Guard Systems

[Drake]

Well, as you mentioned earlier, all you need is a few missions or a bribe. However, doing that just to access a Guard system is pretty far OORP. I'm not even green to the parent faction, but those Guards leave me alone now and I can land on their high-security bases?

Guard systems which include things for factions which they'd never have been given outside the Guard system is pretty far OORP.

Guard systems full of huge numbers of NPCs buffed up to levels FAR beyond what normal top-end NPCs would have is pretty far OORP. Why aren't those pilots off doing things important to that faction, liking taking over a wide swath of Sirius, as it seems they would be capable of doing?

For that matter, having systems which are completely, totally 100% controlled and inhabited by one faction is pretty far OORP. Even Alaska, the most heavily secured system in vanilla (and technically should be in Discovery as well, even including Guard systems), has multiple factions within it, even if it's mostly under LN/LSF control.

Guard systems which, for whatever reason, offer zero RP opportunities within Discovery should be modified, in my opinion. Or the owners should put more effort into adding RP opportunities to their systems. Systems shouldn't exist for the sole purpose of giving a player faction a place where they can A: Put whatever weird stuff they want their faction to have, or B: Exclude people just because they can.
