Custom ships

[deathdealer666666]

If this game had custom ships like starfield, this game,hands down, would be the best space sim ever

Already is, unless you can name one better, I will be waiting :)

I'd be happy if we could put some decals on the ones we find

I've looked at the starships in starfield and IMO they look horrible, like a bunch of plastic boxes put together

There is a video with starwars ships replicated in starfield that has hundreds thousands of views and they look literally disgusting

Oh well I just realized that all the starships in starfield look like oversized NMS shuttles

So if they add something in NMS, please just be the current starship parts or some cool little things like decals

I think s ship repaint and decal shop would be a reasonable compromise. After the NEXT update data miners found incomplete code for a ship repaint shop. But it appears that was converted into the ship upgrade station.

I think they haven't done ship customization because they can't or they decided ship hunting and coordinate sharing is a core game mechanic. Probably the latter it seems Sean Murray really likes the coordinates share communities.

There are ways to introduce customization and keep ship hunting relevant, like only being able to scrap parts and use them once so you still have to hunt stuff every time you want to make a new ship

This is exactly what I hope to see one day. Ship customisation. Frigate customisation. Freighter. Vast game like NMS needs more customisation options. Oh, yeah, and paints for minotaur.

I think that would be ideal. But for what ever reason HGs doesn't and theirs are the only opinions that matter.

They just need to add purple colors to ships

I keep hearing people say recoloring would mess up ship hunters? How when it's my ship I'd be painting and I have seen npcs recolor and change decals on their ships at space stations. So why can we redo everything except starships and yet the npcs can? I'm on Xbox so I can't do the save file stuff
