[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;40138763]Well bullets have different types, and lasers have different colors so there's that.[/QUOTE]
I guess we might see bullets have different types of damage outputs like armor piercing and lasers may have different effects like bouncing off stuff
I think about all of this crap too much
Lasers should be a low damage but damage sustained over time weapon while guns should be projectile base. Would make a little bit more sense I think.
Then in the end it is only there for visual variation and people get upset :v:
With all the randomized stuff, it'll be a bit surprising if lasers and bullets won't have any unique modifiers.
Also, there's a [url=http://www.playstarbound.com/roadmap/]development roadmap now[/url]

Cake? That must be them celebrating that they are finally done!
Holy shit.
It's happening?
:dance:

No, I'm pretty sure the percentage points to the release date
it's either 5/9+6 and 5+9/6
so it's 15th of May (5/15) for US and 14th of June (14/6) for the rest of the world

Good guess.
but it could also mean they bought way too much cake, nearly six times as much as they expected
or it's a random number
[QUOTE=Dukov Traboski;40140380]or it's a random number[/QUOTE]
no, there must be something behind the number
[QUOTE=PredGD;40140374]Good guess.

Possibly that too! There's almost 500 excess percentage points that could have been put to other areas of the development!
Fucking cakes

Of course there is, no doubt about that, and it might as well be us who solve the mystery! I mean SOMEONE will overanalyze the number in this thread if we won't.

god damnit, explains why the game isn't released yet

this is real fucking neat
Looking at the roadmap, I am surprised it is still a 2013 release date.
Lots and lots of stuff seems unfinished.

It's not really reassuring, no. Maybe I should just forget about this game altogether and be surprised when I one day tumble in to this thread and see all the "OMG 1 WEKK TO GO!!!!" posts. It happened with Bioshock Infinite.

Agreed. A bit too optimistic for my tastes with the 2013 rhetoric. Even on features they say they have at 100% complete, they say they want to do more with them and before release, not after.
i love the variety in biomes/planets

they look very atmospheric and interesting

haven't seen this one, dunno if it's new or not
what a huge sword
Sorry guys but from looking at the road map it's pretty clear they haven't completed even a single aspect of this game yet. Check back in another two years.
[sp]I'm kidding![/sp]
one thing i'm hype as fuck for is the potential custom characters you can make using the pixel arts
i can finally be the space furry of my dreams~~~

Is dat a mining laser I see?
The quests & missions tab seems to give the impression that there wont be player owned npcs. Seems the only ones you encounter will be independent.

Everything else is looking amazing though.

I am perfectly happy with this. I got real sick of building houses for those lazy fuckers in Terraria.
I like how the ship needs fuel
instead of just jumping around freely to 50 different planets, you have to deal with whatever one you find until you get enough fuel to leave

Except these lasers are pew pew lasers and not bzzt lasers.
Like Star Wars blasters and Star Trek phasers y'know?
Every time I decide not to be excited something like this happens.

Actually if you pay attention to Star Trek phasers they're the type I'm talking about. Just in the shows and movies they tend to be fired in short bursts because they're fairly powerful in the series. The only times I can think of where they used sustained bursts were occasions when they needed to destroy sections of something or heat something up rather than using them as weapons. But they do actually function the way I was talking about.

I can see a multiplayer career as a space fuel sheikh, bomb all of the planets that have fuel except one and turn it into a death star/diner&gas station and then bleed other players dry(dohhohhoo) with gas prices.

And then I turned Starbound into EVE gg

I loved it as it gave an actual incentive to build a somewhat functional base, and I think it was too easy as they needed nothing but a box with a table and a chair.
We're supposed to have crew in some form regardless of what the roadmap does not say about them, but that's all we know.
By the way the average of progress is about 70% if I calculated it right.
