THEN we will see 0.0 get really full of fun. A good time will be had by all.

Then we would need massive Interdictors capable of interrupting warp drive from across the galaxy.

And what's wrong with that? You already need the bubble to fight anyway. Accept one absurdity, all the others are fair game.

Paradise is like where you are right now, only much, much better.

The only real issue I have with bubbles in general is that they never expire. Other warp disruption fields have a time limit. And most other things as well (you can't leave combat probes out forever

Make them so they expire (can still be a long timer) so they can't be setup and just left around forever. That could change mechanics as people would have to expend more time setting up their traps etc. as well as having to go pick them up when done or otherwise write off the costs when they expire.


Something like a limited power source?


Or even just a timer. Maybe they can even stay anchored, but the bubble only stays up for so long before you have to fly to it and turn it back on.


Maybe CCP should make it so you can shoot them

I would love this truthfully, hopefully the whole PI / dust thing will draw fleets to planets while dust excursions are taking place. Though I wonder how fleet lag with both sides trying to get dread shots onto the ground will fair for dusties when there shot comes in some odd minutes late.

Who's the more foolish the fool or the fool who replies to him?
