Holy shit the hunger mechanic is pure cancer. This would be a 10/10 game otherwise.
>>739959990>he didn't find the barrel of 50 free MREs
>>739959990Keeping an eye on this game, any word on when it will be complete?
>>739960235
>>739960280Eh, that's too bad. This game looks legitimately interesting but I just can't do the early access cycle again. Fucking cube world.
>>739960806The game is worth trying but there is no way it will ever get finished. Its had roughly the same core content as it did 2 years ago.
I've seen people say most of the content added is random streamer stuff you need people to tell you where it is, is this true or can I go blind into the game and have "fun"?
>>739961038Would you consider it in a complete state then? I just don't want to jump in to have the game pulled or fundamentally altered, or have them add new mechanics that ruin the core experience.
>>739961260I had the same thoughts prior to a blind playthrough but there is enough shit that is genuinely good content for you to have a great blind experience.
>>739960151Those give you food poisoning now. You're meant to sell them
>>739961365>is it complete?no>is it worth playing?yes, nothing will fundamentally change.The issues anons have with the game is that the core experience has been locked in for years now. With how the game works there is plenty to do and see before you reach day ~40 and then the game just abruptly ends with nothing to do. Fans (read: not discord sycophants) have been waiting for more shit to do in those last few days but the dev has been dragging his feet for years now with adding end game shit. Instead all the dev time goes to adding meme garbage for streamers and his discord instead of shit normal player will encounter and enjoy.
>>739959990Why the hell does the Abiotic Factor dlc version of the map run so much better?
I want to like this, but the actual experience of playing the game and not treating it like a sandbox sucks.Even with the bandaid of getting an omega Kerfus who does the obnoxious shit of running all across the big empty map every day to write down hash codes.>Can't remember what update but they added an update where you have to now do food rotation
>>739961887it's smaller, it doesn't use the fucked lighting system VotV has, and it isn't covered in interactable physics trash.Mostly the lighting is to blame.
>>739959990>buy shrimp>cook shrimp>eat whenever your health is down to 35 or so to instantly bring it back up to 100+>takes so long before you get hungry again you don't need to worry about food fatigue kicking inIt's legitimately that simple.
>>739961737>the core experience has been locked in for years now.Cool, it's in a "complete enough" state for me then. Thanks dude.
>>739959990The are dozens of food items, you can never run out of food unless you are new.Or are you talking about food spoiling and tolerance? You can disable both.
>>739960235Not yet.0.9n for now and updates are frequent as always.
>>739960235>any word on when it will be complete?somewhere along with uuuh summertime saga, project zomboid, yandere sim and scam citizen
Last time I tried it was the first experimental build and the fucking asshole added an event whereWolfgang can show up in your base and will actively attack you and the fucking event happened to me on like day 3Did he remove that or at least make it rarer because that shit basically made me shit my pants so hard I dropped it
>>739961447Nice hiss!
>>739962780>scam citizenthe quintessential forever grift, looked like a fun enough game before they added P2W. Glad I avoided that.>project zomboidThat's another one that looks good but I wonder what the deal is, hard to get down to earth opinions on these games where half the fans are jilted lovers and the other half are diehard cultists.
>>739959990millennials/zoomers/whoever and their obsession with realism is annoyingidk why they stop at hunger why not piss and shit too and let us not forget libidoi want my character to have to jack off and then piss to clear his urethra
>>739961447only if you leave them out for too long, like the ones in the ventnevermind the whole point of MREs maybe they've just been there for a hundred years
>>739961260all the obnoxious secrets are just for collectibles, the majority of events are pretty hard to miss even if you want to
>>739963073for project zomboid the devs are just lazy as fuck and never really cared about the game muchthere is no other excuse, it's been 12+ years now
>>739963256actually there is a pissing mechanic. It restores sanity, can be done once every few hours, and a little more frequently if you drink coffee (afaik).
>>739963281Last time I tried to open one from the barrel after a new update water gushed out and the components made me sick. They're waterlogged.
>>739960151>I don't want to eat that!Very cool
The gayest thing in this game is smoking cigs killing you within a couple days with cancer. You can disable the cancer damage but still get the terrible screen filter.
Thought this game was interesting until i found out the playerbase and dev are focused on waifu garbage
>>739964495This game is pretty much made for me but my opinion of it sinks it pretty bad because of the reason you state.
>>739963419the take the money and run scenario, tower unite was like thatqrd>popular gmod server>gets a standalone release>promises a bunch of pie in the sky features>10 years later they're just beginning to add them>backers log on just to see the updates and hate the game>daily players want the dev's to shift focus and improve the parts of the game they like>the devs want to make it a grinding simulator complete with dailies>nobody is happy but casuals who don't get investedif you were to jump into it now, it's enough a game that you're going to have fun but it's barely changed in 10 years and if you backed the project you got scammed hard. They're adding dailies soon so it's becoming more like an MMO which is something nobody wants.
>>739959990I don't remember it being too bad.Just remember to carry a couple MREs in your back pocket, and feed yourself when the need arises.What? Are you some sort of hopeless blob that would waste away if not for your elderly mother routinely braving your dungeon to hand-feed you tendies?
>>739960151>>739962449It's not that i'm having trouble finding it, it's the fact that it's a huge fucking waste of time and distracting.>Man, I'd really like to explore this game full of secrets all around me...but I need to stop cause my hunger gage is too low, so I need to head back to base to grind money so I can scrounge for food. Better take this 10 minute detour in my game so I can manage this fucking bar. THIS IS FUN BY THE WAY HA HA.Like, fucking why? It's not realistic cause it goes down way too fast and keeps interrupting you.>>739963256This guy fucking gets it. In fact, since we're managing food, why not add a weight mechanic to boot? Characters who are eating all this food get fat. Let's add in a gym mechanic where you have to regularly work out.>>739963423The difference with that is the game doesn't punish you for not stopping to interact>>739964963Carrying around junk in your limited inventory is a "solution", but it's just kicking the bucket down the road. What if you forget the bring food? Or, even if you are ubermencsh remembers-everything, what happens when you're out exploring for too long and you run out? Or even just "getting too low" to move forward? Welp time to stop the entire game to a screeching halt and go buy more food then. The game? Nah fuck you you don't get to play it until you address this HYPER IMPORTANT aspect.And for what? What does it even fucking add to the exploration and signal simulating? Literally the only thing it even adds in the horror aspect is the hallucinations. That's absolutely not worth it.
>>739961737Did you mean to say Day 49~ because when I got to around day 40, I started feeling like events were becoming too frequent. Then it abruptly runs out of things.
>>739965419Its annoying at first until you build habits that make it a non-issue. Shit like having a pile of MREs in your signal room and maxing out food before heading out seems obvious but it helps massively with not running out of hunger. Then you really only need a single MRE in your inventory in case of emergencies.>>739965759Iirc when it abruptly ends is kinda random. For me I would get tons of events day 30-40 then it all just abruptly stops too.
