I am slowly losing interest in exo’s if I’m totally honest. Have not been to quite a few in the past weeks, tho it is probably my current mood that is causing this it’s still something that I didn’t before when my mood was a little low.
Am craving something new in the game, something really new! The coming update is nice and all and am looking forward to it, but it’s mainly because I wanna use concrete and probably that trellis stuff. Also like the simplification of some recipes so I can make more marble (if only the recipe allowed for any refined rock tho) and the coil repair stuff is amazeballs but most of the new blocks, meh, perhaps some use can be found when chiseling, both normal and lattice but still.
I would love something really groundbreaking, titans for instance would be fun but won’t keep me occupied all the time. Rental planets could actually, so much to do then suddenly!
But what I really, really would love are two categories of things, both I highly doubt we get since we haven’t heard the devs about it yet.
- items, logic blocks, scripting language with which we can make our own content
- way, way more textures on existing blocks, BUT even more so a way with which we can add more detail to our builds.
More detailed:
-
logic blocks, with conditionals, extended perms, etc.
-
even more advanced locks with more permissions, better would be if we could add things like “if player is member of guild xx AND player is holding object yy”. I just want to be able to create new content
-
normal looking blocks to which we can add conditionals like above and then suddenly open or disappear as if they are (trap)doors
-
switches to which we can hook up our lights, could even introduce more lantern type blocks for variation which we can all hook up to switches
-
as I said, more textures for existing blocks, but even better would be if we could create our own block types, a 16x16x16 pixels block, a sanctum editor like thing could be added for them, of course we can name them and add conditionals to them like above
-
even more so I would love what I hoped lattice chisels would do, where we can remove pixels from a block, say, again, that they are 16x16x16 and we can remove them all if we want to and they can be snug to other blocks, the little details we can add would be endless!
Of course there are many more things that one can think of, but these things would keep many people occupied for eons! Especially if we can pause with building, go to an exo that really feels unique (I mean, another Umbris planet with the samey colour palette, really?), T8 ones perhaps, go on hunts where the mobs don’t behave in a way we already seen a 1000 times, have titans to slay, other dungeon like things to do, etc.
And let’s not forget, rental planets, ahhhhh. Kinda thought those would have been released by now, the exo planet adding and removing works. Tho I think the issue is in the perms, settings and perhaps blueprinting stuff, I dunno.
I need a new spark !
Sorry for being very off-topic, just came to mind when I read your post, sorry about that
