rogue-core-chat

[pure vessel]

After the alpha I guess

[fluid jacinth]

Dwarfs reproduce by cutting a large enough chunk of Beard and placing it next to the hardest brand of liqour they can find

[cursive ridge]

kinda like each class got a default look in the OG DRG

[fluid jacinth]

An adult dwarf will manifest to drink the beer once no one is looking

[weary fjord]

SLOW and TOUGH, just like me mum.

[fickle abyss]

hope they never make a character as greasy looking as driller

[sterile plume]

Serious answer: the dwarfs are all clones. Karl's not out there. He's in each of us. We are all Karl.

[snow plume]

i'll trade my feet for a invite

[fickle abyss]

this but boulder

[bold hawk]

ask yourself... why do no dwarf like leaf lover... it is becuse that is the beer they use for reproducing

[clever orbit]

no the dwarves all look different but humans are racist and cant tell them apart

[finite laurel]

Karl was the template, the Jango Fett

[fickle abyss]

i like this

[fluid jacinth]

leaf lovers is babys first beer

[chrome sundial]

Not my baby

[bold hawk]

that too

[chrome sundial]

My baby is getting randoweiser

[weary fjord]

Its imitation beer, bitter with no redeeming qualities

[cursive ridge]

What Tuddi is this...?

[fickle abyss]

it cant be alcohol if it makes you less drunk

[quartz gust]

Man I am so excited for this game

[bold hawk]

yer child has a liver instead of ze head... oh wait zit is just so ugly

[weary fjord]

Its like smelling salts if it was a beer

[steel swan]

instead of alcohol its lohocla

[quartz gust]

These gameplay snippets look amazing. I’m so glad gsg got the time they needed to cook this up

I will wait as long as it takes for this to meet the devs’ vision

[fickle abyss]

the trailer actually looked like a horrorgame, im not typically scared of games, but im gonna be distraught if i get the email

[weary fjord]

Dawg, It’s still cooking, they just opened up the oven a little to tempt

[bold hawk]

think if you play in VR then

[quartz gust]

Oh I’m very aware, but I can’t help being excited and proud regardless

[pure vessel]

WE haven't even shown everything yet. THe trailer was made from footage from febuary. We have really made a lot of progress since.

can't wait to show it off 🙂

[median sleet]

does access to the playtest come with a free pc?

[fickle abyss]

wooooooooooowww

[bold hawk]

sure

[fickle abyss]

crazy

[weary fjord]

They opened up the oven, took a picture of it and showed us the picture.

[fickle abyss]

cant imagine what it looks like now

[quartz gust]

I’m gonna come over there and take all your floppy disks so I can test it out now

[fickle abyss]

(imagine if its all beeen scraped, and we get a unity asset flip)

[quartz gust]

I will do it

[fluid jacinth]

The showed us a pic of what was in the oven a month ago

[steel swan]

Right now we can smell the food, and soon some people will get a taste of it before the full dish is served

[ocean atlas]

Pog, new trailer hours

[hollow bear]

Wait til they see the extreme dedication to detail in the Ramrod toilets

[clever orbit]

closed alpha 🙏🙏🙏

[idle bison]

its finally coming?

[vagrant current]

The shift key is a bit too sensitive it seems

[neat acorn]

[random belfry]

in some settings and franchises. I suspect manlet and ladilet dwarfs in DRG are born from rock, alchohol or pure tenacity willed into existance!

[chrome sundial]

Wait

No loot bugs in rouge core

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[fluid jacinth]

Ive been obsessing over that brownish energy revolver in the trailer

[fluid jacinth]

maybe we get something else instead

[deep dock]

Sorry if this is an annoying question/nobody knows, but:
Will the closed alpha participant selection process be "first-come first-serve" and people be selected in the order of who requested access first each time they bring more people in, or will they just take an amount of random users out of the pool of waitlisted users each time?

[random belfry]

Just to have it solidified and crystal quartz clear. There are theoretically easier and more freedom and potentiale to add more classes down the line? Bonus Q: How do you handle " class " color theming? Seems Guardian for now is magenta and I think Spotter was orange? Hoping for purple too! Anyway... Might be way too early to say I gues, just curious... and hyped!

[fickle abyss]

i think its completely random

[tall plume]

they actually said someone make a lootbug expenite so they're in the game now

[sterile plume]

Please make sure there's a voice line joke from the dorfs about rogue / rouge.

[fickle abyss]

have you all thought about soloplay? will there be less options to choose then?

[fluid jacinth]

Wonder how it works since its supposed to be way more co op focused. So are solo runs just way harder to do

Like how I imagine it will work is one guy might have that energy pulse gun and spreads a debuff and another player gets a way to detonate said debuff

and then you and that player build off of each others as the run goes on

[finite laurel]

I'm sure the game will adjust according to the amount of players in the match, just like DRG

[fickle abyss]

i imagine that all the dwarf abilities can be self activated

[fluid jacinth]

maybe one guy goes bulky beefy build and draws aggro and one focuses on single target dps. the two others focus on debuffs and group burst.

[barren belfry]

Is the closed alpha subscription for rogue core still open, It still Need to be opened? How can i sign up for the closed alpha? Thanks

[fickle abyss]

ahhh that way

[fickle abyss]

go to the steam page

it just oppend today i think

[barren belfry]

Thanks a lot

[fluid jacinth]

Sounds really cool yes but wondering how that fantasy could work in solo if it even can. I dont mind solo being a whole different beast to tackle just wondering

[fickle abyss]

i think a solo jack of all trade is possible, maybe you get higher rarity upgrades?

[fluid jacinth]

"Bosco" upgrades could be a thing to help but not sure if this game will have bosco like vanilla drg

[random belfry]

I love solo run if not playing with my siblings. Soloing can make a 70% fun time coop and 30% thrill and horror goimg vice verca. Like you know REPO..

[barren belfry]

I subscribed, thanks a lot for your help

[fickle abyss]

youre welcome!!!

[fluid jacinth]

Yeah. my thoughts exactly. Will solo just be WAY harder

[random belfry]

Haha! BRING it!

[fluid jacinth]

from what ive heard from some early testers (some youtubers) is that its doable solo but isnt intended

[native monolith]

i am quite sad we never see the shock blaster fire

unless its in the background

[fluid jacinth]

I need to know if the charge energy revolver thingy is a starter pistol or not

it looks really sick. Im a massive sucker for meaty single shot hand helds

[native monolith]

the charge blaster?

there is no starting weapons in rogue core; you just get them from weapon pickup spots

[fluid jacinth]

Ah I thought you got to choose a pistol at start

[quasi shell]

a more feminine dwarf?

[native monolith]

i believe that was removed

[spare pagoda]

Anyone know if there is a way to get into the playtest after accepting on steam

[native monolith]

wait

[spare pagoda]

excited to try it out

[native monolith]

one thing we do know about the shock blaster now is the ammo capacity which tells us a little of its firing method

100 per mag, ~1612 in reserve

so maybe its like a lightning stream?

[quasi shell]

in the shot with the four dwarves near the end, does one of them look more feminine to you?

[fickle abyss]

all of them (insert gigachad gif)

[native monolith]

reclaimers are reserved for female dwarves because theyre the toughest

[fickle abyss]

short queens

[native monolith]

ok so the charge blaster has three tiers of charging, and we only seem to see a no charge shot and a full charge shot

no charge just seems like the laser gun we see around a lot, 3 charge seems to be a high damage piercing ray

[clever orbit]

imposseeebleugh

[native monolith]

youve waited like uh 4ish hours

[quasi shell]

idk the third one just looks prettier. less face rubble on them.

