    Hey,

    So forum-goers, I thought it would be fun if everyone got an idea of what their ideal planet would be, the features you use don't even have to be confirmed! Just give everyone a vivid paragraph of what your dream world in starbound is like!

    Mine:
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    A huge planet with an ocean spanning the entire surface. It has a super volatile seabed so volcanoes are always popping up and leaving islands, that get eroded after a few in game days due to size. One big landmass sits in the middle of the planet, rich in jungle life, massive caves to explore, leading right to the planets core.

    Under the ocean there is a civilisation that existed once before the planet was flooded, the volcanoes destroy it more and more with each eruption, so if you want its treasures, you have to move fast!

    on the mainland I have a dock with a fishing boat, that I use to go out and catch food before nightfall, and when the surface gets really dangerous due to high tides and monsters, I use my hoverbike to fly up to the floating island hovering over the ocean, and take refuge on the old castle on top, the only surviving remnant of the old world that was flooded.

    /shades,
    now that people, is a planet worth calling home.

    A planet that was formed out of the space junk thrown away by space travelers. Not a huge planet but the people there have made the best of what they have. :3

    A planet completely covered with water. I would have my base underwater inside glass spheres. On the surface, I'd have a floating base and an ICE CASTLE for my penguin/lizard army.

    AND LOTS OF WILD LIFE!

    Hmmm Well my perfect planet

    Would be a huge diverse thing. Robots sectors and snakes and reptiles of all sorts. Robot snakes as well! Maybe even some narwhals!

    As for backstory..... The snakes and the robots are fighting and as they fight the robots abduct innocent creatures and turn them into robots so it is a constant battle between machine and nature. Oh I love Duality. It's the best ^^;

    My perfect planet aye? well. Hmm hard one... One without war wouldn't be fun so...
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    A planet with vivid wildlife, and which is a sub-mammal-settled, extremely technologically advanced planet which had been separated from most other races for billions of years. the entire surface of the planet would be covered with industrialized infrastructure, piplines, factories, mines, refineries and processing plants.

    The world would have extremely high gravity wells that appear randomly, but are regulated with technology designed by the planets rulers.
    The rulers themselfs being short because of evolution and the gravity wells shaping them that way.

    Of course these "sub-mammals" or Xenos would have to be purged in the Emperors name. And the planet taken for the Imperium of Man. It would then become a hive world, where millions of humans live. The technology would if deemed by the Magos heretical be destroyed. (All though the technology would help stablise the planet more, given that I assume they wouldn't. )

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Doesn't sound like a rosy little planet does it?

    As I posted on another similar topic,

    Imagine a tropic beach paradise. The warm ocean air touching your face and the smell of salty sea water gripping your nostrils. You can do anything you want here. Noone to bother you. and of course this song would have to be played in the background.



    That would be the perfect planet...

    Don't you agree?

    An eternally night snow covered planet with high precipitation. Until at least 2 out of those 3 demands are met, I will not settle in on a home.

    A tropical world full of palm trees, sand, lots of water, some underwater caves, all seemingly untouched by human hands.

    Dense deciduous forest, constant cloud cover, frequent heavy precipitation with lots of mammalian life. That'd be nice...

    A completely destroyed one would suit me the best, a destroyed landscape with the cause of a huge disaster from space, like a meteorite, solar flare or supernova!
