nope
hey this is the black boat panda and welcome to Gold Rush the games this is
episode 1 we're checking out this new game that came out a little while ago
it's based on the Gold Rush TV series and frankly it looks really fun I've
seen a few other youtubers upload videos of it and I had to play it so let's go
ahead and get started here we've got controls here on the left so we're gonna
turn the engine on there we go and then release the handbrake we can go and we
can go alright how do I change the camera like that sweet okay so the first
thing we're gonna want to do is just grab some materials here to get started
which we can get right in here ooh this truck is hard to drive okay
alrighty there we go handbrake and engine off and out of the
truck alright so you can tell how to get started here we can just hit tab open
this up we've got a journal here we go tier 1 so we have to go to the bank rent
arnold's parcel claim go to the warehouse we're gonna pick some stuff up
here we can get this stuff first and then rent it's not a big deal hog pan no
pump hog pan sluice box core to hug pan mats and a bucket easy enough
alright hold shift to run here so here's all the stuff we can buy and there is a
bunch we want the hog pan and no pump want one of those kind of wish it would
default to one sluice box core one of those there we go we want to hog pan
Matt's add those and finally we want a bucket where are the buckets there they
are alright so grab a bucket then we can
check out up here at the register all right so that's gonna come to 155
dollars all right and now all that stuff is
going to be out here in the little pickup area so I'm going to grab that
stuff and toss it in the back of the pickup truck here all right in truck
good all right it was a bucket give me the mat give me thank you okay in the
mat and in the truck mat in the truck there we go what I'm
stuck oh there we go okay all right so one thing that wasn't
immediately clear watching other people play this game is that the controls are
very clunky like I don't know what other word to use to describe them they just
feel so not well done all right there we
go did I get everything yeah all right so
movement is clunky moving items around is clunky start the engine release the
parking brake now we got to go to the bank rent
Arnold's parcel the truck drives a little funny and entirely sure what's up
with the truck it's like it's slow to react come on come on there we go all
right yeah I'll press a key and then the truck reacts like a second or two later
that's what it feels like okay so Bank old Arnold parcel so these
are all the stats price per square foot provision of rent area expected amount
of gold low that's nice dirtiness of the parcel none that's good
large Creek water source state of Alaska owned all right so we're gonna rent this
boom it's $25,000 and we'll be paying that over time and now we can just head
there I get back in the truck start the engine release the parking
brake and we're gonna turn around right onto this sidewalk because why not and
we got to go this way I believe we can turn right in here
we're gonna take the back roads here we can get more machines from this place on
the right here later in the game and OH loading that's another thing the the
loading I've seen other people mention that though the game loads right in the
middle of Driving's not not super fun but the fun I'm looking forward to is in
mining the gold what is the truck doing I have no idea what it just did
oh we got some differential there we go turn that differential lock alright
go through this area here which is where you can sell magnetite which will come
into play later as well sliding around again oh boy
alright alright where am I facing come on camera there we go turn around
alright gotta get used to the handling of the truck here and around the bend
slow and steady alrighty there's the hard part now we
just got pulled in here we go right up to the tent area here somewhere right
about here ish it's fine I'm gonna actually pull in and then I'm gonna back
up alright good enough parking brake and gin and we're out okay now we gotta
carry all this stuff over here
and drop it off here run back for the rest so this is the sluice box we're
gonna place that down right here like so and I would put the sluice box thing
there okay so that's what our dirts gonna go in we're gonna put it right in
there and we're gonna pour water on it and then it's gonna run down here but we
need these mats these are gonna catch the gold place one there and there we go
grab the other one place the other one there nope place okay there ya little
little clunky pick it up and there's our trusty bucket okay and then we can get
another item out of the tent here couple items actually we're gonna need this
wash bin thing drop this off
and then we're also going to need of course the gold pan get get in there in
there thank you anything else in here we can grab no I
don't think so all right gold pan okay and we'll drop
