[@Octogeek94]

We need a horn for “where are you dumb dumbs going?” 😂

[@fhtraveler]

Cubfan, get on it STAT! *LMFAO*

[@Drasticvoyage]

Please

[@LunaiCarmen]

The perfect 400 is SOOOO satisfying 🫠

[@TheBigRedBard]

As far as robot names, Hermits names with numbers! IE; 6R1AN, MUM80, 7AN60, 63M. (EDIT: I'm told this is called Leet speak) As far as the connecting tunnel, what about an emergency sewer entrance?

[@yilincai5873]

I was actually thinking the waters could have some kind of sewer/pipeline theme too. Also i love those names.

[@johnoswald8809]

Boosting, this names are perfect, I hope Impulse sees this

[@sglenny001]

Nah there should be a 5K122

[@ronanh.9261]

I agree!

[@benjamindebo9283]

It's called leet speak

[@jeffbrown4382]

"Are you claiming to be the victim of having your time wasted!?" This needs to be a horn.

[@chrisdierking5108]

I love how every time Impulse gets hundreds of levels, someone has an unrelated need to kill him.

[@d3sc3n7]

Every single time. 525 is just bonkers

[@fhtraveler]

They don't want him just walking around on quadruple digits.

[@hunterharvey0716]

24:50 "we should attend meetings with no items" Impulse having Boatem flashbacks 🤣

[@Oligator.09]

Last season impulse was a dwarf… this season he lives in the subway… impulse yearns for the mines

🤔🤔🤔 Yeah, as if he's like an antisocial hermit... Ba-Dam-Tis 😂😂😂

[@matagtikiplays8993]

He is turning into TFC.

[@gdfathr33]

For the section that starts the water -- make the "pipe" continue through the wall into darkness -- but its flooded due to a crack in the pipe which is where you leave to get into the water section

[@ronanh.9261]

Good shout!

[@Maou3]

^ banger

[@kalinasluminas4727]

I thought the same thing when I saw it. I'm almost sure I've done a Mario kart track with something like that before. I also thought that if he were to use trapdoors/water to do waves in that section so that water will randomly burst through that start of the pipe section. Something like his Moss farm kind of only more keyed up!

[@mad_maddie]

Name suggestion for your little maintenance bots: SUB-2-IMP which obviously stands for "Subterranean Dual-Purpose Improvement Bot" - They both clean and repair. You could put the full name over their charging station and then name the bots SUB-2-IMP-1, SUB-2-IMP-2, SUB-2-IMP-3. Your intro was awesome btw 😊

[@joshsatterwhite1571]

I'm really feeling the leet-speak Hermit names that's currently top comment, but I think yours may just be the most clever idea here.

[@mad_maddie]

Thank you!

[@monatae9725]

this is so good 😂

[@monicathorsell5995]

Like this😊

[@citrisaurora1182]

I want the leet-speak Hermit names, but the one out working is yours.

[@benpatania4319]

I think the robots should be named like the PacMan ghosts but rather than just being Inky, Blinky, Pinky and Clyde. They could be something like Blocky, Rocky, Talky, and Steve

[@SierraNight]

Definitely Steve

[@michaelaburks1463]

Impy, Blimpy, Pimpy and Steve

[@meccombs7629]

​@@michaelaburks1463 Or Gimpy, Blimpy, and Limpy... (And, obviously, still Steve...)

[@Tosty_82]

Impulse remember this is a slow season. No need to rush the metro mayhem. If you’re not comfortable with the way the water entrance turned out, take your time to puzzle until you find something satisfying. Personally I would create a service tunnel (like you find underneath hotels) with cables and piping running along the walls and ceiling. And if one of those pipes burst and created a whole in the tunnel…

[@bofriedbo]

commenting so this gets boosted, because indeed, he can take it slow :)

[@BreadinTea]

I commented something similar but I like your idea better.

[@AeonKnigh432]

It's not a slow season for everyone. That's something that a few people decided to do for themselves, it was not a group decision and it was not something Impulse said he was doing. If he wants to be done with it, he shouldn't linger longer than he wants to

[@LadyValishade]

That whole "Why do I have an extra seat" gives off some major false hydra vibes. Lol

[@hermitcollector]

Why was he saying that? Was he being cryptic about something?

