rogue-core-chat

[mossy ruin]

ayo, one dev playing rogue core right now

pog

[tall plume]

2, actually

[median sleet]

They actually send me an invite, but I am too busy playtesting Silk Song to join in RN

[zinc jolt]

actually so cool both rogue core and silksong came out 3 seconds ago

[median sleet]

Might play som Half Life 3 closed alpha after this

Maybe hop in a call with Gabe

[sacred wigeon]

just playing TF2's Heavy update

after 9 years of development, I can safely say it was Worth the Weight

[livid robin]

We got rouge core before gta6

[fresh jetty]

I'm betting we get rogue core full release before we get silksong

[chilly pelican]

Rogue Core Season 3 before Silksong

[tiny notch]

rogue core 2 before silksong

[chilly pelican]

Real

[delicate flax]

Rogue core should have a silksong reference just to put salt in the wounds of silksong fans

Maybe like a weapon framework or a plushie

[celest viper]

Rival tech rockpox infected crawler?!

[chilly pelican]

[celest viper]

Mining deeper title belong to rogue core tbh

Like

Drillervator goes slightly deeper compared to the depth of an actuall core

[chilly pelican]

Hoping there's a mod that makes the drillevator like 3x as long

[covert ruin]

my ammo!!!!!

[chilly pelican]

Hope you brought Berzerker

[celest viper]

Resupply in drillervator

[lime tapir]

what will come first:
gta6
rogue core
silk song

[mossy ruin]

if we count early acces, my money is on rogue core

[celest viper]

take my mone

[elfin coral]

U

[chilly pelican]

Yeah in order I think
EA Rogue Core > GTA VI > 1.0 Rogue Core > Heat Death of the universe > Silksong

[rose temple]

Man i hope i manage to get into the closed alpha testing of RC but, at the same time, not sure how that all works

[tropic prairie]

what's another game that already uses the mode they will try to implement on rogue core? i wanna see how the game mode works

[main grail]

You type roguelike or roguelite
Bam, 50+ games show up

[tropic prairie]

well sure, i was just expecting some popular game as a response instead to get a proper look at it

when wiki says "Roguelike (or rogue-like) is a style of role-playing game traditionally characterized by a dungeon crawl through procedurally generated levels, turn-based gameplay, grid-based movement, and permanent death of the player character."

idk what to have in mind

[delicate flax]

Binding of Issac

[main grail]

tf is that definition
No it's more that you have a run that go harder the longer it goes and everything is randomised
You start weak and loot random drops of random rarities
Generally you incentivized to play with odds and juggle with your resources, your health of items being part of it
And yeah dying resets the run

But the feeling of the game mode varies widely I would say, like

[delicate flax]

It's the official definition

[tropic prairie]

ive read the entire post the team of drg has posted on steam

[main grail]

You have Vampire survivor, Enter the Gungeon, Hades, Risk Of Rain

[delicate flax]

But imo the best definition is perma death everything's random

[main grail]

And I would say they vibe very differently

[main grail]

Idk cause it would make Hardcore Minecraft a Roguelike

[tropic prairie]

but for instance the camera will be like drg's? first person?

[main grail]

Ye

[delicate flax]

Also ror2 is more like a roguelite

Because it has meta progression

same with VS

[tropic prairie]

are you more excited for this type of genre?

[main grail]

Tried to give the definition rather than play on what is like Vs lite
They don't seem to know what a roguelike is, not going to hit them with roguelite

[delicate flax]

Well i wouldn't trick them into thinking ror2 and VS are roguelikes

[main grail]

No I mean
I don't think they care that much about the classification

When they seemed new to the roguelike/roguelite genre

[austere quest]

just want to point out there is no such thing as an "official definition". When you find a definition you need to cite it.

was curious what was going on in this channel since there is no open beta.

[mossy ruin]

that was the berlin definition

and this channel is mainly for speculations for now

[long breach]

So far its just been speculations, “what is rogue core”, memeing, rouge core, and some roguelike/roguelite genre talk

[vocal jewel]

We also had the videos with leaks :)

[small parrot]

we do?

[median sleet]

Yep, go through Anders' chat history in this chat

#rogue-core-chat message found it for you

[small parrot]

thank you !

[chilly pelican]

There are almost no roguelikes anymore

Devs realized meta progression is fun

The only actual modern roguelike I can think of is Noita

[rose temple]

which i'm pretty sure Rogue core will have as well

[chilly pelican]

Yeah meta progression just makes the game feel smoother since it acts as another aspect to sink time into but it provides benefits for the next run and then the next and then the next, etc

[rose temple]

agreed

[chilly pelican]

Plus, most roguelites tend to have the hardest difficulties even harder because they figure "ok well by this point he should have more stuff unlocked"

Like Hades wouldn't let you do heat16 as your first run (unless you're playing hardcore)

[rose temple]

tbh, RC will be the first roguelite I'll have ever played, I've seen others of the genre on the store but never felt interested to play them, but a roguelite set within the themes, universe and mechanics of DRG has me immensely interested

and it's cool to see old concepts being put into it, in this case coming across structures within the caves

[tall plume]

You should try roboquest, maybe

[chilly pelican]

Roboquest is fuckin awesome

Dead cells too

Slay the spire too if you like deck builders

[marsh bridge]

I've fallen a bit out of the loop, what's the current estimation for the first alpha/beta?

And when can we see the gameplay? Did devs say anything?

[tall plume]

nothing so far
Q1 2025 for closed alpha of Rogue Core is the estimation

Early Access release is still TBA

[chilly pelican]

S6 for 2026 baybee

[marsh bridge]

It was q4 2024 before, right? So they just pushed it one quarter further?

[chilly pelican]

Yea

[tall plume]

yeah

[marsh bridge]

Ok, that's not too bad.

[median sleet]

Not really, closed alpha was supposed to come out Q1 2024 but got pushed back by a year to Q1 2025. Early access was supposed to release in November 2024 but got pushed back to 'in 2025'.

[simple cloak]

In another time line, we’d already have meta builds by now

[oblique crow]

honestly i think the term rougelike refers to those with meta progression now, literally everyone calls games like BoI, RoR, Hades, StS as rouglikes that the terminology has essentially changed definition in the current zeitgeist

[chilly pelican]

I suppose

The og definitions would still make the distinction though

Roguelite: ror2, isaac, etc

Roguelike: Noita

[tall plume]

they're all roguelites*

roguelikes don't have meta progression

[delicate flax]

another day another roguelite-roguelike confusion

[chilly pelican]

real

[echo gale]

Noita has meta progression but not in ways that make things easier for you

If you want a roguelike play cogmind

[marsh bridge]

Is unlocking items considered meta progression? Talking about Isaac. Cause really you're just expanding the pool of options, not upgrading consistent stats or anything.

