hello welcome to stranded deep this is a
Gork I'm back for another updates beam
team games has just released
experimental 0.54 for stranded deep it's
July 31st 2019 this just came out today
I'm really excited about this let's take
a look at the developer notes if you
want to see them yourself you can go to
beam team games.com and just scroll down
to the first item here and it'll open up
the intro and and text about it so let's
take a look at what it says 0.5 for
experimental built hey everyone
experimental update 0-5 for new female
character shipwrecks animals and much
more cool a new experimental build 0.5
4.0 0 is now available we're really
excited to be able to release a new
update it's no secret that it's been a
while since our last update the last few
months have been pretty hard for us as
we dealt with the paperwork and fallout
of telltale going bankrupt leaving our
console port in limbo it's all pretty
much behind us now and things are
looking up we're working on Co
publishing the game ourselves and we'll
have more news and a release date soon
thanks again to everyone who continues
to contribute and support our small
studio and stranded deep you're very
welcome
in the meantime we've been working away
behind the scenes on a new update and
here it is there's heaps of new stuff
who in this update and more to come so
check it out we've released this update
on the experimental branch for now but
will be following any bug reports
closely as we'd like to get this on the
stable branch as soon as possible
have fun stay alive being team games now
before I go and explain all of this I
just want to say that there was also an
experimental update 0.53 back in
February I didn't do a video on that so
there are a couple of pretty major
things that happened there amongst those
was the removing tarps completely from
the game they'll be adding cloth as a
spawn item on islands now instead of
tarps most of the reservoir all of the
recipes that used to use tarps now use
cloth the other big thing they did was
they added the ability to farm yucca
plants now that in itself is huge
because you'll need even more fibrous
leaves than you used or then you needed
before because there's no longer tarps
you have to use cloth so you can craft
cloth to build all those things that
used to require a tarp so if you have a
loom you can make those okay so let's go
on to the next
bugfixes I'm not gonna read all the bug
fixes because it's all it's it's a lot
of the stuff is stuff you don't even run
into most people cut some of the stuff
is things that you've seen before
maybe annoyed you maybe you just kind of
brush them off but you can read those
yourself changes will go down to that
area change the default controller
layout show watch is now y or triangle
this is on and if you're using a like a
xbox controller or something inventory
and crafting menu are bound to the l and
our bumpers cool remove spear
interaction can now pick objects off of
the spear i think that was sometimes
fish got caught on the end of your spear
or your fishing spear nerf to the UV sun
exposure overly complicated and hard to
understand yeah I've noticed a lot of
youtubers have no clue how that works so
that's probably a good thing that they
nerf that I'll have to see what they
actually did to it though change the
watch UV indicator to show if you are
protected from the Sun or not okay cool
underwater or in shade will show none
okay improve the watch feedback low
critical vitals will now flash that's
good improve the watch feedback again
remove the rounded values on vital bars
easier to monitor which vitals are
depleting not sure what that means but
okay added SPF sun protection factor
vital to the watch that's cool
tells you if you got sunscreen or not or
how much you have or if it's wearing off
I guess I don't know
remove the sleep vital from the watch
because it had no in-game effects you
can still sleep through the night okay
fine remove the clock screen from the
watch waste of screen space the clock
date and UV now appear as a top
bara that is always visible on any
screen I assume they mean that on the
watch I don't know we'll check it out
but that would be nice okay we'll see
increase the watch size on the screen
cool
change the private jet intro nice added
distant billboards for missions okay I
assume that means that it's easier to
find the missions out in the middle of
the ocean now because before they were
pretty hard to spot at times you have to
see this little mast you know the water
maybe they've added a bigger something
or other so you can see it easier added
a new screen intro alright we'll check
that out
added a new female character baby
alright select from the new character
gender option when creating a new game
to play as either a male or female
character cooperative gameplay will
assign both genders but these can be
alternated from the gender option I
wonder if that means that you have to
