We've decided to give gas planets some love, as they tend to remain unused until later in the game due to the difficulty of colonizing and holding them. Choose one of three packs of anomalies to be added to the game.

Check out the Gas planet Anomalies HERE!

Voted.

Some great ideas here. I assume that you'll be removing from the list of possible gas giant anomalies the ones that just don't make sense, like 'rich soil' or 'garden of Eden' as part of this update?

The anomalies that deal with exotic physical characteristics of a planet, such as the Endless tidal plant or Oddity radio emissions, are some of the most interesting for me. Probably because they help me think of these things as actual planets, with gravity, geologic histories, and potentially very interesting orbital mechanics.

It's on the list of things to do, but I'm not sure whether it'll be done for Update 3.

Hey Frogsquadron, I may be the minority on this here but I only knew about this vote from the dev stream yesterday. Perhaps it would be a good idea to make a post in the devblog for more visibility? I may be wrong though.

I think (I'm not 100% up to date on G2G notifications) that if you're subscribed to a game (clicked the star in the game's universe, at the top level of the forums), it'll pop a notification on the right-hand-side bar to let you know of a new vote.

We didn't write a blog for this vote specifically as it was relatively minor and we usually lump these in with other news about the game, but if it turns out many people miss it, we just might write the blogs indeed.

Alright :D I was just mentioning it, didn't know how big a deal it was haha. Probably just me.
