Mods:
Delete storyline and restore early access progressions
Any biome mods
And mechs

Easy

install frackin' universe
make planets and universes more like Terraria's world select, where character and space ship is selected independently of the universe
make planet generation less linear, because you wind up simply moving from one type of planet to the next with almost nothing of value left after you move on

Unique terrain gen for each planet
All planets are just palette swaps of each other with different block sets

Remove shit story,bring back old combat music,race traits,set bonuses etc

Basically go back to beta

FU is shit for autists, it adds more of the same thing, not complexity

Install Sexbound and appropriate mods
Fuck everything you can

A big improvement would ditch the stupid melee shit and go all guns galore. Seriously it's futuristic and people are using fucking swords and spears, where's all the unique guns like borderlands with legendary weapons of each gun? Could have projectile and energy weapons with differing traits, and a randomizer generation for a whole line of guns would have been so much better than retarded reject pokemon creatures or planet with blue dirt.

Tried installing Fracking universe. Still boring as hell. I find myself coming back to Terraria more which just feels more polished and has better design. I really wanted to like Starbound though.

Have I Was The Sun on loop for the entire game

Alternatively, beat Curtis until he makes more songs like I Was The Sun

What the fuck is I was the Sun?

Erase it from everyone's memories and have some guy punch Tiy in the balls every sunday.

install terraria?

I'm bored of Terraria, I need something new.

Fracking universe ok. But recomend me some compatible porn mods.

remove shit linear content and make it so you can't turn down music volume

I backed it Yea Forums. It still hurts.

Played through Thorium. Refuse Calamity because it's so autistic and made by a furfag. I'm just too burned out my dude.

Can't help then, terraria is the only one I liked from this genre.

Still disappointed that you can't manually draw and customize a novakid's face. When they got announced i thought that would be a really cool feature, but they probably didn't want people drawing swastikas and dicks on their novakids. Still though, the pixelart would have been great. Imagine a novakid with a mario sprite on his face.

That's because Terraria is the ONLY good one of it's genre. Starbound and Edge of Space sucked major shit and nobody funded Planet Centauri that actually had potential because everyone was fed up from the previous two shitty games.

Played 1000+ hours of terraria and was really looking for something fresh and new in starbound. It kept me entertained for a while but then i gave up on it. I guess what i liked about terraria is that you weren't scurrying all over the place and you just had this one nice little world to terraform. also RIP otherworld

1. Every remotely temperate planet should have a ton of biodiversity, an even more dense amount of biomes and civilizations* than a Small Terraria world. This extreme density alone will make traveling to any particular planet and exploring it far more interesting.
1a. Said civilizations should have a chance for peaceful/hostile relations with occasional NPC fights at the border of their territories.
2. Expand upon the galactic travel interface, make solar system travel a true free-movement top down shmup the likes of Ur-quan Masters (fuck that space robot, make it your ship flying around)
3. condense the absurd amount of redundant material types into a few universal blocks that you can alter/place as you please (instead of having fifty different colors of dirt taking up an inventory slot each), also increase inventory caps to 65000 or at least 9999 instead of 999. Just to cut down on bloat.
4. Make the main plot unnecessary for ship/tech advancement, put in place multiple means to upgrade
5. Each gun should have its own energy bar rather than pull from the universal source, promoting swapping between multiple arms while others recharge
6. Expand melee weapon attacks, give each of them multiple special attacks through a combo system (not just the sword) by using tap/hold combo routes, no need for a second click as with two handed weapons

starbound is one of the easiest modded games in existence, it was built around this fact
just make your own assets

Frackin Universe is just a grindfest mod. Why is it even so popular? The only nice thing about it is a couple of the missions and furniture, but that's about it.

People mistake bloat with quality

just uninstall it

it gives you things to work towards and a lot more variety of things, which the base game severely lacks
And when you ARE given something to work towards in the campaign, it's never a case of you really going out of your way to get it, it's you moving on to the next planet and it already being there because that's how the game shepherds you

it definitely doesn't fix the game but it makes the game feel more full of optional shit to do and not just a leisurely stroll through weapon/armor tiers until nothing matters

But then I'd have nothing ti play?

no it doesnt

hardcore mode runs are fun
You can't really die though if you pay attention
now terraria, that shit is impossible with 1 life

Isn't the world record speedrun for expert mode a hardcore run

Yeah... No!
Like I said, it's a grindfest, and you're not even given any clues about what to work forward to, you NEED to always consult the outdated wiki to even know what you're doing.

