KM Scorchio posted:Just found some dudes all quality 10 tungsten/aluminium/steel autism boat unattended and escorted it back to my shipyard to strip it down for parts. I left him the frame with his reviver and a tin atlas core floating around for him to hopefully revive on when he logs back in. Game is good. Wouldn't mind a content patch though. That's the best kind of heist. Why wouldn't you just remove his reviver and take the boat for yourself though?

I'm glad they added those later, so that now there's far more standard islands and the trapped islands will be in the minority.

I don't get the boohooing about them adding more interesting aspects for island exploration. Landing and clicking on the same old garbage cans and chests right out in the open with no complexity or danger (beyond rear end in a top hat mantas) is dull as everlasting poo poo. Besides, currently the island creator is loads more fun than the game itself. Hopefully I can cause other goons some pain in my designs. Win/Win.

Because the current combat of bugs bumping you or whatever is super janky and unfun, and a laser turret that 1-shots you seems just about as bad.

You are voicing your opinion about things that are not even in the beta yet, much less tested. Feel free to voice your opinion as loudly as you like. As it stands, there is virtually nothing of substance that sets one island apart from another.

They should also bring back specific metals for islands, where players would favor one island over another and sectors had their own hotspots

If the turrets are like other intensive gameplay assets, there's going to be a limit on how many you can stick on an island. Fields of spikes might be a thing though.

That's never going to change because everyone has the same set of tools and 90% of the people who will make the islands will be garbage at making islands.

They only add like the top 10% of islands to the game though. Most of those seem pretty unique to me.

I haven't played this test, but every time they update the creator they seem to screw something up with old islands, so the glitchy ones are probably older islands that the creator never updated. I've got 2 islands in the game and I still haven't fixed them from the last databank update. Hopefully on release they'll do another pass at approving what islands get in.

nah i mean like, i've seen an island that is literally just heaps of poorly coordinated assets glommed together, it looks ugly as gently caress the creator is actually really good at setpieces from what i've seen, they just get lazy with the other 95% of the island

Trust me, I cannot fathom how some islands made it through screening. I guess they really did not have a very large pool to choose from of any quality. Still, more option/tools/elements are a good thing. At the very least in the testing phase to see what works and what doesn't.

Man I just went back to check on my first island, and some update screwed up all the grass on it too. I spent ages placing all those bits of grass and weeds and stuff to look nice, now half of them are gone and the rest look different. I hope that new grass painting tool will make up for it.

So I found a quiet little cave complex with an opening to the outside big enough to allow me to build a ship in there and fly it out. Was pretty cool being able to build in relative safety. Threw together a new ship as I was getting tired of my old design and wanted a something smaller for just running around T4 in, pretty pleased with how she came out (definitely has something of an X-Wing vibe). http://imgur.com/a/mQbEk Out of interest, has anyone gathered any data on which wood types are best for engine propellers and cannon ammo loaders? All the charts I've found on materials only mention metal. KM Scorchio fucked around with this message at 09:16 on Jul 27, 2017 |

There was a chart on the wiki but apparently it was out of date so being updated as of a few days ago (they completely removed the old one for some reason)

People have done it for metal but not wood. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lUYA9dYvxLYVlJUQ6GRrWMl-0ptKT3ASj3-rnhmYr3U/edit#gid=855674877 https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gC2QtSINylJelrvFVG37HzfOFpBlyITBOyZteGfZDkI/edit#gid=1568854898 https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cUHxiOTPgDWxLzJOLGpnrfjLxQUY-MnqEGsn58QDdfg/edit#gid=1926050317

I did a little testing on wood. The actual differences seem very small so just go with hemlock for weight. And if you have comparable metal options use them instead cause the metal bonuses dwarf the wood bonuses.

How does it handle turning-wise, or do you bank when need be? Cannot wait till we can have wired cannons that (hopefully) we can keybind. I would be scared to take that out without a sail, being manabait.

And a rear cannon as I was feeling a bit vulnerable in the posterior. She's about 2200kg now and does about 28 knots. Just got myself in position for a solo Sandwall attempt prior to downtime, will take her across when servers come back up. Wish me luck!  http://imgur.com/a/R7nOG

Got this game after watching a bunch of streams, and man is the emergent gameplay fun. I'm really enjoying the variety of player interactions I've had too, compared to Rust. Me and a friend had been slowly trying to get through a windwall but our dingy was just too light until we stumbled on an abandoned ship with an upgraded sky core. We scrapped the whole frame, switch cores, re-used their engines and easily made it through - then got our poo poo hosed by mantas. Cue a desperate crash landing with our sky core making GBS threads the bed just as we get over an island that looks like a giant erect dong. We spend about an hour upgrading to metal panels, upgrading guns and engines, etc until we're happy and confident enough to set off again. Not two minutes into the flight a manta eats through a panel we forgot to repair and rips out our fuel tank, engines cut out and the shitlord manta chirps off happily, fucker. At that very moment I notice another ship a good few hundred feet below us, and maybe just within grappling distance if I sprint off, while my friend stays to watch the ship. Meanwhile, the other player is happily minding his own business when a body flies past the port bow, hooks on, spins round the hull twice, and faceplants on to the deck. So now both of us are expecting that the other is about to shoot a bunch of lead, but instead we exchange confused pleasantries, and an hour long salvage and rescue of my friend and the stranded ship. This game is great.

So do you absolutely need a friend or two to get by in this game? Can you just do things solo, or is it just not possible because of reason X?

When you start off on the floating castle tutorial, are there specific things you're looking for for getting the knowledge points or do you just grind out scanning everything to get the 50-60 knowledge for ship building?

Bossa posted:-Atlas cores have gained an on-interact ability to send a pulse through the whole ship. The pulse will detach all grappling hooks and climbers, and prevent grappling or climbing for a brief period. This function has a cooldown and uses an atlas shard. First patch with more content boys. And finally ships can protect them selfs. Gear up and lets take to the skyes ARRRRRG!!!!