[chilly pelican]

you do unlock stuff for plenty of characters

and change some stuff about the gameplay loop

unlocking the womb, unlocking the alt path, the chest/dark room, etc

stuff like cain holding the paperclip, maggy getting her full health pill, samson getting a starting trinket, etc

[delicate flax]

you wouldn't be able to access those items at the start of your first run so yeah

[flint marsh]

fokin knew it nice

[valid violet]

https://youtu.be/V0YMqtJR_ic?si=7MLugxwKDTYSkAAY

Can we get a weedwacker as a weapon for gunner?

[cunning locust]

https://tenor.com/view/right-to-jail-lol-gif-27337929

[summer ferry]

I hope breathers return in RC, 1 to 1 conversion
(except they probably aren't pettable sadly, because these dwarves are "more serious" and stuff sigh)

[median sleet]

We'll find a way to pet them

[native monolith]

Rogue core isn’t going to have classes

But I do hope we get some melee weapons

[wary tiger]

||🍄||

[summer ferry]

Two handed heavy pick/great hammer weapon would be rad

Also I think they did confirm that they aren't going to be adding any Big melee weapons like, replacing a gun
But they do want to add new melee weapons as a side

[proud linden]

So, in case it's never been asked before, who is going to voice the elite dwarves in Rogue Core? Is it going to be Javier O'Neill alone, or will it be someone else?
Or will they have one different VA for each?

[summer tiger]

On one of the streams they said that they stay with Javier

[hollow palm]

“Each” may not apply here, as we won’t have classes to choose from

[fresh jetty]

not true, they told me they're adding two new classes: the long awaited medic, and an all new class called "the tax evader"

[median sleet]

They are also adding the engineer from DRG

Not the other DRG classes

[pearl cedar]

Because Gunner is retired, Scout is dead, and Driller is in jail for the murder of the former.

[lime tapir]

imagin 4 identical dwarves with 4 identical voices

[celest viper]

Quadrupleganger

[compact shard]

I hope rogue core has a tech tree

I'd love to get weapons/abilities that build off of previous unlocks

[native monolith]

Wererichwerwrichwererichwererichwererich

[lime tapir]

that would be epic

i'd honestly love if the game was even more open world than this one

like, there is this goal to get back the mining expeditions, but you can also do plenty of other stuff...

if anyone here knows the game "mindustry" imagine RC could be something similar. you deploy, you can do whatever you want, but you can only leave once you do the main objective

[sleek shoal]

ngl screenshots of the game really remind me of GTFO

with not really GTFO style

[compact shard]

I have enjoyed mindustry, and it has a pretty good tech tree. Given that this is a GSG game, I imagine it'll be pretty fun to hang out in levels before finishing the objective/extracting from the level. However, I do prefer that rogue-lite titles keep things pretty linear.

Having full control over area you drop in (as opposed to the randomized biomes of DRG) would at least be nice. Perhaps permanently unlocking biomes after completing enough missions in it, or unlocking later starts to a mission (equivalent to starting in the fields of asphodel in Hades, for example) to show you're pushing back against the core phenomenon.

[wary tiger]

you man quadroppelganger?

[lime tapir]

i agree

[forest rain]

rh

[frosty pewter]

Hi chat, Is there a place or channel where I can learn about Drg Rogue Core?

[marsh bridge]

There's not much to learn really. It's a rogue lite coop fps in the drg universe with a somewhat feel of gtfo. There are no classes. Lore wise you're getting into deeper parts of hoxxes, so the terrain and bioms would be new and different. In general that's pretty much it.

There's also some blog posts on rogue core's steam page. And I guess there's an axiskronos video on rogue core on yt to recite what we've known at the time (we haven't learned much more since then).

[gray plinth]

Isnt there supposed to be a horror aspect aswell or am i mistaken?

[marsh bridge]

It's not the main aspect, but yeah, a darker atmosphere. Not full on silent hill, but just a more scary version of drg in a way.

[delicate flax]

Channel pins and you can ask here

[elder nacelle]

Is rogue core going to make the game more competitive? I mean something like showing your achievements, history and graphs.

Which I think requires a certain condition like the ones included are only unmodded missions maybe.

[long breach]

Rogue core is still a co op game tho

[elder nacelle]

well, the coop part is not a problem I think.

It's a good addition to know your stats other than just the promotion part. It would also be interesting if fallen dwarfs root for the last surviving dwarf, maybe give him a boost too? a perk?

[long breach]

You can view your stats in regular DRG, though not publicly.

Im not sure if it would be wise to have public stats tbh? It would make the game needlessly competitive cuz itll likely become some public ranking and draw in toxicity

[elder nacelle]

hm, yea. Being competitive usually makes players more toxic for sure. But I still like those games lol

[delicate flax]

The most competitive thing in rogue core probably will be speedrunning

And you can't have toxicity in speedrunning, you'll get worser coordination and worser times

[chilly pelican]

speedrun uninstalling the game after a rage quit

[median sleet]

Also it would probably be just as easy to cheat as it is in DRG

[hollow palm]

It would be fun. Not like anyone looks too hard at leaderboards

[long breach]

You would be surprised😅

[grizzled surge]

#drg-chat message

[hollow palm]

Ugh

I guess risk of rain has the same issue

[zinc jolt]

hmmmm yes yes lets cheat for no reason

i will gain nothing from doing this

[main grail]

Big numbers go up

Monkey brain happy

[odd charm]

Actually will be our enemies consist only of Corespawns? Does Glyphids survive such big pressure in the core? tbh. I think we may have mostly Corespawns, but maybe there could be one small reference to DRG with onedeep living specie of Glyphid, which has evolved to live deeper than other glyphid species.
And will we also meet the Rivals again? Who went deeper cause of Lithophage. Maybe we'll see some new structures of them, maybe even the Rivals themselves in person. Or atleast as Androids or something.

Too many maybe's tbh. but it's WIP, we'll see what come's out 😄

[bold yoke]

I really want to play with a friend in a cooperative) I can’t wait) Maybe from the depths we will bring some interesting things to the guys from NAN

[forest rain]

I'm pretty sure they said they'd be moving away from glyphids and more towards a horror style for rogue core

[median sleet]

Glyphids will still be in the game AFAIK. I think a dev confirmed this in the comments of that Rogue Core post about designing new enemies

[forest rain]

Oh oki, thanks

[median sleet]

We don't know in what capacity they'll be in the game though. Maybe we only encounter them on the first few stages and later stages are all Corespawn. Maybe There's always a mix of the 2...

[odd charm]

Oh, i see, anyway thanks. I'm very interested what will come out 😄

[oblique hull]

Rock and Stone.

[elfin thistle]

what's rogue core?

[wary tiger]

#rogue-core-chat message

[elfin thistle]

ty, is there any known or estimated price for it when it releases?

[sharp junco]

At least three fifty

[arctic galleon]

FOR ROCK AND STONE

[tiny notch]

your entire wallet given directly to søren

[grizzled surge]

the time in unix millis when it releases into EA, in canadian dollars

[ebon finch]

i cant wait to bee poor so i can play this game and this is the first time after tears of the kindom im happy about spending money

[austere crane]

Wait what is this

What is rogue core

I only know about DRG: Survivor

[tall plume]

check the pinned messages

[austere crane]

Ah thx

[trim trail]

doing cores has given me PTSD

[royal heath]

is there a separate discord for rogue core?

