Player Features and Ideas Discussion

You thought you were doing the right thing, you thought it would be good to make frigates be capable of wagging war by themselves, and single handedly, you've killed a game that has made up part of my life for the better part of twelve years.

This isn't working, you need to do something drastic now, or when the new Destiny expansion launches and a number of other new games launch in the next 30 days, you are literally going to lose everyone to something better, shinier, newer.

Make stations destroy-able now. This isn't a half bargained option. You've killed this game. Take a gamble and make us have big fights RIGHT now to bring in new players and bring returning veterans back, who feel their **** is safe in station. If you don't do this now, this game is dead.

This is not a lie. Those stats dont lie. You are on the down trend.

Do it now or else.

Apart from all this guy says, the charm of Eve is EVERYTHING is prone to be destroyed, except player made stations, why? this is stupid, I understand NPC stations and Conquerable Stations can't be destroyed, but Outposts should, in fact, not allowing new permanent structures with the new structure system CCP will release is not a solution, there are too many stations already on game, and they need to be able to disappear. IMHO

Honestly, CCP, we know you are seeing shrinking revenue numbers month after month. We don't need to tell you any more about this, I'm sure you've had your conference meetings and your round tables for ideas.

If you don't make some drastic changes to this game in the next 30 days you are seriously toast, and that is not a harsh speculation it's almost a certainty.

Here's a bit of a news flash, I'm not sure the vets leaving now are going to come back without a fight (to be had!).

so scary. let numbers decide how the game should be run, that's brilliant...

Posting in stealth EVE is dying thread.

Man, it would be great if CCP were to start working on something like this. Make a new type of destructable station. Something to replace the terrible POS mechanics and set-up/tear-down stuff, you know? They could be big. Like, HUGE-big. And the biggest would be big enough to dock even a Titan in! They're so big though that simply calling it a "station" or "outpost" just wouldn't cut it. We would need something else. A better name. A BIGGER name! A name like CITADEL!

Man, that would be great if CCP were working on something like that right now wouldn't it.

It amazes me really how people still believe that destructible stations will make Sov better. People are already fed up by the "hard" maintenance of sov itself due to sov lasering, yet people want to put all the things they have in a Citadel that can be blown up by anyone with a relatively sizable power level without any problem. And they furthermore expect that this massively increased vulnerability to lose everything (yes, even with the 50% drop chance, you can lose everything) and being coerced to maintain a very close guard 23.5/7 on these structures (making sov even more of a chore according to some people) will make the game play better, while they say, in the same thread, that Fozziesov's approach on keeping sov, that is being applied in the same way to the structures, will make destructible stations a most wanted feature for sov holders.

I guess it's only befitting that this stupid demand comes from a CFC member, who will be on the forefront of burning these structures down where ever they will show up.

There is an easier solution to lack of content: Dissolve the CFC. You cannot imagine how hight the tsunamis will be that wash through New Eden and how entertaining the ensuing activity will be.

Everything destructible is good, but the safety mechanic is NOT. Because if you kill a citadel, and i guess the same can be said of current sov stations, all the stuff that belongs to you or the corps will just be teleported to another station, for a fee (like fee matters in sov powerhouses). And thats not destruction in anyway. All the stuff in a playerowned citadel/station needs to be destroyable. EVERYTHING.

But well, i wonder what happens with sov null, if all their precious stuff can be blown up when the donut-imperium attacks. Even emptier nullsec? Everyone living in npc null, beside donut? Even more people in highsec?
Peoples are risk averse, thats why they also dont want their local to go.

When stations should die then LOCAL SHOULD DIE TOO.

I like where they're going with the upcoming destructible citadels and safe goods. I like to keep a small margin of safety, for people who want to establish a long-term asset savings, or who wish to quit for a while and come back to find their stuff still exists. It simply needs to be limiting, complete safety should be for long term storage, not for brandishing regularly. Even nullsec needs long-term storage, because some people live there and only there.

They will eventually be destroyable.

That said, NPC null stations at the very least will have to be too.
