Another method of income would be that Master Artisans could effect repairs on the vehicles. It is a player driven economy after all. Why can't a player who can build a vehicle from scratch not be able to repair same? Artisans would be required to hang out at a garage and perhaps have crafted a vehicle repair kit.


Also Maybe a new Professional vehicle tree is needed. Like the Armorsmith or weaponsmith. And shouldn't something as complicated as vehicles be built in parts? I suggest a tree broken up into these four sections.


Customization Frame Engine Body.


The customization would enable color patterns and decals. The frame would encompass handling, class(tracked, wheeled, hover)and terrain negotiation. Engine would take on land speed and water speed. Body would be the shells of these cars.


Quests could be used for certain aspects of a *special* decal pattern or color ingredient formula or frame and engine design.

i like the idea...


I think they should test out all the starship upgrade stuff on the vehicles we have now...give them time to test it out.

In 63 viewings, only one person had something to say? Is this an idea that has been beat into the ground or does no one like it?

I think the problem is that there isn't always an artisan at a garage, like there isn't always a medic at the hospital. Or, it may turn into a grinding-fest if repairing got you experience. People would be pulling their vehicles in and out just so they can get xp for repairing them each time. I don't know, maybe I could be wrong.

Vehicle engineer was mentioned by the devs a couple of moths back as a profession they would like to add in. This Im sure would include new vehicles as well as custom jobs. I havent heard anything on this for a while. Maybe we'll see it with SE. /shrug

way more vehicles = way more fun.

Maybe we could have race arenas too, that would be great.

Can you say Publish 11, Vehicles Rebuilt?
