EVE General Discussion

what still amaze me is that many of the comments have no constructive pro or cons, they just try to riddicule the OP... When are you kids gonna grow up? Either give the OP an serious answer or just refrain from writing shite.


To OP, i agree that a different way to move betwene systems would be fun, but the point mentioned from a other poster, that jumpgates is what defines EVE... ect ect.... is a valid point that cant be denied.

Ideas and features is another forum, thanks for sharing :)

1) completely wrong part of the forums.

2) immediately dismissed criticism as trolling (which ironical paints a massive "troll me" sign on the op's face)

3) proposed idea is essentially "make it not eve "

The Great Karnak predicts that this thread won't go well.


BTW letting ships do interstellar travel on their own in any direction they like *would* mix things up a bit and if every system had variable security elements pertaining to "inner" and "outer" zones we would not be locked into these low/null/high sec areas.

Imagine if you will (another game perhaps) where if you are in the core of the solar system, say from the sun to "sustainable life distance" which would be from the star to 1 AU and maybe 5 AU you had space police or Concord, stations, and al that good stuff and there you get easy missions and cheap ore.
But beyond that you get out past the reaches and concern of space police and faction navies don't have much to worry about and are scarce. There you get more risk and ISK.
Then go out further and it's purely lawless. Cynos, bubbles, drops, drugs, walnuts... anything you want. Exploration in deep space, maybe even scores of AUs out and the D-scan becomes laughable.

All in one system.

Don't anybody try to tell me that would be a bad thing. Segregating regions by security status has not really turned out well. Forcing every ship through Fatal Funnels feels arbitrary (like SOV mechanics for example). Only those whose stats depend on the status quote are apt to defend it.

My 'stats' don't depend on it, gates don't help me kill npcs any faster. Gates ARE arbitrary, you need something to bring people into contact with one another other than just stations or npc complexes or asteroids. Did CCp years ago give us statistics (at a fanfest?) that showed the VAST majority of ship kills (you know, those explosive events that make the EVE economy a thing) happens within 100km of a gate.

Why anyone would want to do away with THE must successful killing fields in the entire game (a game that needs things to explode) is beyond me.

So...basically the OP wants CCP to re-write the entire game from scratch.

EDIT: When CCP introduced wormhole-space, I think that was their attempt to implement some of these ideas.

The forum would be grateful I you would not throw up in it.
And yes, 'done to death' is correct.

Thread locked.
