>>2360230Watched 30 minutes. Its just a bunch of lame ass streamers promoting their bullshit and introducing each other. There is no information about the actual game here.
more slop on the 25th?
21st, 23rd, or next week on the 28th or 30th
Kinda crazy how different and yet similar the game is from the alpha. Lots of changes, but the core is still there.
>>2362092
>>2362094I love seeing early iterations of games, models, soundtracks and ideas in general like this.
>>2362100
>>2362102https://streamable.com/pmz8f8>Burning greydwarf eyes in the fire makes a portal to world spawnI wonder how different the devs' ideas for the game were at the time, and what else has been cut.>Spears are just throwing spears>Depleting your stamina bar means you must wait for it to recover completely before you can do anything that uses stamina>Stone pickaxe (that can't terraform and swings like an axe)>Draugr instead of skeletons in meadows and black forest crypts>No weight limit>No parry>I really wish I knew how to enable the console, if it's even possible in this build. I'm not tech savvy enough to figure it out on my own, and there aren't exactly any easily found guides out there. I want to look under the hood and fly around.
I have never posted here before, so maybe you guys already know about all of this, or don't care in the first place. I just feel like sharing in case others are curious like me. I didn't play the game before the Steam release.>>2362111Turns out the console is just the chat menu. Very limited commands, but you can spawn items and mobs if you know their names.>ForestTrollHonestly I think I prefer this look over their current colors. I remember having to rub my eyes when I first spotted one on my first playthrough. This look would've made that moment even more special.
>>2362897The regular Troll and 2 star version is also in the game at this point, but they're called>Troll>ForestTroll>RedTroll respectively.
>>2362901The Elder is the only boss in the game, he functions almost identically from what I remember of the current build. I haven't played since Ashlands.
>>2362911However, instead of dropping the Crypt Key, it drops an "Elder Heart", which permanently increases HP from 100 to 125. You are much less squishy in this version as food is only healing, not a temporary max hp buff
>>2362921Oh, forgot to mention it also drops ElderBark, which is Ancient Bark today. Swamp trees just drop regular wood.
>Neat horned helmet>2 unused iron axe variations: Rusty and Dragur[sic]>Chisel and Adze as equippable tools, though seemingly without function
>>2362911While The Elder is the only boss in the game, there is an entity called Deer_god. It is not hostile and drops regular deer loot. Possible very early Eikthyr placeholder?
>>2363150>Iron can be found as Bog Iron in the swamp that you just pick up>Can also me mined in the Mountains>Both of which gives you Iron Ore>Far south you can find Meteorites that you pick up, but instead of Flametal it drops a bunch of Iron BarsMan, that would've made Iron so much more tolerable to farm lmao
>>2363224And some of these sprites are pretty soulful
>>2363270Okay I'm done spamming now. I did it mostly for myself as an outlet, but I hope some of you enjoy this as well.
>>2363270Pure soul.
>>2363278very cool alpha posts.I was actually going through some of their old videos the other day.https://youtu.be/o-Sjj-3H-rshttps://youtu.be/kTHqJ1LWs70https://youtu.be/NMS8rprH32ghttps://youtu.be/oNx-9YsOpBohttps://youtu.be/BSrJRrlVQII
>>2362897I think this stuff is neat but I'm OP
>>2363121i need this hat, they should let me craft this hat
For good measure I went through the .obj files.There were some somewhat interesting models in there. For example I didn't notice that The Elder altar had different statues in the alpha. >Corgi>Rabbit>Deer>Ancient SeedIn the modern build they're all ancient seeds>>2369873Nice. That "Running on logs" video is part of what convinced me to buy the game. I love niche stuff like that>>2371821They should at least not have removed it from the game entirely. I can see why it was removed, with the horned viking helm myth, but it is neat still. I'd be happy with just spawning it with the console commands
>>2372305And there are three models for the dragon head on the Longship. The left one is the one used in the current build. The right one is in the alpha as seen here >>2363278 The middle one is entirely unused from what I can remember or tell.
>>2372335There are also these, which kinda looks like POI's? Idk know if all of these are placeholders or something. I vaguely remember hearing about that spaceship looking thing, but IDK if anything is known about it. I can't tell how big these are supposed to be either, but in any case they all go unused
>>2372352And lastly there's this one, which is a bit more interesting. This really looks like a POI, and it even has a modeled interior. That's all I can dig up. I can't find the folder/archive for stuff like the stone cutter and forge for example, so there could be cut stuff in there as well, but that is beyond my abilities. Honestly I'm surprised I got as far as I did.
During the alpha, the top left image was the loading screen. I looked through the Steam release build, 0.142.6, and found the rest of these. Named>loading0 - loading9So at one point it seems they were planning somewhat random loading screens instead of just the troll and vikings in combat.Sadly however, these are the full size images.
>>2375627>Sadly however, these are the full size imagesExcept this one ofc. This is the full sized one found in the alpha.
Speaking of the troll loading screen, here's the full sized one. Seems in-game it applies a blue filter, and partly covers the top and bottom of it.
>>2375627>>2375636pretty!I wonder if they were supposed to change based on the biome you were loading into?>>2372352huh, i can kinda see the plains tower, ashlands castle, and mistlands ruins here, but that's with hindsighti also remember seeing the spaceship mentioned before in a video that was digging into the game files>>2372370this kinda just reminds me of burial chambers or some other kind of dungeon; maybe a scrapped plains village?
