Raft Hard Mode - Metal and More // EP2

greetings everybody rodman here thank you for tuning in to episode 2 of raft which originally streamed live on twitch [Music] so this bed is vulnerable because that section can be nibbled so i'm going to want to enforce it as fast as i can and that is no moon all right last of my resources going to reinforce that thing oh there's an island okay i don't have the resources to make a weapon so i can't stop them they get to chew whatever they want and there goes my bed yeah it wasn't worth making i thought putting it where i put it would have saved it but it did not [Music] yeah i don't even have the uh the planks to uh put that back [Music] here we go all right learn my lesson no beds no beds until i'm larger [Music] also because i'm desperate for wood i really can't stay away from the seagull nest but once i make landfall once i'm on the island the seagulls will have a chance to nest [Music] oh i pulled that in too much no [Music] [Applause] [Music] i do actually have enough for a weapon now barely like every last penny i have but every last plank i should say but a worthwhile investment i think [Music] lanto indeed head straight there [Music] [Music] don't i have a bolt i do we got a scrap hook so the scrap hook is an upgraded uh normal hook you throw it farther you pull it in faster and you resource farm the oceans more quickly it's just me or those sharks look um revived i felt like i had done more damage to them but they looked very healthy so scrapbook is a good find and or good craft i should say all right get me some tree loot look for fruit there's a pineapple there [Music] two sharks [Music] and no more trees i don't see any fruit [Music] uh let's see smelter needs scrap and nails which is just scrap so um did i have any no so i'll have to get some [Music] so you'll see the advantage of this hook one tap harvest much faster than two allowing me to uh sort of grab before the sharks get wise that i'm collecting in their ocean uh why is this seaweed have no collectible that's lame unworthy all right well this is the edge that's furthest from my raft so if i get closer to the wrap the sharks will uh will sniff me out i'll probably not be able to loot anymore because yeah here they come all right so either i die or they die i barely kept that wrap together uh i have seven planks uh i i have to leave i'm not gonna build to resource gather here because i'm going to run out of planks for for for a new spear and then be totally defenseless so away we go but the the new scrapbook that i have here is going to really help to improve my resource gathering um because i'll have greater range and i can cast it and pull it in faster and i have more bolts left over to be able to make um additional ones later on so smelter uh i'm not gonna place it down yet because there's nowhere all that safe for me to put it that can't be eaten by sharks and that would be uh i would lose that would be devastating i'm not gonna be able to get um unless i get metal tools i'm not gonna be able to fight two sharks off in order to harvest the clay and sand needed for a new smelter so just gotta be patient or the smalter will end up like the bed so now there's a little bit more room and there's my smelter so with this smelter uh let's start to process metal ore through it [Music] requires a lot of wood but that's going to unlock you know shark murdering weaponry much needed shark murder weaponry so i have a 3x5 raft now as well uh which is a good little footprint [Music] so in order to get the metal spear i need a feather oh no those are arrows [Music] arrows look so much like a spear i need just an ingot and then two more ingots on top of that so three metal away from having a metal sphere which is going to be a game changer against these sharks also these sharks look a little wounded so i'm gonna let them tear pieces off so that i can uh i can capitalize on the next island i make landfall at hey scissor line welcome salt water yeah [Music] oh man [Music] all right there's ingot number one research it i learned shears shovel anchor cooking grill spear net launcher and cooking pot [Music] oh yeah we're in the iron age now so let me update the priority here um get a metal spear so now i have to if you take a look at the cost i need two more metal ingots to make the spear i already have the bolts i found them so keep the ingots the uh the the iron must flow the metal must flow it's like i'm playing factorio right i also probably need to feed myself because i'm uh low-key starving come on fish thank you oh i have a beat i guess already all right that's ingot number one uh panic i'm probably not even going to be able to uh um well we'll see i'm a little worried about not even being able to make this spear before they start taking more precious chunks out of my raft just as a reminder i don't want to hurt them because they're too close to being dead and i don't want a deep ocean kill because that's kind of pointless well sight and the only reason to kill them in the deep ocean is if you're starving and you need the shark meat but that's uh not super likely to to be the case come on great have some goodies uh a beat oh oh what oh that's a special island hold on let me try to get oh oh oh let me try to get over there that's a rare