Vehicles for next stretch goal?

Roadmap says vehicles are 20%, but the description says only hoverbikes and mechs have been designed and animated, not implemented. Maybe a good stretch goal would be to have more vehicles on release and/or a customization system for vehicles where you can attach various weapons and armor pieces as well as paint jobs. No need to go crazy on paint, just like 2-5 sections you can change with a color palette like joints, decals, main body, windows, etc.

Anyhow I got a simple poll, this would give the devs and individuals in the community a feel for what the community as a whole wants as it pertains to this subject.

 

I don't want other strech goal x)

I just want to play the game finished and then if devs want to add some more, then there will some more



Vehicles gonna be in the finished game, it was confirmed

 

Vehicles are already going to be a part of the game.

Edit: Dang, mis-clicked when I added the image.

Anyways we do not have many details on the current vehicle system as it stands. As the roadmap does indeed indicate, that is an area that needs more work. Personally waiting to see what all is in by default before considering other suggestions.

 

I just pre-ordered and I am already happy. I hope they'll still add stuff later on with the game, this can be really huge!!!! I want to play this for like 300hrs at least

 

Yes, vehicles will be finished, but all we know is they have animations and sprites. The point of this thread is to ascertain if people want more focus on vehicles and less on the pet system. I feel that a guaranteed inclusion of a customization bay and vehicle parts you can craft to put on said vehicles would bring more to the game than pets, though I would enjoy both if both were added. So we see via this poll if people want vehicles to be focused on more before release or pets.

 

Well, would have preferred to get a larger sample-size in this poll but it seems the devs doubled down on the pets system according to the pre-order page: http://www.playstarbound.com/store/

Poll currently sits at 10-1-3, so out of 14 people 10 wanted more work to be focused on vehicles at this time.

 

They are already going to focus on the starter pet system. Theres little if not any chance they will change it. Who cares though, they will both be added eventually.

I wrote it prob like 14 times now, we should devote our effort for beta release!

 

31 500 of the 31 634 bakers want to play the game tomorrow. Doesn't mean it's a good idea :/

 

We need more ideas on how vehicles work. Personally, I'm hoping for vehicles that have passenger seats, aerial vehicles with passenger seats and some without and airships. Imagine picking up your squad/town mates/whatever, loading them up in your airship and plotting a course for your enemy's base then unleashing hell from the skies. Perhaps with drop-ropes.

Imagine having an airship that you could 'park' in the air and then walk around on then disembark from and go about your business on land before loading up your supplies and taking off back to your base with your buddies and the spoils of war you just earned.

 

The poll shows people want more vehicle focus. The sample size doubled since I last checked and it's pretty much at the same ratio as earlier, with ~70% wanting more focus on the vehicles. Not sure where you got the 'play the game tomorrow' thing.

 

lot of cool "imagine" you came up with, mate

 

Are custom vehicles something they've talked about?

 

Where's the stretch goal for hiring more help to get the beta out

Just kidding, I am patient.

Looking forward to pets, vehicles, whatever.

 

Why so much votes on vehicles? I think it could slow down the development.
The game coming sooner doesn't always mean the game is rushed.

 

well i would rather wait a bit more and have also cool vehicles and quest/customization on this, than play it sooner but without

 

Vehicles are already in the game as a core mechanic.

 

I'd be pretty mad if vehicles were a stretch goal seeing as how they are already going to be included in the game at release. It's not that I don't want them, they just wouldn't be something extra...

 

Well, honestly, I have no idea how far along vehicles are as of right now. It sounds like a lot of work to bring them up to a million dollar standard, but it would be cool. The pets they are currently suggesting sound like a totally new feature, so I am going to go with "no".

 

thats not much^^ i even played terraria for 300+ hrs and left4dead2 (because playing it semi-professional with a team in cups and tournaments) for like 2800 hrs
