It is said that to Rim is to live forever.

How does one rim?

>>715741169
>Install RimWorld

Fuck components and fuck getting them before fabrication. Why does Tynan have such a hardon for this bottleneck?

How do you manage the amount of stuff you load into the gravship when it's on your colony? setting up stockpiles and increasing their priority so it's higher than the ones in the colony?

I don't like my ship's design. How do I cope with all the wasted gravlite panels?

>>715741169
Profits from mods turned dlc. Hence the shilling

fuck niggers

The new scenario is hard.

>>715741169
You put your tongue in someone's butthole. It can even be your own, if you can reach.

I had a few more "raids" they don't do anything since they are deactivated, kinda funny. Wonder how much of the mechinator stuff works with this?

the yayo combat tranny needs to hurry the fuck up

I don't want to escape this rim world, I want to become supreme ruler of it. Can I?

>>715745891
lil' cock landed on my base

Been a few years.

What expansions are worth it?
Have royalty, everything else seems really expensive for not much added.
Also current mod meta for best QoL?

>>715741169
Niggers tongue my anus

>>715746812
Biotech >/= Odyssey > Royalty > Ideology >>>>> Anomaly
For QoL, whatever you find annoying, there is probably a mod to fix it.

This is the closest we have to Alpha Centauri II

>>715746365

>>715747483

why do I see that one being so hated? only one I have is odyssey, but the lovecraft shit looks cool.

>he doesn't trade
tf anon, pack up a muffalo with 2500 wool or some shit and go get some.

>>715747646
from what i understand the minor increases to specific interest is often greatly outweighed by the huge annoyances or outright game breaking situations anomaly creates.
haven't played it, that's just what EVERYONE says.
It's not bad, but it's too specific for it to be "good" also most the time.

>>715747483
Right got it.
Problem is i'm not even sure what mods are even worthwhile anymore.
I mean we are talking YEARS.

>>715747646
Anomaly is fun but it's also very specific, so you're probably only going to play through it once. Whereas other ones are more gamechanging in the long term.

>>715747646
Anomaly just adds some quirky events and raids. It can be a nice surprise on Ambient Horror mode, but its content isn't exactly to die for. The new DLC adds a new meme for Ideology and a new xenotype for Biotech, nothing at all for Anomaly, which shows how much Tynan cares about Anomaly in the long run.

>Yayo's Combat still not updated
pain....

>>715744787
just pull up the panels?
all you lose is the steel

let's say I tame a male and a female Gorillas. Could I get them to fuck to end up producing an army of gorillas?
>>715748385
>all you lose is the steel
oh really? nice, thought I'd lose like a half of the gravlite panels. Good to know, thanks.

>>715747646
Anomaly warps your entire playthrough around it.
It's cool when you dedicate a playthrough to Anomaly, but every other time it just becomes an annoyance.
On a personal note I also find the concept of it to be a little too fantastical compared to the base game as well.

is combat CE really that much better than vanilla?

>>715749221
no, it's an awful bloat mod

>>715749221
It's hard to go back to vanilla combat after CE. You never quite notice just how weak and shitty feeling guns are in vanilla combat until after playing CE.

>>715746063
If you chose to destroy the Mechhive Cerebrex Core, all (vanilla) hostile mechanoids from then on turn up deactivated, whether they come from events or even stuff like ancient dangers. Colony Mechanoids that go feral because their controlling Mechinator dying also becomes deactivated. For that colony run, you pretty much permanently disable Mechanoid raid and cluster drops, and it also disables the ability of your Mechinators to summon Mechanoid commanders (bosses). All of your colony Mechanoids still function and you can still gestate more though, because they're linked with your colony (and your Mechinator), not the Mechanoid Hive.

As for modded Mechanoids, who knows. For the ones that come with HAR races (like Miho and Milira), they're probably immune to that because they're not Mechhive Mechanoids, but faction owned, so to speak. Though Alpha Mech ones should stop, unless the dev wants to pull some 'acktually Alpha mechs are capable of independent movement' kind of thing (I haven't checked to see if their mechs also get deactivated).

Spoiler for if you didn't destroy the Mechhive Cerebrex Core and took it instead:
You get a Utility Slot equipment that when equipped to a Mechinator gives them +15 Mech Bandwidth and +12 Mech Workspeed Offset. When the pawn equipped with the Cerebrex Core is drafted, they gain three abilities: the ability to summon 2-3 Mechanoid Drop Pods for your own use (free Drop Pods, pretty much), the ability to summon a hostile Mechanoid Raid at the target location, and the ability to deactivate a Mechanoid within 30 tiles (I think it only deactivates one at a time). All of these abilities have a cooldown of like 1-2 minutes or something like that.

