Ground loadouts

Unless I am completely missing the obvious, the load-out system doesn't work for being on the ground. I thought it would when load-outs where first announced.
I personally have no other use for ship load-outs than to use them for insurance in case my tray or equipment ever gets messed up. I fly 1 ship per captain and as I upgrade the gear I just re-save the load-out. Ground is another story for me. I have a Voth setup, a Borg setup, a Tholian setup, and a "none of the above" setup...all with different armor, weapons and shields. Being able to use a load-out to change between them would be a great QoL enhancement for me.

    It would for me as well but one thing to worry about is what happens to the Boffs when you start messing around with your equipment. I would suggest that in addition to saving your own gear, saving a ground loadout also saves the current setup of every one of your boffs (including who's up on the active roster) just so that you're not having to re-equip them or, worse, having to improvise at the last second for an FE or battlezone.

    Secondly, they should fix the ship load out feature before implementing a ground one.

    I agree, the BOFFS should also have their loadouts saved, as I change them as well depending on the mission. I understand that some people are having trouble with the ship loadouts, but I am not, so personally, I want a loadout system I can use/have trouble with :)

    Would love to see a ground loadout system too. Especially with all the new kit pieces and parts we have to play with now. Takes a while to swap from one loadout to another. Fingers crossed they release it with the next update :)

    Good, ask for a new loadout when the old one is still bugged as hell. Now, we can have 2 loadout systems that doesnt work :P

    After they fix space loadout, ground one is very welcome.