this off here as well all right we can fill this up with water just like that
from the stream drop that off there and we're gonna be using this in a bit just
fill it up with water for now and drop that right there okay so we're gonna use
our shovel here we go and we're gonna shovel out this dirt here this darker
dirt this is the pay dirt the dirt with the gold in it
shovel it in here fill that up pour water over it that's gonna run back out
here and gold is going to be caught in these mats that's the plan anyway so
let's see how much is that that's 20% nice so five of those scoops it's at 40
it's 45 of those scoops and we've got it full three four and five should do it 95
but oh okay why not and then we grab bucket of water and
it's started now we're gonna need more water than that though so grab more all
right this is easy enough
up the hill character doesn't like to walk up hills I've noticed alright I
should do it yep it's that empty that's empty so we
filled these Matt's three percent so we want to get those to a hundred so we're
gonna be doing this for quite a while but when you have a lot of dirt over
here we can use right all this quite a bit or are they making a dent in it
right now but the fun stuff comes later this is the this the getting started
stuff it's the boring stuff right 96 all right grab some more water
more water should take I think three buckets let me double check yeah it's
gonna take three buckets three buckets to process what's in there that gets us
up to 7% all right yeah this is gonna take a while so don't look now but do
look at how much money we have I don't know if that's coincidence
or if the developers are just really hilarious all right so I just discovered
you can actually get tiny shovel fools if you're not careful so like right here
right now we're at 49 if I put that in we only go up to 54 so I was 5% so you
really got to get in there and get big scoops of dirt to fill it up faster so
here's a fun little bug I just discovered if you grab water and then
quickly look in that direction hold down the forward key sometimes you'll like
really speed up let me see if I can get it to do it it's pretty funny we try it
again here no bucket go that time I just dropped the bucket
hahaha how many was that at the last one that was last one I'm gonna try it again
we might get stuck on something I don't know now I'm just dropping the bucket
anyway I did this off-camera a couple of times it worked just fine but what
happened was I grabbed the bucket looked that way trying to move real quick as
soon as the bucket came back up it actually slingshot at me across this
area and way over there like just instantly I was over there so fun little
bug and it actually just happened again I didn't go quite as far that time
though I'm gonna see if I get it to do it again it seems you have to wait for
the bucket to start coming back up so we go here and then look oh there we go
look at that that's great so this seems to be the
easiest way to dig out this area here once you got this dug out you can just
kind of stand here dig right into the wall turn dump it dig dump super easy
you see if I can get it to that water thing here show you you can actually
kind of use this to your advantage a little bit and speed things up by aiming
when it works by aiming at the box sometimes you'll actually jump straight
to it and it kind of speeds things up a bit I can't seem to get it to work now
always seems to work best off camera right yeah all right was that enough
yeah that was enough back to work and on the topic of bugs I'm not sure this
qualifies but it's really annoying when you're down here in the hole and you're
trying to get out yeah you just kind of gets stuck right it's really hard to
walk out you have to kind of do these little hops I'll be down here and you
want to get out just kind of hop out that's just I don't know it's really
annoying I wish it was just a smooth transition so you could just walk right
out and not have to do that but yeah updates are coming steady so maybe
that'll get fixed and since I'm nitpicking already the water like you
have to get right up on it in order to use the bucket and I wish you didn't
have to how far away long look at that 74% we're 3/4 of the way there nice I've
been at this for like an hour but yeah so like I keep wanting to like
use the bucket there and I just drop it instead cuz it's the same key and yeah I
think it'd just be really nice to expand the interactable hitbox on this water
just a hair oh we're almost there
so close
it's gonna be enough it might be
oh so close to 100 if I put any more in there I'll be wasting it well I could do
it one scoop at a time I suppose right like if I do get in there thank you
one scoops that's 18% and then run some water through it it's not gonna be
enough to get us to 100 really a saving lag spike there all right well I'm not
gonna worry about it too much now we can move on to the next process so we're
gonna need a bucket of water okay I'm gonna set that down and we can grab a
