Warplord Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 I was the ONLY person (at least from all I read) who is incredibly disappointed to receive another event with basically wasted content instead of a real content drop like "a new reign".... why I really wish those events were added as parts of the DST game.

Stormish Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 I don't know why but I was thinking that world we'll get into in the Gorge could've been biomes for survival mode, I just think they look cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warplord Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 The forge too ... could have been an additional island next to the ruins like the atrium with some new enemies scattered around after you discover/unlock it? New bosses and stuff .... but no - instead it is gone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s understandable since we all love the game, but at a certain point, more is too much, and balance becomes a problem. Does DST really NEED more content in the base game? Probably not, even if we could argue for days about things that need to be fixed or adjusted. So the devs have indicated that they are working out new ways to give us “more” without gunking up the base game with a bunch of stuff just piled on there because the fan base wants something new. They’ve said that the Forge was an experiment with adding on temporary modules that work like a mini-adventure mode and provide new challenges without permanently altering the base game.

Ressayez Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 You know, a safe in DST could work like it does in Terraria where the content of a safe is exclusive to the player, and can only be accessed by the player who placed the items. The contents would not be shared like a chest, and even if the safe is hammered, the items will still remain in limbo until another safe is place. It's tough to explain this, better just to see it in action, or read up on the wiki: https://terraria.gamepedia.com/Safe Point being, I think Terraria's safes are just brilliant.

DuelQ Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 On 10.06.2018 at 1:41 PM, TheKingofSquirrels said: I'm not against these limited events, but I think it's such a shame that the items we see in them get abandoned and turned into worthless skins. Why not add them to DST? The Forge weapons could have been re-balanced for example (there was a mod that tried doing this, but failed miserably). The one I'm fixated on today though, is this HOW AMAZING WOULD IT BE TO HAVE A SAFE IN DST? When you craft it, you give it a combination or a number code. You can tell other players the code, so only the people you trust can open it. That way, you can store precious items and not have to worry about people stealing them. This is a really annoying issue playing on servers with people you don't know, I always have to waste inventory space carrying gears and gems, because I'm worried that if I leave them in a chest, they are just gonna disappear. Also, you could move it like a suspicious marble and maybe with enough gunpowder, you can blow it open. You could get up to all sorts of heist shenanigans. But no...It's going to be turned into an Ice Box skin...Because apparently people want a refrigerator that looks like a safe. Seriously, am I the only person who thinks this is such a missed opportunity!?! In dst, you either play a team or you die so something like that does not make sense. It would be more useful to an armored cupboard - something like a chest but with greater durability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I see the ice box skin as an icebox more then a safe. The handle looks like one to a fridge, and the dial could be to change the temperature.

I will never understand this logic.Games of this genre are always open for new expansion. Games like Subnautica, Minecraft, Terraria are always getting new updates. In fact, they DIE IF THEY DON'T. I don't understand why this game can't as well. Seriously, with this kind of logic, we would never have gotten RoG or a New Reign.

Sorry, just frustrating. But this isn't an opinion, it's what it is. It's a safe. Obviously, the shape of it so that it can fit as a skin for an Ice Box. But it's a safe. It's an Ice Box that looks like a safe. That's it. You can pretend that it's not, but the reality of it is...It's a safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MondayNight Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Why does whimsical humor fly over people' heads most of the time? Yes, it's a safe - is a "safe fridge" *BUMPTZ!* Spoiler PS - if one is after realism, here are some irl references: • Victorian Refrigerators (a.k.a. Icebox) • VictorianPassage - Cabinet Refrigerator Spoiler A very VERY big ol' trunk refrigerator: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it is worth arguing about the look of the different items tho, because (if I'm not mistaken) your original question was why did we get a skin instead of a new building. Regarding that, it would be nice to have saves in the game but in my opinion they wouldn't be important in most cases but a new skin would be used more often (and it's also easier to implement).

I just don't understand, especially with the real life pictures I provided, it can look anything other than a safe. As for the other stuff you. That's what I hate the most. I don't care about skins.

Comparing the in-game safe to the in-game icebox doesn't improve your point on it being a safe. They have different looks to them. The safe has little detail, with a LOCK on it, while the ice box has a dial and looks mechanical. As for the image of the IRL safe... it also looks different. Sure, it looks very similar to the ice box again, but it also resembles the safe more. The reason I say it looks like the ice box is because of the door. You cant tell me this: Doesn't resemble this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
