ALL of that is going to be in the game either via devs or modding
that enough info for you to buy it
oh and heres the current mod page

Thanks. Wow, all that stuff sounds ambitious but really fun! I love the idea of bioengineering and sending your creation on little missions and stuff.

All the mods currently implemented look impressive, but that sort of thing overwhelms me. I don't want to play around with .ini files at such at this stage. How much is there to do presently if I just grab the beta and start experimenting?

 

[Kouriozan]

Ah yes, the patch is here, I can finally play until the next wipe! :lol

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Fuck...yeeeeeah everything is gone on singleplayer. Hopes crushed.

I SHALL REBUILD

 

[demidar]

Just touching enemies doesn't result in damage, which is a lifesaver.

 

[sqwarlock]

This is going to make planet hopping a lot harder.

Unless coal provides more fuel per unit, it looks like I may do the opposite of last time and build on a planet instead of making my ship my home. This disappoints me slightly.

 

[Mandoric]

MP wipe is confirmed. The monster randomization appears to have changed, but not trigger a regenerate until your SECOND trip down.

 

[Sarcasm]

Coal was always 2:1 for me.

 

[Kouriozan]

Oh and sticking with Avian, time to dig all the coal on the starter planet!

 

[fanboi]

Ehem... is there any patch notes?

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Just touching enemies doesn't result in damage, which is a lifesaver.

Yeah surprised me for a second. On another note, I don't think you can slash enemies through walls anymore

 

[HaRyu]

WORD OF WARNING: DON'T TRY AND CHEAT YOUR WAY THROUGH QUESTS

Ex: Like hopping on the server, and instead of making your own crafting table, you pick up someone else's.

Looks like it completely kills the quest line, no new quests will unlock.

 

[Uncle0wnage]

coal is still 2 fuel for 1 coal, but it seems like there are more coal deposits.

 

[sqwarlock]

The grass eating animation for mobs is terrifying.

 

[Cheesewheel]

Yeah that was noted in the patch notes.

There goes the easy way of getting high tier items.

What if you have your table from SP that you bring in? Same thing I presume?

It'll fix if you craft your own. I did that on my first play through and borked me up pretty good. Was curious why I couldn't craft steel.

 

[joesmokey]

Planets still exist at the same coordinates as before. Wonder if items will be at the same places from before as well.

 

[Ferrio]

I'm actually happy wood can't fuel spaceships anymore. It was far too easy to fuel up with it, and also it meant forests got clear cut for fuel instead of building supplies which kinda bites on a multi server.

 

[Foaloal]

coal is still 2 fuel for 1 coal, but it seems like there are more coal deposits.

there's supposed to be way more of every ore, so I guess that makes up for coal being seemingly the only fuel until you get those high tier ores that are probably better spent on something other than fuel anyways.

 

[Natiko]

Well, to soften the blow of losing all my stuff, the planet I initially spawned on had a Pulse Jump tech right near my spawn. Tomorrow begins the long climb back up!

 

[HaRyu]

REVISED WORD OF WARNING:

MIGHT BE A MP ISSUE. CHECKING NOW.

Edit: Okay, so... two things.

1) MP may cause the quest line to glitch, and you wont have anything past the 1st quest.

2) Trying SP after entering MP may case your game to crash.

 

[iosefe]

fresh character, spawn east of apex villiage. harpy-like creatures attack and kill a guard. drops this bad boy

 

[Grinchy]

I made a Glitch, I did a few of the beginner quests, then I walked to the left. I found a jail and within a couple minutes I had 4 weapons that could one-shot everything around me.

 

[sqwarlock]

Ok, flying creatures are WAY too aggressive now. I'm being bombarded before I can even see them sometimes.

 

[Ferrio]

Tier 2 spear on tier 1?

 

[iosefe]

Tier 2 spear on tier 1?

indeed. same issue Grinchy seems to have had.

it's a good problem to have

Yea someone on Reddit was talking about guards dropping overpowered weapons. This will get patched right away I bet. But first, they need to sleep. They deserve it too.

guys if your stuff was eviscerated
the advanced start mod works with annoyed koala i can confirm it myself

 

[Walshicus]

Ugh, was only a matter of time...

[fanboi]

We had a good run guys

 

[HaRyu]

Running into an issue where I can't seem to get into SP anymore.

And there's some odd error messages popping up in the server window... I'll need to look into that one.

When I wake up later, I'll be taking the server down for a bit to check things out, I'll tweet and post here when I'm about to do it.

Hmm, guess I'll wait until tomorrow to try MP then, don't wanna mess anything up in SP. They may release a hotfix if it's widespread.

Also...ponies...guess that was to be expected, but it hasn't even been a full week yet!

 

[sqwarlock]

Found a red flashlight.

 

[Drkirby]

Found a red flashlight.

Colored flashlights seem cool, but they tend to work poorly at actually making things viable.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

- Added new hats

We Dota 2/TF2 now.

 

[sqwarlock]

Colored flashlights seem cool, but they tend to work poorly at actually making things viable.

Yeah, I noticed that. Switched back to my standard light after a couple of small cave systems.

EDIT: Hmm, it also seems that fall damage kicks in earlier now. Fell what seemed an insignificant amount and took 15.

 

[Shinjica]

Someone can clarify two point?

1) they wipe character and planet?

2) they add some sort of key remapping?

Thanks

Hahaha, omfg.

 

[Grinchy]

Wow, just had my first crash of the beta. And I think I have like 8 tier 2 weapons now just from exploring the first structure I found in my world. After finding them, I finished the quest for smelting a couple iron bars lol

 

[RVinP]

Thank you GAF

I dug into the idea to play the beta and purchased 4 copies of the game,
"to boldly go where no man has gone before" for the nth time.

 

[Mandoric]

Chests are similar but not identical; techs and ores seem to be the same with most other stuff shaken up.

Shields appear to be either broken or severely nerfed, unless I just happen to have gotten a useless one.

 

[Fistwell]

Diamond... ore?

 

[Mandoric]

Diamond... ore?

Makes diamonds. Sloooowly.

 

[DXLelouch153]

its all gone =(
went to my SP planet and my stuff is gone

 

[demidar]

I am just swimming in ore now, whereas silver was rare on tier 1 planets now I'm getting an abundance of gold on tier 1 planets.

 

[Sarcasm]

So do those hair mods still work? Where can I get them?

 

[iosefe]

same here. found 55 ore in my first cave, which wasn't so much a cave as a diagonal line into the ground.

 

[BearPawB]

Found a sweet axe with a left click fire attack / right click poison attack

 

[Lissar]

So do those hair mods still work? Where can I get them?

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/84806007/Lissar's Starbound Hair Mods.rar

Yep, I checked compatibility and everything works fine. (Didn't even have to rewrite any code, it was all good to go from the start).
