Haven't yet finished reading ALL but so far it's amazing! I LOVE EVE and I LOVE SimCity style of games (Caesar, Anno, SimCity, CitiesXL,etc.).

If EVE would contain this additional layer of city building and management I would pay for a lifetime subscription in a heartbeat!!

The way this idea could tie in with DUST and with things already in EVE that so badly need a look at: industry, moon mining and moons role in general, stars (only decoration atm), capital ships usage, etc. It would be really really sad if CCP wouldn't take a hard long look at this idea and wouldn't start drafting its implementation. Think only at the amount of new people that would flock to the game.

The city-building genre is very poorly represented lately and building one on such a solid platform that EVE is would be a-mazing!

I'll get back to reading :D

The more that is left to automation,
and, thus,
out of the players hands,
reguarding Planetary interaction,
the sooner you could form a doable model.

By keeping it shallow, the model can be built sooner.

Own the pre existing town : don't build it.
-> The lack of " building " gnaws the development weight EXTREEMly much down, for the city would be just a bunch of math equations.
Fly over the surface : don't walk on it.
-> terrain already exists in DUST, WOD, EVE.
. . .
Depth would come later; or more imporatlly, via your imagination.

I am so very behind the Simcity-on-dust planets idea, you build it up like the traditional game, supplemented with mineral and ISK drops from orbit. Once the city is built, it can be attacked by opposing corps, with the dust battles taking place inside the player designed cities. You could even have the sim population represented as innocent bystanders/refugees/partisans during the battles, affecting the field. On top of that, each building could be individually destructible. An array of defensive structures for custom strongholds would round out the gameplay nicely.

That would allow the dust mercs to interact with the eve players in a meaningful way, because the defending player would require "limited property damage", giving a new dimension to friendly fire. Do you want to order an orbital strike on your own colonies? How will it affect happiness? Which of your own structures are you willing to destroy in your cities defense? Are you willing to let an enemy capture a colony intact so you can take it back later? Or do you scorch the earth behind you?

The very idea is compelling.

Post your advanced battleship ideas here!

It is overcomplicated, doesn't integrate well with Dust 514's district system, and frankly doesn't answer many of the possible issues that such an idea might have. The Caldari put business before pleasure. The Gallente put business in pleasure.


Van Mathias Dead Space Continuum Likes received: 42	#395 - 2013-04-06 08:14:05 UTC If you are worried about overcomplicated, you are playing the wrong MMO. It would integrate very well with the district system, each district would have a set number of colony slots. Once the slots are occupied, you will have to take it if you want to have a colony there.

Just FYI, the revised 3.0 version of this idea will actually tie into the District system we have now.

This idea and its 2.1 Assembly Hall variant was posted long before the Dust Beta took flight and well before we even knew about a district.

Eve is about Capital ships, WiS, Boobs, PI and Isk!

EVE is not overcomplicated. There is a difference between just complicated enough and overcomplicated.

Nowhere in the original post(s) do I see anything about your proposed system.
