Gutted for you guys that just missed out on top 25%. While I enjoyed the CG and feel the specific circumstances (location, proximity of supply etc) encouraged more varied gameplay and opportunities for working together, there have been some valid points raised about balance and the fact that quite a decent chunk of the contributors have missed out on the main reward. This was touched on a good few pages back but to expand on the idea, what do peeps think of this as a more balanced reward proposal regarding the fsd?
If goal complete, the double engineered fsd is available to buy (only one per CMDR) from one of the new stations in the Coalsack Nebula, at a premium price. So available to all but you have to fly 500 ly to get it and it comes with an increase on your insurance and transfer costs. Module is only upgraded to G1 with both blueprints, so standard engineer unlocks required to get it up to G5 on both blueprints. I remember planning a trip out to Maia as a noob in an Adder and thinking it was a huge deal, so available to all but you have to put in some work for it and pay a small cr penalty for the privilege.
Top 75% CMDRs receive one, fully engineered, for free, and it can be transferred to you from the Spirit of Nysa.
Top 25% receive three, fully engineered, to use as they see fit, essentially getting a qol bonus over those with only one, and a better spread of the reduced transfer / insurance costs.
I dunno, I think something like that would have seen everybody happy after the event. Exclusive content should be kept to cosmetics imo.