>>739965759earlier versions didn't have the greys so events wold have ended around then
>>739959990I just disable all the autistic nonsense via settings. I'm playing a vidya game nigga not a babysit simulator.
>>739962245>get a rock from outside or from the basement>bash open one of the many many crates>get a potato>microwave it for 60 seconds, and then wait a few minutes for it to cool>filling AND FREEThere are plenty of solutions to it, but it's still annoying.
>>739965419>Storing food in the limited inventory of your fridge is a 'solution', but its just kicking the bucket down the road.> What happens if you forget to buy groceries, or get so busy that you don't have time to buy any?Then you starve.I don't know what to tell you mate.I genuinely never expected to meet someone who felt oppressed by their body's intrinsic need for nourishment.You are truly a special breed.
>disable the new tower bullshit>spend my days earning money to buy stuff to put in the offering bowl at my waifu altar>getting signals while listening to 90s-early 00s eurodance>occasionally get spookedIf I couldnt toggle off the new busy work towers I'd probably have quit. The more the dev adds that isnt related to the core signal gathering loop the less the player will be able to see during a day.
>>739966352you're supposed to put fuses in the towers then they last for like 4 weeks without needing more
>>739965419Hunger is meant to reinforce that Exploration is a reward for doing your job well and planning ahead.Without it you blitz through the content too quickly, which while you could technically fix by compressing the amount of days for things to happen also then costs the atmosphere built up by its length.In other words banality is good to make things meaningful, and if everything was meaningful all the time the feel of the work would be lost.
>>739966254Ohl, oh wow! The real life argument! You're so right queen, it's JUST like real life!You know what else is like real life and should be added to the game?NO FUCKING ALIENS! IT'S JUST LIKE REAL LIFE, THERE SHOULDN'T BE ANY FUCKING ALIENS, SO WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY THERE IT'S NOT LIKE REAL LIFE! AND YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE IS NOT LIKE REAL LIFE?! THE LACK OF COWORKERS! A PLACE THIS BIG SHOULD HAVE 3-4 PEOPLE MANNING IT AT MINIMUM! WE SHOULD FUCKING ADD COWORKERS, CAUSE THAT"S LIKE REAL LIFE TOO! YOU FUCKING BRAINDEAD ANIMAL I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU.>>739966541>Hunger is meant to reinforce that Exploration is a rewardBull fucking shit, exploration is its own reward, I don't need fucking hunger mechanics to reinforce anything. The reward is not heightened in any capacity because the game forces me to stop exploring so I can interact with a survival mechanic that has no place being in here.
>>739959990Every time I see something new about this game it just sounds even more obnoxious.>The controls fucking suck, somehow>The inventory system sucks>The food/sleep sucks>The character is picky about what food he eats>The entire base is a mess and you need to complete 8,000 chores to find the time to clean it up>If something sells for a lot, it gets nerfed>The new event is some NES era secret you would never figure out without looking it up online
>>739964095Stop shoving fags in your mouth then, gaylord
>>739964095the screen filter is from being low health, radiation and smoking reduce your maximum health so that just becomes your default until you cure it
>>739967634The really sad thing is that the game is based off of Signal Simulator, which had a perfect gameloop, but all of the events felt half baked and more like half-finished easter eggs as opposed to actual "content," and then the dev went AWOL. But it was great because the game was focused entirely on what it wanted you to do, which is simulate signal finding. Voices of the Void feels like the Dev is trying to shove minecraft into the game.
>>739968176>and then the dev went AWOLHe got conscripted due to being Ukranian iirc
>>739959990Steam version when
>>739968242I found the guy's linked in. He's apparently in Bulgaria. He just stopped working on it and went to work as a projectionist in a movie theater. Allegedly he's been working on a new game since 2023 though.
>>739967098I think the issue here is that you want to game to just be about something its only partly about.The core of the game is the day to day loop of doing your job, which the hunger system reinforces and the exploration serves as a mid-late game mechanical break from.The actual meat of the game is getting up in the morning, doing your daily chores, using the downtime and funds to clean up your base and get upgrades, then spending the evenings relaxing and getting signals with the occasional nighttime issue or event to liven up the gameplay experience and introduce tension.And then once you have lightened your chore load via upgrades and settled into the banality of your job, then you start exploring to fill the time.Meaningful exploration is "endgame" content for when you have mastered the core gameplay loop to keep you playing, not the primary focus.
>>739959990Wait until you find out about the half-assed radio tower decay mechanic>>739964495What's more obnoxious is that he's trying to shove his goonerbait in the game without being too obvious because 100% of votv's audience comes from twitch streamers that bitch and moan about anything conventionally sexual
>>739968242He's a Bulgarian dev living in Bulgaria which is well over a thousand kilometers from Ukraine, retard. Also he abandoned the game years before the war broke out.
>>739968858>I think the issue here is that you want to game to just be about something its only partly about.Right, which is why 90% of the content in the game is shit you get when you hit on a signal or you explore outside, meanwhile you interact with the job portion of the game for like 2 minutes at a time then just wait, right?Fuck off with your pseudo-intellectual youtube video essayist bullshit. Literally everything would change for the better if you just outright removed the hunger mechanic without fail. Some vocal retards might bitch and moan, but there's a reason we don't put pissing mechanics into every single game inspite of "how realistic!" it would be, and that's because it just gets in the way of everything and causes you to spend time other games are more than happy to just handwave away as "You just do this in the background."
>>739968639>went to work as a projectionist in a movie theater.I'm legitimately surprised that's still even an actual job. I just kind of figured movie projectors were fully automated at this point or at the very least simplified to the point where any pizza face part time teenager could operate them.
>>739969325I didn't find the food stat to be an issue at all. Are you running around instead of using the ATV?
>>739969325Honestly the fact you're struggling with the hunger mechanic just tells me you suck shit at the game. It's basically a non issue as long as you're not retarded. Besides, grilling some fish and shrimp on the barby outside while you wait for a signal to finish processing is peak comfy.
>>739969325The existence of content does not inherently more it part of the core gameplay loop.I can make a 100 pages of a lore codex for a Turn Based RPG you unlock mainly by exploring the map, but that's not the core gameplay.The Hunger Mechanic serves to put a new player on the backfoot when they start the game and as I said before force them to slow down and experience the core gameplay loop before it gets simplified by upgrades and going into exploration proper.And it is designed in such a way as to be trivial for more experienced players who already know what to do and it doesn't matter as much to maintain the games tone and atmosphere because they already have achieved a level fo mastery and know what they are in for.Also I said exploration happens anyway, it fills the hole that base cleanup and upgrades serve at the start of the game once you get those sorted.
