    This is not Star Wars. If you think everything looks the same after a few hours.. a few hours(?) then this game isn't for you.

    They've discussed in the past that the first worlds they introduce are going to be more dead, barren worlds. Over time, as they improve the tech, they'll start introducing worlds with full atmospheres and flora, etc. Eventually, down the road you'l find cities and civilizations on them. They're doing it intelligently.. building the technology and releasing things as they can, rather than trying to do it all at once.

    Yeah, and they don't need over a hundred million dollars to do it. It's amazing what happens when money is spent on game development instead of fancy trailers and celebrity voiceovers.

    AN' DERE AIN'T NO SUCH FING AS ENUFF DAKKA, YA GROT! Enuff'z more than ya got an' less than too much an' there ain't no such fing as too much dakka. Say dere is, and me Squiggoff'z eatin' tonight!

    We are born of the blood. Made men by the blood. Undone by the blood. Our eyes are yet to open. FEAR THE OLD BLOOD.

    Why we are still waiting for SC?, RSI gonna need like a decade to do something like this, and is just the 1st step of the Horizon season wich also include, The milticrew update, FPS and Capital ships (Controlled by players), with fighters. I mean, everything that SC has promised, but in a bigger scale.