[tall plume]

no

[hearty ether]

why would we split the greatest community ever among 3 discords

thats CRAZY talk

[modern stag]

there is a separate one for survivor probably because survivor is actually playable

[raven wharf]

and not made by GSG

[zealous inlet]

They're still gonna keep updating DRG after rogue core right

[sleek swallow]

yes

[zealous inlet]

neat

[thin siren]

early acess is for 2024 or 2025?

[median sleet]

2025

And closed alpha in Q1 2025

[pine skiff]

If you've gotten all overclocks and cosmetics, using the core infuser to create mineral cores gives a 0.001% for the core infuser to "go rogue" and grant you a closed alpha key

[simple cloak]

💀

[vague cargo]

What is rogue core

[tall plume]

pinned messages for info

[vague cargo]

Nice

I like how it sounds

There should 100% still be a way to get beer

Maybe uhhh

A case of beer or something idk

[left marsh]

eugh

[vague cargo]

What

[chilly pelican]

[lyric minnow]

Ok but why is rouge core?

[rose temple]

becuase

[unique acorn]

Rouge core?

When did DRG get a Sonic crossover?

[pine skiff]

We told the core we needed a wizard in the party, but it didn't listen

[frigid path]

When shellbacks were first added

[earnest rapids]

pogue core when

[tranquil fox]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2605790/Deep_Rock_Galactic_Rogue_Core/

[median sleet]

Yep, that's the game

[weary quest]

we're getting rogue core but when are we getting loyal core

[ivory spire]

Loyal center when

[verbal wolf]

Loyal Crust.

[hidden hornet]

Rouge core

[mild bison]

Rougé core oui?

[kind whale]

Oui oui beerguette

[vagrant tree]

Wait is rogue core out?

[tall plume]

no

[vagrant tree]

Ah ok

[median sleet]

Never played it

[ivory spire]

Nor have I

[chilly pelican]

"Alright you lugs, management can't decide which space rig to fire, so you'll have to decide that yourselves through what I can only assume to be civilized dwarven discussions. Good luck miners."

[vital orchid]

what is rogue core

[forest rain]

cant wait for roggue coooore

[median sleet]

I can

[oblique hull]

Rock and Stone..?

[dire vault]

Pretty certain they are in DRG as a teaser for the new game as much as for letting the driller trigger a party wipe.

[stone nova]

wonder what happened to the 4 dwarves in drg once rogue core gets released

[carmine zenith]

They get shot

Out of the airlock

Into a nearby waiting bacon shuttle

Then driven into the sun

Crispy bacon

[stone nova]

no seriously lore wise wonder what will happen to them

[carmine zenith]

Nothing

The dwarves get sent into a planet when normal mining operations have become too difficult for non-dwarves

If the work is done, they get sent elsewhere

[stone nova]

i mean going off the trailer on steam it seems like the dwarves we play as are KIA

[carmine zenith]

That's a normal day

[stone nova]

"suddenly and without warning, the deep mining operations go dark all attempts at entering the dig sites fail" this part of the trailer is why im curious about the fate of the 4 dwarves that we play as well

[tall plume]

There's more than just 4 dwarves working for DRG and that only concerns the deep mining sites - which is not where the action from DRG is taking place

[stone nova]

im only curious about the 4 dwarves that us the players play as im only curious about their fates

[long breach]

They continue working for drg. Iirc they said events in DRG still happen at the same time rogue core events play out

[pine skiff]

If anything, I'd expect that the deep core operations are too high-stakes for DRG to trust the regular dwarf miners to manage them

[simple cloak]

Something about being rich and mushrooms

[steel swan]

Something about goo being in a sack

[torpid hound]

Mission Control and Management will soon learn that, even in the deepest parts of Hoxxes, no one can escape the Goo sack!

Definetly excited to see more of whats to come 😄

[simple cloak]

We’ll start pinging something new like core sacks and error pearls

[sacred wigeon]

Error Spheres will be great to find

[hollow palm]

Continue doing what they’re doing in the neighboring spaceship

[tiny beacon]

the title and marketing center around the core being the problem, and only the deep sites have failed. Upper crust mining is still going as normal, presumably, although eventually activity will likely seep up to even there (likely S6)

[hollow palm]

Season 5

It’s how we’re getting corestone up here

[tiny beacon]

well yeah but corestones are just a quiet anomaly occasionally found in the caves. It's not yet on the scale of the previous seasons' events, but following the events of Rogue Core the corespawn and whatever else we find will probably kick up quite a few notches

[forest rain]

will they abandon drg when roguecore comes out

[tall plume]

no

#rogue-core-chat message

[forest rain]

[forest rain]

Thanks

[dense loom]

Dude I'm so excited about Rouge Core, a big thing I'm excited about is the world of Hoxxes IV, I really hope we get to learn more about Hoxxes, the history of the planet, hell, maybe even the rivals?

[hollow palm]

Material that reads £€?{£+%| when you laser point at it. Take it or leave it

[sacred frost]

We survive

[gray orbit]

Rogue core looks interesting

[manic sleet]

rogue lite means there will be some progression?

[tall plume]

yeah

[manic sleet]

ah okay

[hollow bear]

Rogue lite means diet

[raven wharf]

I was going to go with a light that walked around.

[fresh jetty]

alright I'm sorry for being so crass but I can't wait any longer. Who's beard do I have to comb to get an early copy

[oblique crow]

Karl's

[worn ore]

Sorry that’s Steeve’s Job

[celest viper]

Elite goosack in rogue core

It's gooier

Elite breather

It's breather-er

[simple cloak]

Maybe the breathers are vents for the deeper parts of hoxxes

[long breach]

if that's the case, will we see some upside down breathers then? Or the bottoms of some breathers? We have breathers at the depths of our regular mining expeditions, are their start points at the depth of where rogue core is or even deeper?

[main grail]

Breathers are based on real life organisms

Forgor their names but they're alive

Underwater tho

[long breach]

yeah i know. Just thinking of super long breather and if it doesnt have roots, then what's it have on the other end 😂

[long breach]

it's a predatory tunicate / ghostfish / Megalodicopia hians btw

[simple cloak]

Plot twist: Breathers all connect to a living layer of Hoxxes deep underground

[worn ore]

Its just a oxygen tube from deep underground

[torpid hound]

Hm... Damn breathers stealing our oxygen and shipping em off somewhere else! Many great Dwarves died during 0² Missions! They could have used that Air!

[celest viper]

That'll make them exhaler

[simple cloak]

The planet is alive after all

[carmine zenith]

The core is a 3d animated bat

[celest viper]

holy

that's a big leak

you're gonna get fried

I mean fired

[raven wharf]

I wanna BBQ it

[south otter]

So whats rogue core gonna be about?

