Hello Commanders!
So I have got a few suggestions regarding the squadrons in Elite. What we have now is fairly basic, but getting a more in depth experience with squadrons would be great:
1. First of all, adding an in-game reward system, so I could pay/reward my squadron's members for completing certain tasks or simply paying them for being in my squadron. All squadrons currently work like charities - there's no credits and no profit. This would also add competitiveness between squadrons - who will offer better rewards? I understand why Frontier does not want to implement credit transactions between players, but why not implement it into squadrons? Squadrons could have their own "balance", which the money will be taken out of.
2. Interaction with other squadrons would also come in handy. I know that Inara does this, but it would be nice to have it in game. For example, squadrons could become allies/enemies/partners. They could declare war on one another and so on. This would certainly bring a whole new perspective to the game.
3. More management options. Currently, we just have rank management, the ability to promote/demote and kick members, align with a faction or superpower and change tags. It would be nice to give specific members specific missions to work on, and, as mentioned earlier, having a squadron "balance" which would contain money for rewards and wages.
Just my opinion - these features would definitely bring squadrons to a whole new level! Post what you think.
