First of all, thanks FD for gifting me several new paint jobs for my Asp when I bought a new one. Its like buy one, get 4 more free. This should really be advertised.
Factions Audio Cues.
On arrival at a base or starport, why not be greeted with "Welcome Baron to our Imperial Starport", and "Salutations Admiral to your Federal Starport"?
I think this would acknowledge and reward something for all the time it takes to rise through the ranks, and it would remind players of how they are viewed within their faction.
It might encourage people to Faction Military Rank Up, as well as pat them on the back when they get a high rank. Its an easy way of giving instant respect to commanders.
Faction Contexts
For Imperial it would be "our" base/port/high commander - as it very much a collective hive mentality - like we made this.
For Federal it would be "your" base/port/high commander - as they think the government is more of a service to the people - like you all made this.
For Alliance it would be "the" base/port/high commander - as they think independently, everything is independent - like its the base, the commanders, the outpost.
For Anarchy it would be "this" base/port - as they dont have any leaders, everything would be an object rather than subject - this outpost not belonging to anyone.
If there was a Theocracy or Religious faction, it would be "our fathers" base/port
If it was Communist, it would be "the peoples" base/port
If it was Socialist, it would be "the co-operative" base/port
For an Aristocracy, it would be "our sovereigns" base/port
For Oligarchy, it might be "the crowns" base/port
For Gynarchy (all women) or Spiritual faction it might be - "our lady's" base/port
For plutocracy it might be "the right honorable" port/base
If it was a Military faction, it would be the name of the installation e.g "the K9576" base/port
This would give context to flying from one port to another, as at the moment, everything feels the same, with no variation.
