If exploring a planet's surface is as engrossing and challenging as this, then Exploration will be solved imo. Maybe FD will implement a survival mode that relies on either being rescued and/or rebuilding/restocking your ship from a surface after a bad landing incident. They already have a skeleton version of module malfunction, so all they'd need to do is add more types and degrees of malfunction to make ship damage more interesting (for both combat and exploration!). In any case, I look forward to the forum posts that spawn requesting this kind of gameplay after the movie comes out in October! What timing, since PL will launch shortly after ;)

Maybe growing corn is what they meant when they mentioned a future crafting system. Could be a new avenue for the Fuel Rats....

The book is very good. Well worth a read before you see the film.
Incidentally I read the review it got in TOTAL FILM and it was very good. Highly anticipated and in total collaboration with NASA. To such an extent all the gear the used in the film and all the tech was NASA etched and logod. I love exact attention to detail like that and I am hoping it's every bit as awesome as it could vibe.

The only problem with movies is that you cant react and this makes them booooring.

Btw why does any cheap ego shooter looks more realistic than ED? This can be better...

I've read the book twice now, and can easily call it one of my favourites, so it goes without saying that I am really excited for the film. Based on what I've heard, too, it's following the book very closely, too, so that's awesome :D

Those of you who haven't read the book... well, what are you still doing here?! READ IT! It'll give you something to do on those 200,000LS trips in binary star systems :p

FWIW the audio book (I've read the book and listened to the audio) is really well done. One of the best audiobooks I've ever heard. The voice acting is incredible.

I wonder how they kill Sean Bean's character since he doesn't even go to Mars. Maybe a random car just hits him when he exits the building near the end of the movie..

Yeah, I really enjoyed the book. The science is really good and the author has a lot of fun putting the main character in impossible situations and then saying "Okay, how do we get out of this?"
