rogue-core-chat

[native monolith]

most of the upgrade stuff is still wip iirc but yeah expenite is looking like weapons and perks

[olive narwhal]

The weapons coming with modifications has me interested

[native monolith]

Can’t wait for cyro cannon with the perk bonus damage to burning enemies

[hazy tulip]

call it extinguisher

[native monolith]

it would actually be really good if the buff would apply to the temp shock hit

[broken flame]

I want a Katana Cannon

[wheat pewter]

rogue core rumored to have two gamemodes:
Rogue - you kinda go rogue on the company's property
Core - could be the core experience, could be your wildest dream

[stray glacier]

That would be much less practical than a regular gun

[broken flame]

I don't need practicality

[cunning cargo]

🔥✍️

[vagrant scaffold]

If —if— the lighting mechanics are the same as in DRG, then Rogue Core will be what it takes for people to finally admit the scout flare gun isn't that good. Watch everyone skip it in favor of another utility item.

Let's say the answer is yes. You're still going to have to deal with the possibility of other teammates getting to pick the item before you do.

[glad sonnet]

Something I've been wondering about during the livestream's leaked enemy roster are these guys and what their deal is "ED_Spider_ExploderTankGhost_Corrupted_BXE" and "ED_Tallboy_Assaulter". Is it just me or do these placeholder names almost sound like mechanical enemies*?

[young vessel]

you

unfortunately, they removed the ghost bulk detonator.............. i was so excited to see their return........ 😢 #rogue-core-chat message

[heavy solstice]

what will be the technical requirements youll need for Rogue Core?

[native monolith]

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

Probable to change though

[stray glacier]

Do you not like seeing?!?!

Flare guns are the second best support tool , first is shield

[vagrant scaffold]

Standard issue flares give more than enough light for most situations.

Setting your graphics to high settings also helps.

[stray glacier]

I have ultra settings and still can't see shit

[vagrant scaffold]

Don't know what to tell you, I also play on Ultra. And on a low res monitor.

[olive narwhal]

I feel like your monitors blackness Levels would probably pay a part

[vagrant scaffold]

Got 50% brightness according to the Nvidia app.

[olive narwhal]

Thats brightness how black you stuff can get is seperate

So visibility can really change from screen to screen(ignoring your eyes)

All this to say the importance of scouts flares or flares in general can really change from person to person

But im also assuming that rogue core might have so other support tools that it will probably be competing with

[heavy solstice]

Hope stays the same, so i can run it as well as DRG

[pure vessel]

Mechanics-wise I wouldn't rule it out, but an actual slug/snail-like creature to me fits more with DRG. I have a prototype in DRG for an enemy that's snail-like.

No.

Not something we currently have, but we ARE looking into systems where you can affect what can appear OR exclude something from appearing.

But this will likely just be exclusive to personal upgrade pools.

[pure vessel]

You porbably need to adjust the gamma settings.

[cerulean shuttle]

how is the game gonna do resupplies

[median sleet]

add it so we can turn it into a Discord emote. Some of the mods will use it a lot

[median sleet]

IIRC there are weapon crates in missions

[chrome basin]

if you think about it only leaf lovers needs flares real dwarfs used to be ok with just a candle

[tall plume]

don't know what you mean

[pure vessel]

Ammo crates in the caves

[tiny beacon]

tried and true

[fringe narwhal]

New variant of lootbugs that eat lead and thus poop out bullets

[olive hound]

Lootbug crates (they ate an ammo crate).

or maybe we could call them... Lootcrates 😆

[stray glacier]

I hope this game has gambling 🎰 🎰 🎰

[olive narwhal]

Not sure since balatro got a high age rating over it and drg had to sacrifice either drinking or smoking for its rating

But the devs probably know more about the rating stuff then I

[olive hound]

The gunner has a cigar (in login screen)

[olive narwhal]

Doesn't show in game beyond that does it

[olive hound]

Yep, only in login screen.

[stray glacier]

Gunner is canonically addicted to smoking

[olive hound]

Having a smoking gun makes sense i guess

[tall plume]

and there's a reason why it's not ingame

which is age rating

gambling is out of the picture

[stray glacier]

Drg already has gambling

Because of cargo crates

But it was a joke anyways

[mossy ruin]

not really gambling

[sleek swallow]

it has to have more of a resemblance to gambling, doesn't actually have to be anything like gambling and you'll get the dumb age rating
cough balatro cough

[olive hound]

Yeah or like CS and their weapons skins

[tall plume]

the better joke is saying blank cores are gambling

[stray glacier]

If balatro is gambling, cargo crates are gambling.

[olive hound]

They did balatro dirty ngl

[fringe narwhal]

Haha, tf2 and CS crates cannot be opened in the Netherlands because of gambling laws

:D

[cerulean shuttle]

how often do you get new guns

and what if you just wanna keep a gun

[native monolith]

I think there’s actually an opportunity for a poker table now

The only reason it doesn’t exist in drg is the games already out and it gets weird with content warnings

But it’s a new game now…

[native monolith]

It gets even worse because the dev literally wrote it into their will that balatro cannot be used for actual gambling iirc

[olive narwhal]

It would probably get the balatro treatment

[native monolith]

Yeah it’s really still up to them if they want to do that

But I’d advocate for it

Just add a voice line when you lose of ”this is why you don’t gamble kids” and the problem is solved

[olive narwhal]

I doubt its that simple but i suppose its a wait and see

[native monolith]

Yeah it’s not

If they add it I’m pretty sure it’s instant pegi 18

[cerulean shuttle]

wait what about overclocks

what will overclocks do in rogue core

will they exist

[tall plume]

#rogue-core-chat message

[native monolith]

iirc they said they exist but they’re still figuring out how to implement them

Yeah that

[cerulean shuttle]

thanks big man

[native monolith]

If you look at messages from Anders and type a keyword there’s a solid 50% chance you’ll get an answer to a question lel

[sinful yew]

Do we have any information about potential date of alpha\beta and who will be able to play it?

[olive narwhal]

Pins

For the first part

2nd part nothing is known

[sinful yew]

😔

[native monolith]

Q2 2025 is pre alpha

The early access launches in Q4

[frigid path]

We know for sure that ||The Devs|| will be able to play

[hollow bear]

So unfair

[neat acorn]

will we have an official release of the core stone track once Rogue Core drops? please I am begging you

[tired canyon]

do we know if mission control is going to be in rogue core?

[hollow bear]

Nah we gotta deal with his brother, Objective Management, instead.

[olive hound]

More like Expedition Command

[severe nymph]

I'm sure people ask this like every other day but is there a date for when a alpha version of the game is gonna come out?

