It looks like the Deep Space Nine project had a flew and became Empok' Nor.

Yeay-ish.

Why do you want it ? What do you actually do with with it ? This was the start to WIS, which thankfully has been abandoned, its a space ship game.. you need to undock to fly a spaceship.

Dear CCP, we demmand citadel firework launchers+charges.

make it a a FDS firework delight system :p

.

it is to balance them considering how long it takes to take one out after it is anchored

right now it may be hard because they are shiny new and everyone wants the KM give it a few more months and ppl will care about bashing them about as much as they care about POS'

49.5 hrs minimum is a long time in a hostile hole.. not to mention that after anchored it could be up to 7 days before you can even start the attack so yeah it takes a while

then they also have to be balanced for the rest of eve where once they get out of the first repair timer there is nothing you can do about it for pottialy two weeks depending on the vulnerability timers

I want it because it has less flashing lights and billboards than the station interior and is generally a more serene place for me to be. I would be far happier with a better designed station interior, since the loading times and general responsiveness of CQ leaves something to be desired.

Unfortunately, I can't spend all my time undocked. When I'm docked I have to deal with an unsatisfactory station interior. I've had to resort to covering up the station interior with windows in order to have a more comfortable experience. The recent dock/undock animation caused me to resort to CQ for relief from the additional unpleasant side effects I was getting from that and I've now found that I do not want to return to the station interior even after the dock/undock animation has been made optional.

There is also the fact that I and many others have obviously been crying out for more control when in station. The idea that we are only allowed to enjoy the game in a spaceship seems a little limiting. I like spinning my ship as much as the next guy, but I also like walking around my ship, walking inside my ship and all the other things I can only do in my imagination.

My concern is related specifically to the proposed research labs.

Years ago I invested a lot of time and money to fill all of my character slots with datacore alts. Though the returns are small, it appeals to me because it is a continuously accruing resource extraction activity that has absolutely no limit on how long it can accumulate without player interaction (unlike PI or moonmining, which eventually need to be emptied).

I have no problem building a structure for continuing to do datacore farming. In fact I look foreard to that part.

However...

I would expect that the returns ON datacore farming would continue to scale based on the number of characters researching at that structure, their skill level in the research they are performing, and the number of research jobs they can manage.

Provided that is all the case, then as soon as research labs became available I would construct a datacore mart.

Please CCP reconsider the whole defence mechanism of citadels.

1, Citadels rarely die, there are only a few kills/day on the killboards vs Check how many POS dies a day (citadels don't make content)

2, 80% or more of the citadels die after anchoring while they're unfitted an unable to shoot back. (Real fun, real content? )

3, After they're anchored they rarely die cause noone intrested in 3 timers. (why would someone return and siege something 3 TIMES when the owners of the citadel can get nearly all their stuff out by the asset safety mechanisms, really don't you see that there is no real pont of attacking the citadels cause there is no reward for it?)

4, There is no way to interfere the siege timers. Attackers have 0 chance to alter the reinforce timer they don't really have any chance of making the citadel come out on a time more favored by the attacker. (you can not interfere with different time zone player assets..... what is the point of being a sandbox game when you can not even touch different TZ structures? )


-Please consider alterable Reinforce timers on citadels. (exactly the same as it's now with POS's)
This means remove vulnerability settings completely, and make them vulnerable any time, but let owners decide the end of reinforce time by setting the correct ammount of some emergency fuel. Make their defences shoot automatically if it's not piloted. It worked so well for years and now you simply deny any non TZ content. Why you hate EU and AUS timezone players so much?

-Please decrease required siege count to destroy citadels. Don't make players suffer 3 times to destroy something what don't even worth 2 Billion ISK. At least scale them please.

Asrahus 1 reinforce timer, 2 reinforce timer for Fortizar, and Keep 3 for Keepstars if you want, but come on please get rid of 3 timers on Asrahuses it's like having 2 more timers on each control tower.

-Pretty please don't make the same mistakes on the upcoming structures, please don't make them nearly indestructible and completely ignorable like you did with Citadels.
