I've always held a huge love for underrated games like this. I have no clue why people think sitting down leaving their pc burning on an RNG game would be better than actual good games.

This game is an absolute gem of a ROBLOX game. Honestly the biggest problem is; - never updated - the community is toxic - most people in public lobbies are always busy mewwing and rankmaxxing by rushing as soon as the game starts and you cant even build anything - no dad that's weird or strict, and no residents were massacred.
The meta is even worse it's bore spam and the game is just spamming.Yoy just do the same thing spaming bores and orbital shields for a few hours till you get enough ground to beacon.Sometime you see a sea barge I guess.But those are the only other not rush strats.
I remember reading in Eclipsis' old description that you could explore to find some "hidden secrets" about the planet we were on, or whatever still waitin' for that lore update
I played it in 2017 or 18 and didn't understand, I remember hearing laser drills and explosions in my island base like "wow someone's getting raided" then I tipped into the ocean and died. I played it again like 2 years ago with my cracked asian friend who carried me to 1300 rating and he was at 1900, I started mastering the skybase method against someone else 1300 rating and I was absolutely pushing myself to the limit just to slowly make a skybase while defending the previously made parts from my opponent. That was when I peaked. Game fell off since, really. It's sad, its skill ceiling is just too high and nobody new joins, so I can't even play anymore without going against total tryhards or total newbies.
Also, one time we made a massive array of bores, at least 50 prob around 100 and we had a seat with a gatorade shower that we completely vaporized someone's base with. Bore barging is actually pretty useful, but my friend was the one who was good at that.
In my opinion, this game failed because making so much crap just to win a 2v2 is quite lame. It’s a two hour or more time commitment for almost nothing.
what are you talking about? 'for almost nothing' what are you expecting to unlock the next world at the end of the match? the fun of the game IS the competition.
@@radpugguyNo. That’s not what I was saying at all. There’s no end game. In the two hours everyone’s gone. There’s no clash at the end. It’s only a 2v2 by the end.
The lack of a quick match mode is what kill this game. 90% of the time spent in the game is joining and leaving shuttle strategically just so you can meta game the rounds
As the loyal dedicated fan you mention in this video (I have played this game religiously for years) I must say you hit the nail on the coffin thankfully the developers have been recently trying to the address these issue as of late
gotta love how you mention the conquerors for having player retention with skins for lenghtier matches (20 minutes or more) despite most matches being decided in the first 5 minutes, either your team takes the advantage or everybody leaves the game
one of the main issues with eclipsis is that the devs cater to higher ranking players and make it much harder to get into. in my opinion the game would strive much more if there were 2 different servers, a casual server where you can only play if you're rank 1400 or lower and a pro server where everyone else is. a majority of the problem is mixing the 2 different ends of the bell-curve together an example is this: in a 12 v 1 where its 12 sub 1500s against 1, 15000, the 1x 15000 player will win 9/10 times While there are issues there are some points that were inaccurate. Some points that were failed to be mentioned is that bores aren't used as a single attacking laser, that cruise missiles aren't good, and that rushing isn't as big as a problem as people make it out to be Bores get used in a much wider scale, some games end up with hundreds of bores once you get to the point of a bore spam game it gets a lot more like a game of rock paper scissors there's a thing called "upgrade rushing" where during the middle of late game you take a full kit of weapons and try to break their attack the main item in this upgrade rush being a "laser strike" which was also not mentioned in the video. if you've ever seen an orbital strike from the beacons the laser strike is very similar. its basically just a small, condensed orbital beacon another thing that was miss explained was the fact that cruise missiles aren't a good strategy. they effectively create a draw because they cannot break through a defense if it is being actively defended against. if there is a 2v2 and someone is cruise missiling the opponents sea base then it locks 2 people into a permanent draw. effectively this 2v2 turns into a 1v1 additionally rushing isn't as big as an issue as 1200s make it out to be. yes it is annoying but you just have to make guns and fight back. or even place the new defense tower down, the sentry. if you can defend against a rush then you will almost be guaranteed a late game match. a minor point when saying "transmitter (actually called a transceiver) being removed" is a bit inaccurate. they weren't removed they just got changed. now they are required to be anchored to actually work. you can actually see the transceiver in the video at 14:00 other than these few points the video points out a lot of good things. like the extreme lag that happens, only continuing to get worse as you get better at the game and get faster at building. TL:DR devs don't like new people
15:26 Davidii didnt remove the transmitter, he just removed the combination it had with barges. They used to be able to be connected TO transmitters ON moving barges, and was extremely powerful. However, Davidii was in a match and lost handedly to one of these transmitted barges, got enraged, and removed the functionality permanently from the game. While he apologized for the rage, he never reverted the change, and that is where the transmitter sits now.
I remember a few years ago, a couple of friends tried to get me to play this game, and it was extremely boring to me. Strategy games weren't really my thing
I'm glad you cover niche games such as Eclipsis. When you point out the flaws in a game's design most people will just dismiss you as inexperienced, so it's always nice when a big youtuber says what's been in your mind from the start. The gameplay is great but very quickly spirals out of control which results in THE most toxic, stressful, and draining gaming experience I've ever had in any game, and that includes MOBAs. It's extremely noob-unfriendly which is something to respect on a platform like Roblox.
what I like about this game is there's a new factor to winning fights usually it's like reaction speed and stuff like that but now it's your building skills. I like this factor and I think more games should try to add this to their games I remember when I did play this game or make massive destroyer hover ship type things
I absolutely love this game, found it randomly from the suggestion thing when looking at a game. The first thing I made was basically the sith empire. It’s sad that my friends never gave it a chance.
