My compilation of suggestions

I've got quiet a few suggestions that I would like to post and it seems weird for me to post an individual thread for all of them, so I will just post them all at once and hope someone will notice :)


  1. Option to disable landing beep
    I would love an option to disable the sound assist beep to help you determine your distance from the pad. We still have the visual indicators and to me the beeps are just annoying, especially on take-off.
  2. Station announcer needs variation
    So at the moment all stations have either the male (with the terrible Dutch accent, no offense I am Dutch myself :)) or the female announcer. This makes space seem very small and kills the scope feeling of the game. Not all stations should have the first or the second announcer voice.
  3. Separate sliders for internal/external sounds
    I would love to tone down the external sounds, like the announcers, station talk, ship explosions, etc, while not loosing some of my own sounds. This is very normal for a game to have!
  4. Helmet option
    I love the life-support sound. I would love to be able to put on that helmet without using the oxygen from the life-support. Why not let us put on that helmet and enjoy the cool sound?
  5. Visual shaking when accelerating is too much
    This might not be an issue for some people, but it's very bothersome to me. I like to fly slow around stations, etc, with flight assist off. All motion is smooth but forward and backward. The shaking is too much in my opinion. It shouldn't shake so violently if I accelerate smoothly.
  6. Silent running needs to be more useful
    At the moment who uses silent running? It heats you up way too fast and recharging the shield takes too long. I would like to suggest that this is made more beneficial, perhaps by leaving the shield half way charged already for example, or maybe the shield starts charging even when in silent mode?
  7. Show total bounty on target window
    It's really silly to have to go all the way into the contacts window to find out the total bounty on a target. Why not list this close to the WANTED status on the target screen? Make life easy!
  8. Transition time to and from supercruise
    I know there are a lot of suggestions on this already so I just want to pitch in and mention that the transition times are just too long. I understand there is probably some loading going on, but it's a terrible immersion breaker.
  9. Unique planet descriptions
    It can't be that all planets get the same description. At least some planets need some lore. Add a custom description with what's going on on that planet, etc.
  10. Population number on planets
    So we've got city lights to indicate population. Now I would like to know the population on each planet. Why isn't this a thing? :)
  11. View outfitting list without lowering
    It would be nice to view the outfitting list without having to go down into the station. Just give us read-only access while we are above the surface.
  12. Shield cell banks added to HUD
    Currently we can see chaff, heat sinks, point defense turrets, all on the HUD in front of us. Why can't we see the shield cell banks? Can we get this added?
  13. On the cargo screen add a T for ton indicator
    Everywhere this came uses a certain scale to indicate size or speed. Why doesn't the cargo screen show that the numbers indicate tons?
  14. Need more route information
    If I plan a route in the galaxy map, I would like to see things like # of jumps, distance between jumps, info on HUD, # jumps remaining, we need more of this.
  15. Disable motion effect lines
    Real life doesn't have space lines and I know this game adds them to show where you are going or at what speed. But it would be nice if we could disable these, just like the orbit lines in super cruise.
  16. Various death effects
    Every, single, death, is the same. We need a bit of change here. A couple of explosions here and there before we blow up. Maybe some targets limp a little longer like others. Now it's just so plane and boring.

Anyway, thanks for hearing me out and I am looking forward to hearing your ideas!

P.S. Sorry about the formatting. I placed a break between all the points, but this forum just keeps deleting them :(
