I'm talking like 1st person on the planet and it turns into sort of a shooter only a simple one. I want to explore them like starcraft and starflight and find resources and weird animals to capture or eliminate if they are too hostile.

Anything like that out there?

The game that will be more close with your description is No Man's Sly. It should be released on 2016.

There is another one also though the running around the planet part is in third person. I can't remember the name of it though but from what i can remember its another Russian dev and it does have "space" in its name so you will have to have a search through Steam yourself if you want it that bad lol :)

That's it that's what I want. Thanks Paulus I didn't know a game or games like that existed. Can't wait for release. Hope it is as good as the trailer and demo I watched.

"GRAV is a sand box experience where you explore a multitude of planets, hunt strange alien creatures, build and defend outposts, craft weapons and armor, and attempt to survive against other players in a hostile environment."

That one looks like just what you are after. People seem to like it, and currently on sale.

Some games of the BattleCruiser series match the description. And some of them are cost-free.
