A survey about how you play- anyone can view responses (no private info)!

They weren't hating, that's what the results were showing at the time, but there was a small sample at that point as well.

Does it matter? Gregtech's design is objectively bad, and is rooted in the objectively bad design of IC2. Greg could rebalance his content, but chooses not to. Even then, his modpack is much more suited to people who prefer guidance in their play; no struggling for MC projects because Greg has told you what to build and what to grind for. So let's say the majority of players do appreciate a big, long, guided resource treadmill? There's still a substantial contingent who doesn't want/need that guidance.

I think a far more interesting result is how utterly dominant server play is.

Please don't GT fanboy all over this guy's thread. Its just rude.

I think this needs to be repeated.

On Topic; Voted, Very interesting results so far, can't wait to see the progression over the next few days.

Yeah, this solved a lot of disputes *grins*

I'm sorry but "suck it haters" isn't anything other than a troll, no matter what you want it to be.[DOUBLEPOST=1371830742][/DOUBLEPOST]

Unless it's said in a jovial / friendly / jokey way. You seem to misunderstand everything I say as a personal affront. I can honestly tell you that I didn't mean anything by it, if I'd said it out loud you'd have understood by the tone of my voice.

But whatever, as they say, the internet needs a sarcasm font.

In that case I just misunderstood you. Apologies

I wish there were 2 "FPS" questions, because I get 11-20 on my Laptop and 60+ on my Dad's computer.

Oh, hey guys, what day did Dire first introduce FTB to his subs?
I know it was before August, and I joined FTB around the beginning.

Just keep in mind, on that page, everytime I refresh the 3 text based questions, it will keep the old responses, but move the new ones to the very last column in the spreadsheet.

VERY SURPRISING. the percent of people who "prefer" a singleplayer experience is more than the percent who play singleplayer..

I can't stand SMP, personally. I don't like playing it, and I don't like watching it. If I'm honest, though, it's mostly just because I'm really slow and bad at the game; and if anyone else is playing with me, then they just make me unhappy about how much faster and more productive they are.

I had the same problem. On bad days, I still do. Let me sympathize...

On RR I am not only one of the worse builders and system engineers, I have less time to work on them than anyone. So my builds are dinky and lame. Meanwhile WayOfTime has an epic curtain of angelic light and two bases both beautifully apportioned, DoctorOr has... his magical matter fabrication in his (one of many) towers makes dozens of ingots a second and looks like a supernova. Poppycocks and RedBoss have Their Facilites. An Saice... Holy crap. Not only has Saice made a beautiful and convincing crashed spaceship, but he has actually produced a AS reactor design stronger than anyone thought possible, nearly doubling his output off conventional designs.

And that's just the most standout examples, everyone has done cool stuff. I have a tunnel in the ground that looks like Jack Skellington's esophagus and a room or two.

You just need to remind yourself that you're playing your game. Minecraft has no winners or losers. It has builders. And everyone's build is strange and new to outsiders.

On the other hand, have been able to set up base in an Enchanted Forest with all the freaking witches everywhere.
That's quite impressive, to be honest.

 

[Dackstrus]

Posted my stuff, I see no reason to not help out Data collection.

Also, I was quite impressed with the awnsers, to be honest.

I remember when I used to just loiter around your house because I had nowhere to live. I just don't like building because like, you have to dig up the floor, then replace it, then build the walls, then place one block for the corner of the roof and remove it.. and so on. Minecraft just frustrates me because I have a lot of ideas and it takes me way too long to express them.

 

[whizzball1]

The reason I really don't like Survival is because I have to actually gather the resources myself.
It's more fun for me to just Creatively design stuff.
For example, say I was invited on Forgecraft (That would never happen though, this is an example).
I would just do stuff in Creative mode until the people on Forgecraft had reached Creative Mode, then I could ask for resources to at least start off so I don't have to mine, my least favourite job.
Don't say I'm lazy.
The last time I mined, I got lost in a cave and never found my way out, and I was forced to die and lose my Stone Pickaxe (This was 2 years ago when I knew almost nothing about MC, I didn't even know what a Furnace was!). I then gave up. (There was no creative mode then and I didn't know about mods either.)
I never mined since, unless there was a Mystcraft world with no caves.
Even then, I was reluctant.

Now that I got my dartcraft stuff in order, it's easy. My regeneration and electric armor beats their poison every time.

I mean when you started setting up.
Also, I actually like your LP's as much as I like Way's. And that's saying a lot.

I always love a good survey... I also like that I'm not that only one that prefers Peaceful. Makes me feel better about playing FTB with that difficulty.
