Did someone mention DLC?

Short-haired manual random number generators for our cockpits.

Probably horse armor

Already been added. See HRP's and Mil-spec slots. :D

You're welcome.

As to the OP, yes I believe this was mentioned in the Beyond announcement that Paid DLC content will also be released in addition to the Beyond updates (which are free for all current owners of ED) which address core game functionality changes. From what I've seen, they'll also be releasing other additional content like the Chieftan, Krait and who knows what else. So far I haven't seen any additional "price tags" included with new ships and such so people speculating that they'll have to pay for such items are merely talking out of the side of their necks.

Personally, I'm satisfied with the fact that they're aiming to improve things- I just wish their communication schedule (and means of doing so) was a bit more timely. We'll see how it pans out, eventually. Giving some actual definitive reasons as to why they're ignoring critical Focused Feedback (which they clearly requested) would be a good start in this, IMO. Introducing major changes to the way things work and simply giving everyone the finger after you've asked for feedback isn't exactly a way to foster positive discussion, after all.

That said, I'm excited to see what they have in store. We're barely in the second month of this year, so there's plenty of time for other things to be announced and implemented.


And here's a theme song to go with it.
 
one of the Devs said there IS some premium (aka paid) content coming in 2018.

but we have no idea what it is or when it is coming (though safe money will bet on at the back end of the year imo)

Any odds it's 1000 dollars for a fully fitted instant fleet carrier. No work required! 8)

They will allow you to buy an ingame currency the fleet can pool together so it's not as expensive. ><

Although mixing in game grind and out of game might be a way for them to make money. As long as it's pay or grind optional and it doesn't interfere with future game expansion.

You know they could sell generic tier tokens that you can trade in for x amount of upgrade resources at said tier. 1x, 10x, 100x tier tokens etc. They could be exchanged for any number of that tiers resources so you don't need to go hunt for them. They could come in T1-5.

Or they could simply sell a tier 6token that can be converted down to smaller ones. Then you can even get several tier 5 per token or farther down. Call it pay to grindless.

They didn't. There were no details except "sometime during the live of Beyond" (and that wording is not a direct quote).

Yup, same here : the only thing I read so far is one post about premium content in 2018. A lot of people I know guesstimate it will be released very late in 2018 (myself included) but this is just a guess AFAIK.
 
[*]And a DLC to add something of true significance - My hope is for atmospheric landings. At least on lifeless planets, but possibly even with vegetation? Given we know there's exploration improvements coming in Q4, and there's talk of planetary graphics getting an update, this seems a logical tie in to me at least![/list]
In short I'm hoping Q4 with show FD are raising the bar on the depth of the gameplay & mechanics they're now adding...
Prepared to be disappointed by Q4 (cos we usually are by vague FDev promises), but the 2019 season may well have atmospheric landings (on lifeless planets), if my spidey sense is right...
