At this precise moment, I am just hanging on to see what comes. I hardly play much any more because I'm bored with space trucking since, after a couple of runs, it's no longer profitable. Bounty hunting is actually quite boring too, pew, pew, collect bounty, pew, pew, collect bounty... YAWN. I'm not really up for exploration since the "spectacular sights" are a bit like looking at paintings in an art gallery, it's paint on a canvas, why should that fill me with awe? As you can see, I'm not into sightseeing and scenic views. Mining is totally borked so that's a non starter. Not much left really.

All I hope is that the 1.3 update isn't the same as the 1.2 update. That is, specifically for open players with little or nothing for solo players. In 1.2, we had wings, hooray for the open players who can now gang up on each other, nothing at all was offered to the solo players, no NPC wingmen or anything, although even NPC's suddenly got wings too. All the solo players effectively got was a couple of ships. However, with a catchphrase like "powerplay" I can pretty much guess that 1.3 is going to be yet another bonus for open players and the solo players get maybe another two ships.
 
Michael said Power Play is the biggest "Content" update yet....so it sure better be a lot more content.
Drones were one example and FD has said that was just the beginning so.....fingers crossed.

I just hope "secret" will be better than the "black box" aka "you won't know which exact result you have triggered, but whatever happened - it was triggered by you!"

Yes, but what has been the "biggest content" update so far? It only has to beat that to gain the title and if the biggest so far was fairly small...
.
 
I'd hope it is actual interaction and communication with NPCs, which is the cement that's supposed to bind everything together in open world sandboxes, and that's critically missing to this day.
 
With the overhaul in missions systems, I think it has to do with a shift of power in the galaxy.

Right now, the federation have a lot of control (as we should!) but something will come along to either shift the power control into another factions favour, causing numerous disruptions and events... or something comes along which will end up with a new galactic power in play, bringing the current factions closer together to fight a bigger and far more powerful... thing.

Who knows... it could be anything... could even be... alien like....

Ok... Thargoids. There, I said it lol :D

You would want to hope not for your sake...
 
Maybe it will be some kind of player faction system? Essentially guilds.

Another insanely sweet future thing would be player outposts-- maybe make it so they have to be in distant orbits and in uninhabited systems. Just a one landing pad little station, perhaps even disguised as an asteroid with an entry way something like the space stations.

Especailly considering the new screenshots of the Imperial Courier, taken from far back in the ship (that hallway is BEHIND the cockpit, so far that it is a little bit on the odd side to take the screenshot from so far away, and to model the cockpit so far back when the player would never view it).
I mean traditionally they would just have a door behind the seat, like on all the other ships, right?
To me, and my rampant optimism, it suggests that they are teasing about walking around in ships.
