Hey interlopers! Day 1 player here. I feel like base building across the board needs A LOT more added to it for non-glitch building players to be able to make truly unique and interesting structures. But one of the biggest missing pieces to me is not having any way to add spectacular views into space on your frieghter.

As far as rendering the frienter base goes, I get why you can’t just plop a window anywhere. But it’s hard not to want to when your only view is off the freighter’s bridge through the dirtiest windows in the galaxy and is half taken up by the freighter’s tractor beam.

Now, having watched a lot of Star Trek lately, having a viewing screen to pull up feeds off of different angles of the ship would really up immersion and drop the claustrophobia of frieghter bases. For simplicity, every viewing screen could be cycled through 5 default perspectives; foreward, stern, port, starboard, and below.

I just think this is could be an easy workaround for not being able to place windows on frieghters. What do you all think?

Hey everyone, I just started the game yesterday and I’m still in the tutorial where you build your first base. I was wondering how far I should play the main story before doing other stuff. I read somewhere that you get blueprints form the main mission, so I want to get those asap. At what point in the main quest is that?

Also what are your favourite things to do in the game? I need some ideas, but I definitely want to get into base building. I played starfield before this and was really disappointed in the lack of impact of the outposts there. I basically want to try everything the game offers at least once to see if I like it. Also any tips for a new player like me? Or mistakes to avoid?

Thanks in advance.
