Cynos, bridges etc. are just garbage to avoid PVP and killed one of the main factors of risk in low and 0.0 sec.
Cynos and titanbridges are a huge source of risk in 0.0, though. It's a hell of a lot harder to be immune to the risk of a hotdrop than putting a scout in neighboring systems.
And if it wasn't for titanbridges and jump bridge networks we couldn't go roaming in Cobalt Edge halfway across eve while drunk and Deklein couldn't play host to roaming gangs from everywhere all the time. There isn't enough stuff or people in 0.0 to justify 'expanding' it by increasing travel time and even if you could you'd be removing conflict generators in doing so. |

When I first joined EVE in 2007, five years ago, 0.0 was dominated by a handful of ******* enormous coalitions, so if you're appealing to some glorious pre-cyno balkanized nullsec I actually have no idea what it may have been like.
Even without titanbridges we still blobbed the **** out of everything possible all the time, we just spent ten times as long travelling to the fight and we'd hope the node didn't crash.
e: somehow I suspect that having an even smaller population density than 2007 it was mostly uninhabited |

Frankly **** your ten man corp if means making the game miserable for my 8000 man corp. This isn't a point we're going to agree on, obviously, but I'm much happier with it being far more enjoyable to fight other giant coalitions at the expense of tiny corps not being able to take space.
I'm pretty sure wormhole space was made explicitly for the purpose of smaller corps having an opportunity to settle a frontier with unique, highly profitable resources that a tightly knit small group would have a dramatic advantage over, so I don't feel bad about 0.0 not being that place and don't think there's any reason for CCP to make it that place.
e: I like big space battles and I cannot lie, you other pilots can't deny that when a girl walks in with an itty bitty cyno and 2000 ships in your face you get sprung |
