One can dream instead we get beige....
Not outside the realm of possibility. Unreal Engine's lighting is great, but it's not on a pedestal way above other engines when it comes to lighting. If FD's lighting artists nail down the lighting for the day/night cycle with different types of atmospheres, the rest is just good texture work and the texture artists have proven themselves on rocky and ice planets.

I have that playable demo from Unreal Engine 4.
The guy wanted to do some kind of First Person Shooter PvP, with assets from the game. So you have a massive Farragut Battle Cruiser (in first person while walking below it, that 2km thing looks incredible), a Corvette, an Anaconda, a Clipper, an Eagle and a Sidewinder docked as well, and you can play all around them.
I'll uploaded some pics in this album: http://imgur.com/a/G8E3B
3 Examples:
Federal Corvette
Imperial Clipper
Anaconda:

Could look for the PC gamers and possibly the newer PS4 consoles if it can handle it.
Many game devs gimp so much on the PC due to the consoles limitations that even if they could produce the visuals they won't.....All the console kiddies would cry that their binkies aren't as pretty. Plus it's usually only done for devious sales tactics to make the game look better than it is.

It would be awesome if ED can get to those kind of graphics, might need to start saving for a new rig though :O
Love that: "another empty world to explore for no reason". [hehe]

Great for earth-likes but what about exo-planets? The ones with the chlorine atmospheres and the LV-426's?
