Quick correction, the difficulty 95 sign is misplaced and should be at 1:39:30 ! Where the 95 pops up should instead be 90! Sorry 'bout that! And so this is it, the last post I will likely be making in 2023! Hope you all have a wonderful holiday season and eat slightly too much food! Hope this video was a good one to end things on for now. More From the Depths, Stellaris and city builders to post about in the new year! :D Also you can now find the Latest Movies similar to this video on a new playlist - th-cam.com/play/PLz_s8fD_-7sG5EPAqvXFw6OZK4WiVaLsa.html
Funfact: FTD gravity above "Space" ramps up exponentially, and finally reaches a "singularity". This happens around 8k altitude. At that height, nothing can pass, and this is called "The Wall" in Neter lore. The Wall is a defensive measure maintained by ancient machinery deep below the Gray Talon homeland. The Wall stops all outsiders from entering, except the Scarlet Dawn, who have The Key, which lets them basically make a hole through it. This wall and funny gravity can be abused with CRAM mortars, to have 1.5km/s very fast homing CRAM's which is funny. This however *basically neccesitates autodetect to work well*
From the depths challenge idea: bottom of the ocean. You must spend the entire game hugging the bottom of the ocean and only surface or use drone when entering portal.
Early game he could go for grappeling hook torpedos/missiles to drag the enemy ships & flyer to the sea floor. Not sure how well that would work mid to late game though. Maybe, finally, we'll get a good nuke drone that magnetises towards the hulls of ships.
Hey Lath, I know the regular campaign can take ages to finish 100% and you probably feel like its been done to death over the years but I'd love to see you hit that with some challenges too. Perhaps not necessarily claiming every tile for yourself but maybe just going for all resource zones or all "boss fights" with some challenging constraints. A run in which you can't gather resources apart from the corpses of your enemies would be pretty neat.
Your next challenge, should you choose to accept it: A Scavenger Run. You are forbidden from designing your own weapons, they must be stolen from destroyed craft using the prefab function (probably by just going into sandbox mode to steal it from there instead of trying to capture so many vessels). No reshaping turret caps or reprogramming weapons, you must survive to the end with your cobbled together amalgamonster of a ship. Good luck! Awesome video btw, thank you so much for doing this longform content, it's so much more fun to watch!
After watching so many FtD videos I finally tried my hand at it and man is building a good craft exponentially harder than what we see in these videos! It really makes me respect Lath and the effort he puts into these long sessions over the years. Excellent as always sir
He is pretty humble about his building skills but here's food for thought, if you load in a 'boss' design like megaladon, bear in mind the lore master built it and then basically gutted it to be killable, what we get to fight is a heavily nerfed variant
I'd love to see a run where you use exactly one of each type of weapon. Maybe start with one of your choice, then add a new one with each portal you enter so that you can't focus on making one or two uber-powerful and neglecting the others. In the later levels you'd have to use your best judgement to maintain balance between all the weapons, but I think it could still be really interesting.
For all those who do not get the reference, This is from Red Alert 3: Command and Conquer. The best command and conquer, not because its balanced but because its fun.
1:13:56 The Rectifier the flying laser ship you were wondering what you hit to make it go out of control. Unfortunately you didn't do anything to it, it was too high. You can see in the time stamp it says "too high. Going out of control"
Here I am on Christmas Day watching a 2 hour video of a game I don't play (infact I don't play a single game shown on this channel), just because I like listening to Lathland. The "laid back seriousness" mixed with the subtle (sometimes not so subtle) humor is what keeps me coming back watching this videos. It's a great time to relax from stressful endevours of life.
Obviously we're talking bout the tried and true IJN Yamato. it's forgotten history that Imperial Japan sent the Yamato for its first maiden flight before it got recalled to be used on the surface.@@evanm1337
You can use breadboards to allow your ship to maintain a manually selected altitude. Using the secondary\tretiary drives as a player controlled altitude switch, and converting it to a target altitude value.
I loved the tilting space station that would have to move to fire it's main gun, just makes it so much more imposing than a turreted weapon. Would love huge advanced or railgun that just delivers one large HE or HEAT round. Also how does space fair for the land mode?
I love how every time he plays from the depths and is fighting something, no matter how bad the situation is, he prioritizes praising the builds all the time whenever he can, you gotta love it.
Bruh i absolutely love FTD and been into it for an absurdly long time. i just got a pc yesterday after not having one for the past 5 years and i was so hyped to play FTD, downloaded it, hopped on, then realized i suck 😂. These movies you make somehow inflated my own ego enough to think i had a chance at all in adventure mode. Im gonna need a LOT more practice and experience
I just want to say i have loved your from the depths content content over the years ever since one of your first videos 9 years ago which made me fall in love with your channel and the game
I have been watching your videos for some time now, but I wanted to say that I truly enjoy your content, and while From The Depths is my favorite series your other series are incredibly enjoyable and great as background noise while I am studying or just doing household chores. Genuinely, thank you for doing what you do good sir.
"One Shot" only. You have to use a weapon with a 2-minute or longer reload time. Since I don't know if a true one-shot only is possible, you can have multiple weapons, but you have to fire them all at once. You can use any form of countermeasures but not to intentionally attack the enemy. There has to be at least a 2-minute delay between firings. You can use continuous damage weapons like lasers, but they have to be used in short bursts with the 2-minute delay. You can make any form of craft you want, so (submarine, plane, spacecraft, land craft, anything else) is fully allowed.
Railgun with sabot rounds for lots of penetration. And I meant a really, really powerful railgun. Then set the AI to target enemy AI block. Absolutely sucks for lots of small enemies, but useful aganst one large enemy, since if your AI fires accurately the round just goes through everything and destroys the enemy AI.
