Following Powerplay - What would you most like to see in Elite Dangerous going forwards?

Many thanks to all that have voted and contributed to this thread. Personally I think it's very enlightening and I hope the powers that be have been reading, and getting some good feedback on what to focus on putting into the future releases.

It's reassuring to hear that many people want relatively simple content added such as more and varied missions which will add much more to the game with relatively small effort on FD's part. It shows that the base game is solid and many Commanders are enjoying it.

Of course, the paid future expansions will be nice eye candy and bring brand new game mechanics, but the desire for good old FFE style missions still holds sway after all these years. Well I guess they do have historic significance to many of us after all!

Sorry, I omitted the persistent NPC's as an option!

Please keep contributing. If I can get a spare half hour, I'll try to summarise the most popular "Others" requests in the OP via an edit and maybe attempt to highlight this via a PM to the FD bigwigs.

Well if you want ED to stay ahead of the curve marketing wise then they better get going on planetary landings and exploration at a bare minimum, there are 3 games right now getting ready to hit the market this summer that have all that and more.

Salvageable wrecks. Salvage modules, weapons and parts of hulls. if you salvage enough then you could build a ship. Or wrecks that need parts to get working.

Salvage year- New type of station/ outpost where you can bring the above to store and bilt your ship for a small fitting and refurbishment fee based upon the repair cost system.

New salvage ship/module. what aids in the collection and transportation of the above within the ship. like a refinery.

New Tow module - that tows the larger structural salvage behind your current ship.

Salvage Drones - little limpets that find and retrieve the salvageable components or parts of them and puts them in Salvage module.

NPC dialogs -> "web of contacts" and passenger transportation. For me those things lack from core ED. If those are added, we can add small tweaks and things and wait for expansions.

Agree with this 100%
