Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Yeah BIG +++++

Thank you.
More support is needed.

My idea is not to base it on a mass , but on a subclass
1.Carrier fuel usage as base.
2.Dread burns a bit more
3.Mother ship far more than a carrier
4.Titans burning way more than a mothership.

Because right now titans - few dozen times bigger than a carrier use the same amount of fuel like a carrier for traveling 1 LY.

Fantastic idea. From what I recall,using jump bridges and jump portals requires fuel based on ship size (mass in this case), so why shouldn't the immense size of a super or Titan cost that much more to move than a carrier? I think it goes a long way to improving the power projection situation with supers and titans.

Personally, I don't like the idea of B-R situations. Hundreds of the largest ships in the universe being killed in the same place at the same time seems unrealistic and contrived. However, that is the subject of a different thread, I'm sure!

So for this idea, totally plus 1!!

Thank you for support.
Still we need more for dev to notice the topic, and way more for make this change happen.

Not exactly.
How often you move your titan on the other side of eve?
How often you drop it to shoot small tower?
How often you do this with 70 friends in titans and mother ships?

This will only impact, players that abusing limited CPU power of EVE nodes and make eve more REAL.
This will force 2 big bloobs to have their super capital fleet split in the whole area of their space.
This will promote subcapital battles.
This will also make those super capitals more vulnerable as they will be much more spread out.

Thats one of the main points.
Additionally you will not have 100 titans sitting in one system - they will have to be more spread around.
If they are more spread out - then there is a bigger possibility to catch on of them.
At the same time , it will take longer to get to this titan to save it - so more time for others to kill it or escalate it.

Now big powerblock abuse their supercapital power by dropping titans, motherships and few carriers to reinforce and kill some small tower.
They do this because they have near enough supercapital force to kill every possible threat before someone could escalate this.

They are not doing this because they "can" , but because it is safer.
You can easily kill a sieged dread or a triaged carrier - but you will not do this to a titan or mothership.

I like it. Makes sense. Why should only the JF need more fuel. Supers and titans are bigger then jf's.

But I don't see how this will change deployment. If a titan takes 6000 a ly it will need a bigger fuel bay. The argument they will be more spread out is..(insert fancy word here). They will likely concentrate around a supply station. And the big guys..can just get the extra fuel on hand at jump points. Either in a POS or in a station.

But I still like it as it makes sense..and the jf takes more so why not the others..okay repeated my self there.

I believe the Anthar thould have a lower jump requirement.
Thee what I did there?

No?


Anyway, I still support, even though you shot down my idea. I'm still hurt over that, but I guess you had your reasons.

Edit: Know what? It would be totally awesome if Jump freighters could jump a lot farther and would have a much cheaper per-lightyear cost to the jump when they were empty as opposed to when they were filled with massive cargo.

Definitely a step in the right direction.
