Dunno if I can trust this. Gonna have to see for myself if I care to install it again.
Survival mode is extremely hard in my opinion. Definitely requires a bit of decision making. I had to start a new game like 3 times before I actually made it to my crashed starship, in survival mode they spawn that stuff like a 10 minute walk away from you lmao, and it seems to always be on a planet with hostile conditions
Your launch thrusters require a full tank and USE a full tank in a single take off, so if you land in an area where there's not enough plutonium to take off again and you don't quite have enough life support to find and collect it, you could be in trouble. Not to mention sprinting and jetpacking drains the stuff out of your life support as well
and pirates WILL forget you. haven't quite figured that one out yet
