This is just a past retrospective on TE2 and your not scaling it to the current IC2 costs on TE3 right?
since TE3 is no longer a part of BC ecosystem shouldn't it have a new name without "expansion" in it?
I'd love to see a way to convert Red Flux to MJ and EU and back again. As well as having an energy conduit that can transfer MJ and EU. That'd be pretty sick. But everything looks amazing right now for TE!
to be honest, when I saw it when it started I actually thought "meh, just some machines IC2 already has, and what's even the point in automatic cobble generation" but ooh boy what was I wrong when I got to play with it. as soon as I started with it, I loved it, and that love is growing only stronger.
I cannot say too much but there will be a way to convert RF->MJ directly. The reverse still hasn't been decided as far as I know though it may happen.
This morning I will show off the new unified tesseract:

And they have some new configuration options too:

So you can now send power, item and fluid via a single tesseract at the same time. The caveat of this is that the tesseract got more expensive to build - totally worth it in my opinion.
it's defintely awesome to see them all combind into 1 block. do they require anything else to work? like energy for example?
They do not require power but the recipe got difficult. The tech level is post nether now.
One more thing since I suspect this will be asked: http://imgur.com/zHFb2ap
Yes people, they will work with golems

I didn't expect that would be asked, but oh my goodness....
This is fantastic.
I knew there was a reason we loved Thermal Expansion

By TE2 you mean Thermal Expansion? In what universe was it unbalanced?
I'm surprised that anyone is surprised at a good mod becoming popular..I'm actually quite surprised at how popular TE has become over time
Yes.By TE2 you mean Thermal Expansion? In what universe was it unbalanced?

Te was vastly unbalanced COMPARED to other things.
It was alot better than IC2 and other alternatives, power wise, intelligence wise and loads of other reasons.
i see this situation kinda like this:
HD is better than DVD => HD is OP

I think its the ore doubling + bonus item which people are referring to "OP/unbalanced"
Even then its not a vast difference.
The auto-eject/custom siding could also be called 'unbalanced' compared to all the previous item motion/automation
(previously requiring an external mechanic to extract, and infrastructure/upgrades to link machines)
Again, neat mechanic- not an overly vast difference.
User friendly? Very
Balanced? Machine cost feels in line with other mods. There's also a steel machine frame option.
I'd probably call it a placebo unbalance.
(personally I'm indifferent to it- the rich slag is a fairly need mechanic, and I like the general trend of improving technology gives more efficient processing)

Tesseracts?Possibly an unbalance?- but by far one of the expensive/high machine cost methods of teleportation. (aside from IC2)
(It would suit my personal tastes for tesseracts to require energy to run- its not the amount of power needed; I'm talking a token amount- it'll mean more involved in-designs and intuitive setting up of infrastructure. Minecraft is a building game- give us more to build XD)
Well designed? Certainly(It would suit my personal tastes for tesseracts to require energy to run- its not the amount of power needed; I'm talking a token amount- it'll mean more involved in-designs and intuitive setting up of infrastructure. Minecraft is a building game- give us more to build XD)

It doesn't really unbalance the game, it just feels like it.
Dear Team CoFH,
if you need any more confirmation that you desperately need to release as soon as possible, then just look at what people are talking about in their boredom.
