[@valery898]

So exciting to see the developers making the game more accessible to different types of players by making combat optional! Thank you so much for compiling all the info for us as always, Sarah! Your videos never disappoint! ☺️

[@sarahsunstone]

Agreed! And it’s still early on. They’ve definitely made it more accessible while they work on overhauling the combat system for the next major update! Thank you for your support and kind words!

[@sarahsunstone]

@@sumireravenclaw8034 That’s not true. There are floors with no monsters that always have a chance of spawning ore, and I’ve collected ore from around the sleeping monsters without them waking up. I completed all the new mines on stream, gathered a ton of ore and hardly ever engaged in combat unless I wasn’t paying attention. Sorry you had a different experience.

[@FayeBDragon]

Thank goodness we have you for our go-to Coral Island news!! Appreciate being part of this community and getting the lowdown!

[@kadijamimir6054]

I love the option for mining system. In other farming games I felt like going to war every time I go to the mine. This is refereshing. I could finally be able to enjoy mining.

[@ateana_lenn]

the lack of jellos/ability to go through the mines while mostly avoiding the mobs is SUCH A RELIEF. I'm not particularly interested in combat and would rather just breeze through my mining, so thanks for mentioning that you could mostly avoid them! I've played a bit in the new mines, but I fought them by default and didn't realize that I could move around them

[@a.j.nunnaurbiz6535]

As someone who stinks on ice at combat, I'm happy about the reduced need to fight the monsters in the mines! Yay!

[@sarahsunstone]

It’s really enjoyable I find, and I’m super excited about this change! i hope you enjoy too!!

[@vanillemor5009]

When I booted the game, I was one day before Wakus (Wakuu? I'm not sure...) birthday! Since he's one of my romance interests, I was so happy!

[@sarahsunstone]

The stars are aligned for you Meant to be!!

[@oraclecardmessages]

Wow! Thank you for letting us know about these items. This is why you are the Coral Island Queen Everyone playing the update needs to see this video!

[@vanillemor5009]

Thank you for this video, I was SO confused by my wine being apple wine?!

[@sarahsunstone]

My pleasure!! I know right?!

[@QueenietheBoss]

Would you be up to making a video about steps to completing the rare artisan alter? I feel like I'm missing some steps lol

[@lawrencep.b.1971]

I bought 300 hardwood & then bought the house upgrade slay I guess!

[@LaviniaDeMortalium]

hahaha yeah by year four I'm so rich I've just been buying up stuff to complete updates too.

[@sarahsunstone]

I bought the hardwood tooooo I mean.. you’ll be all ready the moment we can access the rooms and you can decorate that center space in the meantime

[@selphia9109]

Thank you for this!!! I really wish they would make the 2nd floor to our home accessible soon. Im gonna try to use the insect “bait”to catch harder bugs. Hope you could do an offering completion video for the altars. Much love to you as always!!! Take care!💕

[@demonangel918]

I love little surprises! Thank you for covering this, since starting my new job I haven't been able to explore the update like I wanted. You are the best

[@opalharmony]

Excellent video!!! That you for giving us the scoop!

[@francinetallent7683]

Great info! Thanks SO much!!!

[@justalilguyyourhonor]

Great stuff! As for future content, a new guide to the big $$ money making strategies now that cooking is less viable would be cool!

[@SailorDonut]

Yes, that's what I was going to ask for, too. I was super late to the game so only got a couple weeks of being able to grind bug jerky and I didn't make anywhere near enough money to buy most of the necessary items in the game, like cooking stuff or the expanded backpack, etc 🤦‍♀️

[@caffeinatedbee9554]

I love the chicken backpack so much!

[@FetchQuestsYT]

I was hooked since your #1-the mill being more useful was a much-needed update! I love the reworking of skill perks, too. Makes you really consider which ones you want to unlock 🔓 Also, congrats on finally catching that elusive widow spider! 🎉

[@sarahsunstone]

Totally! I still haven’t even unlocked any skills yet, other than geode finder and rock domino! Thank you!!

[@andraes9684]

I feel like I need to start my game over after all these updates....

[@barbaracordelie]

No baby animals Great advice on the perks!

[@angelmelton674]

thanks for the info! I was sad to learn you couldn't make moola thru cooking. Though I figured that out when I went to make smoothies and they were only 15 corals. :(

[@bejbrown8]

Thank you for this post. I had figured out many of the ten but the wine two step process had me confused. Thank you for clearing that up!! 😊

[@sahdogwrangler5594]

Thanks for another great video! I love your pleasant & positive attitude! I'm a fairly new player, only in the 1st week of fall. I recently opened the water mine & I thought the different monsters there were exclusive to that location. Haha. I also thought they were easier because I wasn't too far down! Those pink ring throwing blobs were kicking my butt! I'm hoping the bug scent will help me because I stink at catching bugs too.