mat grab the front one and we use it in the bucket it's gonna there we go and
that's gonna clean the mat off I don't can you do it again no you can't do it
again so used to be able to do it multiple
times but you can clean multiple mats in one bucket that I dunno if you don't
drop it on the ground there we go so now I've got the mats cleaned and we can use
the bucket now on the pan that's gonna pour some of our pay dirt into the pan
set that aside don't worry stuff doesn't spill out of the bucket then we grab our
pan and we use it in this little wash basin so what are the controls for this
again show control is that is that blink can I not show controls space hmm
interesting all right now I can show controls okay
so you have to shift first to go into the panning mode all right once you're
in the gold panning mode we can rotate forward back left and right with Wash D
Keys WASD and let's see now we got it okay so we can move this way move up and
down all right left and right click okay so
left click to go down swirl it around clean it up
get that dirt out there get the gold showing all right and now we can tilt
pour the water out I'm gonna bring it up a little bit now I don't want to try to
get the gold separated so we're gonna pour off some of those dirt chunks and
rocks or whatever they are all right so I'm gonna actually pour off a little bit
more here try not to lose the gold that is the goal here do not lose the gold
okay so then we go shift go in a gold picking mode and then we can pick them
up boom suck that up pick that up suck that up pick that up and how they
looking we got it all all right we got it all so now we can dump this all right
and we can exit panning mode with E and then basically just lather rinse repeat
pick up your bucket broke more pay dirt set your bucket down grab your pan go in
here we're gonna click to go down wash it off water sometimes turns brown
sometimes it doesn't depends on what it wants to do a little bit lower here
alright that looks clean clean we're good I think we're good off the water
all right we got some gold right up on that side so I'm gonna go this way
pour off some of that dirt
all right don't pour off the gold try to get the gold so he can see it and easily
get it out there we go I'd ought to do the trick grab that gold
simple enough making Bank here all right then get rid of that exit so I don't
know how many times you can pan the one bucket it looks like probably four so
we'll go again here clean that off
oh wow turn really dark that time a
little bit lower here we go bring it up pour off that water careful
not to let the gold go over the edge do the other way
all right that I'd be good
very simple process not too difficult at all
pretty grindy not gonna lie pretty grindy oh we got one left
get out of there get no get all right so looks like we got one more load of pay
dirt there yep buckets now empty and this last one we can do and we can see
how much gold we got from that at operation there
clean it up looks good
don't let the gold go over the edge the dirt chunks seem to flow a little faster
and the gold does so it's pretty easy to just kind of do that all right we can
get the the gold to stay in or get a little bit more of this dirt out of the
pan separate them up all right that ought to work
this is the last bit of gold we can get
and why can't I grab these ones well let me grab these ones back
what's going on
yeah I can't grab these ones maybe they're pyrite I don't know fool's gold
we have some fool's gold here okay I'm gonna assume that's the case cuz I
cannot seem to grab these at all yep and I can do about it pour it off okay so
our mats are empty and we've got 0.608 ounces of gold so we do that again we
should have a little bit more than one ounce of gold
I'm gonna check how long that took alright so judging by when I first
started recording that entire process took me about an hour
that was about an hour's worth of work that much dirt to fool max 0.608 ounces
so I guess I'm gonna keep at it for another hour
oh boy okay it's it's 5:30 in the morning for me by the way and I haven't
slept since yesterday fun times all right I'll be back
Oh a little bit more nitpicking and some divided advice here to the developers if
any of them ever end up watching this the ground texture under the dirt why
does it look like the ground texture up top like there's there's green down here
is legit Green down here like how was that green it's got no sunlight I mean
it's got something light now sure but it didn't have sunlight before I started
digging this out I don't know I'm just nitpicking but I really feel like there
should be some nice little texture changes from like a wall of dirt here
down to the floor you know just just nice little things like that I don't
know I've been at this for a while I'm getting tired holy cow that is the first
time I hit 100% on the box I only did five scoops like I always do but the
