Your Questions

I took your advice and created a thread in the Suggestions forum.

 

There's a Tiy twitch where he shows off a good amount of the different armors.
Also in a recent dev blog post they mentioned they'd finished the ten tiers of non-random appearance armor, and there is a bunch of randomly generated armor that could make you look like a knight or something.
I'm definitely lookin forward to all of everything, but I do hope that with so many amazing items that the game never turns into a slog to find what you want.

 

Gentlemen ,
welcome to a good idea.

And on the topic of keeping the topics on topic...

Techs. How much do we know? Do we know ANYTHING?
I know that Tiy has mentioned that Techs are not meant to be 'tiered' in that any one tech should replace another as you progress.
I know that Tiy has mentioned that some Techs introduce new gameplay mechanics by modifying the way that a character could move.
I basically know everything in Blue's post (first link in my sig).
But is there anything more?!? Anything perhaps not in Blue's post (since it hasn't been updated in a month now?)
I... I am starting to lose my mind over waiting for this game.
(yes, I know you all are there with me, so I apologize for blabbering all over the place like an incoherent nincompoop. Good Gravy I think that was spelled poorly. Also, I like these smileys... )

 

You named literally everything we know on techs. Perhaps you should shoot Tiy a tweet asking if we could hear more about them?

 

Thank You

 

Tha

Thank You

 

Is there any information regarding the passing of time in the game?

Will there be a difference between space travel and homeplanet time taking into consideration the theories of travel that approaches the speed of light that would be required to traverse the galaxy?

If so, will the passing of time affect your home planet or visited planets in your absence?

 

Different planets have different day-night cycles. Time will probably only pass on planets that players are on.
This game does not try to adhere to the laws of physics in relation to space travel, as such we will be using FTL space travel.

 

there may also be time markers so that when you leave a planet for ages and come back time will have passed.

 

Agreed, I bet some players will set up 'Agricultural Planets' for growing Food for use during exploration... that'll be nigh impossible if a Planet doesn't bother having time pass when a Player isn't on it.

New Question: Does the Chocolate Fountain from that last Progress Update have equivalents, like Caramel Fountains, Butterscotch Fountains, or dare I say it... Icee Fountains?

 

well... dunno if somebody already asked, but are you gonna implement the card thing that is on beta now on steam? .... it would be a w e s o m e to have cards and background of starbound

 

You mean achievements upgraded? The new system that trades, transform into bagdes, etc?

Tiy stated it want to make use of everything Steam as to offer, from Achievements, Workshop. Since that is still BETA and limited let's see if by Starbound Launch that is ready and working for Starbound be able to integrate with it.

I assume also that is limited to some games approved by Steam first. ^^

 

Will there be banana vision?

 

There better be!

 

I've looked around but I haven't seen anyone asking this question or it being covered. But I'm sorry if it's been talked about. The camera system seems a bit weird, from seeing videos it looks like where your cursor is, the camera follows but with a limit. Is there an option to disable that so it's more like Terraria? If not then that could be a pretty big issue for some people I think, or not. I would recommend making an option like that but if I'm the only one who thinks this then I guess it doesn't really matter. Could you please explain how it works?

 

Interesting.

 

Indeed it is

 

No but really one thing that would be interesting to see would be friendships(relation ships) and if your friendship is high enough you could start a family or something

 

The Streams Tiy said the zoom he is capable off with Mouse Drag and Drop the window to not always center your character it's more about Admin/Developer stuff. It's unlikely that in final game you click drag and drop or have the huge Zoom levels you saw in some streams (zoom being limited is confirmed). ^^

 

Thats pretty neat btw my friend wants to know if Starbound will have controller support?