island [Music] don't sharks respawn they do but they take minutes to respawn so you can kill them when you get you can kill them when you get close to uh the shore and then benefit from their death by maximizing your resource gathering in the shallows when they're dead so i have a metal spear here it is much drunk poke much drunk poke i'm trying to think of what i do next what would be good next probably in yet another metal spear i think or a grill a grill would be good too yes this version is going a little bit more smoothly even if i was resource star for bits i think that the uh the birds nest can't get to that because it's uh it's like underneath if i can't put it i'm really strapped for space i'll just put it there birds nests are to collect feathers for arrows and paint brushes and stuff like that let's try it there all right now that we're near the a new island uh it might be worth me a making an anchor so i don't float away and i need one more stone for that and b uh killing these sharks so that i can gather stuff in the shallows it actually looks like i'll be able to embed myself pretty pretty easily so maybe i won't need it to anchor up but i do need to water up my water situation is bad what's special about this island uh it has a shipwreck it's a it's a rare island um you don't see shipwrecks like this very often so this one has its uh little shipwreck that i can grab a radio and plastic planks and a captain's hat oh yes i am the captain now so here's what i look like with the captain set and there's of course other stuff here as well there's a crate down here with a whole lot of stuff holy cow uh yeah that was a lot of stuff going to make a large storage box and have literally nowhere to put it let me get off the raft here and grab wood real quick so i can protect that storage box there it's protected now come on sharks let's uh let's make space in my inventory so that i can well i'm also starving i'm very thirsty all right so there those sharks are uh very very close to dead um so it should be pretty easy to finish them off uh very soon so i can scour let's grab fruit from the island feed myself did i drop anything inside that hall i can check again items despawn and rather quickly though five minutes or something so i hope i didn't [Music] big old help sign [Music] no it doesn't look like any fruit over here but my food and water is much better than it was well all right there it is this rare style island i'll check the boat make sure i didn't accidentally hit q q is the drop key and it's pretty easy to like oh yeah there's a omelette recipe that i dropped good call mushroom omelettes not a food source you're probably going to use all oh feathers yes seagull thank you so now i can learn how to make paintbrush arrows hammock and bolts and stuff that i hadn't researched previously so i need uh four more feathers to make uh my first um my first arrows but then i also need other resources to make the bow but that that's a good find very low on plastic all right where's this oh here we go and they're both dead rock gone timed very well and now i think i am well i'm gonna go into the ocean and look for uh some scrap and some uh medals and probably uh for sand and because they're dead they're gonna take three minutes to respond so i have three minutes to just sort of resource gather without being uh nibbled and i also have an enormous amount of shark meat to cook oh i should also get um seaweed seaweed's good seaweed you don't you can just whiz by and hit e to collect very fast very much like uh like subnautica oh god all right so here's a new type of underwater enemy called a poison puffer they're very dangerous and i kill it nope i did oh yeah i killed it and they yield explosive goo and i got one explosive cue from him which i will uh convert to research soon hey morty a full year congrats dude and thank you i appreciate it it's awesome to see people coming back so sand uh this is just copper i'm gonna need a whole lot of copper later on but copper right now copper is not used for metal tools or for uh weapons so copper is really useful for electricity later but early on it's it's all about trying to get um metal in my opinion or at least on hard mode and i am coming up very short on being able to find uh metal here okay i should probably make my way back to the raft soon although i am on the far side of the island so the sharks are less likely to find me here but i am resource starved and everything's just stupid stones i don't want stones i guess this uh unique island has much higher rate of oh here's another poison popper let's go for it let me get my oxygen maxed before attempting it [Music] so if you let this thing get too close to you it explodes in a massive cloud of poison uh which is very high damage [Music] there goes another puff where's his body oh here it is i'm blind and now i have two goo two of their heads their heads are also um very useful to use not just as cosmetics later on you can turn their heads into fuel for your boat don't throw them out don't throw out any of the heads in fact oh god everything is stupid copper you're killing me game you're killing me whatever all right i'm leaving this island i'm pissed this island the silence cursed just a bunch of copper garbage i'll demo when you uh run out