you. are. awesome! you know the "people are awesome" videos on youtube and stuff? reading this feels like watching those videos
Somewhere between cobalt and meteorite? I was fishing for some insider knowledge on materials ... what'd they say... 360 types of weapon? 10 per tier? 36 types of craftable material?
Sorry, yes, I was referring to the melee weapons I presume that's before all the random variations you can find... but maybe my number crunching gives an indication on the number of base materials in the game...
I see it as 360 weapons, so 360 / (#of races(7) * speculated # of different types of melee weapons(hammer, sword, dagger, spear,...etc)[6(any ideas on what this number will actually be?)]) so base number of materials to be about 9....(360/(42)) as I assume that each race will have its own craft able style and that the others will need to learn these from blueprints but these wont be of a different "tier" per say.
You'll just need to get the blueprints from a NPC of that race, then you'll be able to craft said item. The blueprints that are sold may depend on the 'level' of the planet or if you have access to previous blueprints. It's already stated that there will be tiers for armor/weapons. Iron will be weaker than Steel etc. Not to forget about randomly generated armor/weapons though, they could prove to break those rules.
Ok don't get me wrong here but, back in the Terraria days, I got so excited every time I forged or made a new weapon! But 360 DIFFERENT weapons! Dude, you sure know how to make me happy! The one screenshot you just posted looks great too! Keep the good work mate, and get some rest, you deserve it!
So many weapons to choose from. I hope that they have some way to display weapons and armor too. I know Terraria had manequins to put your armor on, but It would be cool to be able to display old sets of armor and weapons in your base.
So are the weapons going to be procedurally generated also or are there only 360? 360 is quite a bit, I'm not complaining, just want to understand.
Was simply stating this in another way to avoid people from having a fit over terminology. Either way a specific race wont start out with some of these weapons and will have to learn them through blueprints. That being said the point of my post was simply to shed light that I interpreted the 360 melee weapons to mean that you will only have 9 different ore types or so to craft from rather than the 36 of the person I quoted.
There will be tiers and randomly generated ones too (probably following specific variables). The 360 weapons mentioned here are only the ore tiered melee weapons. So there's plenty more. Understandable was only trying to add to your previous statement.
so we can dye weapons, armor, blocks... and have random and craftable armor and weapons... I'll play this game for infinity... and beyond!
Any news on when we will be able to get our hands on this game? I'm so excited to see it come to full fruition!
Mr. 100'th post, I'm sorry to inform you that no form of bribing, kissing up, interrogation, or eavesdropping will allow you to squeeze a release date out of the stubborn lovely devs. Believe me, I've tried.
