Yeah but hold up guys, the real question here is: have they stopped character wipes yet?

I believe they have stopped the wipes, unless you opted into the circumstances where they do, in fact, occur. (PS: Dat Canyon biome)

So, I haven't played this since the Beta launched and have been feeling sort of a loose desire to come back - what are the major features that have been added in in the mean time? Namely, are the Starkids in yet? This is really the most important bit.

I may have missed something in the dev posts, but is 1.0 going to have the full (tier 1-10) experience or will the only fleshed out tiers still be 1-4?

The tech tiers are going through a pretty radical redesign: the last 6 tiers are going to be split up into 3 'archetypes' for strength, agility, and magic. Biomes will also have tiers and will be roughly 'gated' by having access to technology that eliminates environmental hazards or with ship upgrades. They've said they want to have all this implemented for 1.0.

If you prefer, refer to it as 'sufficiently advanced technology' Or whatever makes the space medieval robots work.

Chucklefish Blog posted:In a technical sense, Wayward Tide is kind of cool for Chucklefish, because it represents a radical departure from the way starbound was developed, and if it works out it may very well be the way that Chucklefish makes games from now on. It’s entirely written in Haskell, primarily based on Functional Reactive Programming, and it’s really really cool. I would tell you more about it but I’m sure Palf will want to tell everyone more about it at some point in the near future.

A proper explanation would be a book thick  But suffice to say that Haskell enforces constraints on the programmer designed to make the program work in an "ideal" fashion, but which makes it extremely hard to write applications that are generally pretty messy, like games.

They've said they want to have all this implemented for 1.0. So literally terraria on the equipment upgrades. But terraria has magic, so let's just add it in! Also that september 5th update is the most ridiculous update they've ever put up. Sounds like when one of the coders on my team is making technical excuses to the board for a showstopper bug in production. nerdz fucked around with this message at 22:06 on Sep 9, 2014 |

When they say magic, I assume they mean guns and other tech things that take energy. I hope.

Don't worry guys. Magic will probably not be suprior to tech in every way. If they stick with "A fully charge staff can kill a single even level enemy, with a long recharge" outlook. A similarly powerful gun can kill anywhere between 1.5 to 2 even level enemies if you do not miss! Guns are still superior to magic! Ugh, serious talk though I wouldn't mind too much if it was MAGIC magic, or just called that and styilized with fancy staffs and crystals to go with the link outfits and wizard hats and fairy prinsessses in tutus nobody has a problem with for dress up. poo poo's crazy already in this "Scientific" space game. Main problem with introducing magic in such things or "Psychic powers" or whatever equivalent is that most times, it just gets used for whatever the gently caress the authors or developers want with no limitations from FTL communications to 'And that's how I put my disembodied soul into a clone body and tore a star in half' while the "Science" stuff is held back by "It wouldn't be realistic, or practically attainable becayse  " and need to actually explain poo poo.Just look at the loving Force off in Star wars, for example. No see you'll chop off your own dick if you try to use a laser sword because it has no counterweight, or something. You also aren't able to build one without it exploding because you need THE FORCE to make the precise placement of the focusing crystal, in the weapon you use by smashing it repeatedly into things. But these nearly identical Light Foils you can use and build just fine. Except when they are just as strong as a lightsabre and not a hong kong knockoff that deals slightly less damage, then you need the force again because gently caress YOU. I got no issues with batshit crazy stuff in a game setting, so long as it doesn't go "Nuh uh, only I'M allowed to do the cool things. Also computers shut off if I'm around, because gently caress your cell phone".
