IF Space Legs, Atmospheric Planets and Base Building are not part of New Era...

Here there is a big IF, because tbh all discussions about Legs and Base Building come from an unofficial leak and, even worse, atmospheric planets is purely players speculation.
So what IF the New Era of Elite Dangerous is about none of the three?

Let's prepare ourselves to a B-Plan: with such a "big" manpower of roughly 80 developers working at this project for more than 2 years, what would you expect or wish to see as an alternate content release?
 
If we aren't getting at least two of the three headline features players have been asking for for years, then we'll probably see a player exodus, the sort of scale eve the club's dynasty project in the Formadine Rift could only just about manage to cope with.

Yep, if they aren't currently working on Atmo' Landings or Space Legs, I bet the FDev office isn't a happy place to be.

Course, it's possible FDev have come up with something entirely new, which nobody else has thought of, and we'll all be amazed by it when we see it but, sadly, FDev's history doesn't really include many examples of stunning initiative.
 
Well I don't think it will be space legs (still a long way to go)
Atmospheric planets (may be)
New ship yes (Panther Clipper I hope)
Gas mining (will be very nice)

Fleet carrier (will be)
Colour dash board change (I can only pray and hope) this will be more for the console users both Xbox and PS4.
Update to the galaxy (adding vampire star and more) remember recent discoveries of a vampire star was the news not to long ago.

Well thats all I think of at the moment.
 
Enormous mountains of salt. Actually that's a given whatever happens.

Yep, that's why I'm talking about a B-Plan. What other features in your opinion could fill this huge gap?
"Nothing" is also an answer to the OP question (mine actually)!

Besides atmos or legs, nothing.

I mean, there is a lot of stuff that could be added to make the game much better in lots of ways, but I'm talking about something that could be worth paying another 40$/50$ and enhance cosmetic sales. I don't think "revamped BGS" or "better economy", or "moar thargoids" would make people rush to their wallets.