Having a set up colony that pretty much takes care of it on it's own while you cruise the world on your gravship is super fun

>>715749386
>colonist gets and infection from a rat biting their toe because they couldn't shoot it with their revolver
i don't know about you but i feel it

>>715749557
damn that's a shit reward

>>715749823
Depends on how you see it, I guess. Some people like to farm Mechanoids for materials and don't find them annoying to deal with, or extensively use Mechanoids in their colony so being unable to summon Mechanoid bosses means you can no longer get the unique drops from them.

On the other hand, if the third ability affects anything, you could summon Mechanoid bosses like say Apocriton and use the Cerebrex Core to deactivate the boss, thereby cheesing it. Otherwise because you can choose where to drop the Mechanoid Raid when you summon it, you could easily prepare a 'Mechanoid farming spot' where you have the pawn with the Cerebrex Core constantly summon down Mechanoids to farm them for their materials much more easier.

>>715750332
I would get bored of a playthrough long before reaching that point

>>715749652
It's real. No matter how good a shot you think you are try shooting down a bird if you want to be humbled. I would imagine hitting a moving rat is just as difficult.

>>715751069
>colonist with 20 shooting using a charge rifle and a set of marine armor gets killed when a rat bites through the armor
>colonist with 20 melee and jacked up on a dozen combat drugs gets his arm destroyed in a social fight by a 3 melee researcher who has never touched a drug in his life
there's a difference between a pawn "being humbled" and a system just straight up not working correctly

>>715751447
Never had any problems with marine+ armor not doing its job.
Limbs getting destroyed in social fights is bullshit and it's probably a feature not a bug.

>>715749557
Ya I save scummed the ending just to see the different text and what you get. I do wish they did more with the insects this time around, the hive queen is just another side objective, mechs vs insects seems like a theme they could have done more with.

just stormed an orbital station hunting down some mercenary and it's gang while acking doors and turrets, kino stuff.

>>715751447
never experienced anything remotely close to any of this. everybody's seen a guy fall to some tribal shooting an arrow right into their brain, but rat bites through a 20 melee fighter's armor? maybe if literally the entire map is filled with them and the battle goes on until the guy passes out and then they nibble him to death

>>715752294
I did one of those early in my first run and the guy walked out in full marine armor with a legendary shotgun and blasted two of my guys into pieces
was cinema

>>715752607
I don't know how you can play with more than 8 pawns

>>715748567
>On a personal note I also find the concept of it to be a little too fantastical compared to the base game as well.
I disagree. They should've gone full-myustical/magical/mumbo-jumbo with it. Giving it a sci-fi technological explanation made it lame.

>>715747642
I keep a couple uninstalled in my stockpile
Throw them down sometimes as a distraction
Also keep some turret packs alongside my hunter drones (I love hunter drones so much)

>>715752646
How could I manage with less?

>>715747642
that base literally has turrets and mortars

>spend the last two quadrums asteroid mining, hulk scavenging, fishing on the north pole, hunting moose on the tundra, mining gold in a quarry, and probably more shit i'm forgetting
>pawns are somehow bitching that i'm not moving around enough for Nomadic: Desired
the engines barely have time to cool down, what the hell do they want from me?

>>715752646
I have 10 pawns and 6 slaves. shit runs like clockwork

>>715752801
no pawn matters past 8 because you have redundancies for everything
literally nothing interesting can happen

>>715752859
I don't think they want to be on a space ship at all. I think they want to live in tents in the wilderness.

>>715752646
I can play with dozens of pawns but they are all females under 25, and only one male, who is my self-insert

>>715752939
i've had it go away occasionally, which just makes things weirder

>>715752924
>no pawn matters past 8
it's more guns shooting at the same time

>>715752993
fuck off leo

Would Rimworld work as a movie?

>>715753349
you could write a movie inside the setting, sure, but it'd basically have to stand on its own

you couldn't turn a colony history into a decent movie without going full hollywood on what actually happened

>>715753471
A self-contained movie about a colony from crash landing on a rimworld to their escape on a salvaged and repaired spaceship like ten years later would be kino

just found a 21 year old cutie inside a cryo stasis box

>>715753349
the actual setting of "so far in the future that literally anything could happen or have already happened and entire histories have come and gone in weird ways, and humanity is at all stages of civilization simultaneously" is pretty rare now that I think of it, I can't think of one that's exactly the same

How's the new expansion?

>>715757114

What mod should I use if I want my pawns to be cute anime girls?

Do you guys think that regular walls should also have the diagonal connections that the ship walls have?

