So I was reading a post in GD. . . https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=52479&find=unread

The OP stirred something in me just like every zillionth time I see that post. So I said

Then my brain started working and I want feedback from all the other FW pilots out there so I posted here. What if FW actually had consequences? You can't dock up in a hostile system because there would be no place for you to do so. I think it would breath new life into FW because, I'm sure this has been beaten to death already, there is no NPC stations in lowsec.

I think the week of controlling time is perfect to set up a front line that actually means something and we can kiss the pirates goodbye unless they are coming in enmass from other regions of space. Don't make all of lowsec like this, but the battlegrounds from one faction to another I feel would greatly benefit from this system. No gate guns, no stations, and only the controlling faction has a place to go to for safety.

Also, remove the restriction of galactic alliances. Instead of a 2 way war we now have a 4 way war. Why should we buddy up with the Caldari, Gallente, Minmatar or Amaar just because of some ancient code? I feel that Frogs should be able to shoot slaves and zealots should be able to shoot squids. Make it a universal struggle for power. I mean that is the reason we have 5 races isn't it?

It's time for the truce to be broken and FW fixed for the end of days.

Happy New year everyone. I hope I have the opportunity to write my drunken rants in 2013. What the **** do the Mayans know anyway?

Oh..... my other thread got me blocked by a big bad "PIE Inc." member.... Whatever, that *** doesn't even know what he want's anyway.

The simple fact is CCP loves to create half finished "shiny new things" but they don't like to follow through and fine tune them or adjust them later on. You can like it or not but FW was once one of those shiny new things that was added and forgotten about.


I agree 100 percent. My other post wasn't locked for language. It was locked because of visibility. Eventually the link that leads to here will be on the 4th or fifth page because the other thread was locked and people will forget about it. CCP is trying to shut me up basically.

docking rights. its an old topic which came up already a few times.

There is no reason why you should be able to dock in a station of the enemy militia if you do not hold that system. Most fun pvp is far away from all those session or game mechanics timers anyway. Docking games are boring and are just stupid if you think about that.

they are SO many things which could be added to FW without a big overhaul if you have a bit fantasy to put a meaning on the system holding mechanics.

example:
- reduce costs for certain LP-shop items if certain systems are under control
- docking rights
- intel superiority, tells you which plex is under siege
- ...

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value
