Though I&#8217;m to easily assume, we (as a species) know about this system (and made the terrain tool to work with the specific soil composition of each planet), in hopes to (eventually) colonize the system for the human race.<br \/>\n&#8211;In the intro scene, there seems to be a small nebula. Is this a sign we might be able to harvest resources in space?<br \/>\n-Black Hole-like structure (at the end of the intro scene) popping up (and forming) on the left side of Terran. Many theorize this could be a wormhole to another universe.<br \/>\n-A new &#8216;going down to Terran for the first time&#8217; animation, actually seeing the space station you&#8217;re leaving as you&#8217;re getting ready to burn through Terran&#8217;s atmosphere.<br \/>\n-Aggressive Flora on the surface (ones that will attempt to smash you into a fine paste).<br \/>\n-A new platform to store multiple enclosed 1 seat cockpits&#8230;? Is this a sign that you might be able to use these to launch back to the space station?<br \/>\n-Bore heads (for the large rover)! However, this could very well be the Drill (which already exists ingame). But maybe perhaps, there will be a new &#8216;bore mode&#8217; where the rover can change its pitch.<br \/>\n-The landing pad (that you get when you first touch down on Terran), is now a raised platform, and would be used for the shuttle.<br \/>\n-New platforms (one that looks like a house, and another that looks like an Inserter from <em>Factorio<\/em>.. possibly player housing, and automation).<br \/>\n-A possible story, with purple alien life forms (unknown if they&#8217;re hostile).<\/p>\n<p>So, this is exciting. Finally having a story&#8211; a purpose to this game, I&#8217;m looking forward to. I&#8217;m also interested in this player housing, and automation.<br \/>\nAs always, you can see the Astroneer Development Roadmap <a href=\"https:\/\/trello.com\/b\/UoZgKrd3\/astroneer-development-roadmap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>, where it mentions several of these things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is surprising news (even though Net Neutrality is dead).
