Had a thought about a star dies and the whole system shuts down for a week until a new star is born.
Lets just say its basically lock down from traveling through and all stations cannot be used. But all players have a timer or some what to know when to get out and take what they need until it reopens again.
This can introduce more strategic traveling although this could introduce more gate camps in certain locations.

I know stupid this may sound and will never happen because there are tons of factors this will cause to the players in eve..

Just a thought.

yes, I know how unrealistic this is, but maybe it can be implementated somehow? But it will never happen.

So if I live in this system I am just SOL and get cut off from my stuff?

Only God knows. Nothing to do with knowledge of mankind.

AND BOB DOES NOT CARE FOR YOUR MORTAL CONCEARNS! (or is this in k-space in which case we'd need to ask STEVE)

But yeah i feel this post lacks any form of merit because no "why" is disclosed and the "why not" involves people who cant leave a region or a even a single system for a week...

but yeah natural events in eve are still lacking i can see a supernova happen in jita blocking the system for a coupble of days or a week intresting toughts tho

perhaps make sutch events happen in the most busy systems (doenst always have to be a sun exploding)

I sure hope this will never happen. This is outrageously stupid. A star can indeed die in EVE, but the system then should be devastated for eons to come. It would have system-wide AOE damage, harmful effects on ships/structures, planets/moons should have been blasted away and stargates malfunction. Nothing long-lasting should ever be re-/constructible in there.

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

Extract the suns nitrogen (sun harvesting) so we can fill up the ships to warp 100 jumps before refilling at a station .
