Question about recent updates to Deliver us Mars

I was just wondering, have there been any updates to how the character models look during cut scenes? They looked so bad, that they took me out of the experience. I was playing a few weeks after the game released.

How to make this jump in Tombaugh?

Hi guys! I'm on my first playthrough and I've been loving the game so far. However the problem is that I've been trying to make this jump for like half an hour now and I just cannot make it no matter how many tutorials I watch or read or how hard I press the sprint button. I thought you guys might know a way to help me forward. I'm on PS4 if that matters

I've played through DUTM 4 times, and I'm on my second playthrough of DUM

What other games would you recommend that are similar. Story driven, relatively short, and digestible in short segments. I'm a dad of 3, so I don't have hours to play at a time.

Should I wait until I have a PS5 to play it or should I just play on PS4 already?

It's a PS5 game with a PS4 version or this is PS4 game enhanced for PS5?

I can play original versions despite the existence of an enhanced version, but I'm not a big fan of downgrades (console wise of course).

Thanks!

Finished deliver us mars

Loved the game, loved the story, but despite finding Kathy, Claire and Sarah a little annoying at times, their plight and behavior were completely understandable.

Isaac on the other hand is nothing but a weak and selfish man. I have no respect for him in any manner. He literally couldn't give a crap about his elder daughter. He constantly stood aside and let Rosa and MacArthur destroy each other and all their resources. Moreover, rather than spending all that energy changing the Martian environment to sustain life, they could've used the same tech to prolong life on earth. The man had no conviction or loyalty.

He abandoned Earth and his daughters after using countless resources from the earth and its people to fulfill his dream and essentially condemning everyone there. Then he abandoned and killed his friends. Then when his daughter and Sarah were leaving with the Arks to save Earth, he abandoned the very people he took under his wing and leaded. He couldn't even go down with the ship he created and set sail to. If I were Kathy, I would see him as nothing but a sniveling coward.

ASE?

In DutM my understanding is that Rolf repairs Rosa's damaged ASE, which becomes your companion for the game. The ASE is then rescued by Claire when she recovers Rolf's body and saves Sarah. It isn't taken on any of the arks.

In DuM chapter 7 when you "follow an old friend", is that friend supposed to be Rosa or her ASE? My feel from playing is that the ASE you follow is Rosa's, but how can it be an old friend as there's no way it can be the one from the first game, I conclude she must have got a new one.

A silly question but one I've been pondering. I'd appreciate hearing what other players think.

PS5 Crashes

Just started this game on PS5 (PS5 Version) and it keeps crashing at the start when I’m making my way through the base to get to the rocket launch. Really unfortunate as I was really looking forward to playing this, seems like a gem of a game :(

Why is there confusion about the protagonist’s identity?

I just finished the game, thoroughly enjoyed it! Amazing atmosphere and beautiful soundtrack. A must play for any sci-fi fan who enjoys puzzle based gameplay.

Upon reading various comments and threads on the game, I’ve noticed a lot of people thought they were playing as Claire throughout the game and didn’t realize until very late that the player is Rolf.

I just don’t understand how they ever got to Claire being the protagonist. It’s clearly stated she remained on Earth and is communicating to the player (Rolf) through comms the entire mission. Were they just not paying attention or were there some red herrings that I missed?

Having said that I played with subtitles on so that may have spelled things out a little better for me.

I only want to ask how you save in this game...?

That's all; thank you in advance.

Buggy

I just played the game (with latest update) in Playstation 5 in performance mode and it was so buggy with many frames drop. I played about 1h and delete the game. Did you experience the same issues as I ?

Where is Kathy in DUTM?

So, I haven’t played Deliver us Mars yet but I have seen from the trailer and synopsis that you play as Kathy, who has been training with the WSA and is sent up to Mars at the beginning of the sequel.

This confused me as I’m positive we’re told multiple times that before the events of the first game Issac sent for Kathy to be brought up to the Moon to him. He even stabs Sarah so that he can get the Helium back to the Ark that Kathy is on before the Arks abandon the moon.

