Player Features and Ideas Discussion

I believe that this has been brought up many times already.

So what you are saying, is that if you own a super, you always need to login at least once a day, even if you are on an exotic vacation with your significant other. Sorry, but even super pilots have lives.

No, super pilots need to have a social setup to cover them. Their alliance mates should have their cell phone numbers and they need to take their laptops on vacation. In the event the vacation is in outer Mongolia, an arrangement needs to be made with another super pilot to handle emergencies.

Supers are alliance and coalition assets. They are not meant for solo ratting or solo hot dropping. This garbage about "every pilot in NC. needs to have a super" is total puke and definitely not working as intended. Again, please fix.

I thought supers were already nerfed into oblivion - why would anyone fly them after this? :)

The answer is, a lot fewer people would fly them. As intended.

Seriously. We are in the age of "every pilot in NC. needs a super."

Eve has officially gone down the tubes. Please fix.

I'm not in NC. I'm not fighting against NC. either. It's just that Eve in the form of "everybody is in a super" is about as logical as "everybody in America gets to be the President."

The years of training is no longer a barrier. The high ISK cost is not a barrier. There needs to be a barrier to prevent any group from having every single one of their pilots in a super. So, the barrier needs to be, you can have as many supers as you can protect and coordinate.

Anyone can go run incursions for a couple months and get a super. Most of the Eve player base has been around for years and doesn't flinch at a few 45-day skill trains. The fact that supers can only be built in sov null means that some groups can get them and others can't, but these days, if you're in one of the groups that can build them, everybody in the freaking group can get into a super without terribly much effort.

The current barriers are inadequate. There needs to be a barrier. So the logical conclusion is to derive a new barrier. Well, needing to have a group that can coordinate the storage and positioning of the supers is a good barrier.

Yeah the idea has been brought up. And it has been shot down by groups that have trillions of ISK and access to supercapital construction arrays and have convinced themselves that every single member of the group should fly a super.

Totally and absolutely not working as intended. Fix the problem by removing the holder alt logoffski. All the objections to the removal are mounted by people who think that supers are for tooling around by yourself with your new toy. Return the supercapital to the status of a rare alliance asset. Not with an expectation that 'they're so expensive nobody will have one.' Just get rid of the holder alt logoffski.

Yeah the idea has come up and been shot down. But CCP is actually being bold these days. They're taking actions they wouldn't have taken a while back. There's an AFK cloaking thread now. Recons are d-scan immune. You can even post about WiS without getting locked. Capitals can't teleport across the map. We're on a 6-week release cycle and the game is actually moving forward and changing by leaps and bounds. A lot of these old ideas that were discussed and decided upon way back when the game was different need to be brought up again.

So I'm bringing it up. Just do it.