[olive hound]

Closed alpha is Q2
Early Acces is Q4

[severe nymph]

What's the Q mean

[humble otter]

Quarter

Year is split into 4 quarters

[severe nymph]

Oooh okay

So this year?

[humble otter]

Ye

[olive hound]

Q2 is April-May-June
Q4 is Oct-Nov-Dec

[severe nymph]

Baller

[olive hound]

I hope so yes

[severe nymph]

Thank you vro

[native monolith]

Yes

[stray glacier]

Mission control is canonically immortal

[severe nymph]

Good for him

[dusty laurel]

A whole year 😭

[oak locust]

I kinda want a mining mech in this game

I feel that would be cool

Or like a power suit or something

[young vessel]

what about a powerful pickaxe, or like an ability that makes your pickaxe do some kind of powerful attack or something

[oak locust]

Almost like... a power attack

[young vessel]

that'd be a good name for it!

[dusty laurel]

Dual flame throwers be better

Or steam punk gloves that fire fire balls.

[native monolith]

About 4 months or so if you’re lucky

Presumably, I’d image the alpha is lottery

[ionic robin]

Is there going to be cross play for rogue core?

[long breach]

Doubt it

Because cross play in general is a huge undertaking

[brave oriole]

If cross play was planned, I assume we would have heard about it by now, so best to assume it's not coming.

[wheat pewter]

there indeed is going to be no crossing of the plays in this new "interactive visual experience" known as rogueus coreus

[pure vessel]

Age ratings was a mistake. Giving UK and the US the responsibility of rating games was an even bigger mistake.

[tiny beacon]

age is such an overused shorthand for way too many things that don't develop in parallel. Dwarven kids just drink from birth

[stray glacier]

Dwarves are smarter drunk

[olive hound]

and happier

[royal axle]

and more handsome, too!

[stray glacier]

Dwarves don't shower anything except their beard

Saves them time but uses a lot of shampoo

[fringe narwhal]

Dwarven hairdressers probably the richest dwarfs

[stray glacier]

Dwarven shampoo manufacturers are the richest companies

Dwarves buy beard shampoo by the barrel and just dunk their beard it it

[twilit token]

does that mean driller is the most frugal, since he doesn't have a beard?

[stray glacier]

Driller was punished for his war crimes with the worst punishment a dwarf can experience: having your beard shaved

[fringe narwhal]

He got his beard stuck in his drills

Driller acting like he did something cool

[wheat pewter]

new: developer confirms that rogue core will not feature farting by the dwarves

[hollow bear]

Shut it all down

[orchid berry]

whats the point anymore

[devout scarab]

maybe mules can fart instead

[tall plume]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DI8gKNtcxQc

Rogue Core leaks everywhere!
(I'm joking a bit but still: lots of stuff to hear and see)

[native monolith]

Ye this was a nice one

Cool they brought an artist in

[tall plume]

yeah, was nice to have Arvid around for the stream

[olive narwhal]

Good stream led to peak meme

[olive hound]

||Expenite Lootbug? We're rich!||

[pure vessel]

https://tenor.com/view/mr-burns-laughing-laughing-hysterically-laughing-and-crying-lol-gif-20390383

[cerulean shuttle]

is rogue core gonna add things that do stuff

or things that don't do stuff

[tall plume]

yesn't

[hollow bear]

Pretty sure they said it'll be stuff that does things

[delicate flax]

when rogue core launches i will eat bread

[pine skiff]

Does this imply you will not eat bread until rogue core launches

[delicate flax]

i will eat a bread substitute

(bread)

until rogue core launches

[wheat pewter]

rumor: rogue core could only consist of 20% gameplay and 80% cut scenes, the game director states "for rogue core we want to do more (uhh) unskippable animations... we felt like unskippable cutscenes were given a bad name by (other) companies [...] we tried something similar with deep rock galactic for the (uhh) matrix cores and hope to not let the players down with full two minute animations between each level in rogue core."

[old swift]

only two minutes? isn't that the length of the core forging animation?

[median sleet]

They should turn Rogue Core into a movie

or a Netflix exclusive series

[olive hound]

Don't forget the QTE!

[paper schooner]

Coop QTE 😉

[olive hound]

Bwahahahaha.
Perfect!

[uneven lichen]

Has there been any information if cosmetics obtained in drg transfers to rogue core?

[hollow bear]

It was mentioned on stream a while back. They don't have any current intentions to tie DRG and RC together via systems or cosmetics.

[tall plume]

They've also said a few times in this channel that this won't happen

as they don't want people to feel like they're missing out on content if they didn't buy DRG

[olive narwhal]

Got a pin from anders saying that much

As well

[olive hound]

but they are

[uneven lichen]

Thanks for that, good to know

I will miss the biohazard suits

[olive hound]

waiting on the DRG x Rogue Core collab

[cobalt ridge]

it already happened

[frigid path]

Do it like an old spider-man game, the button inputs appear a couple frames after you’re supposed to input them

[native monolith]

There will be no crossover in progression between the games

[native monolith]

They’re different games

Obviously if you play rogue core you should also play DRG because DRG is cool but the idea is you don’t have to or feel forced to

[tall plume]

they were making a joke, about missing out on DRG because it's a great game

[native monolith]

Exactly

I can never tell though so I just make sure :(

Sarcasm doesn’t translate well through the internet

[tall plume]

no worries, just making sure myself it was received as such

🤝

[olive hound]

Sorry friend, i will make sure i am joking next time

[native monolith]

It’s fine, this is a issme not an issue

[elder glen]

I will make an edible robot action figure and bite its shiny metal butt if we get Rogue Core news tomorrow

I hope I don't regret saying this, I don't feel like making anything like that

[tall plume]

devs, drop everything, we need RC right NOW!

[elder glen]

stop everything

Kris

get the Rogue Core

sorry, that joke was horrible

and I don't think I even said it right

[carmine zenith]

Rouge corn

[elder glen]

oh

[carmine zenith]

No masked links

[elder glen]

alright

sorry

[carmine zenith]

We're not gonna spend all day playing link roulette and checking every one of those. Put it out in the open

[elder glen]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1197794389037158411/1329163857867964507/9gsd4a.jpg?ex=678957ce&is=6788064e&hm=f703c9f5325ec73cfcc4b225fea75e1332dcd943e9508448bed93905cb653f14&

that was my terrible joke

that seems a bit aggressive to be honest, it was an accident

the way it was an accident is I didn't know what a masked link was so I didn't know what exactly was against the rules

[carmine zenith]

Aggressive would have been being issued a ban/mute for it

Instead it got removed and you got told in chat "hey don't do that", which isn't even a slap on the wrist

[elder glen]

I know

[elder glen]

this phrase just for some reason makes me feel like a small child being scolded. I'm probably just being sensitive.

