It's there for the game lore.

But don't worry, it's always hip in the industry to screw over established game lore for the sake for $$$ so expect CCP to do something silly with Jove space just to retain/attract more players (and then wonder why the numbers drop, silly execs).

I reckon CCP should HTFU and open it up. I'd love to see a Titan v Polaris. Twisted

That's a lot of systems for 600 480 people. They should open up half of them to us. Smile

Jove space is a local space, for local people, we'll have none of your sort there!

They're there a) for game lore, to give us a back story and b) as a mysterious region/race that can be called up and used when they get desperate for content, i'm pretty sure there would be a lot of players who would resub just to see it if they ever brought the jovians out of mothballs and that's what ccp count on, it's their last ditch card.

QFT. The jove's will be withheld for a long time, providing rich storyline speculation fluff, and serving to tease players till that moment of desperation when EvE is so stale that they can throw down the trump card, releasing Jovian ships, and Jovian avatars, along with Jovian technology. That move alone would suck a ton of people back in, so don't expect to see it anytime soon. Its their "break glass in case of emergency" content.

I wouldn't be suprised if they already have ships, missions, and avatars tested, modelled, updated, and in "the vault" Hilmar probably has a jump drive around his neck that he can drop into tranquility at any time should subscriber numbers fall below a certain critical level. Lol

He is jove.... ^^

So i'll esplain it to you:
CCP is building Jove titans with XXXL Lazors which have an insano tracking + 1 AU Targeting range + 1 AU Optimal.
as soon as all CCP devs have got one of those,
they're going to remove concord and BURN our arses just for fun.

You know, when all is said and done, CCP never really have to change game mechanics at all.

Just fleet up all the Polaris's and go pop every Goon asset, DRF asset and what the heck, NC. too.

No reset, no nerfs, no buffs, no whiners, nothin'.... Just get pissed one night and go absolutely feral. Woot, what a day that'd be!!
