    This is coming from the perspective of a software developer (although I'm not a game dev).

    There is reason to worry since bugs are not fixed overnight, especially in a game that has been in development for over 2 years.…

  • Yea, referring to the ability to scan for silver, I should have said I'd like for sandstones to be scannable; since those are hard to find in the tall red grass of the grass plains, or they are hidden in caves.

  • I thought the lack of renewable resources was bad too but that is what pushed me to explore and discover new biomes; some of which are totally mind-blowing.

    With food & water being renewable, and titanium & quartz being aplenty i…
  • The blood kelp abyss should have all the quartz you need and more. The area around the Aurora has a lot of scrap metal, if you don't fear the reaper.
  • Some late game goals:
    - Deck your Cyclops to make it a fully functional mobile base (add planters, lockers, small aquarium, fabricators, etc)
    - Setup thermal power for a deep sea base (from a thermal vent)
    - Build a base at the flo…
