OMG !
I played 5 days only focussing on that goal... Just so ED knows how broken that is : I did a community goal for the feds (Banki) like 1 or 2 weeks ago. As usually, I feel a bit betrayed on the empire side. First, fed side had been well thought and was working fine (the global reward was disount on outfitting, and almost none was available before the end of the goal, and after the end it worked perfectly fine and outfits were added to previous ones). Plus, ofc, the fact that this 15% on outfits can just make you save millions in a second (btw, about that, there's still something to do about it when you'd like to sell something available in the station that's already fitted on your ship. If you sell your old expensive one, you can't buy back the brand new 15% reduced one, which seems quite stupid...).
So I thought, in the end, ok, instead of saving cash I'll earn some, why not...? And in addition, Playing on the fed side made me earn reputation (lots, and a rank straight after), whereas playing on empire side didn't give ANY rep.....
Am I the only one thinking that's so unfair ???
Just like the clipper's (impossible to put any decal or skin, why ? Are imperials supposed to be disregarding aesthetic ?) limitations, or the availability of rank missions (that at first were available for feds and broken for empire), I feel (don't wanna cry or something devs, just expressing my thoughts) that fed side is done sooner and better than imperial side.
I'm not asking that you guys from FD do the opposite. But just that things could be balanced, and should be, so everyone would think it's fair. Because if you don't pay attention to that, you can just as well say : playing the empire might make you feel happy, but you'll play with a handicap then. (which I'm sure is not what you want to do, and that's precisely why I'm requiring your attention on that matter, because it's far from the first time I think/remark that)
Is anyone sharing my feelings about it ?
Thanks in advance for your reply devs and players. I love that game so much, sometimes it's hard to handle these unfair stuffs. Thought I'd play a bit after my long late shift, but I'm not in the mood anymore now I know I stayed and fought a dozen (or more) hours in that combat zone for a single 500K reward.....that can be earned in 30 min of trade for me...
