I would like to see something like that:


A small instanced sector, where every player can join easily, and play a battle against other players, without be worried about decay, or repair costs (money and time),must be a balanced batlle, and then, not with our own ships, because then is a zone closed to master and their "perfect" ships.


Something like, you select this sector at starship terminal, and a window appears where you see some battles, for example:

Battle: Defend IMP capitol ship. (more different mission and styles can be done, as escorting from point A to point B some freighters orothers, of course you have other battles to defend REB Cap. ships, or privateer stations...).

Slots: 30 (some mission with more slots or less if necessary).

Conditions: Defend/atack Cap. ship/convoys, others conditions for different Battles...dogfight for a period of time (with ships respawn some time afterbeing destroyed), last ship standing...


Some different missions avaiables when you open this window, you choose one, and enter in a new menu, where you select your ship and team, avaiable ships are atomatically selected by the computer (well, the devs), for example, in this example you have5 Y-wing, 5 X-wing and 5 A-wing if you choose rebel side, and the same for IMP, execept you can change some ships slots, for turret gunners slots at Cap. ship (NPC).

The first player that come in, obviusly choose first their slot/ship/gunner position, when slots are full, the battle is launched, one more instanced battle is added to this sector, for more people start a new battle.



I see this very fun and not very difficult to add to the game, you have the engine, and with this option:


- PVP players enjoy a lot, since the first day, they dont need to make PVE to reach the PVP content.

- PVE player can enjoy too, everybody can taste the feeling of a space battle beetwen real players, without be worried about repair costs, decay, or be killed for players with a lot better ships.

- Masters have new content to enjoy, actually i belive must be difficult to find some battle like that on live game.

- New players can PVP since they arrive to JTL, try differents ships...

- Everybody have something funny to do while they arewaiting, for their friends to join the game and do their missions.

- You improve your pilot tiwch-skill, against good players (the perfect AI), you learn a lot.

- A lot of FPS players can find a great reason to buy the game, they have the style of play they like, and i don`t see other interesting options for a multiplayer space combat game, at least some of them can start to enjoy with ground game, i am here even wheni can´t actually PVP yet (not the onlynew FPS player herei think), with this new content i see more subscriptions for JTLS.

- Dont disturb anyway PVE content, and PVE players.


Thnks for reading my bad english, friendly comments are welcome.