[native monolith]

just repeat that about a hundred times and itll probably be there

[clever orbit]

how many hours will that be

[quasi shell]

a couple

[fickle abyss]

at least 4 more

[clever orbit]

far to manys

[fickle abyss]

imagine if its all a 9 days late aprils fool

[loud lance]

How to register for the alfa test?

[fickle abyss]

steam page for RC

[clever orbit]

then you contemplate how your life is like sisyphus'

[quasi shell]

the first step is spelling alpha correctly

[fickle abyss]

big shiny button and youll get an email in some weeks if you got in

there will be multiple waves of testers so dont be sad that you didnt get in first try

(cut to me making 500 alt accounts)

[ashen bison]

Not there sadly

[soft bane]

just checking. is the selection procces for the playtest completely random?

[hard frigate]

Maybe a dumb question, but are there going to be glyphids in rogue core? Or all core spawn type enemies?

[cerulean tundra]

All corespawn.

[young vessel]

nuh uh

they got lil flying dudes too

[quasi shell]

I remember seeing people complain that this is an asset flip, and that they're reusing models and animations, as if that's a bad thing.

[hollow palm]

I mean

The beards seem reused?

And some of the guns

[cerulean tundra]

Imagine making all of your assets.

[quasi shell]

I mean it's obviously not that, but I don't get why it would be bad if it was that.

[cerulean tundra]

Star Citizen.

[hollow palm]

Otherwise who cares

[native monolith]

with this trailer we now know of 9 unique rogue core weapons

[hollow palm]

It would suck if endgame rogue core was just modded driller/gunner gameplay

[native monolith]

gonna do one last look through but i believe that was all of them

[hollow palm]

But I have high hopes and expectations for the enemies and roguelike elements

[short ledge]

them and 99% of other games

[hollow palm]

Are you counting the class gadgets

[quasi shell]

like why should we force devs to remake literally all of their assets and animations for every single game.

[short ledge]

except the difference being we literally have an entirely new enemy faction and new weapons and classes so idk why people would say that

[cerulean tundra]

Star Citizen.

[hollow palm]

Asset reuse can definitely be an issue

I’m also sure people are more worried about content reuse than asset reuse

Either way that was potentially true for like

The very early footage

[short ledge]

as long as it feels new then I don't care, and it will because it's a different style of game

[hollow palm]

As of now the game looks extremely cool

[native monolith]

no those are classes

also speaking of which

[cerulean tundra]

I don't even care if it feels new. It's more DRG.

[native monolith]

i think guardian has 3 abilties now??

[quasi shell]

oh god that's 1 too many

[errant kiln]

ME WANT GAME

[native monolith]

which could imply that maybe you swap them out?

[hollow palm]

4

[native monolith]

whats the fourth one you saw?

[hollow palm]

Chunk

[native monolith]

im seeing the pushback, the blast, and the shield

[late horizon]

how do you think when will they start letting us in

[hollow palm]

And the heft

[hollow palm]

Random blocks

[errant kiln]

that sheild thing i think is a gun

[cerulean tundra]

When they're ready.

[native monolith]

not talking about that

[hollow palm]

Potentially filtering based on playtime - but only to know how much DRG is affecting perception

[errant kiln]

nvm then

[native monolith]

thats the field blaster

ill send what im seeing in a sec lemme just get it all in one place

[hollow palm]

ie having both novice and seasoned players, not just one or the other

[late horizon]

yeah I heard but maybe predictions for the first block

[old swift]

i believe its purely random

survivor was

[hollow palm]

Random…

[manic sleet]

waiting for a video with actual gameplay 😬

or a chance to play myself

[native monolith]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vJ4OwO-wEVNvLNXCuXjV1W9ZeUv5ZaDDyZqeTii_s6E/edit?tab=t.1m8wfeyuvguv

ok so im wondering if its just the shield

[errant kiln]

i wanna see the new wepons

[native monolith]

but the april fools trailer made it seem more like gunners shield

[waxen nova]

anyone gotten access yet?

[native monolith]

and the gameplay seems like a fear arua?

[native monolith]

soon™️

[young vessel]

only tommy

they've been hogging the only copy of rogue core and da devs are trying various methods to convince them to give it up so they can begin early access testing

[cerulean tundra]

I see someone else in the server who has access.

[late horizon]

is there any info about how the lobby in rc will look? I would love to have another one space rig, especially the one for THE RECLAIMERS

[young vessel]

co-op

[fickle abyss]

keep in mind that the trailer is from clips a few months old (i belive a dev earlier said february but i could be wrong) models could be freshed up by now (not that theres anything wrong with anything in the trailers)

[native monolith]

Rogue core has a new hub called the Ramrod, which is a more "cozy" spaceship opposed to a orbital structure

[hollow palm]

I mean generally, not with RC

[cerulean tundra]

I just saw a third person who is listed as "1 of 4"

[native monolith]

we have seen a few very early snippets of it but i would imagine it is more updated now

[hollow palm]

I’m expecting new weapons or at least transformative changes to existing ones (the point of a roguelike)

[hidden hornet]

Hope the ramrod is equipped with a bar

Can't keep dwarves from their nutritional needs

[young vessel]

discord bugging out from the recent server issues a few minutes ago

[late horizon]

badass

[hollow palm]

But having a flamethrower model be in both games doesn’t cripple interest

[worn wave]

one of the gadgets threw bombs, we know what class that is?

[hollow palm]

We had it shown to us a while back

It has BATHROOM STALLS

RC is gonna be peak

[late horizon]

noway

[native monolith]

i believe it does

we saw what looks to be a llyod

who is also inside a gym

[native monolith]

send a timestamp of it

[fossil heath]

Is rogue core going to be a new game or free DLC for DRG?

[next crater]

new game

[hushed stag]

Does everyone have a good chance on getting in the closed alpha for rogue core or do some people have a higher chance

[native monolith]

ok i see what you mean now

i did see those and it does make me wonder

[hushed stag]

It's gonna be a new game

[native monolith]

is that an animation choice literally guardian like... magnetically throwing little balls

[chrome sundial]

pokeball confirmed?

[native monolith]

that seems like the blast

[worn wave]

idk the glove looks different

[native monolith]

that is def guardian

[worn wave]

there's not the big thingamabob on it

nvm then

[native monolith]

well, the first screenshot is from the april fools trailer

[fossil heath]

Interesting, pardon my ignorance it looks almost identical to DRG aside from some new leveling mechanic and drone, what exactly is so new about it? Like genuinely trying to understand what makes it different from DRG to justify it being a seperate game

[native monolith]

so i think everything looked a little different

[next crater]

We'll start with moderate amount to be able to digest feedback, but we'll most likely reopen and let more people in over time.

[young vessel]

roguecore is a roguelike

[hushed stag]

Are submissions randomized or are the first few that signed up going in?

[chrome sundial]

Its a roguelike, completely new enemies, different gameplay, different class system

[hushed stag]

Or how you call it

[young vessel]

theres all sorts of info in the pins and uh the trailer that just came out and other stuff maybe

[chrome sundial]

New weapons

[cerulean tundra]

First come, first serve baby.

[hushed stag]

So the moment they posted the link in the trailer chat, I signed up. Does this mean I have a higher chance to get into the closed alpha?

[young vessel]

early bird gets the asbestos apple

[chrome sundial]

Is that confirmed? I assumed it would be random or by playtime on drg

[native monolith]

not really if its fully random

which it is

[late horizon]

I hope so too

[hushed stag]

Thank goodness

[glad vessel]

praying i get in rn

[cerulean tundra]

I was four hours late so probably not.

