I think you nailed the analysis of their collapse. Morale broke. Yeah it's a game but if the players do not want to play after a kind of un-fun session they will not fight as hard to win the battle. Just how it rolls. They sure gave it their all though. Their navy was very impressive

when season 2 was around the corner, we went into this thinking it would be season 1, casual pvp witha decent amount of scripting, and a bit of back and forth.... how ever, after getting our asses handed to us constantly, and well.... constant defeats, moral tanked when we found out how the ke built their ships for more pvp focus, which made them even harder to kill, trying to retrofit ships earlier in the war while also making sure the factions didnt fall apart from moral.... it was not fun... our fleet admiral was on the verge of breaking a lot but stayed till the end, i tried we all tried, but once moral was out the window..... gl trying to fix what is broken, the constant losses, loosing one of the most well known ships in our navy... it was to much for the cdf high command to bare, we fought hard.... but i feel like we didnt fight hard enough and it cost us our lives, and our home. hopefully the riders can turn this war around.

The human cost of a war shouldnt be understated. Material can be replaced but people that die stay down. People staying down in this comparison would be people stopping because they werent having fun. Ut sounds like they failed to communicate properly so simply couldnt put up a coordinated fight. It worked for them in the 1st season because they dident have to communicate with people outside of their group. But when they did have to do that it dident work out. Ontop of that they had the bad luck of having their first joint battle be a catastrophe. The alliance was over before it started :/

@GetBrocked

2 жыл бұрын

yeah... it's a bit of a bummer.

An unhappy military alliance does more harm than good. Theoretically, even if both sides hate each other, 2+2 is still 4. But practically speaking, that is not how it turns out. In this kind of situation, 2+2 equals 3 if you are lucky, or as low as 1.5 if you are not. It does weird things to people's heads and expectations, in situations where people should perform and push until they die if needed, they get soft and pull back. 'We are in an alliance after all, its not like we are fighting alone', but there is nothing real to back up that preconceived notion and only regret in the aftermath. Its fascinating to see when this happens, but its a good lesson. If you are going to have allies, dedicate yourself to working together. Fleet lost day one? Damn bro that sucks, we can send some people over to help rebuild(assuming such was allowed). Frontline bogged down? Time to develop a plan to hit something in the enemies backfield. From my complete outsiders perspective, this sounds like the CDF and Riders never got over their misgivings about the other. In this kind of situation, becoming friends could be acceptable. Trade agreements, docksharing, ect. But no further than that. To quote a certain man from Battletech... "Wars are not won on the field of combat. Battles are, but those are only ever part of the story. To win a war you need to break the enemy's resolve, to force him to accept defeat. Otherwise the war will never end. Too many conflicts persist because battles are won but the hearts and minds of the people are not. Winning involves every level of society, from the generals and politicians to the shop girls and street cleaners. The infantryman with his rifle may be the blunt weapon used to win this fight, but he is neither the instigator nor the concluder." In reality, the war never ended between the Riders and the CDF. Both sides still felt misgivings. The CDF, that they could have done better and could still go further. The Riders, that they had the momentum and needed to just take a few more steps. This is made with only this video as my knowledge base for this whole thing, though. I could be wrong or missing critical information, but this whole thing was fun to write so, hey, why not?

"in situations where people should perform and push until they die if needed, they get soft and pull back." This happens in reality too, because people don't want to die, regardless of alliances, and a destroyed ship has no value compared to a damaged one that pulls back and can enter the fight again later.

I have never heard someone fit the phrase "Vibe check" into a mostly serious play-by-play of a battle and make it sound so natural.

pretty good take on the senario. Its still an shame KE dominated so hard people were starting to lose hope and wanted to leave the series. We should have seen that coming earlier and try to change things around. Not my proudest moment in outlands but CDF fought valiently and put down there mark. They were always considered the biggest tread even though RR had a battleship.

What would be even better would be an analysis of why they fell…you mention moral loss, but is that really it? I feel like the desire to not offend people is sort of obscuring an open discussion of what really happened. from a viewers perspective, it’s not clear at all why the KE just crush all with no losses…are they better pilots, superior ship design, better tactics?

