Circuits vs Nanites: The Copium Poll

Post by Agux909 » #609867

So here's a funny little poll to share a laugh, bring up hot takes and arguments from either side, also created in general chat so you don't feel under the pressure of someone breathing on your neck in coding feedback thread and such. Usual forum stuff you know. You can also just vote and not post, it's fine.

This isn't supposed to change anything of course, but I'd personally like to have a permanent log of opinions about the topic at hand, and to be able to leave it here for reflection in the future, whatever happens.

Thanks for voting if you did! Have a good day.

(if you didn't vote I wish you a good one regardless)
Spoiler:
I actually voted for option 3

August 8 2021 update:
Spoiler:
After one day of the poll being up, with more than 40 participants, the race is close between those in agreement of nanites having been replaced and those thinking both should stay.

The other teams seem to be lagging behind: the uncaring ones, the circuit haters, and the ones who'd like both to burn in hell. They're doing their best but it seems it won't be enough against the two main titans!

Excitement fills the forums as an inaudible crowd cheers for the two competing options going toe to toe, around 15 votes each. What an amazing start!

We'll keep you periodically informed unless we don't. Stay tuned for more Nanites vs Circuits action!

Only here, in the /tg/ General Chat subforum!

The only cure for thinking actively scrapping a save-able gameplay mechanic is gonna make the game better in the long run, is a bullet to the brainstem. Save the nanites.

Circuits are cool in concept but if they're gonna become anything more than "I made a robot that screams!" is still up in the air. Nanites... was wacky. Broke medbay, the creator's intent (for the nanites to be sabotaged) did not happen at all, etc.

the problem is that le coders ideology was specifically to make new circuits worthless
they arent going to operate a turret or anything

Oh boy I can't wait to spend the shift upgrading machines I'll never use. That sounds like a good use of the entire shift.

Science is made for isolated autism, there's no escaping it. It's actually pretty realistic anyway.

wish that circuits weren't used to exclusively spam through un-mutable channels by people who think they're based and clearly the funniest alive by spamming noises
