WTF is the point of having a "fiery planet" without fire, or a "desert planet" without any desert?
I'm actually enjoying this game. Have played for nearly 50 hours. But seriouisly, it boggles the mind why there's even such a biome as "fiery" without fire. In fact I don't think I've ever seen fire -- PERIOD -- in the game.

Or sand.

I found a planet that was over 300+ °C and no lava or fire was to be found.

Mine was about ~315c and covered in water, so I don't even ... lol

Those things probably existed in the game before it got scaled back so that PS4 could handle it and then PC gamers got the PC port, which is identical to the PS4 version.

Well, nothing resembling real physics exists in the game. I found some butterflies yesterday. Little blue butterflies, the same size as a large butterfly on earth. Except that they weighed 25.7 kilograms each.

Also, was on a planet, farthest from the sun, and the daytime temp was -57C. Then I landed on it's moon, which was oddly a tropical paradise. Unchecked randomness is what we have here.

If not for the console plebs, this game would've been a masterpiece. As things stand, it is only because of the modding community that I'm having so much fun with it.

Well, we saw what it could've been. At the old E3 demonstrations. Clearly, the consoles could not handle that, and they had to gimp it for the PS4.

Anyone else remember the THEY DOWNGRADED THE GRAPHICS! **** storm on TW3 release day?

I remember there for a good while, all I heard is that PC was dead for gaming and the consoles were the future. I remember wanting a controller to play a certain game on my PC and I went into Gamestop or some other gaming store and I asked one of the pimple faced teens working there if they had a controller that would work for PC. He says 'Who plays games on a computer'? And they all laughed. Well, instead of dying off, PC gaming has grown to be a bigger market than consoles. But there still seems to be an effort in the gaming industry to shove PC gaming out of the spotlight and instead promote consoles. I'm not sure what the reason is. I suppose consoles are a lot easier to develop games on for one thing.

I was also a bit disappointed after landing on this planet with "firestorms" listed as weather.

There was just a bit of a smokey effect. Would have been nice to actually see a fire storm with fire tornados and rolling flames.

1. It's a SciFi game, not a space and planets simulation.
2. "Fiery" is a correct word to use for something very hot, as in "Those peppers were fiery!"
Lava flowing from volcanos would be a nice touch, though. Maybe it will come as free DLC.

Its nothing to do with consoles :steamfacepalm:
it would have taken helo games actualy work to make a game like what you saw at E3 but they were just interested in hoodwinking everyone out of there money so they squated out the steaming pile of broken promises.

Blow up some storage silos. The ones that contain either titanium or platinum. You'll see fire.
