    The new custom battle mode is great to pull friends and guildmates together for pure fun! Now all we need to improve it is to have an option to equalize all equipments used to the same level for fair play, since there are no gains involved after the match, but just purely for fun. So why not go a step further to make it fully skill based for all the participants? This can be done by simply having the leader choose the option to auto-calibrate all items according to the same rarity and level. Eg. all legendary equips lvl 10/20/30/40/50 or all rare equips lvl 10/20/30/40/50, and so forth.

    Support.
    Would be a great way to host tournaments and competitions!
    But it might make regular purchases decrease, since people can play with whatever they like in custom battles.

    I think regular purchases won't be affected, you still need to have the base weapon in the tournament first (in whatever rarity), only after that it will be sync to a standard power level. Also, there is no progression gained from custom matches at all, so people will still regularly level up and get duplicates for the regular games for progression. This is just like clash royale's tournament games where all items get set to tournament standard, and still people spend money to progress normally in ladder matches.

    A cruder option would be if it allowed us to switch our ships to previous mks.

    Good idea! Setting all ships to similar mks can also be done, everyone can feel what it's like to run T5 legendaries on mk1 ships!

    Yeah, I never got to try out the new mk1s. It’d be really fun to load my Epic Turbo on one, or a Rudder. I bet that little boat can really move! :)

    Depends. If you are in the business for quick earnings then yes. If the goal is long term sustainability then improving your product is usually a viable option.

    Aslong as custom battles doesnt generate income this doesnt seem like an issue. Doubt we'll ever see an actual equal and fair playmode though, its not exactly the freemium way :)

    For sure, man! And +1 to this. Let's allow equipment calibration in casual. Can we also have a "party chat board"?

    1st thing I would love to see is 5v5 tournament where as quoted above equally weighed weapons..
    Legendary:tier 1
    Epic:tier 2
    Rares: tier 3
    Uncommon:tier 4
    Commons: tier 5
    This applies to all items...
    Ship mk: 5
