Subset Games Forum

Me want. Me pay more money. Sandbox!

I too would like to see the game expand into one where you can roam the galaxy and explore everything there is to explore, visit shops and bars on planets to buy upgrades and recruit new crew members, to have the option to become a space pirate or explorer or trader etc. I think it would be fantastic if you were able to set up a trade route between sectors and hire ships to haul stuff around. I know that the 'X' series of games lets you do a lot of this and I suppose if FTL is a commercial success perhaps we might get to see this stuff as well?

A lot of these types of suggestions are cool, but I really think they are better off as FTL2 type suggestions. The game would really need to change a lot to accomodate these things. So it'd really be better to just design the whole game from the ground up with a long campaign in mind methinks.

Not that I'd mind seeing it as DLC or something.