have one player as a male and one as a
female
I don't almost did I don't play co-op so
I don't know changes are purely cosmetic
means there's no difference to your
actual gameplay there she is
those shoes really are not practical
young lady you should put some running
shoes on or something or are maybe
flip-flops sure added female voiceover
audio clips I guess that would be for
the female character added clean
character clothing models for the intro
private jet scene yay
no more tattered clothes while you're
still flying on the jet good added game
difficulty settings Oh awesome
select three types of game difficulties
from the new difficulty option when
creating a new game please note these
settings cannot be changed once the
world has been created so choose wisely
normal difficulty place trying to deep
the way it was meant to be played
whether you are new or experienced okay
Hard difficulty play stranded deep with
more of a challenge vitals deplete
faster side effects are more dangerous
resources are harder to harvest and
creatures do more damage oh I like it
I'm going to be playing on Hard
difficulty later on creative creative
difficulty what place trying to deep
without worrying about your vitals or
taking any damage
you will still need to come on you will
still need to harvest and scavenge
resources but without the constant
threat of dying you are invincible also
you wear a nice hat so everyone knows
you like see oh man oh really you still
have to harvest stuff scabbit come on
creative should be like like in
minecraft where you can just you want
like unlimited clay click on clay and
have unlimited clay don't make us have
to scavenge that stuff it takes way too
long alright maybe they'll change that
in the future I mean if you if you like
building and you really like that kind
of creative mode and like minecraft for
example I mean everybody's played
Minecraft so I'm gonna use that as the
example you can you can just build like
massive structures in Minecraft using
all of the available resources why can't
you do that in stranded deep that would
be so much easier is it I love building
stuff I'd love to be able to build like
a like a resort on my beach or a big
mansion or some fancy thing that
currently in the game it takes way too
long to gather up enough resources to
build anything big so I tend not to
build anything big but oh well maybe
next time
added animal difficulty settings cool
select three types of animal
difficulties from the new animal
difficulty option when creating a new
game this option is separate to the
game's difficulty setting for those who
like to customize their experience
please note these settings cannot be
changed once the world has been created
normal animals animals will behave
normally set to the standard difficulty
if you select passive animals sharks and
snakes will not attack bosses will still
attacked select removed animals sharks
are removed from the generation and will
not spawn bosses will still be generated
Wow for all of you out there who hate
sharks get paranoid or paralyzed
whenever there's a shark around you can
now play without sharks wow that should
be a big thing for a lot of people I
don't mind the Sharks I mean they're a
challenge they they add a bit of
excitement to the game they prefer
food they provide what do you call them
rawhide for leather so I like having the
sharks in the game and I think they
should be even more aggressive than they
actually are they should actually be a
threat to kill you in this game but and
it's very rare that you actually die
from a shark attack unless you're
already really really very low health in
which case you probably shouldn't be out
in the water where there are sharks but
mm-hmm all right let's go on to the next
one
add a new player stamina Oh interesting
stamina is displayed by a yellow bar at
the bottom of the screen when sprinting
or sprint swimming sprint swimming is
that a thing can you sprint swim how do
you do that okay once stamina is drained
the bar will turn red and a cool-down
penalty will be applied until stamina is
fully replenished sprint and sprint
swimming require and consume stamina
stamina can be increased by training the
physical skill see below added new
player skills that goes along with the
one above this is interesting but pop up
I'm still making surviving easier and
unlock different content skills can be
viewed from the new player skills watch
screen the hunting skill hunting skill
level affects the amount of damage belly
and ranged weapons do to creatures in
the world hunting experience can be
gained by killing creatures the more
dangerous the creature the more
experience you gain that makes sense
you go around killing a lot of crabs
you're not going to get a lot of
experience you kill a bunch of sharks
you're gonna be like up mmm
macho hunter guy poor girl cooking skill
really cooking skill cooking levels
