Planet Crafter....

For a gamer playing 4 MMO's at the moment it's a wonder I have time for any other games. Ok maybe that's an exaggerated stretch. WoW is the real time killer. Star Trek Online on PC and Xbox are a daily and admin each day and Eve Online is not even a character login to claim the 'login' rewards(which is 90% of my 'gameplay' there). Yet time I have and time I've spent on more Planer Crafter. Not much different since the last time I posted. Like I've said before and like Minecraft, the game is just fun (for me) to be in. 

On that score I've been farming the new area for golden larva; Or any larva that's not the standard versions. Of which there has been a steady endless supply. I've deconstructed the blues(and all sub golden) to get more valuable fertilizer and mutagens. With stockpiles of surplus in multiple areas.

Even the Golden Larva have replaced all of my butterfly setups and more. It's funny(not ha-ha) how certain grinds in games are 110% acceptable while even the merest hint of grind in others is a turnoff to gamplay. Perspectives, RnG and luck!

In thinking I've gotten all from the latest patch I thought I'd look up the Steam discussions to see if there was talk of anything I'd missed. There wasn't, but I did spot talk of a strange box.

A 'hidden' storage crate filled with blueprint chips! 

Obviously a developer testing thing. But easily accessible(for now at time of blogging). So of course I went and collected the collectibles I've no purpose for(for now). Mmmmmmmmm chips.

I've also embraced both the T3 extractor and the Auto Crafter. Creating a small ad-hoc Rod creation setup(Iridium, Osmium and Alloy). Making the most of the T3 drill which is now seen as overpowered(in ability) and which will be nerfed in the next patch in the new year.

So progress is progress. Tweaking, storing, resorting and collecting.

I'm looking forward to that next major update in the new year. With luck elements of the next phase are going to be implemented.

Happy Friday!
