Player Features and Ideas Discussion

I am sure these have been said but here is a list, I'm also going to add on a small bit of my alliance management gripes cause I feel they are tied together:

In no real order:

The CEO should have the ability to kick anyone, at any time, for any reason. (yes I know the technical and gameplay limitations, this is why ceo only) Regaurdless of roles, amount of shares, or if you are docked.

The role system is complicated and doesn't give you enough information. For example, setting hanger access for 'other' makes no sense as to what exactly is other?

Hanger limited to 7 tabs is a huge pain for running a hanger array in a wh where you don't have station access, the personal hanger array kinda helped, but its still limiting. This also limits access in station hangers.

Not fully knowing what one title does vs another, it took me years to figure out that what each thing did. The title system should be scrapped for a more robust "access right: view, take, use" like: Corp wallet access: full, view Rent a lab: anywhere, specific spot, etc.

Shares are pointless, if the role system changes so locking down bp is easier, then shares either need to be killed or have a full overhaul.

On shares: The ability to split or have a share buy back would be awesome, this might actually help get a player run stock market that functions.

On shares: If a corp is closed that share should reflect the corp is closed or should be removed from all share holders share tabs. I have a few shares from dead corps that Ingore, would be nice to get a mail that a corp closed and the share went away.

The ability to set an auto kick would be nice, like "if corp mates are inactive for X time, kick" would be good.

Things besides mission rewards and bounties over 35K should be taxed (note this could be bounced to an alliance level where all transactions can be taxed) you should be able to set your tax based on activity. For example, I don't want people to trade all day in my corp so I set a 100% trading tax. Or I want to encourage missions runners to run missions so I drop my tax to 1% while still taxing miners, traders, etc. I firmly believe a corp should have the abilty to tax anything it wants. (this also goes for an alliance)

More tools for players to easily see what type of corp it is, like if taxes become more robust I can see a tax history so I know that they may dislike my play style.

A lot of my older gripes got fixed, so I'm good

To be updated

That's probably taking it a touch too far

Though being able to have groups within a corp, which include groups from other corporations isn't the world's worst plan

Corporation Standings

Kinda annoying for diplos when you change a standing (or add or remove) and then it has a good chance of just reverting that change a couple minutes later...

Roles.

It requires Director role to change the time at which an Infrastructure hub exits reinforced mode. This is inconsistent with stations, which can be retimed by Station Manager. More to the point, an Infrastructure Hub (and indeed a Territorial Claim Unit) can be offlined by a Station Manager.

This makes the added security from limiting the retiming further a massive headache, as sov-holding corps try to limit the number of directors they have, because directors can do fun things like drop the corporation out of the alliance.

To quote a certain short, ginger developer at Fanfest 2013, this is a "really dumb" game design decision. I'm willing to offer eternal gratitude and/or leftover duty free alcohol from the next time I visit Iceland if it's changed so that Station Manager can time the Ihub.

CCP Punkturis in the house!!

Corporate training certificates to skill into doctrine ships would be nice.

This is a neat idea.

Pretty much this...^^

and of course 149 pages of POSes: I am a small portion of the community

Some new assets to use with the Corp Logo builder.

Many elements are medieval themed, and I have no idea why they are included in a futuristic space game. Some new space-age shapes and forms would be welcome. A bit more Designers-Republic like. The logos that got added for the various NPC Dust514 corps are a nice step in that direction.

• User scalable/rotateable shapes and forms, possibly with more layer options*
• More dingbats, (✸, ✲, ❖ etc)
• More shapes options (rounded corners, bevel/chamfer corners, outlines)
• Add material qualities (amarrian gold / caldari titanium, minmatar rust / painted / brushed) along with
• more color options

* while being not that dynamic to draw a space johnson.