>>715769837
Gotta set a goal for yourself anon. Choose one of the endings and go get it.

>>715773092
Time travel

>>715770137
z levels would make this game so much more fun man

>>715773092
the mines

>>715752646
Why can't you play with more than 8 pawns? I usually end up at around 20.

>>715770137
Why do you need multiplayer? How the hell would multiplayer even work in Rimworld? I don't want to wait for someone else to be able to play in my world.

>>715775310
Look up Outpostia.

>>715773092
Most likely vehicles given that is the next most popular mod he can rip off.

>>715773092
Ocean stuff and Z levels, but really they should be tweaking/adding stuff to the other dlcs first

>>715773092
maybe more interactions between factions and your colony. I'm using a hotel and museum mod and it seems worth ripping off, maybe not $20 though

Suppose I don't want to pay $141.90 for DLC, would I be able to slap borrowed dlc into a legit copy of the game?

>>715773092
Rim War seems like a cool mod but I can tell it's definitely buggy. I wouldn't mind Tynan "stealing" it for more DLC.

>>715777213
>would I be able to slap borrowed dlc into a legit copy of the game?
yes

>Boomrat self-tamed
Thanks, Randy

>>715776984
Z-levels are already in the game tho.

Nice quest desu.
How much wealth do you have right now?

>>715779505
Not much

>>715779557
Walls made out of plasteel, huh?

My shitty tribe start is starting to get some scary raids (people with guns) but my main issue is still melee rushers. It's always usually my three ranged pawns vs 7 hobos with knives and clubs running at full speed and I can barely cripple or down them before they reach me. Any defense tips?

>>715739003 (OP)
Are the DLCs worth it as a beginner? I'm planning on playing it a lot and I hate having an incomplete game.

>>715779802
Just pirate them. It's easy.

>>715779802
I would recommend doing the tutorial and playing a vanilla base for a couple years on a nice area until you get familiarized/bored. The DLC really likes being in your face at all times.

>>715779752
Start with fighting in chokepoints.
You can fuck around with AI by using doors, literal cartoon shit.
You can enrage larger animals and hide inside buildings if you have walls up, animals will simply attack the raiders.

>>715780213
My map happens to have lots of elephants, rhinos and hippos for some reason so I'm going to have to start doing this. As for the chokepoint stuff I made some wall-barricade-wall spots and they're quite effective against ranged attackers since it provides cover but they do nothing to stop melee.

>>715779802
>Are the DLCs worth it as a beginner?
yeah. They bring a whole lot and are required by mods

>>715779802
No the DLCs are garbage.
you'll be tranny modding soon after.
Just play the game as intended and move on with your life.

>>715744125
I just live 100% off my ship outside of the farms i throw down or a few shacks if i have guests who needs beds. I do have a mod that adds storage crates though so I do save on a lot of storage space but the crates look a lot nicer in a hull than a bunch of vanilla shelves

>>715747646
It doesn't add much to a core rimworld experience. You're either doing the anomaly route or you aren't and you don't get any anomaly content.

Unlike royalty or biotech which adds a bunch of stuff to the tech tree even if you aren't doing the royalty/biotech route for completion

>>715746812
Odyssey and biotech. I actually really like anomaly with Odyssey since you never know what dark bullshit a map tile might have waiting on it for you, but ive done very little with the anomaly stuff itself. I always turn IDeology on and I always regret it, its cool if you have a specific goal with it in mind though. Royalty adds some cool stuff too but id really recommend Odyssey and Biotech above all.

>>715748310
haven't confirmed it myself but im pretty sure ive seen others say its working just fine with 1.6 i think just the newly added stuff doesnt work right

>>715781042
You simply want to reduce the amount of attacks they can dish out vs your frontline.
All the pawns in the back can still shoot while frontline can bash at the same target.
You can build traps as well but that's gay.

>>715781475
Speaking of ideology: I started off with the basic bitch religion is it actually possible to change stuff around so my colonists don't get bitchy after I harvest some asshole raider's organs?

>>715781728
not in any in game way, but you can enable dev mode in the settings and then edit whatever religion you want to whatever you want.

>>715781706
>your frontline
last time I tried this my "frontline" got their nose bashed in, red circle took their place and nobody could shoot or disengage anymore

>>715781880
That sucks. The game lied to me by saying I could start with a basic ideology and "mold" it as I played and I see there's some reform thingy but is there really no way?

