Looking for information about ED

[Spacehamster]

Hello spacepilots,

the past 2 days I spend about 5 hours with looking for infos about gamefeatures but I still have plenty of questions about this game.


I. Which features will be added at release and which will come later in a dlc or never?

1) Walking around in your ship
2) Walking around in stations
2) FPS/Boarding ships
3) Landing on planets
4) Having more than 1 ship at a time
5) Working as a team on one big ship, 1 pilot, 1 gunner, 1 man for repairs etc.
6) Customizing your ships interieur

II. In the videos I saw only 2 different kind of space stations, are there or will there be more different types?

III. Can you run out of fuel? And what happens then?

I guess that's all for now, thank you for your time.

Try looking in the Design discussion archives here on the forum. There's a lot of information there.

1, 2 & 2 (??) - Future planned DLC - personally I don't expect this for at least 18-24 months post primary release of the game.
3 - maybe the first DLC we will get - maybe 12 month after release, maybe some testing before, maybe longer.
4 - should be at release, not sure how many you will be able to have tho (somehow think it's 3 - but not sure)
5 - I don't think this is planned at all
6 - I don't think this is planned at all

II - yes, there are a number of variants - see the news letters which have shown a few - we will also be getting space ports, fuel stations and a number of assorted bases - again see the latest newsletters.

III - yep, you can run out of fuel and you then need to send out a distress call and wait to see what turns up!

Under I, the first four points will be in the addon. Point five (4) should be at release. Next one, hopefully never and the last may or may not but possibly will cost extra in a similar way to decals.

II There will be lots of variants. At the moment, I think I have docked at four different ones.

III Yes you can run out of fuel, I have and sent out a distress signal in order to get help from a passer-by who will charge a huge amount for doing so or a pirate who may take your cargo as well or possibly an assassin who may kill you.

hhhh, read DDA or early game design, pilot's manual and QA/interviews with David to know all there is to know about the game

there will be many more type stations, now there are 3 and 4th confirmed in beta2, asteroid station confirmed after initial release and many different outposts confirmed too

multiship ownership will be soon, landing on planets/fps, walking around stations and boarding will be in expansions

3 - maybe the first DLC we will get

Didn't DOBE say that walking around in the ships and stations will be before planetary landings? That way we can actually do something on the planets and not just wistfully look out of the cockpit like a child that's been grounded after some mischief.

We will likely be able to land on air-less moons/planets before we can walk around and then be able to land on moons/planets with atmospheres after we can walk around.

Perhaps consider backing Star Citizen?

Or make your own game the way you want it - ok maybe not
