Andreus Ixiris Mixed Metaphor Federal Consensus Outreach 822	Posted - 2012.05.02 16:58:00 - [4] - Quote I hope you aren't expecting sympathy. The Caldari militia were perfectly happy to "win" the territory war (as much as one can "win" something that has no true victory condition and no real reward besides a rank pin) using an unbalanced mechanic (downtime shuffle) that it took CCP several years to fix. They then used a different unbalanced mechanic (off-enemy faction standings weirdness with NPCs) to sieze a large swathe of Minmatar territory. They loudly trumpeted their victory and made a big thing of how it was all perfectly legal and not an exploit - which, yes, I will concede that you were correct about. Yes, Damar. You're right. In fact, I, Andreus Ixiris, will happily concede that pretty much everything you've said in this thread so far is entirely correct. You can mark your calendar if you like. But - and this is a big but. Perhaps I'm a little ashamed to admit it, given that I'm trying to be nicer to everyone in EVE nowadays, but I won't lie. I can't help but feel a little bit of satisfaction, because this is pretty much precisely how we felt back when you guys were winning.

They could could be a simple system that gives up to 50% more or less LP based on 10 levels like everything else. If your losing really bad your actions gives you twice the reward they would if you were on the winning side. To be honest, I don't think that's going to be a particularly powerful incentive for the losing side to keep fighting. If I'm going to risk my ship and my pod against a numerically and tactically superior force, I'm gonna want a stronger incentive than "more loyalty points than they'll get if they kill me". I think each individual system should have, like, some bonus attached to it. Like Damar is always constantly trying to capture Intaki, and he should have some much stronger incentive to do that than just "because I want to". Like, capturing Intaki should give industrial bonuses to the whole of STPRO and industrial penalties to the whole of FDU or something like that, whereas by default the FDU has the bonus, but no penalty is given to Caldari because the Gallente are supposed to own that system. Likewise all the systems in Black Rise give a bonus to Caldari but no penalty to Gallente for owning them, but Gallente flipping them cause them to give their bonus to Gallente and impose a penalty on Caldari. Meanwhile, losing systems to your enemy gives you a seperate series of bonuses to the ease of capturing systems, especially their own. I generally think the bonuses should be rigged up so that you have more of an incentive to capture back your own systems first before trying to capture enemy territory. I also think there should be a "front line" of some sort such that you CAN capture systems way behind enemy lines, but it's much easier to do it if you advance sequentially.

Andreus Ixiris Mixed Metaphor Federal Consensus Outreach 822	Posted - 2012.05.02 17:17:00 - [7] - Quote I think unique per-system bonuses, plus a little story fluff for each system and constellation's description like you have for the regions (like the stuff Seriphyn Inhonores writes here) would go a long way to adding story depth to FW without actually doing very much work.

In the word of the immortal Lockout......'Again when is the last time you were relevant in FW?' A more relevant question is "when was the last time I gave a damn?" I don't, last time I checked, require your approval to play a video game, nor to express my opinions on same. When that changes, don't worry - I'll make sure to only do things that make you happy.

The consensus among the FW community was denial of services but ability to dock was a good middle ground. There are so many b*sh ways to get around denial of docking rights that it won't matter to the hard core players but will drive the casual players out of FW. Denial of services is enough of a PITA tbh. Precisely. Unless CCP can provide some sort of foolproof way of preventing players from gaming the system and getting access to docking rights anyway, this is just going to drive casual players away. I do like the idea of denied access to stations, but it has to work consistently, or it won't work at all. X Gallentius wrote: 2. There will be a double hit to income for the losing side. A) They will already lose access to the most lucrative FW agents, and B) they will be further penalized by the reduction in LP payout because they are losing. Denial of lucrative FW agents may be enough. I don't know. It might serve as an incentive for the mission runners to actually get out there and do something to protect their ISK faucet. Not likely though, I guess. X Gallentius wrote: 3. Proposed system upgrades won't be worth the expense. No station in low sec with manufacturing is ever used to capacity. Will "addition of one" factory slot include stations that currently don't have manufacturing? Why not put cynojammers on the table? It would give low sec players the ability to counter 0.0 supercap roflstomp blobs. Something I was worried about is this: what happens if a station's manufacturing slots were full to capacity, and then suddenly a system was lost - what happens to my build job if it's in the extra manufacturing slot that gets axed due to my faction's inability to defend that system? You know what would give a lot of people an incentive to capture systems for their faction? Research slots. ME slots. PE slots. Copy slots. Invention slots. Research slots out the wazoo. If we got +1 of those for every system we captured, you'd see people flocking to FW space. As for cynojammers, they were on the table, I think.
