In my opinion, the current only turret is already wayyy over-powered for the setting. Granted, they don't have much more HP than regular colonists and explode on death but:
- They have a very good weapon even at the very beginning and can be upgraded. Good range, multiple shots, etc...
- They can be repaired while firing, whereas colonists have to stay in bed for a long time
- They cost much less than a colonist, spamming auto-turret seems to be an effective way to remove all narrative tension from the raiders.

The simple fact that GC13 could fly through a combat in high speed shows that he wasn't too much worried about raiders anyway ;)

I would place more emphasize on colonists and less on automatic turrets to increase dramatic tension.

I completely agree.
So maybe the turrets should be made more expensive and harder to research like i said.
And certainly they should be late game. Or be made out of really special dangerous to mine materials.

Japan, baby! It's great being a PC Gamer in Japan because the Internet is terrible and no one speaks English and wait, it sucks. Seriously though, these guys are nuts about consoles and arcade games and I think it's fucking fantastic. I might do a little iPhone video tour of the Sega arcade nearby sometime. It's like 6 stories or something.

I have been to Hong Kong. Amazing place.

Is that the big arcade near how is it called big square in tokyo?

Ive been there once and damm those arcade's are awsome. I just didnt get the spraycans with breatable air. Like everybody is a wannebe diver

It's official. That cat is the adopted mascot of this tavern. Page 6 will forever be its home here at the drunkard's tavern.

Anyone want to tell some fun drinking and/or gaming stories?

This one time I got my buddy pretty drunk. We played World of Warcraft together all the time and the three of us there had just gotten done doing some PVP or something. This guy was not used to drinking but he was the outgoing jockish type, so when he started roughhousing me and my other friend while yelling "Backstab! Kidney Shot! Kidney Shot", we knew we had trouble on our hands. I wish the story ended there, but... Well, it does. I was pretty drunk too. I think me and my other buddy ended up sitting on him until he calmed down.

Once in a drunken mood i logged into my back than swedish girlfriends wow account and took off all her belongings and hid them in the guildbank.

Next morning when she logged in i got my ass handed to me. Dickpenalty for 3 weeks d-;

this is how she tought about me

I agree that at least one new type would be cool, I also believe combat should be mostly between colonists and raiders and turrets only playing a small part.

That being said why not a less lethal turret? I think its much more rewarding in the end to capture raiders.  If I kill them I only gain thier guns but if I capture them I can possibly get a new recruit!

If there are going to be more turrets they should take  a shitload of research and even more materials/time to produce.

All this sound like you are preparing a MOBA ???

MOBA is a game if im correct like leage of legends or dota 1/2

But to me it sounds like a tower defence game and i wouldnt prefer it.
I think your main force must be the settlers themselves manning the barricades defending our home  with there lifes.

I really really like the idea.

What also would be awsome if you had a certain amount of time to get some supplies into a shuttle before you chrashland.
So you can fit X number survivors in there and X amount/weight of supplies and you only got so long

- Funeral pyre: Clearing animal corpses with a specialized Dump area and pouring Molotov cocktails on them (see attachments).

I love how gleeful Rogers looks as she watches those animal corpses burn... I imagine she is also laughing quite evilly. You might want to keep an eye on that one.

Sorry i have to object.

Keeping a eye on her would mean she could get terminated in the future.
I would forget all about her and let her roam around the countryside and do her evil biddings

At which level of quote do you think the cat will be cropped?

The inverse of how many licks to get to the center of a tootsie pop!

The cat is still looking angry.
After this much attention he gets.

Can we stop quoting the cat meow? This is getting ludicrous.




I concur. >.>

PayPal is around 6-7k.

As for the tiers, just to clarify:

If you take Pirate tier you get to put a name in the game.
If you take Merc tier you get to put a name and stats and a background into the game. This creates a character who can spawn as one of many different roles.
If you take PK you do the same as Merc, but the character spawns as a Pirate King.
Designer rewards and beyond are on top of the PK reward.

Also, the character from Mercenary tier doesn't have to be a Mercenary. It can be any type except a Pirate King. Could be a trader, traveler, refugee, pirate, drifter, and so on.


But can i be a transvestite pirate king willing to steal ugly man to fill up my transvestite army   (-;

Currently the closed pre-alpha is full. See thread: http://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=34.0 . You can get the open pre-beta if you do the Influencer tier from kickstarter or from Paypal on the may Ludeon site, but will not receive your download link and key until Kickstarter ends.

I've looked as well to see what to do to get a copy, and currently it's wait patiently until the Kickstarter ends. Several other threads discuss some of the reasons it would not complete until Kickstarter completes.

Tasher

Sorry dude but its the pre alpha you get acces to.

Everybody pledging to the influencer tier or higher will get pre alpha acces to the game AFTER the kickstarter.

This choice was made duo to the fact that else people would get acces and than just withdraw there pledge. It happened in other kickstarters and i guess tynan was trying to prevent this.
