Can I Beat From The Depths ONLY Using CRAM Cannons? | FULL Playthrough | Adventure Mode Gameplay

- So for some this really wouldn't be much of a challenge, CRAM is an utter powerhouse in terms of sheer damage and cost to size efficiency. That being said I am utterly garbage with It, the weaknesses of the weapon are that It Is relatively easy to dodge, counter and outrange along with the long cooldowns and weight these add up to ruin my designs!
So now at last I am going to get better at this deceptively simple looking weapon! Time to destroy all with the brute force weapons of CRAM explosions, fragments and EMP!

Same!!!!!
agreed
Same here
i agree
Same. Have you thought of saving your adventure mode vehicles and using them in campaign modes?
Lathrix wanting to get better at the game: challenges himself to build only cram
Me wanting to get better at the game: *yelling at steam boilers in confusion*
When recording this video I spent over 3 hours making the steam propellers for the back of the end design with a proper on/off manual switch.. I still have no idea how It ended up working.
I think steam engines are just 90% magic and luck.
As those programmers would say; a fine example of “black magic”.
(I curse you with watching every lathrix video that comes out…)
*“skdkxqkk:939£|£|+~*]&:,&83,@:&”!*
BUHAHAHAHAHaaaaa……
mathemagical!
looking at the FTD wiki is… an experience
@@Lathland once you learn how they work, you might find it fun to build the weirdest steam engines the world has ever seen.
The FTD wiki is pretty heavily outdated to boot, which is a shame because this game really needs a reference to nail down what some of the numbers actually mean for optimization purposes.
Fun Fact: Lathland's initial build, the CRAM submarine, is really accurate to the historical M-class british submarine, at least in concept. A submarine equipped with a massive 305mm cannon.
There is also the French cruiser sub Surcouf.
I discovered those about 2 days before watching him use it. I was ecstatic
reminds me of french submarine sorcouf
Hey Lathrix, if you are interested, the awesome jet water skimmer at 35:10 was based on a real plane colloquially known at the Caspian Sea Monster, or more officially the Lun class erkanoplan. It was a Russian aircraft in the 1980s. Absolutely worth a google!
Oh interesting!
@@Lathlandone of my favorite things of all time
They are so cool!
Technically the Caspian Sea Monster was a one off prototype to prove the overall layout, and the Sun class were a smaller design that were actually produced (in a limited amount).
You missed a blue portal during that fight@@Lathland
lmao the luns were smaller than the sea monster, which was a one-off
The first iteration of this thing is basically an archerfish - I love it.
It does look like a archerfish and the USS Archerfish
It is very, VERY impressive how far you managed to get only using CRAM cannons. Good on you for even attempting this! CRAM-only FtD gets ridiculously hard (and tedious) the further along you go. You did get darn lucky you didn't run into a Flying Squirrel or SS plane squadron though, because those things are almost impossible to CRAM these days.
Other than that: masterfully done, frag CRAM FTW, and the way you dealt with every CRAM-resistant enemy was beautiful! 👍
Oh look, another FTD OG I've watched a good bit on :D
Cram&Ram is my fav combo. I dub it the "CRAMakazi" strat. Can't miss them with your cram if you're point blank. Sadly, this strat doesn't work well against flying enemies >:(
Good to see you here borderwise
Obviously this challenge made me think of you 😂But it’s a CRAM Tub, no Canoe!
@@LordDragox412 FYI it should be "CRAMakaze", as "kaze" is the transliteration of "Wind", the second half of [神風], meaning "Divine Wind" and transliterated in full as "kamikaze".
Hey Lath... how about a run where all weapons are allowed... but the propulsion is only sails?
OH NO. But OHHHHHH YES!
@@Springtrap11556I had to translate this from English to English, but I agree
love youtube for that must be going from British to American or vise versa lol
@@butter3413
Like laterally ie you can have up and down engines
Or just only sails meaning you could only be a boat
@@awaldo2848balloons aren’t propulsion so he could be a flying ship!
FTD is a series I wish to see continued in the future.
Is there any particular reason you’re only doing adventure mode btw? I would love to see a campaign mode (though I realize that takes a lot more time) like old times :>
Idk, he tried last year but stopped for some reason.
My best guess is that he’s too much of a perfectionist to settle for “good enough” for campaign builds; With so much time available to build and needed to play the campaign, he gets burned out.
Lathrix has done quite a lot of campaigns in the past but hasn't done any recently, like not in the past year at all. I've no doubt he will do another one at some point.
