Because I'm proposing an idea based on the film Purge. The concept be used here.

If you have a novel idea pls open a new thread.
Cool


alternatively if you have an idea that has already been discussed before, please make another redundant thread about it...

oh, wait...

Dunno if someone else suggest this idea. I'm asking CCP this,

So CCP can this be done?

CCP will you consider todo this in the future?

I think it would be cool to make hisec CONCORD-free for a day, if CONCORD moves to lowsec and null that same day.

Share the "love."

It is a fair idea to share the love.

But Purge concept is that the entire system shuts down for DT to DT. All Capsuleers are free to do what they please to each other.. Lol

Right so what's fair for hisec is fair for losec: hisec - - no CONCORD intervention; lowsec - - CONCORD intervention.

Why should we discriminate against lowsec?

I'm not opposed to the idea. Seems like it could be fun. Might provide an interesting difference of PvP for the day without cap drops. Expensive ships and kitchen sink fleets fighting it out randomly on every gate.

That said, I don't see the benefit to CCP for doing this though. No matter how much CCP warns carebears beforehand, there will be vast legions of paying customers who don't see the warnings and file a petition (or simply leave the game), which is bad for business.

What is the purpose of targeting highsec? Is it because of the unique capital restrictions and the heavily seeded markets? Would it accomplish the same thing to set up a single region with no capitals and seeded markets where this free-for-all can happen without risking large revenue losses?

I think what needs to be understood is that removing CONCORD from highsec is like removing sov from nullsec. It's the whole reason people are there. Removing it will cause people to leave the game, not 'go somewhere else'. Of course, since it's only for a day, the effect will be far less serious, though still very disruptive.

Because the police need vacation... I'm suggesting no Concord or military intervention from DT to DT. That universe is free to allow capsuleers to do what they please to each other without consequences. all over... A one day event. Even just to say we tried it and yes A) it was great or B) it sucked never do it again.

I doubt people will leave for a one day event even if they didn't get the memo... CCP has already pushed stuff on players that pissed us off already. We still have players playing a new ones coming..

Purge concept will not damage Eve. if anything it will cause a stur... that some will hate.. and others will like.. Only having it happen will we know for sure the results of this event. It gives everyone a chance to go out and do something crazy... Fun... exciting... yes for some it will be scary.... a new experience... or others it will be a thrill and others will hate or the sake of hating...


But at least we can say.. I was there!

I'm not being argumentative, honest. The only way to make the concept work would be to remove CONCORD intervention and remove the penalty for losses.

Which would lead to all sorts of unintended consequences, that I don't care to consider.

Yes I'm waiting for ccp's answer if its possible. Crossing my toes and fingers. Big smile

Would you support removing the consequence of all PvP in highsec for that day? If you lose your ship, it appears back in your hangar when the day is over?

No reinburstments. When you undock your responsible for you own ships and gear. No Concord or standing hits in low or highsec.

Why not? It would encourage the carebears to learn how fun PvP can be, and you'll probably get a lot better showing from them for the day! Otherwise, like you said... most of them will just stay docked or not fight back.

Unless, that's what you want.

Because system is in place they can get free rookie ships. They can have numbers... They can join a corp.. they can watch and learn... they can yes stay docked up...

Some will be scared.. others will face they're fears. Most? dunno we haven't tried it yet.. can't be sure.. we're only assuming what may or may not happen..

No offense, but it's starting to seem like you don't actually want to throw a fun event where everybody is involved in something new and different. It sounds like you want to shoot people in highsec (presumably carebears) without consequence.

I've yet to see something in your suggestion that cannot already be done elsewhere.

Alot of the people i've talked to dont' bother with forums... They liked it.. This is something that I've wondered for some time.. But only recently decided to ask ccp.

ATM Some like it.. and some hate it.. but not most.. Most don't read this.. Your assumption to what most think is wrong. The only way to know for sure is have it happen.. Then we can really see if most hate or like or simply don't care.

until then you assume too much.

Nor has CCP created an "iron man" mode of play either.

But let's just say CCP allowed this suggestion of having a free-for-all with an iron mode edge (once podded then you are permanently dead). And add a bit of flavor by having every station have a limited amount of hit points so people can not hide in stations and wait it out. Any assets in an exploding station are lost in the destruction. And for kicks, if you logged out from a station that was destroyed while you were offline, upon logging back into the game has you in whatever ship you docked with floating among the rubble.

Might be quite interesting for the numbers...

Its an oppertunity for all to do what they want. some will like it others won't. I will shoot reguardless of concord or not... or standngs or not. I'm offering the idea a purge day where anyone can shoot anyone without police causing you issues. The entire universe is free for one day todo what they want to each other. Carebear or not. Noob or vet.. old or young... No holds bar.. Blink