Yeah but that requires vasts amount of knowledge and skill and autism
in starbound you can do it just fine without having any prior knowledge

more florans

I want a floran to sit on my face

go back in time and convince red to discredit tiy the second he starts riding the "from the creator of terraria" hype for kickstarter money. plagiarizing ff5 sprites and getting kicked off the team isn't creating a game.

Florans are pretty cool.

okay

Do you really need to ask

Can anyone name something positive that came from this game besides Floran?

heh...

If there's a mod to make the Stardust Guardian do punch ghost stuff instead of thunderclaps I'm in.

Hey now, TES porn mods have gotten far thanks to a lot of effort. Just to jack off.
Through dick, unity.

Completely disagree, melee is fun with some movement-based Techs, and I actually really like what they've done with 2h hammers. I would agree with the point, if you are making it, that more enemies should have guns though. Absolutely.

1. Bring back momentum conservation from the dash Tech(s)
2. Add a Creative Mode and/or some way to make "dungeons" you can enter from the overworld. I would love to make platforming challenges and race with friends on multiplayer servers.
3. Add an extra pixel to humans' freaky fucking beady eyes. Two pixels tall and they're instantly cuter. Maybe make Hylotl eyes smaller in some way to clutter the whole face less.

starbound isn't that popular on here

Not even for the most popular thing about it?

Obviously not

I'll take into account everything I read in this thread
I'm gonna write a letter to these absolute motherfuckers to tell how shit their game is and what they should do to make it a truly terraria in space

Son...in their eyes the game is completed
they're not gonna work on it anymore

Well that's not quite true. There's that patch they're too lazy to fix and have put on 'hiatus'

give the vore mod official support

Bruh all their focus is on Wargroove. Starbound is wrapped up to them in the unoptimized and shitty state it's in.

Wish I had art skills. Kind of created a main crew in my playthrough based around a Floran, Hylotl and Ningen (the eyes and hair on vanilla humans suck)

Isn't there a mod that gives humans Terraria eyes? It's already a huge improvement.

Why doesn't the space cowgirls get any love?

Wow, sci-fi that's based on things we already know instead of trying its absolute hardest to create something new and unknown and definitely not based on something else. What a shocker.

Cutebound or Ningen mod.

Autism. Go back to whatever animalraping furafinity shit you came from.

There's a difference between using ideas and aspects of things as inspiration and just fucking copying it mate.

yes you should go back furfag

it was pretty popular back when Chucklefish fucked everything up

Hey, at least it was a cheap learning experience. Imagine being a Star Citizen backer instead.

>play on release
>races are all functionally the same
>human art style is fucking trash
tiy’s legacy is terraria’s sprite artist and predictably his game looks like fucking sh*t

Oh man I can't wait for the inevitable bubble of Star Citizen to pop and all those potential backer suicides.

never had that on my end and I usually play with it.
are you playing on a server? sounds like network lag, I can't imagine hit delay being a thing when playing solo

>pretty popular back when
No, not even then. I like starbound but a fact is that it really wasn't that noticeable when it came to the eyes of Yea Forums. Maybe on /vg/ but I don't go on there

It was pretty short-lived on /vg/

every year or so a general pops up for a few days and it's fun

Florans > every other vanilla race.

>lies people tell themselves to pretend like they're not just shitting on something for the sake of shitting on it
Nothing in Starbound is remotely deep enough to be considered outright copying. Nothing about what makes the races distinct matters, it's all aesthetics with no impact. Oooh, here's a castle. Oooh, that's a cowboy. Oooh, there's a jungle tribe. How dare they blatantly copy such rich historical concepts straight out of a textbook.

Back when I gave a shit about this game I so wanted to make this as a modded armor set for my human character. It had such a perfect mix of fear inducing intimidation and almost robotic like professional killer appearance.

Frackin' Universe.

Personal wishlist:
Dynamic wildlife and plants.
Survival-based mechanics for NPCs and the player (food, water, sleep, temperature).

I like how the later tiers give this one big room tall enough to grow a tree. Use a mod to make a certain kind of tree and grow it in that area

link

almost put floran appearance in ass tier but the greenhouse redeems it
which ship?

Hylotl ship has the room tall enough for a tree.

Terraria *is* more polished and has better designed. It's focused on being what it is-- a procedurally-generated 2D dungeon-crawler/bossfighting "RPG". Everything else is just a bonus feature that requires little effort to take advantage of (NPCs are just shops, buildings are easily-thrown-together static lumps of basic materials unless you're really into pixel art, etc.).

Starbound started out as being more about exploration and being a sandbox, but the devs half-assed it (not enough variety in procedurally-generated content, enemies all feel the same, NPCs are still just shops or, at best, short-lived combat helpers) and slapped on a shitty "story" and rigid progression system before calling it a finished game.

