Gus Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Just wanted to let you guys know that I am starting a Lets Play feature of Xenonauts. If you actually know what you are doing you might not actually want to watch it, cuz I have a terrible mic voice. The purpose of it is to grant a tutorial to newer players. However, it's my hope that with my addition to the other Lets Plays I can contribute to development by promoting Xenonauts. Thanks:cool: You can definitely tell that its my first uploaded video lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus Posted July 6, 2012 Author Share Posted July 6, 2012 Episode 2 is coming up. This one might interest the veterans more because I am actually fighting some more serious enemies. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raidsoft Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 (edited) Well first of all you should tweak your audio settings, some of the game audio was quite loud compared to you (it's important that you do test videos first and double check before you do the real recording) and it's better that the game is a bit too low then it being a bit too loud, nothing is more obnoxious then having to struggle to hear what you are saying. Another thing you should probably point out now and then if you run into bugs/issues is just to mention again that the game is still under development and it's expected that there are going to be bugs etc. (of course we know that but a random person stumbling upon the video might not) Your commentary is pretty good for being very new to making LP's and you should keep it up! Something you should consider is doing a bit of editing, sure it adds a bit more work but it will show through as well, for example the long loading screens you can just cut out, there's plenty of free software you can use to do this but it might be some learning for you but this will definitely be useful for the future anyway so if you are going to be at least semi-serious about making videos it's well worth it. edit: noticed that the volume in ep2 is much better compared to ep1 Edited July 6, 2012 by raidsoft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus Posted July 7, 2012 Author Share Posted July 7, 2012 Hey guys I need your help. I cant continue recording episodes because I have encountered a pretty brutal bug. In my soldiers screen I can only see 4 soldiers inside my Chinook that I can select, Even though it also reads as being full. I cant assign people from my personnel screen and when I check my aircraft->dropship screen I see the 4 inside the ship. But there are a couple of portraits on the bottom. When I click on them it causes a crash. Does anyone have a workaround for this? It would stink to stop the lets play after only 3 episodes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 Figured out a workaround. Sell the dropship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 (edited) Hey Guys- I was hoping for a word of advice. With the new builds coming out should I do a Lets Play for every build? Wait until Beta? Delete my old builds as I go? Seems slightly repetitive but when I think about it- my main goal is to attract more ppl to Xenonauts, and I'll be playing each new build anyway. What do you think? The only thing I worry about is the number of bugs. Since Chris is focused on features and not fixing it may not be the best time for a lets play, or showing it to new ppl. It was pretty much save game bugs that finished my old Lets play. Edited August 1, 2012 by Gus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raidsoft Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I'd say use your judgement but every build is probably too much, once there is significant progress enough that it's clearly different and stable enough to play then I'd say go for it. That's my thoughts at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sebly Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I don't think he's doing it anymore by the looks of his channel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XenoMask Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 You should probably wait till beta since otherwise this will be very short let's play as only three alien species are in and research only goes up to lasers/wolf armor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorlom Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I don't think he's doing it anymore by the looks of his channel.Judging by this thread he decided to wait until the beta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
