Can you build on constructed floors yet?

>>332626187
A few things, like furniture and levers, yeah.
>>
>>332626187
I mean just replace the floor with a wall, it's the same difference. And that's the only thing you can't do.

It'd be nice if building on a floor with a wall replaced the floor and granted you the materials back but DF and quality of life are almost always mutually exclusive.

I would love it if Toady would

1. Focus on making the world a threat
2. Focus on making the every day running of a fortress a challenge
3. Fix the fucking lag from having thousands of items and 100 or more dorfs

34.xx was almost perfect with sieges and ambushes but even now with some ground gained back for sieges, it's piss easy to never lose. The only thing that ever goes wrong for me is a werecreature and lazy military planning. Even then I very rarely lose the fortress because of it.

I love how the worlds are 'real' and 'exist' outside of your fort. I really do. But it's come at a cost of difficulty and lag.

And the same thing happened with above ground vegetation variety. The already easy going nature of feeding the fortress became completely trivial. It is almost impossible to run out of food and be in a crisis.

Farming takes almost no time to do and I think that'd be a good area to work on, along with reducing the amount of crops you get per harvest or increasing the amount a dwarf eats.

Overall though, it is a brilliant game but unfortunately isn't a challenging game once you've learned it. The challenge is all centered around learning it. Once you get past the abysmal UI, and you figure out how things work and what to do, then the rest is just easy sailing never lose never feel challenged.

So did anyone else switch sides tonight?

I was betting on P5 this whole time, but the delay last september, coupled with the troubling lack of news, now a full quarter into this year, killed any hype I had. I wasnt initially sold on FFXV but the announcements, the demo, the hype, and the security and comfort of knowing a release date is locked in made me give up on Atlus and Persona 5 tonight. Now I'm sure P5 will be good once it comes out, dont get me wrong, but everything else surrounding it has been really shady and rubbed me the wrong way. But I might wait for a sale or just even pirate P5 now because fuck Atlus for handling their biggest game ever so terribly.

How is Atlus handling their biggest game terribbly?
>>
Bad action RPG versus bad turn-based RPG.

The only difference will be in the story and aesthetic, and I think Persona 5 is a lot more interesting in that department.
>>
>>332622813
I understand why you'd be pissed at Atlus, but I don't understand why you wouldn't be pissed at SE for the very same reason. The thing took fucking ten years to come out. If that's not "handling their biggest game ever so terribly" I don't know what is.

Thread on the WoT EU forum has been further updated, it might be interesting

1/2

"Basics of how the game is rigged and why:
-Everything that should be random (in respectful levels of the tank/spg/td you are playing) - MM, hit chance, pen chance, bounce chance, etc - all these stats are recalculated all the time and then "random" but not so random values are generated to even things out and keep masses of players in check.
-Since there is a lot more bad players, the game system is more friendly to them than to good players and this keeps the player base in check - large and constantly growing
-The system is unfair as the game can nerf you and you can encounter a player who is currently buffed, getting instantly owned by "bad luck" (this is besides MM putting you in retard teams)
-Spawn points are manipulated as well (sometimes in combination with retard teams generation resulting in infamous lemming trains with blind and deft people who don't react to map blinks and chat)
-Gold ammo doesn't help if you have been nerfed by the game, you won't penetrate more - since players do not realize this it will also often inspire them to buy gold ammo since they constantly fail to pen and try to compensate
-Game is also rigged in a way that it forces you to play and grind different tanks by giving you losing streaks and nerfing tanks that you play a lot - more money to WG
-The game looks and sounds great, but it is almost like you have minimum effect on what will happen in game with MM and stats being nerfed/buffed according to previous games stats - it is like the game plays you instead of you playing the game
-There is an advanced closed-source and patented algorithm under the hood taking care of this
>>
>>332622819

2/2

-Many good and long-term players are aware of these game mechanics and play according to them resulting in higher win ratio and better stats but they won't reveal their secret to success
-These players adapt to game mechanics by keeping a close eye on various stats and numbers; Things such as number of games played on each tank, win/lose streaks, XVM and data from other 3rd party statistics websites; By avoiding nerfed tanks when they notice the game has nerfed them (sometimes not playing them for months), playing buffed tanks only, playing specific platoon setups with other aware players, etc.

For those who have a lot of experience in gaming this should not be surprising at all, as many people will do anything it takes to show they are better than the rest, even if it is "just a game". I remember in WoW people used to abuse PvP arena system by precisely calculating queue times with two arena teams and trading victories (used to be called wintrading) before Blizz made huge efforts to prevent it."

So this launches in the US tomorrow (3/31/2016) and preregistering is available until 1:00 am, 2 hours and 3 minutes. Assuming that's when it releases, how about a Miitomo thread?
