Is it done yet?

How badly did chuckelfuck mess the game up?

Literally everything.
Some people will say the porn is good, but most of it is furshit.

As if there'd be any non-furshit of it.

it was supposed no be a planet exploring game, they turned the whole ship thing into a fancy loading screen and have a crappy non scifi like equipment, a bow in 2700? a hoe for crops? be creative dammit

where the hell is the ship battles?

chucklefish.wikia.com/wiki/The_timeline_of_Chucklefish's_false_promises_and_lies

...

Not even porn saves this shit.

Serious answer:
They didn't have any clear idea what they were doing. They had a vague idea, but no idea how to actually develop that game. How many times has the combat been completely reworked? What about the game progression? How many times has one type of grind been turned into another? How much time did they spend on adding cosmetic shit while the game was still unoptimized and barely even working?

But there's one thing that does make it somewhat less shittier:
moddb.com/mods/the-aryan-race/downloads/the-aryan-race-v06
Literally the only thing worth doing on this game is playing the aryan mod and even that's fucking broken, still waiting for their release, other than that the whole game is shallow and cancerous.
>>>/vm/242

and I can't even fucking remove it. the option of not having a pet is not an option.

is there more images?

also

...

...

...

lol, you think its worth going back to beta just to play this shit? what version did it last work on?

Hell if I know. Still seems to be at version .06

They spent more time sexually harassing Molly than making the game.

...

weren't the goons also involved in this?

the rabbit hole seems deeper then just retarded fatass developers not doing jackshit all day.

Yeah, they even had their own dedicated section on the forums.

They just got money for emigrate to London and avoid taxes.

You know, I never saw an explanation for this picture. What the fuck is going on there? Some kind of feminist bullshit "social statement" or something?

This is just a 2 ponyfuckers. Need explanation?

I think this game is fun, my autism of exploring planets, and terraforming the Elysium Planets and shit is coming true. I spent money on this early on is the downside though. This was before I knew how gay Chuckle Fish was. Its better, and has more thing to do than No mans game at least.

The music is pretty comfy too

jfmsuf

I feel this will apply to a certain other upcoming game too.

Is there a way to replace the normal logo with this in the startup sequence?

...

that is what you get when you have the aryan mod installed, or so what the other user implied on /vm/

...

>Aryan mod only mod worth playing when it finally updates

...

But user, you still have the followng race mods like:

:^)

...

...

Thats the joke, the worst part of autism prevailed. All of them are updated to the current version, but Aryan isnt.

The only decent mods that works with 1.0 are the mech, CS:GO weapons and any other one that unfucks the game.

Even then there's STILL fuckall for content, you're locked into a linear progression tree with absolutely zero emergent gameplay or goals to carry out at your own discretion, only Chucklefuck's extremely narrow idea of how you're supposed to play the game.

And Tiy was part of the Terraria team before he made this disaster of a game so he has no excuse either.

Aryan's still in development afaik.

For fuck's sakes, even Toby Fox was able to put out a game more functional and smooth playing, even if The gameplay was a vehicle for the plot. Sorry if I don't know any more examples, but i'm sure they exist.

That's pretty edgy

Can't have a nazi mod without gas now can you?

the gameplay is fucking terrible and the beginning of the game sucks

its far worse than terraria

do you know where you are?

Goons, lies.

not having gas would make the mod historically accurate

...

When are they releasing it for the new version?

I'm pretty sure that came from a reddit meetup, but that picture's pretty old so I might be remembering wrong.

Can you build and pilot mechs yet?
I remember it was advertised but not implemented.

Just gonna leave this here to answer your question.

Isn't the Aryan Race SAIL Ben Garrison?

Someone tell me what the fuck is going on, is it because Summer, dev shilling, or some of you actually enjoy this train wreck?

I call shilling.

it's from 4chan, the whole mass ban after the CorrectRecord shit

Its a mod

Also,

Yes but a mod (pic related) made better ones.


How are Nazis edgy?

Oh fuck it then, not even pirating.
Goddamned ARMA has mech mods too, it's not fucking same.
Back to EDF I guess.

You have a bunch of tanks and mechsuits in the Aryan Race mod.

It's the only correct way to play he game anyway.

is there a link for this mod? I don't want to get it from the shitty workshop.

Ex-Terraria devs for Starbound did fuckall for Terraria, there's a reason they're not on the dev team anymore.

Wasn't the cocksucker who put Final Fantasy V sprites and got shitcanned for it part of Starbound's dev team?

The other download links I could find was from the chucklecuck forums, (which is outdated) and the Nexus (also outdated). Sorry fam.

Blue did that.


Care to explain?

because steam's front page was recently covered with this starbound shit, obviously it raised a few bars.

Is blue that megautist we made fun of during development of Terraria?

can someone link the source?

>No Amber fanatic archeology Mantises Especially now that fossil collecting is a thing now, I wish I could staff a museum with the fucks

Template thread. Hide and sage.


Summer + Retards who like to shitpost and get guaranteed replies + Shilling + Retards who never followed the development and genuinely think it's a good game now. A perfect storm of retardation.

