Clay-forming the Essentials - Let's Play Vintage Story 1.18 Part 3

[@misticmaze]

I've never heard of this game till now. I'm enjoying the series so far. Thanks for introducing me to it. 😁

[@ifishcat]

right, drifter upgrades with crawling, and rock throwing, fun stuff :)

[@HostageMax]

Plot twist. It's not a bear, it's a wide wolf!

[@skotdude]

My favourite series of yours! Love your work!

[@GGBeyond]

Thanks!

Just discovered this game last night and have been enjoying watching your playthrough during my downtime. I appreciate that even though you have experience with the game that you're explaining certain aspects as they're relevant (ie crop rotation). Looking forward to watching through the rest over time, and to probably picking the game up myself soon too!

[@gigglingsociopathh2911]

Hope your doing good. I know how much many people dislike panning in games. You might like it a little more if you try doing so using bone soil. The name of the block should be changed along with texture. Think of bone soil as area people would leave belonging, in wicker basket of hanging on a wall, etc. Over time dirt, and items that degrade in those spots. I get the creators where thinking kind of in mind of archology site, dig small spot and shift. In this case bonie (bone.. ) soil. I am just glade the creators are not requiring of us to use, paint brushes, tooth bushes, and other tools for excavation of block.

[@GGBeyond]

IIRC it was originally implemented as a "last resort" in case you couldn't find any surface copper. As annoying as it is, I'm actually glad they implemented it since it means you can still advance to the copper age even if you're unlucky with the world gen.

[@gigglingsociopathh2911]

@@GGBeyond wow, I just got your message. It's funny, there so many times, you will pause when coming across bony soil. It's a stern glare in my mind.. like saying. No.. I'm not panning. Can't make me. Lol.

[@Terrorkittens]

Oh god! Drifter Diving Team: In case you weren't already having enough nightmares! 😭

[@benben-fz2es]

Bears are great source for leathers, yet hard to acquire without giving your own skin to the bear 😂. Panning is ok but actually you need either one surface copper or 60 bits to make the prospecting pick.

[@slarzyer]

one surface copper deposit may often not be enough for an anvil..2-3 are normally required...even with 2-3 you do not have much left to maintain any renewable copper needs... but panning also yields silver and gold usable to make black bronze from the start.....

[@vapor4441]

Chalk early on is a great find. You can go ahead and make the best backpacks if you hunt some pelts.

[@vapor4441]

Well you need a saw too for barrels..almost forgot

[@slarzyer]

@@vapor4441 you can find and use barrels at some traders

[@bobstaples1735]

Glad to see you are back to this series. Love your content! Question: Since there are fish in the game, is there a fishing mechanic or do they expect you to jump in there and chase them with a pointy stick?

[@GGBeyond]

There might be a fishing rod being added later, but this might just be a "first pass" on water creatures.

[@bobstaples1735]

@@GGBeyond Hope it isn't too grindy as a mechanic, especially if fish isn't the best sustenance

[@slarzyer]

atm i believe the fish are just there to add a simple "spear fishing" way to get a bit of starter food.... if you find a small water source that is not near alot of other water....many fish often will there...digging a trench or pit can be a simple way to trap the fish and auto kill them...just visit it from time to time and harvest the drops

9:58 LOL

[@Dew82222]

at 13:40 I think you can see 2 pine trees with resin on them

[@abdufattohxamidullayev4939]

amazing version and amazing gameplay

[@gobs379]

I'm a bit behind so you may already know this, but the jug is for carrying water to drink.

[@slarzyer]

also juices and alcohols

My man said "oh fuck zababababa"

[@sandnoodle8964]

at 13:42 you run by what im think might be some suevite and meteoric iron bits. haven't caught up on the series yet so maybe you already found it. sorry if you don't like people pointing things like that out.

[@PyrrhP]

I've noticed a TON of vertical holes the past few updates. I was hoping the world gen in 1.18 would alleviate that. :(

[@slarzyer]

the "pits" are part of the dangers like wolves and bears

[@Kova-ow2en]

9 days equaling a year is honestly depressing to me. I don’t know why I find that sad.

[@HypnotiqueAKAHypi]

He meant 9 days are in each month...

[@newbiegaming6090]

​@@HypnotiqueAKAHypiStill way too quick to my liking, but at least is a bit more manageable.

[@uncolored2060]

0:35 no, it's "stupidity last"

[@codyosborne8926]

You forgot to make the Crock-Pot!

[@craiggeorge4647]

Instead of trying to remember where everything is can’t you just mark it on the map? Or this game there is no map?

[@GGBeyond]

Map and coordinates are not available on wilderness survival settings.

[@AdaTheWatcher]

@@GGBeyond mind if I ask what the different game modes are in this game? Just recently found it but can't seem to find a lot of information online.

[@paranormalPostIt]

i was doing clay forming the long way this whole time,, i didnt know you could duplicate layers 😭

[@YggdrasSoftGaming]

I find myself always yelling at people who do these sorts of lets plays. Like... when you were doing molds... you kept skipping over the most important ones for metalworking, the crucibles, without them the rest are useless.... Also, the drifters have been crawling since at least 1.16, maybe as early as 1.15. Just surprised you hadn't experienced that till now.

[@creepersjeepers8656]

but he DID make the crucibles...

[@GGBeyond]

It doesn't matter what order I do the clay products in since they're not usable until they're fired in the pit kilns anyway. The drifters started crawling in 1.17. You can confirm that in my 1.16 permadeath playthrough as well as in the patch notes.

[@KittyGamer1514]

11:40, no, it didn't, you just didn't notice it due to you focusing on navigating and eating.

[@tehNashty]

Getting struck by lightning is a thing. Have not been struck myself yet.

[@slarzyer]

i have seen one player get stuck....it did 6.5 bars of damage at 35 hp max

[@mijaildolgay840]

you can do a search TerraPreta tutorial? QuQ

[@potatoballs7988]

18:16 lol dude

[@TizonaAmanthia]

what? only a single year? well, let's see how far you can get. I started about the same time, with 3 friends, it's now mid march, and we decided to move base, but we're well into the iron age. how come you only want to play one year? you like the early game?

[@GGBeyond]

One in-game year is roughly 180 parts. In that time, I have steel tools, 2 generations of animals, and stone paths connecting my base to nearby traders completely lit with lanterns. The only thing I don't have is anything that takes more than one year like a fruit orchard and alcohol.

[@TizonaAmanthia]

@@GGBeyond ahhh, I guess if you REALLY know what you're doing, it only takes a year! I"m still confused by the steel production method the ingame guide is...confusing. something about COFFINS?! wth?

[@slarzyer]

@@GGBeyond the fruit tress found in wild can produce in the 1st year....you just wont be able to benefit from any replanted fruit branches

[@leinades1]

Those rifts are everywhere, jeeez! Can you do something about them or do they at least dissappear on their own after a while?

[@Jus_Joj]

They do go away, but not for a while. They added a tool called a Rift Dispeller you can make, that helps you to, y'know. Dispell them.

[@vapor4441]

They do disappear with time. Also they can’t spawn in lite areas

[@uncolored2060]

3:55 you Americans... getting confused over your own time system 🤣

[@CaJunCharm]

We don't use that time system here in the U. S.

[@uncolored2060]

@@CaJunCharm you don't use 5 PM, 3 AM, etc.?

[@CaJunCharm]

@@uncolored2060 We do but it's displayed as 5am or 3pm. In game it was displayed as "military time" or 24 he clock. Given the fact we aren't taught that, it's difficult for some of us to translate 24hr clock to 12hr clock time.

this game requires an attention span too big for me to handle overstimulation is no longer a thing
