I think they should have only letus make the droid chips up to LvL2 only.

If everyone can Wep3, Eng3, Shunt4, Cap3...than its simply all about mass and guns and there is no imp ships like the x-wing or whatever the freelancer ship is comparable to it. I have a 4433 Imp toon and a Rebal Ace toon, so I get to see this played out almost every night.

If they left the higher end droid commands with the faction, than the advantages would be played out better. Imp ships with wep4, eng4 against reb ships with only wep2, eng2 would make for a more interesting battle considering the shieldcommands would be reversed also and both have the same Freelancer commands.

I think it would be a much more interesting if they let the ship differences be much more prominent.

I always felt they should have locked programs into their factions, unless and until you got a Smuggler to slice a chip for you.

Made it before all hell broke loose.

That would be an interesting twist. Having the Smugglers involved in that whole process. Maybe even have them only be able to hack them from Gunships that will agro if you fail .

But still, I say they need to limit other faction chips to LvL2 to make the factions retain their advantages more and keep their disadvantages where they should be.
