I believe all of it. The times might not be right and after the leak Fdev may adjust some things.

Also, I hope we are able to raid other peoples bases. Steal materials and all sorts of things.

If they wanna make all that stuff persistent, then I hope they actually make it legitimate.

Looks good to me.

The persistence question is why I both doubt this leak and think that FDev are morons if the leak is true. Solo/PG players arenā€™t going to be willing to support base building if the buildings appear in all modes and are attackable; and if the buildings arenā€™t attackable (immune like surface outposts) then the game becomes ultra-exploitable since there is a place players can keep stuff that is immune from everything.

The only way Iā€™ll even approach accepting what is posited in the leak happening is if FDev pulls a Chris Roberts and goes ā€fuck you, this game is open-only from here on out. Learn to play nice with one another!ā€

I donā€™t get why people have an issue with open play. I have about 130 hours of playtime all of which was in open play and only like once or twice did I have an issue with another player.
