I was trying to watch the war decs discussions at 11:00 o'clock, but it kept telling me I need flash player, downloaded it multiple times, used 3 different Pc's and a laptop, and they all said the same, Did anybody watch it? If so, could you explain what they said and summaries it, please

I missed part of it too, because I was doing a mission. I especially wanted to see the new killmail system and I could hear him showing it to everyone but I alt-tabbed too late. :(

The same, but better. And more expensive.

Costs more to dec a large corp. Base was cost is now 20mill. Dec shedding/misc exploits will be impossible.
Agressor corps can no longer drop a war that is going badly for them etc, a surrender mechanism (with negotiable fees for the surrenduring will be there though.

Some sort of war tracking system, so you can see who's winning at any given time.

A DEFENDING corp can call in allies for no cost or for a fee. (Mercenaries, start getting yourselves geared up!)



Also, possible later additions, killmail overhaul (which wont break API's), Merc marketplace.

watching it now. lot of changes.

greatly increased war cost, taking into account number of players in defender corp, ignoring how many corps they're alreayd at wor with (no war dec sheilds!)
joining an alliance after a war dec to your corp then laving (and thus sheddign the war dec to the alliance) won't work anymor.e the corp will take on the war decs as well as the allaicne and keep them as a seperate dec.
dec's will last a minimum of a week at whic htime the agressor can continue the war by paying the war cost again .lthis cost can change durign that week based o nthe forumla used to calculate it.
wars can be made mutual, but that is not an exclusive requirement. what this means ... i honestly didn't catch.
defender Or agressor can surrender (offcially, through eve systems) and if the surrender is accepted (terms are offered and can be countered) there is a mandatory 1 week peace. no instant war dec after surrender.


allies:
defender corp can call and ally to their aide. agressor canot call allies.
allies are called for a specific war dec.
damn, he switched slides!
there will be a mercenary marketplace for hiring merc corps. accessible trhough contract UI or war UI

there will be offcial war reports, covering all loses and even including info on major battles durign the conflict.
changes to kill mails, but i missed what it was (since i was typing this!

more ot come.

oh, right - ceo's handle the declerations, no more voting on them.
corps and alliances will have war Histories as well, useful for merc corps for obvious reasons.

he's summarizing now... so i think that's everything, more or less. theres more stuff, but nothing he wants to mention until it's finalizxed and decided how to do it. of course this is all work in progress and they'll communicate significant changes via blogs and such. eventually they'd like to do a treaty system, etc.

Those look like some nice changes, no safe highsec, but some deccers are going to be in for a shock when they hit alt corps.
