Jita Park Speakers Corner

I for one would really like to see a big POS reworking.

'A pos should be something everybody wants', modular, able to jump, all that goodness.

I remember us being called 'golden goose' around the time the NEX was introduced and some other 'interesting' stuff leading up to Incarnarage.
It was a bad choice of words, because it showed a severe disrespect to those who pay CCP to do their thing. Without our funding it's end exercise for EVE.

Now those who keep POS's up are being called a 'small portion of the community'.
Once again a bad choice of words. In this case because there is so much more that hinges onto the antiquated POS system.

That poor choice of words coming from CCP Unifex just gives people the strong notion that the guy in charge has no idea what he or she is talking about. Now that, a game designer showing a huge lack of game knowledge, can put people on the fence, I hope you're not surprised.

It's like when one CCP dev once told us in a dev blog, to go out and target paint Supercaps, Structures, or Sieged Caps.
You just asked for mayhem. (Do a search for CCP Nozh if you're unaware of what I'm talking about).

Are you actually playing your own game or do you make these things up while you move on from day to day? Because that is actually quite necessary since EVE is such a complex game. We're not talking about a predefined theme park here like Wow.


To CCP Gargant:
NO ONE HERE IN THIS THEAD SOFAR SAID OVERHAUL IT AT ONCE. Look I can use caps too. :P





Most of us are older then 12. We say, it must be done. We say it must be done starting now because otherwise, since we know CCP, it takes forever to get it started again. We also say knowingly it is a huge task, to do it in small steps. One at the time.

WE also know about incarna, how much of the expectations got lost, how much it hurt CCP and subsequently our game. No-one in his right mind wants that again.


Just stop swinging around and around. Dev blog says this (too much of a hassle we cannot commit ourselves to just one feature), another one says that (we need to take care of those who enable stuff) and the minutes say something else (POS needs love but we have no clue how what when whenever and POS enablers are not worth our time).







For crying out loud make up your mind! *Focus* for once. Stop being so ultimately vague to us and your self. Set a course and stay with it for longer then a year.

I too approve this rework of POSes as being needed asap.

We have small, medium & large POSes now.

I would like to see another couple of sizes of POSes:

X-large & Capital POSes. These new larger size POSes would allow for more variety of what to do with them. Plus it would make juicier targets for attackers.

It would be cool if there was a mini POS too. The access would be for player only. Would not need any corp roles & could only do one or two things. i.e. lab and personal hanger(ships/mods)

Hydrogen Isos..... all I see in my sleep is Hydrogen Isos!!!!! FTLOG please improve the POS system. This thread has my undying support.

I wish i was joking when i say we have had 2 players quit EVE and never heard from again as a direct result of managing all the POS in our WH.

POS's need major work and modular with improvements would be awesome.

As a inventor, for an invention job it is ridiculous/unintuitive/just plain DUMB that I am required to place BPC, Datacores, decryptors which will be consumed, along with a racial interface that will not be consumed into the same hanger of the same lab I will use for the job.

After doing all those requirements I still have to tell the stupid interface which lab to use!

Some high tech marvel that is.

Lot's of work to be done here, and it is a MAJOR feature of the game for me and many, many others.

Hello, i would also love to say a few things poses can be but are not due to the limitations.

First i must say that building my own pos was what made me start to play eve 6 years ago. And i totally love the concept.

1.Building potential: Currently in highsec all station slots are full while pos slots sit empty. Wish there was a way to publicly rent pos slots in a way that did not require you to turn over all your belongings.
2.Production efficiency: Seriously why do i need to get carpal tunnel again if i want to scale up production?
3.Better permission: system to Pos and corp. You cant do many things without having to give people the possibility to rob you blind.
4.Looks: It's you own damn station, it looks like a damn stick within a bubble. The least impressive structure in eve.
5.Customization: There's really no branding to it. Give it a billboard with the corp logo or something.
6.Moving cargo: Would be nice if we did not have to move the stuff from different cargoes all the time we are in our own station, it can a least move the damn things within its perimeter and not have to use our pilots mechanism to be in range of all the things you want moved.
7. Somehow i am not really impressed by the combat systems around the pos. It should be more fun then afk-ing to bring it down.
8.About the small community part: I am fairly sure, but do provide us with metrics. What % of the existing research/invention/production is being done at poses compared to npc stations. That would sum up the impact of this minority on eve.

Any Dev get into a WH and live in it. You will despise the POS/Corp mechanics as everyone in here does.

At this point this trad have more posts then the 1 year old modules sugestions tread at Feature and Ideas section...
in just a day...

A corp is generally made up of players.

Really individual POSs isn't something I would be all crazy about. However improving POSs to the point where individuals wouldn't have the need for personal POSs is the direction it should go.