Hi Lathrix! Thanks for keeping up the great vids! May i recommend a capture only run where you only use vehicles you capture for your next try? Here are some optional rules: 1. You may not build a craft as you are used to. Instead, you mist capture and modify crafts the game spawns in to progress. When you capture a new craft, you must scrap your old craft (or make it a bot if you’re really attached :) 2. You may not add more than 20-30% to the volume of any craft you capture, to size up, you must capture a new craft. 3. Try to work with the theme and weaponry of each craft you capture rather than modifying each the same way. Done right, this should be great way to showcase of a bunch of different designs and give them your own spin. 4. Have fun! We love you Lath :)
you can theoretically add ships you've built into fleet indexes to be used... its how a bunch of custom ships have become cannonized into the various fleets over time.
just spoke to my friend about you- watched you since I was little it seems. JUST STARTED playing from the depths. thank you for so many years of good memories, laughs and content.
These long FTD videos are so entertaining, not a game I would ever have the capability of picking up, but seeing your creations and process is so damn entertaining! Reminds me of making crazy things with legos as a kid! Thanks for putting in the work and making these long videos, I’m sure they’re painstakingly slow to edit so really excellent work!
YES I’ve been waiting for another one of these playthroughs, IMO some of the best on youtube. I’ve recently started FTD, and now I appreciate these so much more lol. I always forget as a normal person that scientists can be this chaotic. Love it
Would love to see your engine designs sometimes, they are really wierd in this game and I find it hard to make my own, so seeing what other people do will help immensely!
Back when I used to play a lot of From the Depths I did some tests in regard to what was the best engine, can't quite remember what came out of it but it wasn't RTG's. As you say, RTG's take up a lot of space in comparison and they have a high upfront cost. Great for a transport vehicle that doesn't need much power and will spend the majority of the time traveling in the main campaign. But for something like a combat vehicle it takes up a lot of space and resources that could be used for firepower/armor instead. Besides, most combat vehicles tend to salvage their destroyed enemies for fuel and ammo, so the lack of resource consumption on RTG's is not that important. Early game the 'starter' vehicles won't be used for long enough to make up for the upfront investment of RTG's, and even late game the different factions may require swapping out designs.
That last fight was great. I do love those videos and I've waited a long time for a space one. I know it's cheesy, but you know... It's so cool! How about a short range particle cannon or even particle cannon melee next time?
When I played spaceship. On my run I used a tethered black that I lowered down to the portal. Make sure to have upward thrust as the gravity will pull your ship down
From the depths is one of my favourite series on the channel along with random stuff like nimbatus, they are definitely series I want to see continued in the future :)
The Steel Striders Mobula seems to be a combination of the P-1112 Aigaion from Ace Combat 6 and the Gleipnir from Ace Combat X, with the shape being the P-1112 and the downwards facing particle cannon being the signature attack of the Gleipnir. It’s a great adaptation, and it fits well with FTD and the SS.
Finally! A space run done by one of my favourite FTD youtubers - this was my first interest in FTD as in the trailer years ago pre-release it had space battles etc.
A couple "Can you beat FtD" Challenge suggestions: -Mecha only. (You must have either hover, driving, or sailing as the bottom part, and your weapons have to fit on a humanoid shaped craft.) -Hijack only. (beyond the first craft being needed to be outfitted to attack another craft, you can only advance to the next zone in a vehicle that was once owned by the enemy. Minor modifications permitted, IE the new vehicle needs a heartstone, or a weapon is set up improperly/inefficiently.)
From the Depths is a series I wish to see continued in the future. Man, seeing this episode makes me want to roleplay aliens invading the poor citizens. Making a space battleship that zooms through space one minute and swoops down for an attack the next (would solve the portal crossing problem) Plus, it would look pretty cool.
Your FTD have been a huge inspiration for me as I try to get into the game! I’m still very new, and making decent looking hulls still evades me, but I’m learning! I hope to one day be able to make crafts like this, love the long term videos!
Can I just say that it has been FAR too long since you've made any allegiance to the ruinous forces of Chaos. Glad to see you returning to your roots, even if it is with Tzeentch of all creatures. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!
you should do a run with your main craft in the atmosphere but it has no weapons while you have a secondary craft in space carrying all of your offensive capabilities
Challenge idea. Main, unarmed vehicle, with a number of free-floating, attached structures, each one with a unique weapon type. Lastly, theme as chaos undivided, with each floating turret using a different god for it's theme. Most likely, Tzeentch has high tech, magical laser and partical cannons. Nurgle has living ammo, missiles and torpedos. Swarmers preferred. Khorn has overwhelming force in Cram and Partical Cannons. And Slanesh has excess in sniper and rapidfire Adv Cannons. I don't think there is another weapon type other than melee or drone nukes. Extra if each uses different materials and defenses. PD, flares, shields, heavy armor etc, as appropriate.
FTD is a series i love to see continue in the future. I will also like to see games like Dyson Sphere project(i heard it got a combat update so i'd love to see what that game has to offer) Planetary annihilations titans(with galactic conquest overhaul mod with its recommended mods as well. ) and satisfactory.
What an awesome run! Space is of course op. Absolutely love the final fight against the singularity :) I can't believe you actually won! All be it only just.
These from the depths series are best movies I watched this year sir! Thank you for your hard and dedicated work! Marry Christmas to you and a Happy new year!
somehow, TH-cam did not put this video in my feed, although I'm subscribed (with notifications on mind you) and watch every video. Anyway, I'm glad I found it, now I'm going to enjoy my weekly hours of Lathland goodness.
Idk why, but I really like the idea for a space craft to have its main weapons be torpedoes. Like, you drop the thing from space and have it use it’s propeller to hit the enemy. I don’t think it’d work very well, but it’d be hilarious.
Quick correction, the difficulty 95 sign is misplaced and should be at 1:39:30 ! Where the 95 pops up should instead be 90! Sorry 'bout that!
And so this is it, the last post I will likely be making in 2023! Hope you all have a wonderful holiday season and eat slightly too much food! Hope this video was a good one to end things on for now. More From the Depths, Stellaris and city builders to post about in the new year! :D

