Originally, i was lead to believe that you could actually hide in and around asteroids (as advertised by CCP in early beta). This however, is still not possible due to the ships tags being shown through asteroids and celestial objects. The ability to sneak-in and hide behind a celestial object would, in my opinion, make ambushes a lot more interesting, even if it could be done with one or two of the new elite frigs?

It IS possible to hide around asteroids, well at least from missiles. If an asteroid is between you and the missile then the missile will hit the asteroid.
But yes, i would like to see radar fail when the ship is small compared to the surrounding asteroids. Perhaps a frigate could hide from a battleship by flying into a field. this would make it a lot of fun as frigates could loose target locks of larger ships by hiding... this would be good escape tactic as well as starting a whole new type of pirate.
I roleplay... there is this computer game called "Earth - The First Genesis" where i play a character in the early 21st century. |

i'd like to see some sort of "power down" option, during which all your ship's systems are offline and would take quite some time (one or two minutes) to power back up. during the time your ship is powered down, your ship is undetectable by sensors, and only by visually spotting your ship would someone actually know you're there. this would make leaving ships out in safespots feasible, as you'd power them down before leaving them there.

Excellent idea the "power down" thing, its in other games aswell. Maybe your ship will be detectable by some special scanner (black ops frig?) but it would make your ship very weak, as your shields wont be up and you wont be able to power up for a min or so. ------------------------------------------
