Logo billboards

Now that factions have logos, you should make some of those neon billboards incorporating them and stick 'em outside stations :D

draugath mentioned it in 100 last night, but it'd be nice to see the logos in the faction standing area.. or at least plugged into the "faction info" area being that most corporate factions have no info. This also allows players to check all faction logos without having to be at a specific factions station..

I don't understand why all the UIT subfactions have their logos as stylized English words when everything else is in GTS. If the entire UIT used English there'd be no need for GTS.

But yeah, +1 advertisements for corps in-game. I don't think any of the actual companies that own stations are actually mentioned in any of the existing GTS ads.

TRS, do you expect the artist to implement shields? No? Then get your own thread.

Adding the logos into the faction info/standings area was suggested when I was online, and totally makes sense. I'm not sure why we missed that the first time.

Adding them into space around stations is a bit more involved, but perhaps :).

English vs GTS.. we had already been showing the faction name in english for a decade, so I figured changing it to logo form was the best bet. A big part of the reason is to give some sense of differentiation between stations and the like. Making them GTS would make that less easy to understand, which would not be so good for newer players. But, maybe down the road we'll have logos that are mixed GTS+English or something.

Wait.. if most of the game's neon billboards are in GTS.. then the logos that incorporate the "english word" as a logo would make it confusing.

I am confused in that some logo's incorporate 'ENGLISH' instead of GTS

One's I've seen are Axia, TPG, Xang Xi... I'm sure there are others.
The logos which are images (coruvs, serco, etc) seem 'in line' with the rest of the game (ie: no english)
