No raging here, but adding my non-rage post to the constructive nature of this thread. Please fix and/or sort out POS problems!

TIA

I approve this tread and would love to see a POS fix, as a POS owner.

I too live out of a POS and have to deal with its limitations daily.

The security is terrible. A ship maintenance array with divisions would help greatly. We really do need to be able to set access and permissions on a tower by tower basis instead of corp wide. Corp members are unable to set up their own links for reactions which becomes a draw on the leaderships time. Instead of getting activities going we are distracted with lots of little tasks such as setting up links and fishing stuff out of divisions which members do not have access to but mistakingly dropped goods into.

There are dozens of little nuscance conditions, it is silly that we can not dig things out of containers without playing the cargo hold game and we can not rename the containers without jeting them into space. It is silly that we can not repackage modules, as a result we have to look at rows upon rows of modules layed out one by one. Unlike everyone else we can not change T3 subsystems. The list goes on and on, the POS code is by far the most annoying part of Eve. Please improve it.


Excellent.
Any number of things in the quoted post that could be done one a one-by-one basis, any of which would constitute a material improvement.

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

Do you know what's the elephant in the room (for modular POSes)?

Modular POSes were conceived when CCP figured that they could be filled up with CQs and other avatar content that improved the player experience of owing a POS over owing a pile of junk inside a bubble.

So no avatars = no modular POSes.

Pray so you get the functional overhaul now...

You know what POSs do and what are they for? Not for a bunch of dudes to dress up and emote each other.

I beg your pardon - I badly know English so I use a translator.
For me was a big disappointment news that the adaptations of the POS will not in the near future. Many will agree with me that this is perhaps the most anticipated and the most important apology from those mentioned above. But if for CCP is engaged in POS in the near future will be not possible - the path of least give the opportunity to repack items and change subsystems for settlements.

I haven't fully read the CSM minutes yet so I can't truly comment but it does sound like there are some appalling ideas being raised that will potentially wreck both the economy of New Eden & the game itself.

Back to the OP. I don't think POSes & Outposts can be considered a minor part of EVE Online. Well that is unless a certain person gets his way and Invention is removed from high sec. Sad CCP shouldn't have made such as big deal out of promoting modular POSes at Fanfest in 2012 if they didn't want to bring them to the game.

I won't be too upset if modular POSes are not implemented and I'm not personally in favour of 'dumbing down' the work entailed to build & get a POS/Outpost set up. I also don't think the idea of POS for individuals is such a good idea either given the limited places available to set one up.

BUT what does need to happen is a complete overhaul of the Corp/Alliance Roles & Permissions to make them user friendly & fit for purpose. Which they aren't atm. Also the interaction of the Corp/Alliance Roles & Permissions with the running of POSes to enable security and use by maybe a limited number of corp members should be made possible. No one can say the Corp/Alliance Roles & Permissions interface is of limited use or interest to the EVE playerbase as the majority of pilots are in player run corps & alliances.

Over 2000 posts in somewhat over a day? This cant be ignored! (and have yet to find a nay-sayer indeed)

+1 for POS revamp!
Modular pos' with mooring/docking instead of the bubble would be amazing.
The endless possibilities, a true feature for a sandbox MMO.

Cant wait to set up our POS 'village' in null with my space-buddies. (If its going to be modular etc.. that is)

Fixing POS is not a marginal issue... make them user friendly and aesthetically pleasing and many more players will use them. Eve also lacks interesting scenery in general... the new planets and nebula added so much to the feel of the game, modular POS would have a similar effect.

As someone who lived in wormholes and ran low sec POS's I would like to say that POS's need to be worked on and greatly improved. It is a daily life problem in EVE.

im a fairly new player but i can tell you that from word of mouth alone i will not be attempting to learn how the pos work in their present state. CCP has made a fantastic game but they have to understand that if you have substandard parts in your game it brings down the overall enjoyment, and polish of an otherwise great game. CCP, it should be a priority to bring substandard areas of EVE up to par with its best parts and poses would be a great place to start considering what an important role they could play in any pilots career. I know CCP is excited about the future of EVE as am I. I hope you will heed the call of your fanbase to fix poses.
