    DPS systems are over simplified in my opinion. It takes any aspect of discovery out of combat and turns everything into a no brainer. Ugh, I get so depressed whenever I see a game describe stuff in terms of DPS!

    Nice, this update sounds good :) also, i had a queery about the pickaxes/axes. I mean, no offense, but really? Those tools kind of take away from the sci fi aspect of the game, it just feels like terraria all over again. ... Why not make them drills/lazers? And a machine on the ship can turn copper into a circuitboard, and then you can make the parts?

    I very, very much think that all of the weapons that attack in a small line should be able to be aimed, and the big weapons should be able to be swung down at enemies... but... that's just my suggestion.

    Your character is your universe. Wipe that and you wipe your ship, your inventory, buildings, changes to planets etc.. etc.. It's basically starting again fresh, completely new. A new character needs to be created.

    It's more of a game wipe than a character wipe.

    Does this include health numbers, like your health saying, I don't know, '536/1958' or something? I don't really get the point of hitpoints being displayed if you don't even know the targets health. I know there are 'blocks' in a health bar, but for specific damage (3 or 7, so on), it's practically useless and leaves you wondering whether your actually damaging them well.

    I wish there was some way to go about this update without the reset, even if some items need to be changed/removed it would be cool if you could at least let us import or universe and sector progress to new characters if our current ones have to be deleted anyway. Any way, thanks for the updates anyway, even if it means i lose my progress :(

    Wipes are to be expected, hopefully people aren't getting too attached to their characters! I think the proposed changes sound pretty good actually, waiting to see how they play out.

    You could spawn in the items you lost when you make a new character.
    Though you won't be able to help test the re-balance.

    Ya im going to wait. I'm happy enough knowing i supported the devs (Indie games are saving this industry) and can play when it fits my preferences.

    Im pecking at stones here, but I take it simply deleting all weapons and or armour from our characters, and all worlds/sectors reset would be too difficult and unreasonable to put in place?
    Ive spent a fair bit of time gathering decorations that really wouldnt be effected by these changes(at least if they were left on the ship), and gear would be easily replacable with materials on hand.
    However the time investment required to focus wipe isnt worth delaying the fix so wipe it all and Il just hunt them down again later.
    Hopefully even though the level ranges are changing worlds stay the same - so il just record my world locations.

    sounds good man, just know that you have the beta there whenever you get the itch to play. You never know it may happen more often than you think. This game will be highly addictive and Already is to me!

    I'm still trying to figure out how the game works. I'm not sure what you're supposed to do after you kill the Ufo boss. The beta sector seems too hard for me even with full OP Snow Infantry armor. What I really want to do is build a home base, but we planet hop on this game too much for that to be possible.... And I can't find gold to make gold armor because the gold ores seem bugged according to devs? I just don't know how to feel about this game. I'm also still not sure how dyes work, and I don't know how you make a "weather control" or whatever it is, or how you "recruit" npcs in the overworld.

    I like the Idea~
    The leveling seemed confusing for me too...
    Especially the damage!

    I did not expect the 1st weapon I would have crafted [being the iron ... anything] would 1 hit kill almost every monster i saw... It kinda bugged me...
    With this new damage system armor and enemy hp system... I'm betting everything will become much better....

    Oh btw... may I ask... will there be a chance of Higher hp enemies that moves very slow and resist knockback.... and other varieties too?
    It felt bland that almost all the enemies i fought all moved at the same speed.... well except for the Unique monsters like the mechspider, the po and the po golem...

    Everybody, please stop complaining about character and world resets! Tiy /dev team explicitly told you that you should not get attached to your characters, as frequent character wipes would be happening. Expect this all through the early beta!

    I was wondering if you guys will ever make Mac OSX 10.6 work. Can you please do so as fast as possible? I cannot play with there limitations.

    I have to say I did find the current armor/lvl system more than little confusing, so making them simpler and more user friendly can only be good thing in my eyes :) Oh and thank you all so much for all your hard work on such a fantastic game, you give a breath of fresh air in an industry filled with microtransactions and Assassin's Creed 57's lol

    Awesome news! Hope you guys implement some kind of liquid storing system, I'd love to be able to move liquids around or even take them to other planets. Canisters that could stack maybe?