[native monolith]

[native monolith]

call me crazy but is this a new GK2 framework

[chrome sundial]

Does gk2 have the rail?

[glad vessel]

they can't keep me out of rouge core forever

[late horizon]

I don't think they want to repeat the deadlock's faith

[cerulean tundra]

Yeah, so the end of 2025.

[native monolith]

actually is that the gk2?

it looks really similar

[worn wave]

I'm actually more curious about what I'm allowed to show off, online or to friends, and IF I'm allowed to show anything off

[native monolith]

just a unique model

[hushed stag]

Is making videos during closed alpha allowed

[native monolith]

we dont know yet

[chrome sundial]

https://deeprockgalactic.fandom.com/wiki/Deepcore_GK2

[cerulean tundra]

Likely not. It's a closed alpha for a reason.

[chrome sundial]

pretty sure completely new gun

[young vessel]

#rogue-core-chat message

[old swift]

just megacorp

[native monolith]

its either a new gun or my "improving on old" conspiracy theory goes deeper

[worn wave]

thanks

[native monolith]

if that is the gk2 i think i have enough evidence to say that drg stuff has been made better in rogue core

zipline had sparks, fresher models

[worn wave]

gk3

[native monolith]

which makes me wonder: will it be back ported?

or will it be part of the rogue core style

[glad vessel]

i imagine they will let you make videos of the closed alpha as they do plan to go early access

[native monolith]

because the ziplines having sparks is really cool

oh ive been so busy looking at weapons i forgot to write down the entirely new enemy family design we were shown

[chrome sundial]

One of the mods is playing rc rn\

[native monolith]

quick find his address and steal the computer

[chrome sundial]

On it boss

[old swift]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/891535386977919020/1359995559460737054/image.png?ex=67f98210&is=67f83090&hm=f468735ecb33a0b8c33c7c200106d0c9fb423f1f70d6ffb90d7f7f2321cc3e75&

[late horizon]

yeah I already saw 3

[errant kiln]

Rogue and Core

[late horizon]

not mods but still

[chrome sundial]

I am personally being left out from their game

They hate me

[worn wave]

I couldn't help but notice that the ammo counters on guns that exist in drg look really different

[native monolith]

the shatterclaws freak me out like 10 times more than the corespawn

[chrome sundial]

Dude the bone arms are so freaky

[native monolith]

fleshy bone finger spiders is def a yikers to stumble upon in the dark

[glad vessel]

remember if you don't get on the first wave ghost ship games personally hates you and the hit squad are on their way to delete your drg save

[native monolith]

ah kk

and the rustic paintjob

so yeah just gk2

[native monolith]

D:

[chrome sundial]

Dude the upgrade that stacks more damage the more enemies you kill + the upgrade that explodes enemies killed if theyre on fire, lighting enemies on fire in a 5m radius

I want to try that build so bad

[late horizon]

I want to believe that gsg will let us in as interested in game active discord users 😭

[next crater]

That feature is currently not available on steam for everyone to use, unfortunately.

[native monolith]

i think its funny that the shocker blaster has not been fired once in any rogue core gameplay but is the first idle animation we have seen

[chrome sundial]

Is that the finger gooper animation?

[native monolith]

ah, unfortunate

[native monolith]

ye

[next crater]

We can only open up by region, so it will most likely be random

[hushed stag]

What do you mean by region?

[glad vessel]

gambling yippeee

[fluid jacinth]

I love gambling

[chrome sundial]

Were you guys thinking of giving people a key for their friend or just stick with completely random

[worn wave]

it's the fonttttttttttt

[ember arrow]

Do we know when invites are goign out for the closed alpha?

[next crater]

Not sure how steam defines it, but it’s probably based on time zones or geographically.

[fluid jacinth]

Since its co op it would kinda make sense to give friend keys, but at the same time it would probably be good to have less familiar people play with each others

[hushed stag]

Ah, alright, thanks for letting me know!

[fluid jacinth]

To get a better read on how the game flows with randoms working together

[next crater]

Currently not an option we have. We can get keys to select people for testing purposes, but on this scale it’s not possible.

[worn wave]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1184166011612696689/1359997581203210433/image.png?ex=67f983f2&is=67f83272&hm=9dc2c59f4ad9d99d7f00c35690004ea342ed66001b52c10911165b8dba998263&

[late horizon]

same. gifted 1 copy and brought 4 more people to the game

[hidden hornet]

Wonder when the estimate the devs will start selecting players for closed alpha

[worn wave]

first batch within a month afaik

[ember arrow]

I don't care if i get alpha or not, DRG is a top tier dev team. Will be great soon or whenever it launches.

[glad vessel]

im gonna get in on the first wave guys trust me

[hidden hornet]

I wont

[glad vessel]

we both will

[late horizon]

you're in my team then

[glad vessel]

i believe in the gamble

[late horizon]

you two

[ember arrow]

Wonder if I will get all my dwarfs into the red prestige before it gets 1.0 though haha, I got gold 2 on all of them

[glad vessel]

if any of you get in

[next crater]

We can’t even select people specifically through Steam, we can more or less say “let some people in now from this region”

[chrome sundial]

I might log into my steam account I havnt used in 10 years to get a better chance

[glad vessel]

give me your steam account

if you get in

hand it over

[finite laurel]

Huh, I had no idea that’s how the system worked

[late horizon]

oh thanks for the idea

[native monolith]

its a win win either way

A: i play rogue core earlier

B: I play rogue core in a finished, polished, intended state

actually if i get in i might have to stop adding to the doc, that would be sad

[worn wave]

does steam even have like an integrated system for qna's?

[finite laurel]

On a different note, do you guys think anyone’s gonna datamine the alpha

[next crater]

Qnas?

[native monolith]

erugh thats even more unnerving, the shatterclaw dont have faces

[jovial wadi]

Just drop the source code

[chrome sundial]

Face could be on their butt

[worn wave]

The point of alphas is to basically get feedback stuff, did I not get that right?

[native monolith]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1166496590672953428/1359998758007607366/image.png?ex=67f9850b&is=67f8338b&hm=1d2a89ce42ed8b95e8b9c02946a5aa6214b28535fa328e6ea21c0b2f4a4c9603&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=684&height=525
my dog dont bite (it doesnt have a mouth)

[next crater]

Oh, so like for feedback? No, you have to arrange that yourself.

[glad vessel]

i'll 100% not be waiting till early access to get in

[chrome sundial]

WHAT is that screenshot hahaha why is bro doing a funky little dance

[ember arrow]

I think closed alpha can provide feedback but its gotta be given to the right people. Closed alpha was full of the wrong people for Stormgate.

[worn wave]

they kinda look with naedocyte's with legs

[native monolith]

yeah

[finite laurel]

I kinda wanna find out what exactly the Gorgon class did and why it was cut (I know it was apparently too similar to spotter, but I wonder exactly how)

[worn wave]

I was thinking the same, but if it's random, it's random. Does seem terribly disadvantageous because you really can't predict what portion will give any meaningful feedback

[native monolith]

getting jiggy with it (this was taken 3 frames before he gets obliterated by a power attack)

[glad vessel]

can't wait to be checking my emails like a game of fnaf to see if i get an invite

[native monolith]

iirc they stunned enemies and made them invincible for a brief period of time

basically turning them to stone

which, spotter kinda does with the debuff darts, slowing down enemies

[worn wave]

I really like how the spotter looks, such a little gremlin

[next crater]

We do have a closed testers group too, and they just got access today

[errant kiln]

cominisher gorgon is dat u

[glad vessel]

do we have a date for when people will get selected

[sleek swallow]

so how much can I bribe you to get into the closed testers group

[chrome sundial]

I should have been a youtuber so I could be one of the chosen ones 😔

[worn wave]

month-ish (first wave)

[native monolith]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1166496590672953428/1360000045679771708/image.png?ex=67f9863e&is=67f834be&hm=9e9132d917419ccc6702522035ac32ef8dc2168eede16bb04136973ce9c0e2a3&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=1622&height=1584

wait whose this little guy

second shatterclaw?