of oxygen just for your fyi so you'll see my health bar slowly going down it's not instant and you can technically out heal it i wouldn't advise wasting your um you heal for that is there a name on the side of this boat i don't know it's a very fine question i don't uh i don't see one it's bad bad luck to have an unnamed boat isn't it we're gonna go with no i didn't didn't didn't immediately see one so my next uh big upgrade here would be the advanced purifier oh did i i'm an idiot i didn't get enough sand for that so let me get one more sand it's going to be pretty important to do and the sharks are back let me try to find one easy to grab sand so the water purifier is a much much much better way of getting your water because it doesn't require flanks to burn which is a a huge bottleneck to being able to expand your raft right so um the the advanced grille and the advanced water purifier are musts early on but quite frankly i am not finding uh sand nodes either and i'm very hungry and thirsty so i might just have to give up on the search i think when i was looking for metal i saw one note of sand and oh here here's one as long as i'm safe to grab it [Music] all right let's let's go [Music] looks like the ss minnow gilgames island it could be hey there's scrap on the roof all right now now we're good to go let's shove off the real advantage of the um the metal spear is it's uh two taps gets the sharks to piss off which allows you to keep your repair costs lower as long as you respond quickly to their attacks i am a little stuck oh you know what i didn't even need that sand i already i had um i had glass already i need a faster to cook food than the shark meat i'm very hungry doing a little bit of organization and we have some more feathers i'm still also like completely jammed up into this cove with no plastic to be able to make my uh escape which is not great but hopefully i can jiggle my way out um if i focus on it raptor tell them thanks for the bits you're excited to watch the butt it uh started spicy oh yep here we go now i'm having the slow down effect eat the potato thank you raptor i always like uh seeing you in the audience what is the angle it's a little open-ended kind of has a story but it's not focused on a story i think i'm gonna need a paddle i think i'm gonna need a paddle out of here so i might need to search around the island to collect uh to collect plastic for a paddle because i don't see myself being able to uh unless the courage change i'm not gonna get out of here oh this is this is bad news so for a paddle i need plastic and planks oh god i don't have any of that stuff get unstuck this is my current goal so my best bet well no all right looking at my current food situation too i need to stick around until i can eat the shark meat because otherwise um i starve and i go walk around slowly is there anything else i can eat i could start fishing i guess [Music] hey phelps thanks for uh convert converting your gift over to a uh to a sub oh oh no no stupid waves trying to get me killed so one more sand and i can make a water purifier but again i don't really have the plastic for that either but here we go here's my um precious shark that's going to sustain me for a bit all right off to try to get myself a paddle because i am wedged in so the best way to do that is to see if there's debris around the island because there's not going to be any plastic on the island ever i'm a little worried that i have to swim for it and that's not going to be cool yeah because the debris field is all sort of towards the sharks right now oh there's a little brewery over there you can go that way oh there's dirt here oh oh i might want to shovel too but all right let's focus on the paddle this that's urgent oh this doesn't make me feel good [Music] that's a lot of swimming how much plastic was it six oh dear lord i'll put on the red light [Music] the water's bad my food is bad i'm in deep freaking ocean [Music] super vulnerable get cheese ready [Music] i think i have the plastic now [Music] and it was planks i need to get planks [Music] all right i have the planks [Music] i am in danger i will try to not have this kind of scarce resource in the uh this isn't being greedy i honestly to survive if i didn't do this i would be dead for sure i'll put it that way my boat is stuck and i'm gonna run out of uh resources to be able to keep myself watered oh here we come he found me so if i didn't do this i was dead for sure so it was uh unnecessary risk this isn't greed [Music] all right let's stupid breeze can i yeah no i'm still very stuck oh here you come off get the hell out of here oh come on that's not how to use that now there is durability for the paddle so i don't want to paddle more than i need to but i think i'm i'm now unstuck uh so the big next upgrade oh look at my water would be the advanced water purifier so i need to save up uh four more plastic for that i have the glass already and maybe oh wait or try to get arrows as well that was a bad situation all right i'm back off of the red light now i'm a little safer i don't have enough wood to um to really smell oh i kill you nope one more feather that's a start one more and it can i can start to make arrows puppy treats got it [Music] it's a plastic complaints uh i'll also update