Final item on terraforming take ages

[spacedrone]

I think i have seen most stuff on the map and build a huge base. All i can do is wait and wait until the last item in the tech tree to unlock to see new content. is this normal?

[Taras]

I think so.

I got past the tree stage to the insect stage. The insect stage (at the terraforming level I am at) seems to be moving extremely slow.

I stopped though because I heard outside of placeholder status, past the tree stage there isn't insects or fish from what I have seen yet in the game. The next stage after insects seems to be fish (what I saw from a german player's game).

However, if those stages do not have insects or fish yet in the actual game. I just plan to wait for awhile to see how this game develops further along.

This game is still in pre-alpha stage?

I bought the game some days ago in Early Access. For me i dont mind to see insects or fish. I just want to use the item to unlock the stuff behind the locked doors. Anyway thx for the feedback.

I suspect that we're missing T5+ machines, and we're not really meant to unlock the insects stage or last tech item with only T4 machines

Devs have said in a few posts that the overall content end at the tree stage. (Though you can progress past.. we'll have to wait for more toys.

The insects stage went pretty slowly for me. I have 20 T3 tree spreaders. 12 T2 Ore Extracters, 32 T4 Heaters, 30 T4 Drills, 24 T2 Nuclear reactors, 2 Fusion reactors, a bunch of lower-tier stuff, and I've launched a bunch of each kind of rocket. I'm at 1.03TTI; Fish is at 0.00% and it's not moving.

I have so much stuff that my frame rate is in the toilet (20's near my base). I'm pretty sure I'm done until there are higher-tear machines to start replacing things.

Instead of one massive base,I have made 3 mid sized ones. Gets a little confusing looking for stuff sometimes but I like building stuff. So for me it works.

Yep. After a major update or two I'll probably play through again. My first base won't be right where I landed (got that message a little late), and I'll definitely spread things out more.
