I think I heard FD mutter something about forth-coming premium content (or words to that effect. Paid for dlc as I understood it).

Any idea what this may be?

No, we still don't have any details about what that will entail, we only know that it's supposed to arrive sometime in 2018, and that LEP owners will have free access to whatever it is. Could be anything from a special paintjob to atmospheric landings.

Thanks for clarifying that for me. [haha]

What's the favourite? What's got the best odds, if one was a betting sort?

You mean my tip of what could it be?
Maybe a ship. Dunno. Something that will be substantial enough to make Lifetime pass owners happy while not being substantial enough to upset the rest of us too much.

(Whom am I kidding, of course the forum will be flooded by "Why I have to buy this?" and "You don't have to buy this if you don't want to" threads...)

Agreed.... all logical speculation points towards Atmospheric landing (of the non life bearing Varity). Btw I approve of your Lancaster themed signature. Fine aircraft they were.

This machine I find particulary pleasing on the lug hole.

There's no way it'll be atmospheric landing, that's way down the line. We've not got the volcanic or gas giants yet.
Personally I'm thinking it'll be something to tie in with the new exploration features and mining. It needs to be something ancillary to the game as not everyone will have bought it.
The squadron carriers will require management, they're the first ownable thing in the game and may even require building. The game systems needed to do that makes me think that maybe the next expansion could be some sort of planetary structure building system.

I am willing to bet my account,heck even my very fast motorbike that we won't get atmospherics this year(probably not even next year), shame as I want that more than anything.

Yet there are atmospheric type effects in interesting landing areas and every time you land on an airless moon you go through a 'Glide' phase. They will do atmospheric landing before any other major update... wait and see :)

I think atmospheric landing with simple worlds is coming December 2018 or Q1 2019. Because atmospheric landing is the top requested feature that many people are willing to pay money for. Fully populated Earth-like worlds would come later.

The Fleet Carriers are part of a free Beyond update. So the Premium DLC could be something else like a manageable surface city or new SRV types and HUD customization.
