>RimWorld just got a massive update
>not 1 thread about it
I'm honestly starting to think this is the best colony sim out there not counting autist fortress.
Tynan jut added spherical planets with more faction, bases, caravans, drop pods and shit.
If you'd like to play dorffort but can't stand the ''graphics'', RimWorld is you go-to game.

we had a couple threads when it was released in the beta branch.
it was mostly "lol the enemy bases suck" and nothing else, because that's what modern Sup Forums is, an endless stream of complaining about literally anything that could possibly warrant complaint
i've not tried the a16 yet but i intend to sometime today

Fantastic

>no mood penalties
FUCK YEAH, LET'S GET BACK IN HERE.
You can only kill them without remorse if they have a guilty trait so just double check before harvest their organs.
Why does this game looks so much like Prison Architect, it's like both of them were made from the same assets or maybe by the same artist.
both use a square tiles system and hand drawn mspaint-tier sprites. That's it. No relation otherwise.
Nice multi thread support they added. Oh wait.
From patch notes
>You can settle multiple colonies at once. However, for balance and performance reasons, the default limit is one colony at a time. This can be increased in the options menu if you want to experiment, but we don’t recommend it.
Interesting, performance reasons on this 2d bullshit in 2016.
>batteries
A disaster waiting to happen.
And what are those power thingies in the lower left (and in the red part middle right?
There is also a peaceful mode now. Maximum comfy.
Explain this to a computer illiterate like me.

Game is absolute bullshit, the combat is fucking garbage and the guy who designed it clearly has no idea how guns or ranged combat works.
Fuck it came out today!?
>Interesting, performance reasons on this 2d bullshit in 2016.
When you have a bunch of AIs running around it gets tricky
The game doesn't take advantage of multiple cores. Which on a game like this results in shitty performance and a cap on how large you can build before FPS death.
git gud
Get the Combat Realism mod, you'll be surprised
I mean the game is the closest you can get to Dwarf Fortress without going full Rougelike, and even then DF is a fucking bitch to run on a shitty processor.
The rimworld team asked the prison architect guys if they could use assets or just the art style i dont remember but they are related.
how convenient that you can assuredly tell me i'm wrong despite not remembering
>batteries
I agree, I should have designed it differently. They are running on separate grids though so not all the power blows up in case of short circuit. The generators and solars are obsolete too, the whole facility runs on nuclear.
And the power thingies are new generators added by the industrialization mod, they also run on uranium IIRC
shit game play dwarf fortress instead retard
That's right about the maximum depth of advice anyone can give on this game.
The big nuclear reactor i recognize, the smaller ones not
anyone got a torrent of v.16?
>The rimworld team asked the prison architect guys if they could use assets or just the art style i dont remember but they are related.
They're not related, the Rimworld team just blatantly ripped it off because they're lazy hacks.
Then it was another mod, can't remember for sure.
good thing you weren't born yet in the NES days or you'd have a stroke over the similarities in how games looked
Is he going to be ok?
Exactly, a game made in 2006 has shitty multi core support. I expect that. A game that entered alpha in 2013 I expect their main concern would be to get rid of dwarf fortresses only problem.
The graphics aren't a problem unless you want to sell a knock off of dwarf fortress.
Oh wait they are in it for the money, it's a worse game in every way but has graphics so they can sell it.
Why do you keep defending them? Are you in it for money?

sure, why not

What's your point?
It wasn't ok then, it's not ok now.

why are devs so shit?
i thought dorf players were supposed to be chill af
why do they always shitpost in rimworld threads, there's zero competition between the games
meh, who does? cant remember if i did end up killing her, or just sticking her in this dungeon

Most are, What you're seeing are probably shit posters

Yea, but he isn't charging for his game.

