    Please add Hold to Aim Down Sight for FPS

    Please add a Hold option in addition the current Toggle for ADS before you guys slow development too much. Pretty please! FPS players will rejoice.

    Warp trace

    Which means everyone will be rich, and thus, being rich will mean nothing, and everyone even attempting to fight each other is doing so not for any gain, but just to waste credits - no meaning behind the conflict (such as securing some point of interest or controlling a resource hub or...

    Save everything and lose interest

    Yes, because you spent hundreds of hours in the SSC - just like everyone else - without actually playing the game. You were sort of forced into this instead of being tempted to pirate someone else's ship, vs. just blowing it up, because maybe their ship looks better than yours. Yes, because...

    Warp trace

    ... Yes. It devalues all the effort. It's why PvE doesn't "work" because with a flood of resources, and no resource-sink (resources leaving the economy), no one buys the material, and you also have no use for "unlimited" resources. It not only devalues your effort, but everyone else's. Keep in...

    Save everything and lose interest

    Knowing your ship and all its workings is devalued the more "click a button to repair" is added. This means less pride in your own ship, less value in having accessible ships, and less desire to do any manner of combat repair because "open tool, press button" is the repair process. A lot of...

    Warp trace

    Yes. My point is: even though this is wrong and has "impending doom" written on it for the future of an engaged playerbase - because players, PvE or PvP alike, need some risk/reward mechanic to enjoy a game - this "riskless gameplay" seems to be the direction the devs are headed in. Capital...

    Warp trace

    I understand your desire to hunt capital ships, and perhaps some marker or even wormhole could exist for a few hours between the departure and arrival coordinate for military ships, however, when it comes to civilian ships, it seems the intention is for "a state of zero risk and extremely high...

    Question to the devs about unfair stations and capital ships use.

    I expected station cubes to be much like the Tool Cupboard in Rust. Place the cube, then place defenses around it, and, for Starbase, provided you built the right parts, you then build a defensive shield (safe zone), which requires fuel and power and all the fixings of a ship to make the safe...

    Visibility of player's nicknames

    Names don't show up outside the safe zone - but an option to turn it on when needed would be good. In the safe zone... I'd prefer to be able to hide it. But it's not really going to happen. Game has to be a little "MMO" style. 3rd person view is definitely a problem in a lot of cases. With moon...

    Content for researchers of the universe

    You might just not be a researcher if you can't find things to research. This is research. There's so much unknown and so much possible with YOLOL code. Even this video's findings opens up whole new avenues of research. Sounds like what you really want is lore. The game is wide open. Create...

    Starbase is amazing [gameplay screenshots]

    Starbase is amazing. The best game of its kind in a generation. The devs are insane, tackling almost every genre at the same time, but... they're doing it. It's working. This isn't a game you pick up for a few hours and then never touch it again. This is something that will last for years to...

    PVE is already failing...

    Instancing a single asteroid for a player doing that section of the tutorial, giving them a special transponder-style point to go to, is probably a better solution than just mass-spawning a bunch of asteroids that will immediately be harvested by efficient miners; the problem of new players not...

    Starbase Progress Notes: Week 35 (2021)

    I have to say, you guys are doing amazing work; the best I've ever seen. Thank you.

    Notification about Patch Impact

    I like the idea and hope it allows for new interesting designs.

    Feedback/Suggestion: Cargo Crates as Fluid Containers

    I almost feel the point of making the cargo crates have weight based on their contents is to make sure you balance your load correctly - or install enough powerful-enough thrusters to maintain balance no matter your load, increasing your fuel cost. I do however agree when it comes time to sell...

    Starbase Progress Notes: Week 22 (2020)

    So much good stuff, thank you!

    A navigation system is needed.

    @Atreties this above quote is more to my point. Instead of an XYZ system, the game needs more features. Better screens to display information. Less YOLOL chips to do the same work. Maybe a "navigation computer" that does these things as a single device, that then gives precise triangulation to...

    A navigation system is needed.

    I think this kind of thing could be solved with the Radio Transmitter and player ingenuity. I feel the addition of a /location style command (system or otherwise) which gives players their X Y Z grid location would detract from the feel of the game, taking away a large element of exploration...

    The Good, Bad, and Ugly of Day 1

    The Universal Tool giving some description of objects, like a scanner-tool, would be great. When looking at mining ores, I wish I had a way to 'scan' the item without seeing the color or harvesting it first. Picking up a chunk and then Universal Tool, I hoped would tell me the material I was...

    The Primary Goal Before EA Should Be Completing the Gameplay Loop

    I agree completely. The game is absolutely amazing, off the chart insanely awesome and mind-blowing. The tech and the attention to detail is god-like. Everything is done with such purpose and care and love. Most companies would have released this already as an Early Access game on Steam to...
