Discovery Power Creep and MK III Ships

[Garrett Jax]

Cool ideas, but as Spazzy said it would take a lot of work. And, how long would it take before this burst of activity dies back down. Probably too short a time to make it worth the effort.

Some time ago, I brought forth a proposal to the Devs, when the Researcher ID was reintroduced, that would allow people with that ID to locate new substances in random anomalies throughout Sirius. These highly rare substances would allow for stronger armor and stronger weapons to be created on higher Core (6-10) POB's.

This proposal was largely ignored due to power creep. I doubt that the Devs would now want to go that route all of a sudden, as the effort to rebalance the new ships with the existing ones would be painstaking, not to mention the effort to create these ships as well.

It's a nice thought though...