With these new materials to our disposal we got requests back to back to scrap unwanted and un-usable ships, thanks to this we built up our fleet with the scrap and junk from the servers biggest and most hated faction, because for their tech in our ships every faction allied with us joined us and started producing our ships and sending them out. At first we raided their asteroid base and got their attention, with the small fleet already there we had them concentrating on our droned ships, Later that same hour our entire faction alliance got their and took them down and were still active enough to be able to fully raid and get them off the face of the server just because they couldn't compete with out technology and numbers.

Based on what you have described, the reason why the CDF was destroyed all goes back to a lack of coordination with the Riders. More communication between the two factions and better coordination would have helped out with the ensuing attack by the KE. However, because they didn’t communicate much, the end result was one major defeat, which resulted in a general collapse of the CDF morale, bringing about more defeats until it was an absolute defeat. In this situation, there’s very little that could be done outside of changing leadership and joining the Riders.

Everyone below the old CDF players did not have enough experience to take over and would be short of pilots to man the ships and the old staff were unable to keep fighting due to well real life becoming a factor again after the lock downs ended.

5:40 I recommend making this more transparent because it really hurt my eyes

I think another factor was that the CDF was anticipating a second war with the Riders after dealing with the KE. Remember that in the early phase of the KE invasion the CDF kept a few squadrons bordering Rider territory far from the front line. No doubt those squadrons could have played a decisive role had they been committed to the front, but by the time they were finally deployed it was too late to make a difference. The CDF got distracted preparing for the next war instead of focusing on winning the one they were currently engaged in and it cost them everything.

potentially; they were also fearful of a 1st fleet invasion. A big "thing" was that the KE did really poorly in our practice runs so a lot of factions expected a stomp

There are only so many squadrons that can be used to attack, and plus yes, the battleship we tried to create and our extensive capital production was more in preparing for first fleet, it didn't take resources away from the front line, the Khans were just more skilled.

One of them should've used my juggernaut battleship design (which is on my workshop page) It has a 300G gravity cannon that can tear an unshielded ship in half with one shot Ridiculously powerful shields (darkstar bubble shield and kinetic barriers with cythons shields) It's porcupined with beam laser turrets (I think 40 in total) 2 spinal mount big Bertha cannons Projector based auto repair system (requires Kodiak strut welder mod) nuclear bomb launcher (welds a thermonuclear warhead with a battery and mass block to be fired from the gravity cannon) all wrapped in neutronium armor plating that is 7 blocks thick at its weakest point (can be subbed with heavy armor if you don't have modded armor blocks) This thing is so big that it requires 5 projectors to build in one piece (or build the 5 sections and merge block them together) On the server I used to play on, this thing survived an onslaught from the entire server, including 2 OP admin ships that were intended to make players rage quit In that epic battle, it sustained massive damage, it had an entire engine nacelle missing (half the reactor power and propulsion gone) and had its entire engineering section destroyed (crippling the auto repair system) but it still survived against a server of 20 players It was even more powerful with the modular laser system (where you can pipe lasers together to make a death star) that thing could burn a hole through itself in about 5 seconds with the original design

I don't want to criticize the now defunt CDF, but as a viewer it struck me that they didn't look as commited to defeat the Khans at the start. At least from the outside view that is how it looked. Later whe the Khans started to punch them they reacted but then it was more like triying to plug holes in the hull of a sinking ship with the finger.

@getbrocked Tell me how interested would you be in creating a larger universe. I'm in the works of creating a new gaming community in se. We plan to do things similar to your community here. What if we sort of merged our two universes between all our servers? Where players could jump their ships from your planets to ours. Like visiting a distant galaxy or reaching the other side of tgis galaxy. Its already possible to jump ships between with select mods. Overall it gives us all something greater and more unique in the space engineers community as a whole. I think it could be a great adventure that gives more players more things to explore and a wider range of dynamics.

