Re: Please Bring Back Chests and Power Poles as Sources of Fuel

No item beyond the early game is "obsolete".
It makes no sense to gate an official trash bin behind a rocket.
It makes no sense to have specific recycling buildings or recipes just for those couple of wooden chests and poles.

Re: Version 0.17.0

All the new things, improvements, etc. are very nice but I thought that there would be keyboard shortcuts for the Tool bar actions: blueprint, deconstruction planner, upgrade planner, toggle personal roboport, toggle exoskeleton, but I cannot find it in the controls.

Re: Underground belt lane splitting, anyone else hate it?

So about that lane splitting thing again? I have over 1000 hours in factorio now and got by perfectly fine without even knowing it exists. This is a pure min-max space efficiency kind of thing. Doesn't matter if it's counter intuitive, if you're down to that level of control, you have hundreds of ho...

Re: The Problem With Pickaxes - Digging Out Factorio's Core

Well this all hinges on us agreeing that this is a "betrayal" in the first place for which you gave no compelling reasoning as to why it would be.
Exaggerated, flowery tales are all nice and well but they don't really make good arguments.

Re: Friday Facts #269 - Roadmap update & Transport belt perspective

Why did you insist on one huge megapatch that slams it all in our faces anyway?
Why not add small things such as the hi res laser turrets incrementally so we can focus on this one new thing and have more time catching bugs?

Re: Friday Facts #268 - The modern Biter

Am I the only one who wants to see more enemies than just biters? Like what for example? How would that change the interaction with enemies in a game in which they are mainly just warning messages, blips on the radar and in which it can take you 10 minutes to reach the point that has been attacked?

Where did that decision to make it cute come from anyway? Were you inspired by something?

Re: Friday Facts #266 - Cleanup of mechanics

Good. You might also want to remove armor durability, it doesn't really serve any purpose since this isn't a don't starve type game in which your breaking equipment forces you to constantly go out and scavange for resources in order to fill declining bars. The final modular armor you'll be sticking ...

Re: Minimal on siite sulfuric for uranium mine?

Doesn't seem worth it.
One train lasts for like 2 hours and once it is set up, you can send it to future uranium mines too whereas all the on-site mumbo jumbo to get acid going is just dead weight to be deconstructed once the uranium is mined out.

Re: I Miss Alien Artifacts!

Yeah, those things weren't good.
"Loot" doesn't fit this game at all and leads to all kinds of unnecessary problems.
Perhaps you should rethink why you feel the need of some sort of "reward" for killing things.

Oh. My god. Just add the que. There is no "joy" in looking at icons and having to click on each one manually. Research IS a to-do list. Sorry but the sparkly fairy dust wears off after playthrough #2 and all you want from that point on is efficiency. Wasn't this game about not having to ba...
