Thread for new RimWorld DLC

What is your favorite biome to play in?

>>715283903 (OP)
Didn’t even know a new DLC was coming out. What’s it add?

I never have met anyone who played this game that wasn't a reddit rick and morty dude weed bro

Woah, le heckin war crimes simulator!!

Cannot wait until ICE starts rounding you liberal faggots up

>>715284102
It adds space travel. Like SOS2 except not extremely jank.
Also a bunch of misc. stuff like more animals and biomes.

>>715283903 (OP)
how do get good at rimworld? I've tried off and on over the years but never had any luck sticking with it or getting a colony going

>>715284693
You have to stick with a colony and get it going.

Get comfortable with the idea of things going wrong and losing. The game simply cannot be enjoyed at its peak if you view it a linear progression. Losing is fun. Abandoning your colony and starting over is fun.

>>715284324
Hey man, it's just a game bro

>>715284102
>DLC
>no threads
>no one knows what it is

haha dead game

>>715284901
>Get comfortable with the idea of things going wrong and losing.
i think that might have been one of my big issues. i kept trying to micromanage everything and quit whenever they started to inevitable fall apart.

>>715285057
It just hit its all time peak today so I think it has been pretty successful actually.

>>715284693
Set the difficulty low while you follow the tutorial and get a foothold, then ramp it up if it's feeling slow. Don't get planning paralysis, since you don't really know what a good colony looks like yet, just build what you need at the moment. Add a new DLC into the mix whenever you are about to start a new colony.

>>715285090
It can be a tough thing to get used to

Are there opportunities for non-gravship bases to do orbital stuff? Even if it's a rare occurance.

>>715284973
Fuck off moralizing grandstand fag

>>715287553
Yes. You can build a grav anchor and do orbital stuff then return to your base.

>>715285228
hey buddy, /vg/ is one block down

>>715288145
chill, dude

>>715284693
I believe it's just been nerfed but raxmaxing used to be a huge game changer.

Making 1/2 rooms with everything but the kitchen/food storage was ridiculously efficient, even the mood debuffs were cancelled by the fact that you only needed to get good wealth in a couple of rooms, and your pawns would actually socialise. The efficiency in terms of travel time, wealth management and just general logistics (particularly with regard to expansion) made it so much superior to personal quarters it was insane. Personally my heart wants every pawn in their place, but after one raxmaxxed run my heart was overruled.

Also, respect armor.

>>715290115
You missed
>reroll your pawns for 145minutes
step

>>715290115
Many such cases.
After my 10th time of doing this I decided on a new approach. Straight vanilla, and add mods slowly over time depending on what I think is needed.

How is run and gun still not base game?

>>715290996
because colonists shoot sideways in base game

Arid Shrubland is the best biome

>So fucking ill right now I cant even enjoy it
Go on without me lads...

>DUDE JUMP FROM CELL TO CELL TO SEE EVEN MORE PROCEDURALLY GENERATED SLOP

Temperate forest. I also really like vanilla ice cream

peninsula pretty cool

>>715292971
>I also really like vanilla ice cream
Vanilla gets such a bad rep. It's delicious.

>>715284693
have a melee pawn with brawler/tough trait, armor that mfer up and have him hodor

Hey Anon, show us all your swastika ship. I know you made one.

Being able to build shuttles is pretty great. my colony is surrounded by mountains and large hills so traveling anywhere, even if it was just 10 tiles away, wasn't really worth it and using drop pods and sending materials to build more was a hassle.
500 weight and pretty good range with 400 fuel (and ability to carry a LOT more as cargo is a gamechanger
finally i can go grab a third mechlink, a bunch of treasure and finally get good use out of long-distance scanner

>>715293334
sorry, just an accidental penis design. again

Haven't played Odyssey yet, but have seen some videos. Seems like 1.6 + Odyssey combines quite a lot of mods together in a more refined, put-together state, and adds probably the best performance-improving update the game has ever seen.
Now, the real question is this:
What mods would (You) like to be born to expand 1.6 and Odyssey?

>>715295382

didn't intend on replying to anyone my bad

I use God Mode to revive my pawns.
I use God Mode to kill raids that are difficult.
I have fun and don't care that it's "cheating".

>new game
>custom xenotype super giga vampire that is stronger but also has much bigger downsides
>first raid

>super giga vampire has both his eyes burned out
lol

well, got fucked by the new cyclops mechanoids. don't seem to deal a lot of damage but if they get a shot off they will cripple a colonist and litter it with wounds to almost every bodypart

Ideology: I want to use the epicurean precept (alpha memes) and the shipborn precept.

Which structure/style would make the most sense? I have both vanilla ideology expanded and alpha memes btw. Obvious one for epicurean would be hedonist, but that doesn't fit the vibe of a shipborn imo.

is 5 inches of girth good enough

>>715297004
I don't use dev mode but I absolutely over-curate my starting pawns and starting locations

>figured Scarlands sounds interesting
>map is filled with corpses that my new arrivals end up depressed
I fucked myself over with this one

Is there a mod that stores what happened to a given body part for longer/permanently? I like at a missing eye or a leg and being reminded of what happened to it.

>>715297004
>have one pawn with 10+ medical
>build wall + kill box + trap hallway first thing

You literally cannot lose after that anon.

>>715298668
Bro your supremacist + corpses: don't care?

>>715297693
spike core or morbid

>>715285228
That sounds boring as shit, actually.

