the Jovian Directorate is secretly a division of the Terran Confederation .... we cant access Jovian space because they have the last remaining wormhole back to earth..........
well may be not but it would be a great way to create a back story for an Epic Arc Mission called "The search for Earth".
have a huge epic arc mission set that spans throughout all of known space yes ALL space... (high sec, low sec, npc null, sov null, and wormhole space)
have all aspects of eve careers be required to find the "jump" coordinates AND the blueprint to build a unique ship capable of jumping to those coordinates..... the coordinates lead to the wormhole back to earth. |

Its hinted/rumoured that Sansha's ability to open wormholes and launch his incursions is due to some piece of Jovian technology found in an abandoned(?) Jovian station. That was only last year, so the Jove are indirectly influencing the storyline still.
.
With jump portal certificate, is labeled wormhole Generation, so any pilot with the skills can create a temporary wormhole. Not sure if Sansha is an '03 pirate character but propably played enough to have that certificate. But think she does that in hi sec as well. Which us demi god pilots are not capable of. Mabye that is the big part to it all.
Like the Q comparison, it seems the jovians, but jovians dont like rushing in like retards to make mess of things like them. Mabye the Q people are like the jovians black sheep of the family.
With how the jovians are using sansha (learned from this thread) it reminds me of Lord Zedd in power rangers. He just has Rita(sansha) sent in at first then comes in himself.
They could be like Gandolf as well maybe, he was reclusive and also showed up when he wanted to unanounced. |

Some of that at the end sounded cool. But for us players, on earth and enjoying earth, we kind of want the earth storyline more then the new eden races do. In the story earth ran out of resources for people and they left it a hunk or dry earth of something and found the space we are currently in. I imagine it would be hard for them to go back, since they left it looking terrible and such. Like it would take time to get over that and want to face the past and such.
It is fun for us players to want earth, but we are also a lot less guilt ridden as well. |

About the live events I must admit I have not yet heard or seen many of them, but that might just be a case of wrong place and wrong time.
Dust Chronicles are Eve chronicles, if you read how they're going to start publically testing mercenarty technologies soon, instead of calling it a beta like anyone else means that DUST 514 will be a part of eve online the moment the software is ready for testing. |

The last EVE chronicle was almost a year ago and news are rare.
Personally I would not mind if the sanshas get a break and instead suddenly a number of new and powerful rogue drone hives appear across New Eden, but that is probably just me. yeah, the live events that started last year had no story behind them We been having chonricles you just been lookin in the wrong spot. DUST 514 I believe he was referring to the lack of Jovian chronicles, not chronicles in general.
actually i was refering to deviana saying that the story has been on hold, the incursions and live events behind them were entirely friven by story, as is the current live event, the a'j project and hilen tukos's defection. he appears to be ignoring all of that and the story that goes with it Baa Means Baa! |

In my mind ive always liked to think that the Sansha stole their wormhole generation technology from the Jovians. Because even after the Jovians blew all their gates they managed to pop up around the place still.
Interesting story would be whether they stole it from the jove or looted it from their dead civilization. |

Pretty much this, except I don't think it will necessarily "kill" EvE depending on what / how Jovian content is released. I would expect Jovians to stay quiet and mysterious until EvE needs a huge expansion, the Jovians IMHO are CCP's Trump card for when everything else has run dry.
The possiblities are endless - GM controlled Jovian ship attacks, Jovian Technology (modules? weapon types?) or even *gasp* playable Jovian ships, or Jovian toons.
If I were CCP though, I'd shelve the Jovians till I had run out of anything else to add to the game, when its showing its age, when players are genuinely diminishing en masse - I'd suck em all back in by unleashing this beast for one last hoorah.
Having NPC races that you can't play, but are cool, along with territory you can see, but not visit, is a tried-and-true MMO design tactic - gives you something to salivate over, and making the moment you finally develop and release such content that more compelling.
Fortunately / Unfortunately, there is an almost infinite amount of content to provide to the game in the meantime, as long as players keep subscription numbers going. My money is still on CCP waiting till they absolutely need something galaxy-shattering to shake things up before they dust off the Jovians. |

Well to be honest since everytime if someone talks about new eden they state it as a cluster so i'm wondering isn't New eden a Galaxy at all? Can it be New eden is like a separated Cloud next to a larger Galaxy a few hundredthousand Ligthyears in distance like M31 to the milkyway?
Or maybe its a separated part from a much bigger galaxy maybe at the very end New edens Scientists find out we're just a jump away from lets say Andromeda?
Cause as i see it within current state, nearly all of the 0.0 space is allready claimed and technically nothing new is there to explore except the Jovian space we can see on the map but its unreachable, I'd really like to see Jovians giving away another part of their technology to the rest from New Edens population like they did with the capsules years ago....maybe a better jumpdrive to reach out in the unexplored new to adding space sourounding New Eden but not beeing visible yet cause of the current state of technology.
What about that? |

Why don't you read the Canon, Chronicles, Evelopedia (great source) and other official stuff, you'll find many answers to your questions.
Also, "New Eden" is the commonly accepted name of the cluster of systems linked by the stargates network, originated in the New Eden system, Genesis region.
If you want to see a jovian by yourself, you'll need some special accreditations and extremely high placed connections within CONCORD, for there is a Jove ambassador in Yula+», member of the Inner Circle, if i remember correctly.
Finally, there is space still out of range of Jove influence, w-space, where Sleepers have been hidding / hidden / locked (still the be determined) away from the Cluster for many centuries or even milleniums until the Seyllin Incident.
Read. The. Stuff. Always enjoyable. |

Jove is not the last option for CCP when EVE gets dry, they can expand EVE universe and introduce the people from the Earth, probably the are more advanced then Jove.
In my opinion EVE is lacking "secret" and random content, for all i know everthing in EVE have been discovered, nothing is new to motivate players to search and try to uncover new things. I understand that most o 0.0 people only cares about war and killing each other for power but EVE have other type of players, some of them like to explore and discover new things and that side of the game is mostly dead.
Exploration is doing the same sites over and over again, its fun at start, gets boring after a while.
CCP have a lot of ways to make this game more entertaining and introduce new stuff, lore wise it's unimaginable the paths they can follow. |

The Enheduanni are one faction of a divided Jove, probably the most radical modifiers because 'they are no longer human'.
New Eden (the clue is in the name) is a Paradise compared to the Terra.
Terra is a dystopia, it's probably more closer to WH40k than the Federation.

Basicly this, read the stuff then read it again.
There where some intersting Jove AURORA projects in the early EVE days. Gathering information about those and what the players/actors said might be interesting. I am sure it is floating around somewhere.
In the olden days, all the CCP'ers had Jove Characters. I still have some screenshots of them and their ships lying around. There was also a guy who found an eidolon jove battleship floating around a sun once.

On the back side of the original EVE box from 2003, it said that the Jovians would soon be released.
8 years later. No Jovians.