I think I understood perfectly well after you told me the rule and deleted my message

that last part just seems unnecessary

but again, I'm probably just too sensitive about this

[native monolith]

They aren’t working on DRG at all rn iirc

It’s just rogue core

[tall plume]

I know

[median sleet]

Yeah, they're too busy working on DRG:S, Darkswarm and Spellrogue

[native monolith]

Yeah, props to gsg for managing to develop 4 games at once, it feels like there should be 4 companies across it but somehow they manage

[median sleet]

Crazy how they're doing all this with only 3 devs

[elder glen]

DRG:S is a different company

[tall plume]

https://tenor.com/view/thats-the-joke-ranier-wolfcastle-mc-bain-the-simpsons-stand-up-comedy-gif-4372917

thats ok lad, we're being paid for mining, not thinking

[tall plume]

no worries lol, it's easy to miss context and sarcasm

[median sleet]

I am the stupid one for making mediocre jokes

[elder glen]

.

This is a mediocre joke

Your joke was fine

[glad sonnet]

I just watched a bit of the stream and the artist said that the Edgestalker went through multiple artistic iterations. Is there a chance we can see the concept art for Rogue Core when its released?

[tall plume]

maybe, maybe not
I hope one day we get to have an artbook 😔

[glad sonnet]

Fair enough. I hope so too!

There is cool concept art for DRG, so who knows? Maybe we'll get something

[native monolith]

We got some concept art of early corespawn crawlers; but I do hope we get more

[cerulean shuttle]

is it corespawn or core spawn

in drg it's core spawn, in drg rogue core it's corespawn

[next crater]

hi

He's just a little guy.

[long breach]

Can i eat it?

[tall plume]

no

[long breach]

It looks like i can hold it like a bar then put it in my mouth

Tho i can keep one and let it become a rammer

[wheat pewter]

Rafkan Thrasher

[fringe narwhal]

Little goober!

[icy nebula]

This looks so good!

[paper schooner]

do you mean "should"?

[paper schooner]

I prefer corespawn as one word

[native monolith]

Getting jiggy with it

[native monolith]

I wonder if they grow into rammers or if they’re like glyphids with their roles defined from the second they were born

They referred to thrashers as baby rammers in that stream so I’d say it’s probably the first

[olive hound]

In drg they are called Corespawn.
In Rogue core they will be called Herespawn.

We're already at the core

[native monolith]

Corespawn? More like targetpracticespawn aggaggaagagga

[hollow bear]

Did someone say sporespawn

https://tenor.com/view/brinstar-super-metroid-spore-spore-spawn-eriko-flower-gif-6413756998436411830

[tiny cloud]

because of the long flagela looking tail thing it uh.....it looks a uh...a bit sus

[olive hound]

propulsion appendage

[tiny cloud]

I get that but because of that and the 'body' shape it looks like a uh....swimmer to put it politely

[olive hound]

There's also some viruses how look like it
And you have the Rammer how is also a bigger version (same body structure)

[outer cradle]

What is the general gameplay for rogue core, assuming they didn’t state this directly

[tall plume]

pinned messages for all manner of answers

[outer cradle]

Alright

Also I just realized how eldritch some of the rogue core enemies look

[median sleet]

#drg-chat message

[orchid berry]

is the core gonna rogue

[paper schooner]

Certainly

[cerulean shuttle]

this inconsistency is killing me

metaphorically

[tiny beacon]

the corespawn themselves can kill you physically to balance it out

[paper schooner]

We'll update it across both titles once we can agree on it here.

[cerulean shuttle]

hell yeah

this is the best thing that has ever happened in the history of video games

[wheat pewter]

is rogue core going to contain "deep rock" content?

[orchid berry]

i hope we'll see at least 1 rock

[paper schooner]

Can you clarify what you mean by that?

[carmine zenith]

How many rocks will there be and will they be deep

[paper schooner]

Yes and very

[wheat pewter]

consider renaming the game to "rogued core" for a second please

[carmine zenith]

nice

[stray grail]

will it be downloadable

[wheat pewter]

during the playtest a year ago we indeed were able to download the game, although the plans may have changed by now

[stray grail]

will you be able to use a mouse with this game?

[tall plume]

I suggest you check the store page

which pinned in this channel

[paper schooner]

Ok, I have considered it.

[wheat pewter]

thank you

[carmine zenith]

I would like to suggest that a single 3d model of a corn cob painted red with a bucket of red paint next to it be placed somewhere in the hub

[stray grail]

do we play as elves

[hollow bear]

You will

The rest of us won't

[tall plume]

this is also answered by looking at the store page

[mossy ruin]

you, specifically, will

can you play as molly

[wheat pewter]

pickle cores

[carmine zenith]

How long is the time to pickle

Aka ttp

[paper schooner]

5 at the moment

though we were hoping to get 8 implemented in this sprint

[wheat pewter]

finally sounds promising

[stray grail]

can we throw the pickles

[paper schooner]

We're also going to rename them.

[paper schooner]

No. But you can chose your favorite.

[stray grail]

YES! WOOOOO

[paper schooner]

[paper schooner]

roughly 12 minutes

[tall plume]

[paper schooner]

But you can get there faster if you want.

[wheat pewter]

did core parasite survive development?

[paper schooner]

Yes-ish. They are being problematic though and there is a chance they will be cut / redesigned completely.

They hang out on the ceiling now and can drop down on unexpecting dwarves. Also been renamed already and placed in the "shatterclaw" family.

Will we be getting unique cosmetics in drg unlockable through rogue core

[tall plume]

no

[wheat pewter]

no

[real peak]

That’s unfortunate

[tall plume]

it's FOMO so I wouldn't call it unfortunate, personally

[real peak]

I don’t think that’s what FOMO is

Generally that refers to a time limited promotion

[tall plume]

FOMO means "fear of missing out"

giving things that only applies if you've bought another game is FOMO

at least it falls into that realm for me

[real peak]

Rogue core having DRG tie-in cosmetics would just be a buy-in promotional just like the 12 DLC the game has, imo

[prisma fiber]

If u r buying rogue core just for cosmetics for classic drg that means u have FOMO

[summer tiger]

that is fomo, literally the tactics that EA does with the Battlefield series

[cerulean shuttle]

if you buy rogue core does that mean you receive rogue core

[wheat pewter]

yes

update 2 engineer

[cerulean shuttle]

i wuv engineer <3

so sad he won't be making an appearance in rogue core

[native monolith]

1% chance you get rouge cœur though and your game is permanently in French

[median sleet]

Easter egg where the title screen says Rouge Core instead of Rogue Core like Minceraft

[frigid path]

You can only get DRGs cosmetics if you buy DRG, otherwise you miss out

[neat acorn]

make sure to also buy your friends DRG, so they dont miss out on the cosmetics

[cerulean shuttle]

i don't like those chances

guess i won't buy...

