TBT Starbound

[Prof Gallows]

Making an official stuck thread for Starbound to encourage people to play and join the group on Steam.


This thread is the place you want to come and talk about the game, post screenshots, videos, etc about Starbound.

The group on Steam is open to the public so you can join it whenever you want. It's called The Bell Tree Starbound.



To start thing off with this thread, here is the base that Andy and I have been working on.

Sheeeeeeeeeet

Do servers get reset when resets happen?

 

[Prof Gallows]

The last wipe that happened was a universe wipe, so it reset everything other than the characters themselves.

Tiy has said the next update will include a way to prevent as many wipes for future updates, but it's beta so anything is bound to happen.

 

[oath2order]

Are the servers always online?

 

[Prof Gallows]

The dedicated servers are probably online most of the time.


Sadly I don't know anyone who could/would host a server for TBT. Right now people will probably have to decide on a dedicated server or host their own so they and their friends can play.

How exactly would we go about doing a dedicated server?

Starbound has dedicated servers for people to use. There are also a lot of other servers people host on Reddit and other places, but I'm not really counting on any of those being dedicated just to TBT. For that you'd have to find someone on here willing to host, and I dunno how likely that is.

Is it only on Steam? It looks interesting and my friend keeps talking about it.

Yes. I sense a degree of apprehension towards Steam there.

 

[SockHead]

Will try it out around Christmas time

 

[Prof Gallows]

[oath2order]

[Alienfish]

When I get Steam money on my birthday, I might buy it. Seems like a fun game.

Reminds me of the Accelerator in Metroid Fusion xD

The way multiplayer servers are still though, if you did that on a server you'd probably crash it. Hard. xD

Starbound is such a fun and addicting game, my friends and I played for a little while. I hit this wall where I felt like there wasnt any more content. This was around when the game was first released. Since the game I think deleted all the characters, and I'm just waiting a while for a couple more updates for the game to REALLY start appealing to me again.

Can any one vouch? How much more fun is it now compared to how it was when it first came out?

 

[Nerd House]

Started playing again, brand new character. Feels good!

 

[Dr J]

I'm waiting for the progressive update to come out before I start playing again.. there's just nothing to really work for in the game right now.

 

[IncendiaryPyro]

Same thing with Dr J. Waiting for a progression update before I start playing again.
On a related note, I adore the soundtrack greatly. It's definitely one of my favorites.

Got the game a week or two ago and beat the last boss recently, so I'm also waiting for an update 'cause I can't think of any more things to do. It's definitely a fun game though, I love these sandbox/survival games.
