Ah, the necessary Goonswarm Though Police swoops in with the usual charm and grace. The rest of us are knuckle draggers. So begins another day in the wonderful sandbox of Eve. Oh mighty Goon master, please forgive us for discussing ideas that you in your infinite wisdom do no wish us to consider.
I don't really care about the chaos this would cause, I think it's a fine idea. I am in general in favor of any thread that draws such immediate righteous wrath from our overlords. |

There's a difference between sparking pvp conflicts and forcing alliances to upend their poses and all their equipment and move every few months. The logistics would suck and no doubt the grunts would get sick of moving their crap from station to station. Part of the reward for null is staking out a home and being secure in the knowledge you're going to hold it for the forseeable future.
Secure in the knowledge that you are going to hold the territory for the future - sounds like there is very little risk left in null sec for the big boys. I thought null sec was all about the risk. Apparently not.
I'm being sarcastic of course. How much risk does a 9000+ member alliance actually face in this game? Very little. The supposed risk versus reward system is in fact meaningless in the game. The big boys have all decided that high sec is their future, and that stirring up trouble in high sec is the real end game of Eve. Their nice little suburbs in null sec are basically untouchable except by another monster alliance.
This game is now like playing chess with all of IBM, and the next opponent up is Microsoft. The little player can't compete. Good job there, sandbox. |

It simple wont be profitable for most, and so (imo) worsen the stagnant situation.
Now, make it so the shuffle takes place every...6 months? Possibly even 12 months would be more likely. You have to take in to consideration that after each shuffle, the moons will have to be rescanned to find where the materials are, which takes a lot of time, not including moving infrastructre. I see your point and concede. How about a reshuffle at every "expansion" ?
Stick to your guns, OP. What we need in Eve is fewer poses in null sec. Change the moon mix every day. |
