OmnipotentEntity: Upcoming update is huge.

Something tells me you weren't there when Terraria first launched and was using BORROWED FF6-4 sprites for a lot of things. Also Terraria engine wise is a lot more simple and limited than SB's not to mention the engine was built FROM SCRATCH. And before you call me biased I'll have you know I loved terraria. Still do. However it's launch was nowhere near better than Starbound's beta 1 phase.

 

this game is not twitter , what ever shit happens on twitter is for noobs , for pros there is main page which is completely forgotten by devs , they quited probably making this games

 

Do you enjoy talking out of your own arse?

 

I feel a disturbance in the derp...

 

your statement is obvious bait. that being said, i like you.

 

i will admit that given the resources, i was expecting more out of SB even at this stage. World generation has been the most disappointing to me. i feel that its spread far too thin, planets dont feel alien enough from each other, and there not much depth to them. These kind of games arent as interesting if your just skimming the surface. The procedural generation of monsters have turned out to be somewhat lackluster and have me longing for more hand created creatures to liven things up.

That said- i still think this is an awesome game as is. Its not as genre defining as i hoped it would be, but its definitely one of the best 2d mining games out right now. It also has a very healthy modding community. In fact, I'm more anticipating the full release so modders can start work on their overhauls than i am the actual release.

My criticism of this game is more about living up to the hype than anything. SB is a really good game and the devs are doing an awesome job. I think some people just need to accept the game for what it is, instead of what they hoped it would be. Its a different take on things, and its fun.

 

We are also in stage one of beta testing so about 90% of the end game features aren't in yet. Stage one is bug testing and optimization to make sure the game engine runs properly before they start adding more features.

 

I just wish they'd add one simple thing in this update...

A guy can dream...

 

I absolutely love people who throw stuff like "90%" around. Where is this list of features that are going to be in the game you speak of? Or are you just stating your dreams? Yes, I agree, there'll probably be some more content added, however I extremely doubt that what we have right now is around "10%" of the actuall content the devs have thought up and planned for. My estimate would be that current content in the game is around "60-70%" of what we'll have when the game is "released", but that, like your % is just rubbish

 

Uhr.. No, his estimate may be off, but we have maybe 30-40% in game, considering we only have 4 of the 10 tiers in place, and that's just basing it off the tiers, not mentioning things like extra planets, space combat, vehicles, proper implementation of pets, quests. So as far as actual content goes, yeah we're quite a ways off.

 

More like 40% because only 4 tiers are properly implemented

 

So there are no items in the game after tier 4 then?

 

Those items are placeholder and just a giant primordial soup.

 

bartwe is a cult of personality or atleast AI personality perhaps even skynet?

 

http://playstarbound.com/roadmap/ So the roadmap, where very few of the features they are planning for the game are completed, is inaccurate then? They did say they disabled much of the features they plan to have in endgame at this point for the purposes of bug testing the game engine and the few features they have implemented right now. I never said they didn't have more features completed, I said they didn't have them in game play yet. The core mechanics aren't even completed yet.

No, I'm not dreaming, computers and video games are capable of so much more than you seem to think they are. Maybe 90% is an overestimation, maybe it isn't but all the same, the game is by no means complete.

Also @Elate, I'm a woman, not a man. I realize my name is a bit gender neutral but please, if you're going to give me a gender, make it the correct one.

 

No need for the snark. If you want people to use the correct gender, then put it in your profile otherwise how do you expect people to get "the correct one".

 

I'm going to murder you if you post this gif one more time :/ .

 

you act like anyone cares what gender you are. hint: nobody cares what gender you are.

 

lol

 

I think it is a valid complaint that the list of "features" for the update is quite short, however going by the indicated amount of changes to the code/resources, this indicates that this is a mainly under-the-hood type update (which makes sense, since this is supposed to be the final character wipe). I know that in projects I've been involved in, making huge changes to how the engine does stuff, smashing bugs, and boosting performance are all great changes that people want, but you don't get to post anything cool in terms of "features" about it.

Anyway. Guess I'll sit here and wait for video games to update.