affect the amount of calories food gives
a higher cooking level will give more
nutrients cooking experience is gained
by cooking foods no way that doesn't
seem to make sense okay obviously it
does harvesting skills harvesting levels
affect the amount of damage done to
resources when using tools a higher
harvesting level will gather resources
quicker harvesting experience can be
gained by harvesting resources such as
trees rocks clay scrap and wood
I want to be able to one one-shot a tree
I want to chop it and knock it down with
one hit that's my goal
physical skill physical levels affect
your stamina and oxygen higher physical
levels increase how long you can sprint
and hold your breath underwater physical
experience can be gained by swimming and
building structures with a hammer okay
I'm going to become big and strong by
hammering okay crafting skill crafting
experience is gained by crafting items
and building structures the more
advanced the object or structure you
craft the more experience is gained
certain crafting combinations are now
locked until the crafting level
requirement is met oh that's great I
love that because no more these people
that come into the game and they want to
build themselves a house like from day
one it's like you don't even have a
water still or a fire pit yet and you're
wanting to build a house come on you
gotta kind of progress through the steps
that you have to do in order to get to
the point where it's worthwhile to spend
time building a house or the people who
go in and build a gyrocopter from day
one or day two it's like really
I like that they've done that that's
really cool all right so they have some
new watches here these are interesting
they've flipped all the bars sideways
instead of vertically they're now
horizontal you've got your hearts you've
got a meat thingy that's food that's
water and then the bottom one I think
that says SPF okay cool
the middle one I can't read with all
those are those must be your skills and
the last one status effects healthy okay
added sprint swimming for faster
underwater movement there you go
they've added sprint swimming you can't
sprint swim now but you've added it
there you go I thought I was losing
though what what has never been sprint
swimming all this time and I didn't no
no they've added it in this version cool
added new tool belt craftable items and
hotkey bar each tool belt level unlocks
more hotkey slots and the next level
tool belt
what keyboard uses zero to nine
controller controller uses d-pad for the
first four slots what tool belt you can
have a tool pals that would be so handy
oh this is gonna be cool all right added
a new container shelf stacker craftable
item I don't mean this I guess they
didn't like people using the raft you
know leaving the floorboards off a raft
in order to put all their crates Wow
at a new container shelf stacker
crushable item this can you can craft
this and it can be placed on rafts
structures or terrain each shelf allows
for three storage containers to be
stored securely oh that's nice that's
gonna be interesting Wow if you can
stack them three high like that I wonder
how many you can place on each it looks
like in the photo it might only be one
of those per raft section that's gonna
change a lot of stuff that's gonna
change how people build their rafts
that's gonna that's that's gonna change
a lot of stuff I like it but it's gonna
change a lot of stuff all right
added spyglass loot item oh nice for
getting a better look at far objects
very very nice added a new goblin shark
nice added a new whale shark oh I love
whale sharks added a new hammerhead
check I love those too
I did a new giant grouper fish Oh
Turtles added a new turtle I love it oh
my god added new yacht shipwreck added
new Polynesian shipwreck added new plane
shipwreck ah Amelia Earhart's plane they
did it that's probably not Amelia hurts
but okay added a new tinker shipwreck oh
this is awesome look at this added no
added new survivor shelters from past
survivors oh that's sweet that actually
looks like you could use it as a shelter
unlike the current shelter which is this
tiny little triangle that you can't even
crawl inside they call it a shelter but
it doesn't shout there anything restored
the wooly Easter egg restored the divers
slate Easter egg I don't know what that
one is that must have been from Reich a
really early version of the game I've
never seen that diverse slate in the
game restored the parcel Easter egg
that's the dead x package added new raft
controls hmm to see what those are added
new raft animations
dev notes blah blah blah okay awesome
that looks really cool I'm excited for
this let's head over to the game and see
what we get
alright so stranded deep is starting up
you can see the new animation here with
the water in the background the deep
blue ocean I guess press Enter you can't
click on this anymore you have to hit
