How will the Centauri be different from Sol + idea

[tredavidson77]

I don't know if the devs said anything or its on one of the road maps but how will thew human factions be different from each other. Will the Centauri be underdogs with less advanced tech or with they be a professional military with just less advanced technology then the Sol humans?

Also will there be more ambient animals like say herds of reptilian creatures or maybe some weird pseudo mammels wandering the map.

I like this idea of there being a diversity between sol and Centari styles, while still having integral qualities. not sure if it is mostly cosmetic, but maybe some of the stats could very, like soul could have cheaper jets, and aircraft, Centari could have cheaper commando and light vehicles. Centari feel like they have to be more guerrilla like since they are poorer, while sol can spend a ton of money on high tech R&D. Maybe Centari have lightweight clocking and sol has orbital strikes, idk.

Yeah that's what I was thinking.

Centauri should have dirtbikes instead of the hover bikes and their harvesters should be that other currently unused harvester model

While I always love variety in games, I don't think Sol and Centari should be any different besides color schemes. There's already Aliens. Too much work for one developer to make 3 factions.

Try to be too ambitious, and you risk other areas in games not being as developed as they should be.

Weren't differences in the human factions on a roadmap?

I haven't seen the roadmap in awhile, but I think his intention was to make another human faction.

I'm not going to pretend to know what makes a successful game because I'm not a developer at all, just a gamer. Just wanted to state that there's many areas of the game that still needs improvement before it gets to full release. Don't want to be too ambitious and dig yourself into an early access grave.

while playing the game someone told me Centauri is going to be more of a industrial, improvise team, in the style of warhammer orks or mad max, not literally that but the idea of it, and more focused on defense. this makes sense since in the lore Sol doesn't want to share riches with Centauri, so Centauri tech would be cheaper and more improvised.