the priority get advanced water and food that would be big [Music] well there was a potato in that something [Music] uh you get hook durability per hook per time you cast it out that connects with something if you get multiple things in one hook it doesn't do more damage though so getting combos or whatever you want to call it is ideal [Music] but if i throw it and you know pull it back it doesn't cause any uh problems no durability loss all right uh two planks for the advanced purifier well not that one one wood is 50 so if i can keep the sharks from biting a bit too much i can keep the cost to repair it down which is what i've been trying to do all right it is advanced purifier time so that means this old purifier let me grab that last sip i'm throwing this thing in the sea i won't need it anymore the advanced purifier is larger though um i'm gonna stick that here where it's bite safe and that can store up to five uh sips of water and uh it uses solar to filter so much better so next is the advanced grill let me update so the advanced grille allows you to cook multiple things at once which is a lot more wood uh efficient than this basic grill and that would be this so i need um i almost have everything i need for it actually uh one more plank and that's it not bad where's the other one there you are [Music] all right so now i have uh water that does not require flanks which is incredible and as you can see water is no longer going to be a problem for me at all and one more plank gets me the advanced grill which makes beating myself a lot better as well so got that advanced grill as soon as that uh that shark meat cooks i'll get rid of the basic grill and replace it with an advanced there's so much wood coming can't collect it all [Music] i could slow myself down i guess and this is what this looks like oh there we go got it old grill begun there is a point keeping shark heads there's a point keeping all heads uh you you use them as a resource uh later on all right so that's safe and now the meat may my dietary uh demands be met oh manta ray now those kind of animals you can't really interact with they're like uh design only so you can't kill them you can't eat them you can't fight them they don't fight you they just they're for appearances only not all animals are like that some you can fight other than the sharks but we haven't found any yet [Music] okay so the new project here is um expand the the floor print of the raft is the next big thing so the resources that i have now i'm going to be investing in making my raft bigger and getting ready for the receiver and the antenna i also hope i had an island soon because these sharks look uh roughed up and i want to get to an island so i can resource gather i'm also going to new spear and hook so new hook is gonna cost me a bolt and scrap and then a new spear soon as well cause uh my spear is gone almost bye bye old purifier don't need you anymore [Music] how about some nets yeah i'll do nets soon that's part of expanding the footprint i have a i have a design in mind a blueprint for the raft so i need to put nets where i want nets uh for like permanent usage i had a potato there it is now i'm cooking faster than i need to eat so i get a surplus of food which is different than before when i was piecemeal one at a time never having surplus [Music] oh looks like we have an island that way i'm gonna be going through the storyline yes yes i will be [Music] all right for my spear i need one more ingot all right i'm out of the debris field a bit trying to head to this new island but yeah we're making headway now this is uh this is progress with the advanced food in the advanced water i'm not going to have to burn so much wood to keep the raft afloat and keep my diets met which means i can spend the resources building and and prepping for the story and all that [Music] oh feathers ah yes this gives me enough for a bow so that's going to be another thing i'm going to want to build soon as well so let's update that i think the current thing here is get a bow [Music] and expand the raft [Music] please make a bed i don't have anywhere to put it i made a bed and it got destroyed so i'm not i'm just gonna play it dangerous once i have the uh the foot the floor space for a bed i'll do it but uh i haven't had any close calls and i'm playing it really safe so it should be okay uh now we can get the other spear oh i put my rope away there two spears i always on hard mode definitely roll with two spears all the time i never uh never go down to one if i can help it now the potatoes and beets that i've been eating you can hold on to and plant them i just i'm not worried about that just yet so i've just been uh just been consuming them instead what's the benefits of the bed it allows you to respawn when you die uh provided that someone comes along to rescue me uh and i built a bed and the sharks ate it so i haven't built another one since a little salty about that stupid sharks eat my stuff but the the sharks that are out right now are um they're pretty wounded so it should be i should be able to kill them off uh relatively easily and uh resource gather everything that's on this island and now that i have the um now that i have the paddle i can't get stuck like i got before which is funny because normally