I believe he said that he just was having more fun in adventure mode than in campaign. Didn’t say he was ruling it out in the future, though.
he's tried them but found the difficulty to not be fun
There is a lot of micromanaging in the campaign, and unfortunately it does get a tad tedious after a while, in my opinion. I've come twice in trying to do the campaign but ended with giving up halfway, on both.
i'd really really love to see a "back from the dead" run where you revive the oldest ships you've ever built like the Salmonella and E.Coli to modern battle readiness, you can change only a few things, so weird old things you did like the Salmonella's underwater wood floatation wings and the full focus of missiles on the E.Coli
i know retrofitting is a lot more difficult, but you have done it to enemy ships before
And the Malal's Will!!!!!
@@thedyingmeme6 especially that one! best wood ship he's built. but no, he should be able to pick any ship he wants, retrofitting all of them is too much work for ships laid out to accommodate weapons that don't exist anymore
I wanna see the Medrengard again!
I only saw it vs Robbaz's ship and apparently it wasn't finished.
I would love to see that
I always love a battleship brawler design, my favorite still has to be the plague guard from that one campaign a few years ago
The Malal's Will?
plauge guard will forever live in my heart that ship was awsome
Hiding under the water and bobbing up to fire point-blank, before vanishing beneath the waves, is so insidious i love it
The thing about cram cannons is if they hit they do a lot of damage, the hard part is getting them to hit at 300m/s when the target is 1000m away and are moving at 40m/s
No to mention they are also subject to munitions defence on top of that ^^
Iirc every projectile can be hit by Munitions def. Even APS if it's slow and big enough
What an amazing run, loved the submarine function.
Would love to see some inspections of the more brutal battledamage your ship suffers in the fights. Not just a surface image like you tend to show, but a deeper dive into the damage. I'd like to see what armorings work and which are apparently death etc. Or just see impressive damage done that your ship survivedand near misses that might have been catastrophic if they just broke a few more blocks.
Also, that poor turtle...
the way it just got BODIED was a sight to behold.
About 15-20 minutes in, and I see wing turrets. I like wing turrets. Such an interesting way to get more forward firepower.
I love this challenge run! I love the idea of FtD challenge runs in general, really. There's one challenge I want to see you do more than any other with this game. A few years ago I think, you did a submarine run. I loved the idea of the sub run and did one myself, but more than that I LOVED the idea of a first-person battle bridge and copied the idea in my own runs multiple times, using pistons to raise the bridge to its combat position and wiring cameras around a periscope to use as monitors on the bridge. It's fantastic. It's also really difficult compared to 3rd person. I would love to see you do a first-person challenge run where your focus is on building an awesome bridge! I think it would shift the focus from pure combat to intelligence and information gathering.
I like this one.
Sounds interesting
Best suggestion.
I'll add my vote for this.
what about squid shaped submarine that grapples and drags the enemy underwater?
In one of his campaign playthrough he created this type of submarine-mine-brander. But i can't tell you when.
I think it's Building the Fleet #3 and #4
Your comment put a gap in the comment section.
nice a glitch or ur making a joke i dont understand?@@WildmanTrading
I've been wanting a CRAM based design for a long while. They're simply the most fun thing to watch for me. Everything about them is so dramatic.
Love the idea of CRAMs and every time I build one I get frustrated after it misses the first 20 shots and go back to advanced cannons thinking I'll make a 500mm one this time and not something that vomits forth a million shells like I usually make xD
It seems pretty hard to do CRAM only, especially if you're not allowing active defence. Excited to see how it goes!
I would love to see a "one size fits all" challenge. Essentially just one single gun allowed. You have to make a gun strong enough to take out heavy ships while fast enough to hit a flying squirrel. Seems plausible with a rapid fire laser or machine gun, but still sounds really tough.
Plasma might do the trick, too.
@@deusvult4084 I've been thinking about this quite a bit... I don't think lasers are a resolution whatsoever like I initially thought. The second a shield appears, run's over. That said, plasma and rail might work! Would seriously love to see this, though!
I can confirm that rails can indeed wreck flying squirrels. I haven't played the game in quite some time, but I remember them being one of my design targets for a railgun cruiser. Have to be stupid fast shells with good accuracy though. Need to hit them with a quickness.
From what I remember the railguns could accurately hit stationary ships at 20km, moving ships at 6 - 10km, depending on size and speed. Flying squirrels it had to be close at around 1km and less.
Some massive guns with heavy reload times makes a lot of sense if you can submerge between shots. Reload, aim on target, float topside and fire full broadside before sinking again, biding your time to strike from the depths once again.
"hey where'd that island come fro-"
*obliteration via high caliber broadside volley*
I was about to go to sleep but i can always CRAM a lathland video in😜👍
ITS CRAM TIME BABYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!! :D Glad to see you play From The Depths Lathrix!
Had to do a translation, but I agree
i love how in the beginning the front of the ship looked like a chestburster from alien and now i have a compulsion to play from the depths again. i always love your FTD series Lathrix keep it up my good man
FTD is indeed a series i wish to see continued!!! Freaking awesome video!