[@JonathanVandeHei]

I think it’d be cool for the robot that is out working, have his light off to show that “charging station” is offline

[@jonathanparr3042]

The fact the trident guys can actually change parts of the dripstone cave if they hit it, is pretty cool. It will allow for new and different paths to open depending on how the hermits dodge the tridents. That being said Impulse might need to replace / add more dripstone after a few play-throughs.

[@sanskarjain3564]

The robots are just begging to be named Ed, Edd and Eddie. Or maybe Red, read and ready if you wanna be clever.

[@RealizeKaruga]

Bro Indian

[@BlueSunYoutube]

Thats smart, and the one that left to fix the issue is called Readiest

[@SergioEduP]

I love it, also I think that on the sign it could say like "Serial designation:" and then the name and maybe some random hexadecimal string to fill in a bit of space

[@Richasi]

Red, Redd, and Reddie?

[@AlechiaTheWitch]

Red reder redest

[@DracoWhisp]

What you could do in the blackstone diagonal hall; is instead of the honey under the iron bars is put dispensers with water buckets. They would go of in a succession and kinda make it look like it was flooding and getting pumped out.

[@bigburgerplayz]

Really good idea actually

[@a11pu1poj]

the intro had me locked in. You're cooking with this one impulse

[@edwardhardin9411]

I like the idea of using copper grates to make it look like a sewer pipe spilling into it, allowing for players to run across the grate and into the water.

[@mikkot4124]

You have to put "employee of the month" banner somewhere after you get all the names for the robots. My suggestion is "Asimo", named after famous japanese humanlike robot worker.

[@deygn9827]

What if from the robots displayed on the shelves since they each have a light under them, make it so a specific combination of lights means the course up ahead has certain shortcuts unlocked. The lights don't have to each represent one shortcut either. You can add some more shortcuts, and say for example lights 1 3 and 4 are on means only the first 3 shortcuts are open. This way for the late game runs from people with experience, they can take a glance and tell what's ahead.

[@dallonrobbins5078]

Robot Names Suggestions: K-1LL3R-1, M4-CH0, 0B-L1T3R-8, 1MP-UL53, R08-3RT. If choose any oof these I hope other Hermits do double takes, best of luck. Great project!

[@dionelr]

The one wheel robots remind me of Gizmoduck from Ducktales. I put forth the name Gizmo for one of them.

[@sglenny001]

Love duck tales 😊

[@BishopTDE]

Idea: a leg of the race should have a path where the floor opens up under unsuspecting racers. They would go down another route to the robot factory under the cyberpunk city, with a huge furnace and many conveyor belts.

[@drragonboyd]

As for the waterfall area you enter from the tunnel: you know how sometimes some rich CEOs office or a restaurant or something has a huge aquarium as a backdrop? It might be cool for it to be something like that where the glass has shattered or something so now you can go into the aquarium area. I think it makes sense to have a foreman's office or something in this area?

[@megadark12]

Proposal for the water part: Make it an "old" (kind of our time) abandoned flooded ruin/subway that the builders found the entrance to while working. and upon which the present city is built

[@jimmartin516655]

Robot name - Johnny 5. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a movie to watch.

[@HungryIzak]

​@@sglenny001 agreed

[@greybeardmc]

Tip for the bonemeal farm, something I'm doing on iSV. When you have multiple hoppers processing moss, for the first one or two, block all but one slot of the hopper with something non-compostable. That way the first hopper doesn't get backlogged with five stacks of everything, and will spread the load among all the composters.

[@easilybored]

For the robots, maybe it would be funny having a terminator reference calling one T-800.

[@sarahjensen9409]

For the entrance to the water section! If it looked more unintentional/run down you could have there be sort of a leak/hole in the wall, and then the same roadway could even continue outward like it’s just the same as the road section, but flooded.

