You want to screw up fed parking?

A player can only sell weapons at a shop that buys the same weapons.

Actually. I think I'll do that tomorrow on beta.

I thought of that but I didn't think it would fly. I don't like it as much but lets see it happen.

Actually I've now implemented this in beta:

A weapon shop can only buy weapons of the same power level as those it sells.

E.g.

Creonti Weapons 2 sells Creonti Mole Missile (Level 3), and Creonti "Big Daddy" (Level 4). It therefore only buys weapons of level 3 or 4.

A whole bunch of good ideas here mainly the one about putting back a reason to fight. I think either the bounties need to go back up or we need to see the experience increase come back to something decent. Right now If you get 3 kills u might gain 6-8 k. Nothing special for a HUGE risk, whereas you could trade in a psf everyday with almost no risk and do that... I know we all like traders and we need them, but make a point to getting in a warbird. Warbirds=fighting, fighting=interaction, interaction=fun.

Exp isn't the only thing you gain from killing ships - you're also costing the enemy alliance money if you kill warbirds (or traders), and gaining some money from the kills (not always significant), and there's the tactical gain to consider as well.

I would rather go along the lines of making things easier to fight as opposed to making it more worthwhile.

That weapon shop thing is just plain evil curu :D.

I like a lot of the ideas, not sure about the 2v1 acc bit, but I see how it could help.

I took a calculated risk. Unfortunately, I am bad at math.
