Player Features and Ideas Discussion

If anyone remebers the state of the eve economy presentation by the good doctor, one problem he brought forth is that there is too much isk flowing into the economy. I have a potential solution that might also help with the large blocks controlling most of null sec.

Sov bills are paid every 2 weeks on systems with tcu's turned on, the more systems you "own" the more you pay. What about the membership? What I propose is a fee issued by some NPC corp for some reason like administration fees (or whatever BS CCP decides). The size of the fee would be based on the number of members withing the alliance. Small alliances would hardly notice the charge, extrememly large alliances would have fees in the billions per week.



weekly fee schedule:


up to 10 members 10k isk
up to 100 members 100k isk
up to 1000 members 1 million isk
up to 2000 members 10 million isk
up to 3000 members 100 million isk
up to 4000 members 1 billion isk
up to 5000 members 10 billion isk
up to 6000 members 100 billion isk
up to 7000 members 1 trillion isk

and so on




I'm not sure of the numbers of alliances out there, but this should help reduce the isk in the economy from the entities that have, on average, the most isk.

This could be a conflict driver. I can see some mega alliances saving money by spliting into smaller parts. There might be some in fighting or battles between alliances that would open the door to fresh blood in null sec sov.

Just a thought. Let the discussion and trolling begin

The answer to the OP's proposal is "no". The problem isn't nullsec alliances with too much money, the problem is too much isk flowing into highsec.

this is the worst thing I ever seen.

make all normal implants come from LP stores no more story line implants, have low LP high isk and high LP low isk versions of the same implants
this means every implant destroyed is isk form the game lost.
also you could add a few isk to starbase charters in LP stores.

WH's are the problem...

The first rule of WH's, you don't talk about WH's (unless you're in Chained Reactions in which case you're just bad at Eve .. they must be, they accepted my alts old corp )

It should be a comfort to everyone concerned about inflation that the benevolent space guild Goonswarm Federation in conjunction with the greater CFC and the Honeybadger Coalition has destroyed over 3600 ships to the tune of over 300b including many carriers and even a super carrier today.

Anyone else wanna contribute?

I hope you told VR you were shooting blues? I wish I could have been there but as a pubbie I feel I wouldn't have made it further than the first null gate

Do you live under a rock, VR was killed a few days ago. If that was a troll, not cool.

So if I have a 200m smartbombing Scorpion and it gets destroyed, I get about 40m insurance. Let's say 10m in mods drop and someone scoops that up. Probably 5m or so in salvage. Where did the other 145m go?

when you buy a ship, your paying isk for that asset. when that asset is destroyed, the isk you paid to the guy that sold you the ship, is still in his or her wallet. When you buy your replacement ship, that isk goes to whomever you paid for your new asset.

So the isk doesn't leave the eve economy.