I used to play this game all the time but the reason it died was its own fandom, either the game lasted 5 minutes from minigun rushers or 6 hours because nobody knew how to properly play, it never hit the perfect balance.
The thing that made i stop playing the game, was the people that speedrunned getting a smg and a bazooka and then rushed to the closest island making the match end in like 7-10 mins
I have made an anti-rush strategy at the end of the game, it involves getting turrets as soon as possible, this will stop most players from actually hitting your base, I had a case that an attempted rush turned in to a siege of my base by just building a turret (also max upgrade your first well)
Honestly id love to see a pve mode with eclipsis system since i really like the building and resource harvesting, kinda like how conquerors has a pve mode where you just go toguether and build defenses
Holy shit, eclipsis! Man I remember this game so well, me and a friend used to play it and set up our own strategy of winning by hard stall. Before alot of things changed, mostly the middle beacon that calls down air support, we used to setup spawn points all across the map and repeatedly spawn and rush to build more spawn points to time the enemy out with sheer volume of places we could appear in. We built them under their base, in the sky, on autonomous flying machines, even under the water where you're not supposed to be able to build thanks to a glitch. I saw alot of talented players built super cool bases that me and my friend simply couldn't, but we still had fun playing it in the weird and silly hide and seek way that we played every match with. It's fun to see a retrospection on it, since I do miss the game at times. Great video as always Breadian.
Regarding the transceiver, iirc it used to be that transceivers only required line of sight to transmit and receive iridium, which led to crazy bases being built then a developer whose name I cannot remember decided to add a condition that required transceivers to be anchored to work (which incentivized players to use the spatial anchor, but also basically forced you to put one on your barge if you wanted to use a transceiver for it) it was a whole drama at the time, quite insane really
Eclipsis is a truly unique game, not just on Roblox, but for all games. It takes advantage of Roblox's two greatest features: a built in physics engine and multiplayer by default. If you have ever played Subnautica, there's a certain charm with creating and piloting your own submarine, like a mobile base. That's what drew me to the game, to build multi purpose barges and moving bases that could bring destruction anywhere on the map. That was before ratings were introduced, when the aim of this game was to have fun in just building. The closest you'll ever get to this is something like Space Engineers, but confrontation is way slower there. There were many things I did not like about the game, the toxic community, the "meta" which made 90% of the buildings useless, and the abysmal frame rate. But no other game even has this type of gameplay, the closest you'll get on Roblox is Aegis Beta, but that game tries so hard to do anti-grief that it makes playing it impossible. I left Eclipsis after wasting many, many hours of life grinding a high enough rating. One day, after losing a game, I reevaluated my life at that point. Eclipsis is stagnant. The community size has been on a downward trend for the past couple years and will likely continue to shrink. I decided to cut my losses, and reclaimed my free time for something else.
PLEASE make a video on Overheat: Mech Warzone!! It used to be pretty popular, but it's pretty dead nowadays and abandoned by devs. I still think its one if not the most fun shooter on Roblox.
I absolutely love eclipsis and think it is super good. Unfortunately, it is in my eyes, another rts type game. Generally, people do not like rts games cause of the difficulty spikes and the management aspect. I love rts games, but fundamentally, they are niche, and most are bound to fail in terms of uber popularity.
You should do a video on rogue nightmare, its peak. It takes a LITTLE getting used to, but once u get into it, its a blast. You need friends to truly enjoy it (its very team based imo) but you can have fun doing it solo. The other thing I want to mention is that it has a free camera and u can move it around, mainly wanting to move it to be a skyward camera (its MUCH easier if its top down) but you can technically play first person for a challenge.
game's a bit too easy if you use certain strats (not even talking much meta or bugs, just not handicapping yourself might make the game boring at certain stages)
@@mishagaming1075 only too easy based on the mode you pick* if you do hard mode its still easy if u run any hyper focussed build. But if you do the hardest mode, you will be cooked.
Would love to see a review on Anomalous Activities. It's a relatively unknown game that's been out for about 2-3 years now. And although it's very high quality, the game only gets around 10-60 players (at certain times literally no one plays it).
ive noticed breadian is starting to make more clickbait-y thumbnails, i dont blame him, the algorithm sucks, keep up with the michellin star tier content brother
Oh my god wait. I think I remember this one. Either that or something like this.. I swear I remember it being on the front page for like, a few weeks after it dropped. I swear I remember the skybox was like, a night sky or just space or something, but my memory might just be bad. I don't think I ever made much progress in any round while playing it, mostly 'cause I was young and more clueless back then. But the part I most distinctly remember? The UNUSUAL amount of lag. No other game had lagged like it, at least from my experience, and EVERYONE seemed to get hit by the lag. Even those with good computers. I've been looking for this game for a while, but I only had a very vague remembering of it and couldn't describe it well (and it was also slightly off- i had remembered it as more 'polygonal' tile-based but after seeing the video I think I probably got that part mixed up from something else) and NOBODY I talked to ever knew it. I don't even have it favorited, I don't know why. Probably because of the lag or because I sucked at it and got bored of it.
