ATMLVE Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Welcome to the forums! The complete destruction of planets, by any means, is not something that the developers are interested in allowing to happen. NPCs and aliens, too, are something the developers are trying to stray away from. They want the game to be a civilization simulator, and throwing in a giant NPC creature that destroys the work of players goes against their aim. It would be fun for a typical game, but for what the developers are trying to do, I doubt something like this will make it in to the game.

May I add, giant ship eating monsters would be pretty immersion breaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonVolcanov Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 May I add, giant ship eating monsters would be pretty immersion breaking. True. Maybe they can have it as an event for first year after release or something. (Without the construct eating part though.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurock Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 a giant space creature that roams the stars and eats ships and/or planets you know somthing that you need to team up to fight No. (for reasons already stated) However I am all for a large organic life form that roams the stars that people can attack if they so wish but actually is not aggressive.. and have others frown on them because the creature is harmless.

gyurka66 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I support this but only if the Space Creature only attacks when provoked. If there are no goals nobody will team up properly with anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5p34k3r Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Perhaps if the giant entity was in a part of space predetermined for galactic events. Although, people could still unintentially stray into it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats just the way this game seems to be set up. gyurka66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord_Void Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I'm just here to pet the space whales. Maybe I'll build a petting zoo for them and charge people admission. JNDuval and Kurock 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynkxDev Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I raise this same conversation at last time I was here, I think the devs should implement a giant monster to act as a big boss, that spawns randomly very few times ... a monster that lots of players os different, until enemy groups must cooperate to destroy. and after his death, (at the end of war break time) probably a mass PVP would start with factions fighting to defend their miners while they scavenge the rare resources and mats that could be only fond inside his body.....

As last time, I object. As last time, this is a bad, standard mechanic for bad gameplay. As last time, it only favors players who participate in that "raid" Kurock and Ben Fargo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The material mined from inside the body would need some use to be worth it. Which could cause imbalance issues because once a faction has it no other faction could have the material in till the next spawns which could take a long time. But If the material is not good for anything, i mean whats the point. Just having normal materials spawn inside it would mostly fix the problem. However I really do not see a point in this feature, and think they should spend there time on something more useful like more building tools and elements. Edit: I really think this feature is just to gimmicky to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yamamushi Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 It was just a concept trailer, but the movie is still in production afaik. Here's some more concept art from it: https://twitter.com/RuairiRobinson/status/578748458602893312 https://twitter.com/RuairiRobinson/status/577670651214860288 Hotwingz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead there should be a very little chance like 1% when exploring a new system that you find something big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinosaurus Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 I support this idea, as long as it can't eat planet, whole ships in one bite, and is fairly balanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
