Wow. They've nerfed shit hard this time.
First set of crafting items (weps made from iron) are now all worse than the sword you start off with.
Snow gear now gives same protection as starting gear.

What's even the point of a nerf like that?

Welp, my iron bow doesn't one shot anything on my starting world anymore. I feel weak as shit again, and I'm not so sure that's a good thing. Balance seems to keep swinging wildly in each direction, but then again it is still a beta so it's ok.

Well fuck. What is going on haha

 

[Enduin]

Man I've died like 5 times now due to crazy ass birds knocking me back like 50 feet while high up and then falling to my death. Not cool

 

[Kadin]

Yeah the increased fall damage is pretty unforgiving. Have to change up the way I play a bit now... no more crazy run jumping to avoid confrontations.

 

[HaRyu]

Server is back up, not really sure why the MP login says "Server Account", but you can leave it blank. Password is still the same as usual.

 

[Flipyap]

Okay, so post-patch, this thing with a shockingly appropriate name became my best melee weapon:

Yep.

 

[CharmingCharlie]

Yup they seem to have made the game impossibly hard now. It doesn't help that you can't tell whether a planet is out of your skill range either since they are all "level 1". Hell I still can't beat the damn flying saucer.

Yeah yeah Beta blah blah.

 

[Suite Pee]

I wish sawblades affected enemies. For now, it's fun to grief my friends with them.

 

[DXLelouch153]

i really need to look at the config files before i replace them next time(gotta reinstall)

 

[iosefe]

I Have discovered true sadness.

Game updates, and my Bass Guitar is gone

*edit* and my 152 bars of gold

 

[TekGryphon]

Did they break metal ores for anyone else? I found some coal near the surface but I've been exploring caverns for the last half hour and have not found a single copper, iron, or silver ore. I've dug down to the point where it takes my stone pickaxe forever to dig through the stone.

 

[Laconic]

No Southpaw...

My $15 best be going towards coding that in, lol.

 

[Grinchy]

I'm really glad for the patch. All my old overpowered weapons now do "normal" damage. I went back to the jail and immediately got one shot killers again though. I also crashed when saving and quitting.

I'm just glad the damage is fixed. I can definitely play a ton of this tonight now.

 

[Violet_0]

yeah gonna stop playing this for a while until there won't be any more wipes or I'll just burn out

 

[Enduin]

I just killed a poop monster.

 

[DeadNames]

I just killed a poop monster.

I guess he died a shitty death.

Nope, I'm still finding ores easily. I've mentioned this before, but if you're looking for some ore, try looking in areas with a lot of sand and/or gravel.

 

[GhostRidah]

I love patches but whats with the file sizes being so big? I have a really bad internet bandwidth cap so these past updates have been killing me.

 

[Aurongel]

I just killed a poop monster.

Yeah, I found one of those poop monsters in the basement of some cultist's house on a desert planet.

 

[Sarcasm]

My drop weapon I found that did DPS of 19 and DMG per hit of 15..now dps of 9 and DMG per hit 4..O.O

 

[VandalD]

My drop weapon I found that did DPS of 19 and DMG per hit of 15..now dps of 9 and DMG per hit 4..O.O

Had a tier 2 weapon that had about 111 DPS. It's down to 9. Guess I need a new weapon!

 

[Grinchy]

I had the same thing going on, but then any new weapons I found were ~100 DPS.

 

[tylerf]

Glad they were able to patch the weapons without wiping again so soon.

 

[Enduin]

He did, he was all the way down a shit hole with several steaming piles around him.

 

[TekGryphon]

In the process of digging down I cleared out two massive caverns full of sand and gravel.

Not one ore stone in the lot.

 

[Revengineer]

I started on a weird world. Flowers everywhere. Iron ore, copper ore, silver ore (!!) everywhere.

No coal.

 

[MrCompletely]

I've been busy with work and out of touch since yesterday afternoon, can someone update me on the patch situation?

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Anyone know the name of this track? I can't even find it in their downloaded soudntrack.

They patched it really late last night and it broke the game (weapons did too much damage). They fixed it today.

 

[Slayven]

Did they say anything when controller support will be in?

 

[joesmokey]

I'm having the same issue on my home planet (Floran).

 

[kafiend]

Yeah, its lol the first time then GODDAMMIT! every time after. It doesn't help that all birds now seem to be homicidal homing pigeons. With home being wherever you are.

 

[TekGryphon]

I'm having the same issue on my home planet (Floran).

I don't know what to do

I used all my coal for torches and now I'm stuck.

 

[Enduin]

I'm finding tons of silver and gold, and a normal amount of copper/coal, but iron is pretty scarce comparatively.

 

[CTLance]

Can you guys post the coordinates of those "barren" planets? That way, the rest of us can fly there and check whether it's a bug on your side or a general problem with the procedural generation.

 

[Shadow Choke]

Caved and bought this today.

 

[GhostRidah]

How do I get to tier 2? I beat the boss after placing the beacon, but I still cannot go to planets with threat level higher than 1.

 

[aY227]

Damage 'scaling' from one enemy

Naked - 16
Naked + shield block - 15
Full Snow set - 15
Copper chest and rest Iron - 15
Shield block + set - 14
Full Iron - 15
Full Iron + shield block - 13

It starts to make sense in beta sector.
In Alpha sector: With silver armour set (23 total) Im taking 14dmg and 19dmg naked
In Beta sector: 25dmg vs 50dmg naked

How do I get to tier 2? I beat the boss after placing the beacon, but I still cannot go to planets with threat level higher than 1.

Spoiler

UFO drops molten core - use it to build metalwork station and than build Starmap Upgrade MK2 in it

Again, I found coal and some sparse metals on the surface, but once I got below the surface I've gone 30 minutes without seeing any ores.

 

[tylerf]

That feel when you reach the top of a cliff after 45 minutes of walking from the spawn point and two fire breathing birds immediately throw you to your death.

 

[TekGryphon]

Fugit, I'm gonna delete my character and start over.

I liked this planet, too Cute monsters and green grass.

Closest I can get is Vast, Immortal Suns which seems to have the same chorus. The exact track used in the video doesn't seem to be on the soundtrack or in the experimental tracks. That said it is 2am and I may have gone slightly deaf.

 

[Kinitari]

GAF server seems to be down?

It's weird because that track is in the game. I heard it many times. Not sure where it is.

 

[aY227]

(Edit: almost) No ores generated below surface beta/jungle

 

[Sarcasm]

I don't know what the most effective way for weapons....

 

[TekGryphon]

(Edit: almost) No ores generated below surface beta/jungle

What do you mean by beta/jungle? You mean the ore issue is specific to jungle planets? So I just need to mine enough surface coal to move to a forest planet?

I really dont know right now - but there is HUGE difference comparing to planets in alpha sector. I will start checking other types of planets.

Maybe its a feature not a bug

 

[Aquamarine]

I just want to say this game is amazing. I've been playing it for about 50 hours now through a few wipes. Very, VERY fun.

Planetarium is the title of the track. It's not in the soundtrack download but it's in the Starbound files (assets > music) as an .ogg file. You can play it with VLC media player.