I'd love to see Avorion again as well
Imagine a ship that can launch it's own orbital cannon into space that's either a load of cram cannons stacked or a giant laser
Happy holidays!

I hope you have a wonderful christmas and a happy New year. looking forward to See more content from my Favorite youtuber 😘😘

So something like Ocean crawler?
There's no bottom
Sounds like fun

Not sure how well that would work mid to late game though.
Maybe, finally, we'll get a good nuke drone that magnetises towards the hulls of ships.
@@galaxyofgames9904 there is a bottom, but for some reason it doesn't affect torpedos. It does work with wheels, I tried it
lath saying hes going to move away from lazers only to double down on them in the end is the most lath thing ever
agreed lol😂😂
That and "I was dicking around and had some alcohol and now we have a full ship"

No joke was thinking what a challenge like be like and if it’d be fun.
This would be insane!
A very interesting concept
Would love to see what frankenstein craft he'd have by the end of that.
This
That damage racking up during the lag at the end was amazing. :)
The temptation to just make a small death star must of been strong
Just putting all points into a huge death laser and frontal armor sounds amazing
I would love to watch that chew holes through helpless boats

hey, id love to see a universal warship style playthrough.... evolving to face EVERYTHING but not really be amazing at any of it
I AM ESCAPING TO THE ONE PLACE NOT CORRUPTED BY CAPITALISM… SPACEE!!!
Nope. They're already there.
Smiles in elon.
_laughs in future space-industrial complex_
For all those who do not get the reference, This is from Red Alert 3: Command and Conquer.
The best command and conquer, not because its balanced but because its fun.
Sweet summer child. Space is already infected by space commies
Can I just say the fact you created The Spirit Dropshop from Halo in the beginning was something I was NOT expecting-
The MOMENT I saw the purple sides, war flashbacks hit me like a truck.
I thought it looked familiar
At 14:26, the design reminded me of a Jem'Hadar attack ship, or the USS Defiant...