[raven wharf]

Pinned messages

[frigid path]

The core going rogue

an aptly named title

[stone nova]

….so the core stone event the core spawn crawlers if those are the grunts of rogue core

I don’t wanna see what the devs have in store

[toxic bone]

Hmm

[median sleet]

I hope they aren't the grunts of RC, they're very annoying to fight. Probably so you focus on the Core Stone

[stone nova]

Sure their annoying to fight but just gotta learn to adapt besides with the vibe that DRG RC is going for seems it will be of a more serious horror like vibe

[simple cloak]

I’m sure we’ll also be way stronger anyways

[hollow escarp]

i wonder if they'll ever add water biome or water physics in drg

how can ice exist without water in such a diverse biomed planet

oops wrong chat

[median sleet]

Maybe when we all have quantum computers

[hollow escarp]

most likely XD

[sly nova]

i wonder if that's what the error cubes were for, to open something down near the core

[trail cave]

well, they look similar by its color and glowing so maybe you're right.

[wanton kraken]

i heard a rumor that in Rogue core the core is gonna go rogue

is this true?

[manic jungle]

No way

[grizzled surge]

nah, the core's gonna go rouge

[pine skiff]

The core is gonna go bard, we already have a rogue

[pallid anvil]

but i wanted to be bard

[verbal wolf]

Do you think Rogue Core will have something similar to Hades' "Pact of Punishment" for runs after the first victory?

[hidden hornet]

The core could swap to barbarian so you could be bard

[manic jungle]

I'm the barb, the core can be paladin or cleric

[west remnant]

Rouge is a color or cosmetic

[verbal wolf]

The core is a warlock whose patron is Karl.

[alpine oar]

Rogue core is definitely gonna make me masochistic

[short yacht]

What if we rename rogue core to ogre core and it will have ogres instead of dwarves

[sudden isle]

holy shit

Gnome core

[lavish idol]

What do we even know about rougecore

Also when is it coming out?

[manic sleet]

do we have numbers for Neuro-Corrosive Toxic Catalyst? How much damage it adds and how far it stacks (with each bullet more)?

[tall plume]

not well

or even at all

[summer tiger]

https://youtu.be/JyBZNxHvtS4?t=258

[manic sleet]

thanks 👍
also just noticed i posted this in the wrong channel, oops

[frosty elbow]

why is there a chat for an unreleased game and no chat for survivors

[harsh lynx]

There is a whole discord for survivors

Survivors is a different discord cause it's different devs

This is the same devs

[long breach]

invite link is pinned in #drg-chat

[tall plume]

somehow, I misread your sentence and thought you were asking if it would run well lol

😂

good to know it's running decently though

[gray orbit]

I hope drg rogue core gets the same love that deep rock galactic had when it released

When it comes out ofc

[sly wolf]

I hope Rogue Core will be p2w gatcha game

[celest viper]

Yoo

SSR+ Karl

Chance of 0.00001% from a legendary ultimate cargo crate

[flint galleon]

what's rouge core

another dlc/spinoff?

like uh

survivor?

[signal rivet]

Not dlc but a “side” game

[flint galleon]

oh neat

so kinda like survivor

[signal rivet]

Ye

But less mobile game style lol

[flint galleon]

nice lol

[signal rivet]

I believe it is a dungeon crawler style

[flint galleon]

oh neat

that's very drg of them

[signal rivet]

Frfr lol

It’s just a rougelite

[flint galleon]

i mean normal drg is kinda already a dungeon crawler if you think about it

neat

[signal rivet]

The theme is of the core of hoxxes

Hence the new event being core stone

Those enemies are super similar to rogue core ones

[signal rivet]

It is lol

[flint galleon]

yeah lol

i'm very interested to see what's at the core

[signal rivet]

Def

[flint galleon]

and what's up with the core stones

those are uh

very interesting

[signal rivet]

Let’s just say

Little Timmy needed the nightmares

[flint galleon]

fr

they're also just the right amount of speedy and tough to be really annoying enemies

but also not unfair

[signal rivet]

I’m pretty sure it’s just designed to tie in the lore of rouge core with the original game

[signal rivet]

They are stupid af

I hate that they can yeet themselves at you from a mile away

I play scout

And like

I got ZERO health already

Just get one tapped

[flint galleon]

yeab

yeah

[tall plume]

check the pinned messages to see all the available info

[flint galleon]

thx

also do the faction roles usualy take a bit to come in

just wondering

[tall plume]

yeah

it can take a while

[flint galleon]

ok cool

[signal rivet]

Like

[flint galleon]

thanks 👍

[signal rivet]

A long while lol

Just be patient and maybe your grandchildren can claim it

[flint galleon]

real

so like a month or 2?

[tall plume]

it's hard to tell

[signal rivet]

Nah

Week or two usually

[tall plume]

for some people it's fast, for others it's never lol

[flint galleon]

oh nice

yeah some probably just get lost in there somewhere

[tall plume]

also if you got issues with the ingame terminal; check #drg-chat pinned messages

got a list of fixes there

[signal rivet]

Just wait two weeks and if it still ain’t there then worry abt it

Thats how I do it

[flint galleon]

thanks

i actually had the server muted

so do i just go to the terminal and like

join my faction again?

[signal rivet]

It should auto stay the same

[tall plume]

no, you just gotta wait for the bot to update your status

[flint galleon]

oh

[signal rivet]

You don’t have to rejoin your faction

[flint galleon]

so leave the server unmuted for a while?

[tall plume]

yeah

[flint galleon]

ok cool

[tall plume]

shouldn't mute it anyway if you want to be able to collect the reward from time to time

[flint galleon]

that dot is gonna be terrorizing me for a while lmao

[signal rivet]

Frfr

[flint galleon]

oh

reward?

if it's pinged i'd still see it

[tall plume]

there's a monthly reward to collect every 28 days

it's not a lot but it's there

[flint galleon]

oh neat

[signal rivet]

It’s like 300 or so materials I think

[flint galleon]

nice

[signal rivet]

Not a crazy amount, but nice as a free gift

[flint galleon]

yeah

that reminds me i need to sell some of my like 1800 croppa that stuff just keeps piling up somehow

i haven't even collected anywhere near that amount

[signal rivet]

No no no

DO NOT SELL

[flint galleon]

really?

why

[signal rivet]

Unless you got all upgrades and like 90% of the cores

Keep the mats

Basically

[flint galleon]

bro i haven't even promoted one character ;-;

[signal rivet]

The exchange rate is sh^t

[flint galleon]

my highest level is like 20

where did i get 100 from???

[signal rivet]

I was abt to say lol

[tall plume]

alright, you might wanna move the conversation over to #drg-chat now

[flint galleon]

oh shoot yeah

[signal rivet]

Mbmb

[flint galleon]

thx

are there any news about a alpha/beta playtest?

[long breach]

Not yet still

[simple cloak]

erm

naur

[delicate flax]

give it a hour maybe the mods will wake from their slumber

[south wigeon]

Will Rogue Core have duel flamethrowers?

[gleaming stirrup]

and beer?

[cedar crow]

And music machine?

