[@brunocavazza9004]

Tango, you could make a disk that have 100k range and says: "THE DUNGEON IS CALLING" and tell the hermits that is ready to use

[@UNOwen-lo6no]

I had the exact same idea! Telling the hermits some excuse to make as much of them be online at a time as possible, and then playing an epic opening announcement, that can be heard all around the server.

[@Maelwys]

[@julianthebagel2299]

You should add a couple disks in each system that make no sound as a break from the constant noise, (you wouldnt hear random ambient sounds every second in a real dungeon) if you addresed this later in the video im sorry i just wanted to make this comment before i forget

[@Gramaa1322]

Up, a very good idea

[@maxnoorda]

No sound after sound is so much more scarier!

[@littley-joming2582]

Like with the minecraft cave sounds. You're just minding your own buisness on the surface and then Cave sound 15 or 19 start playing

[@citrisaurora1182]

Complete silence is very unnerving. It also has happen before many horrible real life disasters and is one of the things survivors remember most. Basically, I'm saying it is psychologically proven that it would make Decked Out 2 even more terrifying to the players/viewers.

[@julianthebagel2299]

@@citrisaurora1182 that’s what I’m saying, it’s probably unrealistic but imagine if as your clank goes up you slowly become more “insane” hearing less and less noise and when you are at max clank you hear nothing but your own heartbeat.

[@NeedleHair]

With the new sounds you might be able to use recordings of the hermits screaming while playing the old decked out or the new one to make it sound like there are other people in the dungeon ahead of the player. Tormented souls that are keeping the player company.

Ooooo nice :)

[@egilsandnes9637]

@@emilelesaffre I don't think we will see that very soon. If Tango is ever gonna make something like Decked Out again I think he will have to find someone to cooperate with. Unless there is maybe some serious changes to how redstone and other active components works that makes his workflow much easier. He has more than clearly implied that there won't be any Decked Out 3 anytime soon. I really hope he does return to Decked Out like projects later on though. They are really exciting!

[@John-lh1qx]

I think the ambient music should be less consistent, more like minecraft cave sounds where it's short and punchy between is long periods of silence. The game is going to have a heartbeat sound playing and I think constant high pitch ambience is a bit much.

[@randomguy3849]

Agreed. Constant "action" only makes people become numb to the effects of the ambient noises, and eventually it'll be seen as a BGM rather than mood setting noises. Sometimes pure silence is far more tense and scarier than ambient noises.

[@aceitedeolivas1997]

there is so much potential for server-wide trolling with the music disc range change.

[@5pindin]

1. The audio design is super, super impressive. 2. Tango's excited noises are one of my favourite sounds 3. So are his screams of manliness. 4. I may or may not have jumped out of my chair at a certain point where screams of manliness were heard and pulled a muscle in my back. 5. Worth it.

Idea: add some random warden sounds to the ambient playlist, thus lulling hermits into a false sense of security when they start believing that all warden sounds they hear are fake.

[@am3thysts]

Although initially I thought this would be cool, I think this starts becoming troll-y and frustrating for players rather than adding depth, atmosphere, and tension to the game. But initially I agreed and it would be hilarious 😂

Hiya Tango! I'm late, I apologize! This video is tremendously terrifying when the wardens chase you! LOL You did an epic awesome job of planning, and attaining wardens for Decked Out!!! Thank you for being a Minecraft game with in a the game inventor, and mastermind. Your just an especially fun gifted person.

[@amaryllis0]

If you can ask the dev to add new features, maybe you could ask if it's possible to do a rectangular area instead of (or as an option to) a spherical radius? So instead of 1 radius, you just have 3, one for each axis? It would be really useful for defining exactly the area you want, where spheres are really awkward for covering the shapes people usually make builds in. Maybe also options for falloff curves too

[@j2kGorillazFan]

Hope you spoil yourself greatly once DO2 is complete 😁 Every episode is fun snd amazing! The excitement is real🔥✨

Once Decked Out is up and running, it would be interesting to see a behind-the-scenes video talking about all the out-of-game planning and admin/upkeep stuff that goes into it, like the spreadsheets and notes and stuff like that. Probably wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea, but I'm sure some people would find it fascinating.

