I have few things that I'd like to put out there that could really give Powerplay some future potential. feel free to add to the list!
- Capitol Ships in Military Zones, Very strange that with Faction related political struggle the superpowers do not care in the slightest. they prefer to use them on minor disputes instead. Just adding this feature alone would build on immersion.
-PP weapons used by Affiliated ships, Weird how you can use their weapons yet the most trusted members can't?? This would Give PP NPC's some much needed kick and again, build on the immersion factor slightly.
- PP missions, this has been asked of me and others before, I was told that it could really upset the mission system though. perhaps as a side option through PP contacts? seeing randomised political missions for Merit instead of credit would certainly be interesting. and useful to those dedicated to PP.
- unlocked modules at Jameson Memorial, once a unique PP module is unlocked, it becomes permanently available at Jameson Memorial. Meaning you don't have to re-pledge to get the same modules twice.... also extra incentive for CMDRs to become elite.
- variable modules, Size and fixtures are interchangeable with regular weapons. for example Ihammers may come in both size 1 and 2, weapons can come in gimballed and turreted versions of their counterparts as well. making some otherwise useless weapons quite lethal and very efficient for customising loadouts.
-scaled merit, Currently one kill of a Harmless Eagle is the same as a Elite Annie (30 merit for Undermine, 10 for Military zone) wouldn't mid seeing some extra pay for effort. lesser ships can be reduced, larger significantly increased.
-More frequent Expansion/ combat zones (just isn't enough)
-Lower cost on PP commodities, Tis morning I spent 15M refreshing to get enough merit for rank 4, woe to those who don't have nearly 2B in assets.... seems like PP commodities are Made redundant to the less patient, forcing people to do combat. In fact, if I want someone to do something I'd pay them, not have them pay me to do my work??????????? I understand it would stop spamming free cargo for merits, but does it really need to be THAT high?!
Any thoughts?
