Does anyone know what the next story planet will be, and if there is an ETA on it?

No ETA as far as I and others can see.

Story planet? Ah-hahaha! That's just a myth, my friend! The story is just a distraction and all that matters is a bazillion different yet ultimately rather samey TFs and an equal number of one-off shallow characters/events.

Cool it. You don't like it, take yourself elsewhere and your vague half-insults.

To answer the question ETA is a no-go but it's going to be a mega-dungeon crewed by a relatively unknown pirate gang.

Way to kick a hornet's nest with this satirical crap that just you just spewed onto the forum... I understand the slowness that any major storyline stuff gets worked on an implimented, and I'd love to see its continuation just as much as anyone else, but if you're gonna insult all of the work that I'm sure everyone worked their asses off for, especially the volunteer writers then not cool man. If you can't do any better, then I suggest you keep your insults to yourself.

Nah. I'm not talking to you and the ones I am talking to handle it and shrug it off. So there's no reason for you to get offended or even involved so I'll just keep being skeptical AF that this game will ever find anything even remotely close to completion.

Uh, it's a porn game, the sex scenes *are* the content, not the "story" planets. Why would they want to end a subscription based product when they could keep adding new sex scenes?

Not trying to be impatient, I'm just curious!

We've drafted out the next planet, and it'll start rolling out sometime early next year -- probably when Fen's finished with corgiland and I'm done with SyriQuest, both fairly large undertakings.

The elevator pitch for the next "planet" is basically a megadungeon: it's a pirate base built into an asteroid, basically Space Tortuga. There'll be a bunch of bosses and mobs to clear out between you and the probe, which is being held by the port's leader. Once you're done, you can hang out with all kinds of lowlife scum NPCs. Might be a place NPCs like Kara and Khorgan could show up again. There's about a 90% chance you'll get a sweet tricorn somewhere.

Does that also mean we'll also be getting Pieces o' 8 (bits)?

Since you're on the topic of big ticket items that the community is vaguely aware are happening, how is the ship stuff and ever rumored player psykers stuff doing?

No idea about ship stuff; my understanding is that Gedan's working as hard as she can but her house is slowly disintegrating around her.

Psyker stuff is still not happening until later-game so nobody's touched it and they probably won't for like literal years.

I'm guessing that the system has been decided to go back to a non-starter class thing again? The information I've gathered had led me to believe that it was gonna be a separate class rather than a late game thing.

Awesome, thanks for the answer!

I dunno! I'd definitely prefer it to be a class, but it's not my call.

So Khorgan might show up there if you blew up Tarkus? Neat.

And yay, repeatable Kara encounters.

Is this asteroid planet the wasteland Mad Max planet that's meant to serve as an alternitave start to Mhenga, or is this something entirely different?

Honestly, I'm quite happy with it being a common thing for all classes, not matter if it's end-game content. My opinion may not be popular, tho.

I've outlined it a bit before, but I'd like both personally:

A Psi-Adept class that you can take from level 1, letting you use psychic stuff all the way through the game, and attachments that unlock a much more limited selection of powers for all classes. Adepts might be the PCs who start out with an implant that lets them use their powers; everyone else has to get weird parasites or expose themselves to the Warp or something.

I'm in agreement here. I'd rather like it if psionic powers were something that the player could base their character around or gain through the course of the PCs adventures.

There could even be a tam-wolf situation where you find parts for a psi-amp and PCs who aren't Adepts could take the parts to a professional for credits or to have it implanted, whereas Adepts would take the parts to the professional to have their amp upgraded, because Steele hopefully isn't stupid enough to try neurosurgery on themself.

Another class requiring an accessory is something I feel like is fantastic fucking reason to make a class item slot and rework the other classes into using a class item.

What would mercs and smugglers use?
I'm not sure about mercs, they've kinda been too straightforward and simple for the most part. Probably something to do with armor enhancement or physical shields as I don't think restricting heavy weapons and power armor to them is a good idea as power armor for techs is also a fun concept.. Smugglers I'd think would build around their flashbang grenade that they start with and just be able to muck with inflicting status effects that they get bonus damage and crit for exploiting.

EDIT: Actually mercs could probably also do with having a stronger ability to switch/combo between melee and ranged. Like full space marine style combat. That fits their image in my head at least.

done

Thanks that's not relevant to my question at all.

Clearly just restrict ACTUAL normal armor to them; nobody else uses it anyway, so it can just be cosmetic for everyone else. :p

Pretty sure the only reason nobody uses actual armor outside of the goo armor if that counts is due to the good stuff getting its resists nerfed into the ground.

"Free to play game"
If it's free to play, then why are there *clears throat* 6,011 people on Patreon giving them $31, 212 a month for a "free to play game"? :v

Also, tfw the last story update was in 2015 :l
