+1 for also having the potential to resemble an 'Engineer'.
Now if there was also a 'dark' option to take on the traits of a certain Xenomorph… Twisted

It would be nice to have different Epic arcs, so you would have the last reward either a bit of Sleeper, Yan Jung, Talocan, Takmahl, or Jove DNA. Or they could have start as one Epic arc, but very early they could be split up into diferent stories and endings. Just some suggestions... P

No, if only because screw mission runners.

actually, make it only offered to pilots whoa re -10.0 standings, and havent been in highsec for a minimum of 6 months, you know, so the Jove know they arent still "working for the bad guys" (empires)

Well, half-Jove, but your point still stands P

And thank you! I hope CCP likes it as much as you and the others do Smile

As for me, the Jovians are what got me interested in playing EVE in the first place, so I really hope something good comes of this!

Not only does this violate lore, its ridiculously silly in so many ways
bulleted list of my opinion


  • No becoming half-jove or getting actual jove tech, unless you just REALLY want to **** on the lore

    • [1] Jove are enarly extinct, you dotn WANT to be like them, because their genes are literally killing them and turning them into vegetables
      [2] Jove tech is millenia ahead of ours, in lore their "frigates" were comprable to a faction battleship with officer fitting, as BASE stats
      [3] The Jove closed themselves off for a reason, they dont like people anymore, also, in lore no one has seen anything coming in or out of Jove space aside from sansha forces iirc

  • As a stand-in, i would not eb opposed to an expansion of the SOCT, and perhaps faction ships with non-defined tank/weapon systems blueprints in the LP store
  • and really? lore wise their is no way to really justify any of this besides "ermahgerd muh fanfics are so cool dont you guys think so they should be canon"

Yes please! The Jove really need some love, as well as the Rogue Drones and EoM; it's a great opportinity to give it to them, as well as expanding the Epic Arc system. Go ahead CCP!

I've always wanted to be a Jove, or at least have good traits with them... Their history, their tech... "Honorific Citizenship"? Hell yes!

Quoted directly from Part Three: Genolution ‘Galilean’ JD-67, (W.I.P.) Description, "Perfectly synthesizing Jovian and Human DNA, this ‘bridge’ brings the tenacity and resourcefulness of humans together with the advanced biology and mental superiority of the Jovians in a single body; in addition, the utter stability of this union provides a robust genetic base, unafflicted by virtually all defects associated with the human genome. This was the original aim of the project; and with its completion, the threat of the dreaded ‘Jovian Disease’, the fatal genetic plague that nearly brought about the end of a race, is over."


I didn't read the idea entirely because it is quite lengthy and I'm not really all that interested in PvE anyway, but I'm sure there are a couple of lore conflicts in here somewhere. At the same time, I'm sure that adjustments can be made to make it fit with the lore properly. Maybe CCP can even create some new lore specifically for this ark. Fresh lore is always welcome in my opinion. +1 To the idea for being organized and presented so beautifully, for being well thought out, and for being an idea that actually proposes the addition of NEW content rather than altering existing content.

If the Disease gets cured, doesn't that immediately shake up the rest of the universe, too? Sansha seems to have a presence in Jove space, the Angels live in the Second Empire's territory, and the SoCT seem to be doing pretty shady things already; if the Jovians aren't locked down by stagnation, Incursions would probably end or be interrupted, the Angels would definitely get kicked out of Curse, and the SoCT would get to do more than set Dagan loose every couple of days. That all sounds cool, but someone would have to implement events like these.

@Wolf:

Thanks for posting that! I wish everyone would read before they made judgments, but I can't force them to P

And as for the lore, I made sure, to the best of my ability, that it doesn't conflict with any existing lore on the Jovians- I did a substantial amount of research- and I've always been interested in them! But if it conflicts with some secret CCP narrative to EVE, I wouldn't know. However, I'm confident that this is in-line with the current story Smile

@Heresy:

While the end of the Jovian disease is a significant event, I don't think it would have quite the effect you imagine; first of all, that Sansha incursion into Jove space was repelled very quickly (it was said in EVE: Source- it's on my desk Smile). Also, the Jovians most certainly wouldn't be going back to 'reconquer' their old empire space- the Jovian regions are canonically the entrance to the rest of the galaxy beyond the New Eden cluster. If they wanted new space, they already have it (the systems we see on the map are only the ones CONCORD has had knowledge of- Jove space was connected at one point in time, but has since been cut off. Any newly colonized systems would not appear on CONCORD's map or database). And as for the SoCT, yes, it was founded by a Jovian, but the faction is mostly only Jovian in legacy; they are closer to being a faction of their own than an extension of the empire (though, with the curse of the disease lifted, they may begin more radical operations).

I'd like to make something clear, I HATE missions. despise them, the only time I'll do them is if I want more locator agents, I only have one 'set' of locators in the republic security as of right now, I need more locators to make my own style of play easier, but I push it off, for the fact I DO NOT WANT TO FUCKIN MISSION.

Srrsly **** missions.



After reading the set-up, the mission and rewards, I would totally go your epic arc and be happy to do so.

I support this as it would shake up things significantly and offer more points for content creation.
