I saw this thread and my mind was filled with images of ships decorated with silken bows and lace frills in all manner of differing shades of pink, and my heart exploded with rainbows and unicorns of delight at the idea. I need my hot pink frilly fer de lance! Please FDev, make this so! :-D

No in Star Trek the most dangerous thing was being the fourth member of an away team it was a guaranteed death sentence
And wearing a red shirt ... don't forget the red shirt. Scottie was the only one to get away with it.
Repped all the funny ones [smile]

So you disapprove of people choosing to fly Sidewinders to Beagle Point?
I've never been on someone's block list before!
Still, it's good to know that DBOBE is paying so much attention to my posts that I can impact the game design.
doesn't do exactly what it says on the tin.

FDEV aren't improving the core gameplay in 2.4, they have this in mind for season 3, in whatever form this is delivered.
I'm a bit confused that you find exploration doesn't threaten or challenge you, as exploration is not that type of gameplay in ED. So, I suggest you head to the nearest CZ or HAZ RES instead. Or take on a myriad of high risk missions. Or go bounty hunting, or play a GC in open, or, well, do anything other than exploration.
Play in Open. Post on the board where you will be, when and in what time zone. Give an outline of your planned route and activities you intend to carry out.
I'll bet your worry factor goes up a few notches.
Depending on the user, this can be a badge of honor.

Sissyverse, wasn't he the chap condemned to roll a boulder up a hill for eternity?
Nah you're thinking of Sisyphus, who was a CMDR condemned to re-roll RNG for eternity.
It is my understanding that the heavy work on the core gameplay will happen post 2.4
Improvements on core gameplay is beyond 2.4 (3.0]<) no in the actual 2.4.

OP was on holiday. Can safely say that going to Prague with the Mrs during summer is dangerous! (-; anyhow... Main purpose of thread was to discuss the lack of environmental reaction from the ED galaxy.
I'm not saying accretion discs should instantly kill you, but there should be gameplay behind them, or any other hazard. They should be relativity safe, as long as you don't do stupid things like acrobatics above a 9g world for example.
We should be able to learn how to handle hazards as we explore. And there should be rewards for handling them. Eg: lost alien ships stuck in an accretion disc.
It would be lovely to finally feel as if the ED galaxy was a natural, living thing that we could explore with respect for its forces. Nature itself should provide the backbone of the gameplay rather than silly "go fetch this" RNG missions.
This post is much clearer; and I can agree that there needs be environment phenomena that can damage you, render your ship inoperable, or at worse, kill you.