Thank you

[tiny cloud]

hey, so right quick, I'm not sure if this is resolved in DRG or not cause I've not experienced it since like....before OC were added, but is 'chain grabbing' going to be a thing we will have to worry about in Rogue Core? As an example I vividly remember being carried off by a mactera grabber and dragged off to only then be dropped into the awaiting tenticle of an unruly leech, and that just....does not feel good as a player side thing at all.

[native monolith]

I would image not? There’s no grabber enemies confirmed in rogue core

Cave leeches might make an appearance, there was a mention of it on a dev stream I just forgot exactly what the response was

[tiny cloud]

I really hope there's no grabber enemies tbh, do they 'shake things up' sure, but if you are the grabbed player, it's not a fun/enjoyable thing, like, it's not challenging it's just...frustrating?

[native monolith]

I’d prefer disruption, which is what they seem to be doing

Terrain destroying, pushing you around

I’m fine with most of the grabber enemies in drg, I just dislike the mactera ones because they stop you from playing for so long

[tiny cloud]

same, disruption is fine, stealing control is what I dislike

[abstract nebula]

@dusk elk

[pure vessel]

Abseloutely not. However, it wouldn't be out of the question that we can make Rogue Core related cosmetics for DRG.

[pure vessel]

We like the leech, but feel like DRG enemies should be replaced with Rogue Core enemies instead. So we're looking into a COrespawn variant that does the same thing.

[glad sonnet]

really excited for all these Corespawn monsters

Maybe its an unfair question and I dont expect anyone, let alone a dev, to answer it given how early it is to be talking about this, but I wonder how the enemy diversity in Rogue Core and their respective roles will differ from DRG

[paper schooner]

Not yet anyway 😉

[orchid berry]

Corespawn grabber: it just drags you through a rift and kicks you from the lobby

Banished to the shadow realm

[cerulean remnant]

Rogue Core finale takes us to The Seventh Dwarves Brewery where we find the secret of Blacklock Lager (Core Stone juice press)

[median sleet]

Enemy that carries you into a regular DRG mission if it catches you

[wheat pewter]

weren't cave leeches cut from rogue core because it would slow down the gameplay?

[hollow bear]

Core greech

[native monolith]

I’m almost certain there was a stream mention of it but I now cannot find it in the compilation I have of them

Might be one of the un annotated ones

I should go through and do that today

[paper schooner]

A lot of the roles, are basic roles for a horde shooter (in my opinion) and as such they will also be present in RC. For example we need a basic, fairly simple "cannon fodder" enemy. In DRG those were the grunts/slashers/guards and in rogue core we have equivalent Creeper variants.

We also need a slow high HP medium-range enemy that can apply pressure and displace players during a wave without being too dangerous on it's own. That's the DRG Praetorian and RC Clamorhead.

However the exact details of how they fill those roles and how the player engages with them is a place where we can differentiate them so that fighting a Clamorhead will feel different from fighting a Praetorian.

[paper schooner]

Um... don't remember, but they are back now.

[hollow bear]

Will there be a reward style enemy like golden lootbug and Huuli?

Everyone loves mineral explosions

[orchid berry]

im hoping theres gonna be a mimic enemy in rc, something like the nemesis but it could actually blend in

[tall plume]

mimic enemies don't work in the context of horde shooters

best they can do is disguise as another enemy but that not's extremely interesting

camouflaging enemies is the next best thing

[olive hound]

Supply crate mimic

Karl mimic, what you thought was a dwarf shadow, it was really an Enemy.

[orchid berry]

ramrod mimic

after a mission is over theres like a 1% chance going back to the ramrod just kills the whole team and the lobby closes

nothing is affected youre just forcefully booted from the server

[median sleet]

And lootbugs are still in?

[tiny beacon]

as creatures of suffering I'm sure they enjoy the deeper regions

[neat acorn]

what if they're corebugs now

[median sleet]

Turns out the core went rogue because lootbugs were eating it

[final narwhal]

Rough Cord

[south wigeon]

I hope when Rogue Core releases it comes with a Core that has gone Rogue.

[atomic jacinth]

i don't blame the core for going rogue tbh if that's the case

the damn rnd didn't check thoroughly if they wanna look onto core if there are lootbugs gonna eat em alive

[cerulean shuttle]

the rogue has gone core

[paper schooner]

Someone made an expenite lootbug so I guess that's a yes.

[paper schooner]

Yes but they ate expenite and glow green now.

[young vessel]

i hope the evil hexawing that kills 8 dwarves every year wont be in rogue core...

[wary tiger]

Mmm umanite bug

[tiny cloud]

yeah...my big concern was just...I've been, essentially 0ko'd by a mactera grabber before (it was way back, like, pre OC's like I mentioned) where it basically grabbed me through a thin floor, carried me off to a cave leech and alley-ooped me to the leech so I had 0 chance of any counterplay/way to protect myself, nor could my allies really do anything until they got to that part of the cave system, it's the same with the trawlers in a way where, it's not just disruptive, but for one player it turns into 'well this is fun, good game play, sitting here helpless because a single enemy got too close and who knows when I can actually play again', if that makes sense?

[devout scarab]

guilty as charged

[cerulean shuttle]

is expenite edible

i need official confirmation

[elfin ice]

Idk but It sounds expensive

[cerulean shuttle]

also it looks like you can favourite weapons?

or something like that?

[mossy ruin]

what you likely saw is just the marker "I want this" on a upgrade / weapon choice, to let the team know what is your preference

[median sleet]

That's all I needed to know to buy the game

[median sleet]

You're a hero

[steel hearth]

I hope there's also an "I don't want this" marker

[mossy ruin]

why?

[pine skiff]

I hope there's gold so you can ping it and say "this is worthless"

[paper schooner]

What you say completely makes sense.

[steel hearth]

So I can let my team know I'm a cry cannon hating heathen

Or more generally so people can let their teammates know they either don't like a weapon or are just bad with it

[mossy ruin]

simply favourite something else

[tiny cloud]

Glad it does!

[steel hearth]

I might not have a preference for the others, just an anti-preference for one

[rancid aurora]

the rogue has gone rouge

[exotic oyster]

any updates on closed alpha?

[safe steeple]

do the corporate issue beers ever change?

[tiny beacon]

they get free during some events and they have special variants for supporters

oh wait for Rogue Core. I'm sure the Ramrod will be equipped with oily oafs and leaf lovers' at the very least

[safe steeple]

cool thank you!

