Player Features and Ideas Discussion

the problem:
- the main ships used in big battles are Drake, Tempest, Hurricane. Which can be visually dull and boring after the first few 100 fleets you've been in.
- in order to compete with other big fleets, and to have a chance at winning you need high range, wide variaty of damage types to deal against hostiles, high alpha, and of course mobility (including the super high signature radius of battleships)

the solution:
- instead of buffing ships, create a new line of rigs that will give high 'gang bonuses' when used on a massive scale. (for example 1x ship with this special rig will give something like 0.1% bonus to all involved)
- so each ship in eve will have their own rigs to make up for their weaknesses in big team battles. (blasterboats get extra range or tracking etc.)
- The bigger the fleet the higher the bonus
- so a fleet of 100 people, the combined bonuses they get from these rigs will improve the different aspects of what all other ships are missing when used on big team battles.
- alternatively: give command ships new modules that can give high bonuses when a fleet is 50-300 man strong (certain ships get certain bonuses, so they cant be applied to all ships, because for example adding more shild bonuses to a Drake fleet would be to much)
- So in the end. A big fleet of Ravens for example, can get certain bonuses to help with their low mobility, high sig radius or torpedo range etc, but they wont be able to get any other bonuses, because for example their shield buff is already high on them.
- When it comes to dmg types ammo can deal, its open to suggestions

examples:
- a rig for increasing agility of apocs, megathrons, ravens (especially bonuses for their use of MWD)
- blasterboats can choose to either improve on their mobility, improve on their buffer, range/tracking for blasters
- giving higher alpha to almost all ships, at the cost of rate of fire
- etc