(Obviously it's not) But I feel like Eclipsis is a more realistic game. War is frustrating, stressful, it takes awhile to make things that can instantly be taken away. And war can be very slow.
The good news is that they added a great update yesterday! (12.25.) In the update there was a major change that they removed the submersivle = harder bore spam, and optimised the game significantly, and you need to go for the resources. The playerbase doubled almost instand (from 30 to 60). I think it may have a chance OwO.
Honestly with a better platform that could carry more players and better physics, better processing, and overall better player support, this concept seems amazing, gameplay would need to be slightly rebalanced but I could imagine this being a super successful steam game. It’s the same reason that tradelands and sea of thieves is more satisfying than 100 gun broadsides with a click of a button, it’s because you do everything by yourself, your character is not instantly in command of everything, it is far less detached and foreign.
i remembered playing this game quite a few years ago, and my favorite part of the game was not the actual gameplay or mechanics itself, but utilizing a bug/glitch to create giant flying machines
I remember joining Eclipsis and send to the tutorial and i was so confused on what to do since i didnt know how to speak english that much back then, so i just mined some crystal i saw, and went to build some random stuff, after being confused for along time on what to do, i left, the tutorial really kept me away from a decent game
When I play eclipsis, I spend half an hour building a huge mothership-barge and every single time, without fail, it gets flung into oblivion by a singular enemy rocket.
My favorite roblox memory is from this game were I was on a team of 8-ish and we setup the most dominate empire and bore'd the other players islands until nothing was left.
i played this game once in 2020, i found it so sick but obviously i didnt know anything about how to play. say i got steamrolled was an understatement, there were literally no way i could possibly win in the situation i was put in where my opponent had a freaking fortress i never really thought about playing again after that
The owner was toxic to members in the Discord (literal meltdown at members) and ignored the game for a while, it got so bad there were exploiters and this was around 2022 I believe. The owner prioritized profit for the most part, letting the game die (and still is) letting it die. Also some of the strategies in this game are almost impossible to come back from, especially if its someones main strategy (sky bridging)
This is not true. I've been banned from multiple accounts and have not played Eclipsis in 3 years, but I still remember the developers as extremely pleasant people. I remember Davidii leaving eclipsis to work on something else but I don't think any of the players ever faulted him for it. A developer choosing not to work on a game is their choice. It's unfortunate, and the playerbase will suffer, but it's not up to your discretion, especially when dealing with such a toxic community. Also, there's nothing wrong with prioritizing profit. Game developers are people too, and they need to earn a wage. Eclipsis has never been a pay to win game and that deserves praise.
I hate watching eclipsis dwindle in players everytime I go on the game because it was such a good game back in the day I loved that there was so much potential to do whatever you wanted and you were controlling everything on the battlefield As roblox games become filled with constant fast dopamine releases it makes users not have the urge or insentive to play 2 hour games of eclipsis If you try to play the game nowadays there is always a sweat that makes unlimited iridium supply and build all beacons within 10 minutes of the game starting, you just cant compete anymore This will forever be cherished in my heart as it was such a good game back in the day
I remember playing this game back in 2018 and had such a blast, only problem was getting destroyed by tryhard who were getting max everything in the first 5 mins of gameplay
this is weird to say, but the destruction is kinda why me and my friends play it from time to time, but we still have our issues with it considering we're good at pushing orbital
i remember finding this game years ago and playing it with a friend, enter 2 months ago and I was searching for it but couldnt find it. im so thankfull i got to find it again
I remember playing this game years ago. The community back then was less toxic and went to late game. Those late game battles were insane. But its dead now😢
I never get Roblox extensions, the owner gets your password and everything when you download an extension, one time a guy had a really famous extension with millions, and he went rogue and hacked all of them stealing MILLIONS of players and hundreds of accounts, you might think "oh this guy won't do that with his extention" you never know, they might me 1 word away from breaking, I don't take the chance.
I used to play this game all the time, but I lost my old account and got wrongfully banned on my new one. I fully understand why they banned me, but i went to the group page and tried to get unbanned, but they stopped responding after saying they would look into it.
sadly, this game just devolves into Minecraft Bedwars where rushing is the best strats. The devs could've made a better game with the same building mechanics as this, just not PVP.
The bore has no downsides. The cruise missile does. At max a single player can operate like 12 arsenals. The best counter to missile spam is just wall spamming or having repairs behind the walls. Its a common strat on skybases to counter such an annoying tactic. Bore spam. Simply cannot be killed. - You try to nuke it with orbital ----> They spam recervoirs to block any damage - You try to sky base above ----> They bore you from a mile away. - You go from under ----> You get tesla'd - You try to rocket spam ---> Why you rocket spamming in 2024 - You try to go for the sea base ---> They place down 30 shields because their production goes over 600 iri/s - You try anything at range ---> You get bored - You try battle barge ----> Your stuck with post 2021 transceivers ----> You're a sitting duck ---> 10 min down the drain Its only counter is just bore spam back. See who can bore spam the most!!!!!!!!!! Which is just retarded for a game with soo many features. Thank fuck they nerfed the reservoirs recently. So you can now orbital the bores. But even then! They'll just spam shields or use their infinite iridium supply to build it back up in 30 seconds while you cry for the good old days of skybase meta!