[ornate parcel]

Is there any information about the closed alpha test in quarter 2? I'd really like to participate.

[tall plume]

no

you know as much as we do

[ornate parcel]

damnit

[fickle abyss]

rogue has the core gone

[cerulean shuttle]

i crave rogue core...

[ornate parcel]

Im reading through the info they gave on steam, and it's really interesting how they're going about with this game compared to DRG. It feels different, but in a good way. I like the idea of a heavily team-focused roguelite centered around communication and making a sort of "team build".

I think I have some ideas for classes or items. I'll probably check rogue core suggestions first, though.

[cerulean shuttle]

each passing second without rogue core is agony...

[ornate parcel]

I bought me this core and I found a rogue in it. What do I do?

[safe steeple]

we love Doretta! all my homies love Doretta!

[pine skiff]

Make a persuasion check to try and get the rogue to join your party

[ornate parcel]

I got a 3. He ate my core!!

[dusty laurel]

There is a perk that allows you to kill or escape what ever grabs you.

[tiny cloud]

I know there is rdknight, but it's limited charges and you shouldn't be FORCED to take a specific active perk (which you can only have 2 of mind) to not get 0ko chain grabbed

doubly so when thin floors and specific terrain objects (like refinery/point extract ramps/platforms) where enemies can hit through it but be untargetable by dwarves

[delicate flax]

you aren't really forced

it's just sound design being bugged that doesn't notify the player of the grab

thin floors and walls are definitely issues though, seen people get grabbed by leeches from behind walls

[cerulean shuttle]

are we gonna get compressed nitra in this game

[native monolith]

Nitra isn’t real

[fathom wren]

the core is roguing

[wheat pewter]

I am so glad escort duty isn't going to be in rogued core

[safe steeple]

so i'm assuming it's possible to get every perk upgrade with the milestones available?

ah wait sorry wrong chat

[neat acorn]

the New and Improved escort duty equivalent will feature you escorting a machine that's slower than you running, but also faster than you walking

[rapid leaf]

any news about the release date?

[wheat pewter]

probably 2028

[tall plume]

for early access: Q4 2025
for 1.0, we don't know

[mossy ruin]

for 1.0, I don't think the devs know either

[grizzled pelican]

Before of silk song

[native monolith]

The cake was a lie :(

[tall plume]

@long breach proof

[long breach]

i saw 😂

i'll still eat it and anything else that tries to eat me

[wraith jay]

yo any info on drop date?

[tall plume]

pinned messages

[wraith jay]

oh nice, oki thank you!

[tiny beacon]

as opposed to dotty who is just slower than us? The real annoyance would be if it bounces you instead of being able to be stood on

[paper schooner]

That is correct.

[tiny beacon]

actually the devs secretly have the game complete already and are just holding out on us until an arbitrary release date

this is how games work trust

[coral tide]

I thought the game was complete for a long time already

[fringe narwhal]

No

[tall plume]

it's not even in closed alpha

[fringe narwhal]

They want to make sure everything works well first

[grizzled pelican]

I believe in you

[tiny beacon]

[orchid berry]

Wait, does this mean season 6 is also gonna be Q4 2025 or later

[humble tapir]

I guess this is the earliest date possible.

[paper schooner]

definitely later, Q4 2025 is the RC early access release. We will make DRG plans after that.

[orchid berry]

plently of time for me to finish up the season 1 and 2 battlepasses then

[fringe narwhal]

Yep

Good to catch up on previous seasons

[wintry cliff]

I just did every season when it came out :3 patiently waiting for a potential closed beta or something

[ionic depot]

May

[brave oriole]

So assuming at least 3 months of development S6 ain’t gonna be till like summer 2026

[median sleet]

They may also still focus on Rogue Core for a while after early access to patch some stuff

[orchid berry]

damn that's gonna be a longer period than pre-Season 5

Sacrifices for a great game, I guess

[ionic depot]

Deep rock galactic
And rogue core are different games
Drg will keep on pushing out seasons and rogue will have it’s own hades slash looting mining shooting going on

[tall plume]

GSG doesn't have the manpower to develop both games at the same time right now, so they have to switch from one to another.

[ionic depot]

That’s why they hiring

[olive narwhal]

They also don't wanna get to big

[tall plume]

well, they've been hiring since they started out as a studio, it's hardly the indication of anything

[ionic depot]

They have 40-50 people

[median sleet]

There's 1 job opening listed on the GSG website

[tall plume]

GSG do want to grow but they've also said they're doing it slowly on purpose and aren't interested in getting too big

[ionic depot]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AlRLgVpsf8U

Only video i found next to my assumptions

Bare with me

[tall plume]

what assumptions?

[ionic depot]

My blabbering cousin dwarf

They are not solid sources

[tall plume]

I don't even know what you're talking about at this point, I'm not gonna lie

You're preaching to the choir here

[median sleet]

They may start developing both titles simultaniously at some point. But that's just not the plan right now. And might never happen. All focus is on Rogue Core now.

DRG will still recieve seasons, but it's just gonna take a while before we get s6

[slim viper]

however long it takes I think most people will agree that the wait will be worth it

[ionic depot]

No need to lie honesty will bring you further

[tall plume]

what?

https://tenor.com/view/ryan-gosling-critics-choice-awards-side-eye-confused-clapping-gif-14741917063569043913

I have no idea what you're talking about lol

[frigid path]

Someone’s had too much red sugar

[ionic depot]

Yes

[tall plume]

I really wanna understand what you're trying to say, so bear with me.
You said this like it was some sort of novelty. Most people talking in this chat regularly know about this info.
They also know about GSG not giving up on DRG (because they've stated it themselves multiple times on stream - some of that can be found in the pinned message of this channel)

Everything you said, we agree with and know about it already

I don't get where the "lying part" is coming from

[ionic depot]

Thanks for the info 👍

[tall plume]

we got a pinned reddit post in here who covers some developer FAQ, if you're interested btw

#rogue-core-chat message

this message

it covers a good bit of the questions people had when the Rogue Core announcement came out, as well as some extra stuff

[ionic depot]

Thank you @tall plume I appreciate it

[slim viper]

I haven't seen a stream in a little while - DRG wont be "ending" next update? (seasons ending not updates/patches)

[tall plume]

no, it won't

feel free to check the same message I've just linked

[slim viper]

honestly amazing news

abslutely, thank you!