[@ninjasuperman9538]

I am holding back tears in my office right now. Skizz Tango Impulse may be the best combo of all time

[@ansoncall7357]

A crack in the wall that leads to the flooded cave would be a great natural transition

[@StarNanny]

7:48 You could make it look as though the wall was broken (post apocalyptic vibe)….make it look like a crack with flowing water coming into the hall through the breach (another obstacle) from underground aquifer. If you make the flow from the top of the crack, it will be a mechanic everyone is familiar with…swimming up a waterfall.😉

[@Sitskier123]

For the entrance to the water area maybe make it lore-wise an underground fresh water reservoir for the city. Then you can have the entrance be like a service hatch to enter this underground reservoir where all of the cities drinking water is stored in this natural cave system (with some cyberpunk pumps and modifications maybe). There isn’t as much space but you could commission some armor stand wetsuit/scuba suits right next to the hatch to so workers could get in like that. Looks awesome and either way know it will be a phenomenal build! Hope you have a great day!

[@bigburgerplayz]

i think for the tunnel past the robots where you enter the water section it should be like a wall that would normally block off the cave but the water pressure burst open the wall and caused it to spill into the tunnel

[@KamasiFitzgerald]

Love the course! I do feel like the caves in the swimming section feels a little anachronistic with the city up top - feels like there should be sewers and bits of foundation sticking out of the walls to tie it in with what's above.

[@superbelo]

For the robots, one idea you could do to help sell the charging aspect; Have restone lamps going up wall behind each of them lighting up from bottom to top basically going 0-1-2-3-4, 0-1-2-3-4 and the empty one will just be redstone lamps all powered off as theres nothing charging. Not sure if its worth it considering people will be sprinting through there and that would just make more observer lag.

[@xzajft]

crazy idea for the volcano. turn it into a mini game where players have to jump starting from the bottom (lava level) to the top, using small platforms or glass panes suspended in the air while dodging some of cubfans firework explosions the longer and higher you get you get rewards like a golden apple or a fire resist potion that will help you start over if you fallinto the lava. the shortest time wins of course. players lose if the die to a explosion or fall into the lava below. there could even be different ways to play, like instead of climbing to the top. players try to hit each other of a platform with fireworks.

[@Matteo_the_Plague_Doctor]

Its clips like the one with Skizz and Tango finally finding your note block that makes me so glad Skizz joined HC!

[@sharlanefenton6213]

“Where are you dumb dumbs going?!” - Cub! That’s a Horn!

[@maickledeon]

Robot names = Romu, Roina and Roju. They are finnish and mean scrap.

[@hannahsnider2658]

I really like that idea! What should the 5th one be named though? Another name starting with R??

[@maickledeon]

[@brian_of_farce]

Robots gotta be Leo, Mikey, Donnie and Raph. Being in the metro/sewer ish area. That'd be perfect! 6:39

[@elrac7333]

The robots should be called Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Phooey.

[@davidsteele8956]

Cool, a Silent Running reference, what a poignant movie that was….

[@timwoods2852]

For a little RNG on the first leg of the course, you could install a similar firework as Gem's powerlines under the end of the rail. Sort of a "don't walk on the 3rd rail" situation. As for a connector between the bot shop and water, still think a sewer is your best bet. Check the front left hopper in the bone meal farm. It wasn't producing at all. There's probably a stone block or bit of Redstone stuck in it. It would be super cool if the Magic Mountain members made a combination biom of the volcano and cherry grove. That would be very magical.

[@limbo_was_here]

Idea for the pipe! Make the pipe perpendicular to the route and do a hole through it!

[@channelknightfadran7901]

At about 5:25 - if the little robot is out, maybe his light should be off. At least for the other guys, the lamps made me think battery chargers, which wouldn't be active while there's a robot charging there.

[@dreamz2k9]

I feel like the city needs an underground skatepark with the whole parkour challenge bits.

[@toastmaster2000]

For the connecting tunnel I think you could still go with the pipe, but the pipe could just keep going straight and you go into the underwater cave through a burst in the pipe

[@rxsiexx358]

Maybe you could turn the water fall into an entrance to a sewer sort of thing and continue it into the cave for only a little bit before opening it up into the huge cave. Looking incredible so far!

[@Its_Over_Anakin]

27:20 Cub just seeing everyone else on the server blow up at the same time lmao

[@partysqu1d]

I loved that Metro Mayhem intro, especially the pauses to sync with the music! For the pipe at 7:30, you could have the pipe extend to the wall with a burst out of the side where the player is meant to go. You could then redecorate the wall to look like a grate, with the arrow in the center pointing toward the burst!

[@kimilini4814]

Enters video to a count down… Me: IM NOT READY!!

