Hey, so here is a novel concept for the game, something truly paradigm shattering.
It's called, and pardon me, it's a little rough, but here it is: A reward system. With this, a cmdr's time and effort are, and here's the novel part, Rewarded! Wow.
10k For a scout. Wow, let me get my piggy bank! I can almost see that Adder I've been dreaming of! I hear these are super easy to kill, after I have acquired the proprietary sort of imaginary pew pews that will kill them through a trickle down result sort of process.
Wow, such riches, what shall I do with them. What's this? I can make much much more from even the most pathetic of data mission? Killing the gimpiest imaginable eagle in non proprietary weapon combat? Cleaning lint from my navel? Huh, odd.
Well, for now, much like mining, smuggling, carrying passengers("oh you want to go to Sag A and not that station over there? No prob, my time is free so same price), piracy, trading and my tolerance for a bunch of mostly harmless part time keelback drivers dictating what is or is not sufficient reward for my time and effort; I'm going to stick it over here on a shelf.
Congrats , you manage to waste the efforts of all your talented people who have made something really beautiful, who took all the effort to ensure scout combat looks cool, works decently and is engaging to be wasted, along with all the effort, heart and soul for those creating the lore, piratable mega ships, voice overs...
Look around you . Up and down the halls. All those people. You have wasted their time, their late hours, their dedication; All by making almost every avenue as unrewarding as possible. Good job.
o7 Cmdrs. I'm going to go sightseeing, before they figure out toll booths at Nav Points. Forum dads? meh, clearly the forums are more rewarding for you at this point than the game. Guess hasn't picked up on that either.