>>715283903 (OP)
what would this mean for my massive mod list from 1.5?

>>715299865
I'm impressed how many have updated for 1.6 so far

But your 1.5 list will still be ripped to shreds. Don't worry, you can spend 12 hours looking for new mods to replace them!

Do I have to install the gun autism mod so that my pawns don't just spin in circles firing blindly?

>>715300067
IDK why i thought everything would be fine, probably repressed the trauma upgrading from 1.4

>>715287553
I think you can build a shuttle to do the orbital objectives without needing a gravship

>>715298668
Rough living. Though leave the trees alone.

>>715287553
orbital tech and shuttles don't require gravship research so i'd presume yes. will check

>>715297004
it's fine if you're having fun

>>715298707
There's a bounty mod where you can put bounties on raiders who injure/kill your pawns

>>715301462
>>715287553
when using a shuttle, your range is pretty limited so you will have to wait for an orbital object to drift close enough for boarding. getting the opportunity doesn't seem uncommon, might get one every few days but if you want to reach a particular one then you are out of luck

>>715297004
I don't go this far but If a pawn gets one shot while wearing a helmet and in full cover you bet your fucking ass I'm reloading.

>>715285136
Those things lie constantly. Even Valve puts their Steam Deck as a top-seller, yet everyone knows that hardly anything buys it. It's all just smokes and mirrors to try and these things look more popular than they really are too try and boost sales.

You know, I thought the DLC was going to be a shitty rip off of SOS2 and you know what? After playing it for a good few hours. I was right. The gravship mechanics are like a watered down shitty version of SOS2. The only novel and imo redeeming elements of the new DLC are the new weather systems and tile modifiers. So fucking obnoxious that they took mods like Designator shapes, but then made them worse. What's that? You want to create a structure that's a solid rectangle? Sorry! No can do!

I bought the DLC purely because I think this DLC has the potential to be on Biotech's level for mod integration and in the hopes that they make an SOS3 with Odyssey as the foundation. Cause this ain't it chief.

>>715299865
1.6 adds multithreading to some core things. Improves start up times and end game colonies. It's worth the update purely for that.

>>715307220
Dont care didnt ask
SoS2 is an ancient pile of shit that barely worked
The level of polish is completely different

>>715306786
Shut the fuck up, random retard on the internet that has no evidence except for the conclusion he came up with his 20 IQ brain.

>>715307572
Oh I'm sorry do you own this thread? This board? Are people not allowed to criticize this DLC that took 14 mods and packaged them into one polished turd? I give credit where credit is due, and the few things it added that weren't stolen ideas, are actually good.

>>715307942
He’s saying that SOS sucks tho
And he’s right, it does, Tynan did a way better take on space mechanics

>>715307942
>People want certain things and make mods that add them
>Take all that stuff and make it DLC with a much higher level of quality and polish
>Somehow that's a bad thing

how to cheese a psychic suppressor? I don't have any EMP or armor I started playing and I'm like 3 seasons into a new game (permadeath)

Fucking 10 DLCs and you still can't make your pawns into ghost in the shell-style full cyborgs. They still have squishy, weak torsos and heads. Gayyyyy

>>715309237
Inside your colony or outside of your map chunk?

>>715283903 (OP)
one thing I thought was always bullshit was how easy it was to have a finger or toe ripped off. like it would happen within an hour in so many games I tried making. Also at the time all you could do to fix it was to make prosthetic hands and it was fairly late tech. I downloaded a mod that I think fixed it but I still think it was bullshit and really unnecessary. couple that with the difficulty being tied directly to how much loot or "value" you accrued every story made it feel like progressing felt kinda not worth the time. Like I'd be getting attacked by way harder enemies just because I had a shit load of food, thats not really fun IMO

comfy base sim though.

>>715283903 (OP)
Anyone know of a game that has identical base building? I want to play another rimworld that isnt this.

>>715309421
YOU'RE gay. YOU are.

>>715309237
Suppressors are the worst, just cheese it with an orbital strike or something if it's surrounded by a large mech cluster

>>715309421
Either mod it or wait until they make it an official piece from just taking it from a mod.

>>715309805
Nuh-Uh. What's even the point of a pawn with every machine body part in the game if they can still die from a single arrow to the heart from a caveman?

>>715309440
outside
>>715309808
>cheese it with an orbital strike
how do I do that? I haven't played Rimworld since like 2018

>>715284324
But how does this affect you personally?

>>715310067
Then you can just walk there by making caravan and destroy it no need to fight mechs because they are all asleep.
The suppressor will be inside a building with nothing else inside of it.

>>715285228
I did this but a lone mad scientist mechanitor machine cultist
0 in every stat but double passion as well
New scenario with the gravship and mechanoids hunting me down but also anomaly for rituals and cosmic horror
He's travelling around the world trying to fix his ship and unlock the mysteries of the abyss
Eventually he will control the mechanoids and become a new dark god
All by himself and his army of mechs
It has been quite fun so far
You can actually use your combat mechs now, landing and raiding the dungeons and complexes
Not to mention landing an entire ship on an enemy settlement and just having mechs pour out and rape them while turrets mounted on your gravship immediately open fire
Surprisingly having a blast

>>715309421
This sounds so easy to solve with mods. Why complain like a little bitch that you are not catered to by the game dev instead of doing the minimum amount of work and transform the game yourself with all the options that exist?

