Noticed that reqs to use hive and uggie supp station is waaaaay lower than reqs to use icc supp station(gold almost everything).
Any devs wanna tell us if this is working as intended, and the reasoning behind it?
Last time i heard, icc supp station wasnt the be all end all that the reqs are trying to tell us. [ This Message was edited by: Faustus on 2010-10-19 11:06 ]

If you're a Fleet Admiral and don't have at LEAST a Gold Star then you don't deserve to fly a Dread, let alone a Station.
Try earning it.

Find some other thread to go off topic in.
The question was: why arent the reqs the same, and shouldnt they be?

well the icc station does require a little more micromanagement in terms of shields but so does the rest of icc ugto and kluth can just spam shift - y not as easy for icc , but overall not much reason to change it you should have gold star by then anyway..

Dont assume that i feel ICC station reqs should be lower.
Im talking about the reqs not being the same, for what basically is the same unit.

Ok, you wanna know why? Here's why. Because the devs haven't had the chance to make the other stations catch up with an exploiting/griefing/laming/QQing/whinging population who want everything handed to them on a silver platter. But don't worry - when they raise the reqs for the stations & Assault class dreads, I'm sure you'll be quite satisfied with the requirement that people actually learn & play the entire game instead of treating it like some powerleveling epeen fest.

How depressing.
Is it a commentary on humanity that something essentially simple and non confrontational can incite such intense sounding responses?
