If you discover a jump point and immediately explore the system after the jump, are you able to claim some of the land on any planets you discover inside the system once you report the jump point intel to UEE authorities?asked by Cpt. Darkstar
TL;DRIt hasn't been decided whether players can own planets or land; claiming things like a derelict asteroid base is possible, and land claims may come longer term but perhaps not in the first version.
I don't have a great answer for that because we still haven't really decided on whether you can actually own a planet or a land or a portion of land.You can definitely navigate a jump point, get to name it, get to name the system, and potentially, if there were an area like a derelict asteroid base, you could land on that and control it or claim it for yourself, but I'm not sure that we're currently gonna let people land on a barren planet and say "This is ChrisWorld" or something like that.So we do want to have a certain level of player controlled terrain, but right now that's kind of limited to the space station / asteroid bases, the stuff that you can find in space or big capital ships.But longer term, we are thinking about are there ways to do that on some land. I think that ultimately will get into the game, I'm not sure it will be in there in v1, if that makes sense.
