    On the topic of catalogs for creatures and such, I think it would be really nice if we could name creatures ourselves. For all the Platybears and Squirrelywoks and Marshmallow Puffs, it would be cool to be able to designate them with a name over their health bar after we name in the log book.
    I enjoy getting a bit rp-ish in this game as well, so it would be nice if we had a Captains log that would record a standardized "Stardate" that would timestamp our entries and let us enter in whatever we wanted.
    Just a couple thoughts, and REALLY excited for the changes!

    It's nice that that's being planned, but it would be completely shocking if it WASN'T. I'd like to see that be made a priority in the next patch or so...

    Best $15 I ever invested in anything and you're not even out of the earliest beta, just wish I could have afforded a higher tier.

    Wow. That sounds amazing. Particularly looking forward to ship size upgrades.

    That does make more sense... But still they are completely different races, so they would ideally have their own advantages and weaknesses. Regardless, I have no clue on how to modify anything so I'll just wait for a decent mod to come out that relates to what I prefer.

    That is great you want more bosses because the four bosses in the game are only the tip of the iceberg so to speak, the bosses are nowhere near done and eventually there will be more, and the ones we have will have ai overhauls done. This is early beta though and they are focusing on balancing out the lower tiers first. (If memory serves it was said a boss would be inbetween each sector or tier, and for now only the first few have been implemented with sector x just being the bulk sector until more stuff is balanced and implemented, but if sectors are to be removed eventually I imagine the roles of bosses will remain important.)

    Thank you for making such an awesome game. My friend just bought three copies for him, me, and another friend and we plan to enjoy it to its full extent. I hope that this journey will be long and full of adventures!

    AKA no melee skills involved. Darn :I. I'm holding out for this game until melee combat mechanics are implemented or at least until it's confirmed by a dev that they will at some point in the future be implemented.

    Actually if it really is like FTL and pirates can beam onto your ship, or conversely you can beam onto their ship, then there'd be plenty of melee to be had.

    I'm not so worried about the possibility of melee happening, I'm more concerned of the quality of the melee when it does happen.

    Starbound is already amazing. I cannot wait for these new features! It is so ambitious! I'm most excited about multiplayer features!