I love how the FTD soundtrack is either calming piano with an angelic choir or dubstep that you would put over a trailer for a Tom Cruise movie.
TRUE THOUGH
Have you ever usied the "Wire" Method of EMP protection? I have been testing with it recently to great sucess. (Thin lines of heavy armor running through the ship and around weapons, directly conducting all EMP Damage straight into isolated Surge protectors) Might be too strong for this kind of video and play though.
Its propably one of the best emp defense schemes. Mostly because ideal armor construction *Already* has faraday cage shaped HA for protection around vitals, thus it basically needs no modification. For airships they're pure HA so it doesnt even matter.
@@snowdrop9810 HA no longer acts like a surge protector.
Lathrix you should try using alloy in conjunction with lots of Heavy armour. This way you dont float too high & have basically equivalent protection as metal armour. (Metal is cheaper but less dense, alloy + Heavy armour is slightly more expensive but bulkier per volume because Heavy armour is god)
HEAT is going to have a good time
Heavy Armor is 12 times the cost of Metal and Light Alloy. I'd say that's a little more than just slightly more expensive lol
@@oliverlimb109 That's why you put beam slopes in the middle of your armor layers ^_^
@@Feraligono yes i know however the light alloy get deleted then you have the same problem
@@TrixterTheFemboy 5*
A joy as always to watch, been so engaged in custom battles lately I haven't even glanced at the adventure mode lol
"1 weapon of each type(or a mirrored pair)" would be fun to see too. I'd kind of like to see more defenses and a teleporter too.
Have you considered adding this ship to the workshop? Would be cool to compare the “big ships” from the various FTD UA-camrs.
Another glorious playthrough Lath!
Would love to see you experiment more with the wonky tech like warp drives and ring shields. Like a short range teleporting craft with a beam sword would be incredible.
First volley perfectly taking off the turtle-boat-bot's head and immediately killing it was hilarious.
You may have been better off if you always fired the first barrage manually before letting the AI do things. Otherwise it tends to miss since the AI will basically fire it the instant it gets within the accepted firing error.
You're from the depth series are why I started playing the game again after abandoning it.
Still can't build an aircraft to save my life but I have made a few working ships and subs.
This is hands down my favorite adventure mode video you've made! I love that many of the fights were close and we got to really appreciate the enemies that you were fighting.
I just love these kinds of videos, they're convenient and absolutely entertaining!
From the depths is a series I wish to see continued in the future 😄
To me it seems like you just make videos of whatever game you like. It's what I love about your channel. (:
YESS FROM THE DEPHTS ! Thank you so much from France, big fan here since the begining ! :D
More. I need more. I find the game way to complicated to learn in the short amount of free time I have. I play vicariously through you.
I am doing my part!
Suggestion/challenge, a weapon where you must face toward your enemy, no turrets or drones just facing towards your enemy in order to fire! Like the Swedish doorwedge tank!
We shall do our part!
Though I think that wouldn’t be a great challenge since it wouldn’t limit him that much and Im pretty sure frontsiders are meta already.
Called the Strv-103 for those who don't know
I know that adventure mode is more of your jam, but I would really love to see another campaign- is there any chance that you’ll do another one of those anytime soon?

I simply love your content and have been a fan for years. From the Depths will always be a series I wish to see continued far into the future.
From the depths is one of my favorite games that you play, thanks for the great longform content!
I would love to see you just do a video and dive a bit into engine/powerplant designs or gun designs or armor or even whatever, just to get some explanations and tips fro stuff in the game. Also not being a thing that needs to condenze a dozen? hpurs into an hour.
Now use only C-RAM
Man, it's been a while since I've last watched one of your videos, and I'm really glad that amidst many awful changes in my life, I can still come here and just immediately get back into it. You're an awesome guy and as someone who was around for your very first FtD series I'm really happy to see it's still going
33:50 is the literal coolest vehicle. I’ve been watching your vids for a decade especially from the depths and I’m blessed to see that
Got that bell icon, I was ready
I love watching this because it reminded me of my cram only ship. It had 6 tripple barrel crams and they fire one at a time. Its not effective by any means when it comes to lams but its fun to watch.
So its basically an Iowa class Battleship but X2??
That sounds AWESOME!!!
I love these long videos. It's a nice thing to have on in the background.
Man I love these! Never stop Lathrix!
Love to see from the depths
I'd love to see you do another hydrofoil whenever you do another one of these videos (for example, maybe during a torpedo only challenge) if it's possible.
The issue would be flying enemies- if he's restricted to just torpedoes then he wouldn't be able to hit them
Maybe a giant mobile base on hydrofoils with little drones? Or perhaps a ramming vehicle on hydrofoils? Or maybe both?
