To the Devs:

You increased the mass on the Oppressor, and for that I will say thank you. However, you will STILL get no love from us Imps until you actually fix alot more that's wrong with being imps. The interceptor alone should have 65k mass, and two weapon hardpoints. You've taken one step, but it is still a very small step. Hopefully, you will continue these steps, and strive to make larger steps. I am not expecting that as an Imperial I can pWn reblels, and be uber. But as an Imperial, I SHOULD feel like I'm a part of the Galactic Empire, as seen in Star Wars: A New Hope, Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, and Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (although, you can leave out the ending completely ). I should feel like I have an army at my back, ready to kick rebel terrorists into their graves. I should NOT be feeling like I'm in a rag tag army going up a much larger force, with my pitiful weapons and pitiful technology.

As for the players, we can debate continuity and such until the cows come home, but bottom line, this is a GAME. It should be just as much fun to be the scrappy rebel fighting for peace and justice (what propaganda! ), as it is to be an Imperial working on oppressing everything that breathes (how am I evil because I'm on the side that actuallly DOES want peace and justice?). To THOSE ends, continuity should be tweaked (you want to be a Jedi, yet you complain TIEs have shields?). And in this case, tweaking the masses to be a little more similar isn't going to hurt anything, now is it?

Thanks,
