Why couldn't it have been no freelance jacket instead, that I wouldn't miss at all

The only way I see it working is if it was only neutral as the availible path, and even then, only Snuggler or Corsec for Reb, and either RSF or Corsec for Imperial. Absolutely no Reb/Imperial. But honestly, why would you want to? Each path has a good ship for each style of player, so its kind of pointless, although, I guess the Imperials would benefit from a true heavy fighter. Other than that, there really isn't much point.

I still say the only way to tell an imp from a rebel in space is by lookingat the bumper sticker(s) on their jsf or b-22.

I am really kinda torn about this... I want to go Imp pilot but losing my vaksai is keeping me freelance. I would love to keep the cert. However, I don't think this would be good for faction balance. (Imagine a forceof a-wings and Oppressors)


I would definitly like to see a reward ship for 9x ace. Something useful but not game threatening. It should also be easily recognisable.

Its easy to see actually, its Tie Int (or adv, or gasp, JSF) and Oppressors.

I would have to disagree.

Instead, I would like more ships available for all to use. Not just fighters and yatch ships.
Bulk Freighters, Repair Ships, Hospital Ships. I'm sure few would use these. But the option, to have them counts.


Dock, repair, rearmand reconfigure your ships in space.
Heal wounds from a hospital ship. Meet other pilots.




THAT is a good idea. I have to say, I would definitely try to obtain and crew one of those. Most likely a bulk freighter. It would be really fun to do!

Too late treena. I dunno about you, but i can' tell an imperial JSF/b22 from a rebel JSF/b22 unless we're both overt at the same time. If no ones overt, its a stab in the dark as to what the guys faction is.

I would normally mutter something about this situation, but I'll be a little busy learning to pop Imperial JSF/B-22s in my A-Wing. Given what I've seen, I'd trade the ARC for a Advanced A-Wing and faction cert the Actis.

What the Hell game are YOU playing?



If a poisonous snake is dropped on top of you from a gyrocopter, don’t freak out and shoot your own driver with your arrow gun, making the vehicle lose control and blow up. Its probably just as scared as you are.

Could be. I would like to believe that there are more than a handful of people out there who would prefer to fly appropriate ships.

Nonetheless, I still very rarely see the JSF/B22s.

The PvE game. When I see other players, they aren't targets to be shot at. They're usually flying around in the lower level zones. As such, I see lots more TIE Fighters, X-wings, and TIE Interceptors than I do JSFs and B22s. To be honest, I've actually seen more Y-8s than those two ships.