when i roll up to an island i want to get stuck a little bit but like not so much that it can't move you know [Music] all right this ingot here is probably going to be invested in an axe the axe is um really an unnecessary tool because all it does is allow you cut down trees a little faster it doesn't give you more resources but once you're in the iron age and you're able to get iron tools it's kind of nice to be able to swing quicker the axe can't be used as a weapon though so it's it's not a replacement for a speed or anything like that but it is more durable which is nice all right axe is broke don't really need to eat anything else oh i am drifting away all right so let's start working on a bow and for that i need to put uh the seaweed that i've been finding into the smelter to make vinegar i'm sort of contemplating whether i want to anchor here or not i think i will [Music] so the bow costs two vine goo four rope and a bolt so i got the bolt now and i'm working on the vine goo here's one of two vine goo and there's another one [Music] and then four rope and then i'll be a shark slayer oh i also need to make the arrows so let's uh make a batch of arrows as well i like the metal arrows which will require uh another in uh metal ingot which i currently don't have that will be something to go together oh and i had a spare bolt so i miscalculated that a lot yeah let's at least get the i could always settle on stone arrows i suppose but i much prefer the metal ones the reason being is the bow has a limited amount of durability so you might as well fire the best possible projectiles out of it to get the most bang for your buck and that would be obviously the metal arrows [Music] oh no i have one more ore cool that will do i uh totally blind that so here's the bow very handy tool to be able to decimate these dinosaurs in the water so that's basically what a shark is right dinosaurs are older than trees aren't they i believe dinosaurs predate trees or uh sharks rather predate trees which is a weird thought [Music] so i while i wait for that to smell grab what the uh the island has to offer in the shallows [Music] hard more or hard mode it's supposed to say hard mode but if it's hard more uh i guess that's also true i fixed it thank you [Music] i am only partially literate all right i don't have a lot of planks left so i don't want to feed that [Music] oh here we come yeah these guys look ready to die and then rad the shark slayer it's gonna rip and tear until they're dead here we go we're doing it let me uh top up my water and then rip and tear them up until they're dead well you're dead already bye bye all right you get over here and you're dead too rock on [Music] i guess they were only one hit away so [Music] that wasn't that much of achievement but it still feels good man still feels good uh let's not waste any time uh throw this down quick and then start collecting iron and possibly scrap i'm not sure what my scrap looked at yeah let's also get some copper because i'm gonna want copper the one shot one kill yeah they were just very wounded from me continually stabbing them off the the raft so it wasn't that they were like it's not that the bow is like a one shot kill weapon it's just that they were super wounded from uh previous attacks probably obvious to me you all but just want to make it clear it's it's not a god to your weapon [Music] seaweed and metal oh and let's update the description um [Music] strip this island yep so seaweed allows you to make a lot of diving gear like flippers and oxygen tanks that double the amount of time that you can stay underwater so very very handy to have seaweed as well i also might i don't think i'm at the point yet just because my raft is small and i don't have space for it but i might want to consider getting more clay and sand for a second smelter eventually but not on this run that might be good for a future endeavor i'm trying to absolutely maximize the amount of ore that i can get before these sharks come back so yeah it's all about the loot every iron i get is more sharks that i can murder more arrows more spears more scrap hooks and this is definitely how to do it on uh on hard mode is try to milk it so that you only kill them off when you're on a brand new virgin island that hasn't been um stripped of resources murder all the sharks at once and then loot loot as fast as you can because you only get three minutes before they start to respawn and that's not a lot of time [Music] probably don't need more giant clams [Music] all right they're they're likely respawn now and waiting at my raft for me um let me do one more pass for scrap the clams are to make birds nests but there's um there's really not much of an advantage having more than two birds nests because the game maxes out at two seagulls so if you have three birds nests only two of them can ever be used at the same time and then i might be blanking on something but i don't i don't think that there's another way to use clam it's just bird's nests [Music] [Music] yeah this is a big yay for ocean pollution yeah all the plastic and metal that i'm getting thank god for polluters right [Music] all right i think we're good let me get back thank you for tuning in to raft which originally streamed live on twitch november 9th if you have any
