    Only what I've paid for: Beta access and the full game by the end of 2013.
    Sooner is better, but not required.

    Beta when it is done.
    Possibly more streams when they have time.

    Purely selfish? Ice weapons in the game and a demonstration of them. NPC quests to hunt dangerous life forms on other worlds. :metroid:

    1. I would like to see what makes Starbound different form Terraria. I did not watch that many streams, but it was all about showing armor, weapons, sitting in one place and shoot horribly underpowered enemies. What is the storyline doing (okay, I understand, spoiler-alert), maybe some sidequests.
    2. A little information, update Roadmap :)

    But what I really want to see is 1. - why Starbound is an improvement to Terraria. Are there civilizations I can meet on planets, secrets I can discover (an old, abandoned and forgotten city, awesome technologies which teach me to create new stuff, crashed alien ships which I can repair, upgrades in every possible form) etc. I know this is a lot, but it is somehow what I expect from Starbound.. because I do not need a Terraria in space, only to be able to travel around.

    Notice: Before you flame the ever loving crap out of me for this, the topic of the thread is "What do you want from the dev's". This is what i would like.

    Update or remove Roadmap. If removed, replace with a text checklist that anyone with a keyboard and a few minutes can update. This can be done by the community rep or even a forum mod who was given the instruction to do so.

    Some form of heads up on beta. If it's going to be sometime soon, let us know. If it's going to be cutting it close to the end of 2013, say so.

    Alter how you'd like to do beta. Finish up the features that are close to complete and give a beta that will be updated with features as they finish. A shocking awe inspiring release is awesome and all, but not when preceded with tons of waiting and silence. It's also nice to play around with something rather than nothing.

    Don't want a game release date. Games are better when they're not rushed.

    But, I will very carefully say that I sure wouldn't mind a release date for the beta. I know beta is generally reserved for feature complete products, but it doesn't have to strictly follow that rule to the letter. I've been through several beta phases where game features were added or changed. The old "it's done when it's done" philosophy is nice and I'd hate to change it, but some part of me still wants a reasonable, visual goal.

    Think at this point is not what the devs can do for us but what we can do for them

    Well there's over a million things we've done for them so far. And without a beta there's no real input we can give about the game either. Sooooo... What can we do?

    I just want them to work on the game to the best of their ability. Sure, I would appreciate the roadmap being updated or them releasing a bit more information on things, but I'm not going to tell them to hurry up or expect them to do more than they probably can at the moment.

    All that matters is that they are working on the game.

    But man am I antsy

    I want them to live their life, doing what they love.
    That's all I want of them and for them... And it's the same I want for everyone.

    I want new info/updates & maybe videos (not the streams).
    And some info on BETA date (quarter or something).

    Hopefully you don't live under any government on Earth if that's what you want for everyone.

    I would like to seem some more updates on melee combat. I can't seem to find a whole lot of information on it. It seems like the devs are all about the ranged combat. If this game really is more designed to be ranged with minimal melee then I will accept that, but I just want to know what the plan is for melee. Is is going to be as fleshed out as ranged combat seems to be. You always here about the awesome mods for guns and cool new types of ranged weapons. So far all I saw melee wise is "maybe flaming weapons or something...". It seems like melee is getting a little ignored. Like I said if that is the way they intend to take the game, as in mainly ranged with minimal melee, I am totally cool with that. I would just like the info on it.