>>715781706
You also want repair guys if you're dealing with high difficulty bullshit spam raids
>>715781912
Use three guys with Tough, Nimble, or preferably both
Their purpose isn't to deal out damage but just hold the line so it doesn't matter if they're good at melee
If you're completely full retard, you can also use incapable of violence pawns if they have those traits as well, not punching back doesn't mean they can't body block

LOVE ECLIPSES
LOVE SOLAR FLARES
LOVE BLIGHT ON ALL MY CROPS RANDOMLY

Hey when we said "losing is fun" we said that because dwarf fortress made losing fun. Rimworld makes losing scripted unless you lose mods or cheese

(currently raging as I play rimworld in the other window)

>>715781956
mmm you might be able too. It's been awhile since ive done much with Ideo but if i remember right you can just add on to the religion I don't think you could change precepts they already had, but maybe im wrong.

>>715781956
You're playing fluid ideology, just do the rituals or perform executions or look at what your ideology gives as reform points, get it to the full amount, reform, add "Supremacist" as a Meme then change every precept to your liking such as Corpses:Don't Care, Cannibalism:Acceptable and Organ Harvesting:Allowed
Supremacist is the one that gives the most amount of shit you're probably looking for

>>715782053
Just fly away bro, leave whatever problems you have behind you to be fixed by your grav thrusters

>>715782053
Oh wait I have more bitching based off of just 5 further mins of gameplay

WITHIN FIVE MINUTES OF LANDING A GRAVSHIP IN THE GRASSLANDS, CUT THE SURROUNDING GRASS. STORY GENERATOR WILL LIGHT IT ON FIRE AND I MEAN IMMEDIATELY. ITS FUN! DONT BUILD OR DO ANYTHING COOL. TYNAN THINKS HE NEEDS TO ADD DIFFICULTY LIKE THE DARK SOULS DEVS ADD HP TO BOSSES. ITS FUN! BUILD FIFTY WOODEN TRAPS IDIOT

If you can't 6v1 then you are indeed in deep shit.

It's in the horrible genre of /k/ tranny mods to games where they nigger about mm of steel and their milsurp branding instead of trying to make a game with mechanics so it just breaks everything
There's a reason people give a middle finger to it on every mod page

>>715752646

>>715782474
stealing 500$ in google play cards from your grandmother as we speak

>>715782565
To be fair, shooting a gun 12 times and hitting 3 times at skill level 10 is pretty fuckin unrealistic

but I just assume tynan is a 40k fan, love melee

>>715782696
Yeah because normal modern combat happens at ranges of hundreds of meters, but that doesn't translate to a game themed off of chess in spaces of 250x250 cells
So clearly the solution is to just skullfuck the programming to make half of the roster of weapons useless and lead to soft locks repeatedly because you love consooming multicam off of ebay

>>715782413
I love using melee with CE, but unless you have good armor your pawns will die horribly. Until you get shield belts you need to think outside the box.
There is huge power gap between normal melee weapons like uranium maces and end game weapons like persona weapons.
With proper setup you can just bonk fools in the head, very satisfying with invisible pawns.

>>715782902
I was saying I loved melee and appreciate how he balanced it, what the fuck is your problem lol

but since we are arguing -

youre right we should dumb down a sim because modern computers simply cannot handle it. Its not rule of cool its actually just the arbitrary game field we picked. I will be lobotomized within 24 hours because I engaged with you in good faith

Should I?

>>715783031
Anyone who niggerbabbles about CE being in any way balanced or sane to use, I have but one phrase for you:
>early mechanoid raid
Even in the vanilla game there is nothing so fucking retarded as that shit where stupid faggot /k/ trannies go "hurr mm of steel is sumfin dat matters, uhh enemy made of steel, uhh effectively infinite DR oops you lose haha uh oh"
You enjoy your lobotomy, mr reddit man, it's the best thing for humanity.
May you never return to the world of the waking.

>>715783201
Show me where I mentioned CE, I had to google it to finally understand why you hate me so much

I think your hostility should be aimed at the retard modder guy and not me

In your defense though, it looks like shit

>>715783063
I don't think you should.

>>715782474
>immediate meltie

>>715783328
I joined the convo here, Im not the same as this guy who was shilling CE. I also do not use that mod because Im sick of seeing forums crawling with guys like him wondering why the game is unbalanced or broken

But yeah truce, I think we hate the same enemy

I like CE because of the armo, bulk, ammo system. Damage on mechanoids feels overtuned but at the same time it's literally killing machines and you can just murder them with disposable rockets.

>>715783607
Mainly I was bitching earlier about how inaccurate guns are. I think making guns even slightly more realistic would make ranged viable

as rimworld currently sits, I love doin armor + melee weapons

>>715783831
if your only problem is accuracy might as well just try yayo combat, I think that revamped accuracy to be less shit

>>715784418