Noice, new from the depths video. I love these. I still can't wrap my head around all the technical stuff in from the depths.
crams are really fun, they sound so satisfying and the explosions are equally awesome. thanks for making these vidoes, love them all
Please do another long term FTD series :( I found your channel many moons ago watching the desert/land vehicle themed campaign
there’s a mod i’d recommend for a playthrough like this called the booster barrel mod. it costs 2k resources but doubles the speed of cram shells so the cost is justified. other than that i’m not sure about any other mods
Woooo thats what I have been waiting for! The cram cannon craft at the end both looked and sounded like a proper power house! It seems kinda dejavu, can't remember exactly in which adventure video of yours but the same thing happened at the end: you beat the most powerful craft up to that point, then its brother comes to take revenge. This was awesome to watch!
Awesome video as always lathrix. Loving these long videos

Thanks for making me want to replay some FTD! CRAMs are so fun. Big guns that make big booms.Will spend the holidays playing this game.
UA-cam recommended me this video, looked interesting and I definitely wasn't disappointed! Watched a few of your videos already now and am really looking forward to anything new!
Awesome video and congratulations on 400k subs!🎉🎉🎉
Please sir keep blessing us with videos of this game, I'm in love with your From the Depths videos !
I would be so hyped to see a playthrough where you do a run only using melee drones !
I absolutely live for these from the depths videos.
Those distraction missle/ballons you made halfway through are hilarious and i love them
I love this gane abd your style of idk of everything from commenting and playstyle to your taste of fames and so on keep the good stuff up!!
A vid about from the depths from you is the first vid ever in my watchlist and I cherish it and the nostalgia I get whenever I see it
Yes! I’ve wanted this for so long! CRAM is just the best weapon and it’s so fun watching something just fall to pieces when it gets hit!
Omg I have been wanting this video for ages, i cant wait
I love your videos! They keep me entertained for days on end.
From the depths is a serries I definiately want to see continued in the future
FINALLY!! I haven't watched this video yet but i'm so so very excited to see some cram cannons used!
That final fight reminded me of the story of the HMS HOOD. After facing off against the Bismarck in WW11 she was sunk but, as she was sinking and only one turret remained above water she fired her last defiant shot be fore going under.
I love this long form content UA-cam needs to account for this!
The music kicking in when you engaged the Megalodon was wonderful.
i would abseloutly love to see more FtD in the future. very pleasant to watch.
Crazy how soothing it is to watch shells slam into armour like this. Plus one sub!
I’ve been looking forward for a play through like this for a long time … I love cram and now I can watch lath using my favourite weapon!!
Hey lath, I just wanna say thank you so much for making videos, I’m usually always busy but whenever I get a break I love watching your videos, they clear my head and really calm me down and help me relax after a long day, keep up the good work ❤
Great video as always, From the depths is a series I wish to see continued in the future.
Lots of fun to watch, FTD is definitely a series I wish to see continued in the future. Also, I realize that this would probably not have worked very well (if at all), but it would have been neat (and in the spirit of the challenge) to try using airburst CRAM as a munition defense.
"Only cram cannons" Mad lad. I just got back into the game and I like watching you cuz I actually learn a lot.
Nice! Always love to see more FTD.
This was an absolutely awesome run! I'd love to see the series continued, and I've got a challenge run for you! A hovercraft with both maximum and minimum altitudes that are pretty restrictive. Have to make sure you have lots of redundancy for control while still keeping everything protected and dealing damage out.
From the depths is a series I wish to see continued in the future!. I have been waiting for you to do an adventure playthrough with cram cannons for aaaaages!! OMG its finally here! Im so happy! :D

The absolute execution at 8:40 was delicious, with the music and all
The fact that you've gone and 3 barreled crams shows just how insane you are.
I'm liking this new style of editing! You're improving! ^^
Love your FTD series, keep em coming
As usual, an epic video and quality entertainment. The last fights were just epic. Just still would love to see some of that sweet, sweet building so that I can have a vague idea where the enemies should better not hit you.
I have been waiting for this for so long.
Lathrix you have given me love for From the Depths and Terratech, I just wish I could play this game and do challenges like these, but i dont have enough brain power to understand almost anything in this game. Keep up the great content, love these full playthroughs as well.
I really love the design of your ship. It's shape definitively radiates it's brawling nature, socky, bulky, manacing!
the distraction sticks are hilarious, I love it
I think I have watched this video 3 or 4 times but I cannot know because everytime I do watch this I fall asleep on the very relaxing sound of CRAM cannons dismantling their enemies.
Yes lathrix back at it again with a movie can't wait to sit down and just have a great time. And also From the depths is a seres I love to see continued.
Your solid shot going in one end of an enemy and out the other was pretty funny