[@cedargrovefarmgoats]

Thanks great info. I like the changes to the mine. The creatures are adorable instead of annoying lol

[@LovelyTrendyCoolGirl]

OMG SARAH!!!! 😩😩😩😩 I couldn't play Coral Island as soon as the early access went live because my laptop is an old potato and couldn't handle coral islands beautiful 3d models 😂💔 But only a couple of days ago I got a new laptop and FINALLY played Coral Island for the first time!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭 And let me tell you I was so confused when the chests' UI changed, I thought I was hallucinating how it looked before 😂 For months since launch every time I got an upload or stream notification from KZbin and discord I used to just sigh and try to not think how you and everyone watching and tuning in your streams is having so much fun discovering the game 🥲. I wanted to watch your content and streams so bad but didn't want the game to be spoiled for me since I couldn't play. But now I CAN!!!!! 🥳💃🎉✨WOOOHOO👏👏👏 Now I can be active and support the game and your channel as i intended 🤭 Also, now I knew why the Chests' UI changed and more alters opened lol 😜 I didn't know about no spring update!!! 🤡🌺 Thank you for keeping us updated and for streaming the game even though I wasn't there for the majority of it 😝 Love, Lovely TCG (AKA. LovelyTrendyCoolGirl from first stream) ✌😸

[@sarahsunstone]

Awww!! Omg omg! Thank you so much for sharing all this with me! I’m so excited for you to finally be able to play Coral Island! Have SO much fun and I look forward to maybe seeing you catch a stream! I appreciate all the support!

[@Alexsocrossing]

Thank you so much for another wonderful video Sarah your energy is incredibly amazing ❤

[@-miikakamiya-]

A new good way to make money would help a lot. They changed some prices (like smoothies, wine can’t be made,…) and I tried figuring out a lot about the changes but it’s so much to cover!

[@suzannastivell2566]

I have spotted 3 things people should know about 1..Old saves cannot be deleted 2..Spa now only regens 1 at a time not the 3 it used to so takes 3 times longer 3..3rd altar cannot be completed as monster loot still asks for spider fur

[@FayeBDragon]

The monsters do randomly drop spider fur.

[@hamimahanuar]

i actually managed to delete my old save after the update though. i even deleted multiple of it 'cause i kept messing up my character customization lol

[@suzannastivell2566]

@@hamimahanuar I still cannot delete previous saves even after uninstalling and reinstalling game

[@kateknighttime]

Thank you! This was so useful :)

[@coreygraham7477]

Just came across your channel. Watched a lot of your videos. Thanks for the amazing content!

[@sarahsunstone]

Thank you!! Welcome in!

[@Pavlovalon]

Yay! No more spiders! Hurrah to Stairway games for being so considerate of arachnophobia. And the easier mining experience pleases me greatly. I would have felt bad killing the cute new blue slimes.

[@catbirdstudios]

They also added fishing inside the mine levels. You may need to stand back a little from the edge of the water though to cast.

[@sahdogwrangler5594]

Good to know, thanks!

[@madeline569]

Did you find any new fish in there?

[@catbirdstudios]

@@madeline569 Yes, I found the Zebra fish, Silver Arowana, and some sort of Batfish so far.

[@danielleharmon1546]

Hey Sarah!! I love watching your Coral Island videos and streams!(: You’re great and I love watching you play this game even though I never catch your streaks haha!! I was wondering if you knew when this game will be released?

[@barbaracordelie]

It will most likely be fully released in 2024. The EA is available to everyone with major updates taking place throughout 2023.

[@mohdhidayat1412]

thank god i follow ur channel.

[@Zodia195]

Okay so question, Sarah. If Spiders aren't a thing anymore, then what about that one item they drop that you use to make fish bait?

[@CalicoShoes]

Also the crafting recipe for bait has changed and doesn’t include spider fur anymore :)

[@adngel]

I did not consider in avoid the combat, when I see monsters I pick the sword and jump over them before they see me... @_@ R.I.P. the way to sell bugs for >200c and fishes >180c :( , (I discovered that this last day before the update. Q_Q) I guess I will have to fill the greenhouse with strawberries, they looks to be selling good. $.$

[@vivalattena]

Thank you so much for the information! A lot to learn from this list. By the way, I need to ask, have you made any progress with the Fire Giant quest? I can't seem to get into the Fire Mine(?) to continue the quest.

[@FayeBDragon]

The Fire Mine isn't implemented in the game yet.

[@vivalattena]

@@FayeBDragon man I knew it :( thank you for the info!

[@youngherr3596]

Can anyone else confirm? Is the KO time now 1am instead of 2am? Been testing it out, and i have been KOing at 1am.