:^)

As short as possible. Basically Hillary has her own internet squad of college kids and the like, some paid some not, who shill for Hillary. Now this was discovered on halfchan and ever since mods there have banned discussion and uncovering as "raiding/doxing". Not to mention the blatant ctr shills saying Hillary is the best while this is going on and easily showing that they have no idea what an imageboard is or how to pretend to be an oldfag. Sage for offtopic.

But how can you sage in it and let everybody know you don't like the thread if you've hidden it?

Here you go

Failed Tumblr convention known as Dashcon. The image is one of the pictures taken of the event.

Is there anywhere that actually talks about it?
I'd like to get in on some discussion if there is any on a chan, just not halfchan.
Sage for offtopic. and for garbage thread.

Ignore me, I suck cocks.

...

Dashcon was 2 years ago, the picture is 3 years old.

Found the actual source. It was a picture taken at a brony harlem shake video.

They messed up by not delivering half of what they talked about.

The parts they put in are decent. Nowhere near as polished as Terraria. There are many thing Terraria does better, and a few things Starbound does better… Like the ability to use any block as a background wall, or the two handed combat system.

I've never felt such a strong mix of disgust, and greater disgust

Apparently that gal there did some Velma cosplay on 4chan back in the day.

...

they fucked up pretty hard. the time and money spend is disproportionate to what weve been given, but its enjoyable at the moment.
id like more drama aboard space ships, but currently its just not-terraria where you visit different biomes and explore dungeons.
exploring and building is fun at least, but some of the building materials take too fucking long to break unless your matter gun is super jacked.

That's a nice finding. I love how these stories piece together, and I like it more when they lead to porn.

...

are there any mods for that ?
that piece of shit is crawling near you and blocks clicking on stuff, so annoying

...

this is only acceptable if you fell asleep and your game was on multiple times or you're a modder.

...

There actually is a reasoj for that. The SB dev team started pushing this whole thing about people not being able to criticize the game if they had so many play hours on it and the game was perfect because so many people played it for so long. It then came to light that they programmed some bullshit to where ti will register more time played that actually was by hiding the launcher.

There are many reasons why this game is flawed.

Jesus, that's probably the scummiest way to artificially boost play-time I've ever heard.

is there a working vanilla mech mod for 1.0?

That's really pathetic.

Shitty devs made the development cycle a complete mess. As for the game itself, it's fine. Better than Terraria, imo

i just had a hylotl girl ask me to make a house for a human, so i did, and then she had that human make 2 "obey signs" to put up in her room, and while i was doing that she ran over to and is sleeping in this humans bed.
what a lewd chain of events

First of all what is this game about

Secondly is it worth a pirate?

You play as the last "Protector" which is some kind of guild of galactic heroes, and a tentacle beast fucks up your homeworld so you're stuck out in space. There's a whole story but mostly you just go around exploring planets, building comfy houses and expanding them into colonies for NPCs that you recruit.

Definitely worth a pirate although it'll make modding a bit more difficult and you definitely want mods for this, they add a lot.

Thanks for the reply

Last question
Are there any "must have" mods?

Frackin Universe, basically doubles the content in the game and adds about 20+ new biomes.

Thanks

Also nice triples

...

improved containers
skippable cinematics
frackin music
earths finest

I havent ran into too many issues modding it
community.playstarbound.com/resources/categories/starbound.21/
is the site it get quite a few mods off of that havent proven to be much of a issue. Though I imagine a vast majority more are on steam workplace. But Fracken verse and all the other mods mentioned here are there as well.

wow

I have 54 hours in the game. I've played thorugh it with friends only twice, neither playthrough constituted more than 10 hours

Can they do anything that isn't disgusting

For me, mostly the whole adding a story, quests, and all that jazz. Unremovable ship pet, too.
Ruined my RP type jazz.

Too bad, because between you and me, I rather liked the thing. It didn't have a lot of content, but it was fun playing the qt bird graverobber. Up until they forced you to be some kind of fancy superhero employee errand boy.

Each race was gonna have their own story line.


Are bird tits really that popular here?

No idea. I'm just a raving xenophile.
They partly ruined that bit, though, sadly. The whole 'you're part of human protectorate' deal had me in a rather large panic, as proper alium cultures with proper alium architecture and so on is one of my larger selling points.
Fortunately, outside the main story, you don't have that worry. But, that's mostly because outside the main story, fuck all happens. You just run around place-to-place, talking to NPCs who literally have only one line they repeat every time.

Just a bunch of BS with shitty devs, they do a shit load of things better than Terraria and I hope Re-Logic get off their asses and outdo them, but I sincerely doubt that such a thing would happen.

I found this cool mansion that was filled with ghosts and I've started restoring it and turning it into my base.

Turning emptied bases into your homes is probably my favorite thing to do.

Did they add in the neotokyo style underwater cities?

This is also the same dev team that used 4chan's /vg/ board to get their game started in the first place. They pretended to be normal posters interested in a kickstarter game and posted generals nonstop for weeks until other people caught on and took over for them.

