Arven posted:Tile capturing was never going to work out outside of some kind of scheduled instanced battle that both sides got to join equally, which would also suck. Actually, that would work really well for this game. It is supposed to be about moving around as nomads and tile claiming really doesn't play into those mechanics. Their territory stuff should go straight back to the drawing board.

It also means locking down a tiule becomes a temporal thing, you own it while your doing your resource extraction then move on or accept the vulnerability of people staying. There's no poing pre-capping a tile to attack someone else.

That's a really good idea. I wonder how long it will take them to consider something like that.

So they introduced merchants that sell a limited number of tablets (around 15 tabs per merchant) for something like 5k flots each. You can do quests and easily get thousands of flots. This led to proxies already being built and claiming medium oases within 24 hours. And Wingsuits being sold for 10k flots in some places, and whatnot nakieon fucked around with this message at 18:49 on Oct 23, 2020 |

Looks like they changed it so you can damage walkers with any type of ammo now, and you can pack up solid bases (im guessing that means stone) on the carrier walker. Both probably good changes at it makes you actually able to fight and gives a reason to make on map bases.

Their thinking that people will just ignore fireflies and small bases is pretty naive. People are gonna load up on cheap balista ammo and just destroy everything they come across.

Big fan of the changes put forth today except for Upkeep system. It looks like upkeep is not similar to Rust in that it appears linear (Rust has "tiers" and it gets worse upkeep as you build past breakpoints) and is about 1/3 of the base's build costs every 24 hours. In other words, every 72 hours it costs the same as rebuilding the entire base if you leave it out during that entire time.

I guess you always do have the option of just packing it up and parking it off the map? Maybe they want structures to be less sprawing and more purposeful. That still seems really high though.

This is still a survival game where "Breaking poo poo just because I can, and gently caress you" is common. I can't even list the number of times I've expended more resources than I got back in loot to poo poo on someone in Ark/Atlas/Whatever.

The Silur walker is a base carrier, while the panda is a walker carrier.. Silur works off torque alone and can physically deploy into a huge up to stone base I think? The panda idk... Only water and torque in the silur, no gear slot no cargo, and no deployable hooks to get on faster that I know of [new]Ancient City maps are merchant maps basically, they have windmills that you can fix, harpoon and spin up that turns a screw and brings up a possibly decent loot pile. Up to a couple tabs I think and carapice boots someone said they got? Not sure. The city maps also spawn the random merchants that sell the mods and tabs like was previously mentioned. Mods are around 200 flots each from the merchants. The rupus in these maps also apparently have a possibility of dropping wingsuits. I haven't gotten any myself but yeah its possible so cool. [new]Volcano maps everything is scorched so ash and charcoal harvest.... [new]Meteorite maps have iron everywhere and bone frags on the ground.. There are auctions on tiles for boxes that you open and can have up to like 12 tablets I think? Maybe 40? I don't know the number but its somewhere stupid high. You bid against other players for these.... As for people ignoring firefly walkers and small bases.. Absolutely not true. My 1x3 medium wood base with small chest and basic tools was broken into within 3 hours of me putting it down and everything was cracked open. It was put in a hidden place inaccessible by large walkers.. and my firefly just got wiped by 5 dudes last night with wingsuits after they high block boxed me in. flick3r fucked around with this message at 19:47 on Nov 11, 2020 |

https://store.steampowered.com/newshub/app/903950/view/2943627152470063572 The wipe is happening this Sunday, November 22nd, at 5 PM CET (11 AM EST / 8 AM PST). We have some goons looking into playing some small group PvP stuff. Nothing big and super organized like the first season. We haven't really decided much on things yet, but I figured I would give a couple days notice.

cmdrk posted:Is this game gonna pick up at all after the wipe? seems like only a couple hundred playing these days. It likely will for a bit, but it's going to get stomped into a few hundred players again because the megazergs are still coming back and they never added any real kind of capping on big zergs like that. No hard tile caps or anything like that. Uganda has 200+ members ready to go for example and will dominate EU and they are working on NA-East recruitment for their NA division. I believe the big clans that had the blue donut in NA-West are coming back as well so NA-East is going to be a big melting pot again. Should be fun for at least a few weeks!

I've edited the OP to be more accurate about the game. I've also changed the 3rd post to list some of the more important changes of season 2 and how they fix some of the pain points of the game. I don't know if we are going to revive the Live Rupu Cams Discord. We have no clue how many people are actually going to come back to the game and play. We'll probably just use the Bad Games Crew Discord and see how it goes. Bad Games Crew: https://discord.gg/MAA8nTD

Played around for a bit, the resource change seems good. I was able to craft the little base walker in about an hour completely solo with barely any tools. You can use the convert into base walkers to make stone Encased torque windmills btw, as the foundation is on a platform so you can go out and down, making them tall enough
