Thoughts about Indies...

[Drakaisyl]

Well...i had an Idea (yes again it is me:P) to prevent from the Indiewaves.

Why don't make a central starting base,a spacestation or a planet or whatever. In the Bar of that starting base you could put NPC's,belonging to every faction which is here in the RP forum, such as LSF,LN,The Order etc. If he chooses one Fraction,the PLayer can buy ID of that Fraction with all advantiges/disadvatiges of that faction. in the Equipmentroom of the Base. After that he can undock and take the jumpgate/jumphole to the homesystem of the Faction (New York,Omicron Minor for the examples i mentioned above).In this case the Indie problem would be solved and the Roleplay would be more interesting in my eyes.

The problem with the starting Money,because not every fraction has the same "starting grounds",could be set by the admins,the only work would be,looking what a basically equiped Fighter of that Faction will cost.Perhapes it is also possibel to give the Player a ship with even this basic weaponary etc.