OJOJOJOJOJOJOJOJ
>struggling with hunger mechanics>when you get a free MRE shipped to you every day at midnight>when there's free cans of food stored around the base>when there's also burgers scattered around the base
>>739961737>>739965759Isn't it not supposed to be the end at day 40? I thought that was just when you were supposed to start getting Greys, but there were like goblins and these scavenger things that were going to come afterwards?
>>739961887Meanwhile Abiotic Factor in its own sectors like Hydroplant runs like ASS because of how much shit it loads
>>739969319>conventionally sexual>ugly furshit catgirls with anatomically correct cat nipples
>Hand me my patching trowel, Kerfus
>>739971487That was my point anon. He can't add conventionally sexual things because streamers will bitch about it so he adds shit like ambiguous gender broad-shoulder robots and invisible furry catgirls with ugly ass low poly models (oh but faggytranny player model can by highly detailed!)
>>739971370just putting too much stuff in your base kills framerate, it always gets you eventually no matter where you are
>>739972831>dude just recolor humansunbased takeI, for one, find it hotter that the aliens are actually a little freaky looking
>>739959990>Holy shit the hunger mechanic is pure cancer. This would be a 10/10 game otherwise.>eat once a day>cancerHow you manage to keep breathing is amazing.
Why the fuck did they remove the map clip spot?
>>739961737Hi there
>>739963281The one in the vent is poisonous because the vents are full of asbestos
>>739963073>half the fans are jilted lovers and the other half are diehard cultists.if half the fans are obsessed and the other half were so obsessed they wrapped around to becoming haters i assume the game is worth playing
>>739976612I suspect there's a lot of fags like you see in these threads telling him to get rid of the funny stuff and make it a "real" horror game, so he's been steadily removing stuff like the console commands or hiding it all behind the "funny" setting. Even something as simple as custom posters have to be toggled first now.
>>739976892People bitching about VotV get angry at the weirdest stuff.Like, the gameplay revolves around going OUTSIDE and people will go out of their way to not go outside as much as possible, and then get so mad they shit themselves over new gameplay elements getting added that make them go outside.In fact almost every new gameplay element that has been added has caused people to bitch endlessly about it.
>>739977072Well then what the fuck do we do when Kerfur gets stuck under the map again?
>>739977136Get fucked I guess. I've already had the event that sends it to the meat dimension delete it from the game entirely the next time I interacted with it, I suspect it's because I had like six of them.
>>739977116The game garnered a discord clique and discord clique's tend to be filled with mentally ill people who crave comfort above all else, and VotV is a game where its very easy to make your base comfy while the outside can often be dangerous, thus in the back of their minds these kinds get mad at having to go outside int he game.And often IRL
>>739977116>>739977721I think people not wanting to go outside stemmed from the earlier versions having much worse orbs, like you just didn't want to risk going there when they were out at all
>>739978521I remember in 0.7 my retarded robot child led a wisp right to me while I was sleeping, good times
>>739977116if you're talking about the cord towers that shit was bullshit when it came out.having to crossmap just to fix one is not fun at all
>>739968176My biggest gripe with voices is that there's not enough focus on signal finding or varied signals to find, so it doesn't do that good of a job of slowly building atmosphere so when something strange does happen it really has impact. The reward system for doing your job is also ass, so you're better off doing anything else besides looking for signals for money. It also doesn't help that when he does add new content, a lot of the time it's some hyper specific random bullshit you'd only ever know about from a guide or walk through rather than stumbling on yourself.
>>739960235it's an alpha game that made the russian creator a millionaire on patreon. what that usually means is it's in development until the money stops coming in. this is both a blessing and a curse. the game will obviously never be completed, but it will also be free and get updates constantly.
>>739961887abiotic factor uses lumen for lighting, and is smart about light placement. votv takes fucking point lights that cast shadows and can be moved, the absolute most expensive light possible in unreal engine, and slams them into everything, ensuring they overlap 90 times with each other, nuking the frame rate from orbit.
>>739970343hes playing it now
>>739962245This post must have took a lot of restraint.
>>739967098>The real life argument! You're so right queen, it's JUST like real life!You just complained about it not being realistic in the previous post...
So does anything happen after the pyramid bitch sucks the orbs?I've been playing for like 10 days after that event and fuck all has happened since then.
>>739965419>Let's add in a gym mechanic where you have to regularly work out.Funnily enough this was promised years ago but was never implemented
>>739984170if you're before day 39 you can catch the hole repair event, after that the greys start dropping harassing you with a big event on day 47. Both of these are late at night and hard to notice so don't sleep through them.

>>739984859my blue mushroom farm begs to differ
>>739984859the cameras in the base keep me safe
>>739959990I can't believe this hunger mechanic is getting in the way of my simulated chores. I need to pretend to mop the floor and hang up anime posters while I dilate.
Is Story mode the best way to play the game?
>>739967098>exploration is its own rewardthis, why does every game have to be farmville?
>>739985828A good chunk of events are story mode only. It doesn't have an ending yet either so there's no real reason to bother with infinite or ambient unless you're a bitch who doesn't want stuff to happen.
Roundhouse kick an ariral.
>>739985969Because its a game about working a solo shift at a rundown isolated Satellite Facility with supernatural elements that has exploration included.And not a game that uses working a solo shift at a rundown isolated Satellite Facility with supernatural elements as a backdrop for exploration.
>>739959990I feel like pizza costs around or slightly more than the money you get for sending in the log tapes each day. Even if I wasn't living off food i find lying around for weeks it's pretty manageable. It's certainly not worse than all the other stuff you have to run around and keep running
idk how tf you're supposed to get ahead in points in 9.0. Between having to purchase new fuses and food and drive boxes it's impossible to complete tasks daily. It feels too hard now to keep up now and I'm permanently stuck at level 0 processing because there literally isnt enough time in the day to complete all the tasks
>>739986797baguettes are probably the best food item for their price, pizza is a waste
>>739986901Yeah the fuses are fucking stupid
>>739986901I ignore hash codes until i get the good kerfur and dont bother with fuses beyond what i can make with scrap. You get less money but keeping things going well enough for log tapes and signals is low overhead so I make progress.
>>739976695is this fnaf shit
>>739986995Wait, you can craft fuses?
>>739986901I get processing 3 right away and never miss a task, try gitting gud maybe.
>>739965419>What if you forget the bring food? Then you get punished for not being prepared. That's kind of how video games work retard-kun. Do you complain when you take damage in other games because you forgot to avoid/block an attack?>Or, even if you are ubermencsh remembers-everything, what happens when you're out exploring for too long and you run out?Bring an MRE or two. Maybe a soda or coffee as well. Shit, I'd say that even adds to the exploration. A long expedition should require supplies and planning.
