Sol System Space Adventure Zone

I know the idea of a space adventure zone and the idea of including all of our solar system in the game have been talked about a lot.

But my idea is to combine them. Being able to explore the solar system would be fantastic in one big area of space that had different places like Utopia Planitia and Jupiter Station to visit.

Thoughts?
Some people buy Tier 6 ships and expect to win. Other people buy Tier 6 ships and are Tier 6 pilots.

    This idea has been tossed around in the past and I'm sure somewhere buried in this forum JamJamz said that the closest they could hope to come to this is each planet on 1 map due to ridiculous scaling issues, the further you go out the more inaccurate the planets and ships get which I belive he said theorticalluy could crash the game...but you may have to double check that.

    I'll admit it's an intriguing idea...

    but what would you DO there?

    Just being able to fly around the Solar System isn't enough reason.

    Sol is too peaceful and boring for that, I am afraid. You'd need one that is full of conflict. Possibly with PvP elements. (A new, expanded Ker'rat?)

    Yes, a new expanded Ker'rat with more PvE and PvP mission options, and one that doesn't glitch every day and has non-broken zone-change functions.

    Can't be having any of that, though. That would give the impression that Cryptic cares about adding PvP content.
    My PvP toon is Krov, of The House of Snoo. Beware of my Hegh'ta of doom.

    1) What would you do there?
    2) The game really isn't set up for being able to travel around large maps in space; there's no way to get anywhere particularly quickly.

    All the planets in the Solar System are available in the Foundry. And Jupiter is quiet huge.


    But outside it, Cryptic would have to make the various stations have importance to have players to go to them. For example: Utopia Planetia for ship crafting, Jupiter Station for R&D, and Titan Station for EVA training.

    And some little dailies between them? I like it.
