Player Features and Ideas Discussion

You mean these things?

Yeah, the EVE variant is simplistic.

This is not to say that it sucks or that it requires a dead serious and realistic one. There a thought of seeing some expansion of it projected onto the current version of EVE at the beginning, but that was when I also assumed a seperate game would be better, because pretty much almost every suggestion or concept posted is usally brick-walled by CCP not having the resources; the game's code; ponies; etc.

A change of the damage modelling system would somewhere also ask for an expansion, a revamp or a simply different version of the current weapons of EVE - but that be for another thread and topic. Since I mentioned weapons, I've always been wondering why Amarr lasers deal EM and not Therm dmg as prime - same for KIN not being Minmatar (as EXPL dmg is, usually). But again, different subject.

I must say though, for the simplistic EVE one, I was wondering if a damage model from the UFO:After- series could work. It follows the same (huge) HP bar system, but there are two addition ones that chew on it's green self: Temporary damage (gray), [/i]a red one that I forgot[/i], and black which is permanent damage that can't be healed (Soldier must recover at base for a few days).
I doubt many had played the game, but it might fit to this current version of EVE rather than a seperate game.

The aforementioned system is actually not that complicatedbut aside to explaining it a bit more, but the game would need a bit more complexity and introductions of new and special types of weapons. All could actually be done in a balanced sense.

Unfortunately, I doubt I can find a decent youtube gameplay vid about the example I mentioned.
