The fall damage increase feels brutal this patch- I’ve died walking off the assurance pipe, and walking off the usual low ledge on titan right next to the ship.

[@uaQt]

did they increase it even more??? i thought the new amount was perfect

[@Wurps]

Interesting, looks like there's a bit less of a safe height

[@Mugenman88]

That was a bug, it was hotfixed an ahour after the update dropped

[@realpatty]

@@Mugenman88thank god it was getting me a ton too

[@Glaceonics]

An hour after it dropped? I streamed today for 5 hours and the insane fall damage persisted.@@Mugenman88

The diagonal rooms make it look so different even though its a small change Edit: Dam thats a lot of likes

[@nguyenphamkhoi4472]

it gives me backrooms vibe, since the randomess of the facility was hard enough, having these kind of open entryway just make it much more horrifying

[@ignacioduplan8422]

i like the change, if not everything just becomes redundant

[@PsychoPanda9000]

The diagonal hallways and big boiler/circular hallways are so subtle but are a perfect addition to the usually bland cross hall spamming

[@EmiWi]

the diagonals feel off and slightly uncanny even, a great change

[@mahks-pectith3179]

@@EmiWi give heavy liminal space vibes especially with the way they were showcased in the video

[@dil4404]

The bracken being 1v1 able is crazy. I already thought it was surprising that killing them became viable with the shotgun last patch, and now even a shovel can take them out

[@Jonas-Seiler]

Makes me think, if the Bracken is apparently something you’re supposed to be able to get rid of with some skill or preparation, why are Coil-Heads entirely invulnerable?

[@GrimlandCS]

@@Jonas-Seiler Yeahh, I hope coilhead becomes more manageable. It's kind of unfun at the moment, and feels super unfair in solo

[@Isaax]

@Jonas-Seiler right? Especially with Coilheads having a much lower power rating & being able to spawn multiple times, way too many times, on the same map

[@Syntex366]

@@Jonas-Seilergiven they’re made of concrete I get the shovel not working, but I should definitely be able to lure them onto a mine.

[@theguywhoistheman1344]

I'm glad they are making the more powerful mobs actually killable, it was always made the game unfun and unfair how brackens, already being able to one shot you and enrage at the slightest mistake, also have immunity to flash grenades and are basically only killable with zap guns. It works with Jester and Ghost Girl because they are brutal and only encounter on the hardered maps, and even they give you a huge amount of chances to avoid them, unlike bracken who straight up requires you to tear off the gameplay every minute to check behind you

[@BleddynsStudio]

I saw the patch notes, I am surprised you didn’t mention the increased Coilhead footstep sound distance. Should hopefully make them more manageable.

[@sebastianznguyen7481]

they're able to be heard in time for someone to do a 180 where as before you had to be already aware there was one or else you'd be very likely to die

[@batdogduke]

idk if this has been noted but apparently it's now possible for rooms to be fully closed off from the rest of the map. About an hour ago I was playing with friends and realized that, when I entered a fire escape, I was put in a room with a spore lizard and snare flea with no other way out. There were no locked doors / open doors, just a simple L shaped room where the only way out was through the escape. The Spore Lizard ai was having a tough time dealing with this as it slid around the walls, and the snare flea was hard to avoid.

[@Wurps]

Hmm, there was an issue in the beta of update 47 where players were shown different versions of the map, perhaps it sliding through the walls was actually a door for the host?

[@greakin9916]

@@Wurps Yea I had the bug today, today someone was walking in mid air and floating, i thought they were hacking but its probably just the bug

[@rianthreeden]

oh hey Duke lol fancy seeing you here.

you can kill a nutcracker just by crouching?? what?? you made it look so easy omg thank you for the video! very informative :D

[@IDyn4m1CI]

I've been telling people about this strat for weeks, yet no one ever believes me lol

[@Envy1359]

Wait till that gets patched in the future.

[@lGhostWolfel]

The nutcracker is one thing but just straight up 1v1ing a bracken with no flashbangs is something I thought to be an impossibility til now, 10/10 will try and probably die in front of my friends

[@fireking6308]

I think it should be tbh@@Envy1359

[@lordderpington8021]

Thanks wurps, I wish my friends were more into this game. Funny considering one of them actually gifted it to me and after playing about 15 hours he has yet to play with me.

[@Wurps]

That coward

[@GrimlandCS]

Have you asked him to play or are you just waiting on him to ask you?

[@corvus418]

Or you could ask...

