I'd be ok with being adopted by angelina jolie if it meant syndicate got a fixed LP store.

Every AT win by a Syndicate team should result in the rebalance of Syndicate LP store item.

That probably would have worked better before rote went to provi. Now its Clockwork, agony and Castabouts against the rest of EVE and either castabouts or us are going home next weekend.

I wonder how long we have to keep this on the front page before CCP tells us to stop annoying them.

As long as we stay focussed and civil we should be good for the time being.

I thought the same Big smile

For short terms, i'm still hoping for a simple "we are aware of the problem and will look at it in the near future" from someone in CCP.

Until then: keep bumping. Syndicate and it's lovely residents deserve and need it.

And back to the frontpage with you.

Denied the right to colonize planets in the region, the Syndicate instead operates exclusively from its network of autonomous stations, each of which is run by a station manager who is undisputed master of his own fief.

Intaki Pos'es?
Intaki Pos-modules?
Intaki Capital sized Pos-guns?
Syndicate Syphons?
Syndicate deployables?

Not my favorite choices, there are better suggestions in this thread. I also don't know if there is really a nice in the market for it. But at least it fits with the lore and somebody here can construct something useful / desirable out of it.


But we desperately need something special where the market is interrested in . Ship lines work best for that, no wonder, it's a game about space ships.

Why not Intaki Logistic ships or Recons? Pirate factions ships dont mandatory need to be damage dealers, you know?

Or a line of "Intaki combined-modules" (ECCM and Sensor booster in one module, etc.)?

Come on CCP, throw us a bone. The stepchild of regions in eve deserves a bit of attention. And no, i don't think a second named system will do it.

Poitot would still be the only named system in syndicate. Also, I'm hoping CCP at least takes a passing look at this and it triggers someone to work on player level NPC Nullsec income!

It's clear that the new player experience is being given lots of design priority these days, so why not buff places like Syndicate?

If there was an actual way to make money in Syndicate, or at least sustain losses, it would be a perfect region for new people to head to until they find a niche that actually makes them stick to the game. As it is, they are much better off ISK wise just doing HS L4s and boring themselves to death, and if they are not having actual interaction, they probably are not going to keep with it. It would be good if they could secure income and easy access to fights in a single region, eliminating some of the logistical drudgery. Give them regions that let them do multiple things without hassle or lots of moving around; a region which is a reason to stay is possibly more effective than just trying to address each reason why they leave.

OMG!!!

CCP / CSM Look what you hath done!

You made me agree with a goon!!

And he is right on all points! Anything that would give us a way to make isk to cover losses and get new stuff quickly is well appreciated and I like the idea of a drug mobile/hauler, why not?

It is nullsec for crying out loud. Isk should run out of fountains into our wallets. The infrastructure is unique and perfect with tons of stations to dock, no hassle like the stuff that sov folks like or don't like to do.

Heck, even give the Intaki drone damage amplifiers, omnidirectional trackinglinks/enhancers, drone range thingies that cost less cpu and drone navigation computers for less LP than in highsec.

Oh and make Syndicate and ORE have better truesec, so that the systems are full of sites that shower you in isk.

And that just hit me, give ORE an ORE faction barge with an enhanced combat dronebay or something.

Someone get someone from the CSM in here that cares about NPC null.

There are several CSM members (and devs) who do care about NPC Nullsec, but NPC Null doesn't attract attention like sov null due to the numbers living there.

Which is sad!

There are other NPC regions in null but compared to Syndicate they are smaller and not as 'famous'. Maybe they could get some love too.

Anyhow I hear you and you have my support and the support of many other from all over the place. We just have to stick to it and at some point we will be heard.

Whenever i talk to possible new recruits about EVE, I try to tell them not to get scared away by the huge amount of skills and knowledge needed for this game. I tell them that all you really need to be a useful and welcome member of our fleets is a cheap T1 frig, a point, and a mwd. that's a couple of days worth of SP's and a few 100k iskies.

If they really are interested and we start talking about details and trial-accs and so on, i always have to tell them that, well, we life in Syndicate. So you'll also need a JC and a highSec mission-agend, at least lvl3... otherwise every frig or cruiser-loss will bring tears to your eyes.

So then comes the "but if what you told us is true and you live in null sec... you talked about risk vs. reward and so on... shouldn't you be easily able to afford your PVP when you live there?"

...that's when i slouch my shoulders and take a deep pull on the bottle Cry

Which would that be?
Stain? Which currently can't keep up with the Nightmare, Phantasm and Succubus BPC production, let alone the Slave-Set production?
Venal? Are you kidding me?
Curse? Are you slightly kidding me? Although I don't know what to do with my Angel LP now that the ships are worth crap.
Delve? Kidding, right?
Fountain Core? Kidding, right?
Outer Ring? This one is special and thanks to the ORE ships already in a good position.
Great Wildlands? This one is special and attracts a special kind of people. Giving it more stations, for instance, would just go starkly against the nature of the sov owners there; henceforth it's not good to change anything.
Only Syndicate, especially their LP store, could need a special something that is actually useful.

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

Dear Rivr, please don't get mad!

let's agree to disagree for the other npcs regions and re-focus on Syndicate, yes? I'll leave other regions out of the discussion if you don't strangle me in return Big smile

Having this out of the way, maybe we should politly ask for a 'blue' response?

Nothing major, just a tiny response with an 'Aye' or 'Acknowledged'.

They don't need to commit right away, but a blue response would go a long way in assuring us that we don't demand unreasonable things here.
