i know that grenades explode when the land but if it was changed to be more realistic and exploding after a timer instead of landing, it would make a great addition to the game (excluding Molotovs, which actually explode when they hit the ground). this would not only allow the colonists to run from grenades but as well as raiders being able to dive away from them and make combat a little more interesting. Finally if the grenades explode on a timer like in real life that would also allow for a colonist to attempt to throw it back (depending on how close it is and how much time is left before the explosion). if they fail the grenade explodes in their hand, and if they are lucky enough not to die, lose their limb. i feel like this would help make the combat a little more realistic and possibly add a new thing worry about/take advantage of in combat

I'd have to say that there is some bits and pieces of racism here and there that aren't very obvious but what I have noticed is that people tend to be extra careful about what they say around black people, presumably because they are afraid that the "racism" card will be pulled for something as little as a disagreement on opinions. I had some kid at my school (complete jerk who loved to be annoying, and also happened to be black) try to pull the "racism" card and call me a racist after I told him to shut up and leave me alone so I could finish what I was doing in solid works. He could have been any skin color out there and I still would have told him to stop. Keep in mind though that a lot of communities like the black lived matter supporters usually have an extreme side to them and that's what gets noticed the most and sets their reputation (also applies to a lot of other communities such as furries, some gaming communities, and feminists to name a few off the top of my head). For how everyone is treated though I feel it's completely the same for the most part (aside from a few things that both sides are guilty of such as overreactions and not responding in an appropriate manner)

Basically I feel usually everyone is treated equally asides from a few blacks attacking whites by abusing the racism card and a few advantages that have been seen for a white worker compared to a black one. Both of which can be improved.
(Anything that may sound racist is not intended to be since I was being blunt about how I feel about this topic)

that would make a great addition for if you donate more money to the game

go into dev tools, pause the game, use lightning, click all the animals (or most of them) at least once or twice (more the better), unpause and watch the lag grow into a beautiful wall of lightning overkill from Zeus himself

And if you do this, MAKE A VIDEO!!!!

We need that to advertise the game.

Yes! add it at the very end to show how fun and chaotic this game can get!

if youve played the game for a while or at least have had several different colonies chances are you have a memorable colonist or colonists, i was wondering what other peoples stories of bad assery or acts of stupidity have been performed by other colonists and why they are memorable.

Mine is john the bar tender, he was part of my first (and my largest as it was the only colony i truly went back to even after different version where released) colony. He actually crashed on the planet so he was one of the first three allowing me to have seen him the longest. He was well rounded, good with cooking, farming the giant straw berry fields that where needed to feed around 12 colonists, and a crack shot. Best moments of his would include being a warden until a pop star joined (taking his place) farming giant fields, being my first colonist to use a mini gun, using the mini gun to fight off mechinoids, and sniping seiger camps with an assassin or bombing said camp with said assasian

I've learned to take most of the deaths in the game in stride by now, but it always hurts a little when I lose my initial colony pet. They always get their own little grave plot somewhere nice.

I had an asshole of a bear come in one time and hunted the colony cat. The colonist it had bonded to was super sad and lets just say that the bear had 4 very pissed off colonists and another bear named earl brutally murder it. After that feasco my colony cook cut up the cat and feed it to the colonist who bonded with it (and everyone else in the colony). Nothing says "fuck your colonist" like having a bear kill everyone's favorite cat for food then having your cook feed said cat to said colonist like that (besides fuck your colonist =p) rip feista

Found a chilly boreal forest.
Randy decide to throw a sappers raid
They breach my power supply and my fridge.
A Cold snap happens
Another raid of tribals show up and go through my breached walls
They incapacitate and kidnap my cook and doctor.
My turtle goes berserk and kills 2 of my constructors.
All that is left is my Pop Idol.
She kills the turtle and eats it's raw flesh.
She dies of starvation.

10/10, gg wp.

I dare you to put that for a review, word for word XD

Anyone ever hesitate to move the colony along? Either in building or leaving on a ship or even prolonging how long research takes? I feel like I do it sometimes only because by the time I'm truly comforatble to live outside a mountain I end up hesitating on building it because of the advantages and disadvantages

Thanks!

actually ive never had one of these moments with randy, (usually play rough or what ever the one after base builder is since i take my time and sometimes cheat a little). i think the weirdest ever would have to be a man hunter (wargs) come during a heat wave (very boring few days for the colonist)

so a long time ago when i was introduced to the game by a friend (no longer plays since he could never get the colonist to not have a mental breakdown) i had a great start into the game, like underground base, two crop fields larger than said base, 13 people total, sieges all the time that my bar tender John and first recruit Krista would snipe the raiders, John ran around with a mini gun to distract mechanoids when they landed, all in all it was a fun and successful colony i wish i hadn't lost (computer was ruined). But i remember one moment in that way where you know what happened you just don't remember all the details to it, just the important part. I had a 68 year old lady name Emily with a mohawk, and what made this old woman special to me is her high melee skill and the fact that i had her run up to mechanoids (only centipedes, never sythers), punch them so they lost their charge up for shooting, then run away before getting hit, much like the drawing i have included below

Yeah, I've heard of those nasty buggers.  Some of them even masquerade as "upgraded security" or some nonsense.

im pretty sure most of the "download for better installer" and "download for updated windows system" and all that nonsense are a virus

more art XP i suck but its fun