For real skybase meta was so much fun.The game needs to get way less spammy.I think wells only would be great.Untill they make all exctractors have specific spots to be placed.There is just too much iridium
This game is really good, been a player for 2 years, here is why the game isn’t popular: 1. Tutorial is trash. The tutorial is basically teaching you how to lose, often making players frustrated and making new players more likely to quit. 2. High level players often harass low lvls for their lack of skill. 3. Teamwork is like messy for 80% of the time due to new players messing up everything
Yeah, I love this game. I'm gonna study to become a game designer and I'll be looking to make strategy games like this one that allow and reward creativity along with non-typical auto-battlers like Majesty: Fantasy Kingdom
My general problem with the game is the fact that the game does feel like it takes forever. Also most people complain when there more than 6 people on one team (yes this is possible as stacking a whole server into one pod ensure they all be on the same team and can dominate by sheer number from all side
THIS IS THE SECOND GAME I PLAYED EVER but then i forgot it... But with key words last year i played it again... Till i again just suddenly started thinking about it recently and thanks to you i can return to this game whenever i want, thank you
You should play the battle bricks is kind an underrated game but it needs some people to play the game and also dont forget epic boss gladiator also is another epic Game with cheeseburger crusade, FSL, Boss fighting stages and other stuff So yea ;)
Even tho the game is entirely dead, you NEED to check out Aegis Reborn the base game and the reborn version are absolute gems. I miss that game so much
i played this game a longgg time ago. and the only main thing i remember about it was entire base islands just disconnecting from the world and teleporting sideways in the air. which was what happened to mine and i was stuck on a little cube at the sea level. fun times
This is my favorite game and I saw it a while back Spike to 1,000 it still receives updates I would play more but my mom no longer lets me use her PC because I jacked up a setting on it and it almost bricked it
I got around 2800 rating (Almost a top 100 leader board player) and here's what I have to say: 1. Rushing isn't all that much of a problem. It's not that great of a strat for most people and imo is nice when it happens because it speeds up the games a lot. I've played 3+ hour matches with the entire thing being a stalemate. Newer players tend to hype up rushing, saying "it's too powerful" but the reason its so powerful isn't because of the strategy itself, but because you're trying to fight someone far above your ability. 2. THE META HAS NOT CHANGED ONCE. Sea base then just spam bores. Over and over. And over. There are no other strategies that will let you win. 3. Balancing. Once in a blue moon, the other team might try rushing or arty barging, but it almost always never ends successfully. The game is very very repetitive with only bore spam and submersible spam. All the game is spam. Just build as much of the same structure as possible. There's no real strategy in this; just monotonous building. 4. Lag. Holy lag. Once you play your first high-level match, expect a ping of at least 500. My FPS typically sits around 10 ish and I use an i7-9750H. 5. Player counts. There are low player counts, meaning you have to wait ages for someone around your skill level to play. 6. Toxicity. Yeah uhh it's a competitive game. Pretty much everyone is toxic. You're toxic, your friends are toxic, and its not fun to play frusturation simulator. 7. Exploiting/bugs. This hasn't been as much of a problem recently, but sometime around 2023, I was experiencing exploiters in maybe 60% of matches. Also, game is kinda buggy. Luckily, again, many things have been patched, but dont expect a great experience. tldr the game is BORE-ing, frustrating, and laggy.
I loved playing this game when it came out and its really made me sad that its died like many other games I played back then on roblox when it had decent originality.
i remember playing this game a solid 7 years ago or so never knew what happened after stopping but im sad to see it grow forgotten that even i forgot the name
You should review this game called "Block Tales" a great classic themed Turn Based RPG inspired by Earthbound and Paper Mario and the creator is UnknownNamedGuy
Genuinely don't know why I kept playing after my first few matches (glad I did lots of fun now), the learning curve (in my experience 2020-2024) is soooo steep. I mean, who the hell was gonna tell me that wireless caps should be used for like most things? Game sure as hell didn't... That's a very common trend, you just don't learn stuff you need to, if you experiment, rushed or spammed by weird laser explosion devices in bases you don't even understand yet.

rayo go back to forex
Hi rayo
lock in
My buddy used to play Eclipsis a lot back in 2017, I joined him for a couple rounds but I didn’t think that this game would still have players today
Breadian please pay your child support
I agree with this statement
My education has been unmade because no
He’s with Leon rn
I wonder if Breadian is an odd and stern father
If he did he’d have to pay out at least five million
gotta love how you mention the conquerors for having player retention with skins for lenghtier matches (20 minutes or more) despite most matches being decided in the first 5 minutes, either your team takes the advantage or everybody leaves the game
one of the main issues with eclipsis is that the devs cater to higher ranking players and make it much harder to get into. in my opinion the game would strive much more if there were 2 different servers, a casual server where you can only play if you're rank 1400 or lower and a pro server where everyone else is. a majority of the problem is mixing the 2 different ends of the bell-curve together an example is this: in a 12 v 1 where its 12 sub 1500s against 1, 15000, the 1x 15000 player will win 9/10 times
While there are issues there are some points that were inaccurate. Some points that were failed to be mentioned is that bores aren't used as a single attacking laser, that cruise missiles aren't good, and that rushing isn't as big as a problem as people make it out to be
Bores get used in a much wider scale, some games end up with hundreds of bores
once you get to the point of a bore spam game it gets a lot more like a game of rock paper scissors
there's a thing called "upgrade rushing" where during the middle of late game you take a full kit of weapons and try to break their attack
the main item in this upgrade rush being a "laser strike" which was also not mentioned in the video. if you've ever seen an orbital strike from the beacons the laser strike is very similar. its basically just a small, condensed orbital beacon
another thing that was miss explained was the fact that cruise missiles aren't a good strategy. they effectively create a draw because they cannot break through a defense if it is being actively defended against. if there is a 2v2 and someone is cruise missiling the opponents sea base then it locks 2 people into a permanent draw. effectively this 2v2 turns into a 1v1
additionally rushing isn't as big as an issue as 1200s make it out to be. yes it is annoying but you just have to make guns and fight back. or even place the new defense tower down, the sentry. if you can defend against a rush then you will almost be guaranteed a late game match.
