Justification
Smugglers do piloting missions for additional armor as well so I didn't see any issues with the perks, and I would like space and ground to have more differences. I love space, and I decided to go for reskins because nobody can agree on new ships, so its easier just to say: "Well, just reskin this ship."

I believe its fine if some things work for ground as this game has always meshed many things together (PvE/PvP), and its a long tradition anyways.

I think space deserves more love, as much as people dislike it, it's one of the most unique parts of the game.

Motivation

I had these ideas floating in my head for awhile and wanted to put them to paper, I loved Rogue Squadron and as you can see a lot of ideas came from that game.
I had to do a lot of research and take time to find out the names for these, I hope I didn't mix up Marshal and Wing Commander though, but you can't deny the former sounds awesome.

None of these ideas by themselves are bad, but the way they are put together is not adhering to the purpose of PlayerVoice. As I've said multiple times, PlayerVoice is for one change, not a design document for a system. This is the type of thing you need to work with your Senators on so that they can elevate to the Dev Team.

For the record, these ideas are okay to work from; we've already agreed to separate the ranks for space and already said they might be named differently, so sure, this is a decent advancement towards that idea, but you're trying to do game design in a place that wasn't intended for game design. We can't action this because if there's one thing someone disagrees with, they could downvote the entire thing, and then we can't understand what the actual issue is. Moreover, this proposal isn't actionable because there's too much here that we'd have to dissect separately in design discussions (armor, items, and abilities).

Also, as a general note, if we're going to be adding ships, we're adding ships. We don't care if "you all" can't agree on them. Reskinning is for modders. We are a development team.

If we keep having this issue, we're going to have to take away your PlayerVoice permissions. I highly recommend working with your senator and discussing in the space channels on Discord to arrive at a general consensus before posting PlayerVoices.