[tall plume]

it's a bit sad how many people still think DRG is going to end despite the devs literally saying it everywhere that DRG development is going to keep going, only slower lol

I ain't blaming it on people though, it's just how things are

info are getting drowned out by sheer volume of stuff going on through social medias

[slim viper]

The transparency of GSG as a company is incredibly admirable. As silly as it sounds, there are so many gaming horror stories of companies saying they will continue a series only to scrap it

[tall plume]

best we can do is spread the word

[young vessel]

that all depends on what "slower" means, it could either mean a few more months or "updates are coming Soon ™️ "

[slim viper]

GSG is probably the only company that has the ability to follow through as consistently as they have been

[tall plume]

it's very context dependent so it's not really something that can be quantified

[slim viper]

I am incredibly interested in how they said season 5 drg will be a prologue to rogue core

[young vessel]

but can it be quantritefied

[tall plume]

not right now

[slim viper]

I've been hyped for core since it was announced but that makes me want to play to play it all the more!

[young vessel]

right now?

quantrite confirmed? real and true and trust?

[tall plume]

who knows?

maybe I meant it was already quantrified

you'll never know for sure, and the quantrification will remain a mystery

[slim viper]

maybe the real quantry were the friends we made along the way

[orchid berry]

is there any chance, however small, that rogue core will have dwarves in it

a man can dream

[olive hound]

ye

and flying molly aka Flolly.

[ionic depot]

Not to brag

I bought most of the cosmetics to support them

[ionic depot]

Would be sick to have a shootout with other dwarves enemies while getting mobbed by bugs

[olive hound]

¿Something like the Nosk from hollow knight?
looks like a dwarf, sounds like a dwarf, but it's not a dwarf

[ionic depot]

I was thinking more about other companies of dwarves or Rogue dwarves

[tall plume]

humanoid enemies are probably off the list, just like in DRG

[ionic depot]

I leave that up to the developers

Only time will tell

It would be nice

different factions.
Etc

[tall plume]

I say that because it's something they've said "problably not" to a few times

[ionic depot]

Pretty clear for now

[median sleet]

I have been confirmed for the game though, and I am kinda humanoid. Dunno if I'll be an enemy

[ionic depot]

What do you think?

[tall plume]

Personally, I'd rather not have humanoid enemies in the game, at least not made of flesh
humanoid look-alike robots would be fine though

and i guess crawlers are humanoid shaped in a way, but they walk on ceilings and crawl on all 4s

[ionic depot]

Can you elaborate why you rather won’t have humanoid enemies?

[tall plume]

I just feel like it wouldn't fit in the game and how its art, ambiance, and universe was designed

[paper schooner]

The Corespawn are about as humanoid as we are going to go.

[hollow bear]

Damn, that means no Scruffy the Janitor

[frigid path]

They’re more human than me

[young vessel]

what about a big corespawn fella with a dwarf-shaped tongue like the angler fish from the spongebob movie

i think thats a good idea 🧑‍🦲 👍

[glossy heath]

can devs give us any news?

[tall plume]

they did, it's all over this channel and its pinned messages

[glossy heath]

@tall plume the last one were is youtube stream?

[tall plume]

yeah

[mossy ruin]

they talked a bit with the artist, yes

in terms of news, we didn't get any in that stream (anything new at least), but it's still neat if you want to hear their perspective

[tall plume]

they talk here and there too in the channel

Mostly Anders and The Devil Knows Why, if you wanna look at their messages

there are little tidbits of info

[glossy heath]

I understand that development is ongoing and some things may change, but due to the lack of news, it seems like everything has stopped.

[mossy ruin]

the big on the horizon stream was literally only two months ago

also this #rogue-core-chat message

if you want news, you should probably be in the newsletter

I think we are given plenty

then again, I am a fan of hollow knight

[tall plume]

🤝

[cerulean shuttle]

i am a big fan of rogue core

i travelled to the future and i can confirm it is very good

though it fell off after gsg took over sweden they started neglecting the game

oh yeah also ikea was renamed the rogue core store, it rhymes

[upbeat tangle]

Go to the rogue core store more. For door four. Cause door four had more lore’n’spores with s’mores. And boars. Rogue core store boar war!

[paper schooner]

🤯

[cerulean shuttle]

wait is mission control gonna be in rogue core

[paper schooner]

Yes, though we are still figuring out to what extent.

[hollow bear]

bartender

[fringe narwhal]

Why are we ending bart

[rocky dove]

damn mission control got demoted

[hollow bear]

beats the hell out of babysitting four rambunctious dwarves

[cerulean shuttle]

give us mission control as a playable character

(he only gets a pickaxe)

that reminds me, what about steeve

is best glyphid returning

[fresh jetty]

You think Mission Control can lift a pickaxe? We’d probably play as him behind a desk

[atomic jacinth]

the pins in this channel are loaded with info, check em out

[vague orchid]

i hope alpha comes soon..im dying to have another PVE game to play!

[upbeat tangle]

Could we get a pin explaining what we currently know about the classes in rogue core?

[tiny beacon]

oh like that one message I sent ages ago

#drg-chat message this'n

[olive narwhal]

Someone has been compiling a google doc on rogue core stuff in general

That is also pinne

D

[upper cedar]

Was is rogue core? I only vaguely remember watching a trailer of it and think it’s an endless runner of sorts (deeper u go, u get upgrades and enemies get tougher)

[tiny beacon]

it is partly like that but it isn't endless

[median sleet]

Check pins for info

[cerulean shuttle]

rogue core isn't real

it's an illusion

[orchid berry]

mission control can't tell the difference between a monkey wrench and a glyphid's arse, theres no chance

[wintry cliff]

a 50 man strong dev team is barely enough for 1 game of this magnitude, let alone 2

and I dont think everyone at gsg is a dev

[olive narwhal]

Some are server people

Got programmers, artist's and such

[hollow bear]

They also have that one guy who heats up hot pockets all day for the rest of the team

[frigid path]

and content creators who are||’nt|| allowed to leave anytime

[olive narwhal]

Cant forget the coffee machine

The true workhorse

[orchid berry]

also the lootbug caretaker

havent heard from them in a while but they're probably fine

[olive narwhal]

Probably

[carmine zenith]

Most important member of the team by far

[long breach]

Arvid was just on that rogue core teaser stream tho

[hollow bear]

Wish I could eat hot pockets in the crying room

[orchid berry]

but are we sure it was him

it could be the lootbug

we dont know what its capable of

[warm badge]

how get in close alpha?

[olive narwhal]

Not known yet

Probably through the steam thingy when the time comes if the streams are anything to go by

[gritty raptor]

I haven't followed in a while, do we have like a time frame for the release date? or at least a beta?

I'm just curious how far along the game is

[olive narwhal]

Pins

[olive hound]

Rogue Core needs what DRG doesn't have...