Yes. Pretty neat, if a dab over-the-top you ask me. I guess it's necessary, but still, giant airlocks and rather large buildings for not really that much space inside

so, is this a shill thread or people suddenly have fish-like memory spans?

Half true. The launcher wouldn't hide, but it wasn't obvious unless you looked at the taskbar, and would count towards in-game time.

Both

we just enjoy hating shitty things and steam's frontpage was advertising the release of this game which reached 1.0

I think it was an appropriate time to discuss this piece of shit to remind us of how cancerous early access really is, because this game was one of those games that took advantage of the broken early access ideology back when everyone was still fucking stupid and throwing their money away because of hype.

Did they add any functionality to run settlements?

Biggest fuck up since Tribes:A got the speed nerf.

Oh, and also the entire game is much much worse than Terraria in every single way except lighting.

I'd say mostly the first, but a healthy bit of "it's actually somewhat okay, but they keep making it worse/acting like massive fagots".

Definitely never give your money to these gooks.

TECHNICALLY they did, just like how they TECHNICALLY delivered on some of the content they promised, it's extremely shallow and dull. They move in like npc's in terraria and species depends on the type of furniture you lay down, you might get a merchant of some sorts and they'll give you money or random items to pay rent, that's pretty much it.

Has anybody tried out that fractured universe overhaul yet? I feel like those are the only type of mods that can actually make this game what it was supposed to be.

I liked the old storyline where the tentaclebeast only fucked up future Earth and you're just a displaced wanderer trying to get through life in a fairly indifferent galaxy.
I don't see why the player's always gotta be some grandiose paragon when a simple homesteader doing whatever works just as fine.

Worst thing too, they keep funding and publishing successful games such as Risk of Rain, Stardew Valley, and Wanderlust only to use that money for the Frankenstein that is Starbound.

...

did you see their fucking promises for this?

why isn't there a fucking spaceship weaponry/battle going on?

why is it taking forever for them to do that.

I just found one, it's pretty cool.

That's why I said some, half of the promised content is still completely missing.

So who wants to see how the damage on guns are calculated?

I feel like getting angry
go ahead

Guess what? You're right about getting angry. What you see here is how damage is calculated. From my time studying and modifying weapons If anyone looks on the starbound forums, I made the mode that cuts energy consumption on firearms by half., baseDPS here is god. When a gun is generated it picks a double(a number that has two decimal places) that's within range of those two numbers listed. What it does next is go to another one called fireTime, which is fire rate. It does the same here. Now, in order to calculated energy cost on shot, it picks a number for energyUsage and multiplies it by the fireTime generated for the gun. Now, one last thing is that each weapon has a level. Depending on the level, the raw damage output is multiplied by a certain amount. Usually by 50% for every level past 1. That's the basics.

If you have been understanding everything so far, then you understand that they completely copied Borderlands at a shallow level and failed to understand the underlying mechanic behind gun creation. Where as borderlands 1, 2 had shitty guns. had different parts and the final stats were drawn from that and in turn creating interesting loot by means of a creation process that made the whole greater than their parts. In short, you could get two guns that look completely different that have the same exact stats. By the way, generation for uncommon and rare guns are exactly the same. Also they coded the game in such a fucktarded way that if you modify the generation code for weapons, it retroactivly hits all currently generated guns.

Tl;dr Chucklefuck can't grasp game design or analysis to get out of a cardboard box.

Building seems easier than in Terraria, but I have to say, I hate how there's no good slopes.
Oh, and fucking snow planet make snow get everywhere for no reason. NPCs won't stop leaving doors open either. Drives me up the wall.

Please tell me that firetime and energyusage are on like inverse, so like fast guns cost less than slow guns
right?
I don't want to be this angry

anyone know lua scripting?

I need help with something because I suck dick at coding this shit.

Fortunately, they are Satan.

here is a question, very unrelated to your post but do you know how to fix the fucking vanilla mech, I made an activeitem which is the controller for the mech and spawned it, but I can't seem to store the damn thing. on the key again, do you have any ideas on how to make it store back to the controller instead of being frozen as a prop on the map?

Wasn't that because Chucklefish only had one programmer and a bunch of artists that didn't know shit about video games?

No clue off hand. Try looking at the code for the bikes. I bet they work off similar code.

you use the now greyed out mech item on it, if that's what you're asking.

Basically.

Pretty sure they spent more on community management than they did people who are actually useful in game production

Do you even know how to run a scam fam?

After Warframe's Rebecca, everyone just seems kinda worthless

I'm really curious on why they hire only one person that can do all of the work, given that that damn near anyone can make "retro" sprites. It reminds me on this canceled Nintendo game Project Hammer where they sunk about 1 million into cinematic cutscenes before they even made the game, it's just a textbook example of how not to make games.

Didn't that happen with Sonic 06 too? Like they were geared up to make this open world JRPG type thing but were told to make it into a Sonic game halfway through?
Shit's fucked man

Back on /sbg/ at halfchan years ago, there was a guy writing smut about Molly and Tiy like this.


