So... apparently GregoriusT is now actually in the IC2 Team, and in the upcoming IC2 for 1.6, recipes are a lot more annoying. The others in the IC2 Team are starting to do stuff like GregTech.

Forge Hammers, Cutters, Plates, Item Casings...

 

I think I like this, actually. Now all the peoples playing modpacks that don't have GregTech will get a bit of the flavour too.

Hahaaa...

 

Discuss!

 

(Here's a direwolf20 episode that has some of the stuff)

People saw the mods as game breaking, so it is no surprise that things will be made more difficult to get.

I like the change to make people use tools etc to make plates and wires. It always seemed a little stupid being able to form them with your bare hands.

What they should do though is let you make the tool, and add it to a special tools inventory on a crafting bench. If you've got it on the bench you can make the stuff directly. Perhaps by putting the plates in the crafting area, then clicking the hammer in your tools section you get plates crafted.

 

They should even require an anvil to make plates with the hammer instead of just a regular crafting area.

 

I'd also like them to change vanilla behaviour so you to make an axe from flint and sticks (which are obtained from leaves instead/as well) before you can chop down trees. I saw this kind of mechanic in TerraFirmaCraft and love it.

People wouldn't be able to find flint quick enough before nightfall.

There is a machine called the Metal Former which basically functions as the Forge Hammer, the Wire Cutter and crafting Wires all in one.

 

And why should IC2 be like TerraFirmaCraft and change basically every mechanic in the game? I love TFC and all, but I think there's a reason it's normally played by itself.

Also, remember that conflict with mDiyo and GregoriusT? The conflict that made FTB have two separate packs for 1.5 (other than Direwolf20, which never used GregTech anyway)? Yeah. If IC2 changes stuff like that, that's probably gonna happen. IC2 will not be in the future Unleashed.

I figured he was done doing TFC videos, I really need to catch up...

Thankfully I get emailed whenever those I subscribe to post new videos so I have a backlog in my emails of all of the stuff I've missed.

I like how things get offtopic really quickly here in the Unofficial FTB Forums.

lol I'm used to it.

I was only referring to TFC as that was where I saw the sticks from leaves, and axe required for chopping trees.

 

Good point on the flint I guess. TFC uses stones on the ground, but I just thought flint was sensible.

 

It'll get back on topic eventually. The forum would be boring if everyone stayed on topic all the time.

FTB needs a terrafirmacraft pack like slows stream, where there is one mod that it is based around and tech mods in to make it easier,

Erm... use Slow's Stream Pack?

I meant something like slows stream but with terrafirmacraft instead of divineRPG.

That is why GregoriousT made GregTech.
