Isn't it time for a new surface vehicle?

[HazardousMatt]

I mean Horizons has been out since what December 2015? And we are still driving the annoying Scarab. When are we going to have options for surface vehicles? We got plenty of ships so why not these?

Please for the love of all that's holy give us a skimmer we can pilot or something.

Probably wait for the Planet Surface update later this year.

Must be so fun driving one of those 14 wheels trucks on rough terrain

Do you know the name of the artist Cmdr? I would love to check his work..

I wouldn't mind if some of these vehicles are class 4 + for 1 vehicle.

2 canisters limit when there are normally 8 canisters on the ground, + the recalled ship lands over 1 km away, all adds to the frustration.

Be also nice if you could leave say a mining pod on a planet come back say 1 hr later and collect the pod full of some refined materials. or you collect the pod full of fragments and your in ship refinery processes it, so you can then just put the pod back on the planet to collect more.

Non Vehicle types could be a cargo drop pod that you can drop near a POI, and fill up from surrounding mining efforts, scavenger. It would be like a temporary outpost, can be defended or even plundered using the similar mechanics to mega-ship plundering.

How about an all track vehicle that has thrusters keeping it firm on the surface no matter the gravity. I'll buy that.

What... what are those and when I can buy one? Seriously. We need big sturdy 18 wheeler here with big cargo hold for all the material grinding.

OP: This is the missing mode of ground transportation:

Not sure, it was posted on reddit in the last couple of days. Only name suggested was Ben Andrews.

Hi,

It's Gerald Fitzgerald. You can see his stuff here.

Actually it`s way past that time... Multiple SRV types were advertised as a part of Horizons season. Horizons is over. Not a single new SRV

Yes please.

We have multiple coloured SRVs....
...does that count?

Anything with downward thrusters to give it traction. Now that would be driver assist.

I want a tourist bus for conducting planetary tours. "Over the horizon to left the magnificent rings of Planet X are now clearly visible. And to our right there appears to be a random NPC ship just sat there doing absolutely nothing."

It would also be cool if there was versions for things like combat, exploration, salvaging, racing, etc. Or if we could modify the existing SRV for these things.

 

[Toffmeister]

I've wanted a different SRV since about two minutes after using the current one, and after seeing what might have been available (see previous artwork) I now feel totally cheated and DEMAND new SRVs.

I'd love more variety but — just don't forget that any new vehicle, with current game mechanics and ship models, needs to fit through the cargo hatch.
In best case scenario it can also exit the fighter launch platform.

I've seen some pretty absurd suggestions in older threads like this, every since Horizons got released.
Just saying...this isn't exactly rocket science...

Recently I've been enjoying fighting Guardian Sentinels in tank-style combat, so I personally wouldn't mind a main battle tank (hover or threaded) , but that doesn't change the fact that ships only have two exits for vehicles.