You seriously believe Tiy can think?

what I did is this;

created a folder for the mod folder, made a replica of an existing controller from the hoverbike but replaced vehicle type with the humanmech

the behavior for the hoverbike acts like this: you spawn it, a warp animation appears and drops the vehicle near you, you can also put it away by right clicking while holding your controller and it warps back again.

that being said, the mech can't do that, once you spawn him, he works fine, the problem is that he doesn't warp back, he's just stuck their so you can't store him on your controller device anymore, so when you leave the area and come back to the same spot the mech disappears, and your controller is fucking useless now so that means you'll have to remake a new controller from scratch.

my point is, if I can take that function that allows storing the mech into the controller device like the hoverbike. if so, how can one achieve such a thing? do I fuck with the lua?

Wait, you mean that actually happened? That makes Sonic 06 even worse than it is. Shits really fucked, no matter how big or small a budget is that isn't how a game should be made.


There had to be some planning in the game, and with all the money the game made you'd think they'd scrap all the "artists" and hire more than one programmer, even if he was a John Carmack there's no way the game would end up decent with just one dude.

see what that mech mod did if it had to do anything special


I thought that Molly was an artist?


weren't a lot of the hires friends and stuff?

that mech mod actually wrote an entire code, its XS or whatever the name was, guy does 10x the work then your average starbound developer

That would make me wonder how much they were paid.

Fuck if I know. I just used fucking with weapon generation as an excuse to learn JSON. I hear Lua's easy to pick up, so maybe I might try my hand at it since I'm already familiar with c++ and java.


No, Molly is the community manager. On Rebecca, she single handedly made the community what it is now IIRC. She also banned Warbros leader because she didn't like him and also turned the dev team against the clan when they used to be in such good terms. She worse than Molly because she's bad in the malicious way instead of laziness.


With how I found out the weapon code works, I'd probably have to do the same thing to get any semblance of serious re balancing going.

Could you elaborate on that? That sounds like an odd thing to track and I'd hope it doesn't regenerate the guns every time, even if the code hasn't changed.

My guess is that the generation is based on multipliers of certain numbers, so each gun has a different multiplier, maybe?

Let me put it like this. Lets say baseDps range is 9-10. You get a gun that has a dps of 9.5 right? Let's say we change baseDps of the class to 15-20. Well, now when we start up the game the gun has had it's dps rerolled into that range.

Oh man, this makes things a million times better, I thought she was of value.


Every time

Yeah but she cute so it's aight

To add, it might even change other things as well arbitrarily like the gun's energy per shot or fire rate but I haven't tested to be sure of such a thing.

Uh, talking about Rebecca
Molly's trash

So what's the point in the other bits of armor at 6 tier?
Seems to vary from race to race, making, for some races, one set completely useless compared to the other two.

I picked it up for the first time since very early beta or alpha. Really liked the setup for the game, though I've heard all races start the same way which is lame as fuck.

But after a few hours it gets really stale. With Terraria there are all these little items you can find that you have no way of knowing about beforehand unless you check the wiki. With Starbound, you see the tech shop and the vehicle shop and see all the things you can get, and it's really not much.

They just totally went in the wrong direction with it. Sad.

tbh it makes sense that you'd hire more artists than programmers in a procedurally generated game, given that most of the programmatic content is, well, generated.
The role of the programmer, beyond the general generation system and overall game environment, is that of creating base classes, and setting ranges for them. And I guess identifying the valid min/max ranges.
Identifying optimal ranges is really done primarily by playtesting, for which programming experience is neither necessary or even really useful (given a sufficient playtesting environment).
And assuming most objects can be generalized such that there are relatively few base-classes, then new-types, from the programmer's side, should be next to trivial additions. From the player's point of view, they're likely more affected by the aesthetics of it (a fire-arrow isn't a fire-arrow until the target bursts into flames, and the arrow is lit. It _is_ a fire arrow even if there's no mechanic for DOT damage when burning, though obviously it made better with the mechanic)
.
Thus, most of the time spent should really have been by playtesting and artists; not the programmers.

At best, the problem is not that more money was spent outside of programmers. It simply was that not enough money was spent on programmers to meet baseline requirements.

are you implying that the game rerolls your weapon stats every time you reboot the game, regardless of modification to the codebase?
Because otherwise, if it rerolls if and only if the dps calculation changes, then they must be checking for it. Which implies this is deliberate.
And actually I can imagine this being left in from testing

you expected something good?

mod called purchasable pets will remove your starting pet

i already bought the game. im sure plenty of others have as well, which is why people are so damn salty in the first place. so i might as well play the damn thing. i actually dont have anything better to do.

I avoided the game due to this shit, but then heard it was "Complete"

so I bought it, I could never really get into Terraria.

But I'm actually enjoying this, feels more like a game instead of a 2D minecraft.

game studios should be required to put out team pictures so you can instantly know how bad the game will be.

They had an entire hidden board on their official forums for SA goons to insult the other people on the forums and when that came to light they just went "hurr it was just a joke, guys!". That was the end of the line for me.

Eww
At least most of us have the excuse of buying it when it showed promise and didn't know the devs were terrible, incompetent people.

