That bear trap looks decidedly unpleasant.It's just smiling at you, harmlessly inviting you to pry open those metal jaws.
*snippity-do*... There's a difference between Braton mkI and just straight up Braton? Boy, that's news to me. On the upside, I just managed to start crafting a Bo, so that'll be a little thematically amusing with excalibur
Also if I may make a suggestion, look into replacing your braton-MK1 with a normal braton ASAP. It's a lot better and a well modded braton can easily make it to the end game, moreso now that armor has been nerfed. To boot you can just buy it with credits, you don't need to build it. One of the few weapons you can do that with.
. I also have Rhino chassis blueprints, so that'll probably be my next project.Dead space 3 begs to differ on the latter of those statements.I have a horrible feeling that this is going to end up going the way of SWTOR - essentially a single-player IP that has been shoe-horned into an MMO whilst managing to lose most of the character that made it an engaging single-player game.
Things like TES should have stayed as they are. There are very few satisfying single-player experiences left that don't then tack on, or attempt to create, some kind of multi-player mode where you have to interact with imbeciles.
Single player experiences can't charge a monthly fee, or more common these days can't have a cash shop to sell hats.
The hat idea is a good idea, yeah. MAybe it could generate automatically based on their jobs?I was thinking more like the uniforms in DF, myself. Like, define the fishermen to have a straw hat or something, and then all your fishermen will put on that type of hat. Maybe the highest enabled skill determines what hat they wear.
Eg lumberjacks have a cap. Hunters have a feather.
People with both lumberjacking and hunting enabled have a feathered cap.
Would that work?
I'd also be interested.Aw, you beat me to it. I remembered watching that video a while ago today at school (why, I'll never know). If I was truly more interested in metal working than I am, I would try to make one. Seeing other people's stuff is the next best thing.
Also, this isn't quite the same, but it might interest you all the same, Pufferfish. A guy makes a small forge out of a soup can, some plaster-stuff and a blowtorch, and uses that to make a knife. I'd liek to try something like that myself.

An Abomination monster is potentially planned actually (although that's already what the Jabberwock is).Yes, I can see it now. A jabberwock made of Jabberwocks.
