CCP, please create an option where players can give up their capsules and when their ship is destroyed their char dies permanently. The flip side of giving up capsuler status would be that Concord would no longer attack you for agressing in high sec much like NPC pirate rats.

The ability to lose a char permanently on ship destruction would offset the abillity to attack capsulers at will without Concord intervention.

No, it really wouldn't.


I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

Only if you're about as effective as rats too, because that's what its like without the pod


And no, I haven't read the lore so I could be wrong.

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.

That means it can be turned on/off by desire of the player, right?

Not if it is optional! What you really meant to say is "make death permanent so I do not get ganked! <3"

Surely that means that we wouldn't be demi-gods... and I so like being immortal, so no

I am aware of my own ignorance and have checked my emotional quotient - thanks for asking

For once not being sarcastic: please biomass.

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

so...

Goons create 4000 new chars
all in noobships they warp to a freighter
all open fire
freighter goes down and they run off with the lewts
repeat

I see no problem with your idea

well done

This is why op doesn't make computer games people want to play

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships

I was thinking to myself, how can we create a system that would encourage more station games? I couldn't, but you did, bravo OP!

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

With how long it takes to build up skills in this game... You really want perma-death? You'll have to start over, every time you get killed. No one will fly anymore. They'll be station bound for fear of getting killed. Just like in real life. People stay indoors, cause it's safe....

Watch this space.  New exciting signature in development.

oh hey it's like D3 hardcore mode, i would like make so many of these alts.

TA on wis: "when we have a feature that is its own functional ecosystem of gameplay then hooks into the greater ecosystem of EVE as a whole, and it provides good replayability."

I always hoped for a "live fast die young" option where you get an accelerated SP gain rate, but there's a cap to how many SP you can have (Lest everybody have a 100M SP industrialist who never undocks in 2 years) AND such a big fat nano-infused speedy brain is un-clonable so that when you do get popped, stick a fork in it, it's done.

The OP's idea seems untenable.

Bring back DEEEEP Space!

I completely support this.


I will then roll ten accounts that I'll train into Catalysts to gank with in highsec and well every once in awhile someone will kill me and so what? They take less than a month to train!

What you're asking for is essentially an automation of the process of ganking people until you're -10 and then recycling that character, except that all the added penalties that come with -10 status do not apply. As you may know, recycling your -10 character is not allowed because of how easily it is abused; you're asking it to be allowed and improved.

How about no? Does no work for you?

You know a suggestion is broken when people tell you it is and a goon take the time to approve it.