>>739986995>dont bother with fusesbut you can't get new signals if one of the coordinate towers are down
>>739986737your moms a game about whatever that shit is you typedfr though, I thought the main appeal of this game was the events, but it's main appeal is mundane day job simulator?look at it this way, if I removed the the events would you still play the game?if i removed managing your sims needs would you still play the game?
>>739987028copper wire, electric and metal scrapit used to also need glass but as of the latest version it no longer doescopper wire can be made with five electric scrap but gets eight uses
>>739987028If I remember right. Little expensive so I don't bother often but good option.>>739987069Well the downside is sometimes the towers go down a few times in a row but then theyll randomly be good for a couple days and I get to stay home and clean.
>>739986901The answer is still the humble lemon tree farm by the river, and growing potatoes / puffballs for food. Never order food unless it's shrimp.
I just want Noise to add a standard paper map that you can carry around (and I don't mean the poster plastered on the wall in the base). Fuck using a digital map that shows your location and coordinate or using sv.target on the computer terminals. Give me a good old fashion topographical map and let me navigate the old fashion way
>>739987269I got a dozen orange trees and they really don't feel worth the effort to pick them. Two baocoin farms hooked to the generator makes way more with no effort at all, apart from having to replug them every time I load the save.Pumpkins also seem like the best plantable food since they don't need cooking and can get you into the mine.
>>739967634What's funny is reading the comments on votv's itch io page and seeing all the damage control and glazing from the fans whenever someone criticized any changes. Fakest cult of faggots protecting derivative slop. Dr Nose is too pussy to ever take the game to Steam also, to avoid being dragged through the mud by the jaded retards in the Steam forums & reviews.
>>739963073Basically it's everyone who bought the game 15 years ago shitting on the devs because the devs are known for permabanning anyone who asks about NPCs or criticizes the game then throwing shitfits threatening to stop working on the game. That's why every single piece of discussion you see about the game is positive.
>>739987516it's free there's no reason to bother putting it on steam in the first place
does the dev have like ultra ADHD or some shit
>>739987561he's like 20 so it's a safe bet to assume yes
>>739960235how many years left until the sun envelops the earth?
>>739987074I find your question to be a false equivalence because needs are a single part of the greater doing your job aspect of the game that is the core gameplay loop, while the events are things that happen to shake up the core gameplay loop and are the "on the box selling point" of the game .One is part of a greater system and the other is an entire aspect of the game.So while removing either would make the game worse the events are the selling point and ethos of the game while removing player needs would just detract from the moment to moment playing of the game but it would still be playable.
>>739987618nta but I didnt know he was 16 years younger than me while I was playing his game a bunch. Good on that guy.
>>739987630we're just disagreeing about what the core gameplay loop is,I say it's hang out at base, find signal, go out and explore, with all the survival elements being needless busywork that gets in the way of that loopyou say it's the sims but with only one character
>>739960235the dev is making like 20 fucking thousand a month from the game's patreon. it will literally never be finished. why would you give up that money? just keep stringing donators along forever dripfeeding random updates
>>739987780That a fair assessment, to me the core loop is, wake up, do chores, do maintenance, find signals, deal with events that come to you or get in the way and things breaking as they come, sleep, repeat.With the exploration being one of the things you do in the downtime between the other parts of that routine alongside stuff like cleaning up and decorating.
>>739988164have you tried the sims? it's got that same gameplay loop and i really enjoy it. only difference being instead of finding signals you can have your sim do a multitude of jobs with different events and random events like vampires, aliens, burglars, etc . you can even turn events off in some of them. sounds like it would appeal to you way better no offense. there's even way more furniture and you can build your own house any way you want it.
>>739960806unlike cubeworld it is freebut the early access cycle can be a harsh mistress
>>739959990So, this game is more like Voices of the Furry these days ?
>>739988693The game literally began with the name Signal Simulator: Ariral Edition. If anything it's less focused on them than it was originally.
>>739988371I actually have and it wasn't to my taste, I need some friction and goals that VotV gives me, plus I like the signal gameplay and the exploration during downtime. Plus the fantasy the game provides of chilling in the mountains working on all this machinery with a looming sense of danger for what's out there is a enjoyable feeling. Have you tried Otter Wilds, its a fantastic exploration puzzle game about traveling from planet to planet in your ship and delving deeper into the mysteries of your solar system.Its a legit shame I can only play it blind once, its that good.Also I'm like 70% sure your taking the piss out of me but I'm still responding in good faith, seriously based upon what you say you like I think you would love Outer Wilds
>>739986901my plan was:>run to TR2 on Night 1 (get the shovel in the rafters)>shovel all the trash lumps in the base>sell the mannequins, trash, MRE's, fire extinguishers, curtains, ect.>put it all on ping speed / download speedIt kinda worked, but not really. I was thousands of point up, but then I invested in Boa coin miners...and...>drive boxesYou don't get them for free every night anymore?Did you get the drive box at __TR3__?
>>739988445I'm the jilted lover of cubeworld. It was going to be such a good game that I imagined in my head but it never got there then the dev shuttered it and disappeared, only to resurface years later with a skinwalker of a gameit haunts me still
>>739988802i haven't played it I just don't like you on a personal level
>>739989094That's fair, but seriously don't let the fact that I'm the one recommending it to you dissuade you from checking it out its good.
>>739969874It was probably one of those olde-timeye hipster ones. I have one like that in my city that I live in where they advertise that fairly often.
>>739989170naw you're alright, it's on my wishlist, i just hate this cycle of every indie game being turned into the exact same game of survival crafting grind somewhere in it's development, it's been happening since minecraft.
>>739986396Based
Yo, my download speed is slow as fuck, I maxxed out download speed and the servers should be fine. It used to be faster but now it feels like it takes forever and I can't even reach the daily quota in time. Any ideas? Is my save broken? Am I doing something wrong? Is it just luck?
>>739970047>I didn't find the food stat to be an issue at all.>>739970081>you're struggling with the hunger mechanicThat's not the fucking problem you twin headed behemoth idiot. I'm not having an "issue" with the food. It's not "difficult", and more importantly it's not interesting, but it IS disruptive to the shit I WANT to be doing. It's like imagine trying to play a game of chess, except every fourth move I come in and tell you that you have to stop the game to go water a plant. Like, yeah, dipshit. Watering the plant isn't difficult. But if you don't do it I'm going to start moving pieces, and if you CONTINUE to not do it, I'm gonna knock your board over. So stop thinking about the game you're playing and go water this plant. Is this fun? Is this adding to your game of chess?>B-but Chess Boxing is aDie.>>739970284>The existence of content does not inherently more it part of the core gameplay loop.Then that fucking goes both ways for the fucking hunger mechanic. It's not the core gameplay loop, it's a disruptive element there that adds literally nothing. >The Hunger Mechanic serves to put a new player on the backfoot when they start the game and as I said before force them to slow down and experience the core gameplay loop before it gets simplified by upgrades and going into exploration proper.Except that's why the game is failing. You don't NEED the hunger mechanic to get this desired effect. You already get this from the economy of the game, the daily tasks, and the fact that the signals themselves unlock more of the content. The player is already on the backfoot enough as it is because of the sanity mechanic, the previously mentioned elements, and the fact that the machines are so slow and prone to failure.What you're saying is like "Oh, there should be a disease mechanic in the game to set the player on the backfoot so they'll clean their base." They'll already fucking do that because they're on the backfoot from the base looking like shit.