[chrome sundial]

Woahh your good at spotting thingsa

[native monolith]

that looks nothing like the first one

[next crater]

I've recused myself of all those decisions. If I have no power, people won't bug me about it.

[chrome sundial]

he has enough mouth for him and the bone one together

[glad vessel]

who can we bribe then??

[sleek swallow]

why did you have to be smart about it jacob, how else do I get access now

[next crater]

I think we only have one Youtuber in here, and he's special. Maybe two.

[native monolith]

everytime we get roguecore info i sit down with the discord, doc, and source open and just take it scene by scene

[worn wave]

lazymaybe in there?

[native monolith]

and occasionally i find cool stuff

[next crater]

bribe bjorn be being good at leaving feedback

and give him money

[sleek swallow]

hmmm

[errant kiln]

yo update that name homie

[paper kayak]

Will one dollar suffice for rogue core

[next crater]

No, but he's definitely on the list of people we could invite seperately.

[chrome sundial]

Ill pay two dollar

[median sleet]

I am very good at giving feedback!
Example: I like Deep Rock Galactic.

[next crater]

what if there is another trailer coming?!?

[glad vessel]

Embed fail

[ember arrow]

It would be nice if steam could let you query people that have like rougelike games, lots of hours DRG , etc. People demanding access usually end up being bad feedback givers.

[chrome sundial]

weird way of spelling the second trailer is on its way

[median sleet]

Who's they?

[chrome sundial]

Im so excited for 2nd trailer

[paper kayak]

Isn't this your job.

[glad vessel]

Wait, what will dwarfs yell, if they don't have a beer?

[chrome sundial]

3rd trailer confirmed!!

[low gyro]

[next crater]

[paper kayak]

Darling, go to bed.

Let them stew in peace

[chrome sundial]

At this rate everyone on the team will be busy making 40 trailers instead of the game lol

[glad vessel]

[worn wave]

don't listen to them

pull an all-nighter

[paper kayak]

Shhhhhhh

[serene lily]

I died on my first drill mission because I did not understand how to properly use the jetboots.

[worn wave]

wake up at 12am

[low gyro]

Sleep is for the weak...

[median sleet]

Yeah, me too, I think I helped a lot here today

[fluid jacinth]

Sleep is very important for creativity

[worn wave]

Sleep is for the weak week

[low gyro]

Oh

[glad vessel]

shut

[random laurel]

I'm so ready for this game

[low gyro]

Alright

[native monolith]

ramrod looks a lot cooler now

[fluid jacinth]

I am not ready for this game

Im scared

[native monolith]

lot more mechanized

[low gyro]

[median sleet]

Damn Jacob read that message and instantly closed Discord and went to bed

[iron elm]

FEMALE DWARF AT THE END OF THE TRAILER?!

[median sleet]

Crazy discipline

[paper kayak]

Do not underestimate the power of a worried woman.

[glad vessel]

he got sent to sleep

[low gyro]

No, no, no calm down

[glad vessel]

is it a female dwarf?

[low gyro]

Theres no females

[worn wave]

I think the falconeer is

[low gyro]

Only Bosco

[glad vessel]

i think it is

[iron elm]

It looks like a female dwarf!

[glad vessel]

[paper kayak]

Lloyd best girl

[chrome sundial]

[glad vessel]

lloyd is the best

[low gyro]

Ня?

[dark verge]

Would Doretta

[fluid jacinth]

Would

[low gyro]

Oh yes best woman

[chrome sundial]

I ship bosco and lloyd tbh

[iron elm]

W ship

[worn wave]

but I did also see an alt look for the falconeer (beard) so it's probably togglable? Or they already have some cosmetics?

[glad vessel]

no

[dark verge]

Gonna make her moan like on those Escort missions

[iron elm]

That'd be pretty cool tbh

[low gyro]

[dark verge]

||I am so dead inside||

[median sleet]

We need Jacob back

[chrome sundial]

Your going to be personally denied access to rc for that one lmao

[low gyro]

Damn

[glad vessel]

free will is a mistake that should be corrected

[low gyro]

how to get this

[median sleet]

Go to the miners union terminal in DRG

[dark verge]

NOOO!!!!

steam screenshots bring yet more info. This new laser carbine seems to fire two bullets

I'm a mushroom eater

[chrome sundial]

Two cool bullets

[low gyro]

What the?!!

Guys look!

[wild nest]

so guys how do ya think will they let us playtest? Cuase me and 3 of my friends have already sent

[native monolith]

alright, i think i got most of the broadstrokes, im gonna take a break

[fickle abyss]

randommmm

[low gyro]

Thank you!

[dark verge]

I do hope communication will be okay. I don't have a microphone and I hope once I play it I will be able to make myself clear about getting upgrades. I am not very fast reader and I hope that wont cause me to always be last to get some upgrades

[low gyro]

Damn

[chrome sundial]

First person to choose rotates

[native monolith]

theres definitely some more info hiding in corners i would say

[low gyro]

I will pick random things

And steal everything

[dark verge]

Ahh I see.

[low gyro]

')

[old swift]

this to me actually looks a lot like a gk2

[vagrant scaffold]

There's gonna be a tool to place a marker on those upgrades that you would wish to pick when your turn comes.

They showed it in the pre alpha footage trailer.

[random laurel]

Will the alpha be within the next 2 weeks?

[old swift]

the ammo counts are similar as well

[low gyro]

I want more lore.

[worn wave]

I don't see it

[old swift]

could ofc be placeholder stats

[wild nest]

gk3 :3

[lapis tinsel]

by any chance, do you watch pyrocynical

[dark verge]

So you are a murderhobo. I am more of a explorer. I still try to make one story for DRG about one mission between Dirt Digger and Mighty Miner and their personal world views.

[chrome sundial]

letting people in within the month most likely

[dark verge]

Oh goddammit.

[lapis tinsel]

lmao

[low gyro]

Idk man, after playing only 200+ hours, I understood that mushrooms can be pinged

[tribal jay]

is the only way to get acces through steam?

[median sleet]

yeah

[dark verge]

Ye

[tribal jay]

how long does it ussualy take?

[low gyro]

Forever

Until the game releases

[worn wave]

first wave of testers in a month-ish

[median sleet]

There is no date yet I think

[low gyro]

Or you will be picked?

[burnt temple]

Do we have to sign an NDA or anything to play the closed Beta?

[median sleet]

but around a month

[median sleet]

no

[tribal jay]

ooh its not going yet? haha my bad i thought playtest was already live

[low gyro]

I give my firstborn

[random laurel]

I hope not within next 2 weeks I have stuff to do

[median sleet]

You can sign up, but it's not live yet

[low gyro]

For early Drg access

[dark verge]

I will be. I know it. I will make it happen through sheer will. Will get a new PC soon so it will be just in time to get deeper into Hoxxes. Gotta make those polygons look beautiful.

[burnt temple]

I only ask because I have a hard time keeping secrets.

[worn wave]

.

[chrome sundial]

I already claimed your copy sorry bud

Ill send you screenshots I promise

[low gyro]

Send me

[dark verge]

Don't worry. The drone takes a while, but it will get to you in around 2 hours.

