It came to my head once, wha twould the game be like if the scenario Server would have a different rankign systems?
Say everyplayers starts midshipman at the beginnign of each round, and there rank goes up and medals earned the natural way. But With much less requirments
Meaning the game wouldn't become a smuch of a race to Sy, plyers will have to fight in the smallest ships during the game before acessing the highers ships and around the end gam would see the stations poping out
Like that, every player start equal to each other, and earn there way up in the round
Any toughts?

Sounds like a plan.
Only worry is that ppl would stop playing the MV in favor of Scens.
And I still want a target rich MV environment.

For the first 30 minutes of a scenario I normally just cap and keeping infantry on a few key planets. I get almost zero pres for it but I do it because it helps the team and I know it will make for better battles later when everyone has a shipyard. With this system there would be little incentive for people to do it. Everyone would just turn into a stat whore.
Also frigate vs frigate combat is among the most boring things to do in darkspace.
Kind of blows for anyone joining late too.

One prob: the length of SV would need to be increased to accommodate this, to allow ppl enough time to reach high enough in the ranks. but not to much time as to having everyone be a GA or M. However, it is a plausible idea

Don't blame me for the frigs XD
im jsut tryign to find a way to avoid SY race and having the noobs whoa re stuck in the smaller vessles get insta poped by 2 or 3 jumping dreads and station
Becasue noobs want there prest "SO BAD" they gonna suppy The whole way to dreads, so you end up havign a fleet of suppys and 1 dread VS a couple of dreads lol
Maybe thats what we actually need, "Stats whores" People will need to get the combat, tranny, bombing, suppy engi etc medals if they want the better ships
