Looks neat. Is it worthwile? What rewards are given for starfighter missions? Warzone comms, by chance?
Credit rewards are scaled to your level.
At lvl 40 I got around 20k credits for victory and 10k exp.
Other rewards are strictly ship requisition and fleet requisition.
You spend SR/FR to upgrade your ship's components.
While you can save up and invest a large chunk of FR to acquire a new ship.
The biggest issue is that some new players are not really fighting on equal ground at all with the mines, repair drones, fast-lock missiles and the dreaded rail gun that kills in 1.5 shots.
You only have 2 options - Scout or Strike Craft. The basic Scout may seem like an eggshell (TIE Fighter) - but it is more survivable due to top speed and ease of movement - fly in hard to hit area, and never ever engage in a fair fight. In fact, flying in open space should be minimized.
People who fly basic Strike ships are basically exchanging speed for additional armor and sub-par lock on missiles - which isn't gonna help much since people land easier hits on your slow plodding ship - and all the other noobs gotta do is fly away - your turn rate will never keep up - and blind side you once you've given up the chase.
Also, Team DM is probably where the new players will die often.
Domination on the other hand is more doable - fight for control over 3 satellites.
I do have to say I'm disappointed when I discovered my Sith characters do not share the same ship. Hence you need to pick one main to fly in. There's no way I'm going to enjoy flying in an unupgraded Scout again when I reroll the Assassin. Minor gripe - but kinda disappointed.
