So I was thinking as another one of my ideas I fire off frequently, why not have a game mode purely for experimentation and casual gameplay. In classical sandbox format a player can pick any ship they desire, with all modules available and of course picking opponents to slaughter or to test on with various ranks.
For example, I could get a corvette, put a certain weapon set on it and pit it against an Elite anaconda and see how my weapons fare. if I don't like the weapon set I can just simply change it so that when I use it in game it doesn't result in potential loss of ship.
NOTHING is earned through this...purely for training. consider it a custom challenge mission. I suppose even having enemies in waves but more advanced would be fun! this would also be a relaxing approach for a bit of fun. the option of bringing wingmen in would multiply that fun. just killing things without any care or stresses of any in-game involvement. I am pretty sure a lot of folks would love to take their anger out on some belugas and orcas hehe
maybe Capital ships could be added for training in single handed routing of ships (done this a lot, not fair I get paid only 150,000 for doing ALL the work!!) but going 1v1 on a capital would be an intense scenario.
planet surface maps with srv and sentry skimmers would be nice too I guess. so much to add on...
So fellow commanders, What do you think? not my worst idea eh?
