Thats partially because the "atomic bomb" is not a an atomic bomb as you might know it.

It is actually more like a FatMan from Fallout or like a M28 Davy Crockett https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davy_Crockett_(nuclear_device)

I think the ingame "atomic bomb" is just badly named and the research ...

In fact, I think the game would be greatly improved by introducing rain, which rusts all the iron plates on conveyors and anything (like, say, conveyors) that is made of iron.

Steel does develope corrosion too. And if we are already talking about it, pipes pumping sulfuric acid should develope ...

This is a purely cosmetic suggestion but it should get a laugh or two out of the player.

How about Locomotives on Rocketfuel would shoot flames out of the chimney and set the tracks on fire.
You know, something like that to show that you are using premium fuels to run your business. ;)

Well I cant think of anyone else who could craft a nuclear reactor in his hands almost instantly

Greetings Users,

I am currently in the 0.15 Open Beta and started a Game with the preset railworld.
I did notice that Biters wont expand into previously cleared territory anymore this way, but I am a bit bored as they pretty much avoid my base now.

Is it possible to change that to the standard ...

I never was good at math but I DO like to wrap my head around.
But for the most part i dont pay much attention to rations,... just build more than enough and you are fine.
The Game isnt really punishing you for paying no attention, except when you are playing some masochistic low resource map

I havent taken a close look at the duration of an oil field, but I did notice that fluid-tanks are HUGE now.

"Oh the tank has 2,3K of oil in it but the bar is only at 10%... that must be a bug" ... kinda thing

Less space needed, more puzzling and more explosions.

How did that happen? Sorry

It doesn't help that all the media has portrayed them so wrong that people seem to believe that they are basically primed nukes in disguise rather than extremely safe which, for my personal tastes, really drives me up the wall. [/quote]


Well... the history shows that mankind isnt fit enough to ...

Here is another showerthought.

In the endgame, you mainly build Laser-Turrets to fight those filthy aliens.

To counteract that, give Biters and Spitters armor/thick skin/plating like you see on an Armadillo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armadillo .

Think of it as a Kevlar Vest that only hardly ...

I would like to see another variety of Biters and Spiters:

The Hive-queen.

They move slower than other Aliens, but are mobile hives that can also seed the area with nests.
They deal huge damage (maybe also ranged)

Basically I would like to see them as siegeweapons that brake through your walls of ...

MacGyver

Rather than Uranium Reactors, I would like to see Thorium reactors or maybe Nuclear Fusion reactors for later on.

Reactors that run on Uranium Fission only developed because of the Manhatten Project to buil a Fission Bomb first.
So my reason is, if we dont get Nuclear Warheads and ballistic ...