Looking this up on the game’s Wiki, it states: “Motivated to create a better world, Issac left Earth with ARK Vita (one of the three ships that can help create a sustainable space colony). Isaac hoped to bring Kathy and Claire, but Claire disagreed with Isaac's decision. Because Kathy was a young child at the time, Isaac made the decision for her. Unfortunately, on the day when Isaac took Ark Vita into space, Kathy was recovered by Claire and couldn't join Isaac. Because the launching sequence is automatic, Isaac had no choice but to leave his daughter behind as Vita left Earth for good.”

This reads as though Kathy never left earth? But we see that she does? We see logs about her altered growth rate in space and find her drawings in the moon base. And if she did leave earth and live on the moon, how does she get back to earth to train with the WSA?

Am I missing something because I’ve not played DUMars? Or is this a retcon/plot hole (I’ve read there are a lot of plot holes and it’s why I haven’t bothered buying the game)?

Edit: So I’ve now seen the prologue and in the museum an exhibit explains that Claire went to the moon and retrieved Rolf’s body and found Sarah. It then simply says Issac took the last Ark and escaped, to which Kathy responds it’s the last time she saw him so I’m guessing that’s what is depicted in the earlier cutscene where Claire grabs Kathy on the bridge after she falls.

But isn’t it established that that is a year or so after Rolf reestablishes connection? What was Issac doing during that time? Where was he when you’re playing as Rolf, how do we not run in to him (because he’s still on the moon base when he attempts to steal Kathy right?)

DUTM PS5 update 1.000.011 finally available to EU region

I'm proud to let you know that the latest version for PS5 Deliver Us The Moon was just made available today to the EU region, after several emails sent to Wired Productions support and Playstation support by yours truly.

This update was supposed to release on July 2022 but was somehow stuck in the system for the EU region.

It was advertised to bring proper vibration support and other fixes (see Twitter post https://twitter.com/DeliverTheMoon/status/1550156193192108034 )

I can't wait to replay the game in glorious 60 fps with vibrations. Thanks Wired Productions for keeping support for your past productions.

Issues with Ayala - Deliver Us Mars

Some kind of control over Ayala's default follow distance or positioning would be incredibly helpful. Her current default position seems to be whatever direction I'm facing, directly in front of me. Trying to make jumps often involves either manually moving her as far from Kate as possible and going for the jump before she can return or trying to push past Ayala and hoping for the best.

EDIT: Alternatively, the ability to headbutt Ayala to get some distance would be satisfying.

EDIT: Ayala makes this game harder and harder to enjoy the more I play it. I think I spend about half my time manually moving Ayala so I can get to things, only to have her come zipping back to hover directly in front of me. This seems like it would be something very easy to fix.

Extremely disappointed with the game

Having absolutely adored the first game in this series deliver us the moon I was very excited to play this game when I found out that it was going to be released. But having purchased it on day 1 I played it and there was a multitude of bugs and glitches I thought it would be ok with a patch but after the second patch and mind you both patches were absolutely huge so that goes to show the amount of issues. I installed it again a couple days ago and thought I would give it another go and I am just as disappointed as I was the first time I played it. The game is an absolute joke the little things that are wrong with the game all add up to be an absolute terrible game. Nothing from what I can see has been fixed in the 2 patches since release. I don't know if the Devs read these Reddit posts but they need to know that you had a really good thing in the moon game and they really dropped the ball with this one. Yet again we have been given a sub standard product for our money I don't understand why they and other games developers keep releasing terrible buggy games

Deliver Us Mars - Stupid Pills taken all around (spoilers)

I was enjoying the story well enough, there was some front loaded silliness but I could ignore that, then towards the end it got offensively stupid?

'We need to send the arks back to earth'... no.
You don't.

Unless the supertech in the arks is made of unobtanium and the colonists consumed the entire supply available in the solar system? What you need on earth is the design files and software. With the later in the story reveal of Vita having the bioprinter and a genetic database? You need those files transmitted back to earth too. Earth can rebuild them just fine as long as they have the schematics (and the schematics to make the tools to produce those etc.)

