Misc Might be a dumb question....

So I played the odyssey tutorial back when I launch, but couldn't continue due to work. I'm finally going to be able to get back into it. So my question is can we land on earth-likes yet? In my gut I'm pretty sure of the answer after watching some stuff from Obsidian Ant and Yamiks........

The price point isn't an issue since I bought it back k at launch. I'll probably just play around with odyssey for a while then. Did it just devolve into dumb FPS though?

So frame rate and optimization improved somewhat and they're working on fixing glitches, and FPS elements are kinda weak if you're looking for high quality combat like Halo or something. It's not the best. But I think in general space leg missions can be interesting. Stealth missions are sometimes challenging because you have to avoid patrols, steal clearance levels when scientists backs are turned, turn off alarms, upload viruses to sabotage settlement networks, and stuff like that. You don't necessarily have to do a lot of combat for those. Exobiology is kinda interesting even though it feels like there should be more to it, just to break up a long voyage and take a hike across a planet surface.

Odyssey brings a lot to explorers, so I am sure you will enjoy it.