>>715310471
I don't have any caravan animals but the site is only 0.5 days away should I just send two dudes with a couple of meals?

>>715284324
There was a time the only people playing Minecraft were autists on /v/

>>715310593
Because this is /v/eddit.

Temperate grassland with a mountain, large river, and highway going through it.

Found a nice location for a base.
>Surrounded by rock, tunnels guarded by bugs.
>Muffalos aplenty and hot springs available.
>10 fucking steam geysers.
It is slow to travel outside but once the spaceship is up and running it's a non-issue.

>>715310593
This game has literally zero flaws then since you can just get a mod. I'm they're all high quality and well balanced.

>>715289653
Incorporating popular mods into a base game is cool. But Tynan is a greedy kike and does it the worst way possible by packaging them as an overpriced DLC and game update that specifically breaks the free mods it is supplanting. If the DLCs were at least cheap rather than like 2/3rds of the base game price each it probably wouldn't be so bad.

>>715310979
No there are plenty of things you can't mod but you named one of the easiest things to mod. Also it's pretty rich to imply that the official DLC is high quality well balanced content when Rimworlds DLC literally feel just like stolen together mods.

>>715310710
Yes, just avoid waking them up. Proximity sensors often spawn nearby.

>>715295320
Is that movie any good?

>make a good game make it easy to mod

>make millions, repeat

kek based
how many years did it take for tynan to incorporate shelves into the base game btw? 4? 4 years for shelves

>>715311030
$25 is cheap tho, that's like a half hour of work for a man with a grown up job

reminder: it costs like $30 to go to a movie theatre these days

>haven't bought the DLC
>base game patch for this DLC has a corrupted Steam download
Did this happen to anyone else? How fix?

>>715284693
Give people bedrooms, feed them fine meals, build patios and lights outside.

>Remove the ingame ads and I will think about playing your paid update

>>715307942
Any game that has been out for a long time with a highly active modding community will inevitably run into the problem that anything they would want to add in an update or DLC already exists as a mod.
Minecraft just accepted this and added popular mods like smooth lighting and the horses from Mo' Creatures to the game.

>>715313041

Volumes.

>>715312506
The if you go to the general threads for this game on /vg/ and look at people posting screenshots of their games. Virtually all of them mod their pawns to look like furries or anime girls, and they all have the RJW pedophilia/rape mod installed. That tells you everything you need to know.

>>715311541
Went to cinema to see it back in the day and it felt kinda dated even then, as memes lived and died faster then. But it's good fun and might be an trip to the memory lane for some.

>>715313862
i genuinely forget sometimes just how many unironic corporate cocksleeves use this site everyday.

>>715283903 (OP)
This game has become a bloated piece of shit where every expansion is a let down and moves further away from what I otherwise enjoyed about the game. Why would they try to tack this onto the game rather than start fresh and actually design the game around being able to travel in a ship. It's going to be like moving caravans and you're still never going to encounter anything interesting.

They won't. You already paid, now they know you'll tolerate it. Every time they shove another skinner box mechanic or overlay ad into a "premium experience," you're still on the hook. Just wait for the modders to fix it like they always do, or stop giving them your money.

Post comfy bases.

The obelisk cloned her.

I like the abandoned landmarks. I found a huge space port and made it my base. I don't have to build walls. All the loot and convenient rooms. It's an easy base to expand off of.

Dang it peaked again already? It already peaked before with 68k but now it's at 85k. People have been sleeping on this game in their library for a while until a new DLC came out.

The DLC is out? Is it any good?

Even if it's not, I guess it's time to spend the next 3 hours finding the perfect seed for a new colony.

>>715317417
God I wish I could just click the random button and live with my choices

Shill posting everyone.

So did they actually improve performance with the multithreading?
Can I have more than 30 pawns in my colony without tps noticeably dropping?

Does anyone use Gaurlanlen trees ever? I'm going to try using them this game because my base is (gonna be) fuck hueg and 4 free haulers doesn't sound too bad.
Speaking of hueg bases. Is there any way to have pawns (hunting, farming, etc.) drop off items at a generic drop point only to then have haulers automatically bring them to their respective store rooms? Having to trek through an entire mountain base to drop some minor shit off is so insanely inefficient when you want your working pawns to actually spend time working

>>715317956
Can't speak to 30+ pawns but it does both run and load noticeably better/faster in all of my games so far

>>715318206
dryads have just been powercrept to oblivion
it's not efficient to have to dedicate an entire pawn to them when that pawn will do more good for your colony doing anything else

>>715317480
Me too, but I am going to be spending the next several hours clicking that refresh button.

>>715318521
Probably. Still gonna try to make it good this game. Iirc. it's a little over 4h of pruning at 20 Plants for 24h worth of 4 haulers. Shouldn't be too bad, all things considered. The pawn in question is only good for plants and cooking anyway

>>715318668
bro they're all the same

>>715318668
I would have picked top right in a heartbeat and created a mountainbase with an entrance behind that lake.

How the fuck do I sell all my shit? I have an alpaca farm making winter clothes, but people either don't want them or don't have enough money to buy all my stock. I'm researching the spaceship parts to get off the planet, but I'm gated by this. First successful colony run on ezmode btw

>>715319286
I want the majority of the base to be outside the mountains.
>>715319226
Maybe if you're retarded.

