2: Citizens is a term we are using for both players and NPC characters. Updates to player citizens will involve tracking their progress in the game. It will also play a part in how they connect with other players online etc.
3: For now, there is no story that you will play through. There will be lore, and we have the basics of it laid out. You will come across information in the game, but it is yet to be seen if there will be any sort of major storyline to go through.
4: The only other game mode I can think of is the battle mode. It will likely be refined in the future. Aside from that I have no knowledge of any additional game modes.
1: For now it is solely for the purpose of protecting ships. There are no current plans to incorporate stars into any mechanics.If you guys don't mind, I would like to ask a few questions about some things that seem to be overlooked;
1. It is mentioned in the timeline that there will eventually be heat shielding so that we may get closer to stars. Is this because there will also be resources that are very valuable in them, so that we may destroy them, so we can admire them, or for any other reason?
2. I've seen a few places marked for citizens/citizen updates. Is this referencing the ability to "become a citizen" of a civilization, the possibility of jobs, or implementation of the registry/forum data into the game?
3. Very sparsely, I've noticed some story points to be added. I'm not asking for any major spoilers, but, will the story follow a single person, a group of people, several groups, or will it be a "general history of the universe?"
4. And finally, I'm not sure if it's at the end of Alpha or later Beta, but I noticed that a new game mode was planned. Any hints as to what it'll be like?