a minor point when saying "transmitter (actually called a transceiver) being removed" is a bit inaccurate. they weren't removed they just got changed. now they are required to be anchored to actually work. you can actually see the transceiver in the video at 14:00
other than these few points the video points out a lot of good things. like the extreme lag that happens, only continuing to get worse as you get better at the game and get faster at building.
TL:DR devs don't like new people
15:26 Davidii didnt remove the transmitter, he just removed the combination it had with barges.
They used to be able to be connected TO transmitters ON moving barges, and was extremely powerful.
However, Davidii was in a match and lost handedly to one of these transmitted barges, got enraged, and removed the functionality permanently from the game.
While he apologized for the rage, he never reverted the change, and that is where the transmitter sits now.
Trancievers work on barges you just have too anchor it with a spatial anchor
He reverted the change, busy re-added it.
*Davidii removed the tranceivers, then it got re-added by Busy but it was nerfed, it only works now when fixed in place
they're making it so they work on moving barges again btw
breadian the voices in my head are getting louder i can feel myself getting weird and strict
Do not become a dad!!!
I remember a few years ago, a couple of friends tried to get me to play this game, and it was extremely boring to me. Strategy games weren't really my thing
I'm glad you cover niche games such as Eclipsis. When you point out the flaws in a game's design most people will just dismiss you as inexperienced, so it's always nice when a big youtuber says what's been in your mind from the start.
The gameplay is great but very quickly spirals out of control which results in THE most toxic, stressful, and draining gaming experience I've ever had in any game, and that includes MOBAs. It's extremely noob-unfriendly which is something to respect on a platform like Roblox.
what I like about this game is there's a new factor to winning fights usually it's like reaction speed and stuff like that but now it's your building skills. I like this factor and I think more games should try to add this to their games I remember when I did play this game or make massive destroyer hover ship type things
I absolutely love this game, found it randomly from the suggestion thing when looking at a game. The first thing I made was basically the sith empire. It’s sad that my friends never gave it a chance.
Yeah.. Most of my friend quit after 1-3 games.. They didn't like me building bombers, I guess
I used to play this game all the time but the reason it died was its own fandom, either the game lasted 5 minutes from minigun rushers or 6 hours because nobody knew how to properly play, it never hit the perfect balance.
The thing that made i stop playing the game, was the people that speedrunned getting a smg and a bazooka and then rushed to the closest island making the match end in like 7-10 mins
I have made an anti-rush strategy at the end of the game, it involves getting turrets as soon as possible, this will stop most players from actually hitting your base, I had a case that an attempted rush turned in to a siege of my base by just building a turret (also max upgrade your first well)
Exactly. Automated turrets are an early rushers worst enemy!
This works until an enemy rusher's able to load in faster than everyone else or when a rusher starts launching rockets at you
bro literally just get an smg from an arsenal and beam the rusher its so simple
@trollol2919 do you know how many players are bad at shooting
Ur like one of the only good roblox youtubers left man
yeah since he isn't like drake diddy
@@piranhalettucedrake said batman is fat 😡
@@garfieldfan925 drakes drakster is colossal
You’re forgetting about dennis, flamingo, temprist, Rust_010, etc…
The reason people leave is because there’s a lack of a dad that’s weird and strict the just couldn’t live without it
Honestly id love to see a pve mode with eclipsis system since i really like the building and resource harvesting, kinda like how conquerors has a pve mode where you just go toguether and build defenses
In this video he talked about lag, I've never experienced lag and I used the barges like 24/7 when I played that game
it only lags in long game, with actual good players
or in large matches with good players, like 5v5 +
Holy shit, eclipsis! Man I remember this game so well, me and a friend used to play it and set up our own strategy of winning by hard stall. Before alot of things changed, mostly the middle beacon that calls down air support, we used to setup spawn points all across the map and repeatedly spawn and rush to build more spawn points to time the enemy out with sheer volume of places we could appear in.
We built them under their base, in the sky, on autonomous flying machines, even under the water where you're not supposed to be able to build thanks to a glitch. I saw alot of talented players built super cool bases that me and my friend simply couldn't, but we still had fun playing it in the weird and silly hide and seek way that we played every match with. It's fun to see a retrospection on it, since I do miss the game at times. Great video as always Breadian.