>>715319479
Caravans, orbital traders, or mods

>>715319572
Yeah but like I said, people who want them have no money and orbital weapon traders don't want my shit. Should I just make other shit instead or something?

How do you mod the GoG version?

>>715318891
>it's a little over 4h of pruning at 20 Plants for 24h worth of 4 haulers
the carrier dryads are absolutely horrible haulers anon
a healthy pawn can run laps around a full team of dryads since they take a smoke break after every haul job

>>715319697
I'm pretty sure there are mod managers you can download that'll pull mods from steam. For your clothes, you'll want to sell to bulk goods traders

>>715310580
a single lone scientist playthrough sounds kino. kind of like Dr. Stone

>>715319902
Thanks anon. How do I find bulk clothes traders reliably?

>>715319709
I get that but even then you pay 4h to get what is essentially 4 x 24h worth of hauling work done. It can't be THAT bad.
Besides, can't Dryads carry bigger stacks than pawns? I believe in them. I will make it work

>>715320035
>How do I find bulk clothes traders reliably?
You're going to have to form a caravan, walk over to the civil settlers and sell to them. I don't remember if tribespeople settlements buy apparel and I'm pretty sure the Empire doesn't

>>715320110
>It can't be THAT bad
you'd get better results just having the gardener haul for 4 hours themselves

>>715320305

>>715284901
One of my best games left me with a single colonist with grievous wounds, who was forced to abandon the base to the xenos. The struggle of surviving infection in the wilderness, slowly building up strength, founding a new village and ultimately returning for revenge with a new party was great. If I'd just savefagged my way out of it I wouldve missed out on the best part.

Alright boys, which seed are we picking.

h..hayai!

>>715315636
I really have to fight my instinct to make large underground lab complexes.

Is there any point in rivers and coasts aside from fucking your layouts up? Is there a single fucking reason whatsoever to use something other than mountainous with marble+granite?

>>715321128
Natural defenses for people that dont want to use kill boxes.

>>715320845
THIS is the power of a true scion of the Empire!

>>715284693
I don't; play this as much but it's like Dwarf Fortress: losing is the "fun".

An example for me was back in DF I was mismanaging food and beer, so a child ended up dying in the main barracks. Suddenly all of my dwarves a freaking the fuck out because there was as ghost dwarf child haunting their quarters. Being in experienced I just tombed up the barracks and built a new one. It was an amazing experience and incredible lore for my settlement.

Having one unknown mod be the culprit for something going wrong when you have a 500+ mod list is suicide tier.

>>715321128
>rivers
waterwheel energy is pretty gud
>coasts
...fishing in the dlc maybe?

>>715321743
Pretty sure there are logs you can check to help narrow down which mod or which file is causing the breakage. What is a nightmare though is when you have a bunch of mods that have contextual additions to them based on other mods. So it can be some seemingly unrelated mod that is adding some item that breaks because it saw that mod was installed, and narrowing that down is fucked.

>>715321743
>a 500+ mod list is suicide tier.

>>715319479
Pick a starting spot with a good trade route or two.
Barter rather than returning with the goods - lances, steel, plasteel, components etc. will always have some use, even if it's just turret production. Medicine and genes and such are good to have.

New DLC is kind of ass, I had more fun with Anomaly and that was also kind of ass.

>>715322415
i think 1.6 update is better than 1.5 was though

>>715320962
>large underground lab complexes
are there any mods that are dedicated to this sort of thing? the Evil Genius games were a disappointment to me since it was more of a stealth game than managing a mountain base. i want to be able to have emergency alarms and big metal doors to put the base into lockdown mode

>>715322465
The optimization and multithreading put 1.6 as probably the best patch ever

Odyssey is fine, not the greatest not the worst. It has some potential for good mods but we'll see if anything of value comes out.
So far, Ideology = Biotech -> Odyssey -> Royalty -> Anomaly

How's the new update stuff? Haven't had a chance to check it out.

thank god the DLCs for this game are all free

>>715321743
that's at least 9 checks, even less if you remove all the XML mods in your list

>has no killbox
you're playing it on peaceful, aren't you...

>>715324178
Nope, but I do use some mods to do distance and wealth scaling. I fundamentally hate killboxes. Al;l these shots are pretty early on. Once colonies get big enough, I have large gatehouse-like bunkers that I use, but not killboxes. In those screenshots, each building has a defensive position which usually works fairly well for the first few years. Like actually being on the frontier.

>>715324087
i remember playing with a detailed diseases mod. maybe that can be something cool to have if you want to do the underground lab larp. capture raiders and force them to do drugs for mkultra schizophrenia or inject him with a super virus and accidentally get your whole lab infected

>>715324114
I chose this one

>>715322732
The game will force new colonists on you if you don't have enough so I don't believe you. That said, you can reform your ideology and get a ritual to summon new people.

Are there any mods for filtering the build tab buttons on the hud? Kind of want to filter vanilla stuff like "Zone, Production, Temperature" etc with dlc or modded lists being seperate.

How the fuck is Allow Tool's functionality not vanilla yet? For fuck's sake

>punishes you for doing well simulator
Fuck this game and its scaling.

Man the Odyssey start is hard. The mechanoids chasing you off every tile after a while wasn't something I was aware about. I'd have rushed hydroponics if I knew, we're always starving from having to abandon the farms.

>>715325036
Can't you just do a few camp raids for pemmican?