>>2380706>huh, i can kinda see the plains tower, ashlands castle, and mistlands ruins here, but that's with hindsightYeah, could be a very early rendition of those ideas, or just placeholders to give the others an idea of what they could do with them. Or complete coincidences lol.>this kinda just reminds me of burial chambers or some other kind of dungeon; maybe a scrapped plains village?Could be anything really. I think it looks a bit advanced for fulings, gives me more black forest or mountains vibes more than anything. But who knows what early ideas they had for Plains. I guess it's worth noting that it seems to be completely open world, as in there's no obvious entrance portal to a basement or anything like that that I can see.Whatever these are, none of them survived until the Steam release build (except the spaceship thingy for some reason)>I wonder if they were supposed to change based on the biome you were loading into?I can see it. But speaking of biome specific screens, there's these. Correct me if I'm wrong (I haven't played in ages), but they do not appear anywhere in the game, right? They could also be a loading screen idea, or probably more likely a background image for a journal entry for each biome
>>2382150Oh btw if they look familiar, and they're not in the game, it's probably becaus you've seen them on the fandom wiki biome pages
>>2382155Fun fact, in the alpha there's references to "deep forest", which is probably an early name for the black forest
>>2382159
>>2382161
Note that the filename for this one is "Heath", an early name for the plains>>2382162
Ahh, the now lost Mistlands... I really liked the old look. I like the current one as well, but this one with the skeletons and the spider webs, the oppressive darkness etc. really gave a horror vibe that the game now lacks. I wish they at least made a mini biome for this specific version of Mistlands, like a medium island on the world borders.>>2382166
>>2382178And lastly the Ashlands, though it is very uninteresting. Ashlands has been in the game for a surprisingly long time actually, it was already there in the alpha. That probably means they've had all kinds of ideas they've considered and never went ahead with.
surely there will be some news before May...surely the game will be in 1.0 before the Switch 2 release...
Is Valheim fun if you're by yourself?My friends work much more than me so I'd be playing by myself probably 70% of the time
>>2399986It was fun for me, had a blastCouple years later and me and my friends managed to organize a game day, and is fun with friends tooIts a bit of a different experience
so... any must-have mods lads? in a mood for some vikingkino
>>2402969I am always rawdogging it in vanilla.
Last pieces of cut content I can find.Most intriguingly is the combination of >damage_heat.png>Sun.png>SunProtection.pngand >Sandstorm.pngThose are damage and status effect icons. Correct me if I'm wrong, but even damage_heat goed unused, right? Do you think it could be an early idea for a weather effect in Ashlands? Given that Ashlands has been in the game forever, I can certainly see it. Guess we'll never know.I seriously did not realize the Draugr archers are female, until now. Anyone else? Just me?>nostroke.png>ShipMaterializer.pngWonder what these are. I seem to vaguely remember that you can spawn a longship using console commands, that sits on land for a few seconds before it automatically drops down and becomes a regular ship. Could be that, I suppose?
>>2402969valheim+ had mostly everything, i also installed an arrow fix mod that basically made even the base bow somewhat viable and a Z axis mod that let me swing at things that weren't on my plane, but that caused issues with mining those big iron scrap piles. also there's a model changer if you have a vroid you like.
news.https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/892970/view/508485755865138114?l=englishtl;dr, boss romance was april fools, val-con was cool, meatballs and drawbridge.
>>2408099I genuinely hate that they are so carefree about sharing """"teasers"""" all the time. I wish they didn't share anything specific like that. Those aren't teasers, they're spoilers. Modern games do this all the time now
>>2409250I don't think it's humanly possible to share even less than they do now. You want them to go from two screenshots per month to one?
>>2411049For me personally, yeah. I wouldn't need a single one at all. I've already bought the game, why would I need to know what is upcoming before it's here in full? I don't get excited seeing this stuff early, I get frustrated because discovering it for myself would've been much more enjoyable. I've never understood why someone who is already hooked on a game needs to know, it's not a ""live service"" or anything like that.Mind you, that's not to say I disagree with them sharing it for others. I just wish they didn't share the stuff in big ass pictures for all to see on the thumbail, even those who do not want to see. Hide it in the post itself and lead with a more generic picture. I check for news about when to expect the update, knowing there's drawbridges now takes away from me finding out organically.
>>2411474>punch a rock>new recipe unlocked: drawbridges!literally doesn't matter. you discover them before you build them.
>>2411697Disingenuous argument. I think you know what I mean, but since you disagree you don't care.And it goes beyond buildable stuff. I'd rather get ambushed by a bear without knowing it was a thing, but since they just plastered an image of one in their news post that was taken away from me.
I love this texture
Huh, Munin was already in the files in the Steam release build. Wonder why they made him white. Probably to differentiate them easier at a glance
>>2429525probablyidk why there's even a need to have two of themlike yeah odin canonically had two birds, but there's no real reason to have more than one tutorial bird
>>2405989>ShipMaterializer.png>>2372352>I vaguely remember hearing about that spaceship looking thing, but IDK if anything is known about it>>2380706>i also remember seeing the spaceship mentioned before in a video that was digging into the game filesI guess I found the answer to these.
