holy crap...literally

So I found a planet that had a neat little dungeon in it filled with.....poop monsters in a sewer or something i guess i dunno....any way I was 1 shotting everything with my nifty gamma level sniper rifle and i was just screwing around on a level 1 planet using things as target practice to get used to shooting. Anyway to the main point of what I was saying .....A little turd monster with a big smile was just bouncing around (I was wearing gold armor for this) when suddenly it latches onto my head and in a horrific display of violence and fear (well not really but I digress) it did 168 damage to me instantly killing me. I'm not sure if that little beasty was supposed to hit that hard but I'll tell ya what if you ever see one of them don't let his cute smile fool you. And to clarify it's not the larger of the 2 that walks around this is the smaller of the 2 that looks like a dog turd and bounces around!!!

 

Sounds like the crap variant of a face hugger from Alien. That being said I've encountered these before and never seen them latch on.

 

I found a sewer dungeon before as well. All the monsters in it seemed of appropriate challenge level, untill a tiny jumping turd thing one shotted me. It was weird. But not that big of a deal, sometimes I die and I went back and just had to be super careful with it. If the tiny turd thing is meant to be that dangerous than so be it. But I had similar experience to the op, tiny unassuming enemy one hit kill me.

 

Right if it's meant to be that's cool but if the damage properties are off I wanted to make sure it was known...i almost pooped a little laughing so hard when it happened

 

Great. Just great. People were complaining about the Pos ( ) even before the game came out; and now, we're never going to hear the end of it.

When the po was first announced, people freaked out, because the masses wanted starbound to be ultra realistic, and the po.... is not. It took 8 mods, 7 doses of anti-inflammatory medication and 3 days of intensive exorcism to calm the masses from an open revolt to the chuckling fish. I suppose this is Tiy's way of making sure people get the message that starbound... can sometimes not fit your expectations.

 

There are supposedly meant to be enemies that latch onto your head coming up soon, if they aren't out already. Some might even function like Metroids.

 

Whatever happens I want to keep them the way they are.

 

i dont like them :< remove from game pls

 

as I said I personally have no problem with it. I think a mutant radioactive dog turd that latches onto my head and kills me is about as funny as this game has been so far.

 

Indeed. If tiny poo is meant to be this dangerous, maybe it should have the red sparkly things around it that mini bosses do.

 

Honestly, I think this is pretty cool as it stands. I just hope it doesn't start a flame war about "po being too unrealistic" for a second time.

 

I found a Glitch temple that was built directly over a room filled with poop monsters.
There's some really interesting buildings out there.

 

saw it.. died.. never went back...
