Higby recently again touched on the types of Outfits that are a possibility. Like standard Outfits that are for many different roles and act like a Private Army.
On the other hand there are vehicle and class based Outfits. These are going to create groups like in the military. Like the 101st Airborne. I have always been interest in being a Galaxy pilot and had interest in create a Galaxy only Outfit for which ever server I land on.
Now the question is, would you give up being in a huge Outfit and getting the standard Outfit cert bonuses just to get specific role Outfit bonuses found nowhere else in the game?
Similarly I think it would be helpful to have a system that allows specific Outfits to be easily communicated to. If a standard Outfit leader is putting together an attack, but he is short on Mosquitoes. He should be able to contact the TR 233rd Mossy Squadron and ask for some reinforcements.
It would be up to them to either send over people or not. This would help Galaxy Outfits too. Because lets face it 15 Galaxy pilots can't go into war alone.