[median sleet]

Left the ping on, your soul will be taken

[low gyro]

Sweet pics of juicy rouge core

[worn wave]

yea I realised my mistake I regret it thoroughly

[low gyro]

Damn this game looks fire in trailer

[median sleet]

I'll miss you

wait how do you know I left the ping on?

[chrome sundial]

Your cooked 😔

[low gyro]

It's over

[worn wave]

o7 don't forget me

[low gyro]

Thank you miner, for the rock and stone 🪨

[chrome sundial]

It shows a @ where the name you replied to is

[median sleet]

I am Mike

It still shows the @ symbol

[dark verge]

I will main the Sword Guy. I am a Driller Main so it's my only choice

[low gyro]

Minecraft joke....

[chrome sundial]

What are the odds we get duel flame throwers

[median sleet]

Just saw that he has the 'special Mike role' lol

[worn wave]

play all classes to experience 75% more game per game

[median sleet]

@silent @tall plume if my name is Mike, can I also get the special Mike role?

[low gyro]

Alright goodnight people! It's 00:35

[native monolith]

Technically… we don’t know if you’re disallowed from doubling up on weapons soooo

[dark verge]

I do sometimes, but Driller is what I love.

[native monolith]

It could be possible

[chrome sundial]

Duel flamethrower with extra steps lol

[worn wave]

could be a weapon modifier tbh

[native monolith]

Though there’s probably separation from primaries and secondaries

[median sleet]

Well, I tried to make the ping silent, but I failed

[worn wave]

it's over

you're coming with me

[median sleet]

Yep

[native monolith]

Death in 19 seconds

[chilly folio]

send them to the void

[dark verge]

There is a chance we could become the Driller that DRG Driller always dreamt of being. Flamethrower and Breach Cutter.

[chrome sundial]

Theyre being sent to become a core spawn

We will put them out of their misery in 3-4 weeks

[worn wave]

(it's over)

[chilly folio]

a fate worse than a leaf lover

[dark verge]

I never ordered that in my life

[native monolith]

Being injected with lean, truly horrible

[dark verge]

BTW RIP for anyone who is unlucky enough to be put last and has to choose a Drax as their "weapon of choice"

[chrome sundial]

Id cry

[dark verge]

Preemptive memorial for all of those sad Dwarfs.

[chrome sundial]

Im sure theres some ammo regen cheese you can do with drax

[dark verge]

But even then... it's Drax.

[chrome sundial]

😔

[dark verge]

The only weapon more laughable is Halo GK2.

Can't wait for Season 6 to rework it into the most busted OC in DRG

[burnt temple]

Sorry to ask this but... What is the Drax?

[dark verge]

The pink bubble weapon scout uses that is pretty garbo.

[young vessel]

drak plasma carbine

[dark verge]

Ah yeah it's Drak. No idea why I thought of Drax.

[burnt temple]

that super inacurate plasma gun?

[dark verge]

Yeah the one who has like... no good OCs

[young vessel]

people usually comment on its lack of base damage

[young vessel]

dont let anyone in #drg-chat see that you said this

[dark verge]

There are people who enjoy Drak just like there are people who enjoy getting kicked in the nuts. I am not one to judge... just be confused.

[burnt temple]

Only time I have ever seen a good OC for that gun was the one that boosts status effects. Making it easier for say... Driller to freeze dreadnaughts.

[cold vessel]

How do we sign up for the closed alpha?

[young vessel]

that does bring up the question of how the "lower quality" weapons of DRG will be in rogue core cuz you cant just start the mission with an overclock that fixes it

[dark verge]

It's the new one. I get that they want to make Scout into the Bard of DRG, but... results are mixed at best. Maybe Secondary OCs in Season 6 will help him.

[chrome sundial]

steam

[cold vessel]

? Rouge core does not show in the store when I search it

[chrome sundial]

Oh no lmao

[dark verge]

Probably some rare drop you can get for yourself. Maybe.

[chrome sundial]

Rouge core is a joke

Its rogue core

[young vessel]

people use drak as a vessel for the Thermal Exhaust Feedback overclock that makes it do like 30~ish damage per shot, but i doubt you're getting that power early game in rogue core

[cold vessel]

[dark verge]

Isn't that one also VERY hard to maintain? I remember it being a pain.

[young vessel]

oh yes, PC players get it easy with that verified heat meter mod

[zealous birch]

where can I find the alpha sign up for rouge core?

[chrome sundial]

Steam

[dark verge]

Steam

[chrome sundial]

And its rogue core 😔

[iron elm]

I need a rare 1/1000 chance voiceline where the reclaimers say "For Place & Holder"

[dark verge]

Pray to Gabe to get in

[rancid minnow]

have they started sending invites out?

[zealous birch]

Thank you!

[chrome sundial]

We need to stop joking about it being rouge core lmao

[dark verge]

Nah

[dark verge]

I want to explore Rouge's core

[iron elm]

They said a couple weeks

[rancid minnow]

crying

[iron elm]

At least in one of the blogs they mentioned that it would be a couple weeks after the sign ups begin

[dark verge]

Hope I can get lucky

And get in

[oblique pond]

we all hope

[dark verge]

My luck just tends to be very neurodivergent

[oblique pond]

same

[dark verge]

so close to getting new PC too.

7 years I had my old one. Could be jumping from 1060 straight to 9070 XT. Like a Scout with a Special Powder

[iron elm]

Praying to Karl

[chrome sundial]

Use all that money to bribe a dev to give you rc

Trust

[hollow comet]

for sure, 1060 will probably be plenty enough to play rogue core anyway

[dark verge]

I know. Just for other games. I want to finally play something recent without graphic coping.

No more cope for several years

[hollow comet]

oth...other games?

[chrome sundial]

Rc is the most recent you can get

[dark verge]

There are in fact games. On PC of course, but they are there.

[solar rune]

hello everyone, do you have any information about when exactly I will be distributing alpha access to rouge core?
I want to take the day off so that I can try it as early as possible.

[hybrid mist]

No day yet

[dark verge]

No idea. It will be a few weeks

[hidden hornet]

If the colour of the core is red would it be correct to call it a rouge core?

[chrome sundial]

It is random and in two weeks+

[hollow comet]

it's random and not guaranteed, don't take any day off lol

[hybrid mist]

We just know it's gonna be Q2 2025

Só it's pretty close

[chrome sundial]

Within the month most likly

[dark verge]

Are we going inside Rouge The Bat then?

[hidden hornet]

That sounds... weird

[dark verge]

Keep calling it Rouge Core I will bring up Rouge The Bat.

There. Incentive to correct yourself.

[chrome sundial]

Freaky ahh

[hidden hornet]

Fine

Roge coure

Now this is a big brain moment

[chrome sundial]

rouge courier

[dark verge]

Roge course... Roger Course? One Piece?

[dark verge]

Now I imagine Rouge The Bat in Fallout New Vegas

Is that Rouge Core?

She is my wife...

Don't worry, every hotel has THAT chair.

I better start messaging Molly.

[void rapids]

So you're saying the 1000+ hours I have in isn't gonna buy me some extra Roguecore lotto tickets?

[dark verge]

This is DRG universe? Why would it?

[void rapids]

Because hope, love, and friendship?

[dark verge]

What part of "Wage slaving away in a company that doesn't care about you" you don't understand?

[dark verge]

Leaf lover. Have a C4.

CU

[hollow comet]

not that we know of, but honestly I'd like for it to be the case.

[vagrant scaffold]

(No offense taken btw, no worries. )

[dark verge]

Maybe if you got yourself all the OCs?

