There are lots of cool improvements and changes being made over time. The manipulator can be upgraded and last I heard it will dig up all materials and upgrades are just to make it cooler, and dropped the changed of need to unlock the privilege of diggin up iron in the first place so you can actually make that anvil. I am just horribly obsessive over the combat/survivability progression, as it has been, still is, and most recently stated plans for the future. EDIT: vvv See, stuff like this is why I'm still looking forward to next stable in REDACTED BY TIME TRAVELERS. So much cool game, and new toys being added. I'm just very down on the whole "+1 enemies will kill you in 3 hits, forever. If you have the very bestest armor for that tier you will survive 7 hits... Now, go dig up your FTL parts on the moon, where you will need to use Snow Gear instead of armor to survive the cold temperatures... Wait, poo poo." dev plan as most recently stated on the combat end. Though I figure eventually it will get tuned up better once the beta process is not entirely in a mode where the devs have suggested you activate godmode in the past. That could be skewing research numbers on combat, just maybe. No matter how polished or not the next Stable is, it should hopefully provide some better long term basis for beta tweaks than nightly.

A further upgrade lets it pick up liquids.

Dominic White posted:They're holding off until releasing a new 'Stable' build until everything is working properly, because they don't want to break mods every few weeks. I think that having a new version break mods every few weeks would truly suck, but at this rate it's more like they don't want to break mods more than once a year. By the time the new stable is out, how much of the previous version's mod developers will have moved on to a newer, more troll-friendly Early Access game? I really am looking forward to more of the game, along with the various different ways of progressing through it - like farming or whatever. Maybe they will add a character class that lets you harass the colonies on each planet, some kind of Pirate or... Space Troll.

I thought the whole point of building the modding system right in was that mods don't break with every update, so long as the mod hooks haven't changed fundamentally.

And here's the thing: They HAVE changed the hooks fundamentally. They've done a major engine rewrite since last stable release , and now they've got that whole custom HUD layer that allows completely custom UI interaction with the game world and vice versa. They've got to get that all squared away before they roll it out to the public. That scanner mod that they showed as an example was pretty amazing. If that's what they're just using as a first-gen suggestion, the sky is the limit once the new system is fully implemented.

i'm not sure why that conversion mod went in the direction of mmo grinding and giant damage zones that fly at you constantly. poor choice, imo.

TangentEnigma posted:I am going to pretend this game does not exist for another year and maybe by then it will be done enough to live up to all the hype. It was nice looking but completely lacking in depth and polish and actual content the last time I tried it. Ok I only waited 6 months and so far I can't tell that anything has changed. Wasteland 2 was pretty good though. I am glad that I did not play the beta.
