Back during the 2.1 beta livestreams, Sandro mentioned that the "call in a favour" mechanic-that was implemented for Engineered Weapon Upgrades-was originally going to be released for use with Factions. So the question I have for developers is-will this mechanic still be released for factions, & will we see it in 2.2?
My genuine hope is that "calling in a favour" will be useful for the following things:
1. Changing of mission parameters (esp. payouts).
2. Getting fines overlooked.
3. Getting better prices for bounties or commodities.
4. Obtaining a ship or module not usually available from that station.
5. Getting tip-offs or rumours relating to that system or nearby systems (might give you a heads up on upcoming changes to system states and/or upcoming Community Goals for example, & might give you info regarding valuable caches of goods, or particularly lucrative targets to be attacked)
There may be others of course, but those are the ones I would most like to see.
