Jovians need to show some respect

As my idea/issue covers several areas - missions/ships/science/trade - I am creating it here in GD.

I happened to look at my standings today and noticed that the Jove Empire doesn't like me. :( Okay. Neither does the Sisters of Eve. The difference is that if I really cared I could run SOE missions and work on my standings. I could also possibly work on getting one of their ships or some other SoE award. I can't do this with Jove. There is no way to "earn" their respect or shown that you have earned it and are worthy of their praise.

This is my idea. We need to break in to Jove Empire and convince them to allow us to do some of their dirty work and run missions for them. This would cover Hi, Lo, and Null sec spaces with awards granted based on risk/reward as usual. The missions can cover everything like normal factions offer and then some. This will allow us capsulers to earn their respect. Some of the awards can be special ships, modules, and other items that can be traded either on the market or through contracts.

During the negotiations between the capsulers and the Jove Empire, some trade secrets can be shared to allow manufacturing of devices that would require support from all secs of space. A really cool weapon could only be created if the person had parts that were created in the different parts of space. Have some fun with it - No Jove Equipment allowed in 0.9 space or higher not even on the market...lol There will be special beacons at the gates that would disable all Jovian Equipment and remove any bonuses the Jovian ships gets.

All though the Jovians are "Gods", they need pilots to worship them like Zeus needed people back in Old Earth Days. Respect works both ways.

Run missions for the Minmatar. You should see your Jovian standings improve... eventually.

The Jovian Empire has agents.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

I'm assuming that the systems are accessible, agents in inaccessible space would be silly.

Most haven't seen a Jovian. All we know is the lore behind them.

Hmm...it appears as if the site for finding agents doesn't work right. I am having troubles finding the Jove Agents listed. :(

Most of the agents are located in Jove space, which is inaccessible to players. The likely reasons the agents show up is simply, that they are included in the data the site uses to get the agent info and are therefore automatically shown with the rest.

CCP Greyscale: As to starbases, we agree it's pretty terrible, but we don't want to delay the entire release just for this one factor.

Yep - I'm 15 just like those who thought we needed to break into China and open them up. The difference is, this is more like breaking into Mount Olympus and learning the knowledge of the Gods.

Of course, I'm not advocating taking all their knowledge. That might ruin the game.

Agreed. The thread appears to be full of folk who don't know that a Jove is a 18ft tall 8 armed mega-donkey that farts ion cannon beams

That's the female specimen only. Gawd, you monkeys need to work on your lore.

There's nothing worse than an EVE player, generally considered to be top of the food chain in the MMO world, that cannot smacktalk with wit and coherency.
