I wasn't quite sure whether someone else had thought of these, or which section I should post this in. But I decided to share this idea anyway, and I hope others find it entertaining. Danger Planets are ones with extremely aggressive wildlife. The native creatures will attack your base in waves from time to time. Putting down security cameras will let you know when they're attacking, but those who lack such a defense could be in trouble. The enemies will break through your walls in an attempt to destroy all your expensive machinery, so be careful! Scanning planets will tell you the dominant (most common) biome, whether it's a Danger Planet, any native wildlife (if you have encountered and scanned that specific species before), as well as temperature, atmosphere density, and rate of minerals (a general number defining how common useful resources are on that planet). Scanners are expensive and take a lot of power, so don't overdo it. Angering civilizations that are peaceful be default will NOT turn the whole species against you; only for that planet. These were just a few ideas.
Yeah, it sounds cool. I didnt expected to explore universe without shooting something from time to time. It could be planets with special rare recourses so you have to fight for them. Just like in terraria: the deeper you dig the better minerals you find and the more dangerous monsters you encounter.
I like the idea of separating planets like this with more peaceful ones. People who always suggest block-breaking mobs and huge zombie raids or whatever they want would prefer this planet. Think about the chaos of a max level danger planet on multiplayer! Perhaps some Danger planets could have planet PvP turned on, (Or just some select planets in general) so if you enter them on a server, everywhere is free game for pvp! (I think PvP is supposed to only be on Aestroids, but this could encourage other fun stuff) By the way, what would security cameras do extra? there isn't any LoS or foreground in this game (confirmed on blue's list of stuff I think, they probably won't change this) unless you mean they'll attack while you're not on the planet... Which might be a bit hard to do technically.
sounds like your looking for the threat level 100 planets in my honest opinion. for those not aware; a planets are given an assessed 'threat level' and threat lvl 100 planet will be extremely difficult, even with all endgame items. although no details on what makes these planets difficult (at least to my knowledge). and some of these ideas (the wildlife invasion in particular) would be an interesting concept to see on these planets.
I think this may have been posted before (or perhaps just discussed), but I like the idea anyway. Would be very fun to travel to a Danger Planet and attempt to 100% conquer/tame it.
