Is it our fault that gap exists? It just takes right kind of players and leadership to make it happen.. Easy way to close that gap is to have developer to destroy Dysonians and alienate very smart players like us to drive us out so everyone else can be happy.. Problem solved..

In reality, legion bases benefit EVERYONE not just Dysonians.. Bonus is a bonus.. For example, 10% extra cloak bonus to all planets thanks to base to low ranked legion is same as high rank legion.. Low ranked legion gets better protection when they have base than without.. Bases are purely for defensive purposes to help to reduce the gap between planet strength and ship strength for everybody. Only soloists are shafted.. They get no legion bonus and no base bonuses..

I borrowed this base awesome idea from Galactic Civilization series.. I invested constructors to expand bases for its nice bonuses to protect my entire sector.. Same thing.. We could invest lot of resources into improving our bases (base ranks, etc)... to benefit us.. When base system gets implemented, EVERY LEGION has rank 1 base to start off.. We all have equal chance to take it off. Small legions could rank up their bases pretty much. After all, they have 50 players so are we.. If they rank up their bases faster than we do, that means they are more dedicated than us.. If we rank up our bases faster, we are more dedicated. We shouldn't be penalized for our teamwork efforts period.. Complex parts are just one of example as a resource.. There should be several other type of resources to expand legion bases.. Low ranked legions can still farm NPCs to collect complex parts just like we do. If they can't then that's their problem for recruiting wrong type of players and poor leadership on their part.. Strong leader, strong administration system, strong foundation, strong members = strongest legion as supposed to.. Gap is expectable..

I think legion star base idea would be very exciting and adds interesting facet to the GL and makes NPC system more useful and colorful cuz they finance bases.. Add more missions to benefit base can be added, so go on.. Lot of possibilities.. Even base research tech tree (contributed only by legion not individuals) can be added too..

Yes, it would be good for everyone as long as it doesn't require a ton of those parts. If it required a lot of them almost nobody could have a base. If you could use them for some of the upgrades on the base that would be fine.

well bob if you got any npc bosses you want killed i can stop by and take em out for you im only 89 so i dont have much.

I've been a supporter of the Legion Starbase idea since I first heard it, adding a research tree for it as well as more uses for complex parts just sweetens the pot!

The problem is Noc is that higher ranked players can farm npc's much easier than low levels can. More npc's = more bosses, higher ranked players = less players needing mods = more complex parts.

This is true no matter how you look at it. But you got to think if you had the means to build a bass and upgrade it. It would be the more elite team no matter what that would have the best one. No matter how you set it up. You can't scale because what would be the point of even doing it then. I hope you see what I mean. Like in the real world while the larger and more prosperous nations have the better city's, roads, and army (In most cases) The smaller and less prosperous nations do not. Sure in time they will grow to where the better ones are but by that time they will be even larger. No matter where you go there is going to be a separation like that.

You may have gotten the idea from somewhere else, but I believe I was the first one to suggest legion starbases. You even replied right after me saying it was a good idea.
It's an old post, so many of the ideas are out of date!

In a game like Galaxy legion, someone that wets themselves sitting at the dinner table drooling into their cheerios before they slurp it all up... can be in a position like the Dysonians.

It doesn't take brains.

I personally refused to join a legion in the old system because this is a game.. and as such, i don't want to add random people to my facebook as that would sort of defeat the purpose of facebook.

At the end of the day, it's the people that persivered from the start of galaxy legion that will be powerful, not the smart necessarily. Also, those who spend money will easily gain a rank advantage.

To be honest, this is basically an MMO.. and like any MMO it's the oldest players that are the most powerful. The only problem with that is that all the most powerful players, for the most part, have banded together from what i have seen. That's where the issue lies.

Dan actually changed the "friends are your legion" to the current legion layout. One of the problems with the old way was that if you shared a planet to your friends. Because they were not friends with each other, they all had the capability of taking the planet back and forth (even if you had 50 friends) and there was nothing you could do about it.

I dunno i like the idea, and there really is nothing we can do about the gap, whether you spend money or not you still gotta have a little respect for the top players because out of like 70k ppl they are number one and not everyone can be number one, and yea they banded together because they are smart thus thats why they are basically the rulers of the game. and thats why the rebellion happened it was a attempt to unsit the top players to make way for new rulers.

if the dysonians disabanded right now there would be another group that would take their place, i mean this game relys heavily on strategty and as you can tell noc is good at early game stragety and basically won the match because unless they are quit, split, or get banned the dysonians are going to be the top dogs for a while.

the base idea is great but also another power play because they have a crap ton of complex parts simply because they eat npcs like a fat kid eats hershey kisses. because they know that even if a legion is a head of them they wont be for long and not only will they be the top legion they will have a shiny base to boot basically a trophy as a testament to their overall greatness.

I dont see how that is dumb? its basically the truth whether you or i like it or not.

Cause you clearly never read what i wrote.
