I always see people saying they will just have an NPC do this and that... 1. Will they really that effective? 2. Will they really be able to do everything a player could? (can they take off a carrier, can they effectively fly well you command, etc? 3. Why would you get such a large ship if you plan to fly it basically alone? The game is so much more fun with friends! - This one is a big one for me, why do so many people wanna do things alone, especially in larger ships? 4. How long will it be until we have the ability to command a bunch of NPCs on a ship? Will we ever really be able to do this?
