I thought 0.13 was suppose to bring the new concrete graphic that they talked about in that FFF? were did that went?

People complained that the new style was not-factorio, which is the worst type of style to be.

I'm still really hoping for diagonal corners at some point. I'm tired of having to border all my roads with stone brick to avoid giant jaggies.

Edit: I looked in the comment thread for that FF article, and found exactly one person complaining about the style, and lots of people that loved it. I'm thinking there had to have been some other issue?

Weird when I first saw it I thought it was very factorio looking. The current concrete graphic look like a 3 years old opened photoshop and rushed them in 10 minutes.

Really hope they change them in the future.

I almost wish I hadn't seen this. That concrete looks so much nicer than the current in game stuff! Maybe we could convince the devs to release it as a modders asset?

I know right.. it's been 6 months since I've seen that majestic concrete and I still can't get it out of my head.. so disappointing that it wasn't added to the game

I hope they release it as a mod too.

Nonsense. These look much better than the current ones. So why aren't they included?

They look better than current one and i think they fit factorio pretty well.

The is an really easy way to fix that, leave the old in and add the new one.
And since those are pure decorative, I suggest you have only to produce one type and decide what it will look like when you place it.
Though I have no idea how to implement it. (intermediate solution ... have a few more types of it)

I don't understand why no one has come up with this solution earlier ... it is simple and so everyone can be happy. Those who got so used the old concrete that they come to love it ... and those who like a different style.

Completely unnecessary. Just add in the ones shown in the blog post and everyone is happy

Except the one that bitched soo long till the new ones weren't added.

The nightmare is going on ... wooohooo [best impersonation of ghostly sounds I can make] ... you just dreamed to be waking up...

that looks almost Factorio, just need to 'dirty' up the appearance of it a bit, just like how the current Concrete has varying scratches, stains, and Et Cetera on it.