>>715325036
Just go from zone to zone and hunt everything to extinction and harvest any fruit or vegetables you can find. Once you can get a grav anchor you can make a permanent settlement.

>>715326723
Killboxes are great for early/mid game and if you aren't dealing with insect infestation actively inside your mountain base. AI pathing leads enemies to the path of least resistance into your base, so don't put doors (or leave them open) on either end of your killbox, and raiders and maddened animals go right for it. Line your killbox with traps and set up a nice shooting area on your base side for colonists to pick off whatever makes it through. You can get really complex with heating the killbox up too, but I've never bothered with that. I put an access door (closed) near the entrance of the killbox and make a prison nearby that so I can imprison my foes more easily. I've had a 50+ person colony before...

I keep restarting this game, I enjoy the beginning, but once things get big, it doesn't feel all that cozy anymore.
Any tips to make myself stick it to the end?

>>715331357
If you don't plan to make specific areas pressurized or not then yeah. I have my interiors stone (and an additional layer of stone for the actual exterior until I can make it out of plasteel).
Check out the "i" button on the walls and doors too to check for "Airtight" or not. Fucking learned it the hard way when I saw steel doors are airtight while stone walls aren't

its so nice of Tynan to host it on Gog

Oh hey the big and small yokai mod is already updated for 1.6, might be time for oni spacemen
Looking through my list I noticed one mod that said it was released with a brand new version for 1.6 rather than updating it, I noticed that the name of the mod was changed to mark it as legacy but there might be others that did the same without giving you that easy way to tell so I might need to go through every mod

>>715332680
and I suppose I should take 1.6 as the excuse to stop hoping and unsub from any mods that weren't update for 1.5

>>715331610
make a journey to the abandoned ship, it will force you to start over several times and adapt to various biomes, you will also have to gather food, resources, equipment and pack animals.

Is there ship to ship combat like SOS2? Or it is lame and gay watered down copycat?

>>715321485
>Being in experienced I just tombed up the barracks and built a new one
instead of, you know, tombing up the rotting child?

>>715334010
No, you will need to wait for SOS3

With the area hopping can you start off with smaller map sizes and then set them to be larger once you are more established?

>>715334010
sos2 ship combat was fucking awful though

>>715330806
what do you mean? It's not even modded.

>>715297004
I mean if you have fun who cares. This game is meant to be a story simulator so if you want to be god for your boys all the power to you.
For me? It's the mecha piloting mods so I can feel like I'm in a mech anime

>Gravship always destroys your colony
who the fuck designed this

>>715337028
Gravship is supposed to be a mobile colony.
Also there's some grav beacon thing you can build on a tile to keep it from being destroyed, letting you build a more permanent base.

>>715337028
You're supposed to build a larger ship for your colony, Get a grav anchor if you want to keep the area. But mechanoids kill squads will keep attacking.

>>715325831
do you have a sign that says 'dead giraffe storage'?

I do like that show (although I haven't watched the latest season), but weed is illegal in my country, and I'd rather it be this way. Frankly, I wish tobacco was banned, I'm really fucking tired of smokers.
>Woah, le heckin war crimes simulator!!
Yes. This sort of culture predates Rimworld, it comes from Dwarf Fortress and its player base's hate of elves. Although the Kitfox community managers have been trying to crack down on that after the Steam release. Why are you acting like a community manager, Anon?

I don't think there's anything in any of the dev made scenarios you can't add to custom scenarios actually

>>715340209

That's dumb. Russia has a population of over 140 million. Even if you use the absolute worse case scenario schizophrenic casualty estimation, the average Russian male is still more likely never even having been to the front, let alone dying there. Also, I'm still updating my mods. A Dog Said... Animal Prosthetics 2 will be updated either today or tomorrow, and I'm not going anywhere since I'm not eligible for drafting.

Being good at rimworld means you're good at eliminating wealth. Raids scale with your wealth so actually doing good is bad, you need to eat what you kill and leave no excess.

It's pretty retarded and actually minmaxxing production means you end up losing

You were not supposed to point that out, anon...

>>715340325

What is this shit supposed to mean? One of your colonists is doing the researching, just like one i doing the cooking and the building.

>>715290272

Don't buy the DLC and play the mod instead if you think that's the same experience because there are some superficial similarities.

Too bad you'll die before you get to that point. After you have a killbox and maxxed out defences you can obviously do anything but if anons have trouble surviving the issue is most likely wealth
>Minmax bullshit
That's how the game is designed to be played above easy difficulties, the game aggressively punishes wealth accumulation and it's the thing that ends runs

>>715341182
I shrimply reload my saves if things go wrong. That's a feature of the game. Same as modifying storyteller settings to disable instant deaths or diseases or unwavering.

Speaking of mechs and the scenario editor what does the overseen chance here mean?

>>715339946
there is a "get a grav core for free" event that can happen very fast and literally just dumps one with some mech corpses and a few hundred gravpads with it. The equivalent for getting a mechlink is not nearly as easy to complete but you'll be down 2 people and wont have a space suit.

>>715320845
The fact that walking a short distance takes multiple ingame hours is my single big issue with games like Rimworld.
Everything else scales nicely, but walking happens in real time while the game world progresses in game time and I can't think of a way to solve that.

How many components is it to get a ship up and running from the free grav core?

anyone have any recommended utility mods? i'm trying to keep shit mostly vanilla for the first couple runs of the new DLC, but looking for any essential QoL type mods.

