"Elite factions"

[teschy]

There are many things that don't make sense on Disco, as you might be aware of. And some of them are more disturbing than the number of Hellfire Legionaries on the server. Like, I dunno, the fact that everyone and their mother have an Osiris, and that there are 60 juggernauts in space, that corsairs and outcasts have capital ships and the GMG have battleship turrets? Those are just brief examples.

You know, I have reason to believe that the people who founded these factions have long left Discovery, and that their factions were very different in their beginnings to what they are today. The problem is that you're dealing with people, and sometimes no matter how hard you work for getting in a faction, the leader might simply not like you, and reject you. And even if that's not the case at this particular moment in time, it could happen in the future.

This is from a dev's perspective. You build a faction, you integrate it in the mod, it's part of the mod so it should be standardized. Why? Because that's how the rest of the factions are. If the faction is in the lore of the mod, then it means that people are familiarized with it, they can inform themselves about it from the game directly through infocards, rumors and all that, and therefore can play legitimately without having to forum lance or to 'prove themselves' that they're 'worthy' enough for it. Just like Gallia was implemented.