[@superbelo]

Ok was just watching your intro and had a great idea for a fun drip stone farm. A trident drowned based dripstone farm. basically have the drowned aim at a mob just our of the tridents range, that ends up hitting dripstone that grows instead. Would be very inefficient, but visually cool and a good passive source of dripstone/dripstone blocks. Did not know they could break dripstone till i saw that and i know you guys love your wacky and fun farms. For how it could work, have atleast a few drowned in minecarts/ boats stationary in different locations. And a villager going back and forth in a minecart about 3 blocks above the tridents range. Just below the village is water logged stairs ontop of dripstone blocks, as long as the light levels are low enough the drowned will be able to target the villager, and will passively be hiting the drip stone, just make sure its spawn proofed and you should have no problems. Tedious to get the drowned, but would be a cool farm!

[@muuhrissanicole763]

Robot names: walle, eve, mo, vaqm, auto… from the best robot movie obviously

[@aahhhhhhhhhhhhh]

I think atom deserves a place too

[@EirFoxtrot]

Impulse is never going to understand this reference, but when You, Tango, and Skizz are together it feels like Last Of The Summer Wine. You're a bunch of old folk being pure chaos

[@kennypatton168]

for the connecting section I think a sewer system would make sense. Running through the pipes. Would give context to the water spill in the subway, and already established underground.

[@rockyshepard4451]

My first idea for the metro turn was a collapsed tunnel at the end of one way and a sewer grate you have to squeeze through. That would help explain the flooding

[@uletir]

For the arrow blocks you can cover the sides of the arrows that are incorrect with something like banners, lichen, sculk vein, or maybe something else so that the correct arrow side wont be confused

[@tonyhamilton9764]

small bits and bobs, time with the other Hermits. That's what I am loving this season. Don't stress doing mega builds. Thanks for sharing!

[@woahitsphoenix]

7:29 stripped acacia wood and orange terracotta make great pipes ❤️ also, adding smaller pipes made of lighting rods and chains will make the big pipe seem less random ❤️❤️I LOVE THIS MINIGAME!!

[@bobberina_]

The whole opening sequence of Metro Mayhem was excellent. The music, the little pauses, the cinematic shots?! Love it all.

[@BoliceOccifer]

Long term, for this race, you've gotta have an above-ground parkour section where you jump between, and run through buildings. Would be so cool, and add to the aesthetic.

[@Taffoman]

Robot names: Ro-Bob, Android Andy, Troy-D. Moving from diagonal to the water section could be an airlock. There could be two subsequent doors: One opens as one closes, like in an airlock.

[@aubrey9048]

I love how the connecting area of the metro turned out! in terms of suggestions for the transition from the diagonal path to the waterfall: how about making players drop down into the water, and give a choice of how players get up to that 4-5 block height difference? I love the variance in path choice in the train section (you can run along the rails, in the trains, on the trains, etc.) -- maybe something like that would work well? I'm a level designer, and I find that it's always fun in "speed challenge" segments to provide a slower, easier choice and a faster, harder choice -- perhaps, in the diagonal path, you have the choice of choosing a more difficult and harder route a few blocks above the main one -- like a balcony -- with the benefit of it being a little faster if you can pull it off. Failure to complete the upper level just means that you fall down to the slower area, so it maintains flow while only rewarding the time benefit to players who can perfectly pull it off. Perhaps the upper level has some kind of moving platform? it would evolve nicely from the theme of "timing" that you established with the shifting doorway in the previous segment. (This would also open itself to some potential RNG elements!) Then, the upper path is already above the surface of the water (changing the entry point from a vertical waterfall to a horizontal water pool), and the lower path needs a slower ascension (ladder? spiral staircase?) to get up to that elevation... hard to describe level design in text, haha. This way, players enter the diagonal path and choose immediately what kind of difficulty they want -- lower and easier, or upper and harder. If they can pull the harder path off, great! If not, the slow ascent at the end of the lower path (ladder, spiral staircase, etc.) instantly informs them of the cost of their decision (or failure to complete the upper path :) ). In general, giving players an immediate choice can really provide a sense of agency. I love the little shortcut in the swimming section, although it's more of an attentive easter egg than a proper choice. I'd love to see more dynamic decision-making in the course overall -- especially with RNG, it can really make players engage with their decisions and, which I love, get a little bit of panic when they're trying to go fast. The path of least resistance is always going to be the players' goal, and if that path isn't quite so clear, that can lead to people really wanting to master it. (Of course, overdoing the RNG or path decisions can really make it feel random -- "I got 5 seconds slower this time just because the RNG caused it to be that way" can be frustrating if you're trying to beat your personal best, but if it's a concurrent race where players are all going at the same time, it can be pretty fun.)