This dude is extremely autistic, don't even bother engaging because it's just sperg rage, not rationality.
>>739987516to be fair if you put a game on steam, you have to pay for it to be up there, which isn't great for a patreon funded 'free' game.i wish he had put it up there back on 0.4 to incentivise FINISHING the game instead of adding hundreds of new side content secrets, and rebuilding the main base AGAIN.
>>739988693No but you can make the your work station look as furry as you want, or just anything in general you want. The game is almost as customizable as GarrysMod.
>>739983976>You just complained about it not being realistic in the previous post...And my solution in that same post and in the thread was to remove it entirely, thus removing the element that fails any sense of realism at all?
>>739989494>but it IS disruptive to the shit I WANT to be doing.Just have an MRE table, put all the MREs inside of the table's storage or place a crate underneath full of MREs, place a couple of them on top and eat them when you need to.Are you retarded? It only takes you 10 fucking seconds. I only eat once or twice per fucking day.
>>739986737Absolutely none of that shit follows whatsoever and it is basically a nonsequitor.
>>739989296>minecraftIt's the same cycle with so many indie games, the dev comes up with a unique concept, the primaries talk about the game and how excited they are for it, then secondaries come along and start throwing money at the guy to turn the game into a sim.with minecraft the initial appeal, the gameplay loop if you will, was survive the night. you go out during the day, gather resources, build your base, then at night your base gets attacked. that was the game and it was fun as fuck. then suddenly a new fanbase came along and started demanding that it become farmville with extra steps.if those guys had never existed, the game would have continued it's development path of being a survive the night game. we would have got new monsters, new weapons, new base buidling mechanics.what we got was watering crops, like nilla please, please just go play farmville stop killing great games in the cradle because your life isn't stressful enough and you need to simulate poverty to feel alive.
>>739989565Agree, he's a complete retard
>>739988952Yes I got the one thereand yeah they dont give you them or free anymore

>>739987038You didn't even defeat the arguments in that post, you just proved it right. It's still a disruptive element. And no, it is definitely not a "long exploration" game to pretend that logistics are a thing, especially if you're just handwaving this away with "Oh just bring a soda" to end the problem; You're just highlighting the same exact problem.>>739963073>That's another one that looks good but I wonder what the deal isMy honest opinion as someone who basically avoided online and other players, the "It's Sims with Zombies" comparison runs way deeper than the fact that it artistically looks like the sims. Once you get to a point where you can consistently survive to like 3-5 days in and get the hang of the system, you slowly realize that you unironically got tricked into playing the sims, because there is NOTHING to do in the game except to live for the sake of living. You just decorate your house, get fit, cook food, and make a farm. Sounds like fun if you're really into Sims or into multiplayer, but honestly not for me.
>>739989296Cool, take care man.
>>739989823How about a better idea: Remove the food and hunger mechanic period. If you keep deflecting with "oh this problem is so simple," then why the fuck am I dealing with the problem? It's just annoying.
>>739990168>"It's Sims with Zombies"thanks dude, hard pass on it.
>>739990357ARE YOU PLAYING ON FAMINE MODE?
>>739990473BITCH NIGGER WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU NOT UNDERSTANDING ABOUT "IT'S NOT DIFFICULT, IT'S JUST NOT INTERESTING AND IT DISRUPTS WHAT YOU ARE DOING" ARE YOU NOT FUCKING UNDERSTANDING YOU BABOON?!LET ME FUCKING TURN OFF THE HUNGER METER, AND YOU WOULD HAVE A 10/10 GAME.
>>739990624pretty sure you can, its in the settings next to all the other things like food boredom
>>739990624Do you find doing the Hashcodes disruptive?
>>739990669Nah I unironically looked. There's food spoilage and food tolerance, and those can be turned off, but there's no option to turn off hunger altogether.>>739990683No they are fun and part of the loop I came in to play: Signal Simulator's spiritual successor. I WANT to maintain the servers and do the signals and hashes, so I want that to be the focus of the gameplay I'm engaging with.
>>739959990Hunger mechanics in any game are cancer and gay>OH BOY MY NUMBER WENT DOWN TIME TO CLICK A THING TO MAKE IT GO BACK UP IR ELSE I DIEI dropped Tarkov right around when they added a bunch of gay shit like that
>>739969874Back when I worked at a movie theater 15 years ago there was so little for the projectionist to do 95% of the time he was working the kitchen.
>>739990624https://thunderstore.io/c/voices-of-the-void/p/nido/NoHunger/HERE YOU FUCKING HAVE IT
>>739990798Yeah I have that up on another tab. I'm going to install that before I play it again, but I find it obnoxious that this isn't a base game option.
>>739976695I saw that thing once. It doesn't do anything but disappear if you get to close to it. Looks absolutly ridiculous with my Gamma up so high though.
>>739990850im ok with having shit like that not be a base game option, because you can just launch cheat engine and grab the number as it goes down, or before adn after eating, and just set it to stay at 75% at all times (you can still eat and drink if you want for some reason (coffee) but never need to worry) since you're fine with playing the game in your own way.
Umwhat the FUCK is happening here?Ive played til day 49 in a past version and ive never seen this
>>739992982Boss time :)
>>739993103What do you MEAN a boss????????????
>>739993213
>>739992201By that argument, they should take out the food spoilage and the food tolerance and every other option too, including things like selecting a difficulty or style of play.
>it dropped an Omega AI Moduleo fuk
>>739962780even if you cross the finish line, you might get stuck with a 7dtd
>>739986995Does the game ever tell you what you can craft? I remember booting a new game up and seeing a piece of paper mentioning crafting but never got it to work.
>>739993369not quite, spoilage and tolerance aren't JUST a number go down ticker.you COULD probably find the tolerance list by setting it as unknown, eating something, looking for increase, repeat till you hit tolerance, and loop forever, the try with decrease, repeat.but spoilage is per item.but yeah, go ahead and turn off whatever, its a game, it doesn't actually matter.i like to cheat in the first 100 points to get set up with the scanning.sure i COULD farm up points selling trash for the hook, then drag the MRE barrel out and sell it off to get to the same point, but i've not done about 8 different versions of this game, and theres a minimum level i like to start at.
