HYPED to play Battlescape

Since we are close to playing the game, what are you mostly looking forward to doing?
The first thing I will probably do is fly to the marslike moon and see if we already can enjoy the new textures we saw in the screenshot from the last update. And of course harrassing others with lazors. :smiley:

Seamless spaceflight, exploration and PEW-PEW! :sunglasses:

Iā€™m interested in seeing what sorts of tactics evolve from newtonian space battles.

EVERYTHING!?!

Yes, I canā€™t decide.

Wasnā€™t there a thread with ā€œFirst thing youā€™ll do in Infinityā€?

Mostly just loving planet landings and exploration. But I will definitely be watching out for Miss Piggy - she can be pretty aggressive sometimes.

Seeing the new big asteroid! (if its already in)

Honing my planetary flying skills by passing the ā€œparkourā€ in less than 12 parsecs.

Or maybe visit the planets and try to find all statues, if theyā€™re available :slightly_smiling:

The first thing I do when playing I:B is: exploring all the moons/planets!

Mess around with gravity and physics. To catch sunrises and sunsets. Like Lomsor said, everything! Please donā€™t shoot at me when Iā€™m exploring :wink: :waxing_crescent_moon:

EDIT: I know that nothing orbits at this time. What I meant was flying toward or away from the sun when flying close to the planet.

Your ship can orbit. The prototype even has indicators where to aim and how fast to go in order to orbit.

My bad. Itā€™s just that planets and moons arenā€™t in rotation. Therefore, I cannot land on a surface and then wait for the sun to rise or fall.

First thing Iā€™ll do?

Iā€™m probably going to read the key bindings.

Second?

Turn my ship on.

Going from ground to space and back to a different but of ground will keep me amused for hours.

Thats always fun, but they need to make it a lot harder to enter the atmosphere. The ships should blow up when you do it too fast or with a bad angle. It should also vary from ship to ship how hard it is, and how fast you can do it. I bet they have already planned to do thatā€¦

Looking forward to the planet surface features and having a good fly around. Clouds in the atmosphere and hopefully extremely beautiful graphics.

1st will probably be inter-planetary flight. :slight_smile: But immediately after that I plan to seek out and fly some canyons! Sometime after Iā€™ve satiated my need for speed in enclosed spaces, I propose we see how high we can stack our mini Millennium Falcons and take some screenshots. :smiley:

I plan to ghost some freighters. Nobody gonā€™ be shootā€™n down my convoys!

OH yeah! Thatā€™s probably going to be my very first goal in game. Find some canyons and contour fly the crap out of them.
