Hello all!
Reading some intro's above, I can see that some have had a bad experience in Open Play. It is a pity that such players spoil the game for others, but it seems that Mobius has provided a solution by creating a Private Group where Commanders behave as we might have hoped everyone would have. I have been playing Solo for over a year, but I would like to learn how all the teamwork tools in the game work, and why there are so many. I have not joined and factions, as simply being independent has paid better. Becoming an Ally to many factions in the same station provides many more missions, and increases safety within the area of influence of those factions. As for PowerPlay, it seems like gang warfare in The Bubble ... which I why I like Colonia so much. However ... Multicrew looks like fun, and I could share my knowledge with new Commanders. Wings definitely would be an advantage for high risk/reward missions, and also to combine tools between multiple ships when a single ship simply cannot accommodate all that are necessary. Now, Squadrons are going to introduce yet another level of team play.
So ... I am looking to learn all that I can in a safe environment with like minded Commanders.
Stay safe out there!
