DNsingbanana Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Really happy we get to finally touch this beauty ! My thoughts on two things however : -It's actually the first time we see a bit of the game played in normal speed! It looks so weird ! The cycling speed of the manual generators and the oscillations of the digging tool look really really slow. Too slow. For the manual generator it doesn't feel like the dupes are putting any energy in it, and for the digging tool it doesn't look like.. digging. For me increasing the animation speeds of these rwo things in normal speed would put a bit more juice visually. -I like the red alert concept, however having it being global looks really constraining. Couldn't we have a way to have it take place only on certain places, like having an alert building that will only wake up duplicants in a certain range ? That way we can make intervention teams for problems during the night while other duplicants can rest, and also if we ever make two separate bases you don't have duplicants at the other end of the map waking up ?

PudgeBalloon Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 It did feel weird it being on normal speed after seeing it sped up every time, however, I assumed they were performing so slowly because they're currently untrained and would speed up as they get better at that skill, will be interesting to see. I like the idea of alert towers with the possibility of setting certain dupes to react to certain towers/alarms. Depends how often you're likely to need to hit the big red button I guess. Really looking forward to getting my hands on it in 5 days!!

sp33dlink Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 My feedback: Shouldn't the coal generator consume oxygen and create co2?

Could be cool to deal with the venting for the generators and keeping the co2 away from the dupes I think this already happens, they put the coal generators at a room with That air locker just to "jail" the co2... It's just a thought, maybe they did that because the coal generator creates so much heat, and this may cause the dupes to freak out. My suggestion is to put a radioactivety system, with some cool radioactive elements like uranium and plutonion and the dupes uses that in a nuclear reactor!

Could be cool to deal with the venting for the generators and keeping the co2 away from the dupes I was hoping someone asked this question.... I felt the coal generators should consume oxygen and since the room didn't have an oxygen vent, it should stall out once all the o2 in the room was consumed.

DNsingbanana Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Well pressure exists, as we've seen algae deoxydizers stop functionning when the pressure is too high, so i guess for coal generators if they kept this system for more time it would've stopped because of the pressure.

Michi01 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I'm not 100% sure they said this but I think they said that water can be split into oxygen and hydrogen and that that hydrogen can then be turned into energy. Pretty sure hydrogen is burned to produce energy though which means using it to produce energy after getting it from water wouldn't produce any energy (I could be wrong though).

If you build a machine called eletrolyzer, you can absolutely do this! They said that on the first or second stream!

DNsingbanana Posted February 12, 2017 Author Share Posted February 12, 2017 Magical portals used for teaching purposes ? X) From what i've seen thought, they sseem to have gone the route of "nothing's created, nothing disappears, everything transforms" as there don't seem to be materials that are lost. The only thing they might have forgotten is that duplicants should emit heat as they consume calories, but i would like to see if you basically consume as much water for food as the duplicants then eject or things like that Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/73947-wanted-some-feedback-heres-some/#findComment-865892 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electrolysis actually consumes energy, but if you mean the energy produced by burning the resulting hydrogen, then yes, it will be less (it always be less...) thanks to entropy, which I hope the devs don't include.