"a proper space battleship"
and my brain immediately jumps to the Yamato :)
Raised from the depths to fight into even deeper, greater depths.
I hope it's the Yamato from the anime, because the real Yamato is the furthest thing from space-faring that a battleship can be.
Obviously we're talking bout the tried and true IJN Yamato. it's forgotten history that Imperial Japan sent the Yamato for its first maiden flight before it got recalled to be used on the surface.@@evanm1337
Your lack of a hangar for your shuttle aggravates me to no end😡
its a criminal offense honestly
You have become Tzeench's LASIC eye surgeon. Which given his constant shape shifting, is a full time job.
I love the Covenant-esque look the ship has at the midway point of the video lol
I wonder how a space themed campaign could go, like one with mostly spaceships.
It's easy to get up to high speed in space, so a lot of kiting and chasing, or just straight up using plasma weapons and not care about positioning
Space mode like the land based mode I don't know the name of maybe

-Bomber craft run
-Advanced Cannon only run
-Missile only run

I always forget as a normal person that scientists can be this chaotic. Love it
its always a good day when Lathrix posts a long video

-Mecha only. (You must have either hover, driving, or sailing as the bottom part, and your weapons have to fit on a humanoid shaped craft.)
-Hijack only. (beyond the first craft being needed to be outfitted to attack another craft, you can only advance to the next zone in a vehicle that was once owned by the enemy. Minor modifications permitted, IE the new vehicle needs a heartstone, or a weapon is set up improperly/inefficiently.)
From the Depths is a series I wish to see continued in the future.
Man, seeing this episode makes me want to roleplay aliens invading the poor citizens.
Making a space battleship that zooms through space one minute and swoops down for an attack the next (would solve the portal crossing problem)
Plus, it would look pretty cool.
Your FTD have been a huge inspiration for me as I try to get into the game! I’m still very new, and making decent looking hulls still evades me, but I’m learning! I hope to one day be able to make crafts like this, love the long term videos!
I love how the craft ended up looking like the defiant around 20 minutes in
Can I just say that it has been FAR too long since you've made any allegiance to the ruinous forces of Chaos. Glad to see you returning to your roots, even if it is with Tzeentch of all creatures.
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!
Was not expecting the chaos tribute to the lord of change. Love the videos and content. Excellent work
Glad I woke up to see this in the morning, loving the longer videos just hope it isn't too tiring for you.
Lathtrix: Proposes making a Space Battleship.
My mind: SBY theme starts playing.
you should do a run with your main craft in the atmosphere but it has no weapons while you have a secondary craft in space carrying all of your offensive capabilities
Challenge idea. Main, unarmed vehicle, with a number of free-floating, attached structures, each one with a unique weapon type. Lastly, theme as chaos undivided, with each floating turret using a different god for it's theme.
Most likely, Tzeentch has high tech, magical laser and partical cannons.
Nurgle has living ammo, missiles and torpedos. Swarmers preferred.
Khorn has overwhelming force in Cram and Partical Cannons.
And Slanesh has excess in sniper and rapidfire Adv Cannons. I don't think there is another weapon type other than melee or drone nukes.
Extra if each uses different materials and defenses. PD, flares, shields, heavy armor etc, as appropriate.
FTD is a series i love to see continue in the future.
I will also like to see games like Dyson Sphere project(i heard it got a combat update so i'd love to see what that game has to offer) Planetary annihilations titans(with galactic conquest overhaul mod with its recommended mods as well. ) and satisfactory.
What an awesome run! Space is of course op. Absolutely love the final fight against the singularity :) I can't believe you actually won! All be it only just.
Thank you lathrix for my early Christmas gift
These from the depths series are best movies I watched this year sir! Thank you for your hard and dedicated work! Marry Christmas to you and a Happy new year!
Nothing better for Christmas than a FtD video from Lathrix
I loved that flying battleship you saw. Not as much as your craft but still
somehow, TH-cam did not put this video in my feed, although I'm subscribed (with notifications on mind you) and watch every video. Anyway, I'm glad I found it, now I'm going to enjoy my weekly hours of Lathland goodness.
6:06 The Rat has a hard time hitting stationary targets at 50 meters in calm seas. He's probably not going to shoot down your space station.
"We can evade all those cram shots" as the CRAMs detonate above the ship, the shrapnel shredding the shuttle and almost making you lose the run
oh my god. i remember watching you play from the depths way back in 2nd grade lmao, absolutely gigantic hi tof nostalgia
Idk why, but I really like the idea for a space craft to have its main weapons be torpedoes. Like, you drop the thing from space and have it use it’s propeller to hit the enemy. I don’t think it’d work very well, but it’d be hilarious.
From the depths is a series I’d like to see continued in the future
I hate playing this game because my brain is too aerodynamic. I *love* watching you play it.
