I'm wondering if people said the same about the addition to Gallia when it came about. Or anything new and controversial.
For the record, Gallia looks awesome and it's a wonder why no one ever plays there. Other than the fact that the number of systems is ridiculous.

They do look just plain bad in the Freelancer engine, but will add some good to people who want to play around as aerial pilots.

And yeah, that was what I was thinking was how terrible the land would be. But eh, whatever floats your boat man. And at least something (and at least trying to re-purpose dead systems rather than letting them rot) is better than nothing

Dead systems need deletion, not repurposing. Flying around on planets would create further dilution of players/system, and interactions would decrease.

I'd rather let the children play on the playground than put them in a box, thanks.

Oha! Battles on planet Leeds... that sounds awesome!

Battles on Planet Leeds or maybe have alternate entrances to Planet Manhattan for smugglers would be optimal

Valor spams stuck command between a 'scraper…
It would be very, very hard to implement - unless we have an ex-crossfire dev somewhere.
