I thought AOL took down the server

With the update, even if you don’t have the DLC, fluids have been rebalanced. You just have to place a pump every 200-250 tiles and everything flows.

For oil specifically, you don’t need anything but petroleum until what used to be late game. So just build a few (like a dozen) refineries and make sure that there’s actually oil coming in.

Once you actually need lubricant, and light oil, set up chemical plants to turn heavy oil into lube and light oil, and light oil into petroleum. It won’t be fast, but it won’t clog and it will produce what you need, slowly. You can use storage tanks as a buffer for your lube, light oil, and petroleum. Heavy oil isn’t used as a direct input for any assembler recipe.

I consider myself a Factorio apprentice, as I have yet to actually set up a proper train system. I’m slowly learning circuit logic, but can get to Gelba without getting stuck.

Don’t stress optimization, brute force works as well.

According to my father, who is an absolute Epic Wizard level computer programmer consultant, Factorio teaches you the basics of computer programming.

No, but Redneck Rampage was also a popular game for the Ti-82

TI-82 here. Thank fuck that I got out of HS in '96. The administration hadn’t caught on that we had Drug Wars, and a really shitty MechWarrior game floating around the school.

Is this the same legal team that sent Pinkertons to some M:TG fan, because WotC sent him the wrong box, two weeks early.

Mods. Bethesda would just fuck it up, and the modding community has done a beautiful job with our old love.

Top comment when I looked was, “I would pay the price of a dozen eggs to be able to play this DLC.”

I would be willing to pay 2 dozen eggs worth, and I would have to buy the game as well as the DLC.

This is an old game series, but it was proof that you could put as much blood and gore into a game as you wanted and still get a Teen rating in the US, as long as you’re just killing/dismembering Nazis.

BloodRayne. There’s a “cheat” to change a few of the visual effects. One makes her put all her weapons where she is actually storing them, and shows the unused weapons at all times. One makes the blood spray levels "more accurate to the actual amount of blood in the human body. The last one just makes her boobs bouncier.

Also they corrupted Tim Curry in RA3 so they deserve it.

Yeah, I remembered that NWN 2 was either 3.0 or 3.5. I really tried to design a campaign in that version, but just kept getting stuck/ losing my files.

Oh yeah. If it was based on 2.5 then that alone is gonna have you scratching your head. Gygax needed to be told to chill with the math nerd shit in that edition, but wasn’t.

Never played the original single player NWN, is it 2.5 or 3rd edition? I did play the MMO NWN on AOL. That one was 2.5 edition with the tile and grid system that previous TSR single player titles had used in the late '80s/ early '90s

Counterpoint. Mordor II.

Before or after the foundation decides to exterminate the entire human race?

Ok, so I’m 44, and my parents literally played D&D and video games with us growing up. I literally don’t remember a time in my life that I wasn’t gaming.

That being said.

According to Steam:

Factorio: 4,330 hours

Dyson Sphere Program: 2,506 hours

Skyrim: 2440 hours

Stellaris: 2,237 hours

Dungeon Defenders: 1644 hours

Terraria: 1630 hours

Fallout 4: 602 hours

Also I probably have well over 10,000 hours in 2.5 edition, 3.0, and 3.5 edition D&D. Only counting actual tabletop time.

That’s also not counting a fuckton of games that I have played on various consoles starting with a TI-99/A and and Atari 2600 as well as most of the early Nintendo consoles. I branched out once I got to college.

My numbers are actually quite low. I know multiple people that have 20,000+ hours in their favorite games.

Just in case you didn’t see the further replies, Open RCT is essentially Roller Coaster Tycoon 2, and you can find all the scenarios from RCT1 and RCT2 and download them, for free.

This you?

This you?

Dyson Sphere Program. 64 stars and hundreds of planets per game! 640 Dyson Shells to construct and defend.

Dyson Sphere Program is 3rd person 3-D and it has combat these days. I’m actually wondering what they haven’t implemented yet, since it’s still early access AFAIA.

Kiss Cam, and wacky mascot antics. At least that is what I’m led to believe. Never actually been to a sporting event with a jumbotron.

That has got to be one of the best sword fights in all of cinema, if not the best.

What they did to The Summerset Isles in ESO is a crime against Auriel and the 9 divines. I was expecting mushroom houses, and they made rivendell.

