out! So you go in, take a seat, they give you a nice salad as an appetizer and then the waiter approaches you and tell you that you will have to wait a month for your steak because the chef is busy making potato soup this month. So you'll just sit there and be happy you got a free salad or you'll ask what's up?
What I'm saying is that the game was marketed as being seasonal with new scenarios after every wipe. It wasn't until like a week before the wipe where the devs clarified that in fact we are not going to get a new scenario after every wipe and we will have to repeat some content. Sure, that's perfectly fine... but since it was the main premise of the game, I personally feel a bit disappointed (and so do many others by the way) that they didn't actually prepare a new scenario for their very first wipe, which is arguably the most important one as it can heavily affect their player retention and would highlight the intended premise of the game long term.
