... transfer is super cool and really opens up space logistics. But right now it leads to builds like this.

No movement, boring, too clean and feels unearned. It also makes it too easy and does not engage with many core mechanics of factorio.

... planets barely interact with each other, and they feel like a minigame.

I like the challenges on Gleba and Fulgora and Aquilo (I find Vulcanus boring), but once I've set up my factory I find myself not even thinking about them for many hours. I don't think this is fixable - the design is baked in ...

... much harder, longer and tedious, with very little benefits.
- Why adding quality into the game? Because doing the same setups over and over gets boring. And we wanted to add more replayability.
And so on. I didn't search for these topics, it's something I know for sure from those FFF's.

It would break up the boring choice of just throwing in whatever has the highest quality buff you can afford, without disrupting current setups too much. The most used quality ...

... have removed what wass enjoyed by players as an option for space platform to just leave LDS shuffle. I felt it was balanced. I think it's easy and boring to just set up fulgora to recycle everything above like 4000 in a giant bot network, put some quality module in the recyclers and drill and you'll ...

... get me wrong i love the current look too) - but this would be an amazing thing to see - anyone agree?


Well, I would imagine it would be pretty boring since I’m assuming there’s no animation or game integration for concept art. There’s a LOT that happens to concept art before it’s a usable in game ...

... In retrospect, I probably shouldn't have done metallurgic because that was just as unfun as your description. Standard upcyclers are so boring and unproductive so it's more fun to cheese it. The more yield-optimized approach to quality science would be uncommon / rare, which becomes ...

... valid. The arguments that if anything should go it was the LDS & PU shuffles are valid. The argument that Casinos/Upcycling/Washing/Shuffles are boring/unrewarding are subjective but valid. The arguments that WUBE have improved/hurt the game by removing Casinos are valid. But what isn't really ...

Without space casinos I'm afraid we would have to grind. Even if the grinding curve is not purely linear, it's still fills a little bit boring quite some time.



I'm not afraid because i already found a method to avoid repetitive task or waiting , so really no grind at all. I thought i explained ...

The unique feature of space casinos was that it allows you to simplify this grinding step a little bit in the middle-end game ...

Very underwhelming update.
You need to make early game less boring by allowing player more interesting toys before unlocking drones.


I use this mod (I disable everything except for the starting drones/harness armour) and it works well.

... that Quality is a solved problem.

Factorio is a game about automation, obviously. This means at a fundamental level it doesn't really matter how boring a particular mechanic actually is, in fact I would argue that the game is INTENTIONALLY boring - you could craft the required parts for an item by ...

... of the game, and it was such a cool solution.
It was one of the more interesting solutions, so it's a shame to see it gone in favour of simple, boring, and inefficient solutions. If it was nerfed, rather than straight up removed, I wouldn't be out here complaining my heart out.

However, if it was ...

Throwing everything into the recycler to have a chance at something better is the same as a slot machine. Boring and disappointing, with the occasional "JACKPOT" moment. Surely I can't be the only one who dislikes that part of quality.
AFAIK, this is mostly ...

Sure... copying and pasting upcycling loops is boring, but you only do it once. You can do almost all of the SA items in an hour or so. T

I don't think that's true, because the throughput of each component varies greatly across different recipes. You just end up with either bottlenecks or clogging ...
