New, ship type exlusive missions.

[Chob]

So i haven't played for a few months now, and i saw what's comming in the next update. While new mission rewards are definitely something good the real problem still will be there.

The state of the progress and gameplay in the game at the moment is the following: You start with a small ship and you progress to the biggest ship in the game because it's the strongest, the fastest to make money with. While the small ships like Eagle and the others are rarely used and only used if you are crazy rich and bored so you buy it to fit it super fast to fly around on planets ow whatever.

Missions in the game are core features and requires change. New mission types needed with good money rewards to make the game much more enjoyable, new ship exlusive missions. So lets say there would be missions for small, medium or big ships only. In these missions you should be against the same type of ships, not higher tier ones, maybe if you are doing a mission with a big ship there could be medium or even smal ships, but small ships never should go against big ships. If someone like me prefer to fly smaller or medium ships there would be this option to enjoy the game. With this you could create great RP scenarios FD. Well i hope you got my point here.

I have proposed something like the following long ago:

I would like clients to give me the ship they want me to use sometimes.
I never fly an Eagle for example and it would be an awesome experience if a mission giver would tell me to deliver a parcel using the unmarked Eagle in docking bay 14.

Stuff like that would force me out of my comfort zone and it would add cool new experiences and excitement to missions.

I think this is a great idea, but...I don't think we need more combat based missions, when the mission boards are dominated by them already. I want to see more smuggling missions and more variety of missions.

This, absolutely.
Psst, want to make some money?
Jump in this dodgy/stolen/unmarked/hot rodded Viper on pad 4 and etc.

This would be great.

And this would fit in with the new C&P wouldn't it?

The thing is that the whole mission board has to be redone. Small and medium ships have to get their own role in the game to make the game much more enjoyable. Also rewards have to be fair, they could increase the reward the higher you rank is or something, but the player has to feel that he or she is progressing int he game while enjoying it. Not like now where you trade back and forth or you jump in combat sites which becomes boring in like 2 hours.

Yes, yes it would

I agree. But, passed attempts to make changes to the mission board has gone badly, so i agree that it would need to be totally redone.
