Dear CCP.

We need a strong in game incentive for players to do gate to gate player convoys, near 0.0 hotspots.
I't will give the game a new dimension.

Ideas anyone?

There is nothing ingame stopping you from buying a freighter and attempting to fly it through catch.

An incentive other than possibly surviving? (Note: Im assuming you will have security in this "convoy")

Yeah I totally see how CCP should have to control the minds of the players and make them do things.

If CCP promises to provide me with a little pre-patch insider info,
so i can sell off mine before the market crashes, then im all for it :)

Its not an exploit, if the game lets you do it...

Yes, I'm sure this intel is necessary for Caldari Provisions to prosper. NPC corpmembers doing well is definitely at the top of CCP's priority list.

Infrastructure upgrades which are too big to fit in jump freighters.

Oh wait...


Okay, more infrastructure upgrades that are too big to fit in jump freighters.

I know. Make an item so large that it requires 2 freighters to haul. You tie them tobether and sandwich the item in between.

This is as nice as I get. Best quote ever https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4137165#post4137165