That's gotta be worth something.

[ivory fog]

i would imagine they would like all the types of people testing rogue core

[dark verge]

Thanks. Waiting just a few hours after the trailer and I am already going insane

[void rapids]

Listen you, I'll have you know I've done multiple corporate tours of duty in offices, call centers, and fast food. Slave wages? I got my first 5% 90-day review bump the same say they raised the minimum wage when I was still in school. I went from making minimum wage to getting a raise and still making minimum wage. I tore my knee in the days before mandated healthcare and walked that off for the next 5 years. I know all about corporate slavery...

I was just hoping. 😢 🤣

but yea, that makes sense too

gooaogaoguga...

I'm already trying to replicate the RC outfits in DRG. Will post what I got later.

[dark verge]

Cool. Let's hope Danes are on okay terms with the Poles.

Do not remember about those parts of history, but I hope for no animosity.

[green belfry]

I just like the signature of your games. will the closed alpha include console?

[chrome sundial]

No

[dark verge]

Another common Console L

At this point it's just bullying

[olive hound]

How hard would the base game be?
Because in the Q&A the talked about not making you strong (as an individual) but making your team strong.
Will it be something similar to "GTFO" (the game difficulty is based around a team of 4)? or have the DRG system of leveled difficulty for 1-2 or 3 players?

I (personally) would gladly accept a harder "base" game

[chrome sundial]

I would imagine it would scale based off the amount of players like drg but we'll find out in a couple weeks

[rocky trellis]

probably scales in similar ways, some number/difficulty "level" and then also with player count possibly. but the game likely will make it harder (by design***) for teams that aren't coop'ing well (when it comes to the powerups and all that) and relatively easier for ones that are. i.e., incentivizing more strongly than DRG does some team dynamics. So i.e., probably harder for a greybeard to "carry" 3 other greens.

[olive hound]

What are those two legs things in the Q&A?
They look really creepy 😓

[young vessel]

equivelant

[spring flare]

Requested access, which dwarfs beard do I have to tug for some alpha play time.

[native monolith]

Shatterclaw swarmers, I presume

[olive hound]

Sick

[rocky trellis]

probably a planet evolution against the dwarves since some have a harder time instinctually against enemies with 2 or less legs (versus number of legs more than 2)

[clever orbit]

i think weh ave to wait some weeks

[native monolith]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1166496590672953428/1360000045679771708/image.png?ex=67f9863e&is=67f834be&hm=9e9132d917419ccc6702522035ac32ef8dc2168eede16bb04136973ce9c0e2a3&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=1622&height=1584
there’s also this little feller

Who I presume is another shatterclaw

[rocky trellis]

if you tug the right amount in the right place, possibly 2 days

[clever orbit]

thats a swarmer who has experienced twink death

[olive hound]

ugh

[spring flare]

Well, back to hoxxes while I wait.

[native monolith]

Back in my day, we didn’t even need armor

[clever orbit]

there needs to be a perk that allows you to stomp on them

[native monolith]

All these glyphid guards are cowards

[clever orbit]

"steel tipped boots" it could be called

[rocky trellis]

you think at the end of it all, the final boss will be Karl?. like some kind of plot twist

[olive hound]

Like a cowboy boot?

[clever orbit]

like a shoe with spikes on the bottom of it like soccer shoes

it would be veyr badass to stomp on them

thjeyre tiny enough anyways

[rocky trellis]

he got addicted to expenite and the bugs and stuff, it'll changed him

[clever orbit]

the final boss will be alcoholics anonymous

[leaden venture]

IS THAT LADY DWARFS...

AM I SEEING THIS RIGHT

[severe nymph]

For those qho signed up for the alpha do we have any clue when whoever gets picked will be able to play it?

[olive hound]

I like this "into the core" thing with the machines.

I guess will be at every mission start?

[echo grove]

i'd imagine it's first come first served, or people with higher playtimes on drg for people that'd actually play the game and give feedback

[blissful geyser]

Huh where?

[blissful geyser]

It's probably just random.

[echo grove]

don't believe me tho, that's just my idea

[severe nymph]

Was more asking when the floodgates open

[onyx rivet]

They released a video today about closed alpha and the roadmap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAxU_A1s8YU
Closed alpha stuff starts around 4:30

[severe nymph]

Like today?

[echo grove]

yeah they haven't given a time on that pretty sure

[old swift]

[onyx rivet]

Definitely start at 1:49 to see Mike have a 'woah there buddy' moment.

[severe nymph]

Augh why he looks like dat

[hybrid mist]

Billions must spot

[severe nymph]

I noticed something during the trailer

There's like no new big weapons shown

It's all side arms

Which is fine I'm aure they'll give us some new beefy weapons soon

[void rapids]

"Art of the tease"

[severe nymph]

Probably

[delicate flax]

it reminds me of a particular person but i can't put a finger on it

[severe nymph]

I liked the kne inspection animation for the gun with the hole on the side

And his finger gets all wobbly

[delicate flax]

no way they would cook gunner like that

[severe nymph]

Is the concept of gunner still even there

Or is gunner only summed up to "big gun"

[blissful geyser]

I guessing you get light weapons and sidearms at the start of the mission and work your way up to the heavier ones?

Or perhaps the reclaimers don't use the heavier weapons at all.

[olive hound]

I saw a Minigun on the Q&A

[severe nymph]

I mean they showed gamplay with the crisper and leadstorm

[delicate flax]

The enemies in rogue core are, dangerous and tanky

I don't think they would not want heavy weapons

[olive hound]

If u say "Gunner" as a class there is none

[delicate flax]

But your original idea seems more likely

[native monolith]

CRISPR and the new laser carbine were in the aftertalk

[severe nymph]

I want a bazooka like straight up

[native monolith]

There was probably a few more

[olive hound]

U say "gunner" as having a big gun then yes

[blissful geyser]

Side note, I wonder if the new weapons (and classes?) in Rogue Core will be added to DRG: Survivor. Lol

[olive hound]

There is a "Heavy" class (with the gauntlets) but you could just equip whatever gun you like

[delicate flax]

I cant wait to spam +max hp upgrades in rogue core and tank everything

I do that to every game

[olive dagger]

Yeah it looks like guns and mobility tools aren't necessarily gonna be tied to your class right? We saw ziplines and platform guns iirc

[native monolith]

Yeah

Classes and weapons are separate

[olive dagger]

Makes me wonder how different the classes are going to be

[still kiln]

Rogue core might actually get me to use a weapon other then the flamethrower

[delicate flax]

Dual flamethrowers:

[clever widget]

There seems to be a focus on the reclaimers gauntlets. I somehow suspect those melee weapons are considered our primary weapons of combat. But I can also see them being as a passive third weapon type all dwarves can equip (Primary/Secondary/Gauntlets)

edit: some gauntlets have some capacity of range so maybe its not melee exclusive afterall... hm.

[still kiln]

One day...

Do you click sign up on the steam page and thats it or is there something else you have to do ?

[onyx rivet]

I believe its just clicking sign up on the steam page.

[neon girder]

Oh man I hope I get into the closed Alpha!

[onyx rivet]

This vid is great. I love all the extra looks we're getting at weapons.

[still kiln]

phew thats a really easy sign up

hopefully 888 hours on drg is enough to get in to the alpha

[neon girder]

Do we know the limit or selection process?

[onyx rivet]

XD I imagine it's going to be randomized.

