Prestige points for the Pilot professions. Skill points for the Shipwright Profession

I really hope they don't change things and make it skill points . . . you know some folks would forego using them toward piloting and we'd see a rush of uber-mixes on the ground, leading to more nerfing and a new reballance *sigh*

I was at E3 and the rep told me they may give additional skill points with JTL so crafters and such would be able to pickup shipwright.

My impression is that the game is done (graphics, combat and control, etc.) but details like that and are still open for debate. Details and content are the only things being worked on until launch,( and it is a completely seperate team if you did not know so resources are not being pulled from ground game)

The game really looked kick ass, and with almost 6 months to work on polishing it up I have very high expectations.

oh yeah, and from the way I understood what the rep was saying prestige points are not used to advance in piloting professions. They are sort of like a ranking system. He kept saying advancing was content based, meaning you had to complete missions to advance, not just blow up ships......

Ah, cool. I think many of us understood the term "prestige points" to be the alternate points given by completing the missions that would move us up the piloting trees, and the ranking system another thing entirely and as of yet unnamed.

Nono, I'm not disputing you, I'm thanking you for clearing up the confusion for those of us who understood it wrong.

they won't give any more points. Come on. I hope they do.... but they won't. Unless someone at E3 heard different