Regarding the transceiver, iirc it used to be that transceivers only required line of sight to transmit and receive iridium, which led to crazy bases being built
then a developer whose name I cannot remember decided to add a condition that required transceivers to be anchored to work (which incentivized players to use the spatial anchor, but also basically forced you to put one on your barge if you wanted to use a transceiver for it)
it was a whole drama at the time, quite insane really
Eclipsis is a truly unique game, not just on Roblox, but for all games. It takes advantage of Roblox's two greatest features: a built in physics engine and multiplayer by default. If you have ever played Subnautica, there's a certain charm with creating and piloting your own submarine, like a mobile base. That's what drew me to the game, to build multi purpose barges and moving bases that could bring destruction anywhere on the map. That was before ratings were introduced, when the aim of this game was to have fun in just building. The closest you'll ever get to this is something like Space Engineers, but confrontation is way slower there. There were many things I did not like about the game, the toxic community, the "meta" which made 90% of the buildings useless, and the abysmal frame rate. But no other game even has this type of gameplay, the closest you'll get on Roblox is Aegis Beta, but that game tries so hard to do anti-grief that it makes playing it impossible.
I left Eclipsis after wasting many, many hours of life grinding a high enough rating. One day, after losing a game, I reevaluated my life at that point. Eclipsis is stagnant. The community size has been on a downward trend for the past couple years and will likely continue to shrink. I decided to cut my losses, and reclaimed my free time for something else.
IVE KNOWN THIS GAME FOR YEARS MAN IT ALWAYS MADE ME SAD HOW ITS UNPOPULAR, loved watching the pros 1v1 it was so cool.
PLEASE make a video on Overheat: Mech Warzone!!
It used to be pretty popular, but it's pretty dead nowadays and abandoned by devs.
I still think its one if not the most fun shooter on Roblox.
Did someone got bredian in his basement, video after 2 days? not weeks or months?
I absolutely love eclipsis and think it is super good. Unfortunately, it is in my eyes, another rts type game. Generally, people do not like rts games cause of the difficulty spikes and the management aspect. I love rts games, but fundamentally, they are niche, and most are bound to fail in terms of uber popularity.
Thanks for your input love u
You should do a video on rogue nightmare, its peak. It takes a LITTLE getting used to, but once u get into it, its a blast. You need friends to truly enjoy it (its very team based imo) but you can have fun doing it solo. The other thing I want to mention is that it has a free camera and u can move it around, mainly wanting to move it to be a skyward camera (its MUCH easier if its top down) but you can technically play first person for a challenge.
Yeah rogue nightmare is realy good . I some times play again solo
@@nizamettinboyabatl5868 but nobody bas reviewed it man ;i
game's a bit too easy if you use certain strats (not even talking much meta or bugs, just not handicapping yourself might make the game boring at certain stages)
@@mishagaming1075 only too easy based on the mode you pick* if you do hard mode its still easy if u run any hyper focussed build.
But if you do the hardest mode, you will be cooked.
Me and my friends found this game years ago, such a hidden gem. Sad it never really grew to the level it should’ve
Would love to see a review on Anomalous Activities. It's a relatively unknown game that's been out for about 2-3 years now. And although it's very high quality, the game only gets around 10-60 players (at certain times literally no one plays it).
The Stalker: Reborn is another Roblox game like anomalous activities but it’s more dead and with less content but still really fun and less complex
Breadian you sold me laced fent, the voices are screaming now
ive noticed breadian is starting to make more clickbait-y thumbnails, i dont blame him, the algorithm sucks, keep up with the michellin star tier content brother
New artist knows best, but I can understand and recognise that they might take a while to get used to.
Would be cool to analyze the turbulent seas aswell, which was really popular for a couple weeks and then went into a steep decline.
Never expected you to cover this game, pretty wild.
Oh my god wait. I think I remember this one. Either that or something like this..
I swear I remember it being on the front page for like, a few weeks after it dropped. I swear I remember the skybox was like, a night sky or just space or something, but my memory might just be bad.
I don't think I ever made much progress in any round while playing it, mostly 'cause I was young and more clueless back then.
But the part I most distinctly remember? The UNUSUAL amount of lag. No other game had lagged like it, at least from my experience, and EVERYONE seemed to get hit by the lag. Even those with good computers.
I've been looking for this game for a while, but I only had a very vague remembering of it and couldn't describe it well (and it was also slightly off- i had remembered it as more 'polygonal' tile-based but after seeing the video I think I probably got that part mixed up from something else) and NOBODY I talked to ever knew it. I don't even have it favorited, I don't know why. Probably because of the lag or because I sucked at it and got bored of it.
(Obviously it's not) But I feel like Eclipsis is a more realistic game. War is frustrating, stressful, it takes awhile to make things that can instantly be taken away. And war can be very slow.
The good news is that they added a great update yesterday! (12.25.)
In the update there was a major change that they removed the submersivle = harder bore spam, and optimised the game significantly, and you need to go for the resources. The playerbase doubled almost instand (from 30 to 60). I think it may have a chance OwO.
Honestly with a better platform that could carry more players and better physics, better processing, and overall better player support, this concept seems amazing, gameplay would need to be slightly rebalanced but I could imagine this being a super successful steam game.
It’s the same reason that tradelands and sea of thieves is more satisfying than 100 gun broadsides with a click of a button, it’s because you do everything by yourself, your character is not instantly in command of everything, it is far less detached and foreign.
i remembered playing this game quite a few years ago, and my favorite part of the game was not the actual gameplay or mechanics itself, but utilizing a bug/glitch to create giant flying machines
I remember joining Eclipsis and send to the tutorial and i was so confused on what to do since i didnt know how to speak english that much back then, so i just mined some crystal i saw, and went to build some random stuff, after being confused for along time on what to do, i left, the tutorial really kept me away from a decent game
When I play eclipsis, I spend half an hour building a huge mothership-barge and every single time, without fail, it gets flung into oblivion by a singular enemy rocket.
