Player Features and Ideas Discussion

This is The best i have read so far : )

You take and finish The mission Remotley.

You warp to the mission and Beacon appears in space (overwiew/system scanner etc.)



It would be much better than current system, and let much more people into one system.

Simply Remap current anomalies, add 30%+ to the NPC Bounty

and every one will be happy \o/ Boom.

so what about ore anoms? you want those gone too? either way -1, you're cutting content.

^This

+1 for adding missions.
-1 for removing anoms.

Any proposal should add missions without removing anoms. No to cutting content.

+1

Null use to be "ok" but with new sov, it's very appealing.


A lot of stuff was not updated for many many years (only the drop rates)

Just the damn numbers, come on CCP, Chnge the way escalations work like Fleet staging point (no one does it any more)


Give us better reward for siting in this dead end of space.




Change Anoms into fast and easy to use concord mission system, that will reward more isk, and support more players.

Give us Very hard caps/super caps escalations with officer spawn at the end or some thin. .. Show Null some low it needs.


It's just crazy you make more isk/hour doing incursions in hi sec with no risk, than beein in dead end of space -_-''

Some sort of pseudo-agent solution maybe? Outposts could be able to hire NPCs who will reward clearing anoms/mining rocks with the location of new hidden anoms/ore sites.

Run anom, tell npc you've just run anom, he points out (spawns) hidden anom. Double anoms! Half of them you could run even with a cloaky in system as he'd have to scan you out first.


Edit: Oh, and nerf missions and high-sec incursions.

How about high bounties on drifter caps that will appear at random around your sov. Killing one could provide a massive boost to your occupancy and require commiting significant forces to take it down. Or someone else could come in and kill it in your system, dropping your occupancy rating downward and then proceeding to attack your now weakened structures.

Edit: All of the sudden ratting in supers doesn't sound so crazy

yeah no, even if the need to hold lots of space were implemented. people would still hold as much space as possible, look at how much of null is empty.
Im not there because I hate the politics, running 25 jumps to guard someone elses space, GS opening fire on FA to put in a puppet etc.
Not my kind of politics thanks

EDIT: there lots of risk in incursions if you mess up. I watch people not turn on tanks, shoot a logi or cap buddy with safety red, not broadcast on time, or sansha just hates the fleet and blam. its just the communities have nullified the player losses like null sec (insurance, unless you do something stupid and the still may give payout). Just high sec have allowed fleets to optimize ship builds for the 1 purpose. You all want to do something to incursions than theres 2 options you can take.

I feel the fact that null systems can only support limited numbers is intentional in order to create scarcity and conflict. Agents and missions copy/pasted over from HS & NPC null would ruin that.

Anoms don't create scarcity or much conflict. In fact, what you just posted was the thinking behind the move by CCP that created the current situation:



That was 4 years ago. Suffice it to say, that not onlt didn't work, it backfired completely.

The problem as I see it is that with Dominon, CCP took an existing thing ("cosmic anomalies") that were random, secondary sites (secondary to sing nature sites that require probes to find that is) and made them the CORE of the sov null sec income system. Anomalies were never designed for that, they were basically quick 'bite sized' content that players could find easily all across New Eden.

The results of using anomalies in this way have been mostly bad. Lots of raw isk stuffed into the economy, lots of imbalances (back before ccp nerfed it, tracking titans with scimitar remote link support could blap the then frig-less forsaken hubs so fast it as crazy, 500 million isk per hour) and as baltec mentions, the way anoms pay means that their relative value (and with them, the value of sov null) has declined over time.

While i've been skeptical of using missions as the core of the system upgrade scheme, Baltec is right, anomalies are horrible for the purpose. And I say this as someone who likes anomalies and runs them with Rattlesnakes to relax (well, relax as much as you can while watching local).
