We all know the incredible disaster the test server becomes when deadspace/faction/officer modules and supercarriers and titans are seeded. Perhaps it wouldnt be a bad idea to have 1 of each module in the redeem system and 1 supercarrier/titan in the redeem system for testing. That way it doesnt spiral into a supercap blob in all the combat areas.

What if upon proving you had access to a supercarrier or titan you could have access to deadspace modules for a short amount of time. enough to grab a few fits for the super and then it would lock down, requiring you to build another super/titan to have access to deadspace stuff again.

Humans must eventually break out from the limits of biology, its not radical to accept the inevitable.

Doesn't sound bad, but the only Faction/officer/dead modules that have changed at all are a few shield boosters and repairers. Oh and NOS's, medium rails, arty, and LAZORS.

I would like a Super or Two to orbit station in :D

This benefits me because I have many alts and would therefore get more items and supers than I could use

How about just increasing the drop rates by 1000 so that if you want nice shiney mods you actually gotta go out into deep -1.0 nullsec and rat for a few days to get some officer mods, which in turn would force you to test out different fits for ratting.ddd

As for supers, maybe a speed build or something like that being put back in place would be nice, or another alternative along those lines...

An option to limit purchases to buy 10 items or less at a time needs to be coded in. Its the depletion spam and the non normal results that takes up the devs time not the fact that they are on the server to begin with.

If i dont know something about EVE. I check https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/ISK_The_Guide

See you around the universe.

Yeah but you dont need to do all that if they just set up 1 of each in the redeem gift system. Easy as sunday morning.

That'd be too much work, it'd be easier to dedicate another system to cap/subcap warfare and have a system only accisible via moveme that has deadspace/officer seeded.

How about making the ability to acquire officer modules a reward for doing mass tests?