[@Emile50]

It definitely is interesting that you can edit the back of a sign, even though the sign is on a block that blocks it's view and will destroy the sign if broken. Was literally just about to comment how it would be good for secret messages or clues, love that you beat me to the punch XD

[@j1y25]

For the water entrains ideas: 1- Underwater base door 2- Jumping into Mario painting 3- Jumping into waterfall 4- Space base door 5- Sewers cat entrains

[@FerociousCookie]

If the whole tunnel leading into the water section was a giant pipe, there could be a hole where the water starts which could be the reason why it stops (because there’s a hole in the pipe and it’s not able to go through the whole pipe). You could also have the hole be a secret pathway. The pipe could have originally directed the water from the cave into a water cooling system for the charging station that powers the robots.

[@bobbdude]

Have the pipe go to the back wall (Black concrete or blue glass on the wall)- but there is a broken opening into the rest of the swim area- breaks it up in a way that the caves were flooded from the water coming from the system, and gives you the pipe you want in a natural way , and if the pressure is being released into the caves it makes sense that the water is just slowly being released at the entrance. Could also make the exit to the swimming area have water slightly above the actual exit hole(If the exit hole is just right at the ledge to show the water is continuing to flood the area.

[@minb3672]

A pipe on the roof and maybe a grate on the surface to show it is a badly installed storm drain that is now causing issues in the subway.

[@nicolehosner8125]

Couple ideas, 1) I wonder if there’s a way to make it look like the robot is out on duty. Like if you could custom art some tire tracks leaving the charging port might be subtle and neat. 2) this could definitely get busy (and add more work) so totally understandable if it’s a bad idea. But I think it’d be fun to do like a flooded city. If the theme is dystopian then a hidden part of the city could be great, and would help with the transition to the water bit and help the road make sense. Fun inspiration if you haven’t thought of it yet is the game Stray. Could be lots of help with the flooded section maybe.

[@aj_stuff]

For the water section, if the tunnel went up towards the top of the water, you can make the water area a under city stormwater (sewage) system. So you would enter the water from the top instead of the side.

[@abelkirkaldy9821]

Maybe in between the two closing and opening doors you can make a hole where hermits will be pushed in if they enter at the wrong time and get send all the way back to the trains or something!! (5:51)

[@wingmanted]

Would love to see the diagonal road in the metro, be a ramp going up, then the "pipe" is a vertical drop down into the water. If there's enough room above it to ascend In the underground.

[@jrvogtman525]

Johnny 5!!! You got to have Johnny 5!

[@hellabisys]

An obvious idea for that linking section before the water section would be a little bit of a sewer - lots of grates and pipes, and that waterfall would fit right in!

[@jeffbrady7840]

Lol! Right there at the end with the reveal announcement, it felt very, "Vote for Pedro, and all your wildest dreams will come true!" LOL Great episode, and awesome season. Loving binging through your playlist!

The robot that is draining the puddle, you could name him Bubbles and put soul sand under the machine that will make bubbles as if he’s using soap or a sponge at the end of his machine

[@AragornOfKebroyd]

for the entrance to the water part you could have the corridor going left or right and then have what was a viewing window into the water that has been smashed, allowing you to jump through maybe

[@tigerscion701]

Potential names for the robots R2-D2 (Star Wars) Weebo (Flubber) Johnny 5 (Short Circuit) Jarvis (Iron Man)

[@theeffete3396]

For that first water room, I would lower the surface to be either level with the floor or one block lower. You could decorate the room as a water-treatment lab or something, with catwalks and pipes in the walls/ceiling filling a large steel tank. The idea here being that the transition to the swimming portion requires diving into the tank, rather than just plunging through a wall of water.

