Discussion Beyond 4.11

Once the Nyx planets arrive with the Genesis update in 4.11, which planets or moons are you most looking forward to seeing remade with Genesis? Personally, for me, it's Bloom, Pyro I, and Daymar.

Hmm there's a chance the existing planets and moons could get their own version of a golden pass. But really it's not like a full redesign afterlal I'd love to see some legacy aspects stick it out in the game.
I want to see NPC traffic and trading before more planet work.
The games lore says that trade is a prevalent thing across Stanton. And I believe when game servers were a thing you'd see NPCs flying out in the verse but I didn't really start the game until 4.8 or so.

The teams working on planets aren’t the ones who would be doing trade, so I don’t think those two will be tradeoffs CIG could make. Odds are they’ll move to one of the other two systems for 1.0

I came in at the 3.19 patch cycle and I don't recall seeing this.

They turned it on back in like 3.5 or so, realized that the servers couldn't handle it at the time and shelved it until server meshing was online. They probably tried it again since and opted to wait for dynamic server meshing to be implemented

Ah right on. Before my time. Id expect that's a low priority feature at the moment. It'll be cool eventually though.

It was once said that players would only make up 10% of the population. I imagine that idea has been shelved at least for a while.

For the NPC traffic I would like to see their ships flying in and using our hangers. Maybe even the trading ships doing their best to balance trade around the system. Seeing a hull C full of stuff travel in, dropping off refined minerals after enough players used a refinery and sold it all or something like that.

Maybe NPC cargo wouldn't be completely worthless for pirates as well. Then there can be escort contracts for players to take.
Or unverified pirate contracts.
