Venom Snake posted:Won't this seemingly put a bit of a damper on roaming gangs if every null Alliance is encouraged to pack absolutely as many bodies into a system at once? And as one of the above mentioned it seems strange to rework the system to make it harder to hold while not offering much more encouragement for actually holding it. Player density is cool and good but it seems like hubris to assume people will want to live in nullsec just cause' You make it seem as if thinks these things through. Evidence exists showing the opposite.

Venom Snake posted:Player density is cool and good but it seems like hubris to assume people will want to live in nullsec just cause' I'd say a bigger concern with promoting 'player density' is the fact that a single system, even with max upgrades and decent true sec, can only support a few people running anomalies (and belts I guess, if that's still a thing) at any given time. If they're going to do the whole homeworld-esque constellation thing, that design principle needs to pull players into those dense systems instead of sending them away to outliers in search of a quiet place of red box slaying.

Yeah, we need to keep hitting CCP over the head with this until they get it. There's not much point to "building an empire" if there are no tools to actually build anything worth living in.

make havens / sanctums a lvl 6 mission type thing and we'd be good to go. especially when the mission system allows for infinite support within a given system.

vulvamancer posted:That wasn't a fight last night it was a turkeyshoot. Darkness got a dozen battleships trapped in a WH when the entrance closed behind them (to their credit they were trying to close it so at least they succeeded at that). They then realized that they now had even numbers to us and ran home. We caught about 15 of them with a bubble on their undock and murdered them. I DID get hit once and panic-warp to a belt, then panic-warp back when I saw red crosses, then broadcast that I needed armor and some kind logi sicced his drones on me. So that was nice But yeah, it's kind of my problem that I really need good visual or audio feedback in games to not be bored easily. High-"impact", if you will. Guess that's why I tend to gravitate toward your TF2s and such rather than your... well, your Eve Onlines Dunno if this game's for me, but I'll try for smaller actions from Topgoon or Space Violence or something before my month's out if I can.

Enemu posted:Blame Greyscale for totally loving Anoms and the entire distribution of null income There are dozens of things CCP could have done to unfuckulate NPC/Sov Nullsec by now, but they all involve 'fixing' PvE to be something a bit more enjoyable than warp to anomaly, orbit something, launch drones, try not to fall asleep (I'm arguably the worst PvE pilot that there ever was, don't eat me alive if this is all hopelessly stupid). Just the short list: -If Sansha can have Incursions through-out the known universe, why can't there be mini-incursions of region specific pirates that award LP/Space Dollars? -Why aren't there mission agents in Stations, or better yet, why can't there be some ridiculous platform upgrade to allow the hiring of specific faction agents upgraded through use? -Why are anomalies split up into strictly combat, strictly mining, strictly exploration? Why aren't there team based objective type 'hack these cans while stemming off waves of n faction rats? Ghost sites, on steroids. -Why are LP Store goods uniform across all securities of space? Why doesn't nullsec offer poo poo you can't get in highsec (aside from gratuitous pubbie tears)?

However, Greyscale messing with anomalies made everything worse, and basically reverting or changing a bit what he did in 2011 would help out. Let us all be reminded of what was said in 2011 quote:Expected consequences

Enemu posted:unfucking PVE is a totally different discussion, but one that I think everyone at this point is loving baffled hasn't actually produced anything out of CCP since like, Incursion. It's pretty key to actually promoting sov density through FozzieSov though- what's the point of amassing pilots in a small smattering of systems, if those systems can't reward the pilots? At this point, the only reason for most people to hold sov is because it's become canon as part of their identity in game; Deklein is to Goons, what Provi is to CVA, to what Tribute is to... Falcons.

The problem imho was scaling with the higher end site which pretty much required T3s to deal with the battleship spawns. Now it's entirely possible to explore with a lowly covops (bypassing the more expensive Sisters hulls) making it more accessible. - Pirate/ORE stuff aside this is interesting, but the counterpoint to that is most stuff worth having comes in the form of a BPC or small cargo, so really making people jet around in interceptors would really raise the barrier to entry. Also no empire faction agents in null.

Boat posted:What I'm getting out of all this is blow poo poo up in SV or Holesquad or something, and train logi to be loved & useful on fleet ops. Pretty much. No matter the fleet size, being in a logistic ship always gives you the feeling of actually being useful. You may not appear on killmails (unless they fixed that?) but you get to know that some fleet members will be flying back to base in their ship rather than their pods thanks to your intervention. Some FC's will not undock unless they have a minimum number of logi's. If you're in one, you're one ship closer to actually leaving the station. It makes it all worth it. Logistic ships = Best ships.

Flew 30 frigates down to Brave Newbies' space, they formed a fleet double our size, we warped around trying to get a good position and jumped directly into a 30 man Black Legion Gila fleet. We promptly died.

They DO have a team working on PvE stuff, it's just that their tools for content creation are poo poo, among other problems, so that holds them back until they resolve it. The AI is also braindead, although if drifters are any indication they've made some progress in that regard.
