As usual , same old 3-4 hardcore sony fanboys appear to show their ignorance (Stay jelly) .

Word on the street is that you can fly to the surface of a planet in real time and fly into outer space seemlessly. In other words, my dream game. Srsly tho, **** the system requirements.
Just start saving for next year or later, I imagine this will be realised in 2016. I dont know if the seemless travel thing is true, last I heard "it was expansion material" ... I didnt think planatery surface flying was a thing either.
they might of changed their mind since then however.
On launch , the game is confirmed to have 420 landing zones (planets , asteroids , underwater cities etc) . Everything is handcrafted and enviroments will be big enough to be explored . When you reach a planet , just like Freelancer you'll have to hit auto pilot . It'll take your ship to ground through clouds . When you enter clouds , the game will quickly load the place where you are about to land .
Then clouds will break and you'll be able to see the place , through your cockpit/windows . Auto pilot will take you to landing zone . Then you can go out of the ship and move freely . Later down the road , when procedural generation becomes on par with handcrafted worlds (depends on their R&D) and hardware catches up , they'll release procedural generation expansion , which will unlock entire planets to explore and you'll be able to move freely (atmospheric flight) .
Other than that , I'm pretty sure Squadron 42 campaign will have limited mission areas with boundaries (just like Wing Commander) where you'll be able to destroy enemy bases on planet while flying your ship . FPS on planets is already confirmed for both Squadron 42 (2015) and Star Citizen itself (2016) .
