And the Sov people, just take a look at FW space. Nobody cares too much about 0.0 conqurable space.
True even if they control a planet, it is not like they can launch titan ships into orbit, zero space should be pretty much as it always was.
I await more details on this.

FW Sov is a joke.
0.0 Sov nets you control over stations, protects assets, lowers cost of fuel, permits JB networks, allows cyno jamming and cyno beacons.
Quote: zero space should be pretty much as it always was.
Tell that to BOB. When their sov suddenly vanished, everything fell like a house of cards. Sov means a hell of a lot in 0.0.
Then CCP need to be very careful as I imagine 0-0 makes up a huge playerbase in EVE which would emorage quit if this affects Sov.

It's a bold move, I give CCP that much.
Without knowing more details it is hard to judge but from what little we have I have a question.
The age and mindset of Eve-Online players and the age and mindset of console FPS players; are they compatible?
I ask this because if Dust influences the Sov mechanics in Eve-Online, that would imply that Eve-Online Alliances would have to include a Dust based component (a land army) in their strategy towards galactic conquest.
Will the two mesh properly?
I think that is the big risk CCP is taking.

People aren't going to emo rage quit or they would of already done so considering how BoB was ousted from Delve. Or should of if they really care so much about sovereignty mechanics in EVE.

Curious - I haven't yet heard of any PS3 game that allows the use of a mouse...
Care to list a few for me? (you can mail them ingame if you don't want to list them here)
Besides that, I'm still having a laugh at all the people raging about sovereignty mechanics when the game is still in development and no concrete "can/can't do" lists have been published by CCP. ---

Skills required Cov ops 5 and bomb deployment 5. Result, watching people emo rage on the xbox forums for months. Would be classic, specially if there are icons on the overview that tells you what planets have battles raging on them. SCHALAC HAS SPOKEN |

Errrm, what happened to bob was an isolated event that only effected bob. If this turns out to actually have an effect on 0.0 sov then everyone at once is going to be effected with nothing to do about it but pay for mercenaries in the console game to help keep your sov up. Instant and total emoragequit mentality with a perfect justification. Which is why the console game effecting the 0.0 sov game ain't gonna to happen.

When it takes control of sov away from the original game, original gaming system, and puts it on consoles? Yes, that's gonna rub people, including me, the wrong way.

It occuring was a completely different issue. That was a problem with how Alliance mechanics work. The issue I was bringing that up, was that sov is a BIG part of 0.0 . You don't suddenly up and take it away from the original game, and make people purchase another game, and for some to purchase a several hundred dollar gaming system, JUST to help the alliance your in, keep sov of the space you live in. --------------------------------------------

Let's assume that the winter expansion for Eve will introduce new 0.0 systems.
Then it would make perfectly sense that the Dusties will be able to fight for these 0.0 systems only - with the help and for the existing Eve alliances.
Sounds pretty pure winsauce to me! Existing 0.0 is unaltered, new 0.0 systems will need Dusties. If you support the Dusties with your Eve forces then they will have better chances.
From what I hear we need MORE ties and interaction between those two elements! Mutual chat channels, shared industry, same crop/alliances - and of course same isk currency!
Woaaaaaah, this could be THE BIGGEST INNOVATION in the MMO for years now - if done right.
Awesome awesome.

How can you even say that it only effected BoB? It can happen still to any alliance in the game right now. For whatever reason some one of power can completely destroy your work of years for no reason other than because they can. Yeah, good mechanic there to play with. SCHALAC HAS SPOKEN |

Because it only effected bob? Of course there is always the chance that it might happen to another alliance but after bobs harsh lesson I doubt it will be nearly as easy to pull off as everyone should be superparanoid now about access and also know to not ignore thier directors when they get all emo from lack of attention. That is a normal eve mechanic as trust is all that you have to protect you in this game.

Actually I could see some interesting things that could be done with the fw contested system process if it is tied into it somehow.
Yeah, I'm seeing this as FW, not 0.0
People need to hold off on the :RAGE: until we have confirmed details.
Regardless, it is a bold and innovative move by CCP. Props for that. Let's hope they can bring it off.

Working as intended? Recruit better security type personalitys into your huge alliance then? I mean if you are already the ceo to thousands of players then you should have the intellect to impliment the proper measures against high level spys and the potential damage they can do, yes?

Okay, this does have the potential to screw up what some people believe to be vital sov mechanics in one way or another.
However, the absolutely earth-shattering step CCP could be taking, merging EVE with a futuristic combat MMO platform (thinking PlanetSide-like here)... well, as someone who has played a lot of EVE and a lot of FPS... this could be the greatest merge of gaming and game genres of all time.
My only gripe is @ the 'console only' bit... those two words guarantee the game will be dead in 5 years. That will need to be fixed, IMO. I can count on one hand how many still-active online shooters have come off consoles with fingers to spare. And, let's face it, an experimental title like this is unlikely to be the next Halo.
Don't crucially integrate EVE's slow-burning environment with the FPS console world of three-month half-lifes and rapid playerbase decay. Instead go with the Half-Life like PC FPS communities that refuse to die. People still play CS and PlanetSide as well as the Unreal games. Because, 10 years from now when PS3 and X360 are dead technology, and people are still upgrading and playing EVE on new boxes (hedging a bet this game will survive 10 more years, forgive me) that FPS integration means absolutely nothing.
I won't lie, I'm absolutely in love with this idea, but let's just tread with caution when dealing with console games and the gamers they produce- while the concept is incredible the playerbases are critical as well to success or failure- and hordes of raging 13-year-old XBL pubbies could do what many others have failed to do- make EVE unplayable.
TL:DR; Awesome potential, but console games burn out way too fast, integrating with slow-mo EVE is asking for instability in both game 'worlds'. Also consoles are fail.