the enter key on your keyboard and this
will load up I am so excited for this
this is gonna be great I have been
waiting for this update for so long they
updated this in version 53 or 0.53 the
Start screen now is an aerial shot of
your island now this this you can't
really see much because the last time I
save the game it was the middle of the
night so all you can see is kind of a
vague outline of my island and a bunch
of lights
those are lanterns is all scattered
around my island yeah so if it was
daytime this would be a daytime shot
which would be a little bit more
interesting than the nighttime shot my
apologies for that but we'll see what we
get on the left here we have you option
to continue start a new game the Katara
fur options and quit all right before
you start a new game if you want to save
your existing world now what I'm gonna
do all right so what I'm gonna do is I'm
gonna start a new game so I want to
select a female character if I can so
I'm gonna save my old world because this
has my old tutorial on it and the world
that I was playing at that time I don't
want to lose that so you can't have
multiple saves in this game currently so
what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna go and
save my folder now it is under documents
stranded deep data experimental this is
the version I'm currently playing this
is the standard version and this is the
experimental version so I'm going to
copy that entire folder and I'm gonna
save that
under I'm just gonna make a new folder
and I'm gonna call it SD saves can't
type and in that folder I'm gonna just
paste the experimental folder so that
I'll know it's there I can reinstate it
later if I screw up or if something goes
wrong or if I just want my old game back
okay so let's close that and let's click
new game do you want to start a new game
this could overwrite your existing safe
game which it probably will do so let's
just say yes now we can use the existing
world that I was on it will have all of
your existing islands but it won't have
all of your stuff it won't have your
buildings that won't have your rafts it
won't have anything it'll be like
starting all over again just on the same
world so I'm gonna say random and just
start a new one single-player oh yeah
see there there's one answer cooperative
one male one female
alright difficulty level normal hard
creative just gonna leave it at normal
for now wildlife normal passive or
removed we're gonna leave that at normal
male let's go female and let's start and
see what happens
I want to see how how different this
startup sequence will be yes I'm aware
of that alright so we backed up my old
world we're getting a new startup
sequence let's see what they've done to
the jet scene at the beginning whether
it's completely different or just
tweaked or what what they've done to it
let's go
yeah turbulence oh look his G or her
clothes are clean not ripped that's nice
looks pretty much the same otherwise
yeah yep still the same Oh
we're not even underwater or are we I
don't know are we no we're not we're on
the surface of the water oh this is
different
mr. pilot where are you I would come to
save you no I can't all right let's go
Oh
yeah that's still really loud but yeah
that was interesting the plane wasn't as
owned as far underwater as it used to be
so you don't have to risk drowning you
just swim along the surface there
alright so we are on the surface there's
an island and yeah looks pretty much the
same see what's in our storage area
bandage compass and rashes all right
let's grab the paddle
oh dude where you going
he's leading all the way over the side
here okay this must be the new raft
animation they talked about oh okay this
is a little bit wonky it's hard to tell
what direction you're supposed to be
going it makes more sense though that he
is bent over like that because that's
what you do have to do in order to
paddle all right so let's go up put that
back up out Oh
that was a female noise alright so we
are on our island oh look at this down
here we have some that must be the tool
belt slots at the bottom of the screen
there there lots interesting wow that's
a big watch done a little girl okay 9:43
in the morning 2nd of June the UV is
high we have full healthful food full
water and we have full SPF we have no
skills whatsoever and we're healthy but
yeah you can see the time and date and
the UV are always there at the top of
the screen so that's I guess what they
meant with that otherwise it's gonna be
pretty much the same old same old I
think oh look at her shadow whoo freaky
long arms true alright so we are a
female and we have very long arms
alright so let's just do a few normal oh
look at that there's the little yellow
bar if I run you can see the yellow bar
on the bottom of the screen
that's my stamina and you can see if
that depletes as I run around too much I
just want to see how much I can actually
run around here before I get fatigued
