2021 Roadmap Character Refresh Discussion

$
0
0

When the 2021 Roadmap came out, it indroduced a lot of things, and a couple things that caught my eye were, A: The new DLC character coming this year, but that's a whole new can of worms. and B: The 3 character refreshes. And thats where I'm getting at, since IDK when the next thing will happen, I'm opening up this discussion: Who do you think will be reworked first, why, and what are some things you'd want to see in said rework?

You can go leave comments now, but I am super happy that one of my topics reached 2 pages, I know this isn't like Youtube where that earns me money, but it's nice to know that people are finding my topics.

Character Commentary Appreciation [DST]

$
0
0

So, I, as a newer player (I only have been playing DST for a few months now), main Winona, and I just have to say that I love her in-game quotes. Whenever I play, I literally go out of my way in some of my worlds just to examine something to see what her comment on it will be. I just highly appreciate how her character shines through her words (and another plus is the fact that some hint at possible lore, which I'm assuming most people know already).

Recently, I have begun to explore some more characters as well (Wilson and WX-78), and I find Wilson's quotes (though quite a bit of it is simply saying what the item does, from what I've seen) to be adorable, and WX-78's quips are just downright hilarious to me. I'm planning on trying out Walter and Wigfrid soon, too.

I'm just going to share a few quotes that I can remember off the top of my head, and I encourage you guys to do the same! I don't think I have explored enough of this community to know exactly how much people have really stopped to appreciate the writing the developers have not only put into the characters' stories, but the writing simply put into developing their personalities too. 

Winona:

  • any of the pun quotes 
  • (boulder) "Mhm, yep. That's a rock."
  • (some tree, can't remember which one) "Yep. Definitely a tree."
  • (red cap) "Let Max try it first."
  • (hot dragon chili salad) "Can't believe Warly's got me eatin' salads."
  • (carrying a marble sculpture... sometimes) "Like eggs in coffee!"

Wilson:

  • any of the pun quotes
  • (redbird in inventory) "He likes my pocket."
  • (closed eyebone, meaning Chester's dead) "It went to sleep."
  • (Woby) "It's a scientific fact that petting a good dog will improve your day.
  • (evergreen) "It's all piney."
  • (rose) "To match my rosy cheeks."

WX-78

  • (talking to the plants) "I'M NOT TALKING TO YOU." "THIS IS ME NOT TALKING TO YOU."
  • (I think a feather...?) "WHY IS THE FEATHER SO APPEALING? EXPLAIN NOW, FLESHLINGS."
  • (science machine) "MOTHER?"
  • (burnt crockpot) "POT MALFUNCTIONING."
  • (something burning, can't remember what) "IT'S BURNING. OH WELL."
  • (rabbit earmuffs) "I WILL UTILIZE THEIR FURRINESS."

All in all, appreciation for the characters' quotes (Wes may not have quotes, but he still has his pantomimes! ^v^)

On topic "Tips on how to be Courteous to Fellow Players"

Hello fellow Forum Members! Those of you who've been around for a while probably remember this topic made by @MenaAthena:

It was pinned for quite a long time, however, it has been removed some time ago, I guess in the last year at some point.

I really liked the tips Mena gave, they can be the backbone of a healthy and friendly community. I (still) play quite often on public survival servers with random players of every skill level and these tips are still very actual. "Don't ask where the Base is Right After Joining" (a classic, heh :D), "Don't Pick Everything", "Don't Enter in Winter or Summer" or "If you don't want Strangers, set a Password" are some of the most important and relevant ones and my favourites (in fact, there's been a rant on the latter topic on steam lately (again)).

Does anyone know why this topic got un-pinned? Maybe because it got archived? I think it is still worthy of being on the top of the general forums, so that new players can find it as well. Could we get it back in some way?

Why Wagstaff will never be added to DST

$
0

Wagstaff is a fan fav character, I like him too, I love the detail in how his voice and appearance get more distorted as he loses health, his nearsightedness flaw is genius, and I love the Thumper, Telebrella and Telepad. There's one thing though I don't like about wagstaff though. He can't be added to DST. Let me explain.

Wagstaff's main perks are his engineering tab, the electrical doodad, and being able to spot hidden dangers. "This would make a great character though, why can't he be added?" said every fan ever. Well. simply put, all his features have been given to other people. The electrical doodad is not Wagstaff exclusive anymore, his ability to spot hidden dangers was given to wurt, a similar engineering tab has already been given to Winona, and his telebrella and telepad have already sorta been implemented poorly with the Lazy deserter and Desert stones. Adding wagstaff is completely redundant as he's just a package of already implemented features. The only features of his that haven't been implemented in some way is the thumper, and his glasses types. And the glasses really only benefit him, and the thumper kinda undermines shadow loggers/mners/shovelers. Wagstaff would serve no gameplay value being added, the only value I can see being added from wagstaff showing up is lore. Because they'd have to change him much more drastically than other characters to put him in. Klei removed Warbucks because he wasn't fun to play, (That and Idt you can get oincs in SW) and Wagstaff is basically a mix of all these features of different characters/items. While I know fans would love him implemented it just isn't worth it.

Introducing, Klei Rewards

We are introducing a system that will allow players to collect "points" on their accounts by doing various things like subscribing to our Youtube or following us on Twitter and then use those points to get items. Currently we will be using this to distribute our out of cycle Twitch items rather than selling them as we had previously suggested. This allows players to get what they missed before or just get them without going through Twitch.

The first version of this can be found on our accounts page here: https://accounts.klei.com/account/rewards

In the future we will update the rewards program with new ways to earn more points and pick up cool rewards they may have missed, or even possibly entirely new stuff. Let us know what you think!

