"Refined Concrete"

Post by Durabys »

"Refined Concrete" makes normal "Concrete" obsolete inside the factory. You may as well as remove "Concrete" and leave only "Refined Concrete" because everyone will be going for "Refined Concrete" anyway."

The three main objections to "Refined Concrete" from my MP co-players are:

Too Early ----> Should be gated behind Blue Science at the least???
There Is No Such Thing As "Refined Concrete" In RL ----> "Reinforced Concrete"???
Normal Concrete Is Never Used In High Tech Science Facilities Like Uranium Refining Centers, Nuclear Reactors And Rocket Launch Pads ----> Replace "Concrete" with "Refined Concrete" in the Nuclear Reactor, Centrifuges, and Rocket Silo recipes.

Poeple may use both kinds of concrete for decorative purpose.
I am a translator. And what did you do for Factorio?
Check out my mod "Realistic Ores" and my other mods!

Well. Then it is minority.
Most players I play with are of the Game Mechanic Exploiting sort of people.

By this logic, the devs should remove bricks from the game, because concrete is an upgrade from bricks. You'll need a better argument than this, I think.

Bricks could be actually red science locked. Concrete is red and green. Reinforced Concrete should be Red, Green and BLue locked. It makes sense. You start using bricks for real only with walls and steel furnaces.