[@5pindin]

If you don't already watch Tango's streams, you should. He talks about that process a lot. It would be cool to have it all in one video though (but I reckon after this he's probably going to sleep for a month straight 😂)

[@kokoshaw153]

If you add a room for extra "staff" in case a Warden gets pillaged, or a Pillager gets wardened, or any other combination of "friendly fire" amongst the Decked Out staff, I vote it be called the break room.

[@Jonas_Mikkelsen]

I would have never thought that transporting wardens would be easier than transporting villagers.

[@ImAdonai]

Having a long corridor in Decked Out in which player would need to quickly run away from a warden that just drops from the ceiling with some intense chase music playing suddenly, only for warden to dissappear in a quickly lit and destroyed portal would be a mood beyond any mood. Or better yet, just drop a swarm of wardens instead. Far enough to be able to run away from them, but close enough to cause panic. Also, portal sounds and portal cracking visuals/sound could work great for creating sudden tension with the ambient you've got there. Great video and awesome ideas, Tango! Can't wait to see Decked Out it it's full glory, and also play it once the world file is released!

[@nifegun]

Looks like decked out will be up and ready just after the hype wave of TCG finally chills out. What a server to play on. Plus we've got a silly prank war going on with doc and the buttercups to keep us entertained until then.

[@ukebec1178]

Holy cow, Tango! Every time I think you've hit the apex of what's possible for this game, you raise the bar some more! The ambient drone sounds are so cool and add tons to the atmosphere of DO. And your warden farm and delivery system is right on target! As of this episode I actually see the light at the end of what has been an incredibly long tunnel for you. There simply aren't enough adjectives and compliments in the language to give you. ❤

[@michaelgage652]

That sound mod is awesome. Now if you wanted to have a sound that only plays in one room that’s possible too!

[@AustinHenryminecraft]

when you get the wardens for decked out you might need a second pair of hands to nametag them in case your not fast enough

[@CaptainChristmasYT]

[@Chrysanthemumsie]

Brave Sir Tango ran away. Bravely ran away away. When danger reared it's ugly head, He bravely turned his tail and fled. Yes, brave Sir Tango turned about And gallantly he chickened out. Swiftly taking to his feet, He beat a very brave retreat. Bravest of the brave, Sir Tango!

[@briansnyder1276]

I have never laughed so hard from a KZbin video. Your reaction during the entire nether transportation was priceless. Thanks for the laugh tango

[@shimo_96]

Wardens only despawn after a minute of no interaction, but they must be in their lowest state of anger. It may take upwards of 5-10 minutes of waiting for them to calm down before they despawn, but they don't just disappear, they crawl back underground, which makes it easy to know when they despawn. Added Note: If a Warden sniffs you, that raises their alertness and resets the despawn timer, so you must be greater than 16 blocks away from them for them to eventually despawn. The easiest way of knowing if you're far enough is if the darkness effect is not being given to you. If it is, you're too close. As for how I know this information to be true? Its a mix of reading game logs and doing a lot of my own testing. Wardens are definitely a freaky mob not to be trifled with if you don't want to die, but knowing how to evade and avoid them makes them about as hard to deal with as a skeleton.

[@phredshunkie3487]

“Manly squeals” 😂 Fantastic vocabulary Tango. 😂

[@theimmortalhipster]

Sooooo…. once a warden locks onto someone, they’ll lock onto that player for literal eternity until they have a chance to deagro and then they’ll respawn after a minute and go to bed. I’ve ah… raided a few cities in my hardcore world😅😅😅

[@jgus6]

An idea I just had is in walls with stone brick or blackstone brick walls, you could do the Zelda thing where you put two cracked ones of that type, and standing as close to them as possible to trigger a pufferfish detector (or maybe throwing some sort of bomb item into a hopper minecart) would open a secret door with loot or a passageway or any other hidden goodies.
