Other bits and pieces coming with the balance update

Looking fantastic as always, Tiy, I can't wait to see the growth and evolution in action! That baby monster looks adorawesome- adorable and awesome combined.

The growth and evolution could be a very big part of taming monsters later on as well, once that's added in.

 

you miss spelled wipe so you might want to shut up.

 

Could you be a little bit more specific? Should I stay up and wait for the patch tonight?

 

I'm curious, are the Racial Armor bonuses going to work in this update? I don't notice any change in anything while I'm wearing a full set of Sparrow armor, even though I am an Avian.

Another thing: are monsters still going to be able to flatten us easily as they can now?

 

Racial bonuses are probably going to be later in stage one or early stage 2 due to the balance issues they can cause.

 

Loving the game and appreciating all the work y'all are doing. Can't wait for the update!

 

This stuff is all great, but please I ask you to consider making customizable hotkeys as soon as possible. Authotkey is not a perfect solution. And it would seem you could do this rather easily via a config.ini file.

You clearly have the code to parse .ini files for the other settings. You could do it really lazy even and make us look up the keycodes and do little to no parsing of the file, "do at your own risk" kind of thing. I mean I'd be quite ecstatic with that. Autohotkey simply doesn't work well for me. I get stuck keys, and missed keys..

Please consider giving this soon as you can. It greatly distracts from the game for me.

Also, can you look into the issue some of us has reported about our Mic's being shut off by the game during transitions of music, or travelling to the ship and back? There are some threads in the tech support section. There are not many of us, but I am intimately in tune with my mic from being a youtuber and streamer for a year now. I am absolutely certain the game is turning the mic off.

These two issues are serious detractions from the game for me. I would actually like to stream it and make videos for it (like 1,000,000 people). And I really can't as these two issues make it extremely difficulty if not impossible (not knowing if my mic is cutting out randomly makes it' impossible to record reliably).

Please I beg of you guys to look at these things. I love this game and want to play the hell out of it. But I need these changes!

 

Valve soon i hope!

 

Please implement more tech, that is all I desire...

 

They stated future patches would be released around 12pm GMT (so they're around should something go bad) so if they stick to that the earliest possible release is in 15 hours.

 

Seems they are adding baby monsters, but if I read it correctly, it says, the growth/evolution thing, will be something added in the future.
So probably there will be baby monsters around, but you won't be able to do anything with them yet

 

Looks like I'm not sleeping tonight..

 

Are the babies also aggressive or will they be passive or will they just run away?

 

I hope you mean 5 hours.

 

To those that aren't aware, you can survive against monsters if you don't run straight at them with no tactics in mind and tank damage. Don't gung-ho.

The level of challenge right now is truly nice, you simply have to platform and outmaneuver your foes, and carry healing items such as bandages and regen food of course. Build new armour and weapons (the weapons you can build when you gain an anvil are really good, and will help you advance, shields help too). Don't just go to a level 4 or 5 planet when you get off your level 1 planet and expect to live.

So the level of challenge is 100% fine as it is, this is an RPG Adventure game with a quest line after all, with a lot of platforming aspects. Just gotta use tactics and take the precautions and play it like a Megaman game- don't just run into your foes blindly.

Tech already exists in the game, simply not in the early tiers of the game. The earlier tiers are meant to be somewhat medieval as you are just entering the game, stranded on a new planet after escaping from your home planet and are out of fuel. You can't just be handed it in the first few hours, it is intended to be an RPG adventure game experience, with a full quest line and advancement progress taken into consideration.

Once you advance to higher threat level planets and the new sectors, defeating the bosses and such for the newer stations, you will encounter mechs and all such wondrous tech. Also, the guns are readily available if you find an air ship anchored to the ground. They readily sell guns.

 

I want to see monsters that can dig through dirt. Just for the added challenge such creatures would add.

 

My mind says try to learn more about these sparkly glowey technologies I "borrow" from others... but my Floran blood craves the hunt! So first we kill all the babies, then we... do I dare say... eat the dead babies??

Nah but I am really excited for the monster updates, forgot about the planned evolution and what not, fun stuff!

 

No because that would be 12 am GMT not pm

 

thx ty

 

This is a really great Idea I personally love farming bosses for rare items and ive had no luck with finding minibosses in 25 plus worlds
