Presumably we'll be able to operate on every planet type in New Eden. I'm really looking forward to gas giants, as you can probably guess from this. |

shattered planets are not harvestable, so I am going to guess that since we are mercs to be hired by people wanting to harvest a planet that we will not have the shattered planets here. It would be awesome though.. who knows, maybe pve? |

I doubt it, you can't do anything with them in EVE.
Also according to lore the reason they're shattered is that they got smacked by a MASSIVE solar flare thing, so they are radioactive as kitten. |

Maybe in 2014 once CCP has ironed out most of the bugs and the server is able to handle it more. |

I figure the shattered planets will be very low priority, so it could be latter then 2014 if we get to use those. |

Fighting on different planets just demands different art assets/map design. Bugs with gameplay features has nothing to do with it, nor does servers being able to handle it, as if fighting on platforms on a gas/lava/whatever planet would be so much more demanding than fighting on dirt,
Anyway, yeah, other planet types are obviously on the agenda. It's just a matter of the time it takes to create new assets for new planets. Stuff's pretty time consuming, so it's no wonder they're just doing temperate initially. |

But it also affects gameplay like falling in lava kills you or maybe something on plasma planets remeber they said some planet types will have hostile enviroments i.e. Lava,plasma, maybe shattered? |

Shattered planets being, well shattered, would mess with gravity. It's basically a a cluster of asteroids that used to be a planet, so gravity will probably be off. Map could be sloped or gravity could be almost none existent, map could have a second chunk 1/2 km above map with gravity going other way, making down switch 1/2 way.
Shattered planets would need funky game mechanics and there are very few with no resources. I'm sure they would be the lowest priority, after maps with no ground and maps on seafloor are finished. |

Seafloor maps?... Ok, now I'm intrigued. |

would be just non fightable, planets all water or something, were not gonna fight underwater that would be ridiculous and think of all the people complaining about "moving too slow" we move slow as it is already, now think about people moving through water....

I see two types of possible maps for ocean planets.
1: Underwater, now this could be like you described and everything moves slow, or they could have some kind of sci fi BS to explain why you can move normally underwater.
2: Some sort of floating city thing. |

Shattered planets are... shattered.
I fail to see how you imagine we'll be fighting on the surface of those. They'd probably require a few million years to settle enough that the constant earthquakes and lava doesn't kill us mercs in minutes. |

Also there are less than 10 of them in the entire EVE universe, verses tens of thousands of the others types. Is it really worth the effort of creating an entire new environment? |
