I was thinking ID's pretty much wont be able to do anything in the CU why not give ID's the abiltiy to neutralize factions... AS in someone goes to the ID and changes the appearance of the person well then Tuskans won't recognize the person and neither will Jawa's so the factions points go to 0...


This will give the ID's another reason to be in the game. They can disguise people.


What do you all think?

Yeah, this idea has been tossed around for quite some time now. It would need careful implementation, but it would reallycome in handy. Ever been doing a theme park and been unable to talk to your contact because of your -5000 Thug faction?


Yeah. It sucks.

This idea resides on our wishlist for quite some time now... maybe we will see it happen one day... hard to tell.



May the Force be with you all!

For this to work itshould alsoneutralize all yourfaction points positive or negative. So while it would be nice to loose your -5000 Tuskan faction, you would have to weigh that against loosing your +5000 Jabba faction. Also, if this impacted GCW faction points you could imagine the outcry.


Interesting idea, but possibly a double edged sword.

Yeah, there's no WAY it could be used for Rebel/Imperial faction, could be hugely unbalancing. And I agree about the equalization. Like I said, would have to be carefully implemented.

That would certainly be a very good way of implementing it. I would also like to see it linked to some sort of timer, or have a chance of breaking like ranger camo. I really like the idea of it breaking, seems pretty realistic. Would be cool if when it broke, whoever broke it would attack you, regardless of current standing with them, because they think you are trying to pull one over on them. After it breaks your faction would revert to pre desgisued status.


Like technocan said though, it is very uncertain as to whether or not it would or could ever be introduced.
