[QUOTE=GHOST!!!!;47014220]Hopefully the update will make it so you can destroy stone with force instead of just explosives, even if blowing everything up is fun.[/QUOTE] While i get that, it's a gameplay element. You're supposed to build something to deliver an explosive in order to overcome those particular obstacles, which is why I'm pretty sure they won't change that.
I'm mostly thinking of the fact that the only things we can really make in that instance are catapults that launch explosives, rather than making a Trebuchet that launches large rocks and shit. Like Crush The Castle.
Everybody did that, right? [vid]https://a.pomf.se/vgkndp.webm[/vid]
[QUOTE=Swebonny;47013637]Does your springs sometimes destroy the machine? I tried to make one, but damn the springs are too powerful. And the wood seems too coarse so the pusher gets stuck sometimes and wrecks the whole ballista.[/QUOTE] The only way that seems to work is to armor the interior and add shitloads of reinforcing struts across the outside. It will still occasionally shred itself somewhat so redundancy is important.

[t]http://i.cubeupload.com/KjOEGm.png[/t] Look at that positive camber brah All I've been doing is building a chassis and fucking with suspension I really want more independent suspension in this game.

now i want a modern-day version of this.

[QUOTE=Tmaxx;47016066]now i want a modern-day version of this.[/QUOTE] Can't really imagine what you're picturing that would be like
[QUOTE=Tmaxx;47011297]the wheels are no better than the rotating joints.[/QUOTE] Wheels increase the range of the catapult, since the arm swing creates a forward momentum in sort of rocking motion, doing so makes the counterweight fall slightly longer in a vertical motion, thus that's what makes the projectiles fly further, however that applies to a trebuchet where you have a long arm and big counterweight. Matter fact I think the building box should be extended in sandbox mode so we get to try more complex things, oh and what would be a nice addition to the game is a some sort of sliding mechanism.

[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;47016935]there is no building box for me in sandbox mode[/QUOTE] I got confused.
[QUOTE=Spor;47014584]Everybody did that, right? [vid]https://a.pomf.se/vgkndp.webm[/vid][/QUOTE] I won it the same way but not on purpose. I made a giant fucking lawnmower machine that looked like the thing from [I]Caligula[/I] and barely fit the box, but I didn't kill enough guys before the archers made it crumble. Then one dumbass soldier stepped on a nearby explosive, and the fires killed the rest of the army.

[QUOTE=Spor;47018913]Like this, but not ugly as sin: [url]http://store.steampowered.com/app/268650/[/url][/QUOTE] Ooh now that is cool. I'm gonna have to follow this one. However I'm not sure how Besiege would transfer to a modern setting; most of the games mechanics seem to be built around it's supposed time period.
behold the Stabber [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/FmsYjcZ.png?1[/IMG] simple concept, but pretty functional. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/9MRX7z9.png?1[/IMG] [editline]27th January 2015[/editline] I'm having trouble building machines that don't destroy themselves. The parts are pretty flimsly imo, they should add some more durable and sturdy materials for the base shape of the machine.
Use more braces

The dev is one of the nicest guys to ever make a game.

It's one guy making a game and the gameplay is phenomenal for an early access game. The gameplay is pretty damn good for a game about to be released. This isn't even a case of "let's see you do better," it's a case of "let's see anyone do better." The amount of talent that Nick, the guy making the game, has is amazing, and the game is getting better with every update.

That is great that it has been improved, and it makes me more interested in it. But he needs to update the store page then because right now it looks like ass. I mean, everything really just looks like an awful, unintelligible mess from those screenshots, which are the first thing anyone going to the store page will see. Its not a great first impression.
