Author Topic: Space Engineers (Bug Fixing Period)  (Read 184703 times)

Just bought this and started downloading random things from the workshop to get an idea what you can do, it's amazing!

I still have no idea what the heck I'm supposed to do in this game

I thought it would've been simpler but

Man, Starmade seems to much more intuitive than SE.

Yeee, it's easier to pick up on, but in Space Engineers, you can make FUNCTIONING MECHS, DAMN IT.

  • Starmade tutorial isn't intuitive at all
  • Space engineers has much better graphics
  • Much better physics
  • Amazing destruction physics
  • GIANT ROBOTS THAT ACTUALLY WORK
  • Did I mention the physics engine yet?
  • Let's not forget modding!
  • Fancy mechanical things that actually work!!
  • physics!!

These are the only three things that actually matter in the differences between Starmade and Space Engineers.

Besides, Space Engineers is closer to being done than Star Made anyway, so it's not like there isn't room to grow.

Also, the Starmade tutorial doesn't need to be intuitive because the game itself is intuitive and doesn't require you to be a god-damn engineer right off the bat.

You forgot the main one:

  • Space engineers has much better graphics

i'm here because of physics and survival sandbox

Those points were why I bought the game, so go away.

And yes, graphics do matter. I don't like playing ugly games. Would also be a waste of my graphics card.

blockland has some damn good grafux wouldn't you agree?

They are certainly better than before shaders, yes. And I never said that I played blockland all the time.

Oh you didn't have to say it; I know that isn't true.

But I don't think I've ever seen this in Blockland.

go visit ARES or some of the old space clans that made things that looked 10x cooler

k but that wasn't the point

a) the modding is half-assed. You can't even model a blast door that opens fully because doors are hard loving coded. the furthest degree of modding is adding new blocks to the game. If thats what you consider "modding" starmade has had modding support for the past year.
b) as far as "muh grafix" goes it really depends on what youre looking for in a game. Starmade is bright and colorful; SE tends to have darker and more washed out colors. I'm not even going into what you think is "detail". Space Engineers is loving duplo to skubmades lego
c) you have me at the physics engine; for now.
d) i have yet to see a functional mech that worked practically ingame. mechs built in skubmade using turret blocks function almost as efficiently as the ones i've seen. Granted that rotors are loving awesome and ive done some cool stuff with em ingame
e) repeating yourself because youve run out of points of contention does both arguments a disservice.


Edit: good job dipstuff, you missed the most GLARING difference between the two: space engineers has an actual survival mode. In fact its probably what will be the main thing setting the two games apart as time goes on.
