Here are the upcoming ship-updates

he is allready working on it

 

They look like shake weights.

 

Soooooo with ships getting that big they better have a really good reason to have bases on planets, lol.

 

Maybe if you're of canine heritage. >_>

 

By the ghost of Robert Shaw, that is a massive cruiser at the bottom.

Why bother building any kind of storage on terra firma when you've got that behemoth mooring above?

 

Looks good.

The bigger the ship, the more fuel it should cost to travel. Make it a tradeoff between size and cost.

 

*imagining what the Glitch ship looks like fully upgraded*

.....Oh god I want this.....NOW!

 

Your other characters can't access each other's ships. They can all share a planetary base. Even with that much space on your ship to do whatever you want with, it's still more useful if you have multiple characters to keep everything on a planet, especially with the beam to home planet function on the teleporter.

 

but planets are also currently saved to characters, it seems.

 

Nope. Planets are saved separately. All your characters are in the same universe and can visit the same planets and see the changes the others have made. Build a base and throw some items in a chest, your other character can visit that planet, access that base, and use those chests and items.

 

I am also hoping they give us a real reason to build an on world base.. building for buildings sake isnt really enough IMO

 

the image doesnt work for me... I guess Im lucky that I will get to see the upgrades when its out, but I want to see them now
anyone care to explain what its like/how its different?

 

That is so sweet. I'm excited

 

They first 4 are boss, after that they become too horizontally symmetrical and look odd (you can see that they begin to almost look like top-down views).

Consider some of the ships from films / other games etc:

The warhammer 40k ships look ace because they have a different line of symmetry and build upwards rather than both upwards and downwards.

Just my opinion of course and it's probs both a WIP and just the human style.

 

Huh. Neat. Not really all that useful, but neat. (mostly because you have to either set it as home for all your characters or type in the co-ordinates each time.)

 

So people are looking for a reason to build a base on the planet, and the response is getting bigger ships, big enough to continually build up the ship as the base. Hmmmm...

 

Damn nice!

 

Sweet. If these upgrades get implemented, I can make easily make my ship my main base! Have a nice storage area in one part, a garden in another, a crafting area, and even sleeping quarters for my character and anyone else who may be traveling the stars with me!

 

Finally.. Somewhere to store my penis.

 

Simple: Teleport pads!

Either that, or this design is still be worked on and they'll add gaps to jump up/down to.
