CCP Omen's first blog post focuses on the present and future of Planetary Interaction in EVE Online and DUST 514.

CCP Omen joined EVE Online's Planetary Interaction team in May, so it's only fitting that his first blog post focuses on the present and future of Planetary Interaction in the game. As you may have heard, planets will be the main link between EVE Online and DUST 514, CCP's upcoming FPS/RTS hybrid.

According to CCP Omen, here's what you can expect to see in November's Incursion expansion:

Upgradable Command Centers will allow players to increase and decrease the CPU/Power capabilities of their colony without having to tear it all down (existing undeployed command centers will be migrated to the new system).

Only the first Command Center must be bought and hauled in space, after that there is no longer a need to haul command centers in order to upgrade

Surveying has been radically revamped and will allow players to create extraction programs that span anything from an hour to 14 days!

Extractors can now be moved when in program creation mode

What are your thoughts on the planerary connection between EVE Online and DUST 514? Are you looking forward to the launch of the FPS/RTS game?
