What do you think about a planetary structure attached to the command center (temperate and barren only) for Dust 514 mercenaries to sabotage or destroy other players facilities and defend own?

Of course, a sabotage or defense mission would complete in no less than a day of battles.

Through Customs Offices, Capsuleers would supply weapons and ground vehicles for use by their hired mercs in their Mercenary Quarters. They can also help their mercs by orbital bombardment.

Dust 514 Mercenaries could move freely between planets where they are hired using their own way.

I would like for them to buff planetary interaction and include dust in it. I'm a sims kinda guy, so the resource harvesting should only be one section of colony management. Defense the other.

That said, I think these things are on a hold at the moment, because it seems there's a want to move PI to a mobile platform, maybe by devs or maybe by playerbase, whatever. Mostly rumors.

If PI stays, yeah, give it a massive overhaul and let us get bunnies on the ground and ships in space.

If you're driven to threaten others with harm or violence because of what they do in game, you can't separate fantasy from reality. That "griefer/thief" is probably more sane than you are. How screwed up is that?

Educate yourself on Dust 514's vision before making suggestions.

Districts, not colonies, are what mercs will fight over. CCP has mostly abandoned the idea that mercs would fight over colonies themselves, and instead created a new system that works quite differently.
