Horizons What is your most wanted features for future updates?

short term:
- Being able to tweak every stats in my ship precisely
- cockpit customization
- Dedicated pirate ships
- Alliance ships
- Improvement for basic professions (bounty hunter that actually "hunt" and more explorer scanners/mechanics)

Long term:
- Anything horizon related (atmosphere, water exploration...)
- USSs being erased forever (i hate any kind of RNG)
- build my own secret base in an asteroid
- First person with a katana, with an active parry system for swords, backstabs, parkour physical abilities, and stealth mechanics.

trade
It would be very welcome to see all commodities vary in price to the point where any of them are viable for trade. For instance, Grain never gets higher than Gold- even in a famine?
That alone would transform the relative values of commodities to make mining, piracy, and short haul trades totally different.

The code to drive prices of rares is already in place. Rares have an enormous fluctuation in price. That is the sort of fluctuation we should see on things like Water, or Bertrandite that nobody ever trades.

Black Markets
At present, these are buyers of stolen goods. They work well for that. But that isn't a Black Market. Thats a Fence!
They should be renamed to suit. And actual Black Markets need to be instituted. Parallel economies, where illicit goods are trafficked at high prices. So goods need not one tag ( illegal) - they need TWO: ( Stolen) and (Illicit), in order to have Smuggling emerge as a better profession.

Piracy & Salvage
in addition to the Materials drop on killing an enemy, we could see a salvageable drop, that could be directly sold.
 
submarine capabilities for our ships:

comes into my mind every time i discover a waterworld.

Yes! Now THAT would be cool!

The idea reminds me of the "Flying Sub" from the old 60s TV show "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea". :)

Would be cool to just dive down towards the ocean surface and SPLASH!! Be underwater and flying towards an undersea base.

But unfortunately... This is WAY TOO COOL to be something Frontier would ever consider doing. :(

Changing the color of the HUD would be nice.

No doubt!

I messed around with the current mods to the color values for a few days, but that only produces a somewhat half baked result. They have designed the HUD so that the only color setting that works across everything in the cockpit is the ORANGE they picked.

WHY orange?

Have never been able to understand the logic behind using such an ugly color combo.

My belief is the reason for the orange displays is Braben is showing his age and fondness for the old gas plasma screens... :D

YAY - the iOmega Zip drive was quite high tech at this time.

I would like to visit a Space Museum....were we can see 'old' Spacecrafts like the Space Shuttle....and maybe walking around with Avatars.

I want the planet to be detailed like NMS does it. No it doesn't have to be colorful, and no it doesn't have to have animals and stuff, just the general look of the terrain which looks really nice
 
This...
npc stuff

so npc wingmen
npc srvs on planets
npc crewmembers


and this...
EVA for exploration of ship wreckage, hull repair, getting knocked about by the rotating section of a starport. I don't require walking yet. Just let me float. And weld broken stuff.

Also more variation in the system security levels, as well as security filtering in the gal map, and gal map route plotter integration with the filters (so that it only plots through filtered systems if desired)

Oh, and before I forget, more exploration...
pulsars (that actually pulse), BH gamma ray bursts, accretion discs, comets, etc...


Geez, now looking back at this post, I feel like I'm asking quite a bit. :eek:
 
System State, Government and Security level to be displayed in the Cockpit somewhere.

Plus cool astronomical things Accretion Discs etc...
 
Cool ideas so far.

In terms of what I'd like to see, its specific to the atmospheric planetary landings.

I'd love to see submersible SRV types such as the following;
Tank type SRV (heavy artillery)
Jetbike type SRV
Submarine type SRV (for use in lakes and oceans for deep exploration - new rare materials can only be found in ocean)

In terms of the atmospheric planetary features it would be cool to have;

Pressure simulation (planets with atmospheres have already been rated on pressure etc so it would be good to simulate the differences when flying in different pressures)
Weather effects (cloud/wind/rain/thunder/lighting/storms/turbulence) and be cool to have rain droplets on your ship canopy.
Volcanic activity (ground/underground/underwater)
Animals (air/land/sea)
 
- Getting out of the chair IVA and EVA
- Atmospheric landing
- Detailed ingame information database
- Explorable large shipwrecks and station ruins/wrecks - space and surface (walk around in them and search for stuff)
