Could Forward Stations Let You Do More?
So what if a forward station (I think that's what those Dr Robotnik things that fall from the sky are called) could let you collect your AVP and deploy your strike teams?
This would be in addition...

I believe there are the obvious littles choices, which also seem the ones that are easiest to implement:
- Research
- Accept AVP stuff
- Manage APEX stuff
- Access to your personal e-mails
They could be upgraded, as you said, each upgrading adding a new function to it, but nothing too extraordinarily expensive either.
Your middle two were the main ones I was thinking. I thought about the research but then felt like I could go either way on that as I could see it being valid not to be able to do full on research and development on the field just as I could see it being valid to be able to do so.
E-mails would be good though as well. And you're right. It shouldn't cost as much as a full on weapon or anything, lol.
And yes. My plan to pull you in worked! I mean... uh, good to still see you around PandaTar, lol.
But I was curious as to if others thought this would be doable and a reasonable compromise.
hey panda.
just when you thought you were out, we pulled you back in...
i honestly thought it was a tad odd that we actually couldn't do any of that from forward stations. and strangely enough there are like 2 forward station that actually have research panels. so why don't they all? though i think they were at outposts, voeld &, um... the colony at the krogan world (the one i'm not even going to try to spell)

Story of my life.
Something else about it could be having a little more freedom at picking the locations as well. We could have, say, an additional 5 forward stations for spare (total) to place on some specific locations if we chose. Voeld and Eladeen sometimes look so vast (and empty).

You're right! I forgot about those. I noticed it once before but I kind of shrugged off. And this would be a good compromise and better than leaving the planet.
SAM: "Pathfiner you have new e-mail."
Ryder: "To space and further!"
Squad Member: "First off, pretty sure you just mucked up some popular line..."
Ryder: "No, it's original. I came up with it all on my own."
Squad Member: "AND TWO... we're supposed to be looking for those missing colonists that are going to try to control remnant."
Ryder, while looking dramatically heroic: "But Amazon... waits for no one."

More freedom with where to place them? Are you also suggesting a more limited number of them? I think they didn't let us place them anywhere because they felt certain conditions should have to be met in order for a station to go there and they didn't want us to be bothered with trying to figure those intricacies out.
Like they were trying to make things easier on us but I could be wrong.
Also, they probably didn't want people putting forward station right next to enemies to they could fight them with unlimited everything. (though there is a part in the game where that practically happens)

Yeah, that's why I said some 'specific locations', as if they were also places you could have a FS, if needed, so you had a limited number of them for any purporses you, THE GODLY GODDAMN PATHFINDER, need. ^_^
