Jita Park Speakers Corner

There are already 2000+ wormholes systems for those that want nerfed local. Your wish has already been granted, so go probe down a wormhole, enjoy some small gang fights, and get hilariously wealthy off gas clouds and Sleeper loot. Also, no blobs, supercap or otherwise, no jump bridges/drives, and no sov grinding.

Seriously, what you are asking for already exists, and makes up a third of the systems in the Eve universe.


Removing local, jump bridges and jump drives will not improve nullsec. If you think it is empty now, implement those ideas and watch as sov nullsec becomes completely depopulated. No one is going to pay sov taxes for space that has less benefits than npc nullsec or w-space.

But if Moongoo is so pivotal in the operation of the average alliance, then having all of it on the hands of but a few stifles conflict as strong quickly becomes untouchable due to the infini-ISK of goo.

Having a feudal system like we have in Eve is perfectly fine, but it should have been allowed to develop on its own and not appear out of nowhere due to mechanics.

Quarter to one half of goo to PI with upgrades available through sovereignty.
Quarter of goo to exploration and other DED spaces with existing/revised upgrades available through sovereignty.
Quarter to one half of Goo remain on moons.

Conquering a system upgraded for one or the other has a high'ish chance of "leaving behind" some of the upgrade. Moons will still be the premiere ISK faucet due to the passive nature of it but with more of it around, made available by playing the game (emptying a hangar/silo once a week is not playing the game ), more entities get to set up replacement programs thus not only driving but creating conflict (weapons tend to be used when acquired in Eve).
Spread the goo around (PI+Moons) and fill gaps with whopping big mining/industrial potential and the drive is reinforced even further plus you open the door for hubs and manufacturing powerhouses to develop in null .. rather than most industry being in high-sec with crap ferried back and forth.

Filthy goon-sponsored propaganda.

the concept that 0.0 ratters will put up with risks far beyond those of wormholes for l4 mission +30% income is an idea dearly treasured by the naiive

Nonsense. Everyone knows that what needs to happen is that local needs to just disappear, JBs need to go away, and cynos/jumpdrives must go away as well. And suddenly, eve will become ~fun~ and ~awesome~ again.

Here's a good idea:

Make "military sov" buildup (required for most sov-based advantages) based on multiple factors instead of just million-hp structures and time. Howabout TCU + Occupancy of system (read: activity) + Length of time owning system + Planetary ownership + Nu-Faction Warfare-style "combat metric" (defaulting to sov holder) = Total level of sov. In return, the cost for owning a system decreases drastically as level of ownership increases. Perhaps the exact EHP of stations would be effected by the strength of the hold on the system.

Power projection of expansive alliances is curbed since much of their space isn't used enough to unlock jump bridges, and alliances would deliberately choose not to take needless systems in order to streamline costs. AFKing in station has a serious penalty to it as two out of five of the claims to the system are lowered by not defending it. The DUST integration serves as a tiebreaker and a way of fomenting conflict with otherwise heavily advantaged alliances.

They're called wormholes, maybe you have heard of them.

TBH even with the sarcasm your right. 0.0 should be hard lawless space, so you really shouldn't get advanced warning of incoming fleets from a cloaked alt in an adjoining system. Null should be more removed than a couple of jumps from jita in a JF. You should be more isolated out there. Local should die and jump drives more costly.

So in summary, as you null people always say. HTFU.

You live in Null space it should be lawless and hard.

if you think living in nullsec is at all "effortless" you probably shouldn't talk about nullsec
