The Dangerous wish thread

I'd like to see a satellite deployment system. Where you buy and drop a satellite around a planet or star. Getting a visual from it's on board camera onto a screen in your cockpit, via a subspace link.
I'd use such satellites for observation of objects during exploration where returning to for a visual update would be impractical. Such satellites could also be targeted by other players perhaps. :rolleyes:

Uhh I like that one, please make it possible FDEV :)
 
Small Fighter operation, with system based missions, or perhaps through the use of an external carrier mechanic. In a few years of course. :D

Yes I like this one as well.
 
I'd like to spend time as a Rock Hermit and mine some rocks.
Maybe have the companionship of a deranged old droid like the guy on the mothball asteroid in Excession.
 
Satellites probes have been mentioned not only by forum members but david braben himself and may make an appearance around gamma iirc

Or did I just dream it???

Seriously, i'm sure one of the development team mentioned there being satellites/probes in the final release.
 
when we are able to walk around planets I'd like to stealth my ship so that it wont get blown up by any passers by ;) or stolen for that matter ;)

the real question is, how do we survive first person? doubt we will have an escape capsule strapped to our backs to get back to our ship ;)

Erm. Backup clones? Your memories are stored on a very tiny escape capsule, capable of flying home, or sprout tiny legs and a little drill, in case it needs to get out from whatever was eating the commander? ;)
 
I want crushingly heavy gravity on planets that have more mass than earth, so I can only walk around using an exoskeleton. Which corrodes in minutes on planets with acidic atmospheres and melts in minutes on planets like Venus.
I want explosive sublimation of hydrogen ice under my too-warm boots on Kuiper belt objects, putting me in a slowly decaying orbit dumping my body while forming a shallow crater.
I'd like my ship to sink through ethane suddenly melting under the heat of my engines when I land on what looked like an inviting flat surface.
Have my instruments zapped in the radiation belts around gas giants and my enemies swept down by their gravity because their bigger ships are slowed below escape velocity by the planet's upper atmosphere.
Flush my ship's toilet on an obscure asteroid to claim it as mine. Softly touch my Sidewinder's windshield against the dust on a tiny comet. Scoop up some water ice from Enceladus with my cargo scoop to make my tea. Find some fossils on a distant alien world...

This is a superb idea. Maybe some kind of navigation buoy that other commanders pay a"royalty" to use ?
 
So you want to name an Alien Planet?

I want to park an Anaconda on the far side of a moon, orbiting a ringed planet in a nameless system where nobody goes, get up out of my chair, make my way through the ship to the lower front observation deck, crack open a (real) beer and raise a toast to the beautiful (in-game) sunrise.