[fierce prairie]

And jetty boot?

[final wren]

Who would win core stone or Gunners shield

[worn ore]

Bosco

[median sleet]

What if we build a really big gunner shield to go around the rogue core

[delicate flax]

The rogue core has been outrogued

[jolly heath]

what is rogue core? 🙂

[hollow palm]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2605790/Deep_Rock_Galactic_Rogue_Core/

[vital egret]

How do you guys get early acces?

[carmine zenith]

You don't

Not yet at least

[terse beacon]

You need to eat more rocks first

[hollow palm]

I live under GSG’s floorboards

[tall plume]

the pinned messages got all the info you need and more

[median sleet]

Is disinformation no longer allowed?

[carmine zenith]

Who says that wasn't

[tall plume]

we got enough of the fandom wiki, we don't need more of that on the discord tbh

[delicate flax]

hey how do we know this statement is actually real and not a lie in of itself

[median sleet]

because you told that person the truth instead of asking for 22 pickels to get access the the super secret closed beta

[carmine zenith]

Who says it's the truth

[tiny notch]

you missed the window sorry

[simple cloak]

The closed alpha only lasted for a week

[fresh jetty]

fake news, it actually lasted for 30 seconds

[pallid beacon]

Bro made me think I actually missed it for a second there lmfao

[simple cloak]

💀

Plot twist: They actually did do a alpha test but it was silently done, a small group of people were emailed

[tall plume]

counter plot twist : the game was actually tested, but only by the devs

[simple cloak]

Maybe the alpha tests were all the friends we made along the way

[hidden hornet]

Counter counter plot twist: the game never existed and it was all in our minds the entire time

[tall plume]

what if the game was all the tests we imagined along the way ?

[hidden hornet]

What if the game was the friends we made along the way?

[left apex]

I'd be sad

[gray orbit]

Imagine you can still fight a corrupt bet-c in rogue core but you can control it

[frigid path]

I’ve made one hell of a awesome game then

[stone nova]

Wonder if I’ll be able use my controller in rogue core for early access on steam

[lean spear]

Is there any information on why the core is going rogue ? (in term of lore)

[median sleet]

The Dwarves delved too greedily and too deep

[cerulean tundra]

You know, I heard from my friend whose father’s cousin’s college roommate spoke to someone at GSG. Rogue Core is going to have a Nitra Bulk Detonator.

[sudden isle]

any word on the morkite detonator?

[celest viper]

Dystrum lootbug?

Sufficater?

Golden maggot?

[fierce prairie]

Bittergem bulk detonator when

[velvet cipher]

Any recent news on the game? I can only look at the steam screenshots for so long..

[median sleet]

Nope, last thing we heard was closed alpha in q1 2025 and early access in 2025

[celest viper]

Real sad

[velvet cipher]

Ugh back to drg survivor I guess

[dire yarrow]

When we getting the bulk detonator bulk detonator

[solar fog]

ERR://23¤Y%/ bulk detonator?

[burnt flume]

YES PLEASE

[fringe smelt]

Dystrum Detonator (like Krasus)

[left apex]

saaaame

[fathom briar]

The one thing I won’t like about rogue core is that I feel like normal deep rock will start to have less and less players. When it’s still a very good game. Though deep rock and rogue core are two different styles so it’s less likely that will happen. I just don’t want deep rock k to become a dead game.

Ya know?

[tiny notch]

oh it released last week on android

[grizzled surge]

mobile gamers stay winning

[tall plume]

nothing lasts forever

[chilly pelican]

Which is why after Rogue Core season 5 we'll get DRG 2 and then after DRG 2 Season 5 we get Rogue Core 2

[hidden hornet]

Then after that we get rouge core

[grizzled surge]

ignore the fact that drg 2 is just drg remastered with ray tracing

[quick turtle]

Rouge core please have good risk reward

Embed fail….

[sudden isle]

yeah you don't have embed perms mate

[visual depot]

Rogue core amarite

[worldly sundial]

What even is that gif?

[sullen topaz]

do you think we are using expenite weapons

or like energy weapons that are powered by the mysterious substance "expenite"

it seems possible normal weapons (like the ones the dwarves use in drg) are ineffective and so special weapons will be needed

could also explain why you start with only a pistol

[south otter]

We know the weapons yet?

[little sail]

can't wait to beat the shit out of everything i see using a fucking pickaxe and a futuristic pistol.

[carmine token]

Rogue core chat

[rich condor]

rouge core chat

[rapid kiln]

rogue core chat

[sullen topaz]

We can see some concept art for them in a dev log thing

[short yacht]

Pls add Kazuma Kiryu in rogue core

[sullen topaz]

glyphids will be in rogue core... hmm

[tiny notch]

just the pickaxe

[south otter]

It’ll do

[simple cloak]

Nuke

[manic jungle]

If they don't keep the C4, I will be very disappointed

[faint crypt]

So.. is this going to be a new game? Just joined the discord because i'm getting back into DRG after like two years

[delicate flax]

Yes

[tall plume]

check the pinned messages for details

[celest viper]

Drg is Minecraft 2

[lyric carbon]

No?

[simple cloak]

[rigid gate]

they’re still different games tho

just bc they’re under the same company

i believe what you’re worried about is cannibalism- rogue core will only take away players of the flagship game and not bring in anyone new

the same way coke zero mostly stole Diet Coke drinkers

but that didn’t happen with survivor (even though that game is quite different compared to rogue core)

in fact that game has a higher all time player count than drg (could be outdated info)

[delicate flax]

if i had to guess rogue core would steal 50% of the drg playerbase at launch and then when it dies down it would only be keeping 20-30%

[forest rain]

is the corestone gunner shield cheese still working?

[quiet sage]

it looks a little too similar to core DRG that I wonder if it has a reason for existing as a separate game instead of some kind of mode

[delicate flax]

no patch has fixed it yet

[forest rain]

huh, it stopped working somehow

[delicate flax]

it's combat is incredibly different from normal drg, the objective in rogue core is also different, and there are new enemies and tons of new weapons

[forest rain]

I'm probably throwing the shield too high actually

[median sleet]

I think it'd be more of a flip-flop between the games depending on which one gets updated last. As for how many people would flip-flop will depend on how good Rogue Core is

[median sleet]

In mission power progression
New theme with a bunch of new enemies, new dwarves, other spacerig
A bunch of new weapons
Keep in mind the only screenshots we've seen so far are from a very early build, it'll probably be a bit more differentiated from DRG at launch

[simple cloak]

Because it started as something that would be in the base game. It has grown too large to fit in DRG as a mere addition to the game so now it's a separate game

[celest viper]

I’ll definitely be one of 30%

[left apex]

can't people just like play both games?

[carmine zenith]

No, you only get to choose one and the other gets deleted from your steam account forever. No refunds.

