Deepwater Guard Carriers (Falkenheim, Tortuga and Barracuda) From the Depths: Most Wanted!

[@tandemcharge5114]

The Falkenheim is like the starter carrier benchmark for the very starter players to teach players of AA, meanwhile the rest are there to test if you've built a true combat capable craft

[@mechastophiles2118]

Imagine a DWG carrier launching Flying Squirrels

[@why8410]

they should call it the squirel den

[@notverysmart4096]

Don't give the Devs idea's

[@anamerican1054]

Do the people know that the background music is very close to Led Zeppelin 3, That's the way. Gotta love Jimmy Page. The whole album is great with some different 12 string guitar riffs.

[@blackegret666]

I only know the Barracuda by name from an old video that was made a while back. For being a starter faction, the DWG are surprisingly diverse.

[@dodobird679]

They're the first faction everyone fights, so a lot of people end up being inspired A few updates back, the devs had to massively cull the list of DWG ships since it was starting to get to hundreds of different designs for ships alone

[@mammyaondiciple3570]

Honestly since they changed the map starting location I almost never worry about the DWG anymore dealing with White Flayers and Lightning hoods immediately makes whatever the Deep Water Guard throws at me is massively out matched in material and tech if I can afford a massive laser satalite after capturing 2-3 LH ships honestly the game is easy till you get to twin guard or scarelt Dawn and their lasers I usually just farm the DWG now by setting a single cruiser to farm them for their mats particularly if I use AP or EMP munitions

[@dodobird679]

@@mammyaondiciple3570 fun fact, map starting location is determined by difficulty; playing on the easiest one puts the player in the original spawn location, in the corner

Hey Borderwise, I would like to present you a challenge! The mission is to beat my custom campaign: The Caravonian Rebellion on very hard (not that it makes any difference), but the catch? Your ships may NOT have any secondary armament. For example, your cruiser may ONLY have its primary armament. Which means no missile/gun/laser/PAC secondaries. Defensive armament (LAMs, CIWS, interceptors) are included. If your ship has defensive armament, it may ONLY be armed with them. Capital grade ships (battleships, supercarriers) may have ONE type of secondary armament of the same caliber to each other.

[@BorderWise12]

Ooooh, interesting! I'll have a look into that campaign, see if I'm ready for it. 😛

[@ApertureGaming011]

@@BorderWise12 Oh, keep in mind that the Main weapons (should they be APS or CRAMs) must be the same caliber! Also, since the CC is designed to be easy, it shouldn't be a problem for you

[@electrohalo8798]

I love these designs, i usualy manage to capture a tortuga most of the time if the DWG spawns one in, they are useful suport ships if you capture one

[@stefan4365]

The Barracuda was my benchmark for so long. Back in the early days.

[@matthewyang7893]

Makes me want to make a white flayers themed BB with the fifth seasons railguns. Evisceration seems like a great name :) unfortunately I am brand new to the game and I'm just dreaming give me a couple of hundred of hours

[@sangeili76]

be patient , i'm sure you'll manage don't be ashamed to retrofit or inspire yourself from existing craft. that help a lot

[@williamagan3506]

Taking big jumps and trying new things is the best way to learn in this game

[@matthewyang7893]

@@williamagan3506 Well first of all how do you make a ship outside of the tutorial dock thingy?

I love and miss both weird and wonderful even if its just a few weeks, could pick up more and it'll be interesting as any of them and will probably stay in to watch, even workshop items will do and it'll be interesting even at that point. It'd be selfish for me to say this but Idk, could you pick up my turtlelord in the workshop? I don't know any other turtles that is a turtle with a structure on top and an interesting use of weaponry, figured it would be fun to cover

[@wardop123]

Love the beginner content. I got FTD a couple months ago and love your channel but everything I make is an utter disaster

[@sangeili76]

don't worry we all started here . take your time , inspire yourself from existing craft . after 600 hours my submarines are still trying to fly in outer space xD

[@JanVGH]

Uh.. Dediblade not a thing anymore? I haven't been in the game for nearly a year. I should revisit some of my designs thanks that change and finally finish my super-cruiser project. Lol

[@BorderWise12]

Yup, dediblades are being phased out.

[@lagrangepoint9386]

I've yet to see any of those, because since I got the game a week ago, I've spent 2 hours total in the campaign and 6 days designing a cruiser that can take out a Crossbones and a Maelstrom. Finished with the cruiser yesterday and can confidently say that even though it doesn't have two AI's, there is no kill quite like MASSIVE OVERKILL. A puny Barracuda won't stand a chance.

[@littletimelord2755]

If you had waited just a bit longer, this video would have had Jacobs palace. Great video though

[@jasonm1691]

Neter campaign idea You ha e only one ship no restrictions on size shape or anything and only it can capture Territory but you are allowed buildings/vehicles that don't move

[@doritosama8854]

Do you need to build detection systems for second ai or will it use the main ai’s detection

[@BorderWise12]

Detection is shared, so you don't need a secondary set. It is helpful to have trackers for the secondary AI, though.

[@hondacivic8222]

this video is gonna be out of date soon, there's a new dwg carrier being added in stable

[@kahlzun]

How do you get the camera to track things?

[@BorderWise12]

Ctrl + Capslock. 👍

[@danieldeak9141]

Oh yea, theese things caused me quite the headache early game. Luckily i have developed a 4 gunned 20 mil AA gun firing a mix of proxy frag and sabot rounds and now they are merely a nuisance

[@sangeili76]

Well in doubt , More Dakka ? Funny how More gun is often the solutions with DWG , their fault that their craft are made out of cardboard :D

[@hypernovamkvi715]

The falkenheim is not to bad the Tortuga and barracuda however scare me

[@greankung1301]

Maybe some godly CV should be good for DEV

[@the_barrel_mann5100]

1:37 what?

[@BorderWise12]

Yup, dediblades are being phased out, starting with AlphaTest.

[@the_barrel_mann5100]

@@BorderWise12 When will this take place, if it hasn't already. I don't think I could find props in my game. if Dediblades are out, what will replace them for dediblade subs?

[@littletimelord2755]

I think the devs are making a push for all propulsion needing room to function, so when removing and replacing dediblades on a craft, keep in mind the probably won’t be able to be stuffed in tight spaces anymore. However, while dediblades are being replaced, any craft already using dediblades gets to keep them, you just can’t make more dediblades. So if you are worried about dediblades being replaced by the new blocks entirely, at least for now they are not.

[@littletimelord2755]

So basically, if it’s already using dediblades, the dediblades are still there, but you can’t build a new thing using dediblades.
