Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Okay, so, since the CFC would pretty well immediately use this stuff on LITERALLY THE ENTIRETY OF EVE, and would likewise have the same methods used against them, what's the endgame here? K-Space is completely uninhabitable, WH dwellers win eve?

The bombs don't go off one at a time, they go off during the same server tick (or two) and thus see all 50 frigates/pods...

Which would actually just make things worse by lengthening the ticks, thus making it easier to get all the bombs going at once.

Also, you can't just decide to tidi you know.

Terror works because the masses can die and that scares them allowing political action to take place by either promoting a campaign or forcing one.

By this logic terror campaigns in eve would have to revolve around damaging not the large assets of current alliances and coalitions but their members.

These attacks would then have to do damage to things like moons that allow lucrative ship replacement programs or do damage to groups renting who can't afford a SRP at all. On of OPs ideas about restricting station use (aka locking member access to assets) might be an option as well.

There is one solid way to terrorize large empires as of now and that is to attack their renters. Given the income from their moons though that's just going to end up being a drop in the bucket even if your campaign against their renters is successful. A boost to siphons in a way that the attacker doesn't benefit but the defender is hurt decently could be one of those changes.

These are methods that work well against larger targets while leaving smaller targets unaffected as well due to the fact that smaller null entities rarely if ever have renter empires and the moons they do have (if they're in control of them) are actually defended because it's likely in their home system. Larger empires however can not denote such massive resources to constantly defend their renters or all their moons.

Confirming that a mass jump by even something as small as an incursion fleet hitting gates simultaneously will cause tidi in highsec (where crimewatch overhead makes things like jumping hurt the server in the no-no bits)

...Okay, so you make literally the entirety of EVE completely uninhabitable.

Then what? You never actually addressed my point. What is the endgame here? How can there be an unending war when every single station is locked up, and everyone's assets have been removed? Do we fight one another in ibis fleets?

The entirety of even isn't uninhabitable stations and systems would be locked into the mechanics for a limited time span and due to the costs involved even larger entities would still have to pick and choose their targets so they don't waste vast sums of isk. You claim that it would break everything is simply a lie your telling yourself. It would be as EVE always has been Adapt or get out of the way so someone else can take your place.

I did answer your question when I mentioned that these mechinics would likely be deployed after sov mechanics and after or during the deployment of alliance built star gates. Beyond that EVE is a sand box so there isn't any true end game either way since if you get bored doing one thing then you simply shift your focus elsewhere and do something else.

If you had labelled your thread freedom fighters, there would not be any issue and it would have made your point even better.

Your labeling is misguided, wrong and I am appalled that you can't see that.