[old swift]

random

[neon girder]

ah cool

[native monolith]

https://tenor.com/view/roulette-game-gif-6892854051717800041

gambling

[still kiln]

I'd like to imagine they will do something more sophisticated then completely random but I have no idea

[neon girder]

hahaha

[onyx rivet]

Well, if they have a sorting system, they could do random pulls based on hours played of DRG (so like, a pool of 10 or fewer hours, 10-50, so on and so forth)

-shrug- but, they'll do whatever they think is best, and sometimes random selection can provide the best environment for discussion on what works, what doesn't, and other such things.

[thin spire]

Will they bring back Satchel Charge?

[onyx rivet]

No idea. Not sure if they've got that far yet.

[still kiln]

Back from where ?

[delicate flax]

Gambling that I get into closed alpha.

[still kiln]

If its random chance based I assume I'll be playing when the games fully released

My gambling luck is non existent

[ivory fog]

I wonder how the progression is gonna be

of course, there's the mission progression

[onyx rivet]

I'm just happy that they confirmed that the reclaimers in Rogue Core honor Rock and Stone. Keeping up the tradition!

[ivory fog]

but things outside of it, like in deep rock we have the seasons, cosmetics, beers and that sort of stuff

the game better have beers

[onyx rivet]

And from the vid I shared earlier, looks kind of like a take on deep dive missions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAxU_A1s8YU

[chrome sundial]

Oh dude I didnt even think of what deep dives could be in rc

They could do some super cool stuff with that

[clever widget]

well technically every rogue core run is basically a deep dive with upgrades

thats kinda the base game as it is

[acoustic shell]

Anyone gotten in yet?

[chrome sundial]

Theyre sending them out in like two weeks

[olive hound]

Nice

[hidden hornet]

The new dwarf faces for the reclaimers kinda give off that they are a very serious team

Unlike the cheeky grin from the original dwarves

[clever widget]

stupidly eager to hear some voicelines of these reclaimers and their investigation towards karl's disappearance

[olive hound]

You know what they did not show on the trailer

The Ramrod

[hybrid mist]

Wait really? Where did they said that?

[thin apex]

Why do people keep thinking that the Corespawn Clamorhead in the thumbnail is Karl 💀

[young vessel]

corespawn are ambush predators that have evolved to look like karl to lure dwarves and its still effective after all these years

[eternal cairn]

Why do people keep thinking

[gloomy sinew]

Damn this trailer lit asf https://youtu.be/-EfBOHWeaSo?si=DpMjaEAFe8O5WJ2q

Screwth thou, embed fail. Furthermore, yesth, this do beth the most recent Rogue Core trailer.

[severe nymph]

This is true

Praying that I get in PLEASE 🙏

[hidden hornet]

The drop pod from the beginning of the trailer shows that the reclaimers getting better equipment

Why can't us non reclaimers have laser drop pod technology

[forest rain]

do we know if rouge core will have bosco? I'm more of a single player kinda fella and admitedly with all the talk of co-op being the main focus wonder if single player will be an option.

[severe nymph]

Cus they go even deeper into hoxxes

[hidden hornet]

No excuses from deep rock

[shut cipher]

I don't think we know any info about anything, just gotta wait and see

[forest rain]

fair enough. ty for the response narwhal. also, I like the pfp art. it's nice ^^

[shut cipher]

tyty

its one of many, one for each season really!

[hard osprey]

Not sure if was already asked or mentioned, but after watching the Q&A, I really hope they decide to make the game solo friendly. Having a new shiney BOSCO or something would be great

[chrome sundial]

.

[chrome sundial]

.

Being able to upgrade bosco as well as yourself in solo would be cool

[hard osprey]

sometimes its just nice to go own pace, explore, take your time. Plus being able to pause and walk away for a few minutes is a huge plus

[wanton skiff]

What if the drone replaces Bosco

[hard osprey]

has to get a new name, but either way works

[forest rain]

lovely ^^

[wanton skiff]

i think they game the upgrade drone a name?

[chrome sundial]

Pretty sure it was elli? Could be wrong

[hard osprey]

thats the new MOLLY

[hybrid mist]

Sick

[frosty cloak]

When are emails for Closed Alpha access set to go out?

[chrome sundial]

2 weeks+

[frosty cloak]

cool

[shut cipher]

wait I just realized 14.3 billion years? This song is new to me, but I am honored to be apart of it!

[trail storm]

im excited to see whats in store

[sage verge]

One thing I find very curious about the trailer is all the man-made stuff in it

Implies that someone's been on Hoxxes IV before. And that they just disappeared.

And that it wasn't just the wildlife.

[rocky trellis]

yeah that's part of the story

[hybrid mist]

It was made by the dwarfs

They where mining

[rocky trellis]

but then lost comms

you're gonna reclaim that shit

cuz ur a reclaimer

[sage verge]

Ah, so it was DRG. But then we lost contact, after the FAFO scale was broken

[rocky trellis]

haha yeah

reclaimers are meant to be some more elite type of dwarf meant to do more special sauce stuff. in this case, go in there and get the property/stuff back. Expenite is the super-cocaine type of mineral they want

[wanton skiff]

You shouldn't dig precious core, it will get you killed

[swift chasm]

kinds caught me off guard the reclaimers tech seems more closer to rival tech
the sharp angler looks

[rocky trellis]

it's like 10x(nitra+red sugar) (I made this up)

maybe there will be some plot twist

[wanton skiff]

Reclaimers pay Premium subscription that's how they get the cool atuff

[rocky trellis]

i think karl spent a lot of time down there, got addicted/altered by expenite --shooting it up, snorting it, etc., made friends with the planet, realized how poorly DRG was treating the planet. Karl even got to talk to all the animals down there as expenite enhanced his communication abilities (or maybe he was just hallucinating all of it). Now he awaits ready to destroy DRG deep inside. hahahahahahaha final enemy is a dwarf twice as big, only has an axe and shoes, high and smart as hell, super strong and durable, jumping around ready to crush the team.

[wanton skiff]

You were supposed to be a hero, Karl

[rocky trellis]

hahaha

[wanton skiff]

Surely the "core" we see in the trailer isn't the real core, right?

Too small for a planet

[brittle kiln]

Hello everyone

[rocky trellis]

oh. yeah you mean the ball thing? i meant like just the general location in the planet. probably a huge huge area that's just deeper than all the caves we've been in thus far

expenite affected karl a bunch more because he's been down there a long long time and he's just special (more sensitive to it). but the reclaimers feel effects as time/missions go on -- negative and positive. getting more coke'd up but also feeling some down sides.

alright i'll stop the fanfiction bs lmao

[ivory fog]

i wonder if we will be able to customize our characters like we do in drg

[wanton skiff]

unlockable skins? Risk of Rain 2 style?

[inner delta]

When does the alpha start?

This sunday is literally DRG day with my friends so it would be awesome if we could try it out then

[fading thistle]

hopefully they get dual flamethrowers and most importantly beer

[hybrid mist]

A dev said in the next week's

[inner delta]

Dang ok

Maybe for the next one

[wanton skiff]

Don't get too hopeful, you might not get the access

🥺

[rocky trellis]

yeah. in batches. i mean once they have a sufficient sized group, they will get the feedback they need/want. allowing 10-1000x that or something all at once probably is overwhelming and unnecessary. but I'm sure it'll keep growing at intervals. i don't have any high hopes.

considering the discord size lmao

[swift chasm]

I do hope I get in the alpha build, see if it's able to be played on steam deck

[eternal cairn]

I hope that video game

That's it, just video game

[pale blaze]

In a similar boat here, just Ubuntu Linux instead of SteamOS. Given how well base drg runs with proton rc should be fine, but we won’t know until it in in our hands

[swift chasm]

I'm still impressed drg runs so well with almost 50+ mods active at once

[pale blaze]

drg truly is a gem of a game that keeps surprising

[snow plume]

let me in please...

