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

[QUOTE=EnlightenDead;40299553]Thats..not true in any way?[/QUOTE] Don't respond to a post that has a fair point with examples to back it up with "no you're wrong". He's right, I mean, I don't agree entirely, I certainly kept a melee weapon around for common enemies, but late game there was no reason not to use firearms. They're faster, you don't need to get anywhere near the enemy and some of them do outrageously unbalanced damage for what they are.

I wanted to like melee weapons too, but they all behave the same with that sweeping overhead swing, which was efficient to be fair but it wasn't as satisfying as killing shit with the flail or shooting them to pieces. A shame we probably won't see flail weapons for Starbound.

[QUOTE=EnlightenDead;40299553]Thats..not true in any way?[/QUOTE] How are they not vastly outperformed? Especially against hardmode with things like the clockwork assault rifle or shotgun with crystal bullets or cursed bullets, or crystal storm. Melee gets out DPS'd hard, and you don't have to be up in a bosses face.

[QUOTE=Kegan;40299536]You can't sit there and tell me that melee weapons are useful against the bosses, they all fly around, they're huge, and generally hurt like hell when they touch you. Flails are great however but swords and spears are usually vastly outperformed by guns and spells.[/QUOTE] bosses are like 5% of the game what are you smoking

[QUOTE=krail9;40299910]bosses are like 5% of the game what are you smoking[/QUOTE] they're the only goal to work towards, aside from building. Combat wise, guns outclass melee. infact, after awhile you stockpile so much ammo you dont even need to use melee weapons to dispatch common enemies

[QUOTE=krail9;40299910]bosses are like 5% of the game what are you smoking[/QUOTE] I'd say more than 5%, seeing as you need to repeatedly fight hard mode bosses for the better gear.

[QUOTE=RedStar;40295957]I think a lot of people aren't naming NPCs after themselves, but making up names[/QUOTE] If I had done that I'd give the name Alice Cheshire but then it'd be odd to run into an npc with the same name as I plan on using in the game. :v: [QUOTE=KStyleAzure;40298525]Terraria's morning music is fucking aces though.[/QUOTE] I haven't listened to the Starbound soundtrack yet and plan on waiting for the beta. I actually for the most part enjoyed the Terraria soundtrack though. It did get a bit too repetitive after awhile though with so few tracks.

I already bought starbound but youre awesome

Just a quick question, will co op adventure mode have any form of story in it? or will it be completely sandbox. In which case I assume you can co op in story mode?

[QUOTE=Xavith;40301115]Just a quick question, will co op adventure mode have any form of story in it? or will it be completely sandbox.

Though for the beta there'll be no story quests

He's allowed his opinion on the music and liking or disliking certain music is an extremely subjective thing.

I really liked the corruption music. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrgNfn26uBQ[/media]

Holy shit. After listening to the Terraria soundtrack, I realised just how much better the Starbound music is.

Wow, 15 pages in 3 days? I didn't even get the time to figure out there was a new thread! What have guys been talking about?

[QUOTE=PredGD;40302475]Wow, 15 pages in 3 days? I didn't even get the time to figure out there was a new thread! What have guys been talking about?[/QUOTE] first it was the preorder, now its how much better starbound's music is over terraria's

It takes a little bit of effort, but it's a lot easier than farming up 500+ rounds of ammo just for one boss fight.