[left apex]

how do you try both out before you decide then

[tall plume]

you flip a coin

[raven wharf]

Two steam accounts

[carmine zenith]

Gsg will be working to ensure no duplicates are allowed. We won't explain how they're going to do it though, so as to not give bad bois a chance to cheat the system

[manic jungle]

If you try to evade, you get IP banned

[carmine zenith]

hardware banned

[delicate flax]

What if I got vpns and two different pcs

[sudden isle]

The elite strike team will hunt you down and force you to play industrial sabotage for all of eternity

[sullen topaz]

so what now... we wait until november for a early access?

[simple cloak]

November 12th 2032

[royal axle]

The C4 charge in your PC explodes

[main grail]

You explode

[tiny notch]

yeah it was last november you missed it sorry

[sly nova]

what if, in addition to all of DRG base game weapons, we got more from the concept art

for rogue core

[finite laurel]

The weapons are what I'm most excited for, since they don't have to worry about making them fit the roles of specific classes and they don't have to worry about balancing modifications and overclocks

[celest viper]

We need more news about RC

[median sleet]

News: You'll play as dwarves

[mossy ruin]

today is august 6th, 2024, this is dedi, bringing you your daily rogue core news
there has been no news to report for rogue core today
this has been your daily news for rogue core for today, august 6th, 2024

[celest viper]

Holy shit that’s something unexpected

[celest viper]

Can I get the Hoxxes weather report as well

Weather of the inner core of hoxxes 4 to be exact

[full belfry]

Have this:
We're pretty much all back from summer vacation now, and apart from a few bugfixes for DRG, we are going full steam ahead on Rogue Core.

[tall plume]

can't wait

[tiny notch]

thanks robert <3

[sudden isle]

thanks robertburger

[visual depot]

Is rogue core gonna have roughly the same requirements as drg?

If not I might be in for a new pc

[frigid path]

Hope you all have fun on this new venture

[main grail]

Don't say that
"Trying a new industrial venture" is the exact lore behind rogue core

[hollow bear]

https://tenor.com/view/freaked-out-excited-what-freaked-out-gif-5796912

[tall plume]

likely

probably on somewhat the same level but a bit higher

by how much though, hard to say for now

[visual depot]

Hopefully Indie studios don't fall for the "more requirements, better games" that the AAA studios believe

[tall plume]

AAA studios think spending enormous amount of time, work and money to give the biggest spectacle they can will make a great game

indie devs usually have quite the different experience

but when you get better funding, it's also easy to want to make the best experience possible and things can go wrong on the way

it's a delicate balance to achieve

[visual depot]

Drg is proof that you don't need huge amounts of money and 500gbs of code and assets to make a great game

[velvet marsh]

and every other super successful indie game

there's always a market for the bigness and spectacle that AAA games often produce, but when the bigness and spectacle take priority over the quality is when we get to the big flops of the last few years

also overworking your developers 🫤

[visual depot]

I'm not a fan of AAA games, I don't remember the last one I played

[celest viper]

let's goooooo babyyyy
this is what I was waiting forrrrrr

[pure vessel]

Hard to say at this point. Right now we're focusing on making the game, then we optimize.

[visual depot]

Thanks for answering, either way I can use the new game as an excuse to buy a new pc lol

[pure vessel]

Rogue Core is also why I just bought a new PC.

[visual depot]

See? I have a perfect excuse now

[wheat river]

I think it's reasonable for you to upgrade, treat yourself, it's what Rogue Core would want (this is not financial advice)

[delicate flax]

i just hope you don't create any spaghetti code in the process of creating rogue core

[tall plume]

spaghetti code is always gonna happen in software development

[simple cloak]

I NEED to upgrade my pc to be good for games in 2040

[long breach]

Youd get a huge chunk of spaghetti code in a single script, then realise you need to split the scripts into smaller scripts to be able to reuse them

And then youd get lost in all the spaghetti strands strewn about

And then spend 3 hours trying to figure out how this scrip calls the other script while referencing which script, and then dont know how to fix the problem anyways

[pure vessel]

Financial suggestions

[pure vessel]

https://tenor.com/view/oh-well-fine-ok-whoops-oops-gif-20212592

[olive narwhal]

Hope its atleast tasty spaghetti

[royal axle]

I'm gonna eat the code

[spiral finch]

if it works don't touch it

[median sleet]

I am also in the 'contemplating to build a new pc camp' I try to convince myself it's to actually be able to run those 200gb AAA games but I know I will only play DRG and RC on it

[celest viper]

Is Bosco in RC chat gpt included?

[celest viper]

🫳

[barren python]

i wanna buy it and i wanna do it now 👀

[simple cloak]

I bought it in spirit and have been playing it

[calm hill]

Guys, I am back from the future. I bought RC and now I'm gonna say a huge spoiler: Lloyd releases his stand -- a giant beer mug -- to stop and imprison a pupated glyphid dreadnaught from mauling driller after he slipped and dropped his last C4 charge, but sadly Lloyd dies because he was tipped a few creds too short to buy his soul back from the Core Demon Malignrok. Maybe we can save him, keep tipping boys!

DRG has a monopoly on expenite

[high sedge]

i NEED rouge core

[burnt flume]

What is expenite? The new morkite?

morkite but yellow

just like how dystrum is gold but blue

Spoiler for Rogue Core: ||The Devs are epic||

[ruby idol]

Isn't rogue core a bit like Vampire Survivors?

[left apex]

no, that's Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor

[left apex]

anyone else read this as if it was a mission control voiceline?

[tall plume]

well, mission control voice is Robert's voice

[visual depot]

absolutely

[median sleet]

Robert should send every message as a voice message instead of typing them

[cinder wind]

Now I did

[visual depot]

hell yeah

yeah!

[delicate flax]

it is more like risk of rain 2

[warm acorn]

cant wait for roguelike deep rock

[wary tiger]

Dont let your core go rogue too

[pine skiff]

We've been through this. The core is going wizard, we already have a rogue

[celest viper]

! Another spoiler for rogue core !
||we have to shoot creatures with guns!||

[burnt flume]

Spoiler for Rogue Core

||We actually get to know about Karl's death||

[finite laurel]

Maybe the real rogue core were the friends we made along the way

[wary tiger]

We need healers more tho

[visual depot]

will the drg dwarves ever see the core?

or just rogue core ones

[west pasture]

Are the devs planning on giving any insight into development again soon?

It's been a while since the last rogue core update post

[simple cloak]

Need another road map but this time, a road map straight into their HQ to play rogue core

[pseudo ocean]

Need a rude mop

[simple cloak]

Rude mop: the onboard sentient robot mop that insults the Rogue core crew when you interact with it

Not much but stuff

it could be an NPC or something, or player choice

Gotta protect the briefcase!

[celest viper]

core's roguin'

[median sleet]

Did we get any updates on the move to their new office? Is it done?

[celest viper]

they're tryna code with toaster

still faster than mojang devs with high end super computer setups

[lost juniper]

The core is roguing

[celest viper]

[tall plume]

it was getting done this week-end, week-end ain't over yet

[median sleet]

Nice, do we know the location? I am not planning to stalk them on google maps

[tall plume]

nope

[celest viper]

was it the case in the previous office?

