Official Factions also have deserved the following I believe ;
- Their own custom sounds ingame! Imagine you meet 3 Lane Hackers that are just pirating and stop you... they type into the chat (aslong as they are official) /bb and a 15 seconds track of "Bad Boys" will be heared by anyone in the scanner range of the player that activated the command. (I know it's from another disco server but hey, we could implement similar things. We got a lot of Photoshop specialist, maybe we have some that can mix us soundtracks? Or even better, the Official Factions make their own and request it afterwards)
- NPCs on their bases named after the faction members in the bars. As example ;
Imagine you are part of the Official BAF| faction and reached rank two now, you check out the Bar at Battleship Hood and see a NPC that is named after you and your current rank.
That would be a nice feature, though. Would need adjustment at Gamefiles by the dev team (I knoaw D: )
- As example, a system where you can get similar to conn with /fsys
There are several planets where you can only dock with the Official ID of any faction as example;
Armed Forces Planet - You can only dock there if you have the Official ID mounted, this would require every faction that became Official to request / get a Custom ID instead of using the common one for indies.
~ In this System PvP is not allowed just similar to Conn ~
~ It is totaly ooRP ~
On those planets you can dock (if you are part of the matching Official Faction and already received their ID) and buy faction equipment. FE: Scanners , FE: Thrusters and FE: Shields as example.
That are either slightly better then the common ones and/or are eyecandys as they have different looks from the normal ones.
Just came me in my mind. Those planets could also be placed in the RP environment but this was just a thought.
