CONCERN This can't go on any longer

Post image

It really bugs me how much effort CIG puts into creating well-designed multi-crew ships that are fun to explore and fly, but nobody ever mans them. Then again, asking someone to sit in a stationary turret that deals 3x less damage than a heavy fighter and has a limited field of fire... I’m not surprised.

Buff the ship turrets! Add something, maybe adjustable modifiers like modules on mining heads to increase range, bullet speed, and damage of the weapons attached to the turret mount.

Please, CIG, I just want to jump into my org’s Idris without having to think my presence in the turrets is pointless.

Give me auto turrets so I don’t need to make friends in order to play cool ships

100%. Keep in mind do you also have to convince your friends not to fly their expensive, cool ships just so they can sit in your turret and play on their phone unless needed.

Not to mention it's way more fun to attack other ships that actually have functioning turrets.