My favorite roblox memory is from this game were I was on a team of 8-ish and we setup the most dominate empire and bore'd the other players islands until nothing was left.
i played this game once in 2020, i found it so sick but obviously i didnt know anything about how to play. say i got steamrolled was an understatement, there were literally no way i could possibly win in the situation i was put in where my opponent had a freaking fortress
i never really thought about playing again after that
I used to play eclipsis back in the day, was good and super fun, only thing holding it back is how new player unfriendly it is.
this game is the definition of “Gamers if given the opportunity will optimize the fun out of a game”
Hey Breadian, You should try out Base Wars. It is an amazing game in my opinion and it still gets updated but it seems to slowly die
Solar conquest ii is also like this, but less irritating and more about space-
i remember playing this game when it had players
The owner was toxic to members in the Discord (literal meltdown at members) and ignored the game for a while, it got so bad there were exploiters and this was around 2022 I believe.
The owner prioritized profit for the most part, letting the game die (and still is) letting it die. Also some of the strategies in this game are almost impossible to come back from, especially if its someones main strategy (sky bridging)
This is not true. I've been banned from multiple accounts and have not played Eclipsis in 3 years, but I still remember the developers as extremely pleasant people. I remember Davidii leaving eclipsis to work on something else but I don't think any of the players ever faulted him for it. A developer choosing not to work on a game is their choice. It's unfortunate, and the playerbase will suffer, but it's not up to your discretion, especially when dealing with such a toxic community. Also, there's nothing wrong with prioritizing profit. Game developers are people too, and they need to earn a wage. Eclipsis has never been a pay to win game and that deserves praise.
@@plr_random1182davidii was the only bad one
I hate watching eclipsis dwindle in players everytime I go on the game because it was such a good game back in the day
I loved that there was so much potential to do whatever you wanted and you were controlling everything on the battlefield
As roblox games become filled with constant fast dopamine releases it makes users not have the urge or insentive to play 2 hour games of eclipsis
If you try to play the game nowadays there is always a sweat that makes unlimited iridium supply and build all beacons within 10 minutes of the game starting, you just cant compete anymore
This will forever be cherished in my heart as it was such a good game back in the day
this game has always been in the back of my mind as the game that i played once, forgot what the gameplay even was, and saw every once in a while.
current eclipsis player here, devs are working on a new overhaul update fixing so many issues
they're still working on it 💀
The fucking discord join call sound at 8:35 messed me up so badly. I thought I was still in a call that I left
I remember playing this game back in 2018 and had such a blast, only problem was getting destroyed by tryhard who were getting max everything in the first 5 mins of gameplay
this is weird to say, but the destruction is kinda why me and my friends play it from time to time, but we still have our issues with it considering we're good at pushing orbital
i remember finding this game years ago and playing it with a friend, enter 2 months ago and I was searching for it but couldnt find it.
im so thankfull i got to find it again
I remember playing this game years ago. The community back then was less toxic and went to late game. Those late game battles were insane. But its dead now😢
i remember this game! i joined my first match and my mother came in, and when i look back at my screen im dead
Breadian finally uploaded.. truly a moment of all time
I never get Roblox extensions, the owner gets your password and everything when you download an extension, one time a guy had a really famous extension with millions, and he went rogue and hacked all of them stealing MILLIONS of players and hundreds of accounts, you might think "oh this guy won't do that with his extention" you never know, they might me 1 word away from breaking, I don't take the chance.
You forgot to mention the lack of anti barrage turrets so suiciding artillery barrage attacks are unstoppable and op.
I used to play this game all the time, but I lost my old account and got wrongfully banned on my new one. I fully understand why they banned me, but i went to the group page and tried to get unbanned, but they stopped responding after saying they would look into it.
This game was so fun and I never even played the PvP aspect of it. My greatest enjoyment was actually building the base and it was so fun to do.
I love this game bro, I know how to make all types of bases bro
sadly, this game just devolves into Minecraft Bedwars where rushing is the best strats.
The devs could've made a better game with the same building mechanics as this, just not PVP.
Oh my god, I were looking for this game FOR AGES it feels like, thank you for making a vid with its name included!
The bore has no downsides. The cruise missile does. At max a single player can operate like 12 arsenals. The best counter to missile spam is just wall spamming or having repairs behind the walls. Its a common strat on skybases to counter such an annoying tactic.
Bore spam. Simply cannot be killed.
- You try to nuke it with orbital ----> They spam recervoirs to block any damage
- You try to sky base above ----> They bore you from a mile away.
- You go from under ----> You get tesla'd
- You try to rocket spam ---> Why you rocket spamming in 2024
- You try to go for the sea base ---> They place down 30 shields because their production goes over 600 iri/s
- You try anything at range ---> You get bored
- You try battle barge ----> Your stuck with post 2021 transceivers ----> You're a sitting duck ---> 10 min down the drain
Its only counter is just bore spam back. See who can bore spam the most!!!!!!!!!! Which is just retarded for a game with soo many features. Thank fuck they nerfed the reservoirs recently. So you can now orbital the bores. But even then! They'll just spam shields or use their infinite iridium supply to build it back up in 30 seconds while you cry for the good old days of skybase meta!
