Wormholes

Some simple idea's to increase the reward in the "unknown" after hyperions risk increase.

1. Bring ice belts to wh-space (lore wise might not work)

2. MOON-GOO (Gives a new material to make T-3's) #ContentDriver

3. New Types of Sleeper escalations (spawned from Marauders?)

YA or nay?

The MOON-GOO would not be the same in every system. Like how PI is good in some and terrible in others. It would create a situation in which ppl would find to take wh's for the isk in it. And the residents would fight back to keep it.

STOP trying to homogenize space

wh != null

I'm ok with this.

Couldn't possibly make w-space any worse than it is now.

Moon mining also takes place in lowsec...

Whose to say that ccp couldn't write that in, what were once considered barren moons with no valuable resources have been discovered to contain numerous minerals valuable to making t3's? As is, you occupy a wh for its.....what? static? effect? The amount of isk you can make sitting on your ass doing nothing? And people run eviction ops when they get bored and feel like picking on the little guy, or hold a grudge/one of the bigger groups gets bored, as that's the only way they can generate content due to their size. Wh groups already roam out to nullsec quite often, so why not introduce another content/conflict driver into wspace with moon goo? That way, individuals and groups would have a reason to hold down specific systems, and other groups would have reasons to try and evict them.

Apart from the marauder escalations, I'd be okay with these additions. Cap escalations are one of the few things that make it worthwhile living in c5 & c6 space.

Hey space friends, it’s been awhile. So, I logged in this morning, and my old buddy Billy convo’d me up. Asked me what I thought about his ideas and if I’d provide some feedback, and honestly I was very grateful for his request. I have been rather quiet of late, but I’ve followed the Hyperion expansion and the feedback closely, however leaving wormhole space left me with a rather bland sense toward staying involved with the forums/community.

That said I will say that, overall, my impression about Hyperion has been that CCP seemed determined to provide “content” and “change” to the gameplay, however disregarding the community’s feelings on the mass/distance deal was a poor decision. Two things:

1. I think that the mass/distance arrangement should be removed or reversed. I’d be fine either way.
2. Frigate wormholes are unappealing. Keep them, but make them closable, or remove them. I’d be fine with either decision.

When I started in wormholes in 2009, and I always loved the idea of being able to frontier and “live off the land” so to say, so I’d be interested in having roving ice belts in and throughout wormholes. With the current changes, I’d suggest that both ore belts and ice belts be signatures, and requiring scanning.


My thoughts on moon-goo are simple. Moon-goo should deplete, and respawn in a different moon. I know that setting up POS’s is a PITA, but that would lead into my discontent with POS mechanics, that I’m sure all can relate. CCP should fix the POS design, and also allow moon-goo to deplete in ALL moons.

Moon-goo outside wormholes for T2 production, PI for various production, and Wormhole moons for something new or augment for T3 production. I don’t care, but with moon materials depleting and respawning all over, this idea would be fine.


This was a discussion point at some point when I was running for CSM. Not sure when, but I thought it was an interesting concept to help with C1-C4 wormhole residents. Allow them with a sleeper escalation based on Marauders landing on grid. With proper attention to the design, CCP could really go places with having PVE content that responded and evolved with the decisions of the players, whether with escalations of Caps, Marauders, Logi, or whatever. Lots of interesting PVE potential can be expanded from this idea.

Overall, wormholers will want more incentive for the increased risk added, not to mention the added risk to smaller organizations and solo players that participate in wormholes. Anyhow, that’s my two cents. Cheers~

I would vote yes to a few of these ideas, but moon goo im not sure, it feels like it goes agaisnt the ideas of wh space where you go out there in space and do things and put your stuff on the line.
If they would add moon goo imo they should do it differently from harvesting to what you produce with it.
You could harvest the moon goo with ships instead of pos module and moo go could be used to produce something new like t3 mods instead of old t2 mods.
But since CCP hasnt finnished ship and module rebalance its just a dream.
Im still wondering where the recon ship pass is?

carebears wanna moreeeeeee

not liek its empty cose of carebear`s whined so hard that ccp smthfour decided to make it easier for ya.
and srsly maradeurs escalations??