Whats going on here, aren't you supposed to use the hook to get the card? Did they change it so that doesnt work anymore?
>>739990624I can't let you do that, Star Fox
>>739993826It is/was bugged. You are indeed supposed to use the hook. Try updating the client if you haven't.
>>739989482Calibrate the satellites?
>>739963256>why not piss and shitNoise should unironically add shit. Vomit too. Make it so eating spoiled food causes uncontrollable vomiting and explosive diarrehia and then make it so you slip and ragdoll if you step in puddles of diarrehia. Watch new players cry about how they're constantly shitting and puking all over themselves and falling in their own shitAlso it'd only be a matter of time before some anon makes it his goal to bury the India satellite in a massive pile of poop and take a screenshot
>>739993926Sweet that fixed it, thanks for the notice
last time i played it was right before the gameplay update with the fuses and new minigames and stuff. is it worth starting again?
Can't you turn sleep/hunger off in the options when you load your game?
>>739959990>play new update after 0.8 really excited to see what 0.9 bought>order shrimp, 2/3 packets are radioactive and give you cancer you need to pay 250 to cure>atv is downgraded and you need to spend 1500+ points to get back to a state it was default in 0.8>dev added logs and rocks everywhere so you constantly hit shit which also degrades the tyres>servers now need 2-3 upgrades each on every single terminal so they dont die every 3 seconds>fuses breaking every 2 hours>have to buy concrete and spend 2 hours plapping walls to get rid of the 10000 cracks everywhere>twice as much garbage everywhere>whole entire update just went to making more tedium and to add farming that no one cared aboutNice update. Really loving all this new "content"
>>739994307you can already shitthere's even an achievement for leaving the arirals a friendly welcome gift
>>739986797>buying pizza>not making it yourself>>739986901i just set time speed to 0.8 and I'm managing, also just selling every piece of trash will give you a bunch of point>>739987295>not making your own shitty notebook map
>>739959990lmao there is a lot more wrong with the game other than the hamfisted and safety-pinned hunger mechanics.
>>739997941>not making your own game
>>739969320Bulgaria is the brown version of ukraine
finally a votv threadpost here if you didn't get filtered by the tutorial
>>739959990Decided to try out this PoS on a whim after having heard of it the past decade or so.First few days pretty fun, getting to learn the gameloop, cleaning up, making the station (you)r's.Day 22+ : Nothing is fucking happening, there's hippies making a treehouse but everything fucks off into the void whenever I get near. I have spent countless hours exploring, chasing red dots that just disappears whenever I get close. What's my incentive to go explore again?All that has happened within those 22+ days is a weird fnaf creature walking around, a worm moved in and fucked off, and those Ariral faggots making their clubhouse.Fuck this nigger """game""", waste of time. I love the concept, the execution is dogshit. Oh, here's a jumpscare! remember its a spook game! Haha! :D
>>739987038> Bring an MRE or two> 228 weight each, filling up half of your inventory> open> it's 5 crackers and 1 stew
>kept on grabbing the testbuilds for 0.9 whenever they released and playing each for a little bit>by the time the update actually fully releases for real i have no desire to actually play it
>>739968858>>739970284So much this. Wake up, send tapes/drives, eat, check mail, order upgrades/stuff, destroy mannequins, check towers/transformers, send zip drive, scan, sleep loop is the core gameplay loop. Finding that loop is one of the pillars of the game experience, because at first you struggle with food, navigation, failing infrastructure, junk, night rides and batteries.
what is the best correction applicable to smug arirals
>>740002283Shrimp denial
>>739989482You can skip quotas for few days, collect 10-20 signals, unlock processing 1 and then just process them and send 3 every day as new, unlock processing 2, process, send 3 and so on.
>>739959990>Perfectly functional control scheme for 80% of development that I never saw a single complaint about.>Gets changed to fiddly nested keybinds.>achieve anything new except letting you micro-position an item, which could have been achieved with the prior scheme anyway. okay.
>>739994945>>740001370You can really tell DrNose is no longer paying attention and there's one or two devs with autism running the show now. lots of "fun" improvements.

The Russian furfag and his barely disguised fetish of a video game only has any relevancy because of this guy and his pathological fear of gray aliens. The moment he goes full retard and he gets a full-blown fetish scene live on stream, he's memory holing the existence of this "game" and with it all of Dr. Nose's relevance will fade away.And yes, cope all you want, Nose is dependent on Joel, otherwise he wouldn't be sitting in every one of his VotV streams and adding shit to the game based on what happened last stream just to personally fuck with him. Not to mention that he lost the plot of what VotV was meant to be years ago, where instead of replicating the desolate feel of Signal Simulator, he threw in everything including the kitchen sink resulting in some wacky fucky clownshow, including his retarded OC's that are cutesy alien catgirls that like eating shrimps. Because yeah, that's exactly what made Joel's Signal Simulator streams so funny and made him shit his pants so much. Definitely not a case of the dev shoehorning his fetishes into everyone's faces while utilizing Joel's streams as the launchpad.
>>740006172medsnow
bros I think I just got raped...
>>740007014This shit is so stupid.
>>740007014don't worry about it. ack ack ack.
>>740007014I wish I thought to take the water guns in earlier versions they're very handy for cleaning the base. The regular power washer is still better for the main windows because its faster to refill from the shower than waiting for the other to recharge.
>>740007452umm that would be stealing and that's not ok
>>740007743I paid with shrimp. They don't break in to take it back like the gun so they must not miss it too badly.
>>739999801i got SUPER filtered, because i found the pool room on my first go through, so i never found out about generators, or how to fix servers until day 30.
>>740008028you will pay with your "shrimp" yes
Am getting pissed off at the bloat of mechanics that got nothing to do with looking for signals being shoved into the game>cleaning>farming>minecraft building>fishingFor what fucking purpose... I can play other games that lets me do these but better, all of it just distracts you from the main appeal of the game
>>740008382this is a cozy game bro like stardew valley or animal crossingit was never meant to be a fully fledged horror game
>>740008315If my shrimpy can please 7 foot alien catgirls then I can't complain
does kel still starve himself if you don't put him on a convoluted eating regimen instead of just eatings mres?worst mechanic ive even seen in a video game
>>740008606No. Eating only one food over and over just restores less hunger, but MRE isn't just one food anymore, it breaks apart into various things so food tolerance isn't an issue anymore.
>>740008881thanks for the answer bro
>>740006172This so fucking much. I loaded up Signal Simulator because of this thread to try it out again, and the atmosphere of this game BLOWS VotV out of the water because VotV has so much clown shit in there now. They've really lost the plot.
>>740008606Not all of us are built different like Steve. If I had to eat nothing but swiss army rations I'd probably want to kill myself too.
