Changes coming tonight

Quick question: When are the Plus and Minus buttons in the navigation menu going to be made to work? I don't know if it's just me, but they currently do nothing.

 

I think the appropriate response here is "If you like grind, I have a wide selection of F2P games to introduce you to"

 

Why are people even on Windows XP still? ;p

 

These changes sound exceptional, and I applaud each one.

 

What about levels for your own character? Is there going to be a "lvl indicator + xp bar"? Please
And being able to choose where to get beamed from your ship on each planet would be sweet.
Glowing swords, nyone?

 

tiy said almost a YEAR ago that there was never gonna be a character level instead the level system is 100% item based

 

Any word on when this is going live?

 

-Disable steam auto-update.
-Play forever on the beta version.
-Do not overuse capital letters and character size.
-If all else fail, wait for a mod that will revert the game back to this stage.

 

Molly said on Twitter that they're gonna tweet it when it goes live.

 

I'd like to second (or third, or... however many others have come before me) the rebindable controls. As a laptop player with no access to an external mouse, it's quite a tough game to play. Still very enjoyable, but harder than it needs to be.

It's great to see the team pushing out regular updates though. I've seen a few beta games that have gone weeks/months without any word at all from developers, which is somewhat distressing. Keep up the great work!

 

ChuckleFish GOTY

 

I sure hope the pixel-on-death nerf is temporary. I'm not a fan of joining a multiplayer and having people mindlessly fling themselves to their deaths over and over. It's boring and feels pointless. I want to work together with people to plan for, and achieve, a successful strike / mining expedition / exploratory expedition.

 

Hey Tiy.

Awesome job so far addressing concerns. Its good to see. Is there any chance you could tweak the monster damage values for tier one planets though? Seems just a notch to high for the starter stuff.

 

A selectable difficulty modifier may be called for, so that the scary hardcore players can have what their massive challenge while leaving things possible for other people. Perhaps selectable on character creation.

 

So what time will Chucklefish update?

I'm actually not playing the game so that I can take advantage of the changes, and dI wondered how much time I had left to wait.

 

I know those could work. But why should not we add the health recovery? It could recover slow, I use my time to save my bandages, I think this is a fare deal.

P.S. It is so boring and stupid to wait there watching myself sleeping to restore the health. The speed is too slow.

 

At the same time though, if sleeping healed you quickly it could almost be exploited. All you'd have to do is carry a bed and quickly barricade yourself in and take a quick three second nap and BAM you're at full health. I just think for the sake of not being able to exploit it, the speed should stay the same.

 

It's supposed to be a mouse. Right click anywhere to zoom out, left click a sector to zoom in.

 

Any chance you can tweak jumping down platforms just a little bit? I was discussing it with a friend and we favored the idea of falling through a platform slow you to a speed which will not cause you to take damage should you fall just a little further. Currently, although it might be from my own lack of grace at jumping, I take damage or die roughly 30% of the times I descend into my mine.

It just feels a little wonky. Another suggestions, perhaps holding up and jump at the same time would allow you to jump repeatedly without having to press the jump button each time for quicker (and less annoying) ascension of vertical mines.

 

I don't understand why you won't allow us to teleport to the space ship from underground. The only thing that does is force us to kill ourselves to do the same thing. Who in their right mind is going to CLIMB back to the surface from the bottom just to save some pixels? It's a pointless mechanic.
