IC2 announced for 1.8.9, It now uses RF, thoughts?

I hate the fact that it now will use RF in 1.8.9, RF is extremely easy to make, it made IC2 difficult and fun at the same time, now with stuff like the mass fabricator it will produce millions, upon millions, of UUm per tick, all because of the RF thing, anyone else's feelings on this?

 

i am against the idea of having one power source for everything
as it made it fun to find ways to bridge the gap between mods

 

welp dartcraft has officially surpassed IC2 as my favorite mod.....Flux ( :3 see what i did there?) sake Q-Q this sucks

 

I will always have a spot for ic2 but why would they change it to rf T-T

 

I hate multiple power sources it's so annoying I am happy

 

its so annoying that it makes you actually work on a power system

 

I'm glad, I get tired of changing power. It would be nice if all mods that used power was the same (RF) since it is the most common, they could just change how much RF it costs.

 

people would just up the ammount of RF is generated (see: Nether star generator)

 

i would just hook up a mass fab to 2 lightning rods from Ie
16mill rf each

 

I mean we already just used mainly rf for our ic2 machines on infinity expert mode, this will just let us skip the conversion step I guess. Although I do feel the loss of multiple power systems is a shame

 

16 million from lightning rod what ?

 

yhea, that's how broken RF power systems are

 

16 mil per strike at some rf/t

 

yep mix that with cyro conduits
and blood magic plus 5 lightning rods = a ton of power
able to fill around 80+ reasonant energy things in about 3-5 minuets[DOUBLEPOST=1459463619,1459463594][/DOUBLEPOST]so just think of what you can do with a mass fab

 

Bye MJ
Bye EU

Its a shame to lose those and i agree rf generation is broken

 

yep all the old power gens are dieing in favor of rf
because people want easy

 

You have no idea if this is true. With tons of mods that give tons of RF, the UU matter system could be changed entirely. Its a major part of IC2 and I would be very surprised if it were overlooked.

Also, most people that Ive seen dont even make IC2 power. Converting RF to EU via IE cables is very, very common. So I dont see a problem with it. If you personally dont want it to be easier, the only use IC2 power generation for your builds. *shrug* how does it effect you personally if someone else uses a big reactor.

In the end, the game is about having fun. If you want a challenge, only use IC2 machines to power other ic2 machines. Doesnt matter if the label has changed, as proper EU hasnt worked since IC2 1.3 (EU Packets). If someone else wants to make it easier by using RF, then let them. We were already doing it anyway

 

uu matter has changed its going from a liquid to the old uu matter

 

It still is sad to see it go away, EU was fun, and the lightning rod and nether star generators being able to create trillions of rf per few minutes doesn't help it, if UUM exists AT ALL and is generated straight from RF like it would be, it'd have this effect

 

Well, like I said. What other people do with their power shouldn't really be a concern. If you want the challenge, then just dont use those types of power gen for your machines.

If I were on the same server as you, and I was using massive amounts of power to create UU matter (Which, btw, on other servers that allow world creation, you can make endless oceans of UUmatter, so I dont see your point) how does it effect you or dampen your personal gameplay?
