Connected Gameplay

Please connect the Power Play ranking system with the mission and rep system that is already in the game. There is no need for two different ranking systems to unlock rewards.

If you want to unlock a faction module you will have to wait 3-4 weeks of real time and than earn merits that unlock ranks that unlock rewards. If you want a faction ship you can just run missions for that faction until you earn the rank to unlock the ship.

I think the game would make more sense if these two systems were connected.

I agree.

It would also make sense if the PP factions actually mattered to people who don't pledge to a faction. Right now, the only faction who matters to non PP players is Li Yong Rui and his ship discounts.

Right now, even a few patches after PP, PP still feels tacked on and not really a part of the core game.

agreed

+1, was surprised they weren't merged back when 1.3 launched.

It would be great to see some missions that require you to be pledged to a power, or progress in your reputation with a power change as you do missions with the powers minor factions...

I would like to see the power play actors have their own minor factions in the systems they own. That would give players more options on how they want to rank up with that power. Players could trade to that station, sell exploration data or turn in bounty vouchers. Players could also run missions to gain the ranks and rewards.