The fact that it's like Terraria with actual weapon animations is enough for me.

But out of curiosity, how much of what was promised was put into the "complete" game.

For me its the ambient sounds and music instruments with abc files that makes me kind of like it. I did buy it way back when it first came out though. I had no idea.

Why is there random freezing lag type shit on a single player game?
Trying to run the Ark lot, and I keep getting froze, causing me to die.

on the other hand he didnt buy it based on blind trust and hype

Fair enough, he bought it on shit tastes
I actually bought it because, at the time, I thought it was fine the way it was. I never buy early access I don't think would be acceptable as is.

Terraria had weapon animations, but I guess they were rather shoddy.
Still, combat in Starbound is just flatly awful. Partly due to the rather dull enemies, I think. Though, weapons also feel sorely empty. Only fun weapon was the flamethrower sword.

Developers. The biggest fuckup on their part is lack of coherent vision for the game and a solid roadmap for development.


Do you have the whole set?

Played it with a couple friends for about 30 hours. For a $15 game, it was certainly worth it. Music and art was nice, gameplay was decent, and there was enough shit around the planets to keep the illusion of exploration going for most of that time. I know the cool thing to do is to say it is a game with literally no redeeming qualities and that anybody who plays it should sudoku, but there are definitely worse games out there with much higher prices. As somebody who didn't pay attention to it before release, I don't really have a problem with it.

Infinite worlds means you don't give a shit about any world.

In Terraria you have the one world, getting the most out of that world actually matters (assuming you don't cheat with other saves and shit, obviously)

Downloaded the latest build. It's not that bad compared to early builds, some changes made it better. It's still a mediocre game.
The only criticism I don't get about the game is how it looks. It looks really good, actually, but I keep reading anons saying it looks like shit, and I'm going to assume that's because they don't like "pixelshit", am I right?

How? It looks better and has more content.

I think it's just because hating Starbound has become a meme after the fuckery Chuckleshit subjected everyone to. It feels like "losing" to acknowledge that the game isn't a complete disaster, or something.

I liked Starbound, but there is no question in my mind that Terraria is a far better "game", if only because the bosses and progression is done much better. In Starbound, all bosses are done through some weird instance system and you don't really get anything by beating them other than a chest with some random crappy loot at the end. There is also a major disconnect between the bosses and the rest of the game. My friends and I got the final environmental protection upgrade, which is just about "beating the game" because it means all planets are accessible, before we even went into the floran instance because we just sort of ignored the main quest.

With that said, I like the exploration and visual design of Starbound much more, but it seems the "game" part of it is not nearly as good.

Most everything about Terraria is better except for exploring and the RP type shit.
Gameplay, certainly. Especially combat. Building is a tad better in Starbound, but you don't get slopes, which is a major bother.
Bosses in Terraria are much more interesting, and you get the feeling of impact against them. Starbound's bosses feel chunky, slow, and rather papery when you fight them. With the exception of Big Ape, they don't have any reaction to the damage.
Big Ape's boss fight was easily the best, for the record.

For me, main reason I end up hating it is how much promise it had, vs what was delivered. That and how absolutely terrible the devs are.

server where

Why would I want to play a less fun Terraria?

Do you people play less fun versions of other games as well?

...

So why didn't this thing ever get any good sex mods? Should be massive fur bait, and pixels are easy to edit. Where's my monster rape?

Really fucking shit optimization. Game hiccups randomly, full stop freeze if there is too many parts from an enemy attack, or too many npcs on the screen at once, or most annoying of all, too many animated blocks.
We're talking about shit GIF pixelcrap. It has no right causing that much lag.
Try to make a functioning little city and you're up a creek.

Fucking nazis everywhere. Go kill yourselves, edgy faggots. Libertarian Holla Forums should had never accepted your kind.

Now look at you, you pasting your nazi shit everywhere, the joke about hitler doing nothing wrong got too far.

I fucking bet few years will pass and you will be against video games and porn since they are "degenerate". And this will be too late for people to wake up from your shit.

...

...

The best bait, if you call it so, would be the fact that Holla Forums has such shit taste that from all games available they modded fucking starbound shit.

Alright Omni. Back to your content forum.

And guess who was the original spriter for Terraria.

Not a terrible point.

Incidentally, pol would provably ally with the bag guys in the game's shit story, as apparently the thing was going to kill everyone but humans or some jazz.
It was mentioned in a rather sharp passing, though, and with a strange sort of "you should think this is a good thing and join me!", despite my playing a bird

I figure the way it works that if it checks a weapon and see that it's stats are in the wrong range it rerolls it. I'm not sure about it rerolling on start. I haven't paid attention to that.

The one thing I like more than Terraria about Starbound is Starbound's modding potential.
That's it though, nothing else really stands out. I guess modded ocean planets are kind of comfy though.

The restriction to mining fuel on moons is dumb, could have been handled better than just "space ghosts will get you!"