For real skybase meta was so much fun.The game needs to get way less spammy.I think wells only would be great.Untill they make all exctractors have specific spots to be placed.There is just too much iridium
sea barge😭😭
This game is really good, been a player for 2 years, here is why the game isn’t popular:
1. Tutorial is trash. The tutorial is basically teaching you how to lose, often making players frustrated and making new players more likely to quit.
2. High level players often harass low lvls for their lack of skill.
3. Teamwork is like messy for 80% of the time due to new players messing up everything
Black magic 2's falloff gotta be studied
Yeah, I love this game. I'm gonna study to become a game designer and I'll be looking to make strategy games like this one that allow and reward creativity along with non-typical auto-battlers like Majesty: Fantasy Kingdom
i remember playing this a few years ago and not being able to get past getting any resources
Good to see this game finally get some coverage, I’ve been playin it for a long time and it’s been pretty fun, even though I lose half the time
My general problem with the game is the fact that the game does feel like it takes forever. Also most people complain when there more than 6 people on one team (yes this is possible as stacking a whole server into one pod ensure they all be on the same team and can dominate by sheer number from all side
THIS IS THE SECOND GAME I PLAYED EVER but then i forgot it... But with key words last year i played it again... Till i again just suddenly started thinking about it recently and thanks to you i can return to this game whenever i want, thank you
You should play the battle bricks is kind an underrated game but it needs some people to play the game and also dont forget epic boss gladiator also is another epic Game with cheeseburger crusade, FSL, Boss fighting stages and other stuff
So yea ;)
Even tho the game is entirely dead, you NEED to check out Aegis Reborn the base game and the reborn version are absolute gems. I miss that game so much
i joined sols rng and the moment i saw the loading screen i felt like i wasted 50% of my lifetime
i played this game a longgg time ago. and the only main thing i remember about it was entire base islands just disconnecting from the world and teleporting sideways in the air. which was what happened to mine and i was stuck on a little cube at the sea level. fun times
This is my favorite game and I saw it a while back Spike to 1,000 it still receives updates I would play more but my mom no longer lets me use her PC because I jacked up a setting on it and it almost bricked it
I don’t wanna try out the game anymore
I got around 2800 rating (Almost a top 100 leader board player) and here's what I have to say:
1. Rushing isn't all that much of a problem. It's not that great of a strat for most people and imo is nice when it happens because it speeds up the games a lot. I've played 3+ hour matches with the entire thing being a stalemate. Newer players tend to hype up rushing, saying "it's too powerful" but the reason its so powerful isn't because of the strategy itself, but because you're trying to fight someone far above your ability.
2. THE META HAS NOT CHANGED ONCE. Sea base then just spam bores. Over and over. And over. There are no other strategies that will let you win.
3. Balancing. Once in a blue moon, the other team might try rushing or arty barging, but it almost always never ends successfully. The game is very very repetitive with only bore spam and submersible spam. All the game is spam. Just build as much of the same structure as possible. There's no real strategy in this; just monotonous building.
4. Lag. Holy lag. Once you play your first high-level match, expect a ping of at least 500. My FPS typically sits around 10 ish and I use an i7-9750H.
5. Player counts. There are low player counts, meaning you have to wait ages for someone around your skill level to play.
6. Toxicity. Yeah uhh it's a competitive game. Pretty much everyone is toxic. You're toxic, your friends are toxic, and its not fun to play frusturation simulator.
7. Exploiting/bugs. This hasn't been as much of a problem recently, but sometime around 2023, I was experiencing exploiters in maybe 60% of matches. Also, game is kinda buggy. Luckily, again, many things have been patched, but dont expect a great experience.
tldr the game is BORE-ing, frustrating, and laggy.
SUCH a good game. I was getting depressed to see when it was quickly losing it’s player-base over the months
I've been playing eclipsis since around 2018-2019 but the game truly is underrated, I honestly wish more people would've played it.
i stumbled upon this game and i LOVED it. sadly i dont play it anymore but its genuinely one of the coolest games ive ever played.
It’s always the sweats that ruin small good games like Eclipsis, due to the devs not doing anything about them or not adding new content
just get good😭😭
@@KFCeddy 5000 elo 🤮🤮
I loved playing this game when it came out and its really made me sad that its died like many other games I played back then on roblox when it had decent originality.
Still in " Favorites "
Btw, you have 5 minutes before you escape the " Starting island " in multiplayer mode.
man i used to tryhard eclipsis (smh eclipsis devs you should have added gambling)
He fails because of that op flying ship meta build
i remember playing this game a solid 7 years ago or so
never knew what happened after stopping but im sad to see it grow forgotten that even i forgot the name
eclipsis was a good game when i used to play it, its sad that it started to die. i subbed i like these videos like this.
I remember playing this then forgetting the name and I spent a year trying to find it thank you
You should review this game called "Block Tales" a great classic themed Turn Based RPG inspired by Earthbound and Paper Mario and the creator is UnknownNamedGuy
Genuinely don't know why I kept playing after my first few matches (glad I did lots of fun now), the learning curve (in my experience 2020-2024) is soooo steep. I mean, who the hell was gonna tell me that wireless caps should be used for like most things? Game sure as hell didn't... That's a very common trend, you just don't learn stuff you need to, if you experiment, rushed or spammed by weird laser explosion devices in bases you don't even understand yet.
