Let's talk Color rarity

Going to drop this here also. Sorry for the duplication but it sort of goes here too.

If you had the option, on character creation, to click one button for no color limits, no time gates, no level requirements - a completely sandbox MMO - Do you think that your journey would have been the same?

Ahh no.

I don’t think having a Creative world is cheating, just a time cut and a way to have all the colors you want. But as I cannot bring the blocks into the rest of the universe I don’t buy them. I do buy regular Sov’s.

@Zjawcia

its a joke?

it take millions of sovs to unlock them all…

I have to agree at the rate the colors unlock I will be dead and gone before they all unlock.

@Kal-El

Gleambow does not solve the problem if you need thousands and thousands of a particular color or colors that are never going to spawn on a sovereign due to planet color algorithms put in place by the old development team to make planets look a certain way and as a result exclude colors from ever happening.

@Kal-El

That is a problem in my opinion, created by an unnecessary algorithm used for both permanent and sovereign planets.

This IMO is the crux of the issue with unlocking colors. The algorithm needs to be modified or removed.

Who cares if you get clashing colors? The color changing Exo’s do this sometimes. I have been on some Sov’s that I was like what are these awful colors??? But just because I don’t like them does not mean others will not.

EDIT:

@SephirothWS

Also, after a second read-through of this thread, the topic of the developers’ planet color algorithm; I still challenge the developers to show me this metaphorical ugly planet they are supposedly preventing from happening by not using true randomness when it comes to the color choices when a planet (Be it an exo, or sovereign, or what have you) spawns. Let’s see if the active forum community thinks this metaphorical ugly planet from true randomness is truly ugly or not.

Yes Please!
