I think this will be the announcement that starts the 'consolidation' phase of post release. Those unhappy will leave, those on the edge of unhappy will either leave or 'wait one more time', and those that are happy will remain that way.

In our own group of people, this seems to be the current thinking...a few people are already gone...some are waiting for the announcement before decided...and others are going to continue to play regardless of what happens.

What if they announce that they love you?

They are obviously announcing proper client-server networking and a concerted effort to fix the giant laundry list of recurring bugs rather than more broken and irrelevant fluff. Rejoice.
 
The wording seems to imply they wont be doing walking on ships, but walking on planets will be possible. I thought the same thing at first but as far as I can tell all they've said is getting out of your seat and walking around onboard is a long way off.

lol

dittio. nothing will stop me playing the game, its fantastic as it... it does not stop me wanting moar however ;)

incidently ...

in terms of wild speculation if getting out and walking is rule out, thargoids are ruled out, CQC for pc is ruled out (in terms of it being the big thing, not that it is not happening)

so far the front runner seems to be planetary landings however...

has anyone stuck their name in the hat for atmospheric entry? ie maybe not landing yet, but it still does not mean we could not have missions to protect a city being attacked from air, OR alternatively taking on missions to drop supplies via air of quarantined planets (or alternatively dropping bombs to "cleanse" the area)

just trying to think of other possibilities other than PLs which seem to be the running favourite OR the realising of the DDF - which is what I am hoping for but I do not think will be the announcement.

meh I think it'll be the one thing Braben has pushed in almost every single interview since last year.

Big game hunting.

You'll land your ship and a menu will come up and say "You have successfully landed. There are animals here. Big ones. Would you like to go BIG GAME HUNTING?"

if you click no nothing happens

Can you imagine? Where every NPC ship is actually a viable real assett/entity really going from X to Y to do Z, rather than a "local ghost".
 
I am hoping that they extend the mission system to include travel to dark systems as per my thoughts in the suggestions forum.

Meh...I'm of the crowd 'actions speak louder than words'. I don't believe anything a person says...their actions show what they really feel. This is even more true for businesses and their relationship to marketing.

So the missions system will be improved from:-

TAKE "X" TO "Y"...

To:-

TAKE "X" TO " "...

?

Bet the animals will be in an arena. :)


Well then, it will art imitating life, right? With the world ing and moaning about big game hunting...you really think this would come into the game currently? Can't wait to see the world press corps take on this gaming idea, currently!

Nah it'll be this:

take x y,000's of Light years to Z.

Or:

Take x to y, exchange for Z, take Z to z

Both vastly better than what we currently have now!
