I laughed out loud several times in this thread, even at the dev's comment.
It amazes me that people can't seem to distinguish between 'guns' and 'weapons' (hint:one is a subset of the other). Spears (as in spear fishing) are not guns, a… -
Just like ACM, approach from above/below and behind and grab 'em. Nothing to it, then.

You, sir, have made my whole week by quoting this book. -
Nice picture, it reminds me of the Infinity Mirrors you can build/buy (google it, if you've never seen any).

Everything on this planet wants to kill me. Some are just subtle about it (I'm looking at you, Peeper.)
Besides, he looks like a burnt marshmallow. All crunchy carbon on the outside and gooey sweet on the inside.Can we eat it, in game? (Now before the vegetarians go nuts on me, I'm just asking because it looks like its already half barbecued in the first picture, and BBQ is sorely missing on this planet.)I'm guessing my survivor will be found/rescued, rather than escape the planet on his own. The Aurora is utterly ruined as far as taking off again (welding the leaking drive core isn't the same as restoring it to space-worthy condition). We've seen n…(Quote) Consider that the Crash fish doesn't exhibit any other behavior of an animal/fish - it doesn't wander around, it doesn't eat, it doesn't do anything but sit there like a fruit until you get close.
I don't think its a fish at a…For a new command (to get unstuck) it could be as simple as a 'respawn at the surface' command.The thing that makes the Lantern Fruit OP is not the stats of the individual fruit, its the fact that there is no downtime for harvest/replenishment. With the Marblemelon (which has best food/water ratio of any plant) there is the wait while it grow…(Quote)
I recycle the MP room as I dig so not a lot of resource use (except for way stations every so often). I wanted a shaft to fill with fish and plants, so it needed to be fairly large.I dug a vertical mineshaft (without the terraformer) to a depth of 722 meters...so far.I've never been able to get a Crash close enough to a Stalker to hold him in the charged field long enough to shoot him at the Stalker (before energy ran out). I *have* used the Crash as a missile to kill the plant he launched from, though. BTW, you…I just pluck a couple shrooms for seeds, swim off about 30m and drop them one at a time onto the sand, were I slash them to get the spores. Once I have them, I use a FAk and heal up, then go replant.I really like the idea of slower healing. Make the First Aid Kits a heal-over-time rather than instant heals, and the player doesn't heal at all without medical attention (the kit, a new device like an auto doc, etc).

I think that warrants its own thread, actually. off I go to make one.
(Quote) I haven't seen ANY difference between Survival and Hardcore modes, except the audible warning when your air supply is low. The permadeath aspect of hardcore is nice, but I can play exactly the same way in Survival mode (and have the audib…(Quote)
I like the 'scan fish for food' aspect of this idea. Instead of the way it works now (you grab a fish and poof it tells you that you have discovered recipes etc) you should have to scan everything you want to eat with the Scanner t…(Quote)
It is a chain reaction. Cut one, and the acid bloom detonates all the others in the cloud (releasing their own acid blooms, which triggers anything else in their clouds, etc). It happens very fast, so fast that you go 'slash -Arrrg…I look for a spot thats central to the best resource gathering areas (kelp forest, grassy plains, safe shallows) and preferably near a drop off so that when I build the Moonpool and Cyclops there is adequate room to maneuver close to the base. My cu…I'm of the opposite mindset. Making the early game harder, and more of a grind might improve replay value for a veteran player, but it definitely increases the difficulty for a new player - and might drive them away from the game. Also…Are you building it in a MP Room? It won't fit in other areas.What Pandadan said -its not a bug, its the way they are designed. You have to harvest the seeds with a knife, then replant. The marblemelon is the highest nutrition/energy plant in the game, so the extra difficulty in harvest/replanting offsets that…They are in the same universe. Alterra Arms Corporation owns the Aurora, and their logo is stamped on your knife.

Mycocidal LOL +1 for that term.
If you want to plant them, you have to have spores/seeds, which can only be gotten by cutting them with the knife...which causes them to explode into a cloud of very damaging acid. The ac…The hit box on the reaper is a lot smaller than its body. Lots smaller. But even if you had hit it, the gas won't do much except get its attention.Time to shove it over a few meters and then anchor it!
