I like the ideas in this thread.

DMC you are correct CCP and even myself have done lots to get more people dwelling in npc 0.0. I agree with the lower concord response times to 0.1 systems.

With 0.0 I have always felt it was up to the players to form their own Concord and assist a limited amount of people and police NPC 0.0 areas. A blue community that can thrive in npc 0.0 will draw lots of attention which means more pvp opportunities. I've now accepted that most people want a magic unicorn to appear and open a wormhole that leads directly to the jita undock.

I find the threads where people complain about lack of content extremely silly. I've come to the conclusion that lots of pilots don't understand we are in a mini universe where we can have a part in creating content of our very own.

Maybe we need more NPC 0.0 type systems where blue parties will have to build partnerships in order to do mega combat sites. if the sites are rewarding then im sure people will jump at the chance to have a look.


so you live in null and want concord to be put into lowsec this wouldnt affect your game at all, on the other hand we have highsec players wanting to turn lowsec into highsec without any consideration to the people who live in lowsec.

what exactly is your issue with lowsec considering you dont even live in lowsec?

Calm down miner. As you pointed out, people think they can get away with stuff they would not in rl... Like for example illegal mining... - Ima Wreckyou*

"Please expand more space. Please add more systems.
Please increase the amount of systems already in game, by 300%.

Thank you."

Fixed it.

IMO,LS could use improvement.

They are geographically a very narrow band and have many restrictions on engagement mechanics, alongside rather poor system value or opportunities to develop them.

They try their best to interfere with the enormous volume of material transport between HS/NS, but there are many ways to bypass their efforts, and the engagement mechanics tie their hands.

Honestly, I feel bad for the guys living there, and wonder if they might all not be better off re-locating to NPC Null instead.

I dont see LS living up to what I see as its design purpose as a buffer zone between HS/NS either.

(Not including Faction Warfare systems, which I think are more inline with what LS "should" be.)

Even with the addition of Alphas - don't you guys still find it kind of empty?

They really, really don't need to expand the universe. The one thing I do agree with is that it could actually stand to be reduced in size. There are a few ways to accomplish this, but I'm not sure offhand what would be the easiest.



If they made the space just more null Or losec I would agree, however new and different space would be an excellent move, even if it makes our gatecamping "friends" sad as they get fewer easy kills.

You could have some sort of jove spatial distortion event which pushes some stars together to twin star systems which have minute special properties like baby WHs , reducing the overall number of systems but not destroying assets

CCPlease fix the markets. I don't care about less space or more space - just productive space...

If average # active players is declining, the cluster feels bigger, space feels more empty, less of everything is going on around you.

I think putting some areas off-limits would be a last-ditch effort to force more player interaction among the remaining players, after other methods of bringing in more players have failed. Along those lines I'm concerned about "#EveIsDying" implications of this statement in the "Next steps in NPE" CSM meeting notes (pg 40):
CSM notes wrote:
CCP replied that there had been considerations for making each empire just have a single starter system and school instead of three. The CSM was generally supportive of this idea.
It's easier to support 1 per empire and explain to new players where they should go, but if feels like a step on that road, making EVE smaller.