[hybrid mist]

I got 1200 hours on this game, they NEED to let me in

[dreamy radish]

I have like 2 hours in, surely I get access

Very excited, game looks beautiful

Maybe grass is just greener but it looks much better than DRG

I also love the cosmetics and new weapons

Also new melees pog

[thin spire]

Also, I think Gaurdian is feminine.

[rocky trellis]

gary will be one of the first to get access

[thin spire]

There are some close ups that give it that look

[dreamy radish]

What are the new classes?

Can I also just mention the new drop pod looks so badass

[native monolith]

I’m starting to notice that more and more

It could very well be real

[keen shuttle]

Hello, anyone know if Mission Control would still be guiding us throughout the run?

[native monolith]

Guardian, spotter, falconeer, slicer

[native monolith]

Yes and no

iirc he will be there till the barrier but you lose contact with him past it

Because of the grey out

[dreamy radish]

Also I hope we get to customise all classes as either male or female

Would be dope

[rocky trellis]

do dwarves have as much sexual dichotomy as humans? i.e., you expect them to be that different anyways considering the non-photorealistic nature of the game, etc.

[keen shuttle]

A I see

[young vessel]

dwarves are clones grown in labs which is why the "i thought you died" and "didnt i see you at the bar last night" voicelines exist

[rocky trellis]

i mean other than doing some kind of pelvic exam... (following link is to a screenshot from the trailer, just trying to figure out which dwarf the people are referencing)

https://i.ibb.co/k2p9wr00/460.png

[dreamy radish]

In some fantasy worlds, Dwarves are almost indistinguishable from the outside

[rocky trellis]

is the one circled in red the one that is guardian possibly?

[snow plume]

im sorry im not sniss but i swear im just a good! please let me in it looks soo dang cool!

[dreamy radish]

Idk if that will be/is the case in the DRG universe

[rocky trellis]

beardless and long hair might be the thing to convince people I guess. and some mods to put them in swimgear while doing a mission lmao

voice lines might be something else i guess

[dreamy radish]

It would be funny if you can change from male to female and vice versa but nothing actually changes

[rocky trellis]

pple have mentioned it before

[dreamy radish]

Like the voice lines do change

[keen shuttle]

As long as the female counterparts don't look like cutesy hourglass short-stacks, I'm balling with that

[dreamy radish]

On friendly fire "Oi, lad! Watch your fire!" would change to "Oi, lass! Watch your fire!" but both characters look the same

[rocky trellis]

hahaha. this reminds me of a star trek episode where riker was on a klingon ship and fitting in, and the female klingons were something else....

[dreamy radish]

Yeah I hate when fantasy species make the male variants all wacky and whatever but female variants are always hourglasss pure beauty figurines and what not

Like, seriously?

[keen shuttle]

Nah, male or female, they're all leaf lover's

💀

[keen shuttle]

I wanna look like a Miner, not a Minor

[dreamy radish]

Exactly

100 pound guns, beards and long hair looks good on men and women when they work for DRG!

[rocky trellis]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJEuCgR18Ug

[vague orchid]

Its very interesting to have a female dwarf in DRG now! I prolly wont play falconeer because it doesnt interest me

but it’s cool nonetheless

[dreamy radish]

I am not playing any of the classes

(Because I won't get to buy the game)

[rocky trellis]

well i dunno. some are joking. most are speculating. i mean even if there is, other than voice line stuff, or maybe particular look changes, it won't be any more? Like the hitbox won't be smaller or anything

[vague orchid]

its the DRG universe, devs can write their own fantasy i suppose

[rocky trellis]

back in my day, sometimes pple played the female variants due to that. or at least speculation that hitbox might be different. but mostly just trolling

but this was 1990s

[vague orchid]

lol

[dreamy radish]

I would love if practically nothing changes

[vague orchid]

Its just cool that the devs are trying new things and giving us new stuff to experiment with

I was shocked to see new dwarf faces..

[dreamy radish]

I wasn't

(I didn't notice)

[vague orchid]

all we have in drg are clones lol

basically

[inner delta]

Falconeer? I only saw the trailer and dev Q&A is there more info?

[noble peak]

Universal skin where the dwarves wear swimgear... over their power armor

[hollow palm]

Female dwarf is new to me, I thought it was like, the split beard

[native monolith]

There’s a different face shape that could very well be female dwarves

[hollow palm]

It’s a new face ye but i don’t think this one is female, just on a second look #drg-gallery message

[native monolith]

In less interested in that though and more interested if it’ll still be Jaiver if they do exist

[hollow palm]

I can definitely see it though

I mean I’d prefer they had full voice tbh

A Scot, Irish, Swede, German, cockney, or other European accent would fit right in

[native monolith]

Jaiver is iconic so I don’t really care either way who voices the mythical feminine dwarves

Could still just be a different fae shape though

[severe nymph]

Hello chat

[severe nymph]

Is that the guy who voices are current dwarves

[native monolith]

Yeah, Javier O’Neill

https://youtu.be/CSY11dHkjoM?si=DvnxYOzru5svlXM5

Definitely a very significant part of DRGs soul

[vagrant scaffold]

Huh. Just noticed the mods are already playing RC. Seems the first wave of testers is already in?

[severe nymph]

Agreed, idk it is too much but adding a voice picker could be cool

Tho idk if that's weird to have in rogue likes

[native monolith]

Mods are part of the cool kids club

They get it early I assume

[native monolith]

Like a pitch controller?

That would be kinda neat actually

[steel swan]

I can tell you in any game that has that almost everyone will pick the highest or lowest pitch option

[severe nymph]

Maybe, was thinking more a whole new va for each option?

Maybe that's too much work

[native monolith]

That would be a lot

DRG has like what, probably over 3000 voice lines for the dwarves at this point

I think Mission Control sits around there as well

[severe nymph]

Yeah probably waaay too much

[steel swan]

just pitch alone is already very versatile
it can make a man sound younger, or a young boy sound like a woman and vice versa

I mean even in drg there are some people that still get surprised that all the dwarves are voiced by one person

[limpid elm]

Hi there

[native monolith]

Well they’re not

It’s Jaiver who voices engineer and his three identical twin brothers with +20%, -20%, and -10%, pitch respectively

Or something like that I forgot

But it’s a really unique caste

[vague orchid]

exactly i was shocked to see a new face shape lol

[vague orchid]

falconeer is a class with a bird drone that can shoot stuff, like engineers sentries

[steel swan]

I wonder if rogue core will have all the same quarks as drg like animation canceling and such
and if a drg weapon's base stats (unmodified/no overclock) ever get touched will that retroactively apply to rogue core as well (assuming rogue core's weapons coming from drg share the same base stats as their versions in drg)

like if the gk2 got a +2 damage buff in season 6 in base drg would the gk2 in rogue core also then get +2 damage

[toxic herald]

Are the first wave of testers sent?

[chrome sundial]

Mods got in because they're cooler than us but first wave for normies is in like two weeks or so

[toxic herald]

EXCELLENT

[thorny marsh]

I don’t know who read my diary but Rogue core is like a dream for me. Every game I play with friends I end up being the miner dude. Any survival game, and when not doing survival it’s roguelikes. So this may just make my year. That’s saying a lot - I’m getting married in few months

[daring relic]

Rock and Stone, brother

very happy for ya

[errant kiln]

ROCK AND STONE
(hope the wedding is one to remember)

[dreamy radish]

But will it be a Rock and Stone themed wedding?

[rancid minnow]
