Getting rid of the requirements to unlock access to Engineers.

Thought of this after seeing someone link this issue tracker report.


After getting all the Horizon Engineer unlocked. I am asking that most of the Engineer access, unlock requirements be removed permanently.

I'm against the suggestion I'm afraid. Those unlocks are the nearest thing to an "epic quest line" we have. I'd like more such content, not less.
 
What do you propose instead?
It's just the access unlock that would be leaving. Not huge change to the game.


Everybody gets everything for free? Sounds good, I'll start looking for another game now shall I?
It's just the access unlock. Would still have the grade 1 to 5 engineer stuff.

Have you even seen the Horizon Engineers? Bunch of them just do same engineer stuff anyway. And it's just the access to the engineer. Not the hours spent going to them and the hours spent gathering the materials. And you don't have to unlock access to car mechanics in real life. Just phone make an appointment or follow health restrictions and show up at their shop.

Yes of course I've seen them, I've unlocked all of them. I even went to Colonia specially to ingratiate myself with the ones there. I've played for so long I'm casting about for new objectives to set myself. Some more unlocks to do would be nice extra content. In other news I've done both Ram Tah missions, the Thargoid base display, found brain trees and barnacles. There are a few permit locks I still haven't got, but this week as it's the second combat CG in a row I've cleared off to look for Void Hearts. More story content (even extremely lightweight story) is what I now look for.
 
I have to admit, I don't understand how you think having to do alot of the Engineer access unlock requirements is interesting game play.
And the ones in permit locked systems?
As with Bill turner the engineer in Alioth. Currently if you have Alioth permit, you still have to get mining resource Bromellite. My suggestion would only remove the requirement to get the Bromellite.
 
Free permits? At this rate we’ll be on to insta-travel by tea time 😂
Where's the free permit suggestion? Engineers in permit locked locations currently require their own unlock. Getting those permits doesn't get you access currently.
My suggestion would have only removed the engineer access requirement. Not permit locks. Since it's not a requirement currently to unlock access.
