You know how when you surface scan a planet you get to see this POI? Like, [Minor wreckage (Threat 2)]? I already like that super much, I've just done a bunch of these for a few hours (online meetings, yay!). But there never was any actual threat so I was thinking about how it could be made cooler. Now I am not a professional game designer, so maybe it dont make any sense or something, but what if the 'threat 2' bit somehow was related to the threat you'd find there? So for example the bigger the number, the bigger the threat? I am not a native speaker, so maybe I cant get it across very well, but what if the threat level somehow was indicative of, how shall I put it, the level of the threat?
Let me give you an example. Suppose it was 'threat 0'. Zero is a very small number. Its smaller than all the other threat numbers even! So what if 'Threat 0' would mean 'no threat'? And then the bigger numbers would mean 'bigger threat'? So 'threat 1' would have a mean guy with a gun, and 'threat 2' would have two mean guys with a gun! Or one mean guy with a bigger gun. I dunno. But like scarier than the first one. But not as scary as threat 3, that would have three meanies with guns. Or two meanies plus one with a bigger gun. Or just one guy with a huuuuge gun. Or a woman, that is also cool.
Dont get me wrong, I think it is awesome that the devs have managed to add a number there, and it even changes. Sometimes it is a 0, but some other times it is 1. Or 2. Or 3! Thats wicked! I just thought it'd be neat if the number means something. I have tons of other ideas, but thought I'd post this one first.