closest I've gotten so far was 99 and normally it's like anywhere from 93 to
96 that was the first time I filled the box completely in five scoops I am I am
astonished here I wonder if like some parts of the dirt
are better than others or if it's just the way I've been scooping I honestly
have no idea you know a second thought I'm pretty sure it's completely random
hmm so as in game night encroaches upon us here is a handy tip for anybody who
doesn't know about it press l and it turns on your head mounted flashlight
not a whole lot of light but you know it's something to work by when it's
really really dark all right I finally hit 100 again so cleaning the mats
getting all that gold off and trick number two but when it is really really
dark you don't have to work you can just run over here to the handy dandy camper
and use sleep till dawn look at that it's dawn ah alright so for some reason
we now have 0.48 7 ounces of gold I think that's the the license share or
whatever so we were renting a parcel so I guess point two ounces gold went to
the parcel owner or something I don't know anyway now we've got those cleaned
off we got our bucket full of juicy pay dirt here we can start panning again and
clean that off and so that was about quite a bit more work they give us
another 30 minutes or so maybe 40 45 even it's hard to say whoops didn't want
to do that nope oh boy I am I am having issues
hitting the wrong keys hitting the wrong keys alright we're good though we're
good look at that that's clean alright a little bit a little bit left there
alright we're good okay oh we got a gold nugget real close to
the edge there a couple of them don't let those fall off
get these dirt chunks out of here Oh almost lost that guy all right we can
fight grab those there grab that one grab that one there we go making
progress you know find us some big nuggets dump these off grab some more
dirt
keep wanting hit the wrong keys one thing that's a little confusing about
this game is like left click will be used for something like digging and
right click for like depositing dirt from your shovel but then you could also
use the e key to deposit dirt into the sluice box and picking stuff up is the e
key but dropping them is also the e key and it just seems like a mess of like
what keys do what you know I feel like they could kind of consolidate some of
these things like if they made the e key also dig dirt with the shovel or
left-click is what normally picks things up stuff like that
I could make a big difference for the game just help polish it let's grab
these pieces gimme a little tiny ones made big ones I get that one yes I can
oh we've almost got an ounce of gold look at that look at that I might be
able to hit an ounce at this bucket just might be able to clean that off
a little bit higher there a little bit lower all right careful don't want to
lose the gold so I think the idea is that the gold gets trapped in these
riffles mostly although I'm not entirely sure how well that works and they kind
of do they kind of don't we got two sides got a smooth side and like a ridge
side you know I don't know can I get that I get that oh look at that you're
lucky I've never seen anything like that it's the biggest gold nugget I've seen
in 40 years of my experience as a miner I hope it's not just beginner's luck and
you'll use it wisely to stop shoveling and start using proper machines check
out what you need to run the mobile wash plant and don't forget about an
excavator even the smaller one should be enough for you okay nice nice nice oh
wow that is a big nugget indeed that puts us at almost 40 ounces of gold and
we still have a little bit left to process here I think these are okay we
got one one piece of pie right there a little bit of pyrite get out of here
dump that get out of here yeah we've got one more one more bucketful I think
let's see it's the bucket empty bucket is empty so this is the last of the gold
from the mats it's a lot of muddy water get out of here
they're clean now it's clean all right get those dirt chunks out of
here
don't wanna lose that gold so tilt it this way
get the gold trapped in the ridges maybe then tilt it this way and the dirt
should roll off yeah I know that's not working great like the physics are a
little messed up so you can see sometimes they kind of just stop like
that yeah that makes the gold pan a little tricky to use and then the
physics all kind of update when you do something I go grab a piece of gold and
suddenly all the stuff moves alright so that puts us over 40 ounces look at that
nice very nice indeed alright sweet so now we can sell that
gold off and start working with some nicer machines so I don't have to keep
doing this holy cow that was a grind alright but we're gonna save that for
the next episode because this one has run on long enough so thanks for
watching this is the black boat panda if you like this video please click that
like button subscribe if you haven't done so already I'll see you in the next
video thanks for watching bye