[@thejonbmc]

For the entrance to the water section where you have the green terracotta, I think it would be cool to make it a big broken sewer grate instead. So, a circle or an arch for the doorway with some bits of iron fencing to show that there used to be a grate there. It would tie in the iron fences you used in that part of the course, too.

[@bencrow6931]

You should add a section to the metro race that comes out to the surface and through some buildings before going back underground! Maybe even add a split for two different paths, on over the roof tops and one through the interiors

[@saffral]

It'd be cool to have the waterfall going down into a cistern below (like it's part of the water system) with the players on catwalks suspended above the water, but that'd require hollowing out a bigger area than the play area. Of course if players fall down into the pool below, they could always swim back up via the waterfall. You already have a cool obstacle corridor there instead, so it'd be a waste to take it out. iRobotSV surely could be the name of one of the bots. Get the branding and reference in one tidy package.

[@TheKomodian]

I think a small change that could be nice is the copper below the robots that are waiting to be needed should be green so it shows they're ready for a task and the empty one remain first stage copper.

[@MechbossBoogie]

A potential deterrent for using the sides in the subway could be putting a couple hostile mobs in there. Not enough that they could just end the player, but enough that it would make them think twice about going that way to save time from getting knocked back. I'm thinking something like a zombie with a wooden knockback sword. You could continue the pipe a bit and then have it cracked open in the spot they go out into the cave.

[@gorgonaught]

With the robot charging stations, it would be cool if the spot where the working bot goes has an oxidized copper bulb or some other visual differentiator. The lights seem like charging ports and it would make sense if the empty slot looked different.

[@PenguBlueMC]

For the water transition, I think the pipe idea can work if you do bring out the opening more. Essentially, make it so that the wall where the arrow is fades into black with the stained glass trick and then on the right side it'll be a large crack in the pipe as if it'd been busted open. Then it'd make more sense with how the diagonal hallway leads to the front as it could be the bots creating their work way to that section of pipe trying to fix it.

[@abluerainbow]

Robot names: You can use every first letter of the hermits names and then add 001, 002, 003, 004, etc+. Similar to science experiments

It would be cool if for the transition to the water, you made a kind of airlock chamber that opens and closes for a bit (basically, 2 piston doors surrounding a chamber with water bucket dispensers on the ceiling, that open and close at offset times). it's basically a shortcut that's only open half the time, and anyone who gets stuck can either whether to wait or search for an alternative way (maybe a section of the wall has been damaged and now some water is seeping in through there?) it's probably not the best idea and it probably has a lot of problems, but it's an idea

You could make the start of the water section into a pipe itself, like, you're jumping into the flooded pipe, swimming through it and it then opens up into the underwater cave system

i've probably commented this lately everytime, but impulse is really killing it with these builds. i've genuinely come back to take some inspiration from them for my own base. the robot storage fits really well i love it

[@tuckertechnolord6126]

I think for the transition to the water section it could look like the back wall of whatever room has collapsed, or maybe been sabotaged, and broken into the cave behind

[@ensonia7914]

you should continue the green pipe into the area with the blackstone half slabs, honey, and iron fences - just make the whole thing one pipe that has a "clog" at one end and is busted where the water is, and that's why the water is flowing in that way the hermits can swim out of the busted pipe and into the underground cave

For the water entrance on the diagonal street I think it would be really cool to make the road look like it continues on to the right, but it’s blocked off like the road is closed, and that’s a busted section of tunnel wall

I honestly think it would be really cool if the Metro Mayhem course went all the way to the inside of the power plant and you would have to run around and dodge all sorts of machinery and other dangers.

You could make the section before the water into a pipe/sewer system itself and the entrance to the swim part would be a crack in the pipe. You could make the system go straight through the water but half it blocked off for "construction" and before the water section you can make another "construction area" so the whole pipe/sewage system makes sense

Idea for the transition to the water section - this is a portion of the subway that runs in an underground lake. That's where the water came from in the track part - there is water on the other side of that wall. And the wall broke more in the transition to the water section.

Two other connecty room ideas, a maitenance bathroom where the pipe is pouring maybe and a liminal hallway, something upsetting and scary. and I would love if the beginning of the swim area was a sewer area to make sense of it and then maybe show that the sewer route had a cave in or something and therefore you get diverted into this cavern.
