No one has told us anything, nevertheless, the meme rings true. I miss a good ole bench devblog

Bench

Kind of tangential, but where is Bench ? I thought that he was the one that was designing the "Creative Direction" of the game? I've not seen him post in a very long time, let alone get on the dock.

That moment when the 3D art director replies before the social media director in his own thread... lol

Consider my curiosity... aroused

I would argue that all of the reasons you listed above are the exact reasons that will lead to us getting a complete game. Schine is willing to: Wait, taking their time to create a game that will actually mean something in the future. Sacrifice a temporary swell in players in order to foster...

Criticism isn't the issue, the lack of constructiveness is, however. As a player base we swing back and forth from requesting features and making the base game better with bug fixes, optimizations, and build tools/new blocks. What the devs are doing right now is so complex that they are...

Don't know about you guys... But if I can continue to care about and enjoy a $3-$15 game after years of being only partially complete then I think that early access is alright. I'll take the enjoyment that I got out of the game with the bugs and slow progress any day of the week. In terms of...

I've said it before and I'll say it again until the sun blows up. I would rather have a game 10 years in the making that actually means something and accomplishes its goals than have a once and done piece of garbage. Starmade has HUGE goals, goals that if realized could potentially have a large...

I think a lot of the new build tools are supposed to help with the switch. I have faith in Schine. Sure, they may be slow, but they are an indie development team with only a handful of programmers. I would rather have a small team take longer and change the game countless times in order to have...

I think that I just had a pipegasm...

Geez it's been a while... After a long and brutal year at college I finally had a chance to sit down and build. Behold! the framework for a new home base station!

I like it! It seems like a really cool system that will make building ships intuitive and simple! My only concern is what Lecic brought up, the whole "bounding box" mechanic. If someone from Schine could lend their thoughts on that it would be most appreciated, seeing that it isn't in the post...

Like this! I think it could lead to some neat situations!

Huzzah!!

I like your suggestion. I also wouldn't mind if we could enter coordinates and the gate would send us there, kind of like a one way gate. Sort of like a super accelerator

Glad to see that they are still planned! We haven't heard anything about them in a while so I was curious, thanks!

I like this a lot. You could even extend this beyond individual NPCs and have actual roaming fleets! Think about how that would play into intuitive procedural missions and such. Lets say you have to find X captain or Y fleet somewhere in space to accomplish some task, the likelihood of success...

Glad to hear the update! Does a flora and fauna update function separately than the universe update, or will it be integrated within it?
