Dungeons of old and new

    I know that with the glad Giraffe update, there are new micro dungeons to find, and I have been exploring to see what all there is, but I don't know if I have found most of the new ones, or just a few. Likewise, all of the old micro dungeons seem to have disappeared from the system if you go to a new, unexplored planet.

    I do like the new ones, but I also miss seeing the old ones on the planets I've visited before the update. Has anyone encountered the old micro dungeons in the new update while exploring new worlds looking for the new micro dungeons? Also, how many new ones have been found?

    that's something i pointed out in a previous post (or at least I tried to). that all the old micro dungeons were gone, and that the new micro dungeon things tend to repeat themselves quite a bit. It feels like yes there's been a change, but it doesn't feel like the game has grown in content. In fact, it almost feels like there's less content.

    Basically all the microdungeons were replaced as they've gone through that touched up nearly all the planets.

    They do seem to repeat a lot but that is because they spawn more and are more distinct than they used to be. It is easier to pick out a defined structure or shape vs a few mounds of blocks. The fact is, however, that there are many more microdungeons than there were before.

    Yeah, that how it does feel, after exploring more. I'm glad for the change, But I miss a bit of the old.



    Yeah, they do spawn a lot, and I've almost already figured out which micro dungeon "biome" is which now, due to the certain blocks each one has. And I know that's not a true term, but that is how it feels now after playing some more with the update and not seeing any of the old ones that used to be around. However, I do agree that the micro dungeons themselves are more varied and interesting than most of the old ones that where underground.


    But thank you, you two. That helps a lot with understanding the new layout of the micro dungeons, and if there was any olds ones still left to be found after the Glad update.

    On a tangential note, while I haven't been able to find any USCM prisons, which were really cool, I could find some USCM underground installations. Not sure if they're new or not, but their whole block and furniture set looks extremely basic and outdated compared to, say, the fairly recent Outpost stuff. I hope they're planning on improving/redoing those graphics before 1.0 hits. Apex labs might need a facelift as well.
