Roadmap

I want to involve you guys more in the development process so you know what's going on. Therefore I'm adding this roadmap thread where you discuss what you want me to work on and I give some heads on what I'm working on right now.

There's one important thing here. Don't use this as your personal suggestion forum. Use it to discuss the things that people've mostly agreed about already even if the details aren't ironed out.

This is very important. Don't use this to advertise your suggestion threads. I read all of them anyway. Use it to guide me in what you feel is the most important thing I could work on right now.

(Here's an example post)

We've done a lot of discussion on the subject and I think you should work on adding some of the specialization from this thread.

I think you should read it through and start to work out some concrete examples that you think will fit and discuss it further there and then work on implementing it.

(not sure I'm doing right, but i will give it a try)
I would think that most of the community would agree that we would like to see boarding come out soon rather than new little things here and there.

(not sure about others, but for once, I would like to answer the question "what are the turrets for?" or "what are the weapons for?" to noobs without saying, "it is shiney junk untill a future patch" =p)

I'm planning on releasing boarding for 2.0 and I actually did a lot of work on it today on my stream. I might release some new patches called 1.92, 1.93 and so on but they'll only consist of balance and bug fixes. The next new feature should be boarding.

I really like the slew of new features that have come out in the last few months, and I'm glad to see more people coming here all the time. I think it goes without saying that boarding is one thing everyone is looking forward to, but I also think the issues with drones needs to be solidly resolved before we get carried away with another wave of new concepts. Once the game as it stands has more polish to it (and only a few features are missing that shine!) we can take a more serious look at future projects/implementations.

What's wrong with drones? :|

I think, after 2.0, the next focus should be improving CC's accessibility. In-game tutorials and stuff. Because I'm tired of repeating the same thing to newbies over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and...

IMO CC could be a little more accessible but could be as simple as changing the load screen to add some instructions. i.e. what the side menu with locations is for, and how to mine.

Also we were all at some point noobs asking stupid questions (hell I still am) so cut newbies some slack. You may have a great ally / clan mate in a game or two cause if you teach them properly and it only takes about 2-5 games to become semi decent at CC if you are a slightly below average gamer like myself.