[@sarahsunstone]

It's 1am

[@morganr6520]

Hey girl!!! Thanks so much for this video! Would you say this is a good time to restart??

[@sarahsunstone]

Aww my pleasure! Unless you’re super attached to your farm and items, I think it would be a great time! I know many people are doing just that! I just have too many items I want to keep for streams, but if I wasn’t creating content I would restart!

[@motterich27]

Did you get the Titan arum after the spring update? I didn't fing a single one during fall within the current version 😢

[@faimynth6030]

I do have a question relating to fighting Is there a reason to even fight in the mines? Do the enemies drop anything useful?

[@NadMia27]

2:25 YESSSS!!!!

[@sarahsunstone]

[@laurasamericandream]

wait.. if there´re no more spiders in the mine (great thing!!) how do i get the spider fur or leg or whatever it is for my temple offering !?

[@O-D-X]

I didn't realize the enemies weren't aggressive, since as soon as I saw them, I attacked wanting to get the jump on them. Nice to know that I can avoid them for the most part unless I want to level up combat.

[@sarahsunstone]

@@sumireravenclaw8034 if you need help understanding the behaviour of the different monsters, I would recommend watching this video!

[@sarahsunstone]

Yes!! That’s a good point too, that to level up combat you would need to engage. But I also think they will implement other methods, like traps, in the future, and I wonder if this would count toward our combat skills!!

[@sweetshoppe]

[@JulianPancaUtama666]

Fermented Goat Chesee from? Where we can get it?

[@suzannastivell2566]

Sarah I have just tried doing earth cavern and only managed to get to level 15. Level 16 is very narrow with 4 or 5 monsters and is impossible to get passed them so I am back to waiting for peaceful mode 😭

[@FayeBDragon]

Usually if you run quickly past they may follow but then forget about you. She showed this on one of her streams.

[@mothermayhem4154]

the rare artisan goods are completable??? wait how do i get goats and pigs then?? for the cheese and truffles specifically??

[@MollyHuffle]

Ahhhh I can’t wait until they release this game on switch. It gives me something to look forward to this or next year.

[@zephyrgirl9823]

Manual cooking is totally bugged for me now unfortunately since the update. -___-

[@grangranzulaski1084]

Love the fight if you want part. The Monsters are some of the best floating blobs my favorite.

[@DayNja1423]

im stuck i cant find any fruits at sams grocer and all the others that sell dont want to speak to me

[@NoBetterNamesLeft]

Do you have any idea how I can get a slice of cheese out of a cheese wheel? I need it for the altar and my cheese machine only makes the wheels, but I need a slice of it :(

[@belaralia]

You need a small milk to make the slice of cheese.

[@NoBetterNamesLeft]

@@belaralia Oh... that makes sense! Thank you so much!

[@belaralia]

@@NoBetterNamesLeft you're very welcome!

[@danielsanchez3169]

I have a problem with the Ax, I put it to improve with the blacksmith before the update and now it doesn't appear anywhere. I don't know what case to get it back, any advice?😥

I accidentally put an egg (not sure duck or chicken) into a mason jar and it made salted eggs!

[@sarahsunstone]

It works with both types of eggs!!

[@AnaFlor11]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@LexxiKitty]

I'm a bit late to the coral Island party but... Is the game worth it with so much content still missing? Just wondering, not hating!!

[@sarahsunstone]

It depends on your preference! In terms of Early Access titles, Coral Island has far more than even some full release games have to offer, but I also know many prefer waiting until the full game is ready to experience it all at once! I personally enjoy appreciating every little thing along the way, taking things slow, and getting hype for the updates. Definitely pick which will give you the most enjoyment in the long term, because this isn’t a game to miss!! hope this helps.

[@FaenumVena]

you say there is always plenty of grass, but there isnt. im in my second year and no new grass grew in spring and when i put starters down, they didnt spread and the animals ate it all. im not going to be able to make hay for winter because of this.

[@sarahsunstone]

Bug report so they can fix it!

[@FaenumVena]

@@sarahsunstone so it is a bug? I wasnt sure if it was or not

[@sarahsunstone]

@@FaenumVena I believe the grass on your farm should spread once you plant it. So if it’s not doing that, then I imagine this is a bug!

[@Evansgr123]

did they nerf the money for bug jerky? I swear I used to make a lot of money from that, but only 25 per jerky now.

[@FayeBDragon]

Unfortunately they did.

[@grassina3]

Seems like they’ve nerfed so many money making strategies now >.

[@jaijay25]

no one has mentioned how bad this update is, with the nerf on selling stuff you earn nothing from cooking

[@eromero27]

Mine because unplayable

[@urbenz7676]

Play life after

I think yall are just prentending to be scared of spiders at this point as someone who is deathly scared of them the spiders in this game did not bother me in the slightest creepy feeling sure but to complain common be better
