Hey, I don't bug the biters unless they bug me. Once they do however, all gloves come off.

How many gloves you wearing?

That depends on the time of the day.

Says the engineer that built a factory up-wind from their nest.

It's not that we don't love peace, we just love industry so much more.

They should add a planet with an alien race that shoots back in the next DLC. So I don't feel so bad dropping bombs on them anymore.

Have you never encountered spitters?

domi@lemmy.secnd.me · 7 pts · 319d

That's weak. I'm thinking more of an alien race with technology that rains artillery fire down on you.

Shooting back still implies you shot first lol

Hey, the factory still must grow.

I still haven't had to kill a biter base!

(I messed up and killed one egg raft; didn't know the carapace shell could give eggs. But just that one!)

You are... somewhat more peaceful than I am in this game 😆

tbh it's a pretty chill way to play. Makes base defense trivial, if a lot more spread out. You can block many things from spawning for very cheap.

Hoo boy. Going exterminating ("hunting") is how I pass þe time when I get bored of building. I don't need to; artillery and laser walls keep þings clear, but ... I guess I'm not þe ambassador to send to þe aliens.