>>715341814
3 for the pilot console and 4 for each engine you build. The chemfuel is probably the bigger issue since you only have one guy to make it.

I have a metric fuckton of wood and a good constructor. How do I actually sell my furniture? I've had all kinds of trade caravans visit me but none of them ever want to buy stuff like beds or chairs.

>>715342745
Yes, you won't be able to sell furniture. Turn that wood into statues instead with an artist.

>>715342056
Option 1: wait for bulk goods traders
Option 2: send caravans with your furniture to trade with settlements

I want to like rimworld but there are always five thousand little things that make me dislike the game when I pirate it to try it out every ~3 years or so. The trading autism, managing everyone's walking speed being extremely important, how it's about handling 3-5 people's mood swings with the same research tree every game with 50% of your gameplay being sitting and waiting for research.

It's so close to being good, maybe this time I'll try some mods in 6-12 months as they update.

Damn I sure got storied. Except there's not even a story to tell. It feels like the game just wasted my time and I don't feel like starting over again because it takes so fucking long to get anywhere with research and colonist skill levels. Boy I sure love everyone getting food poisoning and slogging because I don't have a 6+ cook isn't this FUN?

I remember watching the guy play this game and getting the Royalty ending only for one of his pawns to have a mental break and hide in his room when everyone was fleeing into the Stellarch's ship and got left behind.

That shit was hilarious.

So there's nothing new for cross Anomaly - Odyssey content at all like the Starjack xenotype for Biotech, Shipborn meme for Ideology, or the permanent shuttles from Royalty at all, Ludeon couldn't even come up with something basic like getting a quest to explore low orbit research stations with new entities that broke containment or a flesh heart that infested an asteroid or some shit.

Should I start a fresh game and work to Odyssey or just do Odyssey from the start?

I would have to destroy my base anyway, right?

RimPy was the modloader I use since everyone recommended it, and was a good tool that autosorts which is a must if you want to modmaxx, and pulls shit from them steam workshop, never gave me any hassle.
It recently got a lot of flak for being closed source and some paranoid individuals, so now there's RimSort which is another modloader which is community open source, no clue what it does differently or if it can still pull from steam workshop, but the option is there if you care.

>>715341717
It's always like that in city/base building games.

If I made such a game I'd try to have speed boosts, accelerating and deaccelrating depending on distance from previous task and the next task. It normalises distances but can probably be exploited by players. Could make a pawn more and more transparent if speed boosted a lot so players can kind of see he isn't really that quick.

holy shit fuck you thank fuck for that masterwork sniper rifle I got from a quest one bitch even equipped my flamebow and started setting fires everywhere

why cant you build the shit into the monolith and take it with you? this game has a real problem of the dlc just not interacting at all i cant plant the guranlen tree in the ship either

Better DLC integration usually comes with the first patch

>>715356227
Yeah expansions could definitely stand to interact with each other more, I don't think Oddesy even adds any ideology stuff which is rather weird
as a less obvious example
>>715353712
Stuff along those lines could be cool, they could even have mechanics for children conceived around anomalies coming out all fucked up

>>715284693
Go slow, control your growth (most important), don't accept weird quests and you will be fine. It's better to have a small colony of capable people than a big colony full of randoms.

>>715356457
>I don't think Oddesy even adds any ideology stuff
They added the Shipborn meme.

How are people so good at this game? I always make it through the first year but then I start getting 20 vs 4 guy raids or just complete bullshit events one after another.

>>715345821
Holy based

>>715311030
>that specifically breaks the free mods it is supplanting
Those mods are universally worse than the DLC replacement so literally why does it matter? Not to mention this time Tynan gave modders better tools for optimization and a whole-ass month pre-DLC release to update shit.

some subhuman nigger is raiding the /vg/ thread

>>715356785
>A single meme that is basically just a mood buff/debuff
Wow, very deep integration! This is definitely worth spending hundreds of dollars on buying all the DLC!

by uhhh playing the game?

I love the new music, especially Sky Farmer
Also, 13 is an adult

>>715357014
avoid skyrocketing your colony wealth without the weapons and armor to justify defending it. try to have animal tamers tame a bunch of animals you can release on invaders as extra bodies/bullet shields. capture, heal, and recruit as many invaders as possible instead of waiting for non-hostile joining events to happen

>>715357316
Keep crying incel

So, how does Anomaly and Odyssey work together, does the Monolith teleport to the new place after you fly away or what?

You can't lose research that is already done and you literally can't lose the game unless you click "back to main menu" after your last pawn dies. You can always generate more wanderers moving in to your colony's ruins and rebuild. The research you unlocked is still there, it didn't go away because all pawns died.

>>715357796

Wait what I'm playing newest Rimworld on Windows 10 right now just fine, what are you on?

>>715358228
kek what the fuck is going on there

>>715284693
there's nothing to get good at rimworld. as a colony simulator it is almost inconsequentially easy what you do. you can live in mud huts for 200 years and it doesn't matter because your wealth and the resulting raid points are too low to ever pose an issue to you. the whole game needs to have the wealth/raid system reworked because it feels boring as fuck. why isn't there a mod yet that makes it realistic? if you have a secret bunker that's way too well guarded they shouldn't send 500% of their population to the death and genocide themselves

>>715341717
This is why I used the the Out of Combat Move Speed Boost mod in 1.5.

