July 31st update - Programming retrospective

Where they are at a point they are satisfied by what they have done. I know that isn't much an answer, but really it is the only one I can give; since it is up to them. Plus right now the progression isn't even done yet, so a while yet...

 

Now, that's kind of a disingenuous way of trying to frame things. They aren't "haters," they're dissatisfied customers, a very important difference. You can't pretend these are just people "hayting" on something because it's successful, pretty much every single one of them has invested time and money into this game. There's no wrath so fierce as hype scorned.

That said, I am excited to see this next update.

 

I will grant you that they have a right to be dissatisfied customers if they opted in to at least unstable and for sure nightly, because then they would see the bare raw content and have something to actually base their complaints on, but I stand by my point otherwise that they were given the option to play the content as it came out, they were warned it would be buggy, and they are demanding a finished product from an indie developer with minimal staff. this is not the 90's where everything was polygons and shaders with the worlds simplest A/B attack and interact function. And they need to realize that before making further demands.

 

I'll just quote Molly to answer you : "We'll always happily refund them" (the players who aren't happy with the game). And it's not the case, they don't do any refund...

Early access or not, I found the gameplay really bad, and a lot of things I don't want to talk about anymore... You(re happy with it, good for you. But I clearly want my money back. When I think I bought it for 2 of my friends....

 

Agreed with all of the above.

As long as nobody tries to pretend that the game is feature-complete and on time, I'll forgive and forget, and wait patiently for the next stable update. And if someone wants a refund - well, they may have unrealistic expectations regarding software development time, but objectively speaking, it's a hard fact that the game was not released with the promised features and on time. I think the people wanting refunds will be missing out big time getting their refunds now, and I'd advise against it... but I do think they have the right to it.

Oh, but apparently this makes me a "hater," nvm

 

I fund it really funny that some people want refund for Starbound at ~15 $,
but when the bought Watchdogs/Thief/AnotherBadGamesOutHere at ~50 $ and see it sucks, they don't want any refund.

 

People are dumb, 'nuf said.

 

They don't?

 

Stable patch confirmed. All aboard the hype train!!!

 

Next update looks like it'll be pretty crazy once it's done. I really can't wait to get my hands on it to mod as much crap as I can.

 

Yay for new stuff and great progress!
I'm one of those players who bought the game at the very beginning, I love it and I think it has huge potential to one day, when it's out of beta, become so awesome our brains will explode (I know it can be that, I see amazing stuff coming)
just I am, as some others, getting just a tiny bit impatient from waiting for the next stable release, don't get me wrong, I know it takes time for all of this, but u know.. gimme new toys! lol

 

This update is going to be massive, and worth waiting.
Shame that most of the players are very impatient.

 

Everyone give applused!

 

Actually - no. Player himself will be the trigger, which activates effects from "radiation" on self, when withing certain range from radioactive resource. Or possible there will be global trigger that will create radiation field according to radioactive resources locations...
