The game lacks space. Rocket construction.

The game is beautiful, and many see this game differently than the developers planned to make it, thanks to the gorgeous game settings. The game pleased everyone.
But when you have everything, the game becomes boring.
maybe you still look towards space travel, with a real solar system.
Even Minecraft has Galactic Craft and Extra Planets in the form of mods.
Maybe you also implement space in your game with a real solar system.
It will be something wrong. That will give the game a new ray of light.lin

Zombies... in space?

That's your suggestion?

 

[Kyonshi]

Can we just stick to Navezgane, on Earth? Its hard enough to program and stabilize an entirely destructible map, yet people still aren't happy and now ask to go for the entire solar system and beyond 😆

 

Please folks, inform yourself better about video game production and understand how complex it is. Or else, you could create your own extra-planetary mod?

7 light years to die, sequel to the popular 7 days to die game!

You already answered your own question, friend.

[Canute]

Wouldn't Zombies the perfect astronauts ?

They don't need oxygen, radiation don't harm them.

Just need a way to control/train them ! 🙂

Extending the voxel system into space would create some problems.  Mostly the unplayable kind.

[Gazz]

Empyrion struggles hard with 2-3 big ships in close vicinity.

But you can play this one if you want voxel ships in space.
Space Engineers doesn't have as much "game" around the fiddling with ship building.

 

[cgw]

In Empyrion I spawn 10 large ships and I don't notice any problems.
Problems can only be in multiplayer, there is a limit on the number of ships on the palanet.
I am not asking to make ships,
but only a rocket like in Stationeers, which will help you move from one card to another card. it's only 3 cubes. engine tank and cockpit.

If we remove all the animals and plants from the desert and paint the sky a little beige, we change the temperature. And remove the water. this is Mars.
 And now just change the color of Mars to gray and set the night sky here and the moon. I don't see anything complicated here.

Just don't want to develop 7 Days in this direction?

Another question is to make it all interesting, but it needs to make an effort.

And why is there a civilization with very earth-style POIs on Mars? (And yes, you need POIs if you don't want to change the game completely)

 

If you want to do it right, you would have to make mars-style POIs and roads for Mars and maybe alien-style POIs for the next planet ... Not complicated but another 4 years of development to make the neccessary amount of POIs

I need to comment again about a few things

First: the game engine can barely handle 20 zombies on screen at the same time. Space would be very empty and boring.

Second: what the hell do you expect for a $10 to max $25 game? 

 

Stick with zombies, improve what can be improved with minimal hours, get the game done and release.

Start working on something new and fun. 

[BFT2020]

In my mind, I just heard

 

 

ZOMBIES IN SPAAAAACE!

[Urban Blackbear]

Maybe just go play Surviving Mars?

[Mastermind]

I just don't see how that would improve the game...   Sorry, just I don't see it.

In fact, space is very empty and boring.  It's the stuff in space (mostly very far apart) that makes it interesting.

7 days to Factorio?

Nowhere to run to, no space travel...

What happens when you send a chunk of rotting flesh into space in a rocket?

We secretly were trying really hard, but we just can't get the fuel mixture right.

that and i could totally see me and you completely destroying space XD

[TWORDY]

It`s enough that my PC struggles in Navezgane... no need for enhanced 0.5-15 frames per second drama in voxel Universe.

Not to inspire the conversation, but I am suddenly reminded of the incidents that put billionaires in near orbit.

I think it would be an amazing implementation for the endgame when the game goes gold.

 

In the dev livestream they were talking about meeting the duke and what not, being able to leave the planet and go to a government safe zone on a different planet would be amazing.

 

It would be rather interesting since the game Outriders was based on resources running out and they had to go to a completely different planet which had earth-like resources to rebuild.

 

So it wouldn't be ENTIRELY impossible the devs have an endgame (or modders) that the player leaves the planet in a cutscene to live on another one. Just unlikely, but a genuinely good concept in endgame terms.
