How would adding ship upgrades that effect the stats and performance of your ship cause Lag ??????
This is not a major graphics change !
Unless you decide to have ships change colour to indicate the upgrades.
Even that is not such a big deal - now your ships red instead of grey - so what ??

Another thing, that is very interesting with this idea - especially if the agent fees are high enough and the modules itself is expensive too - then we would have a true moneysink in the game. If you trick out your ride, and loose it, not only is the money on the agentfee lost, but you dont recover the installed item either. This could mean that people was less inclined to refuse to pay ransoms... maybe.
Just my thoughts on yet another dimension this would add to the game.

Yup, the old 10, 20, 40, 80, 160 pattrn of increased spending would make this doable.
For increasing a frigates slots initial cost 100 mil, (200, 400)
For increasing a cruisers slots initial costs 200 mil (then 400, then 800)
For increasing a BS slots 300 mil
Why is this a good idea? well i recon that it would be an ideal way to get the uber rich players to lose thier money, and give them some fun in the mean time. CCP wont respond though, they seem to be too busy spamming to reply to suggestions.

Further to agent drops; no, thats not a good idea. A function of this would be to remove money from the game. Make it a special NPC hot rod shop. Maybe make the station require tech 3 goods, a bit like a POS, but owned by the NPC's.
That would even the playing field; yes, they would kill more people, but hehe, when thier ship popped they would cry like a baby, and be poorer for it.

I e-mailed this suggestion to CCP - not had a response as yet.
Either they dont care to reply ?
Are too busy to reply ?
Or.....
I dont know what else
CCP Please Reply !!!!
You gota agree that even if the specifics of this need a little more thought the idea is basically very sound and very popular :)

i think that might be a little too high priced
i was thinking more along the lines of 15/30/60 mill for frigate.
cruisers would be 30/60/120
and battleships would be 60/120/240
the money needs to be high, but not so high as to only let the super rich get the lower frigate versions
these prices are i think reasonable, as they are a major cash investment for the ship they would fit.
also the tech2 ship's (even frigate tech2 ship's) should be more higher than the standard ones and be limited to only 2 items installable

Good idea
especialy if it was a special module that you fix on your ship, and if you die it may stay in your can

Your probably right Nervar but doesnt it fire the imagination to have endless posibilities in EVE with regard not only ship customisation but in other areas too :)
I always dreamt of star wars type battles and flying the fastest custom ship in the fleet the Millenium Falcon :)
Remember that the appeal was in the custom built/upgraded non convetional part ....

There's a difference between a bit of unpredictability and an unfair advantage. Unpredictability is already in game. Although most ships have a certain setup that most people go with, you can never be certain. Extra slots, ship upgrades and the like are what Tech 2 ships are all about.

eve is not for the individual to shape how they want it. this idea is awful and atleast 50% of players wont want it. making it a no go as any idea upsetting 50% is going to lead to bad press for the game.
bad press for the game = less new players, less new player = no cash, no cash = end of eve.

o and they will probably rofl @ you e-mailing them due to the fact they have spent the last year balancing the ships and the rolls they play to make the game more specilised and you want them to give every ship more slots and the ability to do other things.

Youa are contradicting yourself :)
Why do you want a silver magnate ????
Isnt it to have something a little different to everybody else
Like i say all this balancing is a load of garbage any race can fly any type of ship with a little extra training and all races will have the customisation ability anyways...

the silver mag is a collectors item not a personalised ship. its not 1 of a kind (1of16), has a value beyond any frig and thus has no roll in game besides a collectors item.
and as that will not mess up the fine balance of the game due to the fact finding it doing any thing but flying round for the sake of it would be extreamly rare and finding 1 in pvp every day is impossible.
