V 0.4.014 - Hotfix (25 May 2022)
Pulsar Quartz crafting is back
We heard the concerns of the community, and added back pulsar quartz crafting
Hello terraformers!
Since the “Caves & Crater” update, we read your concerns and valid criticisms about our decision to remove pulsar quartz crafting
. As explained, we wanted to create an incentive to explore the planet. But the change was indeed too harsh. This is getting in the way of players who want to create a lot of power hungry machines and use the new teleporters intensively.
One other concern was that we didn’t want to make teleporters too powerful, allowing the players to come back to base easily from anywhere in the world, thus removing completely the sense of danger, and possibly the potential need of a future vehicule.
So we have decided to reintroduce the ability of crafting pulsar quartz, but later on in the tech tree at 175 Giga Terraformation Index.
Keep in mind that, as Planet Crafter is in Early Access, there’s a chance of future changes again. As we'll continue to balance the game, new and old features will possibly evolve. There’s a high chance that the teleporters will be tweaked in the future especially. But we'll always take players voices into account.
Thanks to everyone who expressed their constructive opinions on the subject.
We hope you’ll all find this change profitable for the game.
This should be the last big modification for the “Caves & Crater” update.
We are now eager to work on the next update, as we still have a lot of ideas and new surprises for you down the road! Our goal is to deliver the next update to you around the end of July 2022.
Thanks again for all of your support since the launch, we are making our best to give everyone a great gaming experience!
See you soon, and good terraforming!