Building is better, to. Personally I prefer the scale, s well.
Otherwise, yeah, shittier terraria.
'Least you have some semblance of exploration, though. That said, no point in mining much of ever in Starbound

At least Frackin' Universe fixes that and Frackin' Races gives races some actual racial abilities.

there is a mod to make it killable

I didn't realize I wanted bunnygirls in skin tight clothing but goddamn does my dick want more.
Shame that Terraria is better in almost every way and the devs behind Chucklefuck are beyond retarded. Terraria in space is a great concept and they fucked it up enitrely.


Try throwing some rope down and running in one way, framerate fucking kills itself. How is this shit so poorly optimized?

it's literally No Man's Sky but in 2D, it's an "Exploration Game" but all the planets are the fucking same
I also fully upgraded my ship but it's pretty much worthless to do that after the third upgrade because it gets so fucking bloated with space you're not going to use

oh also they expect you to translate an entire language using a thing, i did ONE and it just said
"Put the stones in the slots"
that's it
it's literally just instructions

God, that whole "I must aid space Cthulhu so he can cleanse the inferior races" thing has to be the stupidest videogame plot point in recent memory.

Hurr, we'll make this villain racist so that the player knows how much they have to hate them.


Funny. I've been describing No Mans sky as 3D Starbound with somehow less gameplay and no building.

The worst part is, it wasn't even obvious until the last second.

Oh, and it makes no sense because muh earth got ate

This is just incapable playing in this turd. 2D shit cant even run at 30-60 fps on high-end PC.

you should have seen the fucking beta, it ran on at a cinematic 5 FPS and i have a fucking I7

My I have a GTX760 overclocked and 8 cores at over 4 ghz each, and I still get 20 fps at best, but usually about 10.

Hng

I remember back on old threads anons saying how the rain effect destroyed there framerate even on high specs. Reminder that this project raised over a million dollars and they couldn't spare enough to get a fucking programmer.


Imagine if there were working porn mods

i want to till nurus soil

Release of unstable edition.

8ch.net/vm/res/242.html#1205

D'awww, I know that feeling too. Hopefully the aryan mod's gonna have kobolds in them. hopefully.


Now, with motherfucking functional tanks. Oh yeah. Bring that fucking blitzkrieg to all those filthy xenos!

Nazi kobolds when

Only thong I have seen for kobolds is sadly the cutebold shit tier type.

...

You must've fucked up somewhere, because my $500 rig runs it at 30+ just about everywhere

apparently so, seems as if the other kinds aren't as favorable or straight up furshit

nazis and furries are practically the same thing at this point

Had me do a double take

Wouldn't furries be the first to go if nazis came in power?

Wait, it got picked up again? Fuck yeah.

Does it still include the fantastic ship?

of course.

This game is in desperate need of sex mods

I've looked, it is nothing but fucking faggot shit. Dildos, gay birds, a fucking mod actually called gaybound, and a bear that can fuck you.

It's pretty telling actually.

The Protectorate is fuckin stupid, the race-specific stories were way more interesting and also gave incentive to play through as different races, at least somewhat making up for the lack of other racial bonuses

What I really hate, though, is the new SAIL dialog. Before 1.0 it sounded reasonably professional and concerned for the player character's safety in dungeons and such. Now it "measures your Peril level" in "morts" and estimates your "chances of feeling lonely and desolate" on vacant moons.

Fuck, I want to rewrite SAIL's dialog completely

And the vore mod don't forget about the vore mod.

what went wrong?………. what? went? wrong?……………………………………………………………………… XDDDDDDDDDDDD WHAT WENT WRONG XDDDDDDDDDD EBIC SIMPLE EBIC WHAT WENT WRONG OH MY GOD WHAT WENT WRONG!!!!!!!!XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Just wait for the bird ai mod to be updated

What a suprise

Hey buddy you okay there? You uh, got brain damage?

no that would be jews

man I fucking love THM

I genuinely laughed.

10/10

isnt this just the human storyline but shifted around a little? im honestly not very familiar with starbound pre release. sail is kind of a bummer, i kind of miss the themed portraits, but there is a mod to restore them.

eh? deleted?

Are you ok?

what went wrong?………. what? went? wrong?……………………………………………………………………… XDDDDDDDDDDDD WHAT WENT WRONG XDDDDDDDDDD EBIC SIMPLE EBIC WHAT WENT WRONG OH MY GOD WHAT WENT WRONG!!!!!!!!XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Haha my peanus weenus of course!

im just a little shocked that a mod would bother to delete such a benign shitpost.

Diagnosis: Fractures Cranium

You tell me.

Yeah, you can restore the AI portraits, but I still want the old dialog back, or at least something in that same tone. New SAIL is an unfunny cockgobbler

The only thing it's good for is the porn, and Novakids.
Novakids were so fucking wasted on this game. They're cool as fuck.

i dont really mind sail being a retard so much, the ship was pretty fucked up by the time you evacuated and repairing him wasnt part of the quest chain this time.


especially if youre in to the exploring aspect, just seems so fitting a setting for a cowboy.
actually, i feel like the characterization for each race is one of the games stronger points.

I was one of those idiots who bought into the hype. Should I bother installing my legit copy?

If you care to grab the frackin universe mod and the better crew mod and the mech mod you might be able to squeeze some enjoyment out of it.

