Don't know how I stumbled across this, but according to this article Rubicon is the first expansion in a multi-expansion arc that will release components and implants that allow capsuleers to build their own jumpgates to new areas.

I haven't seen anything more about this. Anyone care to comment?

POS revamp anyone?


:crickets:


not gonna happen.


thx ccp!


the new deployable devices are the first step to new pos. basically they are testing out the code before expanding it to the level of a POS.

i would guess maybe winter expansion 2014 or even summer 2015 before the old pos code is purged.

I imagine opening up new space will be a slow and bloody process, if done correctly. If CCP opens up too much at once, the pop density will go down dramatically. Space stops being a scarce resource.

I could imagine a scenario where the resources needed for a gate mean only a few can be built at a time, creating a gateway to one new system each. The new area would be a battleground for loads of players flying in, making those few new systems hit spots for battle.

If the 'digging' of new portals continues slowly, this encourages tons of fights, without creating a huge dip in pop densities.

get a movie in cinema and a tv series and population will pose no problems in terms of low numbers...

Are these the gates that connect from our Captain's Quarters to the rest of the station?



I would like to be alive the day CCP decides to make the station accessible, perhaps even have the whole RP player to station environment. I know that second part is pushing it but the first point is what everyone or at least most of us want, right?
