YAY LIGHTNING!!! Fulgora is very likely to become my home planet. I love lightning, and having a turret for it is EPIC!!

SO. MUCH. HYPE!!! I am SO excited for this game's 2.0 and DLC!!!!!! And easily, Fulgora will be my first planet- I love lightning!!!

YAY! Beta when? lol

Super stoked to have Friday Facts back!

Also, when can we start giving you money?? xD

Super hyped already for the expansion! xD Really happy that you guys have decided to go this route!!

Woooowwww........... IT'S SO PRETTY. O.O
... wait- that's what the engine looks like now??? WHOA.
Holy GUI changes Batman!
These are so very good looking. NICE JOB GUYS!!!
I'm always impressed with your communication and continued labor of love, and the quality work you develop and deliver!!!

Now that 0.18 is out (in beta), I wonder what will happen to Industrial Revolution mod? It's no longer compatible with the latest version of Factorio, and the author apparently doesn't want to support it or release it for other potential maintainers. It's really sad, since IR is the highest-quality...

I am really saddened to hear the campaign is cancelled. In RTS games, I typically play the campaign and mostly ignore skirmish. Well-made campaigns have more gameplay variety and encourage the player to use strategies that they might otherwise ignore. I was waiting until the full campaign was relea...

I'm glad Webe is doing triage on what to officially release for version 1.0. This is a great tool to mitigate scope creep in an application. In a way I am saddened to not have a Campaign game as part of the main release. But given my experience in learning this game, I do not believe this is a majo...

I find it not appropriate to describe Dominik's departure in the way you did it. How else should we handle it? I want to be as transparent and honest with you as I can be. I appreciate the honesty. Dominik had been around around a long time, right? It's sad to see him go. :( I really hope things go...

I love the new changes, per usual!!

It's been awhile- I've been distracted with other games. Sad, I know.

Just wanted to pop in and say THANK YOU for keeping the updates coming!!!!! I still very much appreciate them, and am always excited to hear about Factorio updates!!

AWWEEESSSOOMMMEEEE!!!!!

Now that I got that out of my system XD -

Super excited for the .17 release- almost here!!! Very happy with what you best-devs-ever are doing. Factorio is my favoritest game ever!
Please keep up your amazing work!

Yay updates!!
I wouldn't mind the spitters and worms being more accurate/predicting better. Worms are supposed to be scary.
Train GUI looks great!

I agree that more than a whole year between major releases is a bit much. However, the Factorio team had a very good reason for this: They decided to write their own graphics engine, because the existing one was causing too much trouble (for example this bug ). For this, they had to rewrite major p...

Weapons and armor behave much the same as pickaxes, you craft them once and keep them equipped forever. Maybe you should get rid of equipment entirely, simply upgrade the base armor and unlock new weapons without the need to equip them (what's the point of limiting it to three anyway?). While you'r...

I like most of these posts. Shotguns are better against bases- they don't use a full piece of ammo per shot, and deal better damage against the bases then smg does. So they're cheaper/better options for taking down bases. Also, I love the feeling of the combat shotgun with speed upgrades- feels good...

https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-275 Fantastic postcard! I LOVE THE NEW SCIENCE CHANGES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D I think that adding pipes to Logistics Science would be great! Good step up from red to green (needs 3 ingredients instead of 2) and I like that I would have pipes in place for oil refining. :...

It's a known issue.

Unfortunately the fix will be in 0.17 since we can't change map generator without creating glitches in existing saves.

I'm glad that you guys have found it and are working on it!!

Wow! Those belts look SO GOOD once combined with the other sprites! I was iffy at first. They look great! :D Also, please take your time with the updates! WE LOVE THE WORK YOU DO!!!!!! Also also- thank you for clearing things up! It's good to know that you're wanting to speed things up. I am curious...
