I’m one of the persons who likes to play factorio without the aliens and the pressure that comes with them. I’ve been drooling at the weekly blog entries showing the coming factorio 2 and have wondered if it’s going to be possible to play without the aliens. I haven’t seen mention of whether they will be required other than I seem to recall they were mentioned on one of the new planets. Does anyone know if the peaceful player will be able to exist in the new game?

Thanks! May your factory continue to grow!

    Fyi, >!unless you check a specific checkbox on map creation, the enemies will attack eventually and if you have played for awhile, very soon. They don’t like your polluting machines!<

        Personally I like automating my defense setup as well. You can also tune the enemy frequency down a lot, so that theyre not a major threat for a long time, but something that you need to deal with somehow in the long run.
