EVE General Discussion

1. Remove jump freighters to restore piracy to a viable profession.
2. Remove Concordouken and Concord invincibility and restore them to how they were in beta.
3. New characters start with 10 mil SP so they aren't completely useless.

1) No new ships that aren't coupled to all-new game mechanics.

2) Interactive mining. At a minimum this should be akin to hacking, where you must locate the ore stream within the asteroid. After that you can mine that asteroid for as long or short a time / amount as you want without further interaction (unless it gets depleted.)

3) Absolute moratorium on any increase to player safety in any part of space, in writing (forum post) signed by all developers. Give me that and I'll support larger pools of starting SP and increased ISK rewards in the new player missions. Draw the line about what this game has always been without any ambiguity. It'll only help to retain more players.

-Rethink all the free intel via Local, Map Stats, Watch Lists, Locator Agents, Kill Mails, and API

-Revisit warp speeds to make solar systems feel like Solar Systems instead of rooms that you can cross in seconds - (may require moving gates far closer to center of solar systems to not dramatically increase interstellar travel)

-Revisit the damage system to make it more than just shoot to zero HP and boom



We get way too much intel from too many sources without any meaningful gameplay being involved. As well, we move at such speeds that individual solar systems are frequently just speed bumps in our path to get where we want to. Finally, the damage system is still based upon models from the first games where zero hit points means you are dead.



We should need to work for any information that we gain. We should need to scan to see how many players can be located around us. We should need to go to individual solar systems and perform some gameplay to gain any information regarding that solar system. We should not be able to determine if someone is logged into the game for free and automatically as if we are stalking them. We should not be able to locate someone with 100% accuracy unless we see them on our overview. We should not be able to determine exact fits from kill mails. Kill mails should not even exist. The API should not give out free intel that could be gained within the game via meaningful gameplay.

Movement in this game is simply way too fast. We can cross multiple systems in the same time that it takes to walk to the car IRL. We can cross the entire star cluster in less time than it takes to go to a movie. We should move all gates close to the stars and decrease warp speeds so we can still move in similar time frames, but makes individual solar systems bigger. A delayed NPC logistical system should be implemented that charges you per jump with LowSec and NullSec surcharges that doesn't compete with player created logistical organizations but provides a reasonable service. Maybe 12 hrs per system movement speed.

The damage model should be changed to something more interesting and realistic to where shields and Armor act as damage reduction and the damage that gets through actually damages critical components that degrade ship performance as they become more damaged. This could still allow for shield and armor tanking where the increased resistances and buffer increases the damage reduction. The critical components could allow for something similar to sub system targeting in which one could try to focus on shooting propulsion systems that could increase align times and decrease the effectiveness of prop mods.
Thus, armor and shield reppers would only repair the damage reduction capacity of those systems while in space, but one would need to use other services to repair critical components, while maybe allow for backup components to be designated. There is a lot of potential with this.

I agree. Use of fw plex site triggers suspect. Cannot remember. Is there a gate?

If you change only four letters in EVEO you get BEER.

1. I wanne be able to fly a looping and belly up.
2. Moving planets, moons and stations.
3. Existing planets, where you can crash in. Not these holograms. And suns, that burn your ass if you come too close.

NUMBER ONE - they need fix cloaky campers that will stop an whole pocket
A corp mate and I thought the best way to do this would be a d-scan sonar game.

Now let me explain our idea. We thought of an group "game" , where you and your group of people use d-scan as sonar like battleships looking for an submarine. In this "mode" you use your d-scan and ping down the cloaky. This is way easier with a group of people trying to find one guy.

#2- make plex cheaper
#3- make caps requirements lower

I rather enjoy the game actualy. So my changes are verry unpopular and would cause a cry fest for months but. I would elimnate multi acounts, dual boxing and the communities irational love for fleeting up so that one person can dictate every action the fleet makes.

Um:

- a scout?

- a ship scanner (more a highsec thing, but the tool exists)?
- check the pilot's killboard?

I do use scouts I was just trying to create a more interesting and dynamic game.