Lotus Eagle I don't know if I the heck
is that big hunking thing out in the
distance that's one big monster thing
right there whatever that is I want to
see what that is all right we'll get to
that eventually rocks sticks alright it
seems that the stamina regenerates
pretty quickly so you as long as you
just do kind of short spurts of running
you should be fine it's not gonna do too
much to need an aloe plant Pippy bleeds
and there's the cloths instead of tarps
that I talked about all right lots of
picked a little noise she makes when she
jumps whoo-hoo okay cool I'm sorry I'm
an easily amused all right let's run
around grab some stuff all right
otherwise it looks pretty much the same
not much difference in the rock there
the island generation movin bushier than
normal isn't it I don't know I'm just
grabbing sticks and stuff look okay
let's drop some of these drop those drop
the elbow plants drop the tarps no more
sticks all right cool I'm liking it I
don't see any monster shipwrecks on this
island but like I say off in the
distance there that one Island it had a
huge shipwreck on it so that's cool
let's make a stick that
get ourselves a knife I don't want to
play this game I'm not I'm not gonna go
through the whole rigmarole of playing
and everything I just wanted to see the
basic start up what the island was like
what was difference we'll have to get
into some actual gameplay before we find
out what a lot of these new features are
I don't know how you do the Sprint
swimming let's see if I can swim here
get underwater come on there you go how
do you sprint no no I don't know she
seems to be pretty darn fast underwater
I think I'm sprinting yeah I must be my
yellow bars going down I don't know why
all my sprinting oh I think I had
pressed the shift key oh yeah okay so
yeah sprinting that's pretty fast
she's pretty quick with the sprinting I
gotta give her that I like it that's
cool all right we got here
we don't know lashing yep wait oh that
knife yep let's get us some yucca plants
now this is the other new thing for a
yucca plants that came out in version
0.53 it now comes with this extra little
piece right up here you can see it's a
yucca cutting and this you can pluck it
and you can plant it in a farming plot
then you can grow your own yucca plants
what was that
okay yucca cutting does not have had
texture apparently it's just a big
square I like it
ah but there we can hold it in our hand
looks like a fancy little heading nice I
like it
oh let's see what else we got on here is
there only one yucca plant down here I
might just not seeing the other ones
huh
sorry I keep repeating what she's saying
well I get used to the new sounds
there's a lot of fun here juga
all right so we've got all sorts of
stuff here Pippy plants so we can
already build ourselves a antidote so
that's nice more rocks alright do you
see any more shipwrecks around here
yeah there's one out there I can see you
can see the bubbles on the horizon
there's actually one over there as well
I'm just gonna say to heck with it I
don't care if they're sharks I'm going
for it well oh there's a big grouper
fish hello buddy
I hope you're not dangerous I'm assuming
he's not it's pretty big though look at
that guy
Oh giant grouper hello
what if you can kill him huh neat where
did that shipwreck go huh forget I
forgot to breathe wow I like the Sprint
swimming that's so cool alright that
that'll help you kind of get away
quickly or surface very quickly if you
need to I like it
Oh a turtle I saw a turtle shadow oh
sure oh there's a turtle it's gonna be
fun getting used to these sounds oh my
god wow we saw a turtle and a grouper
nice stop that
stop running yeah all right so after all
that running around and stuff I want to
look at my watch and you can see that my
food and water have started to go down
and my SPF is almost depleted as well
oh my harvesting skills have gone up I'm
assuming that's what that is a physical
and craftsmanship and I'm cooking and
hunting haven't done anything all right
let's take that with us all right so I'm
not gonna do too much more than this on
this episode I'm excited by this new
version of the game looks like there's
lots of stuff for me to explore and to
look into so I think what I'll do is
I'll pretty much just end it here and
say yeah thank you for watching I hope
you're excited about this is just as
excited as I am anyways and I'm gonna
spend the next while exploring setting
up my island I'm gonna check a couple of
other islands see if I can find some of
those other sea creatures see if I can
find some of the different shipwrecks
and other content that they've added to
this and I'll do a follow-up video when
I got enough material and I will show it
to you guys
and post that as soon as I can so yeah
thank you very much for watching I hope
you enjoyed it and hopefully we will see
you again very soon this is a Gork
signing off bye for now
