gas, ice, storm, barren, temperate, lava, oceanic, and plasma.
I assume that gas and plasma are off the table.
my vote is for oceanic planets next. I love the idea of a bunch of 'frostfire' type levels.
cast your vote, i'll tally them up. |

Gas Planets would be nice. Think about Zero Gravity in PI installations. They already said at Fanfest, that they are planning zero gravity levels.
Would love some Storm and Plasmaplanets. But I guess they will come with the Climatic Type Dropsuits. |

Fairly certain someone said gas planets are getting shelved until Dust moves past the PS3, but I don't have a link for that.
And unfortunately I'm sort of expecting this to be the case with all other planet types  |

Me thinks you don't understand how gravity works - ie. the stupidly massive (in this case meaning really frickin heavy, not really big - although gas planets are both) stuff has stupidly high gravity. The gravity on (in?) Jupiter for example is around 25 m/s^2 - earth's is only 9.81 m/s^2.
My guess is barren planets, which'll probably look pretty similar to what we have now but with much rougher terrain - maybe even large underground areas. |

I guess it's important to note that barren planet types account for 30% of all the planets in new eden. so if you want more pc, don't choose plasma. it's only like 2% of the entire population. |

Lava: 50% of the maps should be covered in molten lava, and should do continuous damage when you're on it, more to armor and less to shields. Weapons with heat buildup should heat up quicker.
Ice: 5% speed reduction to ground vehicles and all infantry. Lowered visibility due to blizzards. Weapons with heat buildup should heat up slower.
Those 2 are easiest besides barren (which is more like boring). |

I don't expect this soon, but barren and ice are the obvious next candidates they can use existing assets for the most part. I don't expect to fight on cloud city for a LONG time. We may even be fighting on ships, stations in 0G before we get gas and plasma planets. It will be glorious, but we have a long ways to go before we see any of this.
Barren and ice might come in a year or two. Oceans might come before or after the cloud city. I'm not sure if they'd go submarine with oceans or platforms on the water with surface boats (maybe both). Either way to do oceans, plasma and gas planners properly will require a huge amount of work.
EDIT: I forgot lava. That would probably follow ice and barren, because it would still use most of the existing assets. |

An Ice planet geology is significantly different though to make it look and feel like a planet is made of ice is going to require a different approach. |

They could reuse the same structures though. It would be really cool if they could procedurally generate snowdrifts based on wind direction so each match looked/felt a little different. |

Lava, would be great for trolling bluedots. 1 BPO LAV (why do we still have 3 BPO saga's and no BPO methana's by the way.) get a blueberry to jump in drive towards lava and bail out at last second. |

Storm or Ice.
Massive Urban spires with crackling beams of lightning arcing from massive earthing rods, while the shield bubble above us is the only thing keeping the raging storm from destroying the entire urban complex. An oppressive pall can be felt, the battlefield is dark, flickering lights could also be massive useful for immersion purposes.
Or
Thick screening blizzards and battles across glaciers and winter tundra. Visibility is low, scans are important, while the cold chips away at players not using Heater Modules or Winterized Dropsuits. Below ground complexes add to the theme, with players able to brave the poor visibility and generally confusing upper terrain, or making their way through sprawling underground hangars and ice tunnels.
Oceanic I would love, but I can't quite conjure up the battlefield in my mind. |

But the one i would like to se most is oceanic, and i hope that when it comes we also get some naval war machines.

I think if CCP wanted to bring our barren we would not have sockets, just slot canyons with complexes built into them, massive fissures and over arching natural bridges, craters and shattered mountains, etc. |

That sounds great! Got to make each planet type feel unique, and that would definitely help for barren. |

Well that's what I was thinking.
Basically
Temperate- Average Amount of Planetary Infrastructure
Barren- Little to no Infrastructure
Ice- Sub Terrainian Infrastructure
Storm- Urban densely packed Infrastructure
Shattered- None, lack of reasonable terrain makes drop ships a necessity
Lava- Moderate. Verticality of Terrain variable. |

I'm going to say barren, because that would greatly increase the number of districts available for us to fight on and wouldn't take much development time. They'd probably be new moods for the terrains that we have now.
After those though I think ice worlds would be the place to go. Ocean planets require work into figuring out how water comes in to gameplay. Can we swim? Do we just fight on stationary platforms, or are there boats? How do you visually define the boundary of the map when everything is water? Plasma and lava have significant art requirements in addition to gameplay mechanic changes. Storm as well, most likely. Gas giants are right out. After barren, ice is the only one that really only needs new art. |

Oceanic could be combat inside the under water bases you can set up in PI.
That way water is only an illusion. |
