Starbound V3 - "A slightly more wet thud" - Games

I really want to role play the firefly crew in this game.

Bought a 4-pack for me and my friends because I love them. Sorry for not bothering to read the thread, but when is the beta expected to arrive?

[QUOTE=Fhux;40289794]This year.[/QUOTE] Oh boy!

Aaaah the Dishonored sale ends in an hour and I can only afford to get either this or Dishonored, and I have to go to class in like 5 minutes, meaning I have to get Dishonored before I go if I decide to get it. Wat do

Get this, Dishonored will last you maybe 20 hours, tops. Okay maybe not 20 hours, maybe more. Starbound will last longer, though.

Good point, and I was going to pre-order this yesterday anyway, I just forgot. But the other hand has Dishonored, and I was super excited for that too, cause stealthy magicy fun games, and I love those.

Easier to get to $15 later than $50.

Bah, I'm gonna be late to class, no Dishonored then I guess. Look forward to playing this though!

Wat do[/QUOTE] Get Starbound. More content. More playtime. More possibilities. Multiplayer. Moddability. Supporting indie company. Content after release (?). Robot knights in space. Energy people. You will make a pixel penguin happy. Soundtrack included. Dishonored was a good game, but it's chaos mechanic is quite annoying and arbitrary and gets into gameplay, and if you ignore it you feel like you beat the game wrong. Visuals are nice, Gameplay is nice and the story is above average. Also you're in a bloody Starbound thread what do you expect. [editline]15th April 2013[/editline] i see i'm late to the party as always.

[QUOTE=Roxerg;40290118]Content after release (?)[/QUOTE] IIRC Tiy said there'll be a dedicated team for updates, so yeah, content after release.

I would have bought Dishonored, you should have plenty of time to get $15, and pre-ordering Starbound now doesn't get you anything less than pre-ordering in a month's time. [editline]15th April 2013[/editline] That's what I get for not updating the thread before posting, I suppose.

Anyone know how much the game will cost?

[QUOTE=Ax3l;40290262]Anyone know how much the game will cost?[/QUOTE] Between $15 and $20, depending on whether they will raise the price after pre-ordering is done. I seem to recall that they mentioned thinking about it, but I haven't heard any solid information. You can pre-order at [url]www.playstarbound.com/store[/url], in case you didn't know.

Question [url]http://playstarbound.com/store/?tier=tier1[/url] if you select the "purcharse as gift" option, do you have to put your email or the email of the person you want to give it?

Fossils? Fucking sweet

1,350+ Named NPCs? Hope they have enough NPCs for everyone!

Chances are NPC names are gonna be randomized.

[QUOTE=rovar;40290924]1,350+ Named NPCs? Hope they have enough NPCs for everyone![/QUOTE] NPCs names are probably going to be randomly chosen at random from a pool of names, and everyone who took the Gold Tier and above will have their chosen name included in the pool.

[QUOTE=Someone4956;40290977]Chances are NPC names are gonna be randomized.[/QUOTE] They'll have to type out a lot of names for everyone's Diamond copy.

[QUOTE=rovar;40290924]1,350+ Named NPCs? Hope they have enough NPCs for everyone![/QUOTE] [quote]Added to NPC name generation[/quote] The names are randomly generated. It just adds the customer's name to the pool.

[QUOTE=Paramud;40291054]The names are randomly generated. It just adds the customer's name to the pool.[/QUOTE] With that many names they could just have people's names. Oh and preorder stretch goal comment sections are just charming.

[QUOTE=Paramud;40291054]The names are randomly generated. It just adds the customer's name to the pool.[/QUOTE] Gonna be weird for these people that put names in as like "Colonel Alí-en SkullCrush" and he's your ships janitor.

I made an NPC named Doop I could have named it something other than myself, but solaire of astora is copyrighted.

Then you use something like Soul-Air of Ass-Torah or something.

decided to gauge their sales a bit, from 1 AM to the timing of this post they made about 40k, so the current rate per hour is about 3636.36~ if they maintain roughly that rate, about a couple days we'll see the next stretch goal.
