Hi Deadmoose,
It sounds like you are pitching for some form of combat based PvP. Unfortunately this isn’t something we are looking at for Boundless 1.0. (1.0 is when the game comes out of early access and becomes a live title.)
1.0 is being treated as the discovery and colonisation version. Where players come together to build cities and discover new worlds to see what dangers and rewards they hold. But it does not mean 1.0 will be the final version.
Hopefully with a strong and passionate community we hope we can deliver new versions which introduce new features and mechanics players have been asking for in the forums.
