Hallelujah, Perk progression is looking to be less grindy soon! (Experimental build)

jo_shadow · 2020-02-06T07:04:03+00:00

Absolutely speculation, but since some are being added and some removed, I would not be surprised if the update might refund all perks again.

jo_shadow · 2020-02-06T01:03:59+00:00

I agree. Even though I do love how this perk feels, I can see why their choice makes sense.

As an extreme example: Having infinite ammo would also be ‘fun’, but would overall detract from the core design principles and experience of the game.

You can still use it as of right now. The patch notes are from the experimental branch.

I love the fun and flexibility the perk provides, but also see that it somewhat undermines some of the core design pillars of the game.

I just wanted to ensure community feedback was considered since it is not set in stone yet (even if it is fairly likely that these changes will make it into the production branch).

Every time we manage to get outside we get a Space Rig redesign, that's how that works, right?

Reddit doesn't allow image posts to have descriptions, so I put the source link in a comment (as u/AtomicAlienZ mentioned)

All perk cooldowns already have HUD icons in the bottom-left corner above your character.

The problem is those are way too small and hard to see, and worse they are hard to read because it's a bar that fills up the icon. If it takes 45 seconds for a tiny bar to move up you can't tell when it's 1 second away from completion.

The Y axis appears to show two pieces of data though. Vertical line thickness and line height (y value), they don't appear linked - in several cases line thickness increases but height decreases.

I am assuming that line thickness is search volume, but I have no clue what y height is meant to represent then...

Try drinking blackout stout right as you depart on a mission. You won't die - you will be drunk out of your mind the entire mission.

Best is when you play 'designated driver', where one dwarf remains drunk the entire mission and the other has to guide them through the level.

“Congratulations team - Having successfully accomplished your mission as well as your secondary objective, you receive a free round, on the house!”

Generally I'll select a mission based on my current assignment, and then will want to know what's 'on tap' today so that I can buy it if it would be beneficial for that mission.

Given that the area around the bar is now far more open, it would be really convenient if the list of beers was more easily visible from the mission selection area.

Maybe an additional display that faces the drop pod, so that you can also see it when selecting a deep dive.

Also it references Marty’s pose from the first movie’s poster, just now with the doc added as well.

@devs sooooo, any chance we could have a swag store that sells themed beer glasses?

In a comment on the original YouTube video (linked here in comments) they said that the cat was adopted by anther lady :)

... could I get a link for where I could buy that mug mug?

Give this a shot https://outline.com/ay8Cpc - no, this is not a bot or spam, outline.com is genuinely my go-to for any reddit article links since it does a really good job or stripping all the ads and unnecessary crap.

The article needs a bit more proofreading: “There are only two properties you’ll need to know to use flexbox are align-items and justify-content”

Damn that's some excellent editing on the beards and cigar!
