I made a post on reddit 2 years ago about getting a fun site added to a planet surface for players to muck about in,
I've been thinking lately and the most fun I've had with other players was before the Thargoids became a reskinned conflict zone, they were a mystery that people went to investigate,
A new site would be found, and players would flock there and just drive about, talk in local chat, do experiments and generally just socialize. reference to the first crashed thargoid ship, the first barnacles, the first thargoid map room building.
I would like to see a themepark style outpost added to the game, where it has a bunch of props to mess around with, like an SRV dirt track, a tight canyon styled low flying race course and whatever other props you can think of.
The site must be limited to 1 site in the bubble and 1 in colonia so that the likelihood of finding other CMDRs there is higher (so that everyone is at those sites and not scattered between a bunch of mirror sites).
There can be a "no fire zone" put up around the site with Coriolis style weapons to deter griefing.
A few KM away (outside of the no fire zone) there can be an "arena" style circuit under a dome with an entrance just big enough for an SRV to enter (so that ships cant interfere) with obstacles inside for people to take cover behind etc where CMDRs can have some SRV combat, world of tanks style.
Those are just a few thoughts, I'm sure the community will have lots more activities that can be accommodated for (if others share my wish for more social hubs)
