    Pretty straight forward -- a Cyborg race. Half human [insert race name here], half robot. Relatively simple. Check out my noobish pixel art of a human-cyborg. It would definitely have different hair variations, such as half hair & half metallic cranium, or just all metallic cranium, no hair, but with human face.

    Right side of the body would mainly be robotic, and left side mainly human [insert race name here].

    To become a Cyborg there is one of two options:
    • Progress further in-game with a race of your choice until you find/craft a technological device/item that allows you to implement robotic parts into your character's body (This item could be found in Robots' world!)
    • Have the Cyborg race added in the character creation menu from beginning, asking for a race that you wish to mix the robotic side into automatically (though I wouldn't like this option as much as the first)
    For example, a pure Floran would have their own exclusive, unique blueprints early game. If it can be played from the beginning of game, a Floran Cyborg, in the other hand, would have similar blueprints to that of the Floran's, with some varied tweaks, and some similar characteristics to that of a Robot's. If it can only be achieved later in-game, the tweaks would then be introduced.


    Nothing fancy like some of the suggestions I've seen around here, but just an idea. :giggle:

    This also brings up another idea: hybrid races.

    I like it. The idea of having the Robot and Human race work together. Could be an end-game feature of combining said races!

    But it would only be fair if the other classes could be combined as well.

    I thought we discuss this before, at the time during the beta.

    Beta? What beta? They are not even thinking about making it publicly accessible if it ever happens.

    It's a good idea, but it needs more sprites than a normal race. Double, exactly. cause if the right side is the robot one, when you are walking to the right, you'll see more robot than human, but when walking to the left, you'll see more human. It's more work, but it isn't impossible, and i like the idea!

    i think it would make more sense if all races could have cyborg counterparts that you could choose from.

    say i want to be a floran, but i want it to be a cyborg floran..
    you get where i'm going with this.

    Pure Florans would have their own exclusive crafting blueprints (as any other race) in early game. Meanwhile, a Floran Cyborg would have some tweaks; slightly different blue prints with a bit of mixture to that of the pure robot.

    But as AuDax mentioned, it would be interesting to see hybrid races composed of the default races, like a Human Floran.

    U dunno about the beta? It still going duh, I dunno how long they going keep it in the beta, the other guys discuss during the races pop up want the list and that which it is hard keep track how many ppl want androids, cyborg, fishy ppl, slime, and too much infomation keep track which start hurt so bad because I am keeping track other games forum like this but I am only eying on this the most. Oh by the dragon my brain is going spill out the blood of my vain in the head part...

    Don't worry about the picture, it's much better then I can do, but wouldn't becoming a cyborg automatically be in the game?

    They could have some sort of technology item that is crafted/found later in-game which implements robotic parts into your current race if you wish.

    Or

    They could have the Cyborg class added to the character creation menu from the start, which allows you to pick one race and make it a Cyborg automatically.

    Becoming a Cyborg later during the game would be more fun than starting as one.

    or you think I am trolling when I know few tiny secret of my friend are telling me how good this game or special things in the game. Pretty much I am getting paid keep my mouth shut what is the secret in the game. (side happy rant) You'll have your head spilling for chaos for that your going love for starbound is becoming more chaotic then ever that everyone crave for >: D . Anyway back to the discussion, yes there had been discussion once again explaining to "WoxandWarf", but it had not been clearly that we are going have cyborg cuz they might make some thous, u know vanity items like. They had for said they are making underwater ppl first of time being, which it gives them no time making cyborg so it is in the halt. Reason why it is in halt is because robot is the link to cyborg for that everyone paid the prices for not listen the guy somewhere said, go for the robot, cuz he know cyborg will be after that.

    Watching bucket head, sometime you could be wrong too. For that I am telling the truth because of that, only the fools who think in judgement form the outside, but don't know inside. Not only that, I bet you want to see it what is in there. The reason why I said beta, it is really it is an alpha to alternative use of words cuz it been pass how many years? about 2 years, and look alpha will turn into beta soon enough so quit ur whining saying I am wrong. (off the topic) Words of meaning of mine is very confusing puzzle which you might find something out the unknown which only few discover the codes mean. For example: I am in robot, with another robot, to another robot that in robot, with that robot, to the another robot, yet out robot. to translate: I made pointless going around in circle using my transportation. Everyone have their codes which I written my codes in chaos

    Rather than cyborgs, actual cybernetic enhancements would be cool. They would be available to all races and grant certain bonuses. You can decide to show them or cover them. I would like all races to be able to apply cybernetic enhancements instead of strictly humans.

    try it not skipping a line or try read it backward, oh wait your just robot with only a program that you need a command figure out how solve a simple meaning. when I said "like" it could come close to or change of meaning of the subject or have close % of that meaning. Now...Go back whine in your little bed.

    I am gamer, but the one thing is fun is bring chaos and confusion other players, so that other players accidentally shoot their own allies to another allies. = domino effects
