Drills vs Pickaxes: The universal idiots argument. TL;DR

I wholeheartedly agree, as mentioned before, this thread is meant to counter arguments against the drill, it is neither for, nor against the drills or pickaxes.
This is a pretty good summary of my point.

I suppose this is about all that needs to be said either way.
If anyone has any objections, feel free to write in. Just try
to be proper about it, we don't need to get another scenario
where Jonesy or another mod has to step in.

 

I think they should keep pickaxes, drills etc, add mining lasers, and have the matter manipulator upgradeable to mine etc (maybe have multiple types that excel at certain block types?) and have it almost cosmetic, but have pickaxes break slower than drills but also dig slightly slower, mining lasers needing to be recharged after a certain time and matter manipulators on the same as mining laser?... Also make explosives craft able near start of game

 

Thats basically almost what i'm saying.
Did you read the OP? You're only re-iterating what i've said.

 

This is a good way to get people to agree with you, bite their head off when they do. I wonder what will happen if nobody posts in this topic for a while or positively, will you question why?

 

i honestly find the arguments a little redundant, drills make perfect sense in a tech upgrade from pickaxes way...... no one is saying that once you find a apex village in the gamma sector you won't be able to spend 300k pixels on a uber mining laser markXIV that can instantly drill down to the core of the planet...... only that you as a character can only make so certain things with the experiences that you've had.....

 

I can only wonder if you're trolling. The reason I ask everyone who comes by to read the OP.
Im basically saying that there is nothing wrong with the current system. My stance on this is
to say hey guys, lets not fight everything has its place.

I don't know if you know this, but what i'm saying that the arguments are redundant. That everything has its place.
I would direct you to read the OP, but then some other people think that when I say that, i mean to bite people's heads
off. Logic?

Because Internet explorer?
In all honesty, did you read the OP? Theres nothing wrong with the systems, is what i'm saying.
*facedesk*

Actually, yes, I think you'e trolling me. I doubt that anyone in the universe can be this stupid. I very seriously doubt.
The only question is, why? Are you a freind of Kain, or whatever his name is? Are you just bored?

 

ROFL!
An epic thread about pick axes. And drills. And manupilators. =)
(that's pilates for your hand, I assume)

Don't meet them on their level. They'll beat you with experience.

 

I like pickaxe as an intro tool, basic as the player is lacking in advanced tech to craft more complex machinery. Drills come around a good time, and i suspect (and hope) there will be another upgrade after drills. I'm gona root for, mining laser!

Im not a fan of having the matter manipulator as the be all, end all, of tools.

 

I read it, I then gave my opinion, if it matches yours that's good right? If not I will refrain from posting on your threads again.

 

I appreciate that you agree with me, as much as I like people that agree with me, i'm not here to get myself an ego
boost. I'm here to see if theres anyone who gives a counter argument. I admit, it is my fault for not adding a poll
or something of the sort, and the only way to agree is to write (Which i appreciate you doing).

 

Just chill man, don't take it too seriously.

 

Why can't I just upgrade the matter manipulator? The damn thing is weaker than a copper pickaxe.

 

The current belive, although thats pure speculation, is that it is simply broken or in any other form not fully functional.

 

I dont understand why people can complain about that.
Starbound don't use that much logic (being able to breath on any planet, being able to stay in a asteroid field without swell up to death, etc)

Also, we dont now how powerful the matter manipulator is, they dont even exist.

 

OP: RP server is that way >>>>>

 

This was a amazing post. For all the wrong reasons.

I feel sort of bad for you now :/ . Randoms and others derailing and not understanding. I suppose their going to think of you being fed up with the nonsense as being rude.

 

You do realise that people have actually asked these questions, and that i'm answering them right?
Ooh, your zing. Its so burny.

I am annoyed. I can't help it. I'm sorry if I come off as rude, but what else can I do?

 

Nothing. This happens to me on other threads so the only cure is dealing with it unfortunately. Not that I would care if other people view me as rude on general discussion.

 

Nothing personal...you just did a lot of RP writing to make a point. I would love to read all or your thoughts, but you're going to need to be a little more succinct and a little less melodramatic to make that happen.