>>739959990a once-beloved game that somehow gets more bloated and unfun with each patch. i wish he'd start over from scratch.
>>740009317>i wish he'd start over from scratch.we just need someone else to go "hmm I think I can copy Signal Simulator and VotV but make it better"
>>740009129At least you don't have to eat a meal every 5 minutes and own a microwave that requires half of the day to heat up some noodles. I presume.
>>740008881> Eating only one food over and over just restores less hungerNo.> but MRE isn't just one food anymore, it breaks apart into various thingsCrackers packs and stew trays >>740001370
>>740009560I just grow pumpkins and eat the slices all day. Slices that somehow take up more inventory space than the whole pumpkin they come from.
>>739999801the tutorial filters people? how?
>>740009932It doesn't. He made that up.
It's incredible how nose made 1 good server fixing minigame, and every other one he added after that is dogshit
>>739976695Is that what the invisible cat bitches look like now in game?
>>740010131I assume it's a new 'Forbidden' entity which are not canon
>>740010123I'm glad you can just turn them all off. The numbers was simple, quick and fun to actually has a point reward to motivate getting better at it (pb is ~4.5 seconds)The rest are just huge wastes of time, especially that fucking meme maze.
>>740010131>>740010346It's just an edit, the ariral are still not visible
>>739994431do not play past .7
>she struggles with the maze minigamelollmeow
>>740007452those things fucking suck for cleaning the basethe mega sponge is the real winner
>>740007452>I wish I thought to take the water guns in earlier versionsI tried that but the process just failed and didn't transfer over in a usable formit's not possible. You'll just have to get them in a regular playthrough and then start over
>>740011452One click cleans the exact spot you're aiming at and nothing else, the trick is to mash click all over. The megasponge is best but you have to wait longer for the event to get it.>>740011518I meant using it in previous versions, I've played for a while but only realized what they were most recently.
>>740011697Also that's just for windows, for wall dirt you can just hold once until it's gone, much better than the sponge because of their absurd range.Cement on the other hand is much faster mash clicking than holding it.
>>740011820what do you do about floor dirt? The rug in the bedroom is filthy as fuck and the broom doesnt seem to have an effect
>>740011941sponge, mop and power washers work on everything, the game doesn't make any distinction between surfaces. I never used the broom, don't know if you even can.
>>740010427> especially that fucking meme mazeLines for me.
>>740010427> The numbersAnd logic.
>>739968176i thought they were made by the same guy wtfwas never interested in votv because it seemed like a massive downgrade compared to signal simulator.
>>740012032>I never used the broom, don't know if you even can.I use to sweep up trash piles and debris
>>740013080I just use the shovel for blobs, and mash e+r for the piles of loose stuff
>>740013165its satisfying to push things around :)
>>740011941>>740012032Also, if it's cracks then it has to be patched with cement. The ultimate male fantasy.

>>740009457All you need is someone who isn't a psychofan of Joel and isn't a permanently online retard, to memory hole VotV and replicate Signal Simulator. The desolate atmosphere, the paranoid fear of something being there even though there isn't, none of this clown show everything including the kitchen sink bullshit, just a laser focus on SETI and grey aliens. That's all that was needed to get Joel to shit his pants and leave timeless comedy gold, Dr. Nose doesn't understand that though.
>>739971370>>739973941Maybe stop running it on ewaste? I've never had a performance issue, and I've been using 1440p native, max settings, tsr supersampling.
>>739977072>>739977116People don't want the "skibidi toilet poopoopeepee haha funny joel reference pls pls pls fuck my ass joel haha look at my atrocious fetishes koo koo katchoo" shit. How does that translate into "remove the little clipping spot used for working around clipping issues" and "instead of adding signals, add 90001 busywork tedium things to do and make them expensive to maintian"?

>>740026881How do i get my lemon farm started? Come to think of it, i dont think i've ever interacted with any of the farming mechanics
>>740032978You till the ground with a rake and plant a seed there. Plants have to either be near water or watered with a can or a sprinkler or it dies, including fully grown trees for some reason.
>>739960235You missed the time to start, it went to shit when he updated the base so find an old version with the old base and play that if you're interested.
>>740032978I just littered the riverside outside the garage with lemon treesI have 40 trees and picking all the fruit daily takes a few hours of work
>>740033205Can a rake be found on site or does it have to be purchased?
>>740033813I don't think so. It's not cheap either. A rake, sprinkler, hose and faucet are like a thousand baobux total.
>>740033813I used a shovel, it works the sameyou can find a shovel in one of the transformers, on the raftersor on the guard booth where you initially spawn, but it requires a bit of parkour to get out and into the booth
>>739994945yeah, he adds all this bullshit for streamers, i dunno why he thinks doing everything but the signals is a good idea>he won't port old events from the old base, he won't do it again with the latest map either>barely any signals added, signals that have been added have no responses despite being the wackiest shit ever>game forces you to do everything BUT signals just to be able to get aheadand he'll probably update the map, again, and remove events that will be "updated" for the new map, only to not do it, againor he'll waste time programming and putting in a secret easter egg that isn't related to the game at all and is infact some discord/streamer meme

>>740035706>in the work roomWhat do you do when the obelisk strikes?
>>740036461https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EL0GFV6c2Pk
>>740036578Ill never forget the first time that happened to me, it was like a scene in a movie. I approach the workstation, observe my progress then i grab a cigarette and I'm about to light it when all of a sudden I start hearing a *whoosh* and I'm like "What that's noise...?" and then BOOOOOOSH, im sent flying, alarms going off and I thought I died for a moment. I like to imagine a shot of my character flying backwards Shit was funny as fuck, the timing was so perfect
>>740037074ok but I was being seriousIf you know where the Obelisk lands, you can put a trampoline thereThere's an achievement for it
>>740037228I better get on that, my current run is day 20 and its only a matter of time now...
>>740028713Game actually is scary until it's spoiled for you. If you actually play it blind it's plenty spooky.
>>740006172>VOTV dev spamming Joel with HEY BUT WHAT ABOUT MY GAME messages the entire Signal Simulator revisit streamDeeply embarrassing
>>740037434did he actually do that lmfao what a pathetic little cuntalso he revisited it? should check it out desu
>>740037228the funny setting also has to be enabled or it won't work
1600 points ez
>>740037952I'm not mexican bro I don't have time to pick 40 lemon trees
>>740037635
>>740038069then be a real nigger and invest on the crypto miner
>>740032965rent free
>>740037364Even spoiled randomness and unpredictability spook.
>>740038351Did he really repeat messages like that?
>>740038351life-altering cringe
>>739961737Honestly, the game needs to unbind some of the events to specific dates.Having shit like the wisps or Grey invasion last longer depending on difficulty, or lasting longer if an event goes undone after a certain date would do wonders for longevity.
