A ship that eats other ships and looks like pac-man

Sounds like: "nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom" when eating

People: "You shouldn't burn bridges." Me: "I don't, I bomb them from orbit."

Concord becomes pay-per-use!

Replace all concord with GMs flying normal ships trying desperately to put out the fire.

Replace concord with a new bounty-hunter system. A white knight teleports in when you "summon" them when your ship is under attack... "Hello your ship is on fire, pay me 100 million isk and I will protect you from errant pirate."

Remember that whenever you have a bad day in EVE, the correct reponse is "Thank you CCP, may I please have another?"

Porting the client into OpenGL so that you could have native clients for both Windows and Mac with equal performance, rather than DX11. Rather a semi-functional cider wrapper that is stuck on DX9 and has no anti-aliasing or fixed window mode seems to be the way to go!

But also being able to fill your titan's highs with Doomsdays would be a good idea, you could introduce a Tech II or Upgraded Doomsday which gets rid of the 10 minute cooldown.

Minmatar ships randomly eject their owners into space. Faulty ejection wiring.

Module that lets you take other people's pods into your ship, where you can incarna fight them or hold them for ransom.

Introduce reverse concord in Pirate NPC 0.0 space. It works exactly like regular concord except people with positive sec status are free to kill and if you shoot people wiht -5 to -10 sec status these guys show up and blow you up.

Add a feature that will make you unrent the station office if the first thing you do after docking up is hitting enter. This works very well when combined with someone typing in chat when docking and the game changing from the chat window to the station panel as you dock up.

Someone should get on this... Oh wait it's already in-game....

Currently building carriers and rorquals. Contact me for a cheap capital ship.

Reverse incursions: Everywhere with Sansha Rats, including Stain, fleets of the great empires turn up to shoot everything.

All rats replaced by NPC-T3s and capitals. No bounties, but lots of expensive loot.

I'm not completely sure if this is good or bad, but... ability to give name to fedos. I'd name my fedo "Ra" (as in fedora).

Have "jump" and "bridge" alternate places every few seconds, so that you really, really have to stay sharp on which one you press.

A rig for drone damage. Just having a rig for sentry drones alone seems silly.

Why not give normal drone users a rig, too? More options are always good.

Add the capability to have more than one account authenticated at a time in the launcher. That way you can log in all your (many) accounts and switch among alts without typing in tons of passwords.

Or allow switching in the client without logging out... but maybe that's too much to ask.

See-through space ships. Twisted

Like Wonder Woman's airplane.

Maybe then we'd finally know why there's always fire coming out of the sides of the Hulk.

Allow us to "recycle" a skill once per year. It's like a remap, only you reclaim skillpoints from a skill you don't use any more.

Have the unified inventory tell you the volume remaining in a container (or cargo hold) as well as the volume occupied.

Create a mining frigate with a bigger ore hold than a mining barge.
