If you could add one thing and remove one thing from Eve, what would those be?

Remove: Cyno's

Add: Ability for capitals to jump/bridge without a Cyno. The caveat being that while they can cyno into a system without the need for the cyno field at the other end they cannot choose where in the system they land, or bridge.

Remove grinding of rep/standings. It's a crap mechanic designed to be a time vampire.

Add random large patrols of player-level Concord in fleets to null/low sec. Without god-mode, players can shoot them and have a chance in hell of winning, or possibly randomly be ganked by them. It adds an additional element of risk, and players get to get their rage from being popped by Concord out at the same time. Not to mention new fun Concord modules from the loot fairy.

...or maybe I just enjoy blowing things up.

Cyno's got my vote. Or make them fit on only a few specialized ships, perhaps recons.

Add: Jukebox

Remove: Gate jump animation (an off switch will suffice)

Why a switch on/off? Because the new animation doesn't add anything to gameplay and it's graphically annoying. In other words, it's worse than bad: it's useless. Simple as that.     _ - Kina Ayami_

i love any twitch style game-play, mainly because my reaction time isn't slowed down by sausage fingers, a heart condition, or crippling old age.... (i hope you know im just having a little laugh)

but for reals, ive never heard anyone mention a mechanic for hacking that could shut down a gate...but its perfect. its the game-play that hacking and recon ships have been waiting for. it jives perfectly with the theme of EVE, it seems like it could be fun, really powerful if done well, but hard to exploit as long as there is a cool down between hacking attempts. maybe 5 or 10 minutes in between each 30 second shut down. i think having it shut down for a minute, but then have a cool down of 20-30 after would also work really well.

super idea though, im with you 100%

Add: ability for all ships to jump from system to system with their own warp drives.

Remove: all mining by players and replace them with NPC mining ships that the players own and deploy (and must defend from other players)