>>739959990Biggest issue with this game is how half the mechanics can be disabled.It makes people less likely to complain about the shit that actually needs to be balanced in favor of just turning said mechanics off.
>>739977116Unironically, Kerfus would be better if they did the Signal Processing rather than the Hash Codes.
I agree with anon about the hunger mechanic, I told that fat retard Notch it was a waste of time that fucks you over for starting the game and becoming a boring solved chore for the rest of the game and shocker it is
>>740038351>@vargskelethor>@vargskelethor>@vargskelethor>@vargskelethorMan is he gonna be in a shock when Joel memory holes him and VotV. Like, he's not dumb, he knows when enough is enough. When he did the Mario 64 with Chat stream, there were only two messages he didn't read out loud, and both were meant to make him say "trans rights". That's how he deals with shit he dislikes, he's silent about them. Chat messages he dislikes? Dead silence. Creators that overstep? Yeah, he's gonna memory hole Nose and ignore anyone reminding him of his existence in chat.
>>740041184I mean he's played it recently so he's not blacklisted him or the game or anything yet.
>>740041184>that moment of silence during the animal crossing streams were some guy tried to make him say "trans rights"
>>740041361Yet. He keeps pushing the line since he's a permanently online autistic Russian that never goes outside since he's an autistic Russian. Dude doesn't understand social cues and has a serious parasocial relationship going on. Only a matter of time.>>740041482Yeah, another good moment of Joey knowing when to draw the line. There was one time where he got a little chuddy talking about the Swedish immigrant situation that was generally milquetoast but would be absolutely haram today. He's a smart guy under all the peepeepoopoo jokes.
>>739959990I always turn off food exhaustion or whatever it's called. Starving to death surrounded by food because "nuh uh I had a hamburger YESTERDAY!" is completely retarded
>>739959990Did the dev ever take any time away from adding another 50-step easter egg to instead optimize the game or does it still run like dogshit?
>>740041482Vinny did most of his stream advertising here when he started, so Joel is one of us
>>740039602I feel that. If any game has something on by default then its the dev's intended way of playing and disabling any option just feels like a huge copout>>740042050Still runs pretty bad cause everyday seems to constantly spam fog or rain at you
>>740042069>Vinny did most of his stream advertising here when he started, so Joel is one of usIt's been many many years since joel was showing bible black clips on stream and vinny was saying 'nigger'.
>>740038351The absolute crashout during that when he said the atmosphere and other elements where fun was crazy.>>740042957Ah the good old days. Wish some clips got preserved. He's done a good job not capitulating too much at least. Though both him and joel are long due for a chat clean out.
>>739971561>Kerfus has no hands.
>>740043224>The absolute crashout during that when he said the atmosphere and other elements where fun was crazy.I wish it WAS closer to signal simulator. It started with so much promise but the grays he added are so far from the idea of the mysterious spooky gray alien that it took literally all the wind out of my sails for the game. Some of the other creatures are cool but it's mostly the mystery ones like the eyes in the black fog and shit.
>>739959990>clean up garbage for 10 hours>randomly get raped by aliensAwesome.
>>739980960>It also doesn't help that when he does add new content, a lot of the time it's some hyper specific random bullshit you'd only ever know about from a guide or walk through rather than stumbling on yourself.More or less the biggest problem at a core level.>>740042957Wish I could find the clip where he's playing the tony hawk remakes and has to stop himself from saying it. He simply can't escape his dna.
>>740044984>Wish I could find the clip where he's playing the tony hawk remakes and has to stop himself from saying it.>OOHHH YOU FUCKIN' NNNNnnnnnnnnhhh
Dev really needs to add more signals. Like actual space recordings, maybe some earth broadcasts, etc. Signal Simulator did this and it was better for it.
>>740046936Seriously. Too many damn boring planets. Especially the ones from our own solar system. Do you know how many times ive gotten our own damn sun? Its not interesting or creepy. Its especially bad when you get the same few planets over and over and over again. I think the randomizer was broken last time i played
>>739959990Not to mention the castration-cult pandering...
>>740046936I think Sonifications and number stations would be cool.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxa_dcq5IQghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=buCP1UtT9I0
>>739987862Truth nuclear bomb. He's already richer than the royalty in his slavic motherland.
>>739960235This is a tranny grifter game, it'll eternally be on early access until the dev kills xherself and another group of trannies take over
I found the game boring and the mechanics obtuse.
>>739960235Two more weeks.
Cute Satellite You see it too, don't you?
>>740049474Looks like this kind of anime face to me.
>>740049474this is not a satellite
>>740049474>QT with big dish hatMan, if /v/ still had Drawfags.
>>740029347who needs yet another signal simulator retard
>>740050368I do faggot. There's two. One is dead and basically half-finished, and the other is bloated with literal and figurative faggotry.
>>740050323they're around in hiding, these threads had at least three one of them works on the game now
>>740050435> One is dead and basically half-finishedguess why> and the otherwhat about the rest
>>740050645Go on then. List them.
>>740050750no, you do
>>740051191Okay, here is a full comprehensive list of signal simulators:1. Signal Simulator.2. Voices of the VoidThat's it.>B-b-buh I said there are others!Then post them. Prove me wrong.
>>740006172lol
I have to say it, Patreon needs to do something about creators who decide that they don't want to finish their project, for theses kind of people, Patreon should work like kickstarter
>>740006172>The moment he goes full retard and he gets a full-blown fetish scene live on stream, he's memory holing the existence of this "game" and with it all of Dr. Nose's relevance will fade away.Hasn't that alredy happened?
>>740051682It is explicitly not kickstarter which is why it exists. They're donations to the person for existing, not an investment with an obligatory return.Patreon making automatic monthly subscriptions the only option should tell you their opinion on forever projects that make them endless money.
>>740051876YES that's the problem, it is morally wrong, why wasn't anyone pointed out how that's a issue? We literally have notorious cases like yandev, but people seen to give Patreon a pass for some reason, even though they are partially to blame
>>740052059Why the fuck should Patreon actively force people to stop paying? Do you need your hand held to wipe your own ass, too?
>>740051351have you tried to search for them retard
>>740052175So you made it up. Got it. Enjoy your last (you).
>>740052112Is not about forcing people dumbass, is about punishing this kinda of behavior, I don't care if you spend one million dollars on summertime saga Patreon, but nuking accounts that rely on people like that will mean we will stop seeing shit like that
i dont play indie shit but>what devs think hunger, thirst, etc meters meanoh man im hungry i better hunt for food which willl make me feel immersed and have emergent gameplay>what it actually meansoh wait i have to stop what im doing and go pixel hunting for items for an hour before i can continue the actual game
>>740052217no I just wanted to hear from you "yes, I did my research and there are no other signal simulator games"
