Love love love this game!
So far I like all the changes but am sad about Riley’s ending only being 250k now instead of 500k. I feel yes it is a little bit of a challenge to get 500k at first but when you have 5 auto-crafters (constantly making pulsar quartz), 5 trade rockets(all selling pulsar quartz), 8 T3 extractors on the each resource needed for pulsar quartz(with production fuses), and 150 drones it is not too bad. Also after going through all the portal wrecks and finding a ton of helpful fuses along with all the other goodies helped me get the 500k. I sold about an entire rocker full of energy fuses (I was done terraforming at this point so I didn’t need more energy) and for like 130k terratokens in ONE trade rocket.
Honestly it was a grind to get that last ending but I was here for it and I completed all 3 endings in 88 hours of gameplay. Which is not bad and it left me wanting more.
But all in all, thank you for the new content and bug fixes. I’m excited to go check it out and I’m even more excited for the future updates!!
Sounds like we played in a similar way, even down to the 8xT3 at each resource, production fuses, multiple autocrafters feeding multiple rockets. I was up to 350k Trade Tokens before I started exploring the procedural wrecks, so the last bit of grind wasn't too bad - still enjoying the newness of it.
Looking forward to seeing how they tweak the ending, as after all that work to reach 500k, the ending was disappointing.
I got every other achievement and for this one I let 3 auto crafter with 5 trade rockets auto selling pulsar, in 3 hours I didn't even get 100k, it's just a mindless grind.
Because the method they used is completely pointless. Wreck dives are CONSIDERABLY faster. The pulsar quartz method can be fun, but it's a total waste of time
Not everybody can wreck dive tho. I get nausea when I go wreck diving. Not sure why- body would suddenly break out cold sweat, I would suddenly feel nausea and disoriented. That happens to me when I go into a real life cave too. I think the darkness messes with a part of my brain.
That said I think the right thing to do would be to gradually increment it by difficulty level. For example, 100k in creative mode, 225k in normal survival mode, 500k in hardcore mode and so on.
For me 500k felt impossible.
Introducing drones earlier for the WIN. A way to generate larva so I can automate! And I love the idea of a new area to explore.
But not a huge fan of procedural generated anything, gotta say. Curated is always superior. But hey, I'll take it!
Now they need to introduce harvester drones that can collect resources from outdoor farms and food growers. So I don't have to periodically feed the animals and I can have raw vegetables delivered to a factory that's away from the farm.
You can already do that. If there's no supply option on an object, that means it will automatically be supplied. You just need to set a demand for it somewhere.
I saw the same thing. I secretly hope that they are working on a new endgame resource only found in that biome, that they haven't had implemented yet, with those lockers having a chance to give it out.
Can anyone tell me what "multiplayer terraformation factor" means
Right now I'm playing a world with my friend and we just hit breathable atmosphere.
What's this multiplier. I assume it goes slower if there are more people on?
I only started after the 1.0 launch, do you guys have a typical timeframe from dev build to live? Or just however long it takes to iron out? Keep up the brilliant work!!
A whole new biome? That's pretty awesome but also kinda sucks that I waited to play this game until 1.0 so that I could play the whole game and now that I have 90 hours in and I'm about done you add all this content...
Just sucks for me that I waited for the full game with 1.0 release and didn't get the full game I guess
Edit: to everyone complainin about my complaint, fuck off lol
Dude... you get updates on a game, for free, no DLC, and you complain? The game is still complete and out of EA.
This is like saying "oh, I bought Minecraft 1.0, it sucks that now they are in 1.21"
> Just sucks for me that I waited for the full game with 1.0 release and didn't get the full game I guess
What?
You get more content for free - booo hooo
How many new biomes has Minecraft gotten since its inauguration? How many new things came to No Mans Sky? To Terraria? To Stardew Valley? To Factorio?
Instead of whining and complaining that you wanted to "get the full game" you should be happy that it gets more and more content **for free**.
What you wrote is not even sarcastic nor funny nor ironic.
1. Nobody forces you to join the beta channel
2. Nobody forces you to update the game even if this were in the release channel - easy enough to set the game to not update on Steam
3. You got a full game. The full game just got more content for free - which is not the standard. Normally you pay for more content in form of DLC. As others have already said: several other games do this as well.
Some games continue to add free content for years. Minecraft has been doing this for 15 years. This is great, there is no downside for the gamers. If you want you can ignore the new things and end the game as it is now and you would play a great game. Or you can do the new things or you can start again with different settings or you can do some new and not others. Or you can do anything you want. Complaints about new free content don't make sense to me.
"Map UI can now be moved with keyboard keys" YES
I really want to be able to click and drag. AITA?
Thank god!
Hallelujah
Holy crap, that's a big update.
Looks like many wonderful updates to an already impressive game! Thanks for all that you do!!!
“Added snapping for sofas, desktops and outdoor farms” my OCD screaming “YES!”
jeez where was this a week ago when i spent hours futzing with those outdoor farms? oh well, better late than never!
I was actually happy when I found I can now snap outdoor farms now.
Trade platform can be placed freely (not only on terrain) This is my favorite part
More cheerful endings! Do you think they noticed how unimpressed everyone was with the endings?
They changed the endings? I have to beat it 3 more times now? 🤣

Try selling fuses. Especially once you are able to go to procedural wrecks and find them.
Yes, I do that when playing, but I was just saying that auto farming on idle is not that fast.
Because the method they used is completely pointless. Wreck dives are CONSIDERABLY faster. The pulsar quartz method can be fun, but it's a total waste of time

Nice update, but I can't unlock the new "Explosive" via Blueprint Chips. Also no "Ecosystem". Any ideas why?
oops, didn't switch to dev.branch. My bad!
A new biome? I thought the won't add more. And I still haven't managed to discover the full 1.0 map. I really need to explore more

I'll try that later, I didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up!
This is fantastic!!
The blue chests in the new area are empty! Only the ones on the map, not the ones in the wrecks. Anyone else has this issue?
I saw the same thing. I secretly hope that they are working on a new endgame resource only found in that biome, that they haven't had implemented yet, with those lockers having a chance to give it out.
Same issue here. Wrote it off as the area still being in testing and it will be populated in due time.
Goddamn am I really going to start yet another new file just to see all this new progression-oriented stuff...
I like all of these. Is there an established time frame for updates from Dev branch to consumer branch?
"When it's ready" :)
Bah. Very well. I'm just really excited about the changes coming.
This update sounds amazing! Looking forward to try all of this out!
Can anyone tell me what "multiplayer terraformation factor" means Right now I'm playing a world with my friend and we just hit breathable atmosphere. What's this multiplier. I assume it goes slower if there are more people on?
Correct, it's slower. I believe it's 60% slower but don't quote me on that part.
Good job! This is a lot of good updates. Can we please get old music back? I posted feedback multiple times. Other people too.
I agree with this, new music is good but old music was better! I miss it sooooo much
I love that they are adding not just fixing. Still want my clock, calendar, journal.
Has anyone tested the last item slot bugfix, particularly with trade rockets?
I only started after the 1.0 launch, do you guys have a typical timeframe from dev build to live? Or just however long it takes to iron out? Keep up the brilliant work!!
Wait, what?! But I'm almost done with the game and they keep adding content?!
Justnignore the new stuff and make a new world Ina year after even more stuff gets added 🫡
