    Here we go...the "real" reason for balancing ground/space is PvP:

    Only 5 years LATE! :D

    I guess Cryptic does operate in a 5 yr cycle...their to do list must be real long. Wonder when Defera maps might be fixed? another 5 years?

    From Link:

    "Balancing: To support the new War Games system, we’ve created a Player Potential system that will match you to other players in a brand new way. Our goal is always to ensure that every decision a Captain makes is an effective one. With that in mind, we’ve made many changes to space combat that encourage Captains to explore new aspects of gameplay. These changes will go live with Season 13."

    Is this going to be like Neverwinter with Gear Score and whatever they replaced GS with?

    Hints towards a reputation system perhaps.

    So the game is going PvP? Cryptic is gonna make players do PvP? What a load of felgercarb. Starting to seem like the game is pulling that dumb idea from SWTOR, (take away everything the player has, had and working on, and make the player re-collect all of it). From now on, I'm NOT sharing my cookies.

    How is competitive PvE. not PVP? You're literally playing versus other players.
