There was a brief period in MWO when PGI seemed to be interested in guiding the various Factions in their conflicts. Does anyone else miss these?

http://mwomercs.com/...um/317-comstar-

That section of the forums now sits in disuse.... I thought it was a great addition to the game for several reasons:

1) It gives each Faction a focus, rather than aimless border grinding.

2) PGI can add flavor to the game by offering incentives (meddling) with the various Factions (much like Comstar itself does).

3) Potential to create and rekindle the historical Faction rivalries. Clan Jade Falcon has locked the other Clans out of their invasion corridors? Have the other Clans each fight Jade Falcon for one of the leading planets to get them back in the game (at least short-term). Or House Steiner calls in Davion assistance, allowing Davions to directly Attack (and maybe capture) a Clan planet bordering Steiner space.

Ideally, a PGI liason would be assigned to each Faction and be tasked with regularly issuing Intercepts. I would be more generic than the previous Intercepts. Instead of a few days to take a specific planet, make the objective X Invasion or Y Scout wins against Faction _____ over a period of a week. Rewards could vary from a few million C-bills/module to MC or mechbays.

Alternatively, give control each week to ONE Loyalist Unit with the most Invasion matches won during the previous week.
