Just look at those mountain ranges in the distance.
I know the planet tech has caused some changes, and the planets do feel flatter than before, and I miss the sharp edged, straight drop canyons currently in Horizons, but images like the above just look so good. I do wonder whether the flatness feeling is because we are flying ships at several kilometres above the surface, once you get down there, there are some wonderful vistas to be had.
Fantastic shots, can't wait to get out there this weekend
Thanks! I actually think the same. Of course planet engine needs tweaks but a lot of that feeling of flatness comes because because we usually fly at airline cruise altitudes. Several of the mountains that we see as small are actually several kilometers high and it's not until you land that you realize how big they are indeed. However a touch of more dramatic variation in scale and colour wouldn't hurt and I take what we have now as a first iteration as it happend back in the day in Horzons.
EDIT: Also I think part of the problem with people's reaction comes because many people hardware limitations prevent them from being able to set terrain to ULTRAFORCAPTURE and really enjoy the power of the new planet tech. With that option enabled is when it really shines and becomes spectacular, so I guess behind all what we have is the need for better optimization.

You just found the Timanfaya national park in Lanzarote.This planet has some major dermatological issue.
Those pimples are... bigger then I expected.
That looks like photographs from the set of 'Jason and the Argonauts'
Somehow managed to get the DSS to glitch out and render the surface data under the terrain while in orbital cruise.
Not a genuine water world at all, but a taster of what might be...
Thats a cool pic
This is getting annoying. Landed on a planet that indicated 2 Biologicals. After scanning it only wanted to show me minor wreckages & such. But I couldn't get any indicators to scan these for Codex.
Now reading I guess I was supposed to scan them with the scanner thing.
Oh well. At least I got a nice SS.
127 jumps to get an Explorer Suit.

Check this photo, this is Mona Pearson, Apex Shuttle driver. 5 days she is circling in HIP 105557.
She tried the option to "recovery to orbit", multi crew death, nothing is working. She sent email to her boss for help. nothing...
Can anyone from Fdev talk to the database guy to reposition cmdr Quadmo ? that will be really cool. 5 days.... and run the following
Update ApexDriver
SET QI = QI * 1000000000
where name = 'Mona Pearson';
or just update my cmdr position to anywere. I think the recovery to orbit does not work because I have no ship in this system....
