How Power Play has effected CG's

In the Past i did parcipate on a lot combat CG that made me some extra money. I really only see the extra money and the global reward atm to make a CG worthwhile. Because it just does not offer more atm.
Some global rewards where great, like huge discounts, getting a lot rare goods while other seemed worthless ( moved story forward on Galnet ).

I wrote already in the CG thread that they should do also some for wings and different proffesions at the same time. Quest based with some events and also a party matching to form wings just for thouse goals.
Stuff that need to collected should be quest items, not realted to normal items.

This would promote open and group play.
ATM CG do promote solo play, who delivers the most or makes the most bountys to reach top tiers. Wing woukld be a drawback and hunting in open with other commanders also.

Also i have limited time to play this game, i want to use it efficent. I see no benefit in a Cg that offers nothing good for me. If you want waste 1 hour ( or more ) doin some trades to get to the top5% or move tiers up to get later a reward of 3 or 5 mil maybe even 20mil and no real good global reward, the time is wasted because you could make more doin something else.
I think only the combat rank is really based on kills while all other stuff is related how much money you did make to progress.

Sure you can do other stuff, take your time and all but to get forward you need to earn money.
After you made Elite, got all ranks, all ships, did explore and made loads of money, whats left ?
Bit shooting at NPCs or palyers or explore more.
Powerplay try to add something for endgame players but fails to make parcipate worthwhile or interesting.
 
community goals are some-what placeholders to make it seem like you are affecting the game, nothing more, nothing less - useless.
 
Well our community goal created a new station and colonized a new system called Sefrys.... sounds like we affected the game to me....

That's the point I was making in my How Power Play has effected CG's Thread. CG's need to have a meaning players can care about. FD needs to embrace the player groups and start gearing content for them...so they have a reason to do them. Notice the last trade CG they just offered. Didn't get past Tier 2. Because nobody gave darn about it. Just shy of 10k tonnes gave me top 5%...pathetic....The Wolf CG I contributed 10's of thousands of tonnes..because it mattered to me....and others....it reached it's top tier...because it mattered.
