Hot on the heels of my last hunting poll, where we learned that basically everyone is bored of hunting and it is a chore people do to keep portals open, a new poll!
Do you think that anything should take priority over making a hunting update? Or should it be the absolute top priority for devs.
Since the game runs on oort and the Oort supply is dwindling since fewer people hunt every day, IMO a lack of a hunting update is going to kill off this game. Please devs please!

Hunting update with new mobs needs to be the absolute top priority for devs
There are other things to do first including private worlds
Call me a rebel, but I feel there’s other things that need to be a higher priority, … such as fixing/fleshing out the paint system so all natural blocks can be manipulated in color without needing to wait for years (Still waiting) for an exo to pop up with the correct color one wants. I am very strongly against this idea some people have of color scarcity being “good” for the game, … when considering the game as a whole revolves around building, … having a limited palette of colors available really doesn’t help one’s creativity flow.
I voted against “Hunting update with new mobs needs to be the absolute top priority for devs”.
To me, this is 200% wrong.
If the PvE content is to be the priority for the devs, new mobs are absolutely NOT what’s going to save the game. What could save the game would be new activities to go along with hunting.
An example of such activity is the Dungeon idea where players could create dungeons like they create Sanctum edits during community events with the creation tools which are currently being developped.
Then there could be some new tools such as a way to place markers which, once in-game, would be replaced by randomly generated packs of creatures to be defeated by groups of players who warp there in small groups. One could imagine that there could be various markers depending on the enemies to be met. Like, minor to mega, and mega would be a boss, something like that.
Once in such a dungeon, a player would have limitations set by the devs such as the inability to break blocks or the inability to use a grapple.
These builds could be sent to the devs who would review them and add them in the rotation of publicly-available dungeons.
Basically just spit-balling a suggestion there, but THIS would be WAY MORE exciting to me than a new mob which has been in development for years.
Rental planets/additional game modes and PvM are very important imo. They are things that will bring in more players & things that content creators can use to help bring in new players. PvM is also very MMO friendly.
I’m sure a lot of people would complain if Oort became minable because economy this, economy that, lack of players to do hunts and stuff.
I mean, I would be up for it, if it was well balanced so that hunts were still the best way to get them, and if non-hunters could get some on the side.
I think it makes no difference economy wise…it will just shift to something else…no one will hunt so price of mats go up…it doesn’t matter… when one thing goes down there is always something else u can do to make coin…
Well, you guys gotta agree on why we need the Hunt update :
If the point of the Hunt update is to allow players to gather more Oortstones because we’re getting a shortage with the current means we have, the ability to mine Oort could also help, and it would be an easy fix.
Adding more activites to get Oort could also help (again, dungeons), and it would be nice for those who don’t like hunts. More options.
But I don’t see an easy fix to give a second breath to hunts.
Do you REALLY think a new mob will help ? I don’t even see how a few more mobs could help.
Titans could help. But I don’t think they would fit in the “Hunt” category. They look like something else.
Don’t have to agree on anything. People can have there own views on why they feel something is needed. I want more exciting aspects for hunters. More structure to this part of the game. I remember when I started this game and went to PS hunters Court yard and they had platforms for healers and tanks and what not to organize teams correctly. That was a year ago. So you can imagine the last time and aspect of hunting was updated. An update to this aspect could bring alot of players back that enjoyed hunting, which would mean more hunters, which would then mean more oort. I don’t feel oort should be mined, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Oort should be a hunters reward, no one else’s.
Yes also dungeons would be a nice addition. We could be tomb raiders. Which would be a type of treasure hunter. I would like that aspect with rewards at the end. Team or solo effort.
I want my own rental planet and build without worrying of anyone plopping a beacon down, or, something that happens a lot lately, to see suddenly a regen farm sprout up near you or scattered around the planet…
(I do that myself, I know, but still…)
I wanna be able to scream on a crappy day and nobody can hear me, ahhhh
Also, when the hunting update hits before that I will hunt a few times and get bored with it again, am rather sure of that, I rather be building on my rental planet when the hunting update hits, better for my ears too, I’ve heard Bob scream, ouchie!
Some people prefer to build, some people prefer to be a merchant, I want to hunt. I know rental planets is a wanted thing for several people. I’m not going to speak on that though becuase this post is about hunting and oort (just noticed again vote says private world’s ). Soo… @AeneaGames hear me ROAR!!!
). Soo…
