StarMade's Future Development?

Slimsta · Dec 28, 2017

Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone can enlighten me what to expect from future releases. Would we be seeing more of a Social Game as in making Role play on servers easier? A bounty system? A Farming or Industry System? Give players more reason to expand their bases and expand the continued play value of the game?

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the game, it's my second favorite game just behind StarCitizen (Once they've fixed 3.0) Was just curious what to expect in the future.

Thanks!

Maybe toilets so that Dave can pee. And hats. :p

I hope they focus on crew after the power+weapons update. But I am not certain.
If they do it right, ever crew man needs at least access to a:
... toilet, shower, working station (can be a chair) with computer, bed, table with food/plants

They've posted numerous roadmaps. Check the dev stuff and sticky threads.

theyre going to make ship cores turn into ship chairs so the astronaut is always vulnerable without well though out protection during ship design and put an end to spaghetti once and for all

Expect massive exploits of one shoting the astronaut. If you truly have to pilot the ship as an astronaut. At least in my borg cube the dude sits in the middle of the ship.

This is still a minor issue. Apart from the usual suspects nobody uses this. On servers that have admin supervision. There used to be many such servers now it tends to be mostly a free for all. Since the more capable admins/server owners walked away from the game. The use of such ships would have resulted in a warning/ban.

Actually the chair plan was to make chairs a remote access to the core that you can have multiple of and place anywhere, yes the astronaut is vulnerable but its not an instant coreing of the ship.

Yes it'd be good if the pilot wasn't invisible inside a cube to fly ships. My mate loves space games and I know he would love StarMade but he refuses to give it chance after he saw the whole being inside a ship core and not actually climbing in to a chair with a HUD and all that. Really looking forward to the future development of StarMade. Hope to see some more models put in to the game to make things more realistic.

I also prefer StarMade over SpaceEngineers for the reason of building and the things you can do on here. Such as on SpaceEngineers the blocks are so big and ugly you can't create anything beautiful like you can on here. But anyway, future is looking bright for this game!

You may have seen these already, but there's the endgame document: StarMade Devblog - Endgame Document Pt. 3

Also, if I recall correctly, the Universe Update is to come right after both the Power and then Weapons Update. The Universe Update should add more depth to (or introduce) a couple of the gameplay aspects mentioned in the endgame document. For instance, exploration is going to be more worthwhile and a bit more exciting. =)

I hope they fix their shit... i've been playing this game far too long to watch it die because they can't get their heads out of the ground and act like developers and not ostrich...

I rest comfortably knowing that they do ever completely drop it, there's a good chance Schema would push the code to public domain after a bit and people could rebuild it.
