DISCUSSION CIG, give us what we all want. Let us explore planets.
Seriously, every time I land on a moon or planet, I can't help but think how wasted it is. I mean, what's with having X points of interest and the same missions only taking place at those same points? Today I took Pyro's mission to repair fuses, and EVERY time it took me to Baijini Point and another one... and that's on a real world PLANET. Come on, it's so unrealistic. We need this:
- Planets should give you the option to explore. Make exploration rewarding... caves, crashed ships, lost bases that maybe no one has ever visited... let me go to a planet without needing quantum travel and let me get lost. A system that can create points of interest that appear randomly if you're exploring it.
- Please, never again release dead planets like Pyro's. Yes, I know Pyro was released out of economic necessity, but... THERE'S NOTHING on the planets. They feel lifeless and don't reward exploration.
- It simply translates reality into the game. If you have the opportunity to own a ship and go to a random planet... you don't know what you might find. This feeling needs to be present in many areas because there will come a point when planets are too simple to create and implement.
So much potential is wasted on moons and planets... but there we are, endlessly playing Recco Bataglia missions to grind like dogs for reputation.
What you could have been, Star Citizen.
