Politician Archive

It is my opinion that large cities should get Starports. While I understand why we wouldn't want tons of cities to have them as it would become rediculous, I do think that if your city obtains 120 residents or more, and has a Master Politician, you should be able to get a Starport.

Why? Is landing in an NPC town and then running/driving/shuttling that big of a hassle? All it will do is help make metropolises even more dominant over any other place on the map, and since a good number of cities are gonna be at spawn POI's (krayt graveyard, kimotropolis, fort tusken) it will just make xp and the event of travel moot. Why even have land anymore just put a 2 klick area around the cities that can be traversed then you need to shuttle to get to the next town.

What is wrong with Player Cities being more popular than NPC cities? NPC cities really have nothing to offer.

If it's not such a big deal, then why is it such a big deal to allow people to take shuttles directly into player cities from other planets rather than having to make two hops?

Well at this moment I believe that StarPorst should be left out till the SE. I would'nt want my town to be that easy a target for raiding parties. I would rather make them work for it a bit. I also see no reason to get all the goodies right off the bat, then there is nothing to look forward to and you'll get bored quicker. Would be like mastering a profession and then complaining about what the point is.... you should take your time and enjoy what this game offers you. I probably could have mastered Architect in a week or two from release but instead let myself progress at a healthy rate and made Master in 2 months. Now I know this is not for everyone but it's good to want more but not good to get it all at once.
