Any thoughts on a survival mode? I know the game has a mode that is similar but still relies on collection.

As an engineer main, I'd love some more love for sustained fights in a fixed area. Maybe throw in a system where the bugs drop resources and those can be spent on boscos or something? Just spit balling.

Love the game!

Unlikely to be a mode but perhaps a defensive mission type...

Will modding ever come to the game? If so what kind of mods will be allowed?

The answer currently is not yes and not no. And certainly not yet.

Do you know how blowthrough bullets interacts with overclocks that make bullets ricochet? There's been a lot of conflicting findings and I was wondering if we could get an official source.

I would have to check I don't remember myself. Sorry.

I know the pickaxe is getting some love next update with the modular skins but what about new upgrades? New mods or OCs for the pickaxe would be great now that it's going to have its own terminal (attack speed, less slowdown, whatever).

First q-mining got removed, then old berserker got removed, vamp got nerfed and the new berserker should have a melee passive instead of see you in hell. Melee was a high risk high reward playstyle and now its awful unless you play something like driller with cryo.

I could see us doing some more mods for the pick axe but not before 1.0 need to fix all the other weapons first o.O

Yall should have a xenomorph event. Where the main objective is to simply escape and you're just constantly being bombarded with xenomoprhs.

Not sure what you mean by event. Can you clarify?

EmotionalCrit

I know you said that one of the first updates post-EA will be more mission types. Is that still the plan? And do you have any concepts you'd be willing to share for new missions?

And I feel like I've asked this before, but I've seen a lot of great ideas for new biome types. Are you still open to the possibility of adding new biomes in the future, or is what we see what we get as far as that's concerned?

It is still the plan but no I don't have any concepts to share at the moment.

And yes we are very open to doing a few new biomes.

Is there a possibility we might get a mission set in a more industrial location such as ... I dunno, a DRG space rig?

Nothing like that planned but something like securing an overrun planetside refinery could be a cool new mission type.

Bordy9292

Any chance of adding a voice menu or a voice command wheel in the future?

Chance, yes. Plan, no.

Hi, I bought your game a couple of months ago and likes it so much I made my friend buy it :D

Have you considered missions that alter the way we acquire resources, like instead mining all the bugs on the map drop minerals and we have to search for praetors or other bigger bugs for big loot?

The mining is a core aspect of the game but just like with the elimination missions we have now, we are not closed to the idea of non-mining missions.

I came up with an interesting game mode where you have to ride the mules and fight off bugs like riding a horse. Anything similar you guys have thought of? Also I’m all for VR support

Riding a MULE like a horse was not something we have considdered, but a vehicle-based mission type is definatelly a possibility.

DoomOne

It's all so clear to me now!

I know, right?

Luubuuu

Both unfortunately. Nitra is tricky to spot in those maps. I notice a lot of missed clusters in comparison to other maps as my partner zips by. Salt Pits seems to be more difficult because the walls are red crystal textured. Collecting Magnite and Barley bulbs is a struggle as well.

Good to know, I'll bring this up with the others. Cheers!

Thank you for the reply. Rock and stone!

Grazzhopper1979

Fair enough, thank you for the reply. You guys rock....... and stone.

No, YOU rock and stone!

YeOldDrunkGoat

Fair enough. I'm just tired of my buddy rage quitting on me every time he doesn't get Elephant Rounds from a machine event.

That is more an issue of OC balance I would think. We're working on that.

kwalshyall

I thank you also for this gracious response, and hope that my sass does not undercut my great appreciation of the work that you all are doing and the game that you are making.

Rock and Stone!

Why the fuck cant we pet bosco

Bosco is not your pet, he is your coworker. You can respectfully salute him. He may be made of metal but he has a heart of stone.

  1. Who is karl?

  2. What kind of monster lay glyphid dreadnought eggs? Will we ever fight it?

  3. Do you guys intend to add more chest armor cosmetic?

I love your game I think you guys are doing an amazing work!!

  1. [REDACTED]

  2. They are not eggs but cocoons that the dreadnought smade themselves.

  3. Yes.

Rock and Stone!

NickSlickWilde

What’s the deal with the line “before they turn into something worse” on dreadnought missions. A bigger boss maybe?

And another thing, are there any plans to make references to other media or some form of pop culture references or even crossover stuff of the sort in the future?

Maybe...

We have a little bit of it already with some of the voicelines and descriptive texts.

Skylasy

I wanted to ask if there was ever a plan to make a pure expedition mode. Where your goal is to do... well most already existing goals. I.e You can find and collect, Morkite, Eggs, Repair Bots, but under a sort of time limit?

We have discussed doing time-limited missions but have not taken the plunge yet.