@@GetBrocked it would take lots of preplanning and we would all have to have the same synced mods between all the servers. My biggest concern is various player ruleset formats between each solar system in the wide universe. I'm sure a pop up after jumping would solve it. Otherwise rule breakers get slapped with a thicc bounty encouraging rp. Several ways we can organically solve issues. Its definitely of a large undertaking as is anything new and untried. Ive been around since 2013 off and on and I want see se to be something grander. Maybe a like mini space mmo as no other game gets it right like se. My end goal or dream is to have dozens of server/solar systems/communites to form a se version of single shard making a pseudo full galaxy. Complete with a lore map graph like in star wars between trade routes and territory sectors. Although I admit the practically aspect of linking so many communites is unknown or if even truly possible. I'm probably going to need a team of modders to custom work on coding if the current mod cannot handle it... If you like, we can do some exchanges over discord? I would be happy to hear your input and general mp host experience over this.

@@geronimo5537 there's already ways to seamlessly meld multiple shards. Some MP server do it to increase the world size. My big issue wasn't the feasibility.

@@GetBrocked ah yes, the melding process is something that requires a more deeper discussion than one I can provide here. I do see the concern. Though I don't see issues if we both remain flexible to achieve the larger overall goal. That is building a long string of planets/solar systems any player can visit within one universe that has multiple listed servers as entryway into it. Each with their own community, story, and background unique to them and their own players. For us our community, Universe42, is in the fledgling phase. There is nothing publically posted for now. We have the network and hardware side complete for two servers. One in the US and the other in EU. We are now finishing the user interaction side of things such as discord and services for players. Our custom se planet is ready it has been in developement for sometime. Ideally we should be running in the next month or so. We still need to build our community's invading alien protagonist crafts, as just one example of work remaining. Once we are fully operational we plan to host faction based war, pvp, and pve events. I originally intended to wait longer before contacting other communites about this idea. But I really enjoyed your video and overall server gameplay. Long term I see Universe42 following similar lines as your community gameplay is here.

I have no clue on what this is (I'll have to watch more content) BUT I've been in the same position before, I had a few guys under me but I had a bunch of people over me, the people over me just lost motivation as what they thought was good turned out it never was good but it worked out fine, This caused the top lead to just not play or just not care enough, I couldn't do much but I keep trying to give a fight with the people under me, And I feel for the guys, they were relatively new and felt left behind, I used those fights to show them how to go at it and used random tactics along with those that kept playing, we lost but we gave one hell of a fight and made it hard for everyone.

I bet the Space Force is taking notes.

speed is life! destroyers move faster giving them the upper hand.

How about a small near stationary station shaped like a short carrot that can be extended that has a large gun and some missiles on it AND a shield that can rotate all around the station that has no machinery in it so its easy to repairr to fight against mainly rockets? the Extending part of the station would have a railgun on it that aims with the mouse and can be retracted fully into the station. in a one on one fight it would do very well because having a shield that only covers ONE side of the station that can be rotated left and right around it would cost less to do and could potentially do very well. Rockets would be sent out on top of the station and would home in on the enemy

How does this work? from my old days playing space engineers, once you get an industry going you can print out several capital ships a day, and you can always hyperjump to a new area to get more resources. How do they run out of ships? is the server resource limited? not allowed to mine resources?

we use a D&D/RTS style turn based system. The CDF owned 1 shipyard, and several trade stations. It would put out 2 build turns per turn. A cruiser is 6 turns A destroyer is 1. That being said, they never actually ran out of ships. They ran out of ground to give. And died with a reserve that still made it the 2nd largest navy.

They build ships based on a set of rules in creative. They are only allowed to "make" a certain amount based on how many tiles they own. The don't make all this stuff in survival and battle it out like you'd expect. They design and build the ships according to rules, and move them around in turns on a grand map, and then when two enemy fleets meet they paste each armada in. Ships are "destroyed" according to the rules of the grand strategy map. This is more like a DnD series than traditional space engineers gameplay. They are just trying to distill the best bits of Space Engineers and sideline all the more boring stuff.
