Are we able to use the physical dirt physics still?

The sphere dirt chunks?

[Zwembad]

Are you on the open beta version of the game? If so, the dirt chunks are still there but they are now more invisible than before, leaving only a falling dirt texture and the chunks are also more free-flowing.

IMHO The old dirt system was way better looking. I stopped playing beta bexause of the new dirt system. It looks like an old clay figure stop motion moive, it is horribe, the devs should really concider scrapping it or at least leave the option to use the old system.

That would be nice to have an option, then those who want the new dirt get it, and those who want the old dirt (my preference) would get that too.

In this week's Friday newsletter the dev team mentioned the following: "This week we have been working on a lot of small issues and fixing a few key dirt issues, but this update still needs more tweaking and testing before we push it to beta"

Just be patient, the way dirt handles will far exceed the current and old dirt physics, it just might take a few iterations.

[Harms]

youtube showed me fun dirt balls and now they are gone :(

[Weißbrot]

I also hope the new dirt/ore physics will allow the same handling like the old/current.
With the ball physics its possible to create ore passes, with the new physics in the Open Beta this isnt possible at all, you would need to use conveyors which is in my honest opinion just lame in underground mines.

I like the old dirt system better as well, its more satisfying to take big scoops and seeing the bucket filled with the round voxels, so was dumping it, it was also more informative I feel its like I dont know if what I dumped made it or not in a ramped hopper. I also dont like how you dump a full bucket a small pile of dirt forms rather than before where something not as large but similar enough would form
I too hope they keep it in as a option

[WALTER WHITE THE LAST METHBENDER]

join the discord guys i feel for the old system aswell meaby if we are more that want it we could get it

[9lue]

Be patient ffs. Game is working awesome with twin sticks! Don't dare mess that up!

I think the new system can get reasonably good at some point in time, but once they switch the beta to stable, this will be a rude awakening for many when the dirt balls are suddenly gone and that new system becomes mandatory.
I have not played the game for more than 20 minutes in the beta, the new system is not fun for me and looks bad, at least till now.

I think many people enjoying the game on the stable version will face a big let down when the beta goes to stable.

I should hopefully be an option still, otherwise this would look not so good.

The dirt balls are gone for good in the future, at least that is what i got from discord. The system cost too much resources, and now we have multiplayer, i guess these two do not go along.
The new bulk(ish?) system is the way forward, and we can only hope that it reach the quality and enjoyment the dirt balls had, sometime in the future.

Well, I sure hope that they leave dirt balls as a beta branch option.
