No aggressive mobs in Away Team - a missed opportunity?

[SamLogan]

Hey all,

It looks like "Away Team" is focusing purely on environmental and physics-based survival, with no hostile creatures.

I'm wondering if this is a missed opportunity for a different kind of challenge. What if there were non-lethal pests that messed with your infrastructure? Imagine space rats chewing through power cables, forcing you to constantly repair and secure your base without it being about combat.

Do you prefer the pure person-vs-environment challenge, or would this kind of threat add a fun dynamic?

What are your thoughts?

I don't think that's what was stated - I interpreted it as there won't be any direct combat/bossfights.

think there will be some kind of hostile critters later like the beeta or pokeshells with eggs around