After the hype I was pretty determined to get blood from that stone.

Honestly only Glitch and Novakid are any good. The rest are boring.

Apex could of been cool, but they didn't handle Big Ape well. They didn't use it as much as they could, and didn't even make it a real Big Brother kind of thing. They just had some cameras around and some statues.
It's almost like they started the idea and then dropped it, and didn't bother to take what they already did out.

Floran are average.
Oh man, the plant people are basic savages. Who would of guessed.

Avians are boring, they've got fuck all to them but one religion they did jack shit with.

The fish aren't even good weebs.

Glitch are just barely above average. It's cool to see robots being medieval, and how they talk is actually kind of creative. But they didn't even cover so many plot holes.

and I mean what's not cool about fucking sun cowboys

oh right, and humans
which they basically did jackshit with
They didn't even put us super in the future like we should be.

I was stoked for mecha knights.

Mecha knights are cool as hell and need to be used more. If only Starbound treated them right.

Is their later tier armor design still fucking awful?

starbounder.org/Glitch
Yes, apparently those are supposed to be extra brains.

why tho

God fucking dammit. You'd think with as many artists they had compared to programmers, someone would have some sense of cool design, or at least know that those things look really stupid.

You'd think that, but it's chucklefuck
so as if they'd do the smart thing.

What went wrong?

SJW cunts and faggots, that's what. You got a programmer who literally learned how to program during development of the game with books that have the most condescending bullshit for the title, you got a public relations girl who was giving out free game keys to youtubers who had 0 subscribers and huddled in a corner nearly in tears as the three lead devs of the team are walking around in their fucking underwear, you got two artists who are so pretentious they nearly describe themselves as fucking gods of the pen, you got a shitty railroaded fixed progression system which forces you to specifically go to planets A through Z in this very specific order, forcing you to fight bosses along the way in really shitty arena levels to force you to fight them the dev's way so that you can't be clever and build arenas that help you out during a boss fight because reasons.

It's like why you can't skip the dialogue in an Ubisoft game, or the gay romance in a Bioware game, because they have their heads right up their own fucking asses, huffing their own intestinal gasses, and thinking they're god king shits of indie game development.

The real question is WHAT DID NOT GO WRONG? I'd like to say "the modding" but you can't script anything, it's all prefabricated syntax that limits what you can't do, and that's why even modding went wrong.

Is there at least a modded fix? Something that replaces it with better looking armor?

Look around, good luck, I hope there is. I've just been playing in Doom Guy armor.

qt space waifus, some decent porn, the idea of Novakids.
That's literally it.

Wasn't even their own idea, two kickstarter backers get the credit for the Novakids. One guy came up with the idea for a race of beings who were born of the stars called Anodynes, and then another forum user saw this and it inspired him to create the Novakids concept. They both got forum badge awards for it.

So really considering that the space waifus and porn are fan art, and the idea of Novakids was the creation of two fans, the only thing that went right with Starbound is things that Chucklefuck didn't create.

Fuck, you're right, they didn't even bloody come up with novakids.

How do you manage to fuck up so bad that the only good things from your game aren't actually from you.

story of the game

If one brain is destroyed or damaged in combat, they can still function. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redundancy_(engineering)

Was it $1600 10 years ago and a laptop?

My $1400 machine from 2011 runs this at an easy 60fps, and I have 2 monitors and I'm running a second game.

the only time i have any slowdown is heavily populated areas like the outpost or my ship. my hardware is rather aged as well.

From 2010

The music is comfy.
And the instrument/band mechanic is fun to fuck around with.
That's it really.

Oh right, the music. I forgot about that, yeah. People being able to make their own tracks for different instruments to play together, that was pretty good.

It's comfy the first 5 times.
Then you have to turn it off, it gets incredibly repetitive really quickly.

I have to agree.

It's a fun game. It's no Terraria, but it's no MN9 either. Thankfully, this game was gifted to me a couple weeks ago, so I didn't see the trainwreck that was the development leading up to this point, and I think that I'm all the better for it.

Same here, basically. I got the game as a gift and largely stayed out of the early access shitshow. I really want to love this game, but there's just enough wrong with it that I really can't.

I want to look into the mod community for this game, it's captured my interest enough that I'd be interested in trying to add to it

That was from dashcon, tho.

What didn't go wrong? It's comfy as fuck, the soundtrack is great, pixel art is fairly solid, and the music system is good.

bump

No

>not robo traps

Sounds like heresy.

I open pretty much every spoiled image, but I never expected to see that again. I drew that like, uh, almost 3 years ago by now. Time fucking flies, and the internet never forgets.
Popped in the thread just to share my amazement, I didn't think anyone who saved that would still be posting it. You're not someone from the old /sbg/, are you? That'd be neat.

You're from old /sbg/ too? Time fucking flies man. What else did you make drawfag?

Humans were originally a Hitchhiker's Guide thing of just being random people in the space future, who'd basically been abandoned by the military and what remains of the government to fend for themselves.

