What do you consider artificial difficulty in this

what I've found so far, not sure if there's any other essentials

>>385275996
all events you can't counter like solar flare and batteries breaking for no reason
higher difficulty per day instead of just based on colony wealth
ants spawning in mountains

Anybody else prefer lone start? I'm almost upset when I get to the point where I need a new colonist.

Now that I have a good psycho though I might start that body harvesting op I wanted to try

I just staerted this game rate my village

>>385276157
Yea that first year heat wave is a pain in the ass

>>385276157
ants are completely fine

solar flares and batteries breaking need to be axed though, as does heat wave if you don't have access to air conditioning (e.g. if you're tribal)

>>385276297
better than most

>>385276298
>>385276428
passive coolers cost like 15 wood and lower the temp of a small room to 15 C, what is hard about this

>>385276428
is there any way to stop batteries and wires from exploding besides mods? Do you just have to maintain a not-full system or something?

>>385276613
>researching first thing
fucking nerd

>>385276428
can you make it so ants don't spawn? if not they arent fine.

>>385276629
it's based on the amount of batteries you have, if you only have 2 or 3 batteries it will almost never happen

>>385276672
You can make ants never spawn by not being a little bitch that makes their base in a mountain.

>>385276916
b-but muh dorf fort

z levels when

>>385276916
yeah fuck off literally artificial difficulty because dev couldnt figure out how to make ai not shit to attack mountains so he had to make shit spawn inside. i want a cool mountain complex not some gay houses

>>385276157
you can change all that shit with a custom start. Just edit the scenario to disable those events and save the changes.

>>385276613
1. Passive coolers were a recent addition that didn't exist when I last played the game some months ago. It's good they're a thing now, HOWEVER

2. They still require research. Not a lot, but it's basically a death sentence if you get a heat wave without having them available. Given you oftentimes have more pressing priorities in tribal starts (e.g. upgrading your shitty clubs to shitty swords) this can happen something like 30% of games to instantly make you lose

3. No event should be a guaranteed death sentence. It's bad design to force the player to research something just to prevent an auto-kill.

>>385277000
You can have that, just be prepared for ants.

Non-mountain bases can have invaders instantly drop in the ceiling. I don't get what the big deal with ants is.

>>385277000
>i want a cool mountain complex
you mean you want to be impervious to all challenge? Without infestations, there is literally zero reason not to build in mountains since then you can't get drop podded on, can't get mortared, have access to shitloads of resources, have a natural funnel to create a killzone, and have super efficient temperature control. Even with infestations, you can trick them to spawning away from your base by making sure it's lit and you have a dark, wide open space in a mountain away from your home so the hive spawns in the dark area far away from your base.

>i want a cool mountain complex not some gay houses
Same, I always build inside of mountains and ants are not a problem.
Here's a couple of tips
Make all hallways in your mountain base at least 5 tiles wide.
Have at least 2 doors per room for kiting them.
Have your miners build gigantic fucking hallways to nowhere in order to have a better chance of ants spawning outside of the center of your base.
Instead of crying about the game just get good man.

>>385277504
>make all hallways at least 5 tiles wide
How does this help against ants?

Is there no way to build over water?

I'm trying to get electrical conduits over a small river but I can't find any way to build anything over the river. Is there a way to make like a bridge or something?

>>385275932
no nelson

>>385277570
It gives you room to maneuver and have like 9 dudes shooting at once without getting fucked.

>tfw waiting for devilstrand

>>385277408
the game just boils down to cheesing shit and that isnt challenging

>>385277408
that would be cool if enemies could bring saboteurs or something that would demolish walls and mountains stuff to get directly into your base

>>385277826
>the game just boils down to cheesing shit and that isnt challenging
You could say that about any game.

This game has numerous encounters that ensure you can't rely on a killzone funnel for 100% of enemies.

>>385277696
Please tell me you have the black characters assigned to pick cotton and devilstrand

>30 dollars
wow, is this shit worth it?

>>385278681
no pirate it the dev is a fag

>>385278681
it's DF lite with a sci-fi setting and a easy to use, fairly large modding scene

if that sounds good to you, go for it

>>385277408
>Reasons why humans actually lived in mountains
cool

>>385278745
That's all I had to hear! Fantastic.

>>385278681

If you like strategy games it is. If you're not into autism simulators then it isn't. I've put about 500 hours into gameplay.

It has flaws but it's a really fun base building/resource management/crisis management game.

>>385278681

It's sorta fun but not enough to hold my interests or complete any start. Always got bored and gave up or restarted. I really enjoy DF as well so I thought this would be an easy buy for me but I regret it. Pirate it and if after 10 or more hours you're still enjoying it consider buying.

what are sappers?

>>385278804
The problem was food.
Lots of nice native American cliff cities were abandoned because of that.

>>385279028

Teach me how.

df is actually fun though

>>385279097
well you don't see enormous cities and such in mountains, you see settlements and forts. Food was imported.

Just play JRPGs. Best of both worlds.

the problem was clearly giant bugs coming out of the walls

>>385277696
you should atleast wall your devilstrand off or animals will eat all that shit. and keep restrict your tamed animals aswell

>>385279437
To many entrances

>>385279437
You the dude I was talking about the cult mod with the other day? That building on the left looks suspiciously culty.

What's the newest version of the game?

>>385279770
0.17 or sth

>>385279883
Thanks.

>>385279437
