    A lot of people have been asking for a character deleter, but now I don't think that is enough. I think you should have a "Universe" that you make the settings for, so stuff like tiers and levels and whats unlocked and whats not and all that sort of stuff is set by you at the start, and then you make your characters to inhabit that universe. You can have multiple universes, multiple characters, and you can delete universes and characters. A lot of people want different things out of the game and this will help cater to many of them.

    As for multiplayer, your character will be tied to the universe of the server you inhabit, which will be set by the server master. You will not be able to take your single player characters into multiplayer.

    This sounds good, but no offense i havent seen people ask for a character deleter or anything like that in this thread, I dont think people want different things, just a reason to actually use different planets and get a sense of progression

    So Tiy just confirmed the tier system is just a placeholder:

    Well, that is a good news, but this is not the real issue here imo !

    Yup, you're actually right ;) but now we have to wait before we can make further suggestions. Maybe threat levels become completely obsolete if the "final system is not remotely close" to the current system.

    So has anyone done a threat 10 planet yet? I am currently on 6 .. however this system is just very poor. I basically did 1 planet each universe to get to next threat level.. the feel of progression is bland atm. Also I wish there was monster levels and hp x displayed under the health bar showing how much hp # is left

    I think you mean tier 10 planet ;) - I stopped at tier 6 because it just got extremely boring (missing content - beta). Monster levels and a more informative healthbar are really good ideas :)
    And what i really dislike right now is the fact that the star map is only a "supporting actor" in this space game. Maybe they should take a look at Mass Effect, where exploring the map and finding ship wrecks, captured ships etc. was quite fun. So instead of only having planets on the map they could add so much more stuff (warp portals ftw) which would give us a reason for exploring in space.

    haha I think they read your post because were going to get planet sized spaceships to explore.. that should be interesting!
