Well, given that toom kickers are often times just trying to boost for tournaments, it would be nice to penalize them in some way. Sadly the most effective options aren't likely to happen. Either a, they have a robsut random room monitoring regime where they have people watch rooms to make sure that's not happening, or b, they force a matching system that requires players to only be in rooms with similar MRs. Option A costs too much money, and I imagine a lot of people will dislike option B for various reasons.

The fuel re-select is an awesome change. I've been in rooms where I wanted to use forced sorties then the room gets flooded either with super high MRs (2200+) or super weak (~1500) meaning you either have little chance of scoring well, or little chance of clearing the mission with an S. You end up wasting fuel if rooms sort out that way. Resorting the sets I guess just doesn't register with me. I only have the four spots you start with anywya, but I can see how it would be useful for those who bought the expansion sets.

Any definitve word on planes yet? Or possibly part upgrades?
