Playing the game with a guns guy now. Friggin loving it like a fiend. Awesome in many, many ways. My guy's high int, combined with good dex and high per, makes him a great crafter as well.

Now, here's the thing about crafting items I wanted to ask:
We can make explosives, we can make plasma pistols, chemical guns, firearms, boots, armor.
But will we be able to eventually craft lockpicks and Haxxors?
I think it would be a good addition if we could do that, like upgrade lockpicks from Mk I to Mk II to Mk III to eventually some sort of lockpick that degrades after several uses rather than simply a once and done (like it gets 2-3 uses before it gets broke kind of deal).
I'd also like the ability to build my own Haxxor units based on electrical and hacking skills available. Not simply upgrade things like their hacking ability, but also energy usage, energy storage, etc.

Also, with regards to other weapons: Flamethrowers as a viable option by chance? Maybe some sort of napalm thrower that shoots balls of fire? (So it doesn't chew up too much of your time with animating, etc.)

Love the regenerative jackets BTW. Plan on turning them into anti-rifle ballistic vests.

Also, is there someplace where I can find a list of items that I can add to specific armors and weapons? Like, what can I add to plasma pistols and lasers, what can I add to explosives, etc.

Also: Dammit, give me the ability to enhance the damage of my tungsten serrated knife! Give me a shocking upgrade option like for the sledge!


Love this game so far.

Other Games / Favourite games of 1984 or earlier...

I played the original ELITE back in '84 and loved it to bits. Another game that got me in those adolescent years was 'Lords of Midnight' and the follow up 'Doomdarks Revenge'.
What games back then did you spend endless hours playing?

Bugs / Airlock to lower caves

« on: March 27, 2015, 04:06:05 pm »

Every problem i had with this INCREDIBLE game was covered in the latest dev blog post, save one. In the airlock where you're bioscanned before entering or exiting the lower caves, i stealthed and foolishly quicksaved. After that, the doors wouldn't open for me and i couldn't escape and had to reload. I tried pretty much everything before i reloaded. Just thought i should bring this to your attention, i am truly impressed with your game so far and i can't wait for the full version. I described this game to my brother as Fallout 2 meets Metro 2033 with a hint of Shadowrun, and i think it fully deserves to be mentioned alongside those titles. I'm really excited guys, thanks so much for the free demo!

Suggestions / Dialogue

« on: March 27, 2015, 03:57:58 pm »

First of all, I'm in love with this game and am quite eager to play the final version. I'm an old fan of the Fallout games (and similar titles, i.e. Arcanum and Planescape), so it's wonderful to have something scratch that old and hungry itch.

So, my suggestion is more of a concern for down the road in the game's development. A lot of the dialogue and text in the game have some pretty serious grammatical and spelling errors. Things like "your" instead of "you're," or just some run-on or unclear sentences. That's all fine now in the alpha and understandable with a one renaissance-man dev-team, but I would hate to see the game get anything less than the pristine reviews it'll deserve in the future for something so minor to the development as some misspellings. At the same time, this type of thing does go a long way to break illusion and immersion.

Depending on how much writing you have towards the end, you might not be able to feasibly go through all that over again. What I would suggest then, is that you open the dialog up at some point to a few members of the community that can help clean up some of the dialog after you've written it. And I'm sure you could find a few willing to help.

General / Font Size with res 1920/1200

« on: March 27, 2015, 03:53:19 pm »

I use the large opt for the dialog stuff that is in the options, But all the other fonts are soooo small to read. Any way to make those bigger? thank you

General / Post You build :)

« on: March 27, 2015, 03:52:27 pm »

C'mon, show what You got


Since I started this topic here is mine:

Metathermic gunslinger/sniper

Critical atributes:
Perception (10)



Critical skills:
Guns max
Dodge
Evasion
Metatermmics (for cryostasis and cryokinesis)
Psychokinesis (just 25 to get telekinetic punch and forcefield)
Melee (just 25 for dirty kick)
Stealth

Critical feats:
Aimed shot
Execute
Hipothermia
Cryogenic induction
Sharpshooter
Shroomhead
Oportunist
Snipe
Dirty kick

Rest is optional


I like this build alot since You can easily drop though enemies by using stasis+shatter combo. It also grants other means of exploiting weakened enemies.



Post Your creations please
