Tempest improvements
Kallo will probably have a fit and go all depressed on me for attempting to tamper with his precious tempest.... But... If I can make one improvement to the tempest, I would remove the conference r...
I have a couple views on this:
1) Conference Room - wholeheartedly agree. I actually like the conference room and wouldn't want it removed, but believe it should be a gathering place. As you exhaust your crew member's conversation trees, they tend to hang out our more and more in the area where you do AVP, Research/Dev, Strike Teams and Trading. They actually get in the way. I'd prefer they wandered upstairs and had their conversations and wanderings about up there.
2) Sleeping quarters - well, I'm a submariner. Fast attack submarines. I slept in a rack smaller than an MRI tube and shared it with 3 other people (100 people on the sub). So, I have real-world experience in this. The Tempest isn't the Enterprise. It was designed fast and sleek for a small crew. They (the Salarians) also didn't design it to take on Peebee, Drack, Jaal, etc. It was meant for a Pathfinder team, something like what you begin with at the start of the game. So, I have a hard time agreeing with folks on this one 🙂
3) I don't think they meant for us to pick it apart. It's like most things in the SyFy genre, you have to be careful how nitty-gritty you get. How about Serenity. How the heck did they fit all those people on that ship throughout the movie when it's the same size or smaller than the Tempest?
I actually just heard a conversation between Cora and Jaal about arming the Tempest. All those big, fancy windows means the structure isn't tough enough to take the force of a main cannon.
