Remove slot limits from industry facilities , and then don't base the cost on activity in a specific facility, so that we can be running 10,000 concurrent manufacturing jobs from a single small POS.

Change material calculations from increases above base to reductions from a higher base and create new ways to lower material requirements such as POS and outpost bonuses ... because, you know... round(round (4 * 1.1111) * .85) = 4.... Right? RIGHT? Oh, no big deal, we'll must make the second round a ceil to only round up.... Because , you know, ciel(round(5*1.11111) * .85) = 5... right? RIGHT?

Create an advisory board that is elected by and represents the 10% of players that are in the largest and most powerful alliances, and listen to them and their ideas on game redesign, so that you don't have to be concerned about the 90% of players that actually operate in small corps and alliance.

Give the cloak infinite duration and no cap usage, so that I can effectively shut down all activity in an entire null sec solar system 23.5 hours a day, because there would be no way for the residents to know if I'm at my keyboard or not and NOTHING they can do to find me... it would be the ONLY time you're i space and perfectly safe, while having massive effect on large numbers of players, many of whom will emo-rage quit over the utter powerlessness to deal with my ubber cloaky camp.

Agreed. This summer's "expansion" has WAY too many bad ideas, coming all at the same time.

CCP, one horrid idea per release, PLEASE!

Bad idea:
Pushing out new POS manufacturing/research processes/mechanics BEFORE re-do'ing POS's in general.

Go through enemy lines in a pod so the NPC navy won't shoot you.

CODE is just a bunch of pirates; smart, organized pirates. It doesn't help to rage at them because that is exactly what they want. Dust yourself off and get back on your feet, you don't even have to talk to them.

Every time you undock, there's a 1/1000 chance that there's a little trail of toilet paper stuck to the bottom of your hull.

Let's discuss overhauling the way we get intel in EvE.

Every time you are docked in a station, you have to pay ISK/hour, and any additional rent for total assets will be automatically factored into the cost.


...

wait, this sounds like the industry changes, I totally did not mean to do that.

Ship skins that register as one hull-size larger ("'Pufferfish' Small/Medium/Large/Capital Obfuscation Skin"), or one hull-size smaller ("'Anglerfish' Medium/Large/Capital/Supercap Obfuscation Skin") on off-grid dscan and probes.
