Community Goal Rewards

Hi,

it seems to me that the way the rewards given has changed again in the recent months. There was a time some months ago, when some insane amount of money was given for some goals - luckily this has changed. Even though I got some good money out of this, I think it did not really help the game.

On the other hand the current payment also leaves some questions - it simply does not make any sense to given someone, who earned tens of millions credits (or even hundreds of) an additional 3 or 6 (as in the current goal).

Credits as a reward makes sense for starters, so it is IMHO OK for the Top 100% and Top 75% (maybe - just maybe for the Top 50%) - they still need the money. Everyone above is not interested in the credits as a reward I dare to say - at least I am doing it for leaderboard stats, paint jobs, decals ... whatever you cannot buy with credits. So the paint jobs in the current goal are very welcome and I hope that this is continued in some way or another.

Someone some time ago also put forward to have sort of achievements in Elite - I personally would love to see i.e. decals for community goals, a decal for the number of community goals I attended, a decal for the highest leaderboard rank or even things like number of goids killed (of course I KNEVER killed any goids - I am a peaceful man :) ) etc..
However: with the current limit of only one decal ... what would be nice was a bigger "decal area" on the ship where you can place multiple (down-sized) decals at the same time to properly let them shine.

Other thoughts on this?

Ship kits - why not: a free ship kit for XX CGs.
Doesn't even have to be the entire kit (FDev have to make money somehow). Just offer a single piece or more for higher contributors/tier.

That might incentivize players to buy the full set to complete it if they desire so.

The "gold rush" CGs have always been rare, but I expect another one will be along eventually.
 
I think they should have Community goal rankings. Each Community goal you participate in gives you XP, and you get more the higher percent you reach. Each rank could give a unique decal, maybe starting out at bronze and working its way up through gold, and then shifting into glowing versions.
