Elite: Odyssey

RawnuTalking about Odyssey and on-foot stuff (@Meowers mentioned something about the emptiness of the settlements), let's talk about it:

(1) What do you really like about your space legs?
(2) What Odyssey content is your favorite?
(3) What would you love to see improved?

For me it's:
(1) After playing for long years on console, coming to Odyssey on PC (ok, SteamDeck) made me feel like a real person. Being able to walk around, to see myself as a person, really added to the immersion of the whole Elite experience. Also: fancy suits.
(2) Stealthing and sniping, I love to sneak into stuff and kill people silently from afar.
(3) Settlements are too empty and not varied enough. I want more NPCs doing every day stuff, I want shopping malls and schools and stuff, turning them into real little towns. It would also be cool to have missions combining several vehicle activites, like dogfights with your spaceships, SRV battles, SRV exploring, on-foot exploring etc. And I would love to have more Concourse stuff (see the other post of mine about Carriers). Or to frame it better: something else in a station or a port than a concourse.

check in the control settings - I think 'R' is accelerate 'F' is decelerate by default (WASD is used for yaw & roll if/when you're not in contact with the ground)

I'd strongly advise having a key set to toggle drive assist - fine movements (moving around accurately in a small area) in an SRV are painful. (when the throttle is set to 5%, the srv doens't move, but if you boost a bit off the ground it does accelerate but too much.
