Dungeons and stuff

Yea, that would be cool :smiley:

I really hope that the world builder evolves to the point where we can define not only sub-biomes, but also structures and their placement (in 3d space, not 2d like biomes). Temples, tombs, deserted towns, etc.

I.e., just like how you can declare biomes, have a structure generator as well. Maybe we can create prefab rooms, and tell the generator a # of rooms to connect together & whatnot. However, it very quickly gets into diablo-esque level generation (which is complicated as hell)…

Without going into too much detail: Titans should scratch this itch big style.

Discretely place objects are on the roadmap, just not a priority at the moment. But when we last discussed it was in reference decorative elements not buildings. Ben is right we will need to wait and see how the code for titans works first. @James described it as a world with a world. Which opens up some interesting possibilities.

Maybe a flying Titan could start to crumble and blocks or bigger chunks fall down to earth. From afar this would look insanely cool, I think.

I’m sorry I have to agree with @Vastar on this one. I love figuring out what to do. Yes, a little help would be nice but more like a shinier block instead of an arrow pointing on the direction. What i mean is, I really like more a subliminar story line or guidance for a sandbox game even for an adventure or rpg game (Boundless is everything i just say it seems, which is really good) which makes you think, search and conclude rather than ask and know.

Other than that:

That is, maybe, one of the hardest questions the developers can ask. And this is a sandbox game, you will always have something to do, at least: building and exploring. That is for granted, but I know what you mean, about the quest/story/dungeon stuff related, yes it would be nice to always have something to do. Maybe they could add worlds dedicated for PvP Team Deathmatch, Deathmatch, Build-Fortress-around-an-objective-to-protect/capture-in-a-certain-amount-of-time-then-kill-each-other-and/or-capture-an-objective-kind-of-match among other types of match. Yes, nice question there Cirlex.

I think I know, you are worried about the success of this game because you’re imagining all the possibilities it has to offer and all its potential and you just want it to fail and you want it to be the best(i think), like a “fear”. I have that as well, I think we all have by being here on the forum helping, it’s fine. You sure will help with development by demonstrating AT LEAST dedication for helping the game, IMO.

P.S.: I don’t try to be rude but it may seem so, i’m sorry if that happens. Just trying to help :smile:

Or just guides here in the forum like it is done in most (all) other games. :wink:

You will get forum/steam hub guides no matter what, that doesnt mean it would be less cool to have writeable books ingame, also worth mentioning that a certain type of gamers dont like using guides or wikis since it feels cheat, me included, i would rather find a book someone wrote ingame about the world hinting how certain things work.

Titans are an orgarnims or an ecosystem of their own, from what o’ve read. They have those big monsters defending them, they somehow are alive and have other stuff inside them. I love that the “end game” Boss is this Titan, love how we have to fight an ecosystem, really great feature.

But maybe they hve lasers too!

That I don’t agree entirely. I’m sure there will be other dungeons. And as @Clexarews mentioned, the Oort Temples. But this is Pre-Alpha, a lot of dungeons will still be made i presume. And maybe the beggining of the PGW trailer is a dungeon? cave dungeon? no?

I would like to see mini bosses, since Titans wont be able to be solo’d a smaller boss enemies that can be solo’d.

I understood it as in: You technically can solo a titan but it would take you ages and nerves of steel^^

I understood it as: You can grab some loot solo but you are not able to kill it alone.

Well that could be implied. But if you go of from what they actually wrote, nothing says you won’t be able to completely solo it^^

So rare monsters that spawn in each world and could be good targets to find, not just a single one but multiple, maybe drop rare items, a bit challenging to kill → more tasks to do before going to Titan, more to occupy yourself with.

I don’t think the one titan per world format would be broken, but some rare enemy spawns could help fix the need.
