This silence…

I hope it's the former, but I'm worried they might be leaning more into the latter. In my opinion there's not a substantial amount here to warrant a new update, especially with the implementation of the brightshades, the new items and planar damage/defense. This update definitely needs some more time in the oven before it goes to the main branch.

I do hope they are waiting to get as much feedback as possible with this update since there are stuffs like planar and brightshade that can seriously hurt the game if not done correctly.

Btw, they haven't done anything with the new shovel, right? Really, the only use I can think of it is to wack a particular doll maker with.

Yes please! I'm not sure why people want major changes a couple days after release. It takes time to test things and balance properly. Plus theres the whole human nature of being averse to change at first. Klei have had a bad habit in the past of jumping on the popular notion of the forums and completely going against what they had initially developed. Not only is this a waste of development time it alters any plans they may have for content that we do not know about yet.

I just wish we'd let the developers do what the developers are paid to do and develop their own game. If in another 2 or 3 updates stuff still isnt working then it might be time to address stuff but its ridiculous to me to change stuff so early on and constantly force the developers to go back to the drawing board with each new set of changes.

I still dont understand why Klei added pure damage mechanic. 

Like seriously, they want to make future bosses have some insane defense that only new sword can pierce trough? I mean, literally every mod except new plants dont have defense at all, I see no point to craft fancy & expensive dark sword mk 3.0

The update is very good, I liked it, the only thing is the numbers, increase those numbers klei! Increase the damage a bit, also the durabilty, and people will be satisified, this is a content post cc (hours and hours of gameplay, maybe days of gameplay irl if you dont rush things and just plays casually with your friends).

This is the only thing that I have to say about it, make people covit for those new items.

I imagine we're going to get plenty of new weapons like the sword to fight new content and likely more sources for the drops.

I truly hope they are planning on doing away with the damage reduction mechanic for the new enemies. It is just a straight-up bad idea.

Maybe it wouldn't be as bad if we had more enemies to use them on or the characters made it clear it could pierce armor but with how it's implemented now, it doesn't seem to fit well into the game at all and I don't want to wait a few extra months until all that's implemented. I feel like they're too little here to warrant all this stuff.

I thought they would release a hotfix yesterday. Now I'm even more concerned. :spidercowers:

I think the beta only needs number tweaks. I'm on board with the concept. It's just that Brightshades are way too spongy and obtaining the new gear is a grind.

Don't be too disturbed if they release as is though. From what I gather, klei feels the forum is a very small sample size given past comments from them. They may release it to gain an even larger sample size and tweak things later. 

I could understand if this was a content for beginner players. This forum often doesn't take them into consideration. But it's post-CC super late game content for advanced players. This forum is the best place to get feedback on that.

I can't speak on their behalf but they obviously don't take out feedback as the absolute last say. We have people with thousands of hours worth of playtime here and they still don't make certain changes until the updates are out in the wild. 

Are we going to really pretend that only people on this forum reach end game? As I said before we're a very small sample size, this is words directly from them. There's no way for us to know where else they get feedback from but if they deem us a small minority the obviously they get a lot of feedback from other places too. One place that comes to mind is discord. The devs are members of a lot of discords and those provide tons of feedback.

Note, I'm not saying our feedback isn't valuable or that its not being noticed. There could be an update just a couple of hours from now. Simply, sometimes they may deem thing in need of testing out in the wild where many more people can get their hands on it.
