Re: Friday Facts #375 - Quality

I don't understand your need to introduce legendary quality items if there is no Real Money Factorio Auction House.

But maybe this is a feature to be announced on the first DD in april?

Also I'm offended that my avatar is just a plain common fast inserter. Clearly I'm at least an epic fast ...

Re: Friday Facts #373 - Factorio: Space Age

What kind of challenges do this new world pose?

Is it just different resources combination or there will be something substantially different mechanically?

Can we expect something like acquatic planet with very few small island and majority of gameplay on water, or extreme athmosfere planet where ...

Re: Friday Facts #369 - To the moon

That's wonderful news Wube! NTFs are the salvation of PC gaming, the only chance at survival of you hobby in these dark ages of gaming.

I hope you will make a special NTFs version of the most precious item in the game, i.e. the fish. You could call it the A-Fish!

Re: Friday Facts #367 - Expansion news




I only play without enemies, so if this picture means more enemies then I guess this expansion is not for me.


I mostly play without enemies too. I wouldn't be surprised if new ennemies comes with new climates or other things that would still add gameplay elements to the non-slaugtherer ...

I am just surprised that you chose Old!XCOM/UFO:TFTD's Tentaculats as the inspiration for the new flying Biter.


What? Who said it's a biter? I thought that was the engineer evolution mk2 that is unlocked with genetic science.

With those tentacles you can craft 10 things at the same time, and ...

Re: Friday Facts #367 - Expansion news

Imho all this wine about the 30$ is out of place.

It's to much? Maybe? Who actually knows it for sure?

It depends on the value delivered. It might be to much, a steal or the right price. If Wube say they aim to deliver the same amount of content of the base game I believe them and it's a more than ...

weapon slot

Simple change.

What's about a tech or something to add an additional slot to weapons? It can be a dedicated teck, an additional perk of modular amor mark 2 or it can be included into toolbelt upgrade (though the additional slot it's really something useful in late game so that might be to early ...

Interesting. Without spoilering what you actually have in mind, do you already know the dimension of the game you want to expand?

Re: Friday Facts #361 - Train stop limit, Tips and tricks

Nice for the stations.

My max optimization until now has been to only activate raw minerals stations when ready and use a semaphore to release from smelting stations only the trains strictly necessary to fulfill the stations currently opened. It mitigated but not removed the issues you addressed in ...

cliff/water highlight mode

So I have this issue especially when cleaning xenos up with the tank that I always end stuck against some cliff or single water hole tiles hidden into the trees or some other doodle (even bugs cadavers sometimes).

And was thinking. What about an obstacle highlight mode that can be toggled up when ...

Re: Friday Facts #357 - Nuke


Atomic explosion looks good now. I would like to see some biters’ reaction to the blast. They could stop for a few seconds and turn around to look what’s the hell is happening.


They should notice and run away if realistic reaction is what you seek :lol:

For my part I love the shockwave but I ...

Re: Friday Facts #314 - 0.17 stable

Regarding the wow analysis, I agree that convenience killed the game. Dungeon queue with random people, instant teleport and so on. But imho also the reduced difficulty. Dungeoning in vanilla was pleasantly difficult. Burning crusade was maybe even to much difficult (although I loved it). Then wotlk ...

I read something about new pollution mechanics in the past patch notes.

So I started a new game today. I can't understand if those nasty swarms of 15-30 biters that comes in the first 2 attacks are the new norm or just a balance issue. I mean... I can handle them (I'm on railworld, so...). But I'm ...

Personally I don't understand this "buff the belts" argument. What is the problem with current belts? You upgrade yellow to red, red to blue and then you put down multiple blue.

Putting down multiple parallel belts is not a chore is actually a nice evolution of the puzzle in the mid-late game. It ...