>>715321128
Rivers do a pretty good job of slowing down enemies or funneling them down bridges. You can basically have kill corridors without building corridors.

Ah I just assumed there were no new memes because there were no new prebuilt ideologies, I should have actually checked the memes and precepts properly

>>715318521
I do think my only major complaint with Rim is just that so many things that felt exotic or powerful in the base game are just comically bad now. No reason to use dryads. No reason to use biosculpters. No reason to ever use luciferium. Chronophagy alone breaks the game open so hard

>>715357401
I recognize rabbie race but what's the other? Ram horns with lizard tail wtf.

>>715359051
How do u not know of Dragonian?
the unga bunga wild dragon race
it;s so old

>>715358938
>No reason to ever use luciferium
Eh the game throws so much luciferium to you having a few pawns use it is a huge benefit

>No reason to use dryads.
This is a problem that only got worse with biotech. They need a massive buff specially the combat dyrads.

What's this for? I got it from a quest and it has a market value of a whopping 2500. A combat supplier wants to buy this from me but my gut is telling me not to sell it.

>>715359284
you can build the royalty shuttle with it and use it for traveling around
there's a research for it

>>715359284
It's useless and you should sell it
retard, what do you think?

>>715321128
Waterwheels basically. Personally I use rimatomics anyway, even the smallest reactor is enough to power my largest bases.

>The trading autism
What's wrong with it?
>managing everyone's walking speed being extremely important
Pathing is multithreaded now so not as big of a problem.
>how it's about handling 3-5 people's mood swings
Just invest in recreational drugs and make a real fucking nice rec room. That usually nets me a full colony of people with Mood 100.
>with the same research tree
I rec Semi Random Research for that one, though there's other mods that make research more interesting by letting you reverse-engineer tech from shit you buy/loot.
>with 50% of your gameplay being sitting and waiting
Unironically play on higher difficulties. That way you won't have time to just wait on research, you'll need to continuously optimize whatever you have on hand to survive and research will just fly by in the background.

>>715354508
>with games like Rimworld.

I'm very offended by your post.

>>715342056
Don't think there is an efficient way to make money off of that. Better to keep spamming beds, because high quality ones reduce the amount of sleep required. Could try airdropping the rest on some random settlement.

>You can always generate more wanderers moving in to your colony's ruins and rebuild.
How? Do you just keep the game running and wait for new people to wander in?

the ship scenario is pretty fucking hard on blood and dust. anyone else playing on this difficulty? i can usually strive but blood is giving me a hard time

>>715360246
Sort of. You can grow plants and raise animals and have a pseudo-production line to turn their products into packaged survival meals (which every trader will accept) and other finished products. The profits can be used to buy and build other things.

>>715360246
the only thing is the vanilla expanded mod for mechs which currently isn't updated and is being reworked. Outside that nope. Though it has it unique autism that you might enjoy.

>>715360246
It's basically the only reason I play it. I love using slave labor for automation and then splicing their genes and shit to turn them all into really good workers. One time I gene edited my slave laborers into being super obedient workers, who are super frail, but could clone themselves and would turn into cooked food on death. So my upper class just lived perpetually in a fort, let the slaves starve because they reproduce faster than starvation, then collected their meat to eat them. I could've entombed the whole colony and they would've been able to indefinitely sustain themselves.

>>715360606
>How? Do you just keep the game running and wait for new people to wander in?
One of the recent patches added a trio of pawns showing up for creation when everyone else dies, if I remember correctly.

>>715283903 (OP)
Tundra with anything from -28 to + 10/15 degrees celsius, because so I don't need to manage giant freezer for my piles of corpses while making cannibal tribe with musket weapons

>>715361557
Why can't we just dry meat in the base game?
Human jerky sounds tasty.

>Save someone from a transport pod crash because i'm a nice guy
>Joins my colony with their shitty stats and they cant do things like "Dumb labour"

How do I fix this

>>715358664
This. It needs some sort of world simulation. I don't expect it to be any where near dwarf fortress. Having a lone colony on an isolated island should stop raids, and any land based events. Or eradicating all colonys within 100 km stops raiding parties. Insects and mechanoids will still be a threat.

I just get annoyed thinking about it. Rimworld could be one of the GOATs but tyana has some ridiculously unfun design principles.

>>715362003
Banishment, or use them to draw fire during a raid

>>715362003
Banish and then kill.

How's the new DLC then? Anomaly tier or biotech tier?

>>715358938
Dyads were always bad

>>715362056
>>715362073
Is the colonist mood debuff negligible for your non-banished guys?

>>715362145
-3 or -6, easy.

>>715362227
Ah that's nothing.

>>715362074
Biotech, if you can't make it to late game dont bother.

>>715362003
Give him a melee weapon and send him to the front.
Either he dies or he becomes a valuable member of the colony as a great warrior

>>715362042
The issue is that it is too formulaic. Every 7 days you have a raid with a predictable outcome. If I have 8 turrets, maybe it's not a good idea for the faction to even consider sending 4 people that barely have pistols, which would be 25% of their entire tribe. For the cavemen tribes at least I can believe that they're too stupid to know what turrets are, but any semi intelligent faction should not attempt it and should instead use diplomaty to worship you or use diplomaty to convince other tribes to attack together. Also the whole thing that they just know what sort of loot have is stupid. If they haven't scouted any wealth from inside the bases it should not exist to them or they should make an educated guess depending on the size and material of the base. The game is fun and I like raids, but it feels like handouts for the player. Oh you're running low on gear and don't want to scavenge? Here lets send you a wave of shitty enemies that are basically lootboxes.

