KickStarter ATOM RPG - Wasteland Soviet style! - now with Dead City update

[Fenix]

With partners it's a cakewalk, since dumping end gives you a lot of luck and dex and other stuf

Yeah, party is inevitable for me, cause my weight capacity is like... ahahah, ahahah - this much.
So I think woman @ has generally more sexual scenes, but it's generally the same.
I might want to fight actually alone or with dog, cause I want to drag human NPC for RPG content.

Can you say what weapon is more deadly, I think automatic rigth?
Given that I took Cursed Sniper, it seems it's not reasonable to go automatics way?


Alos, I'm now at Factory and surprised how many things put in dialogues.
Dialogue with Shishkar is amazing, he could even drop the key lol.
On the other hand, usage of words is often off - those "переведём тему" are a bit jarring.
It's ether author didn't read books or not inside a Russian language enviroment.
But text has individuality - that's good thing.

Also bug - Pedagogue still called my @ by his name even when I told him different name.

Perk system is... unflexible, to say the least...
You need to change it. Like, at first I thought that price was going up for every TREE from center, and that was already ух-ох, but that turned out new tree cost not start from 1, it's 4-5 after you filled previous tree.

 

[Fenix]

Atomboy also quick idea - I don't know anything about Trudograd roleplay system, but you could sorta fix ATOM systme with this - let new tree from center cost start from 1, maybe 2.
So for example, after you open/learned for example tree with automatics, your next perk won't cost you 5 points - only 1 or 2.
IF it would be 1 point for new tree, then you could get another 4, maybe 5 perks before you do eveyrthing.
Maybe it's too op. So probbaly cost that start from 2 is more reasonable.

Fenix you should take a look at TG's perk tree, because this is p. useless feedback imo. Obviously the old tree suck. Last time I checked,the new one was a mess as well but like to the opposite direction (too many points, you could buy all the good stuff and ignore the useleess shit) but they were changing things left and right even then so I need to take another look.

 

[Fenix]

I don't need to, what I propose is a very qick fix without changing anything in interface, just changing internal values.
So every new tree will cost +1 - first is 1+2+3+4+5, second is 2+3+4+5, third is 3+4+5 and so on.

 

[jackofshadows]

Nah, that would be too op. The game's difficulty is fine with this clunky tree and the enemies don't actually have perks, unlike in TG which is a huge mechanical difference, obviously.

 

[Fenix]

Well, yeah, I guess game was balanced with those 5-6 perks available.

Yes! No w if you;re going with a cursed sniper yu'll get more benefits with rifles and shotguns, but actually automatics too since they do single aimed shots as well, and a crit is a crit with any weapon. Which weapon type is the best in the game is really dependable, for me its melee, second best being automatics and thir beig shield plus pistol or shield plus smg or shield plus melee. We do read books! Some characters speak like retards just because they are meant to be безграмотный скот! Well sometimews we fuck up too though not gonna lie also we pretty much went the way you stated in Trudograd now you have all the perks you want and evey new tree's cost isn't dependble on previous tree purchases. we're actually changing it now to make it less friendly and open bercause it was OP

Exactly! We made it pretty Op We mess with the tree constantly, hopefully gonna be balanced when we release that game.

 

[Feyd Rautha]

Atomboy any chance of implementing the ability tree from Trudograd at some point into the first game?

This idea is always floating out there. We will probably try to make Trudograd's tree an optional feature in some kind of a director's cut anniversary edition of the game we'll charge 30 food cubes for in 2025 or something.

This is what I want! I want a director's cut of ATOM with all the improvements of Trudograd. Maybe a karma-system thrown in as well? That would make ATOM perfect.

 

[Fenix]

Yeah. I want to go with automatics, cause it looks it could deliver destruction faster, which is what I need for my flimsy 1 End comrade.

 

[jackofshadows]

You can raise both, actually if your INT is high enough (8+ I'd say).

 

[Fenix]

My build is simply this 1/2/10/10/10/10/1.

Hey Atomboy how about a Switch port? Seems porting it would not be that difficult given most Unity games run pretty well on Switch and would open up a whole stream of revenue and gamers

 

[e-mailio estevez]

There is a Switch port. It's not half bad outside of loading times.

My bad just found it, there are some comments about the menus and the font size especially for handheld mode have there been any updates to help address that?

 

[Sykar]

Has anyone ever tried the game with the Neutron mod that does some substantial changes to the perk system and some nice QoL changes? Does it preserve the general game play and character building or does it improve or worsen it?

Trudograd when

 

[Sykar]

Anyone else having problems with todays update? It is a meager 340 MB patch which Steam DLed swiftly but the installation takes AGES atm.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

 

[Sykar]

No paused and doing another update, CrossCode also got an Update probably for the new DLC. Maybe that will help.
Edit: CrossCode was done before I finished the post. Well only 45 MB patch there. Atom is now faster, instead of days "only" 10 minutes +/- which is still surprisingly long compared to when I DLed and installed SWTOR 45 GB in about an hour.

 

[urmom]

This was a great game. Liked it 10x more than Wasteland 2. Can't wait for Trudogard to get done.

 

[kreight]

I wonder why you yankees enjoy this game so much if you don't get all the soviet stuff, references and humor.

 

[ERYFKRAD]

It's a good game.

Foreigners get a Fallout clone in a quirky setting, Russians get a Fallout clone packed with cringy jokes.

 

[rusty_shackleford]

Atom RPG doesn't have full party control, right? How come nobody complains about it?

 

[urmom]

Because it's fine? You can tell party members mid-battle to change/holster weapons, change aggressiveness, etc. You do have some control.