Frackin' Universe is there to expand Starbound's basic features enough to make it feel like a decent game and not a relative letdown.

I've lost the link, I suggest checking around previous /vore/ threads though.

just use fu and cheat when you want to

I always mod my ship out with a human or hylotl ship
it's super easy to do, just make a human character and rename the .shipworld file to the name of the .shipworld of your character and presto, new ship

All the races are decent fluff except the bitch-ass, super-vanilla, rainbow-haired humans.
Still, two fluff races do not a good game make.

Because not everyone here collects and shares softcore porn of a mediocre game that dropped out of the shadows right next to Terraria's limelight years ago.

How sad. Having the most powerful military structure and instead they write stupid, unrealistic space opera garbage.

I thought that mod was a mess? I guess I will though if it's been updated

the power creep is all over the place but it's fun

Don't play calamity, it sucks shit with one hit kill bosses and unavoidable attacks.

The main thing bothering me was that no matter what kind of planet you had, they were all the same under the surface.
Make underground biomes dependent on the type of planet and create new planet specific cave biomes to make 50% of the game (which is doing stuff underground) more interesting and varied

For real. You get all you need just by running across the surface of a planet and looting as fast as you can

>Install Frackin Universe
>Make new character
>Do intro quests
>Realize I have to run around and make a bunch of science shit and I have no idea how to do it
>Look up how to do it and it takes forever
Man this isn't what I expected.

Here's how.

1) Add racial diversity. Make the races have more meaning than just "humans with X + Y gimmick." Especially the novakids.

2) Add a reputation system. I want to be a fucking space crusader, and then a space pirate. Instead, I'm forced into this awful story, and people don't immediately love/hate me on the spot based on my actions.

3) More biomes, more bosses. MUCH more bosses. All these weapons and I have nothing to fight with them?

4) Buff the shit out of the matter manipulator. Raise it's limits to like, stupidly fucking high levels, and make the most powerful upgrades reward-only for defeating certain bosses.

5) Start with the FTL drive and everything you need ready. Put the player on some basic quests to explain the game, and let them go hogwild.

6) Remove the stupid fucking intro.

7) Remove the story, or alternatively, give it multiple paths a la New Vegas if you're going to make it end the game when you complete it, or let it drastically affect the post-game.

8) Add weapon customization. With all these shitty randomized weapons, let me scrap them for parts to build my own.

9) Make the cutebound mod standard.

I'd agree if you didn't post the version with the shitty pauldrons

> Make the cutebound mod standard.

You had me until then. I agree SB's artstyle is lacking, but cutebound is barely an improvement, and it leans wayyy to much on anime qt3.14, sometimes even retconning features of the race that make them distinct like the novakid or the avians.

There was this guy who made alternative heads/hairstyles for some of the races that revamp their visual style to be more interesting but also keeps their identity intact. If any aesthetic mods should become standard it's those.

I stopped playing this game a while back, so apologies if this has already been done:

1: Get rid of the story and quests and boss fights.
2: Bring back the ability to kill friendly NPCs without pissing them off
3: Create new stuff to see (new types of planets, new races)

Refocus the game around exploration, looting and building/crafting.

By the time you understand where to get the materials and finally do it, whatever you were trying to craft will probably already be obsolete and worthless. That's FU in a nutshell, complete clusterfuck of a mod.

I'm glad we can all agree this game used to be infinitely more fun in the beta

It's like a German car. So painfully overdesigned that it's actually a detriment.

Yeah, fuck frackin universe and fuck anyone who suggests the mod. All it has is just more feature creep and retarded shit to keep you busy. It's like a fucking skinnerbox. At least Starbound lets you free-roam and do whatever after a while, but in FU it's like I'm always grinding to be able to do something that lets me grind for something else.

I had the most fun with starbound when it first got released in early access.
You just mined, made gear every couple planets, and then hit the end. Reminded me of early minecraft.
Also went on a Yea Forums server and played instruments with people and it was fun.

>tfw you missed the erp scene for this game

I can't imagine it was that great.
Sure glitches would be fun, but a lot of furry stuff and no bug people in the base game.
Really, the only saving grace was flower people and robots. Even then it would be weird to ERP a glitch because they can't emote besides saying their emotion out loud.

Sometimes you just have to rise to the challenge, user.

I was there.
It was an autistic mess full of internet drama, in my experience. Then again, we used Discord, so that was to be expected, looking back on it.

Glitches may look cute but they probably have the creepy voice of a Tactical Droid from Star Wars.
