I like the caveman tier.

I actually wish you couldn't just jump around with wood, your ship should be busted so you're forced to tech advance to the point where you can repair it.

If you want jet packs out the gate the play another game I guess?

Ok, so I've currently finished the first set of quests and I've crafted my way up to a gold pickaxe and some silver armor. I'm not sure what to do now beyond exploring (I still don't know what I need to do to refuel my ship) the only pressing question I have atm is how do I survive the underground heat?

Coal, wood.

(Those fuel the ship, not protect you from underground heat.)

First question: no, without mods all the beds have the same regen.

Second question: right click with planks.

Do you count the interrogation table as a bed?

Have they implemented ocean planets and submersibles yet?

I don't know how submersibles are going to work because the current water mechanics stress the server out a lot whenever it's flowing somewhere.

I really need bigger ships and customizable ships to be an official feature. Unlike Terraria where you could build a base for yourself, the coordinate and fuel mechanics mean that your ship needs to be your base, and it needs to be so much more. My beta feedback is that it's the most important feature currently missing in the un-modded game..

I really want to play this, but I'm trying to hold off until they're past the character wipe phase. Do we know if there will be more wipes? If so, have they given a timeframe for when characters might be safe?

Yes, probably several.

No.

I agree that extremely cold planets are terrifying, though. There's nothing quite like farting along with one arrow of negative temperature, occasionally pausing to warm up by a fire, and then having night fall and suddenly the screen is white and you're freezing while standing literally inside of your bonfire and you panic and mash the teleport button but it's too late and your frozen corpse explodes the instant it arrives on your teleport pad.

This makes for a great horror movie.

Are all game communities this dramatic? I just play the game because I like playin' games.

The short answer is yes.

For everything any developer does in a game there will be vocal minorities proclaiming that the world is ending, the game is dying, it used to be so much better in some fictional golden days, etc.