I’m not salty and bitter. Bethesda is salty and bitter.

Factorio and Dyson Sphere Program. At least don’t watch people like Nilaus and Dosh Doshington play the game until you’ve tried to make your own solutions first.

The blue demi-human vendor in Marbule. Not the guy at the entrance, the one you want is closer to the tavern, in an alleyway. Ignore the dog fighting arenas in the area. You aren’t high enough level to take on the entirety of The Mob at one time.

Factorio was in early access for 8 years. What’s your point? Indy games take a while to develop because they gain haters and naysayers, like you, logarithmically compared to the funding that they get.

So far, Dyson Sphere Program has been in early access for 4 years, and they have one hell of a game.

I technically own Project Zomboid, I just don’t really have any particular projects to complete in that platform, so I’m not exactly what you would call a fan of the game. I can see potential for an absolutely immersive RPG that could compete with Fallout 1 and 2 once the developers have time and funding to complete what they want to do.

Also, if it gets delisted, you will be unable to play single player or multiplayer. I found this out the hard way with Forza Motorsport 7 and Gran Turismo Sport.

I have the physical DVDs or BluRay disks for both games. Neither will work even for single player because you have to download the tracks from the server every single race. No server means no tracks.

Get it as soon as you can afford it. As you have already noticed, the price only goes up, and it never goes on sale. The people that made this game know that they made digital crack, and aren’t inclined to spread the addiction.

After 200 hours I have a “factory” on Vulcanus, Fulgora, and Gleba. I need to redesign all four factories, including Nauvis, at this point to use Foundries, and Electromagnetic Plants at scale, oh and Biological Science Labs. I have finally started learning circuit networks and train scheduling.

I had over 3000 hours in the game previously, got all the achievements that didn’t require a time limit, and had beaten Pyanodon, SeaBlock, Bob’s and Angel’s overhaul, and several other overhaul mods that I don’t remember, but I never managed to fully finish Space Exploration because of randomly generated items, and a complete inability to comprehend how the old circuit network worked.

Space Age is absolutely the best of all the overhaul mods combined into one single expansion pack. I cannot wait to get to the Shattered Planet and find out what no one has shown yet. I’ll be weeks behind them when I get there, I’m sure

I wouldn’t call Factorio AAA, but with their ever increasing price tag, Space Age certainly feels like one of the best made “AAA” Games of the year.

I’m 44 years old, and have been gaming practically since I was born. My parents played D&D, and video games with us kids.

Also a lot of those totals are artificially inflated because I can leave the game running to finish a long task, especially Factorio and DSP

Well they keep updating it, so it may not have been there, unless you made a chest sphere and didn’t label the chests.

Per my steam library:

Factorio: 3,375.4 hours

Dyson Sphere Program: 2,505.9 h

Stellaris: 2,236.6 h

Terraria 2,629.9h

Skyrim: 1,239.5 h

Dungeon Defenders only has 600 hours on Steam, but I’m well over 2000 hours between Steam and PS3/4

I’ve also got a few thousand hours in Just Cause 2&3, as well as several Gran Turismo games and Forza Motorsport games. Morrowind probably has 2-3000 hours, oh and I’m not allowed near Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri anymore.

Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger are probably up there as well since I’ll replay them every decade or so.

Second Life.

Then you zoom further out to find that the Blokkats have moved into the star system next door, and are eyeing Sol hungrily.

Jaguar XJR-15 was a great car, at least in the PlayStation version.

Each new planet is basically an overhaul mod. They did a great job incorporating the best parts of Space Exploration, Krastorio, Seablock, and a couple mods that either they made up entirely, or I didn’t know the names of.

Also the overhauls to the fluid handling and circuit networks make everything so much easier. I’m actually learning how to use circuits and trains, and I only have about 3000 hours of gameplay in vanilla.

My best advice is to rush bots, and leave even more space in-between your modular builds. Holy crap do I have some spaghetti because of squeezing things into my bus.

Factorio Space age is 4 expansions in one package. We definitely still buy proper expansions.

Ok, so a blue username normally means OP, a green one means mod. What the heck is a red username?

Thanks!

I don’t know where the kids are posting videos these days, I’ll have to figure out somewhere other than Imgur eventually, but I don’t post a lot of videos either.
