Just IC2 trying to get on the multiblock reactors in an effort to keep up with the rest of the modding world. Personally, I'll stick with Big Reactors. Nothing to see here really...
yeah, it's not the difficulty, it's just the whole multiblock all of the things idea that is ridonkulous. the bandwagon is full, please take your creativity in another direction.
thx

Informative? A hyperlink that says "this" or "link" is no more informative than an image, and I would argue it's less informative then the image.
I don't see that post as saying it's more important that any other post in there. If people ignore everything else in the thread because of that, that's their problem, not ours.
This... is a cry for help.
to me.... IC2 is pretty much dead. I give them credit for trying to breath in some new life into this project, but to me... I can only hope some other mod developers are willing to take some of the things I did like from IC2 and turn it into a new mod(s)
the topic is about the modded minecraft community and things related to that.
a texturepack that's aimed at showing new textures for minecraft mods is related to modded minecraft, so it's allowed
posting just an image for a post... well... I do that all the time
They already have. Mekanism has already replaced most of it, with Big Reactors doing a better version of extremely big and complicated nuclear reactors.
I'm still waiting for a good crops replacement. I know there are a few alternatives out there that are a bit similar, but I liked how crops basically worked
BUT there was still alot of things wrong with crops in IC2, it'd be nice if there could be a crop system like how the system of Forestry's bees, trees and butterflies work aswell where there are quite some species you can breed to, and combining certain species would create new ones. there could be the manual way of doing it by hand, and there could be machines to speed things up

I'm not sure if I understand this objection. Big Reactors are enormous multiblocks, far larger and more resource intensive than IC2 reactors, actually.
Ahh, yea. Crops. I believe the mod you are looking for is Magical Crops.
The only thing I ever used Crops for was Stickreeds to automate rubber production more easily (since there was an addon for compatibility with Crops and Forestry's pre-multiblock farm setups so that the harvester would automatically harvest the resin from the stickreeds but not the actual plants themselves). These days, I just use an MFR Harvester/Planter with rubber tree saplings to accomplish the same thing.

It was just something that made IC2 ...IC2.
Nothing to do with resources ect; it was a weird, almost cartoonish mechanic that everyone associated with IC2.
Somewhat like a namesake/personality- hard to define exactly, but it kinda made the mod what it is.
Maybe its just nostalgia- but I'll miss it anyway.
The last couple times someone tried that the IC2 guys tried to kill there work. They succeeded once. :/
*Their
Secondly they only succeeded in making their opposing mod more popular and widely used.
Ah no one did that the other really did die. It was the one that tried to nick IC2 armors and was planing on recreating the old UU matter system that was killed.
I was annoyed about Simply Jetpacks but IC2 gave it great publicity. I vaguely recall a uu-matter mod. But uu-matter only matters to create IC2 stuff. Even Greg is abandoning IC2 though from the looks of it. Its a sign most definitely.
A flat-out rip and reskin of the Quantum Armor, and a pallet swap for a reskin no less. Not much of a mod, and one that even if IC2 was open source would be killed in moments by any community.
I believe a fine example of this is already known, isn't that right @Vazkii my good man?
