Hey everyone,
Since the Devs are always saying they listen to player petitions, I would like to ask that everyone who is interested read this post, and then, if they agree, send a petition to the Devs in game.
I would propose that SGs be allowed to "purchase" NPCs for their base using prestige. These would be similar to the NPCs that populate CoH, including the door missions, City Hall, the Tailor Shops, and the Hospitals.
Step 1: Pick an archetype. Male Scientist, Female Cop, Female Doctor, etc. It is not important to build any costume or appearance generator into these NPCs. Simple archetypes would be enough. If the Devs wanted to be cool, you could pick their name.
Step 2: Place the NPCs. There should be three types, I think. Stationary (you place them and they stand there), Room Roamers (you place them and they wander around that room only), and Base Roamers (they wander all over the place).
That's it! Simple, and terribly cool, I think.
Anyway, fifty petitions might make a ripple. Spread the words to other SGs. A couple hundred petitions might make a wave.
