What can you do in GCIII right now?

Posted on Wednesday, July 16, 2014

I have almost convinced myself to jump in and buy the Founder's Elite deal.  Could some kind souls please tell me what you can do in the game right now?  I browsed this forum, and read quite a bit, but did not find anything that lists out the things you can do in this version (Alpha 3?) of the game.  I realize it is still very early, and lots of things are missing and not implemented yet.  However, what is there to do?  Is there any fun to be had?

  • Explore?  Can you colonize planets?
  • Build ships? Can you use the ships you build?
  • Planets?  Can you build improvements and stuff on your planets? 
  • Combat?  What state is combat currently in?
  • What else?  Any random events or things to find around the map?

Thank you!  Bring me over the edge.  Convince me to buy this game, I implore you.  Just don't tell my wife.
