So as this is the suggestions page here's some that I hope we'll see in the not too distant future.
Escape pods, they're in the game, you can find them at USS's and on the surface, but you never see an escape pod jettison out of a doomed ship. I feel it would add a whole new element to the game if you were able to collect up an escape pod from combat zones and such, rescue the pilots from the side you're fighting for or take prisoners from the other faction, capture the pirate/bounty you've been after and get a small additional bonus for bringing them in alive to face justice and do time behind bars, or sell on the people that you've just pirated from at star ports and stations with very loose and flexible morals!
SRV weapons, as there doesn't seem to be any move to introducing new SRV types, how about the ability to change your weapon load out on your SRV? A single repeater with a missile pylon, or a cannon mount, a Gatling gun or slow firing laser cannon, does more damage, but a longer delay before being able to fire again?
There's still some ships I think are missing from the game from the original Elite that I feel would help with immersion and nostalgia. The ships are the Boa, Cobra MkI, Constrictor, Gecko, Krait (call it a MkI, single seat light fighter), Moray Star Boat, Shuttles, Transporters, Worm Class Landing Craft and Wolf MkII (Amiga 500 version). These ships could be NPC ships to start with eventually making their way into Commanders hands. Have the older style ships appear more in the fringe sections of the bubble areas were people don't have the credits to buy the big and new shiny ships.
Here's hoping that someone from Frontier gives this a read and likes the suggestions.