Why would you assume the Arks can even fly again after landing on Mars?
Or that flight systems wouldn't be broken down for colony materials; they weren't but why would you assume that, unless Earth has some schematics recovered from the Moon?

I feel the story could have done with some editing:

  • We left almost all our cryopods in orbit!

Why would you not bring them down to the colony in case something goes wrong? Something like a famine for example? Colony could go down to a skeleton crew to maintain the greenhouses and water and pause expansion with everyone else in cryo until the greenhouses have recovered?

  • We have a literal quarry but we're building outpost structures out of materials that are wearing away in the sandstorms.

Build underground OR use the rock to build a sacrificial layer around non-transparent sections of your structure. These people are geniuses but never bothered looking at how people live in inhospitable deserts?

  • We get our oxygen from one system that covers the whole colony...

A critical threat to life system? Without a duplicate system or a fully redundant backup system?
No. Just No. That there is only one magical one, I can buy that if you also establish everywhere has backup traditional systems.

  • And of course the standard trope: we turned off the oxygen!

Yeah they have more then enough oxygen available in the air to retake control of the Oxygen system? Wait no they're all magically dying almost instantly, but you've not mixed poison you had on hand into the air, or flushed the air with outside air etc.?

  • Dome people are running low on resources but they're making it work!

We did leave just soooo many corpses (to weirdly not rot in 2 years even though it wasn't frozen), that would have been a fantastic fertilizer for the dome plants OR complex chemical components for the bio-printer to use, but we're struggling along.

  • The DOME! It's panels seemingly aren't degrading, why was the other construction dying?

Anyone else feel this game could have done with a few more passes during the editing stage?

Issac Johanson- Was he that bad? P.S: I haven't played Deliver Us The Moon. Directly started playing the sequel.

I really liked the character of Issac Johanson. He was a caring father and doted on Kathy. He truly cared about her and regretted not taking her with him. I believe he also loved Claire but she and him had differing opinions that led to a rift between them. He wanted Kathy to have a better life and would have given that to her on Mars. The colony seemed to be doing fine. But I won't deny he made mistakes. He wanted to do the right thing but got sidetracked. Issac was a genius scientist with the potential to save Earth and that is where I get a little lost. Why do people dislike him? Was he really a tyrant? If so, what did he do to gain that reputation?

Where is ALEX?

So, this may be getting off into the weeds, but I thought that only the ASE that recorded a hologram could play it back, but the Astronaut picks up the ASE in Rosa's office, so I think it's Rosa's. But, there a lot of holograms that happen after that ASE is disabled. In fact it feels like most of them are of Sarah and her ASE is ALEX. So, the holograms are the weakest part of the game, in my opinion. They feel like an afterthought, and the rendering seems like something that was a place holder in the game and then they ran out of time or money and couldn't properly animate them. So, I guess I shouldn't worry about it, but it does make me wonder what happened to ALEX after the end of the game? Perhaps it made it back to the moon base and parked itself in Rosa's office?

Did anyone else notice the reflection?

If you look closely at the cover there seems to be a man and woman in the buff in the reflection of the astronauts visor. Am I the only one who noticed?

Artbook and Soundtrack on Wired Rewards

So, I just found that the publisher has a page with just the artbook and the soundtrack.

https://shop.wiredproductions.com/products/deliver-us-the-moon-deluxe-edition-wired-rewards?variant=31962110361713

Stupid question alert : If I buy it, I guess I will get a code to download the digital artbook and soundtrack, right ? xD I won't get a physical copy of the game (the price is too cheap for a physical release tho').

Can’t finish the game

I’m at the part of the game where ark labos has crash landed and Im trying to climb the tunnel when you first enter the station but it’s not mantling the top where you’re meant to climb through, I’ve watched several tutorials and what they are doing just doesn’t work for me. Is there any way to fix this ?
