Disclaimer: I seek no speculative responses or personal desires from the community, nor am I interested in discussions on balancing this topic for now (That's for CIG to address with our feedback if it ever becomes part of the game). My sole aim is to obtain an updated confirmation or denial directly from an official CIG Staff Member. Nevertheless, you are welcome to discuss this topic further in this thread. Given the controversial topic, I would like to ask everyone to keep the discussion civil. Dear CIG Team, The most recent information I could find regarding the AI Crew topic dates back to October 2020, wherein NPC Crews were confirmed. My question now pertains to any changes in this stance over the past three years. More critically, I'm interested in knowing whether a Capital Ship owner will have the capability to fully staff their ship with NPC crew, particularly for manning turrets. I will appreciate any response provided. :slightly_smiling_face: Update: Thanks to @digthat32 for collecting all known information in his video he shared on YouTube. I hope we will see something like this or at least something similar somewhen in the Verse! https://youtu.be/ix_ARf_nRWY @CIG: When will that cookie problem be fixed?
