I think the space craft would be more interesting, since it poses more unique problems that need to be solved, particularly with the stipulations that your main craft is only allowed to reenter the atmosphere to go through portals and you aren't allowed to use third person camera for surface level scouting. That way you'll have to do things like employ autonomous drones to gather and transport resources or to provide eyes on the ground. A spaced base run would also be more divergent from your normal tactics and it might offer the opportunity to use equipment you normally ignore, like warp systems or huge missiles.

[@Berathan-dnd]

The spacecraft dosen't need to be the vehicle that enters the portal. You could create a small remote controlled craft that goes down to trigger the portal which then either goes back to the mothership or stays in atmosphere.

I think we've seen a few sub/partially submerging craft over the years so going for a space focus would be nice (think death lasers from space type theme), perhaps you could switch focus as you go along ei start with subs and once you feel comfortable(resource wise) go for space.

Space is also arguably a bit less cheesy than submarines.

[@mryourfuckingmom3308]

problem is as he stated coming back in orbit to go through the portals, I think space is better suited to a "cheezy" campaign run, one where Lath here just decimates from the beginning.

[@theaureliasys6362]

You know what? I'm very ok with the cheddar. Just try to look at everything through either the submarine or taking a sneakpeak via attaching your camera to some ordinance. That way the fighting becomes more of a puzzle.

What would be really fun is a craft that sticks in space until combat, then dives underwater and decimates from below. Like a submarine shaped massive missile diving onto its enemy’s from the heights, eating at them from the depths……

[@Cyyanss]

Also, maybe you could make a large pole with a camera on it, attached to a spin block. That could flip up and function as a periscope perhaps, which would get past the concerns you have with cheesy camera work interfering with immersion. Not sure if that’s feasible, but as a long time lover of this series would be really curious to see if the idea works.

[@Cyyanss]

Maybe build it out of the decorative steam pipes, you could place some detection stuff on it too, which would look amazing potentially.

[@ZeruelZarkona]

Having a laser based spaceship would be pretty interesting. It would be a challenge to balance size and mobility, as the lasers would need to be big enough that they reach and can do damage, but small enough that the craft can move and go through the portals when needed.

[@theoreticalexistence9630]

8:12 Every submarine that's ever been made and actually used in all of history has been able to surface, surfacing to get a better view of your surroundings should not be against the rules as a sub.

[@Monsi_in_germany]

also every submarine thats been made needed to surface to refill oxygen supply

[@jadynhax]

Honestly, Lathrix, while I love the sub play, I think it'd be a lot more fun to see a spacecraft playthrough of FtD Adventure Mode, namely because (as you mentioned) it'd be a bit more logistically difficult to do (making it more fun for us viewers to watch you puzzle it out), but also because you kinda did subs in the _last_ Adventure Mode playthrough (or at least _one_ of the previous ones), so this would be a bit more unique. With that said, I'm just happy to see this coming back because I enjoy it so much, so just have fun with whichever option you choose and I'll be fine lmao

[@ydrahkcin]

Technically just you need to go through with your seat active right? So you could have a spacecraft with a massive winch to get you down to the level and go through the portals.

[@apolloaerospace7773]

Begin with sub, go to a higher difficulty and drag your enemies into the Depths, and change to a fully operational spacebattleship later.

[@natural20_85]

More fun with FtD, I missed these. Stick with the sub and add a proper periscope. That way you can rely less on third-person and make things a little more immersive. You can mount a camera on a telescoping pole in FtD, right?

[@ydrahkcin]

You can just do a cheese run. They are fun to watch as long as you dont make every series cheese (which you definitely never really do) So you can see how effective a mine sub you can make. See how undetected you can go and how many kills you can get as easily as possible.

[@My_initials_are_O.G.cuz_I_am]

The end goal should be a space submarine. Something that could launch out of water like the Sea Dragon rocket concept (And in that size range)

I would love to see a spacecraft, mainly because I have never been able to make one myself, seeing you build one and deal with its own unique challenges would be quite interesting!

[@arbitratedshan2783]

Yes, crafty adventures! I have two ideas for your vehicle design whihch I think would be cool, and possibly add a small amount of "balance" to the craftyness. The first idea is to build your main vehicle with the intent that you can move around, access most areas of it. This is more aesthetic design, but making room for your character takes resources and volume away from other features such as glorious armor and weapons and engines. Plus, it can look cool, and you can make different command chairs to hide in different parts of the ship for different battles. Or whenever you felt like sitting in a new chair. The second idea is to have a focus on minions, small buddy craft! Each one being unique to each other, these little buddies can operate under AI control or be manually piloted. They would have unique weapons (a cannon buddy, a laser buddy, a railgun buddy... There are options here!) and the buddies would be your primary way to fight the enemy, while the mothership (mother-submarine? Space Station?) has fewer weapons but can support the buddies.

[@travisorich7599]

Exciting video as always, definitely keep the sub idea ( not caught up at all). Looking forward to catching up on the rest of your From The Depths Content 😎👍👍

[@akiamini4006]

[@garrettdriscoll9364]

A submarine that can become a spacecraft, the ultimate transformation that holds all the cheese

[@SephirothRyu]

A submarine is just a more water and pressure-resistant spacecraft. A spacecraft is just a submarine that doesn't need water to move and can be tossed into space somehow.

[@thealicemonster9217]

Love it! Tyvm for more FTD content. I am totally cool with the cheese tbh. Also I like it when you do 3ed person, makes it easier to watch tbh. Really a sub and a spaceship are very similar but you seemed to like the idea of space better. imo I think you should make what makes you happy cause it will make you want to play more hence more content. No silly rules, just have fun! Ooh and MISSILES! I love Missiles too! Do more Missiles lol

[@cosmictheaddict]

Here's an idea make a recourse colector on pistons hidden behind a custom hatch in the hull

[@TheToric]

Two things for seeing resource zones: piston and camera based periscope, and turning the water transparency up.

[@jj1marksman]

The first person perspective of you hunting the marauder was really cool.

[@ryokkeno]

Mines are good fun on a sub, your plenty deep to avoid a lot, and once you get the resources to coat your sub and add a decoy it'll be a challenge for anything to hit you until later. If your not sure on your camera you could always add a cheap vtol to the back of your sub to act as a spotter, youve made plenty of cheap drones over the year. Although it will be a target and the wireless will make you an easier target as well.

[@courtjester2564]

Hey Lathrix, I would love to see a spacecraft in this series.

[@WaywardLone]

[@CrabBell]

Suggestion for getting spacecraft working: Drop pod raised back to space by harpoon torpedo, held in space by dock on main vehicle, basically armoured chair and A.I. When above desired target, can be used to quickly capture on enter portals, which may otherwise be infeasible.

[@maverickgerrior6729]

I'd love to see some sort of Deepwater Submarine (Adventuremode is perfect for subs!) with some sort of "docking bay" where it builds nuclear-torpedo subvehicles!

If not, a gigantic space beam seems fun.

[@i_am_jarvistm7220]

If he keeps it as a sub, it will help inspire upgrades on my adventure mode craft, which rarely gets attacked, and keeps itself underwater at all times. Periscope resource gatherers are good in most situations. Keeping the resource gatherers on a set of pistons can let the main sub stay under while allowing resource gathering. The periscope can also have other uses, such as radar for ai, being used for decoy, and obviously, a periscope to look around with. My sub sits at about 50 m below the surface,but can manually be forced into a deep dive.
