Hypothetically, what if CCP were to decide in the future that there are enough Eve subscribers that additional servers would be better. Each server will have a different twist on the gameplay mechanics to offer tatical/gameplay variety amongst the servers. What "alternative universes" of Eve would you like to see and how do you think the changes would effect the gameplay?
Here's mine:
Server 1: Tranquility
Server 2: Anarchy: -No local in Null sec. -No super caps -No T2 BPOs Effect: probably the Eve that most players have been asking for a long time.
Server 3: Eternity -no microwarp drives -no webbers -no 100MN AB T3s (T3 would only fit 10MN ABs) Effect: not sure, but curious
What's yours?

You might look good with a goatee actually. If the Sims all became zombies it would be easy to escape them, just shove them in a room and make them answer the telephone. |

Server 7:
No gates, no warp drives, only afterburner fits allowed. Lets take space travel to the next level of realism.
Server 9:
PvP is permitted in highsec, but ships destroyed there only drop candycanes and lollipops.
Server 11:
Picking up player corpses inside strange gas clouds causes the debuff 'zombies' , which all of the players abilities are slowed by 10 seconds due to the ships crew being preoccupied with their own survival inside the hull. For added realism, when player zooms into affected ships, terrified screams and sounds of gunfire along with the shuffling of feet can be heard through the hull. |

I think you will find this server is already up and running - it is better known as the Eve Forums |

Its not about "fixing" anything. Its about after a decade of gameplay some tatical variety would do the game some good. There are alot of ways that the game-mechanics could have been hypothetically setup. The *current* game-mechanics exist because of arbitrary whims of the devs. If they had decided to go a different direction with the game mechanics the game tatics would shift to tatics completely different. I think that its an interesting bit of speculation.
For example: What if the devs had never made MW... and without MW, no webbers... what would game tatics be then? Interesting to speculate.

I would rather see CCP open up new area's of space (maybe with different rule sets) then allocate new hardware to a completely different server
Perhaps a new section of 0.0 on the other side of W-Space.

u miss the entire point of eve go to WOW. 1 server and more then 1 universe is a hypothetical multiverse theory. Plus do u even know how much server power it takes to run eve? itd cost millions to get just 1 more server going There Is A 90% Chance All Of What You Just Read Is Wrong, Inaccurate Or Just Me Being Controversial In Some Way.-áOr By Some Chance It's Completely Right In Every Way...

Nah. This whole, single shard thing was interesting for a while, but Eve doesn't scale well after a point and everything will eventually turn to blobs as the Eve population grows. Imagine when Eve has 100k subscribers at once. Blob warfare is fun for some, but not for many. Even WH space will fall to the blobs eventually when the player-base gets large enough.
When CCP was looking at 40k subscribers and 15k max online, a single shard was essential given the number of systems. But when Eve grows and passess 600k subscribers and 100k online at a given time then the gameplay will become increasing more predictable and boring, IMHO

Greetings capsuleer,
Were we to find some way to re-open the EVE gate or a similar mechanism that leads us out of New Eden ... well. I can see there would be significant holes opened up in New Eden; vast and empty areas of space and far fewer capsuleers as the enterprising travel to the new universe.
I don't think this will be a good thing, do you?
Regards,
Shian Yang |

Actually at 5k-15k online, Eve plays just fine... actually it plays better IMHO.

I like it. On the other server you could have the Horde and Alliance at peace or something and make it pure PVE...getting quests and buddying up to go kill 20 sanshas in nulsec would be more fun without the massive alliances living there!
It'd be especially good for the early adopters who could pretty much own the auction house and scoop up all the crafting.
I'd like also to see some different mounts, some that are exclusive to each server. Like the 'Bright White Goddess Thorax' which could have a cooldown perk for blasters or something. |
