forgot my favorite....
NPC pilots in missions who are supposed to assist the players, sit there and watch you get your butt blown off, without ever moving.

I think alittle clarification on #3 is needed. People seem to be taking it as damage level of PvP in general, but being the almighty captain of the Crimson Flare, I'm thinking you mean it as huge multiplayer ships being the same toughness as a master level fighter, even though they need a crew of 5+ to work them properly. Which were you going for? Or a combination of both?

I'm talking about across the board balance.
Interceptors should get their advantage in their size and speed but shouldn't be able to kill an MP ship or a bomber in one hit.
Bomber should get their advantage from their heavy armor / shields but lose their mass advantage to the speed and size of the interceptor
MP ships, as you pointed out, require more to use and that should show in their effectiveness both in firepower and reilience.

I highly agree. Specifically with the MP ship balancing. Also with this across the board balance either allow us to have all ships as a tier 5, (ie: finding ships that are only tier 1 for us in Kessel and Deep Space as Tier 5 and out flying our master ships) or put the same restriction on NPC that you have on us.