[@Da_B]

That’s the only downside of this game, if you’re completely into the game, but your friends just don’t want to play it anymore/at the moment

[@mogullll]

dude is speedrunning the announcements big thank you as always wurps [on the lethal company grind]

[@moabmauler_]

fall damage has also been buffed, you now take 50 damage from jumping from the first landing to the ship on titan instead of none

[@Mugenman88]

That was a bug, it was hotfixed an hour after the update dropped

[@wimbledofy]

@@Mugenman88 The amount of damage was a bug, but fall damage was buffed.

[@bailfire2741]

its now 30@@Mugenman88

[@Xenorvya]

@@wimbledofy If the dev will buff this he should nerf how fast time goes. There's barely any time to check inside the facilities or to see all monsters.

[@jitsauce522]

@@Xenorvya i think the time limit is good for a horror game, if you know your planets well enough youll always get into the facility by 9 or 11am at most, giving you more than half the day to explore the facility, that's usually good enough to at least find half the scrap thats there Its obviously inconsistent because it depends on how the monsters spawn, but part of the experience is finding ways to circunvent those problems

[@Snowguy-qs6pw]

I found out through gameplay that masked converting a player no longer kicks you off of terminal

[@Wurps]

Interesting, will have to revisit that

[@mr_beebo2465]

The thumper changes are amazing. Coming across them was almost always a death sentence for me but now they feel much more fun to escape from and fight

[@Envy1359]

In the update note, for some reason they included an image of Mickey Mouse (Steamboat Willie) standing in the darkness as if he’s in-game. Yes that version of Mickey is in public domain but I wonder if that might mean he might appear in the game as a new enemy? Unless he’s in the image as a joke.

[@GDCytosine]

I'd assume just a joke, but you never know...

You forgot to mention coilheads can now be heard running from farther away, making the requiered reaction time more lenient.

[@Wurps]

That only matters for when the coilhead spots you from a long distance which was already fair and reactable, it won't do anything for when they spot you at anything but long distance/spawn near you.

[@reste744]

Good reliable info as always, keep up the good work Wurps!

[@Wurps]

Thanks, will do!

[@WalkingExcursions]

Great video! I really liked the way you handled this difficult level. Your high level playing skills are impressive! I'm looking forward to the next video to see what happens next. Keep up the good work!

[@shazbotnanunanu3188]

That new room looks perfect for using the spray paint to mark the different directions the paths lead. Gonna be interesting to see what people do with it.

[@RazakelKairo1994]

Had an "outdoor-threat" day in Rend (haunted, dogs, mimics) playing solo and I have to say, I absolutely love the shovel now. Same with my experience with Thumpers, and yes, I tried the Bracken thing too! Scary stuff, but very nice for us shovel warriors. I didn't test enough but it seems targeting was also changed? Love the interior change. Facility was boring, cramped, but that variation alone makes it a bit more worthwhile. Any change to variation of interiors, be it existing ones or new interiors alltogether, was some of my no.1 things I wanted to see in the game. I might prefer Mansion for multiple (personal) reasons still though but at least its nice to see that facility gets some more funk.

[@aliensrock5199]

in playing with my friends, we encountered two different brackens when playing. it was on titan without an eclipse and there were no mod configurations that should allow for it to happen

[@InverseOfficial]

Nutcrackers were the one thing that did not need buffing imo

[@Whispernyan]

I mean they're like the only hostile enemy in the game you can completely avoid their wrath if you so please, this only really effects trying to get their shotgun which is fair you get one and you're set for life.

[@InverseOfficial]

@@Whispernyan it’s not the nutcracker alone that is a problem but rather when other enemies are around in combination. Having the nutcracker be that much more powerful just makes them more annoying to have around even if you can avoid them at a distance

[@Pinkooru]

@@Whispernyan Ah yes, an enemy that can completely lock you in one room for all eternity if they so desire. Want to escape, get away from their overpowered presence? Take a one hit kill to the back, or get kicked across the room You've got one second to break line of sight or you're dead, some maps that's simply not even possible. Them detecting mouse movements alone is overkill.

[@Whispernyan]

@@Pinkooru I don't see how that's possible, you only have to stay immobile while the eye is out, otherwise you're completely free to get away from them. In a world where every other monster can either one shot you after sneaking up on you, or requires an active chase to escape, yes I think the monster that requires you to sit still for a few seconds is fair game. Especially when these new buffs are designed specifically to activate against someone trying to kill them, if you haven't escaped the Nutcracker after it's started firing it's shots I don't think you were living regardless.

[@Pinkooru]

@@Whispernyan Idk about that bud, I've had many times where It'd immediately see me without the eye being out.

