Those deepsafes really gave you a feeling of being in space. Needing like 5-10 minutes to reach such a spot with a capital ship while watching the solar system go further and further away was very nice to watch.
agreed to infinity. I've been around long enough to see that every time ccp 'expands' eve,they manage to shrink it just as much if not more. let me count the ways:
- the mythology of the game itself has canonized the fact that gates MUST AND CAN ONLY operate in binary star systems, yet we cannot travel via warp to those stellar companions (out past 1000au), or exploit what might be there. Hell... WE DONT EVEN HAVE PROPER ASTEROID/KUIPER BELTS, OR OORT CLOUDS!!!
- WE ARE NOT ALLOWED to warp to the countless single-star systems that lie beyond the reach of the gate network.
- capital ships may ONLY jump to a beacon created by another ship that had to travel the gate network - something I have had an issue with for a long time (for high precision jumps, a cyno makes sense, but a jump capable ship should be able to jump based solely on it's own sensor fixes with much reduced accuracy).
- Speed Nerf. WTF??? (don't tell me it was the best way. there were other solutions that you ignored)
Quote: All this stargate-travelling is so unimpressive. I wish there was a possibility to actually "warp" from one system to another. Though we'd need a new shipclass for that as even very close systems are over a lightyear away from each other. It'd take a covops with unlimited capacitor about 1 hour and 18 minutes to warp 1 light year (As 1LY is about 63240AU if i'm not wrong).
you know something, I would LOVE to have the option to warp to a system with no gates, even IF IT DID take hours or days to do so! NEW ORIGINAL CONTENT. NO LOCAL. NO SAFETY NET. (yeah, I know the wormholes bring some of this to eve, but W-space is STILL highly limited - in many ways even more so than the normal systems.)
space is supposed to be BIG, BEAUTIFUL, WONDROUS and most of all DANGEROUS! (yeah... I said it... eve is supposed to be a BBW with DDD's lol)
