Fortport Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 While I've yet to think up a lore, or abilities, I've thought multiple times that this game needs a monkey-man species. If the image you would imagine just doesn't come to you, think of the Apex in Starbound. Covered in fur everywhere but their palms, the soles of their feet, toes, and abdomen/belly. Discuss. Oh, and if you want to try and cook up a lore for them with me, try to get a me either on the server, or my skype, below. Icons would also be pretty awesome. BIN MONTAGE
Blue Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 A new playable race? We already have the Vaucra coming underway... Plus, I'm not in favor of more aliens based on Terran animals. Something a little more "foreign" would do.
canon35 Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Agreed, I don't like races that are animal-human hybrids (Tajara, unathi, vaucra). IMO, we should have more races like dionae and Vox.

Sounds like the perfect moment to mention my longing to implement a completely non-humanoid race, the Fungi! http://aurorastation.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=1362
Erik Tiber Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 I would much ratehr have ape uplifts. The tajarans and Unathi are already too human-like. We should not add any additional alien races unless the race is actually alien. And if the race can be described as "ape-men" then it is not alien enough. I mean something like hydrocarbon bones, hydraulic muscles, an alien brain structure, something which would actually provide people with new opportunities. If someone wants to play something identical to a human which just speaks funny, we already have unathi and Tajarans for that.
mrimatool Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Just realised this post was made by FortPort....
SgtSammac Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 I personally am of the opinion of quite bluntly: fix the shit we have before adding new shit. There are so many things that can be fixed about the existing races, I.e. The IPC's that we are probably better off fixing them and finishing the Vaurca before we look at yet more alien races.
