Raithon07 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 sooo yeah IFLS posted this recently. looks like Jupiter could have a water tile set because of one of its moons Ganymede apparently may(probably) have a HUGE ocean. http://www.iflscience.com/space/theres-vast-ocean-underneath-icy-crust-jupiters-biggest-moon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)WiiConquered Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 While I agree, Jupiter already has a unique tileset. It might as well go on Uranus (could be explained as one of it's moons). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krion112 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 -snip- If Ganymede was made a planet, I'm fairly certain it'd be under Corpus control (ie, completely surrounded by their forces on Jupiter and Europa). However, Ganymede could be used for a Corpus water tile set, as apparently it has vast underground oceans that are layered with ice. However, I'm fairly certain the coming Grineer water tile set is going on Uranus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firetempest Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) Unfortunately Ganymede is a Exterminate Corpus Gas City. So many node "locations" are named after various moons on multiple planets already. They should really rename and make some new sub locations as phobos was but they will likely shoe it into some random inappropriate planet just to remove old overused tiles. Then once thats done, they might juggle tiles around more. They only recently moved phobos desert tiles to half of Mars.

Kestral9999 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 A) Jupiter's surface is primarily gas clouds, hence the already existent Gas Cloud City tileset on Jupiter. B) Ganymede is one of Jupiter's moons, not the planet itself. C) The water tileset is going on Uranus already, as far as I'm aware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gelkor Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) Keep in mind all of these planetary bodies are set far in the future AFTER the Orokin have apparently terraformed every celestial body possible. Ceres is an atmosphere-less planetoid/asteroid IRL today, but in game it's a relatively verdant and rainy planetoid. So whichever celestial body they put it on will have a reason due to Orokin Era Terraforming. Edited March 13, 2015 by Gelkor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B) Ganymede is one of Jupiter's moons, not the planet itself. look it up if you dont believe me( Luna on Eearth you know THE MOON is a node , Ganymede is a node on jupiter..) C) The water tileset is going on Uranus already, as far as I'm aware. A) a tileset singular. meaning like a node or two. or remaking a planet. The idea was to be an idea sparker as feedback. not troll baiting anal crap. in a feedback post instead of telling me im wrong why dont you contribute to the feedback? please? no? *sigh* B) why not, moons have been nodes on planets for a wile. C) their is no 100% confirmed location of the water tile set yet. keyword SOON TM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightsmith Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Although Jupiter's Moon may have water. Jupiter itself would not. Since some game locations are actual moons (i.e. Phobos) I don't think having a specific tileset on a planet because it fits with a moon would make sense. Yes, some nodes are named after moons, but those are just nodes, it doesn't actually take place on that moon, imo. I believe the Water Tileset will be Uranus, which is odd, I thought Neptune would be better suited but either would work I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
