New Ships and the need

[Shaka]

To be honest? probably not.

Each new ship further dilutes the player base, meaning less and less people fly the same ship. Furthermore, people still tend to cluster around the ships that are deemed "powerful". A solution would be to ramp up "ambient NPC"s" , weak NPC"s that just increase the space population, giving a fairer, more realistic representation of the population. On the other hand, I've heard the server probably wouldn't take that too well.

Part of the problem is the way some people play. Too many people pick their ship and then develop their RP around it. Now in a lot of cases it makes sense. But when someone creates an entirely new character, picks up a supposedly "exlusive" IMG Nyx, this bugs me. So when I ask them how they got it, they reply, "oh I have this amazingly twisty and nonsensical story describing how I acquired this pwnsauce vessel." In my opinion, if people started flying the ships that they were supposed to be flying, we'd have less of a problem.

I apologize if that was a bit ranty.

My 2 cents.

EDIT: The above Nyx flyer is not an IMG pilot as that would make far too much sense for his literary masterpiece.
