47 Minute Starbound Livestream!

That will be really useful!

 

Thanks for the link! I´ll place it on the main page now.

 

Since the release is coming within like what 3 months at the absolute max im not gonna watch any previews

 

I cant wait! This is awesome! ;-)

 

So you know my old password...Here,get a like and go away!

 

please... please tell me.. that there are more than 3 monsters per planet..
also, why does the machine that opens the door hum for like 15 seconds after use. its not a generator, so it shouldnt make any noise.

 

people who don't keep up with the critically acclaimed livestreams make me sad.
each planet has 3 monsters for day, 3 for night, and one per "layer" underground.
I'm also going to make the assumption that dungeons and towns may or may not have their own sets of monsters/npcs included outside of that counter.

 

I'm going to need an Extension cord for that plugin.

 

"there's gonna be a simple ecosystem in play"
FU** YEAH
a game like this MUST feel real, even if not realistic, if you know what i mean

 

woah... scared me for a minute. thought I was banned. I got a message like url not found on server. but yea... only 3.. that hurts my optimistic outlook a lot. Guess I was expecting spawns to be like terraria. like.. 8+ different slimes, rabbits, etc during the day, then zombies, werewolves, eyes, etc at night. Doesnt 10 at night and 10 during the day sound more interesting and playable? I'm sure I'm not alone.

 

These streams are nice
Guess I'd like something a bit more formal, though.

 

interesting post. would've never knew about these without u. so thx

 

Same here

 

you forget, my friend.
as far as we know, these are only "general wilds" beasties.
there could be additional sets for every dungeon and town to add variety.
don't lose hope just yet.

 

In fact if you read the stuff in the livestream, Tiy says that they are just testing 4 legged mob spawning. We just have to remember when we see informal stuff like this: This is not how the game looks, nor how it will look. This is how the debugging/testing build that Tiy is playing looks right now.

 

precisely my point.
there's so little we DO know about the game, and the Devs are being as vague as they can be while still giving us information on their procedurally generated game. At this point we can't possibly be dissapointed, simply because of all the things they aren't saying that might include that thing they haven't confirmed but we really want.

 

I dearly hope so. I yearn to land on planets filled with monsters and other dangers that will challenge my skill to survive as I quest for hidden treasure in the depths below.

seeing those 3 monster over and over kinda rubbed me wrong, I apologize. I guess I'm still used to terraria.

On a separate note, "terraria" is not a real word? come on Webster get with the program. lol.

 

if a terrarium is a glass spheroid filled with tons of plants and stuff to resemble a small cut-out of an environment...
then wouldn't "terraria" be the plural form?

 

oh snap! you're right. It IS a word. http://www.thefreedictionary.com/terraria

 

you're missing the point, you will be traveling much more in starbound, thereby seeing much more biome with different monsters everytime.
also, this (relatively) small amount of monsters in each biome is to give planets more consistency. with the procedurally generated biomes, along with day/night cycle (and theire specific monsters), weather and primitive ecosystem, this whole design will make planets more consistent and thereby more enjoyable.

wouldnt it spoil your suspension of disbelief to see a plain cow on a volcano planet ? yeah

so basicly, its to preserve a certain integrity, uniqueness and consistency between the dozens of planets we will explore. (also, tiy said it was to keep the procedural generator to go completly ape**** on a single planet)
