I feel like I should PTW this thread.

[Azated]

I played a bit of the latest updates. It's cool seeing the new changes and the campaign was interesting, if a little buggy and super disjointed.

Playing survival, I got burnt out as soon as I started mining. I still feel like there's literally no progression; I can raid the 10 or so pirate bases in orbit with a grinder and a spare hydrogen tank. I can deconstruct the lander and build an entire base from it, complete with mining ships that will never be used.

I love the game, but it's basically just a creative builder with a few weak survival mods.

If this game is actually more than boring your mind out on planets and if multiplayer is actually alive now, I am thinking of building a singlehand-able 3 man industrial utility barge, anyone want in?

Today's update has added a bunch of character and tool skins, a parachute block(original mod was integrated - you can apparently unsub from the mod safely), random lootboxes for Survival mode, and a "canvas" resource(presumably for parachute).

Naturally, every comment on the update seems to declaring the game dead/doomed or demanding Keen to fix everything.

When you add microtransactions and loot crates to a neglected early access game that also has an equally neglected splinter game plus a dev off spending fucktons of money on a different company people will tend to get upset yes.

Wat.

Random loot boxes != microtransactions. Have you ever played Minecraft? Village and dungeon chests are random loot boxes.

Golly gee I wonder what possible motivation exists for creating a system in which obnoxious skins are bought and sold. Might it have something to do with the developer's wallet? No, never.

Now, I haven't played minecraft in awhile, but last i checked "random loot boxes" didnt result in out of game items that reside in your steam wallet and can be traded for US dollars.

[Akura]

Can you provide a link rather than a screenshot?

PRE-EDIT: Nevermind, that's the Steam Marketplace, not microtransactions. It's no different then selling Steam Trading Cards.

[forsaken1111]

That isn't micro transactions. I could do the exact same thing by selling loot drops in world of Warcraft

[BigD145]

I kinda wish I had time to farm those and get in on the ground floor. In a few days that will all be pennies.

Except Blizzard didn't make any money off those sales.  In this case Valve and the developers of the game do.

[PTTG??]

Who is the moron who works for Keen? First cyberwolves and now this nonsense.

[Gabeux]

Come on, dwarves.
The game was rigged from the start..

I do have fun with it from time to time, though.

[StagnantSoul]

Alas, the game's dying... It was at least stabely there for a while.

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

Curious, anyone want to mess around in multiplayer?  Finally got a computer that can run the game decently.
