don't know if it has been discussed, but i was thinking of the times i am just lolly gaggin in space and thought....


Wouldn't it be cool to intercept a distress call.... <- and a space mission evolve from it..


guess the game would have to do a check for pilot level or scale them according to hyperspace area, and also would have to check whether the pilot is currently in a mission, but i thought it would be different, random, and exciting.


of course the pilot would have the choice to decline the distress signal.

there could be signals in kessel and deep space where pvp could be implemented


discuss?

As long as the distress signal originated from a system other than your current one then it would be a fine addition.

Cool Idea... Add the option of flying to the rescue or finishing them off for loot(cargo)

Could be interesting. Perhapsa limited number of them to keep reward items rare, say once or twice a month.


Rescuing different people could give different rewards with no way to know who you are rescuing when accepting the mission.


(25%) Factional officers you could get extra FP or a factional item such as Imp/Reb Banner, CorSec/RSF uniform pieces (with correct colors) etc...


(30%) Royalty/Politicians could give a decorative item (like the pieces of art)


(40%) Cruise Liners could simply give a cash bonus


And the most rare mission: (Also why you can't know who the mission is from)

(5%) Scientist could give you an experimental component that while powerful and light would have be fragile since it is experimental making it a nice item to have but notreverse engineerableso they don'tput shipwrights out of work. (ex: 3000 power shields that are totally detroyedifthe ship is)

thank you for the feedback, as you see my idea was rough at best, and with your help i think we could really give a nice addition to this game.


i saw quest reward and specific rewards based on origin of distress call.... maybe a storyline like Cries of Alderaan?
