SamLogan Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Over the Neutronium Upgrade Have you ever dream to go through the Neutronium and try to reach the asteroid surface? I really think it will be possible with the next patch (dig abyssalite not to reach the surface). Here's some theories/proofs : --Theoretical Patch Notes-- New Digging Tools New job specialization : Tenured Miner (Tier 6) - Trait : Neutronium Mining. New multitool for specialized Miner (Tier 6). This tool need to be crafted with a Multitool Workbench. New action : Desintegrate New receipts New Station : Multitool Workbench Laser Burner : allow to carve the neutronium fragments. "Boring Machine" : a machine that occupies people with tasks that are only aimed at recreational. New Biomes Icy Crushed : a cold biome made of crushed ice and crushed rock. Electric Rock : a magnetic biome made of Electrum and Pyrite rock. May contain some Radium, a rock that emitting radioactive substance. New disease Irratied : if a Duplicant desintegrate some Neutronium or be exposed to a radioactive substance, he can be become irratied that kill him in few cycles. --Some potentials proofs-- Dig the neutronium is possible with the Debug Mode and produce some materials : The game files already integrate that : "Multitool Workbench : uses raw or refined metal to make a multi-tool. Multi-tools can be used to mine very strong and indestructible materials without this tool." So Klei have planned to allow Duplicants to dig the neutronium. Other proof, take a look at this non-implanted object in the Sandbox mode : "Quarrying Gun" -> New digging gun for Neutronium. The laser burner have a concept art in the game file : About the boring machine, we have that string since the last patch : About the potential new biomes : "Sustainable for Power systems" Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/90934-next-patch-over-the-neutronium/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
goboking Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 I suspect the next patch is going to be relatively small so they can clean up some of the leftover problems created by the two Ranching Upgrades, do some optimization, and tackle a few bugs. Hopefully you're right, though, I'm ready for a game-changer of an upgrade.

Soulwind Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Is there going to be mining of Neutronium eventually? Probably. Is it going to be next update? Highly unlikely. Not only would they need to give us the ability to mine the Neutronium, they also have to add in something to do with the material. Right now, nothing can be built of it; it can't be refined; it can't be melted; and you certainly don't want to pierce the outer edges of the map until that is added to the game. Right now, the only use for mining it would be to open up the magma pockets for use. There's also a lot of balancing that would need to be done just in regards to the properties of Neutronium. Thermal conductivity and melting point being big ones.

brummbar7 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Not so sure on this. How would they address the edges of the map? Make up a new un-minable material? Seems unnecessary. Seems more likely to me the tools will be required to mine things we already have (especially abyssalite and diamond), plus perhaps some of those non-implemented non-neutronium materials, and maybe ruins as well.

Xyer Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 With regards to the "Boring Machine", note that this machine may also be used for digging said indestructible material as the word "bore" also means to "make (a hole) in something with a tool or by digging".

Lutzkhie Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 i wonder if they will add a DLC expansion where we will be playing the dupes who came before, what their trying to experiment inside the asteroid, and where it went wrong which then leads to the new dupes from the printer pod Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/90934-next-patch-over-the-neutronium/#findComment-1036474 Share on other sites More sharing options...
