A probe used by Force Recon Ships that transmits live video feed to a special monitor added as 4th tab in Scanner window.
1) Launcher must be able to launch only 1 probe and have long recharge (Like a bomb launcher) 2) Probe should be effective only in same solar system 3) Probe should be easily destructible and should last <5mins 4) Probe should be able to enter wormhole, but sit immobile on the other side until destroyed/picked up/expired 5) Equipped launcher should disable Recon ships ability to fit covert cynosural field generators (or/or) 6) Player should be able to rotate view on recon monitor and see only ship types on it (not player or corp/alliance) 7) Player should be able to share his monitor with fleet members in same system with a single click on button. If probe is lost, all transmissions end. 8a) If 2 or more people share their monitor they should be either set as tabs (***) or 8b) Number of transmissions should be restricted to 1
9) Arazu, due to its ugliness, can not fit it until it gets new hull.
Summary:
-This should be mainly WH mod, that gives people in WH (and people attacking them) more control on the battlefield. Its tactical mod that should make Recon Ships usable in WH's as now they are not, and make Recon ship next class of CovOps frigs. It is my strong belief that eve players should be given more "range" in their gameplay, and this is just one of my ideas how to implement that. What is common for all of them is that they are hard to implement, and this one might even be the easiest, so I'll go with it. But.....
***Although I don't like it cause it ruins my concept, corp mate just gave me an idea in case you like it, but can't implement it, and that is that it gives you a 20-100-grid range D-scan of landing side. This would make it easier to use also.... |

I like.....I drool....but I'm not sure if it will fly so well.
I'm gonna sit on the fence for a bit on this one. ================ STOP THE EVEMAIL-áSPAM! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=78152

No, because you picked on the Arazu. |

I'm going to go ahead and say no on this. But I'm not going to be and asshat and make fun of your idea for the simple reason that I like the fact that you at lease had an idea, and weren't afraid to post it.
Now, the reasoning behind the no:
- Force Reconnaissance Cruisers already have the capability to fit a Covert Ops Cloaking Device, and can warp cloaked, thus precluding their need for a further means of covert surveillance. You can move around pretty much undetected (unless you happen to **** up and warp to zero)
- Programming this would be an overwhelming pain in the **** for CCP, and as a result, would probably get swept under a rug somewhere, or forgotten about for a few years, as other major issues that have come up are just now being addressed.
- Server strain that would be produced by hundreds of people using at a time would get ridiculous, because you know that people would abuse them when they first came out (ESPECIALLY if you're trying to share the view from the probe amongst several other players or hundreds of players in larger fleets)
But, I at least give you credit for having an idea, and putting it up on here for everyone to see. Don't get discouraged, and keep them coming. This is how the sandbox gets improved. Well, that and if Draconis would stop ****posting and actually play the game. Mr. I don't want to be a pet but am suddenly one of CFC's pets. Hilarious.

I don't really see the point. I just sit on grid and watch stuff. Oh,wait...is that too much risk for you? It's time to put an end to CCP's war on piracy. Fight your own battles and stop asking CCP to do it for you. |

I have to admit the probe"cam" idea has merit....just that bit. ================ STOP THE EVEMAIL-áSPAM! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=78152

Yea, I see the problems. but I do not agree with
"- Force Reconnaissance Cruisers already have the capability to fit a Covert Ops Cloaking Device, and can warp cloaked, thus precluding their need for a further means of covert surveillance."
because that's same as CovOps frigs and T3 Cruisers if fitted to do so, so they do not have a unique cloaking capabilities usable in WH and most fleets. But not even that, sharing the view with FC and fleet would really make the experience unique.
And I would personally drop it mainly because
"- Programming this would be an overwhelming pain in the **** for CCP, and as a result, would probably get swept under a rug somewhere, or forgotten about for a few years, as other major issues that have come up are just now being addressed."
But I at least see that people like the "cam" idea, which was actually the whole point of this idea, to do something truly remote, so I will see to think of something more useful using that tech. And I don't care if it would take them 5 years to build it if people like it :)
Thank you all for comments, but keep them coming, they will all be read and replied to if they require it. |
