fun fact: an eclipse on a moon in real life is usually caused by the planet the moon orbits obscuring the sun causing a lunar eclipse, so I would presume the "moon" you talked about is actually the planet Embrion orbits blocking the sun, thought i'd share this very specific fact lol

[@jayman1462]

since planets are so much bigger i guess it makes sense why eclipses happen so much

[@sheffaustin]

true, didn’t look at the eclipse from the moon POV like I should have! too planet-pilled lol BUT that opens up a whole new can of worms… what planets are we orbiting in-game? 🙃 to what planets do Embrion and the other moons belong to?

[@bliss5297]

Embrion is probably the planet that is eclipsing the moon at the start of the run. so the moon austin was on was the 5th moon of the planet Embrion. usually for naming moons of planets, they give the moon a number (ex: planet_name - number) the number signifying either the number in orbit of the planet, or the number on which place the moon has been found.

[@esmin2400]

I feel like the entity itself isn’t OP but the sheer amount of them that just crowd the ship if you’re there for a while is a little too much

[@sheffaustin]

I agree! The old bird is super fun to play around too I think this moon is fine the way it is though, it’s a reminder that Lethal Company isn’t supposed to be taken so seriously and it’s lore-accurate to the hopelessness of working for the company, lol

[@esmin2400]

@@sheffaustin I love that aspect of it for sure. The moon’s design is sick and the old bird is totally one of the coolest designs. It’ll be interesting to see how the counter play develops! It’s nice to see more challenge that isn’t totally beginner unfriendly by being on every moon 💀

[@Skizzors]

If you go far right for a little while you can find an area where you can clip under the map. You can safely walk under the map until you reach the ships where you can sprint jump onto the ladder and climb up. Sadly can’t take any large items this way as you won’t be able to climb the ladder

[@bugdestroyer1258]

I went to it eclipsed and made it to main but i got trapped in the corner from all the rockets knockback

[@melon9933]

for the eclipse to happen, it can also be the planet that the moon is orbiting. If you're on the planet it would be a lunar eclipse, but for the moon it's a solar eclipse. Lunar eclipse's are more common cus planets and bigger and so cover up the sun more commonly than the moon perfectly covering up the sun for the planet.

Giants just have zero counterplay that isn't a finite resource, they annoy me so much

[@catpoke9557]

@@TheSilly6403 Exactly!! You can counterplay the robots even if you haven't spent a cent and nobody is in the ship. Giants? Somebody has to ping the radar in the ship, and to begin with you need to have a radar booster at all. And you have to carry it around with you, wasting space. Robots? Just takes practice and you can dodge them. I actually ran directly beside one earlier while carrying bottles, and I'm pretty sure I was one shot away from death. I lived! If it were a giant I would have absolutely died.

[@QuantumEclipse09]

went to eclipsed embrion and lived to tell the tale. my first time on that moon too, sometimes you just gotta yolo

[@pbroski92]

I guess a viable counter play is the jet pack. Getting from ship to location in the shortest amount of time, leaving it outside and making multiple trips outrunning the giants

[@jetkirby3981]

They fly

[@mistywhisp]

I’ve used a jet pack on the planet, and I totally agree. Our strat was somebody’s in facility while the other carries loot back to the ship in just like 5 seconds, and you don’t get detected.

[@sheffaustin]

yeah jetpack solves pretty much every outdoor issue in the game, even with the flying Old Birds, and I like getting one whenever I can on my regular runs I’m trying out non-Jetpack strategies though since you typically can’t afford a jetpack during an ironman challenge, and that’s the main context that I’ll find myself on this moon to begin with (will also need to save up for a jetpack on Embrion only runs)

Another day of Sheff Austin carrying the Lethal Company community! W vid as always cant wait to see how you survive!

[@SlightlyAboveAverag3]

My friend and I made up a game for when we don’t make quota, where we just go to embrion and see how long you can run around the old birds. Record is 5:00 pm. You learn some crazy techniques on how to survive then, and it’s much easier than you’d think. They are HUGE idiots and their aim is suprisingly bad, so if you zig zag just right while it’s shooting at you it will often miss, also running around a large rock until it de-agros works when there’s only one or two sometimes.

[@killerninja4416]

you can watch The AI Behind Old Birds video it explains how it works and it might let you learn more about it

[@unknown20005]

bro was like whats this ship here huh must be nothing imagine if they just shoot down the ship before it even fully descends

[@vinmet]

The crying baby is never fitting when you see them XD I have only played artifice so far, and that was hell and a half.

[@crewincorporated]

It’s possible for the goat

[@suut]

i think a good balancing factor would be if old birds were able to be stunned by the terminal for a short time because as they are right now they're a bit too strong esp in large numbers, and taking apparatus out should, like doors inside, stop you from disabling them as well

[@zbychxd2116]

I actually survived eclipsed Embrion, and even brought some loot back to the ship, oldbirds are tricky to get around, but I usually go straight to the entrance and avoid the rockets

[@thedoglovinggamer5825]

9:14 Bro heard that and didn’t hear his friend say anything after and thought he might’ve been still alive!😂 12:43 It did do something.

[@deathi]

hopefully old birds will have a high power level to only make 1 spawn, or atleast have it to where it goes for one attack cycle before having to have a cooldown phase before attacking again to balance it

[@axolotlgaming9144]

the power level is 3 thumpers,bunker spiders,giants, jester all have power of 3 3 is the max

@@SAmaryllis Is it that you think the vibe is wrong with this new update? Lethal Company is about a bunch of cloned idiots in orange jumpsuits collecting scrap for a cosmic horror in the ruins of a frontier star system. Not only is humanity doing pretty badly, but most of these planets (and moons) have been involved in at least one major interplanetary war, and the remnants of this can be found on multiple moons: Jesters, Coilheads, and the Old Birds. This is the vibe Zeekers is staying with: cosmic horror space exploration in industrial complexes with equally horrid monsters.
