I'm bumping this thread.
I dislike the solution that in order to "fix" what is now considered just outdated game design for any modern online experience you have to sequester yourself and not use one of the community aspects that made CoX good in the first place.
I COULD make my own SG and store all my own stuff in it, but why should I have to do that and not have a real SG with a diverse group of players to pull from.
Yes I already know someones going to reply with "We have discord, we have LFG, you don't need a SG" part of what makes a game like CoH good is the encouragement to socialize and make friends to do stuff with.
+1 please slap an ATM / Vault on a bunch of the maps and let us put Salvage, Recipes, Enhancements & Influence in them.