Instead Earth was apparently the centre of a galactic government that was so centralised it completely collapsed the instant Earth fell.

yeah their dialogue does seem like that of tourists, which i think is an interesting take on terrans

This does not respect the robot.
It's also pretty badly drawn.

You drew this?
You need to end your life right this instant. Traps are absolute shit-tier.

Dude that's my robo waifu I never forget.

Nigga, I don't even like traps either, but get the fuck out of here with that fetish-shaming shit.

Stop being a little bitch and draw something better. You can't.

But yeah definitely from the old /sbg/ group. It's a small internet after all.

...

>>>/tumblr/

I made trash. Looking back its like, man I've improved. I don't have any of the stuff I saved, and I'd rather not post any of my current art on here. Used to not care but eh… Hope you understand

Do you know where you are? :-)

Where the fuck do you think you are?
You're on a site filled with people who legitimately want to end the lives of others based on what they're sexually attracted to. I'm not saying that's right by any means, but you should at least except something like that.

...

I am not that user but "fetish shaming" really? are you from tumblr or something?

I'm a fan of your stuff pls keep doing what you do

oh my lord

lad, the most popular board on this site is for neo-Nazis
don't be surprised if one of them tells you to kill yourself for some reason

Neo-Nazis love thicccc robots though

This only continues to reminds me of the writefag back on /sgb/ who wrote the Molly smut. I wished I saved some of it.


Yeah, I know what you mean. You just go look back at old work and it's like you wonder how people liked it.


Sad, isn't it?

mp4 related

Fitting.

that artist is a literal redditor who draws vore, feet and scat
his name's yowesephth

He also used to frequent /sbg/
R.I.P.

Why did these threads attract so many fucking degenerates (read as: average furries) back on halfchan? Thank fuck most of them either stayed there or went to different sites when the major exoduses happened.

yeah everyone claims to speak for the whole

Damn.I knew it I recognize that art from somewhere.

I can't particularity say I'm sad he's gone, honestly
I mean, a lot of people have weird fetishes, but his ones were just fucking disgusting
he could barely draw, either, he had no concept of colour theory and all his drawings looked like they were done with a mouse in MSPaint

pretty much all of 8/v/'s resident drawfags are better than he was

Well, it's more just a fondness for our mutual shithole than any reverence or fondness of art. I had loads of fun with /sbg/

Well the obviously furry coded races helped. Purge 'em all Glitch and Humans only.

Didn't chuckle fish accidentally open the dev only forums to the public and show threads making fun of the players? Anyone got caps of that?

Determined to get blood from a stone I grabbed frackin universe and the aryen mod, played for about an hour. So far so standard, did some other shit, started up the game again only for it to crash every time.

Apparently there was a mini-update at 1am, anyone else get this?

In fairness, 8/v/ only has like 11 "resident" drawfags. They all are better than yowesephth, granted, but it's not hard to be better than somebody like him.

Yeah, judging from the error I got it appears it may just be a simple JSON typo.

Yeah, confirmed frackin universe updated and broke itself.

I think you're remembering the goonbound forum. No caps here, sorry

I think we're done here.

What's the matter, kid? Feeling threatened by traps that have bigger dicks than you?

Anybody that isn't a woman has a bigger dick than me.
Mine was blown off when the my fireteam's DPV hit a roadside IED in Iraq. I lost my right leg up to my knee and my left leg up to just below my hip.

user, were you in the fucking Gulf War? You've got to be at least in your mid 40's if that's the case.
Jesus Chirst

whoops

Dang, I am genuinely sorry to hear that man

I know the artist who made that, they're capable of some amazing lewds.

About 10 hours in.

I'm really liking this more than Terraria. Bosses are actually video game bosses, music is more comfy, feels like I'm playing metroid when I'm underground.

I honestly don't know what the fuck is wrong with people who say "Terraria had better bosses"

You mean, "Floating thing that moves slightly faster than you"? or "Giant eyeball that also floats, and moves faster than you"

Weapons feel more dark-soulsy, instead of being items that I just happen to be able to swing and general spritework is a whole lot cleaner.

Though at the end of the day, fuck cucklefish, they should have had 1.0 finished years ago.

There is no pacing in Starbound. I was extremely overgeared for every boss after the first two. Every boss fight after that consisted of charge my portal staff, cursor over the boss, spam bandages if I somehow ever took damage. Even the final boss, I could just tank all the hits I wanted while spamming bandages.

I had it even easier since i cheesed my way through the game using the mod mechs which are ridiculously powerful.
Some bug happened which made me kill the bone dragon so hard my game crashed.

Theres only supposed to be one beam

All but the first boss are literally the same as terraria.

Even the cultist bitch with the morph ball attacks? I actually enjoyed that boss fight, it doesn't seem like it'd have a Terraria counterpart

...

Seems subjective to me! Personally I thought it lasted long enough to let you figure out the attack patterns, while being short enough that it didn't feel like it took forever (provided you have big burst damage like a Blink Explosion weapon)

The dungeon leading up to that boss fight though? That was some lame shit, compared to the missions that came before it.

Doing God's work, son.

...

That rotating bit is a nice touch.

brilliant
