there is no fun in having a huge planet if people will spawn right next to you, Water planets are even worse, there is a very high chance of both teams spawning on the same small island I would forfeit the ability to pick a spawn point if it meant that players didnt spawn next to each other anymore
Remember the game is meant to be played across multiple planets. There is only so much room at the moment with one planet. You know Alpha and stuff.
Alpha man... Alpha... The Alpha is not for having fun. If you happen to have some that's just a happy coincidence. This isn't a priority until Beta.
one thing atm, is that planets doesnt really have any obstacles besides water atm. Sometimes there is some small mountains or some cracks. I think that is one thing that will help, where there is more mountain ranges, bigger canyons and bigger taller more dense forrests. Atm you can just walk in a straight line towards your opponent. So stuff like this when added, will make the planets feel bigger. Its like if you take a basic RTS game and had a entire flat map. when you add ramps, high ground, terrain you cant pass, maps becomes and feels larger.