[median sleet]

I assume the adress on the bottom of their website is their office

https://ghostship.dk/

It's their office, just checked with the Sniss video

[celest viper]

denmark?

pretty close to me ngl

[sullen topaz]

2025...

dramatic noo ensues

[celest viper]

I’m enjoying playing rogue core in my mind at this point

Using 101% of my imagination

Is there any plan for adding more core creatures to drg?

[simple cloak]

Pretty sure it’s just going to be the one

[shrewd shard]

maybe after RC release?

[tall plume]

"no plans" is probably the answer
migh, might not, who knows

[earnest jay]

I hope early access is comes a bit earlier than their longest estimated date. November feels like too long

[lean kite]

if they do the two part system theyve done w other seasons i think you can only assume they might do more

but yeah not going to be many core critters

[tall plume]

the two part thing was coincidental, not particularly intended

[celest viper]

Earlier early access

[celest viper]

I mean, fair

[simple cloak]

access now

[celest viper]

I think devs top priority should be working on RC at this point

[tall plume]

that's their priority at the moment, yeah

[celest viper]

I hope I could see concept arts at least

Hopefully soon

Since they’re back from summer vacation recently

[short yacht]

Will rogue core be on the same engine as drg?

[tall plume]

yesn't

it will still be on Unreal Engine, but it will be UE5 instead of UE4

[celest viper]

Are those versions considered as different game engine?

Or is it just updated version of a game engine

[lean kite]

ah

assumed it was the way seasons just generally worked, thing pops up, gets stronger, gets neutralized

[tall plume]

I guess it's an updated version but I also suppose it differs enough to be its own thing
hence why the "yes and no" 😄

[celest viper]

Reasonable enough

[tall plume]

nah, it was just coincidence, like the devs wanting to close things off because they had left over stuff from previous season or they wanted to explore the theme a bit more

[celest viper]

Like sequel of the unreal engine

[raven wharf]

I thought they were sticking to 4?

[tall plume]

they've confirmed on stream that they're switching to UE5

it was like two weeks ago

[raven wharf]

guess I'll get to see how 5 plays on linux

[tall plume]

yeah

[fresh jetty]

it's part of their evil plan to destroy all linux computers by making it so they overheat and explode when playing rogue core

they told me this themselves, I swear

[raven wharf]

It'll probably run better anyways even with the proton overhead.

[sick mica]

Unreal 5 works ok on linux

The latest senua uses it

Doesn't run great but that's probably a senua issue

[hollow bear]

I hope unreal 5 has more jiggle physics for the RC hat line-up

Or capes. We could use more of those.

[raven wharf]

I'm thinking cloaks

[olive narwhal]

The reclaimers have to have cloaks

Especially with what ever ue5 brings to the table for cape stuff

[olive narwhal]

Satisfactory runs pretty alright so im not supet concerned about it running well for me at least might bump the minimum specs up i guess though( i have some pretty decent specs)

[wintry needle]

Most important features of UE5 are actually procedural generation stuff. GSG have developed something themself for DRG, but UE5 has much better support for it out of the box

From my knowledge, there is nothing in UE5 what would improve "jiggle" physics what wasn't a part of UE 4.7. It mostly depends on developers.

[hollow bear]

Then I will demand more jiggle

Yessir

[compact shard]

Will rogue core have knives?

[ruby idol]

So rogue core is in beta.

Or am I wrong?

[tall plume]

it's not currently in beta

[ruby idol]

EA?

[tall plume]

no either

[ruby idol]

I'd like to try it out one day

[hollow kestrel]

make rogue core as difficult as a20 slay the spire and like, a quarter as balanced and i'll be a happy camper

[delicate flax]

make it more difficult than every dark souls game

[fresh jetty]

Boot up game, die immediately before it’s even done loading, game calls me an idiot and uninstalls itself

Optimal gaming experience

[simple cloak]

POV: the game starts up with a qte and if you miss it, locks you out

[celest viper]

Minimum difficulty is 5+ with all maxed modifiers

[celest viper]

I wish there’s more lore about crawler

For e.x how RnD interacts to a captured crawler

[frigid path]

I asked one of the lab boys in passing and they just muttered about making something whole again

[celest viper]

Something what

[frigid path]

Probably that weird obelisk we dug up recently, one of the boys probably crack a bit off during excavation

[celest viper]

Oh boy

Wait, that situation sounds very familiar…

the new melee weapon will be two fat boy nukes taped to your fists

sorry for leaking this devs, but the people deserve to know the beauty of your creation

[delicate flax]

The devs sent me to take care of you. Step out of the house.

[hearty path]

Make us Whole

The Blue Marker

[solar hazel]

i wonder if the devs will stray too far from the crurrent weapons

[delicate flax]

idc if they do

rogue core is supposed to be a entirely new game but with drg's lore

plus it lets them implement their more creative ideas that dont fit into regular drg

[warm stirrup]

Hi everyone, how can i get early access to rogue core?

[carmine zenith]

Did you mail your check for $99.99 to gsg?

[warm stirrup]

no, can i buy the game in Russia?

[median sleet]

Game isn't in early access yet.

[waxen grove]

Game is in late access now

[celest viper]

future access

history access

[waxen grove]

Yes

[celest viper]

B.C access

A.C access

access

I hope there will be actual dlcs for rogue core

not just cosmetics n stuff

not saying it's bad thing but more contents never goes wrong :)

[olive narwhal]

I mean rogue core was originally gonna be a drg expansion

Or so i have heard

[celest viper]

hmm

should I consider RC as dlc of DRG?

even tho it's separated game

[olive narwhal]

I mean it was made a separate game because its scope exceeded what could be done in a dlc

[celest viper]

tru

[olive narwhal]

And it restricted what they could do with it

Its a separate thing now so they are free of the restrictions it would have otherwise had

I still have high hopes for it and from what sniss and others that got a chance to touch it said its different from drg

[celest viper]

either way dlc or separated game, I'd gladly pay it for GSG devs

they're doing great job

[olive narwhal]

Im hoping we get some deets in the near future now that they are full steam ahead

[celest viper]

yeaah

can't wait for further infos

[mossy ruin]

just like a certain other bug game...

[west vortex]

what is rogue core?

[olive narwhal]

Pins have deets

[west vortex]

okay, i'll see it

[olive narwhal]

Store page is probably a good place to start even if it lacks info rn

Mainly due to the lack of stuff to show but that shall change soon probably

[west vortex]

slightly offtopic but why does deep rock survivor have no channel?

[mossy ruin]

because other devs made it

survivo has it's own discord server

[west vortex]

I see

[celest viper]

devs are adding the boiled one into RC

[willow flame]

cogue roge

[visual depot]

I dont want the roge to go cogue

will Rogue core be a First Person Shooter like DRG

finally, i’ve been waiting for a fourth person drg game… the devs clearly need to get with the times, fourth person is the quality standard nowadays

[waxen grove]

fair

[scenic mulch]

I know it's not said, but I hope one of the DRG limitations they're getting rid of is the current skeleton system for dwarves, it's why they've said they haven't developed any women dwarves. (Although truthfully they could probably just do the "Thin/Bulky" thing that HD2 did)

[last rapids]

no idea what you’re talking about. my engi’s obviously a woman. you can tell because of the… uh… more well maintained beard?

[toxic swan]

probably nooblord question but how do i apply to play the alpha?

[native monolith]

Wait for it to exist :P

[pure vessel]

We would also have to get a new voice actor and have them record all the lines already in the game, which is a horribly big task. Also remodel all armors.

[tall plume]

but for Rogue Core, would it be in the scope of the possibilities ?

[pure vessel]

It would certainly be the best time to do it now rather than later when a billion voice lines have been recorded.

[pure vessel]

Not sure when and how the alpha stuff happens. We'll likely mention it on the Steam Page whenever it becomes relevant. Possibly social media will be updated too.

[tall plume]

speaking of social media, the Rogue Core store page still has the old roadmap with November 2024 for the Early Access

[pure vessel]

Fair point. I think the good people in marketing are aware of it, but these things tend to be a slow proces 🙂

[fresh jetty]

ok I have an idea: set a trap for a voice actor. put a tarp over a hole then throw some money and some cough drops or whatever voice actors like on top. Then when they fall in the hole, keep them there until they finish all the lines. easy peasy.

[sudden isle]

Will Rogue core have throwables from the board game

[last rapids]

Or will Rogue core have the board game as a throwable

just like, pick up the box and chuck it at the bugs

[arctic igloo]

another below the deck article would be great for rogue core 🙂
been curious on how it's going

[pure vessel]

I think we're currently trying to switch up the format a bit with video interviews / behind the scenes, but don't know more than that. However I know we want to make more below decks.

[frigid path]

Wouldn’t below decks technically be the brewery under your new offices?

[visual depot]

Dystrum Core

[hearty path]

Make Us whole

[sturdy vale]

Havent checked news about rogue core since february, anything announced?

[tall plume]

we have the current roadmap which has been pinned here but outside of that, not really

[sturdy vale]

hell yeah im hyped

ive got so many new games im excited about that are having alphas in the next year

[simple cloak]

Don’t tell anyone I told you this but, I think rogue core is gonna have bugs

[royal axle]

Mods, this man right here

Execute him for rogue core spoilers

[native monolith]

Can’t wait for the big reveal that they pulled a helldivers and it’s all robots now

[main grail]

(there will actually be no difference between bugs and robots, it's just a reskin of glyphids)

[visual depot]

Rockpox

[verbal wolf]

Can't wait for a Rockpox full grown Dread with Rival enhancements in Rouge Core.

[main grail]

Giant enemy spider

[celest viper]

I want ommoran heartstone lore in RC

[verbal wolf]

Is there a lore reason it's angry that we are drilling into its body to take its heart?

[main grail]

Idk do we really need a lore reason why murder is bad

[pure vessel]

You'd be mad too

[harsh lynx]

I mean its not murder, its a literal rock

[main grail]

It's literally using psychics powers to defend itself

[fresh jetty]

there are some small lore snippets that imply rocks can be alive in the drg universe

[main grail]

Perhaps the fact they scream in anguish at us

[fresh jetty]

also the Ebonite Glyphids are implied to be controlled by the rocks growing out of them. which idk how that would work if the rocks weren't at least a little alive

[celest viper]

Haha

Rogue core

Funny name

Is Rogue core rogue core or rogue rogue core core

[visual depot]

No one has mentioned the fact that we will get new mission control snarky voicelines

Which makes the game good by default

[simple cloak]

The planet cries in anguish but we can't hear it

[main grail]

The planet is a lil quirky at night

[oblique fog]

So it another game like DRG with same mission but one unique and unique weapons upgrade?
Confused 😕

[tall plume]

details are in the pinned messages

[oblique fog]

Thank you.
Unfortunately I bought this game this year while I been possible buy it 4 years ago.
But now I have enough content to enjoy game longer.
Hope rogue core will be same. Gonna buy it.

[visual depot]

rogue core will be my excuse to buy a new pc

[swift plinth]

Rogue Core is on my "buy at pre-release" list

by the way, is there any way to get on a quality assurance/testing list for Rouge Core? I would be more than happy to help.

[median sleet]

no

[swift plinth]

🙁

[median sleet]

Only way to play Rogue Core RN is to become a developper at GSG

or a DRGtuber that gets invited to the office

[swift plinth]

ok but sad

[visual depot]

just become a DRGtuber

[oblique fog]

Dw hope it will be same performance as DRG

U always can use low quality :D

I hope they gonna allow us moding rogue core

[olive narwhal]

Probably some losses with the jump to ue5

[cobalt ridge]

theyre using ue5 for rogue core?

[tall plume]

yes

[visual depot]

I'm not so sure about that

Doesn't matter tho I want a new pc anyways

[oblique fog]

I have 2060 super and I hope its enough

[oblique fog]

Same but dw
GSG can't make high performance games so it will be fine with any pc.
low quality on grandmother 2010 year lattop enough to play lol

[visual depot]

Damn GSG, I wouldn't take that if I were you

[oblique fog]

Same

I hope for price

Like on sale when it comes out.

[hollow bear]

Vogue Core 💅

[visual depot]

Demure Core

[upper nest]

So uh
Balancing roguelikes is a big deal.

[dim sage]

will the game be free ?

[upper nest]

I really hope it's a priority

No

[visual depot]

No

[upper nest]

It won't

[visual depot]

also

roguelike is like that game hades?

or

uhm

[dim sage]

okay

[upper nest]

Dead Cells, Nuclear Throne, Hades...

[shrewd glen]

The balance will happen 4 years after the thing is introduced.

[visual depot]

I see ty

[upper nest]

Risk of Rain 1 and 2...

That

[visual depot]

Rick of Rain

[upper nest]

Lol

But yeah

[mossy ruin]

roguelite

but yeah

[visual depot]

Ok ty

but yeah

[upper nest]

Balancing a PVE and roguelike or...lite... is extremely different and needs a lot of work

[visual depot]

so basically a roguelite is a guaranteed game over and you are expected to get better and better until you can beat it?

or

[tall plume]

risk of rain design is wildly different to how most games are balanced

it's an outlier

[upper nest]

True

Just thought it up

[mossy ruin]

rogue likes were originally turn based, and the map was a grid, and there was no meta progression
games straying from that formula are called rogue lites

[upper nest]

Oh

I thought it was just rogue but lite

[visual depot]

yeah so basically

[upper nest]

That's nice to know though

[visual depot]

you will always die at some point

if I understand this correctly

but there's progression

[mossy ruin]

or you can also just win

but yeah

[visual depot]

lame

it's better to DIE

[upper nest]

Dead Cells is the perfect example

[visual depot]

do you win there?

[upper nest]

Yeah

[visual depot]

oh ok

[upper nest]

Anyway

Rogue Core

Balance be good

Or game be 💀

[visual depot]

balance as in

?