[@goopo5320]

Another good quick update video c: thank you wurps

[@KonariVibez]

We need an update that allows you to sell monster bodies at the company , that'd be super cool imo

[@randomzergling]

Ever played subnautica? I feel like fighting is better as self defense, giving monster bodies a price would make them less of something to be avoided and more something to be hunted.

[@sumuggum]

That would significantly change how the game is played. Instead of prioritizing safety and escape; the majority of players will be hunting them instead.

[@kayden2119]

[@lol-el1ru]

There's a mod that does a similar thing but instead of monster bodies you can sell the items they will drop after you killed them

I love how your maps are always monster graveyards during your combat examples

[@supremegrimmy]

pretty sure it also said in the change log that you can hear coil heads from slightly further away

[@NathanTruby]

I like how he basically added chaos company to the game as a special challenge mode.

[@Pickled_Poet]

Thumpers have always had a speed decrease going around corners, i think it was made that they are even slower (to combat the base speed increase)

[@TheBestOfFeatrob]

Was there a hidden change to bee aggro that anyone noticed? I feel like their range is slightly more varied. Had some close quarters encounters where 2 people passed without aggro, then the 3rd pulled them. Considered the possibility that their range might be a variable set to a ranged value per x frames. Didn't dig up the code tho

[@kagenxekkios8540]

seems like the negative weight teleporter speed glitch was patched as well, though not mentioned in the patch notes. the extension ladder one was on the notes, it seems as a side effect, the spam dropping an item for negative weight value was patched as well.

[@liam2175]

[@NFace23]

Bro someone please tell Zeekers that it is outrageous that nutcrackers can shoot you through closed doors

[@lightningcrush7795]

Bro, most of the skill I had at killing nutcrackers now does not work. You can literally kill them by crouching in front of them and hitting their feet with a shovel, removing most of the skill.

[@remideprez2323]

Now with the addition of the weekly challenges, aswell as the flourishing mod community and other stuff, this game make me think even more about Risk Of Rain 2 than before (where there is a weekly challenge, it's called "prismatic trials") I made me think about the guy called Cabbage who have a youtube channel, every week he upload a let's play of the weekly challenge, it could be something to think about for your channel maybe ? Maybe not every week but some videos of you and your friend "tryharding" the weekly challenge and see how much loot you can get could be fun

[@DBXNaato]

that last clip was so intense

[@Jonas-Seiler]

The giant change seems rather significant

[@emperormoist3851]

Can’t wait until update 50 when they plan to add much more entities and items

[@jojorobmum]

Is anyone having trouble with the stun grenade nutcracker kill? When I do the first shovel hit it immediately shoots, there isn't a small delay where the nutcracker walks a bit like at 0:37. I can try to time the first hit with the flash going off but there isn't enough duration for all 5 hits.

Both the thumper rework and shovel fixes I am extremely happy about. Very curious on why he gave the bunker spiders such a small speed boost when at low health tho

[@Whispernyan]

Considering it only takes a single mistake to be put into a very bad position with a Bunker Spider, the slightly increased speed seems more like something to incite panic and making a mistake then something meant to be threatening on it's own.

[@GDCytosine]

@@Whispernyan Yeah, especially for those that are already put on edge by spiders in the first place. I bring this up because my sibling has arachnophobia yet refuses to use arachnphobia mode so I'm curious how they will take this change

[@mk_jdilla]

I feel your sibling, It's way harder to play with the arachnophobia mode on since their whole body disappear but at the same time way harder to play without because of the phobia.@@GDCytosine

[@GDCytosine]

@@mk_jdilla For them, their two reasons are: 1. They don't want to break the immersion of the game, with what arachnophobia does. 2. They understand that it isn't real. They will get extremely freaked out and run away at the first sight of a spider but they can keep their composure afterwards unlike IRL spiders. They will tear Thumpers apart to no end but they will refuse to fight a spider

After my initial post on reddit for the nutcracker kill I was annoyed that it was insta patch but I also found a new way to avoid the kick for less experienced players, you can simply uncrouch, back off a bit, bait second shot and then go back under him, he cant kick while charging a shot so you have enough time to position yourself properly so you dont get kicked after the shot! Hard to explain in a message but I do it super consistently that way :)

[@shion126]

This update with all the changes make me both excited and absolutely terrified. But also genuine question tho, can nutcrackers do this new change before they saw a person, or this is a combat specific ability? Cause I'm not particularly fond of an enemy that turns me into a coil head and has a random chance to kill me by walking and or by the inability to react to that, killing me by them having noticed me in an awkward spot