🥪

[elfin ice]

Sandwiches!

I love those!

[verbal wave]

heavy update

[cerulean shuttle]

is this game gonna have dance moves or is it gonna be bad

there is no other option

[real peak]

It will only have freestyle bluegrass jam sessions so I guess it will be bad

[oak locust]

What differences is there gonna be from this game and DRG?

[oak locust]

Sandvich

[brave oriole]

See pinned for known info

The basic premise is DRG but roguelike (hence the name).

[oak locust]

Sweet

[cerulean shuttle]

technically DRG is a roguelike

[cobalt ridge]

It is not

Drg, the regular game, has no elements like rogue to call it that

[median sleet]

Is the expected time for a Rogue core stage still 10 mins/ stage with 5 stages every run?

[hollow bear]

Yeh, something around that. I know they said 40ish minutes roughly

[paper schooner]

That's the baseline but we're open to having different lengths of runs with some maybe stretching out to 90min for the long ones

[frigid path]

Each stage should take a year

[wheat river]

With my aim every run take less than 10 min 😎

(first stage is hard 🥺 )

[tall plume]

90 min? god damn

[young vessel]

each stage should be a metaphor for the 5 stages of grief after leaving a dwarf behind

[hollow bear]

https://tenor.com/view/skill-issue-urge-resist-cat-gif-25536160

[paper schooner]

We're even kicking around the idea of an endless game mode

But 90min is a hypothetical we have not ourselves tried making or playing a 9 stage run

[olive narwhal]

9 stage runs sound like they will be pretty interesting and fun

[wheat river]

I play driller for a reason

[frigid path]

-# cause they’re the best class obv

[paper schooner]

But also a bit tiring I think. The overall intensity is a higher than a DRG mission.

[tall plume]

yeah, it might be an issue

[olive narwhal]

I suppose it would be

[native monolith]

AKA, “when you crash you win”

[orchid berry]

Can we play as a barrel in rogue core

[young vessel]

i think the closest we could get is if they have some kind of Barrel cosmetic. like Barrel Armor, or something

[upbeat tangle]

What we didn't know we needed

[olive hound]

Endless?
Hmmm, i would prefer a longer version of the base 5 stage structured mission.

Feels like you will burn faster in an endless environment. (my opinion)

[tall plume]

I like how Risk of Rain handles it, personally

where you can loop for as long as you want but can also just ends the run if you want to

I feel like it's a good balance

[upbeat tangle]

Ye, Risk of Rain 2 is my favorite roguelike, period

For so many reasons

[tall plume]

wouldn't say myself it's my favourite, but definitely a game I've enjoyed a ton

same for RoR1

[paper schooner]

No,

[paper schooner]

Never heard of it.

[tall plume]

and we don't have barrel armor in DRG either

the playable barrel dream is still out of reach 😔

[paper schooner]

It would never be part of the standard flow but as an optional game-mode unlocked later in the game. But I personally am not a huge fan of "endless" modes but it is someting that has come up regularly in discussions.

[paper schooner]

where it belongs

[tall plume]

https://tenor.com/view/daeth-funi-periflight-dies-from-gif-22212023

[olive hound]

Maybe a "length" modifier or a "marathon" that could be changed

More segments on a mission

[pine skiff]

Barrel armour existed in DRG, a long time ago, when Karl was a greenbeard

[cerulean shuttle]

endless would be sick

24h endless rogue core challenge

[muted sorrel]

FUCK

[fresh jetty]

psst devs, you should add barrel armor for 24 hours and then immediately remove it

it'd be funne

[muted sorrel]

Yeuh

I wanna be like bosco

[paper schooner]

That's just a myth

[final narwhal]

Top 10 hoxxes conspiracy theories
10. barrel armor in rogue core
Thank you for coming to my TED talk

[muted sorrel]

Barrel armor existed, Bosco just wears it. You can't hide the truth!

[pine skiff]

Barrel armour actually exists in DRG, there are just no suits available because they're all in use by the barrels

Gotta protect themselves from being kicked into the launch bay

[elfin ice]

Agree about not being a huge fan of inf mode. Like, it's something a lot of players claim they want, but... the reality is different. it can work. But not always.

[grizzled pelican]

Wait what if rogue core doesn't have barrel

[young vessel]

boycott

[final narwhal]

We riot

[south wigeon]

I just

man

I'm so excited for Rogue Core

[paper schooner]

Me too!

[neat acorn]

will there be a new discord server for rogue core once it drops, or is everything going to be condensed into this place?

[uneven carbon]

Will rogue core be as deep as DRG?

[forest rain]

Oh it’ll be deep alright

Deeper than ya mum

[hollow vector]

💀

[uneven carbon]

I will be deep diving into your dad tonight. And I will make sure his core will be rogued.

[neat acorn]

the cave leech cluster:

[orchid berry]

can we tame crawlers in rogue core like we tame steeves

if so, i propose a name for them

steeeve

[tacit creek]

[paper schooner]

Not 100% sure yet. Personally I'm for keeping it in one place.

[paper schooner]

That's impossible. But you can be taimed by them instead.

[cerulean shuttle]

can we ram the ramrod into hoxxes

[orchid berry]

i mean, i assume thats why its called the ramrod

[cerulean shuttle]

erm major nerd moment

[tall plume]

as far as we know, everything Rogue Core will be in there

[cerulean shuttle]

oh so including infinite free copies of the game?

[tall plume]

the game is intended to be more serious in tone, so that will be likely reflected in their attitude

though I don't doubt there will be banters, still

[tall plume]

since it's all virtual copies, we could argue we already have infinite copies of RC

[cerulean shuttle]

well then gimme one

you can pet them with your pickaxe

Or c4

[cerulean shuttle]

no don't do that

[hollow vector]

Whyyy

[cerulean shuttle]

murder isn't based

[hollow vector]

Theyre alive tho

Resting on ground

Maybe they will finally play some Dice

[cerulean shuttle]

dice are boring

anyway back on track

rogue core amirite guys

expenite yarghhh

i want expenite on my oily oafs

[olive hound]

Crunchy expenite

[round kestrel]

Hey folks! When do we expect the next teaser/info drop?

[tall plume]

probably for the DRG anniversary, at the end of February

[cerulean shuttle]

when are they adding luigi to rogue core

[orchid berry]

on tuesday i think

might be wednesday

[cerulean shuttle]

i bet someone's gonna try remaking rogue core as a mod in drg

obviously you couldn't do that well because of how weapons work but you know

[olive hound]

Replacing all enemies for Corespawn Crawlers?

🤔

[cerulean shuttle]

maybe

i wonder how difficult it is to import models and animations

like could someone just take a model and animation from rogue core and put them into regular drg?