 

[Poll] On Public Server Takeovers

$
0
0

So I've seen this topic argued hotly throughout threads on the forums:

Spoiler

these threads specifically:

 

and decided to make a poll about it.

To clarify, public server takeovers are when a group of players take control of a Klei Official Dedicated Public Server (e.g. Clayfish was here!), implementing some, if not all, of these methods to retain control over the server:

 - spawn trapping server spawn with structures or mobs

 - applying scripts to check if someone so much as equips a torch to prevent griefing

 - setting up a system for a player to AFK indefinitely in order to prolong the server

 - kicking people deemed threats to the server's prolonged existence

 - ensuring that a majority of players present in the server vote together to win rollback and world regen votes

Recently, devs implemented Griefer Spawn protection, which may or may not have helped in this matter. But as always I'd like to see the numbers speak for themselves.

As always, vote freely and discuss in the comments!

Hello, everyone!

So here is a collection of the polls I have taken over the course of the previous year until now and further beyond. I am leaving the links here such that information on said polls may be used in the future, as I feel that said information may be of great use, being that it was a gauge of its' respondents' choices at the time.

DISCLAIMER: Do note, however, that said information may be outdated, the sample sizes may be too low to make accurate judgments, and new trends may have arisen as of late. If the lattermost option is in occurrence, do feel free to PM me a request for polls. While said information may be useful to gauge community response, that does not mean it is not subject to change/conclusive.

Getting a new device is not my case. My world gets laggier and laggier everyday due to rots and seeds and other trash around the world. I could use a few good launch options like I do in other games. If you know any other performance boost techniques that would also be useful.

A thread like this existed before but I'm afraid it fell deep into the archive, so here is a new one. You can post funny, odd and terrible pictures that you made while playing DST.

 

Here are some from my collection:

Love this one because it looks like as if the third bunny from the right (not counting the bunny behind the hut) is throwing the small bunny.

My dear Wolfgang managed to trap himself while being sane and of course I mocked him by taking a screenshot and weeks later finding myself trapped in this too while being sane.

"Islands" setting?

I have the most fun with the RoT ocean when I have a few mods on, one of which is the mod that splits up the current landmass into a bunch of different islands to sail between ! How would you feel about such a setting ??

I haven't seen anyone talk about this yet :v

I think now it's safe to say that the White power drawn in the mural is from the moon... celestial? :V

the only eye we have seen before is the Moon during the Moon event

while thinking about that, I came up with a theory

What if the shadow eye from the Gateway is the same eye from the moon, but during solar eclipse, aka Aporkalypse? 

 

How was your first time playing DS/T?

As the title says, I wanna read stories about everyone's experiences when they first got the game, be it DS or DST. I'll also share mine.

I first found the game on the Chrome Store. Of course, that version of DS was just a free trial that you can only play for 1 in-game day.
First day. I walked around, not knowing what to do. Grass? Twigs? Mushrooms? Sure, I'll just pick anything that will satisfy my hunger. I walked and walked, the world looked so peaceful. I made campfires, cooked some food, picked flowers... then dusk falls.

I see a tiny down arrow on my sanity meter. "What's that supposed to do with my survival?" I thought. I then proceeded to do everything I did earlier: Find food, and explore around thinking there were no dangers, and my only objective was one thing: Don't Starve.

Night falls. I didn't make a torch or any light source, I thought I'd be fine during the night. Just then, a loud wooooosh came by! What was that?! It took 67% of my healthbar, but since I was too young to estimate whether that's half or not, I thought I could take another hit. Or could I?... That wind sound rang through my ears again, and... there it is. The sun rises, then there's just a dead man, lying dead on the ground. Classic death from the grue right there.

Next attempt, short version: I ate green caps. GREEN CAPS. Of course I still thought the "brain icon" does nothing. But just when the insanity ambience kicked in, I started to think that was a bad idea. There's no more to my second survival attempt though, as I could only play for one in-game day.

That's my first 2 worlds on the free version.

Also, here's the proof that the Chrome version existed:

Doesn't salt form on the world used before the salt update?

$
0
0

First of all, I'm using a translator, so it might be awkward.

 

I found a world that I used a long time ago while playing Beta this time ago.

So I'm playing the map. and I was going to make a box of salt.

But when I got half the map of the ocean, I felt strange.

I don't see any salt.

So I used the c_gonext"saltrock" command.

There was no reaction at all.

 

I assumed it was because this map was created before the salt update.

To do so, seaweed was created.

I understand that they were created after the salt update.

Doesn't salt update update content to old world unlike seaweed update?

 

Can we resolve this situation?

I could spawn them, but...

They are artificially created, so they will look very unnatural.

 

It's been 3,000 days in the world.

I don't want to create a new world.

 

dsadsa22.png

 

 

 

 

I'm sorry. The command was wrong.

It wasn't "saltrock" it was "saltstack" ......

Who composed the DST character animation musical scores?

$
0
0

I know that Vince de Vera and Jason Garner composed the soundtrack for Don’t Starve (and thus extends to DST, I presume).

But what about the musical scores in Klei’s animations? Who are the composers for those? I looked at the DS wiki page where some of the tracks are listed, but there is no mention of any other composers besides the two Don’t Starve soundtrack composers. Did those two also compose the character animations’ scores as well, or no?

If not, I want to at least know who composed Warly’s score “Taste of Home,” it’s my favorite one. And because of that, I want to use it for a school project, and I want to be able to give credit to the artist to whom the piece belongs. :wilson_dorky:
