3.) Graphical and performance improvements
4.) Reputation system with factions improved
5.) Missions revamp
6.) AI waaay better than it was
7.) Persistant USS
8.) Maybe the Engineers in 2.1.1
I don't see your #3....everything looks the same except for the downtuning of hyperspace and the stars look less detailed # 4 I don't know what you mean......Mission Revamp? Mission board? Mission board load times....eeek! AI is better...doesn't mean I like it....lol......Persistant USS? does that mean if you take out 6 of the 12 Vultures escorting that Anaconda and you shut the game down to go for lunch and come back they are still there with 6 vultures and one Anaconda....that would be persistant
Just wanted to complete your list to fit with my own likes of 2.1
