Benoit is the best thing to happen to Star Citizen in a long time.
he understands that we need GAMEPLAY, we have not had proper gameplay in a long time, our missions are repetitive and boring, our "progression" doesn't exist.
Crafting finally introduced to juice up the player economy and actually sink your UEC and grind into.
LEGENDARY ARMOR and other rarities, horizonal and vertical progression, no more "Light med heavy" armor with just a % damage reduction, but you specialize in a role like combat, specialist, support...etc.
and each of these armor variants will give you benefits, maybe such as better healing output or more space for healing items, or stealth armor etc.
Raids are awesome, why would you not want to raid a base and loot stuff?
Star Citizen is finally heading to a direction of the MMO, that people actually want to play and progress with, i for one welcome these features and can't wait to see more.
As long as NONE of the progression can be bought with real money or sped up or "time saved" with real money, this game is meant to be played for years and years, and you have absolutely ZERO need to speed up your progress. you already have done that with the many ships people are buying.