>>715321128
You can fish now

>>715341717
This is my favorite mod for that.
Makes it so that you have to plan how you're going to logistically make your pawns move faster around the map, and costs power+materials.

Not updated for 1.6 yet. Though it might still work but I haven't tried..

>>715362003
With mods? Get him to an outpost. Either that, or put him in a warcasket. Or put him in a quarry.
Vanilla way? Depends on the colony. My favorite is keeping him and putting him in the frontlines to prove his worth. If he dies, tough luck. If he survives multiple times, then you've got the start of an underdog story.

Total squirrel death.
>Still 100+ to go

>>715336117
Exactly. To /rwg/, looking at a colony that's not full of anime girls with animal ears/tails is basically like looking at a completely different game.

>>715363294
why are there so many squirrels in your map?

Be honest. Does Odyssey cost AT LEAST $1? Not in a "I want to support devs" or "I like the game and want more" way. Does it have content good enough for $1?

>>715363424
The map is a squirrel habitat landmark, and I have a mod that allows wild animals to breed.

>>715363294
that's nuts

>>715363443
Considering that a bag of chips costs more than 1$, yes.

>>715363443
yes. you can now play a nomad colony which you really couldn't before. Also the end game is hard/fun.

>>715363443
Odyssey is legitimately one of the best DLCs for the game, second only to Biotech

It's crazy that rimworld is looking like it's about to hit an all time peak of 100k players because of this release and update. Talk about a powerhouse combo. I don't know if they'll ever match the combo of multi thread patch 1.6 and a build your ship dlc

Jesus fucking christ why is anyone who interacts with Oskar and his reddit crew so fucking retarded? Sucks that Im missing out on actual competently made car mods without it but I hope as fuck someone who isnt such a faggot makes a better replacement.

>>715283903 (OP)
When are they finally going to make an official Multiplayer patch/mod?

>>715363702
I bought Odyssey not because I like what it adds, but because I think it is going to give Biotech a run for its money on mod integration and that will make it more than worth

>>715363765
If they ever manage that, it will be the tipping point that makes Rimworld finally leak into the normie mainstream imo. They already have a multiplayer mod.

Why the fuck is there no base Biotech way to adjust the spawn rate of custom xenotypes?
Is it really that hard to just include a slider?
Kinda ruins a campaign if its built around this one unique xenotype when 15 others spawn the moment you start getting quests
>but mods
Yes, it should be baseline thougheverbeit

>>715363713
what do you expect from a longtime modder who gets people to fund the mod? The only credit I will give him is his art is great.

just waiting for my favorite mod yo update then i can play. yep anyday now they will update to 1.5

SoS2 is a broken gimmick but it really feels halfassed for 20 bucks. Thank god I pirated it

>Cooler glitch abuser
Yuck!

Overrun by guinea pigs again. You really do need two passionate researchers belining it to turrets to survive strive to survive tribal start huh? (tree are sacred so we can't make traps, stone traps take too long to make and I'm not wasting steel). How much silver are silver traps anyway?

>>715364756
Yes.
There's an updated fork of HugsLib out there right now. It's implementation is mediocre and there's a few bugs however.

just had this cool glitch that forced me to force quit

>>715365286
Silver is 10x normal cost, no?
So 450 a trap

>>715284693
Literally it's just making your colony arbitrarily poor. The game scales against your wealth, so making your colony a bunch of retards living in a ruin is more effective than building a colony with a proper moneymaking scheme in place.

>>715315636
Still playing my 1.2 base and I still haven't finished building it in its entirety

>>715367020
the only way i can play with mods is because Tylenol's vanilla experience is boring to me without pawn sex, rape, and stds

>>715318206
Rimworld definitely needs a bit of that factorio circuit control in it, have one stockpile set to be loaded first and then when it gets to a certain point have everything in it moved over in one big operation

>>715366505
Just pirate the DLCs. Rimworld's a great game but the sales for these DLCs are absurd after all this time.

>>715366505
All of the DLC's feel like beefed up mods, that being said once the modding starts making use of the DLC mechanics then it becomes really good. Biotech and Ideology are almost necessary for this reason, on top of just generally being solid DLCs. I personally really like Anomaly, but its mechanics are highly disconnected from the base game and as a result it's the easiest to skip. Everyone can tell you how dogshit Royalty is. Haven't checked out Odyssey yet but it looks cool

>>715365710
b-but my 1080ti....

>>715367345
Damn those atriums with the greenery are sexy as fuck. Normally I don't like bases that are all one big building, but it looks nice.

Brehs I don't know what to do, whether to just unsub from all of it and go vanilla for a while, or slowly check what mods I have and remove whatever I don't want any more/is now defunct with the QOL changes, or what...
I think I want to go with a riverside colony or a beach one now that there's heavy bridges to build on. Maybe find a mix of desert and jungle or something since that's a thing apparently.
I fucking love this game.

>>715283903 (OP)
This shit looks gay. What's the fucking point of this faggot game? I can't believe people have 10,000+ hours of play time.

The moment I stopped giving a shit about making my colonist be moral and drug free the game became fun again.
Currently managing a colony of 6 nearly feral women who enslave any male they come across and half of them are chem'd out of their fucking minds half the time.