Dwarf Fortress suck
>ITT butthurt children who can't into Dwarf Fortress
Thats elf talk. You some sort of elf?
I'm trolling the fuck out of captain "baawwwww they stealed prison architect looks"
not even being subtle about it and he keeps biting. some of the posts ITT are totally opposite of how i really feel
dwarf fortress is a goddamn masterpiece and toady has ascended above man
>ITT: DF Autists who cannot comprehend that RimWorld is a better accessible game
the only people who need accessibility are disabled
I also play Xenonauts instead of X-COM.
And when 2 hits, I will move away from Apocalypse as well.
>open .dll files in notepad
>looks the same as dwarf fortress ''graphics''
lol
>mortar your power sources, nothing you can do about it
Go shoot them, idiot. It takes them a full day to set up mortars.
Fantastic idea, surely these colonists who can barely hit a target with a shotgun on close-quarters will totally not get mowed down by a team of professional pirates who outnumbers them by 3:1 while being equipped by far superior weaponry. Never mind the fact that they also set their mortars on open group which basically means a Stalingrad-like suicide charge if I want to half the setup of their artillery.
Brilliant strategy.
This base is entirely indefensible on a reasonable difficulty.
Build wooden traps. Send someone to lure them into a killzone. Build some turrets. Endure the shelling, rebuild, and prepare for next time. Stop playing on the random difficulty since there's no reason for you to be armed with peashooters at the point where mortars arrive. Rimworld is not a complicated game, you're just terrible.
RimWorld is not about strategy, it's about tactics.
>not enjoying incest lesbian cannibals.
>rw sux df rulez XD
kys my man.
Lesbian incest is the purest form of love.
I love the game, don't get me wrong OP. It's just the random bullshit "moments" that turn your smoothly running base into a fucking chaotic shitstorm that pisses me off.
>I am someone who does not get satisfaction from liking something, no I must hate what others like instead
Do you do it for pity or do you get off from being abused?
>If you'd like to play dorffort but can't stand the ''graphics'', RimWorld is you go-to game.
or you just play dorf fort with a tileset since it's 100 times better
Obviously I'm not playing on the random, if anything I was on regular Cassandra.
But yeah, "endure the shelling" is a really good piece of advice, I'll just buy a C-RAM and shoot them down as they come, yes?
>traps
Useful but honestly only against tribals, most pirates will completely ignore them.
>lure them into a killzone
Like I said, that's my main strategy, hold a position against cover where I have fire superiority and funnel them into a killzone.
Never makes a difference as they are always unable to hit reliably and the enemies just come in zerg rushing regardless.
>turrets
Literally useless as they deal no damage at all, miss a lot, and only fuck up everything around them once they are inevitably destroyed by some dude with a shotgun.
>rebuild, and prepare for next time
That's a given, but considering all of this happens by the time I have only three colonists and just a bunch of poor/terrible quality guns, a melee enemy that hacks away one their hands in a strike of luck is basically me fucked over forever, especially considering that prisoners not only join wounded as a result of the fight, but also take forever to join, almost two attacks worth of time.
>Rimworld is not a complicated game, you're just terrible.
I think your post should've been just that and the intention would've been the same.
>Only one person who can shoot a gun
>Level 20 fucking master expert operator motherfucker

These Vulcan turrets mow down absolutely anything dumb enough to get close. the only real challenge where mortars and assault drop pods.
The colony met its end when mechanoids landed near the trading console in the middle.
>There will never be an adventure mode for Rimworld.
This is why I won't buy it.
Cheers, f@m.
>There will never be an adventure mode for Rimworld.
as in?
drop pods are so fucking bullshit. I would be ok if it was at the very least outside my fucking base but no, they drop through the fucking roof into my bedroom and assrape me
Well you see, in addition to Dorf Fort's fortress mode, it also has an adventure mode where you can create an individual character and freely wander the entire world, where you can complete quests slay dragons, go drinking, make friends, swear fealty to a king, ect ect.
If you mean travelling around on a planet then that is actually in the game as of todays update.
Boy, you sure are determined not to take any responsibility for this, huh?
Maybe you should go play path of exile or something, just hold the mouse button until everything dies
Well I do appreciate how your advice in the end boils down to "git gud", which like I said before is right about as far as you can go for this game considering its gameplay depth.
Well yeah but you can't really do much besides attack bases right? And the NPCs only focused on your people last I checked, they wouldn't fight (or trade, or scheme) amongst themselves. But if that's changing then color me interested.
>These Vulcan turrets mow down absolutely anything dumb enough to get close

More Vanilla Turrets
There is better rogue-like than Dwarf Fortress Adventure Mode, even if being to explore your failed fortresses is a nice gimmick.
Check out this development update. Next version is gonna be insane.
The gameplay itself doesn't interest me as much as Toady's intent to make the world a living, changing morass of interpersonal relationships instead of just a static dungeon. See
Why combat realism is not default I do not know. I remember seeing a bear taking about 40 bullets before dying before
grinned reading it earlier today. I cannot imagine how fun it will be discovering the random spearman you recruited is actually some sort of spy and you're actively helping an entire civilization learn far more than they should about what's going on in the world
Gracias amigo
I love this game but it's too hard and cruel with the RNG to play without the exploits. I've never gotten a colony of more than six over dozens of games played.
>An aesthetic is pleasing to the eyes and makes everything stand out just as it should for this type of game
>Hey I like that can we use that? We've tried all sorts of things its just not the same
>Sure I don't care
Just because its easier doesn't mean they're lazy, that game is fantastic and they've put a lot of work into it.
Dude you've got like 3 different types of AI directors and several difficulty levels, and it can all be changed at any time during the game.
Mix and match for comfort, then raise the stakes when things get too easy.
The combat is absolutely broken, you either switch to easy modo or use mods to make it playable.