[olive hound]

Somewhat yeah

But you will need the files, files that only GSG have

🤷‍♂️

[cerulean shuttle]

people will get their hands on em when the game comes out

[olive hound]

But by that point you will have Rogue core (even if it's only a beta phase)

[cerulean shuttle]

well yes

but some people are poorer than others

some people won't be able to buy rogue core if you get what i mean

[tiny beacon]

you could but it would be unstable

[olive hound]

this 👆

And the bugs (not talking the DRG ones)

[cerulean shuttle]

someone would probably still do it

maybe just for fun as a passion project but you know

[cerulean shuttle]

also are there only custom engineered skins in the rogue core trailer?

pretty sure every weapon in there has custom engineered on it

[mortal flame]

They mentioned cosmetics they got on were all just imported and borrowed assets from DRG

[olive hound]

Maybe the Reclaimers are more like a Madmax kind of Dwarf

Making guns from scrap

Or a survivalist kind of Dwarf

[thin siren]

Where is rogue core !!?

😩

[tall plume]

in production

[young vessel]

i thought it was at the center of hoxxes

[floral vigil]

Those questions can only be answered by the likes of the mind goblin

[native monolith]

It’s unfortunate the mind goblin died of hava though

[delicate flax]

I killed the mind goblin.

[floral vigil]

Lies! We eradicated hava with the support of the sugondeez

[pine skiff]

But when is Rogue Core 2?

[tiny beacon]

magenta core

[fringe narwhal]

Ourple

[cerulean shuttle]

great things come to those who wait

[upbeat tangle]

Like dual flamethrowers and rogue core!

[clever orbit]

i really like the design but i wish they werent plastic

[tall plume]

what's the problem with them being plastic ?

[clever orbit]

makes them feel fake to me since theyre not ceramic or metal

causetheyre mugs

[tall plume]

#drg-chat message
mght wanna read this then

[clever orbit]

yeah i supposed that would be the case

which is okay of course

[onyx chasm]

yeah uh can we get a leaf lover mug

👉 👈

[cerulean shuttle]

i've been waiting for at least 30 minutes

gimme

[cobalt ridge]

wait longer

[cerulean shuttle]

that's ridiculous i'll be dead in like 60 years do i look like i can wait that long

[fringe narwhal]

Is Rogue Core coming to the Dreamcast

[median sleet]

If you refer to your PC as Dreamcast, then yes it is

[fringe narwhal]

I'll take it

[thin spire]

Will Rouge Core go to console?

[tall plume]

after 1.0 maybe

[cerulean shuttle]

is rogue core coming to the nintendo wii

with motion controls

[hollow bear]

yes. it's going to be in wii sports.

a screen on the bowling ball

[lean void]

Gods i wish we had a time frame that this was launching

[delicate flax]

I'm going to install steamos and then run drg rc on a dreamcast

[thin siren]

and VR

[cerulean shuttle]

is rogue core gonna have the engineer's hat and goggles as a cosmetic or is the game gonna suck

also how do colours work exactly

like in regular drg the engineer is red the scout is blue et cetera et cetera but how will they work in rogue core

[long breach]

They have diff characters in rogue core

[cerulean shuttle]

so the phase suits will define your colour then

[long breach]

Not sure if they are color coded. But they have different suit abilities

[finite laurel]

Might just be an icon next to your name or something, since the suits are way less character defining than classes are

[cerulean shuttle]

colours would still make it easier to differentiate teammates

maybe you can pick your own colour?

[unkempt lagoon]

Will that include Xbox One as well as both the Series X and S? Or is it for new gen? Cause it's annoying that new gen games are purchasable on Xbox One but not playable.

[tall plume]

unless I'm mistaken, it only gonna be on new gen

[unkempt lagoon]

If new gen only, then that's honestly disappointing.

[brave oriole]

“New” gen is like 5 years old at this point, so it’s not surprising

[unkempt lagoon]

Exactly, plus Xbox One is currently 11 years and 2 months old.

[south wigeon]

Will Rogue Core be a Rogue Like, or Lite?

[carmine zenith]

It will be a Rogue Core

[south wigeon]

I see, this changes everything!

[pure vessel]

It's highly unlikely that we'll make it for Xbox One and PS4. They're too old.

[delicate flax]

Hello anders

[pure vessel]

Hello

[delicate flax]

Bye anders

[pure vessel]

Rogue-lite.

[fringe narwhal]

And here I was hoping it'd drop for the Wii. Truly a sad day.

[pure vessel]

I would be happy if it could ocme out for switch 2, but I don't think the Switch 2 is powerful enough 😦

[olive narwhal]

Don't know yet so i guess it can change

But it is nintendo so they like to do their own thing

[fringe narwhal]

Yeah, Switch 2 specs are still unknown

But I presume you'd probably have to compromise a lot for Rogue Core

Didn't stop Steel Wool from releasing Security Breach on the regular Switch tho

[olive narwhal]

But if we are going based entirely based on rumours its got more ram then a series s

[fringe narwhal]

Oh?

[olive narwhal]

But i would assume getting it running on series s would probably have its compromises

Not saying it would necessarily be worth the effort of putting it on switch 2

[fringe narwhal]

DRG on the go

[median sleet]

I heard the ram is slower than series S though

[fringe narwhal]

Wait there's Steam Deck for portable dwarves

Nvm

[olive narwhal]

Seires s is 8+2gb of ram

[fringe narwhal]

For a console like that, that's not a lot

[olive narwhal]

The 2gb runs alot slower

8gb for the primay stuff and 2 for other stuff but it runs drg well enough

So rogue core will probably work

[delicate flax]

these consoles need to step up their goddamn ram lol

[olive narwhal]

For seires s

[delicate flax]

it's so sad

[median sleet]

They struggled getting the DRG ui work for smaller screens though #drg-chat message So I don't think we'll get a DRG port.

[olive narwhal]

Gotta remember that drg "ran" on the original ps4 and xbox one they cutting them out of the equation for rogue core

[median sleet]

Rogue core port would be cool but the devs don't know either right now

[olive narwhal]

Thats the other concern

It would be

Im curious to see how it will run on the steamdeck

Rogue core

[median sleet]

I am curious to see how it'll run on my pc cus my pc is dying

[olive narwhal]

Rogue cores specs will be a bit higher so i guess we will see

[delicate flax]

I think rogue core could run well since the devs are starting mostly fresh and can optimize the current engine more

as it's not fully connected to the spagetti code of drg anymore

[olive narwhal]

They have been investing in particle stability

[median sleet]

Not if I install mods that make the game look like I am playing minecraft

[olive narwhal]

Those will probably take some time
