In discord, some people talked about things that maybe will need more explanations from the devs, and could be discussed by the community.
Those are some of them:
1-Buying expansions (episodic content).
Recently I discovered this about Em8er: “Pay once, no subscription fee. Pay for episodic expansions. In-game store with cosmetics and convenience, but not power.”
So, what kind of content will be included in base game and what kind of content will be available in the expansions?
For the devs:
What will the kind of content be in those expansions?
Will we have some zones only available for those who buy the expansions?
Or some types of omniframes or weapons/abilities?
For the community:
I’m a little concerned about this, mostly because I don’t know what kind of content will be in this.
What do you think about this?
What kind of content do you think that should be free and what kind should be included in expansions?
And at the same time, be fair with the players that don’t buy those expansions?
What kind of content don’t you want in those expansions?
2- Family and/or friend packs.
There are several of the backer packs that include multiple copies of the final game.
So after the game releases, could we have packs, like family or friends packs, with several copies of the game in the same unit, with a lower price per copy and/or some extra stuff physical and/or digital?
For the devs:
Could it be done?
Is it planned?
Do you want to do this?
If yes, how do you want to do this or what do you want to be included in those packs?
For the community:
I think that it could be a very interesting idea, not only to make some players save money in multiple copies and/or get some extras, but to spread the word for friends.
What do you think about this?
What could be done?
What do you like to be included in those packs?
Which kind of packs do you want?
3-Pets and their usefulness.
We will have the THMPR as a pet to make the mining event and help fighting, and some people talked about if we could have more pets to do the same or more things than be only cosmetic.
For the devs:
What do you think about this?
Will other pets be cosmetic only or could they do other useful things, other kind of events, or social events?
Will the THMPR be the only pet that make the mining event or will we have more pets that do that event or other kinds of mining events?
For the community:
Some players talked about it in the discord and forums, if we could have pets to do some things like combat, events, minigames, social… because cosmetic only pets are boring.
What do you think about this?
What kind of usefulness do want for pets?
What kind of features or actions you don’t want for them?
Do you want to take care of them, raise them, train them, breed them…?
4-Social activities:
What should players do when they are at bases with other players resting and not in the open world shooting stuff?
For the devs:
What do you think about it?
What do you want to do?
What don’t you want to do?
For the community:
Some people gave ideas in discord and forums about things like: racing with pets/special omniframes/vehicles, fishing, cards mini-games…
But at the same time, something that don’t make the game losing its focus (like some games out there where the secondary activity took place from the primary one for several reasons), or the game be only known because its secondary activities.
(E.g.1: I’m looking at you Fortnite, where many players think that it’s only the BR mode and don’t know about the “Save the world” mode.)
(E.g.2 Or the old game with nsfw content called “Venus Rising” where it was planned to have a good story and lore, adventure, game mechanics, RPG… and the secondary activity was to have “sex” with other players or npcs, but the company almost only advertised about the last thing, so many players only went to the game about it, and not to play the game… and the game died…)
What do you think about this?
What kind of social activities do you think that are important to be in the game?
Which of them do you like?
Which of them don’t you like?
5-NSFW content:
Mr. Grummz said: “I am planning on implementing a "filter mode" so people who don't want to see flagged skins can filter them to defaults.”
So, what kind of nsfw content are we talking about?
Only appearance stuff like skins, customizations... or some kind of other things like a marriage system, nsfw emotes, nsfw minigames...?
For devs:
What kind of content do you want to put?
What kind of content could you add later?
For the community:
I don’t mind to have it in the game if it’s well done, and don’t fall in the previous category mistakes like taking the focus from the game or make some players come only for it.
What do you think about it?
What kind of content do you want?
What kind don’t you want?
What kind don't you mind that could be available?
What do you think about it?
Those are some of them:
- Buying expansions (episodic content).
- Family and/or friend packs.
- Pets and their usefulness.
- Social activities.
- NSFW content.
