Give us a real reason to master more than one pilot tree double or triple XP dont mean much once your master give us something that will last...

Let us keep our ship certs.We would still need the correct tier in the pilot tree just not the correct tree..This would work like so..if you master freelance pilot than drop and take up rebel once you hit master you could use your YT-1300 you couldnt use it again until you mastered one of the 3 pilot trees again ...

Interesting idea. Maybe do it so you can only master Freelance and use it as Imp or Reb, and vice versa (Freelance using Imp ship). But not Reb using Imp/vice versa.

How about no? The last thing we need are fleets of Imperials in X-wings and scores of Rebels in Royal Guard Interceptors. Space is the only place in the game where Rebels look like Rebels and Imperials look like Imperials. Let's not screw that up.

Wheres the fun in that, the reason you drop pilot and take up another type (R/I/P) is to try out those ships/skills etc.

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.

I would have to disagree as well. I would like it if we could keep our landing permissions though and a 9 Ace ship only would be nice.

The division of the trees makes good sense, fits a storyline, and provides differences. I don't see what could be added by removing the barriers between the factions and creating one giant "Melting Pot" in space.

I hope they never do that but it seems so likely the way they just tend to completly ignore that some of us don't want to be rebels or imperials (*cough* empire day rewards *cough*)

The only way I'd be in favor of this is if it were a single cert reward, and wasn't allowed to cross faction. When you drop a mastery, you pick a ship cert, and get to carry it with you, until the next time you drop a mastery, where you can change it or keep it.


Still think it wouldn't ever work well, but we do indeed see lots of Corsec Awings and Xwings, among other examples, so it wouldn't be inconceivable.

The Corsec X-Wings and A wings make a certain amount of sense. The Rebellion Is an Illegal, "Pirate", movement. Like most such, there are likely to be a number of people in it just for this reason alone. Not to mention that Pirates, who exist on the fringe, and, may be hanged/executed whenever they are encountered, are likely to use any vessels that come their way. It's not beyond reason that Both the Rebellion and the Empire would employ Criminal Organizations, as well as using vessels of the opposing faction to stage raids, and what not, in an attempt to discredit, or, implicate their opponents.


It seems highly unlikely that either faction would use opposing ships ona regular basis, for standard operations, it would also seem standard that the operator of said vehicle would be treated as a spy, and not granted any prisoner of war status. Thus, a Rebel Pilot in an X-Wing, upon capture by the Empire, could expect to have their ship commandered, and face a swift, merciless, lonely, unremarkable,and unnoticeddeath.

Hmmm...I like the way you think, DarkZenith


A special ship certification for those who receive all 9 Ace badges would be neat. Perhaps something along the lines of a superior fighter...or maybe a special POB...


They would have to fix the *no badges for female pilots* bug, though


Something good, but not so good that we start to only see these ships and nothing else...we don't need any more of that problem.

ahem, the bug is no medals for female toons, not no badges.
