I say we should be able to bribe the station staff to flood someones quarters with poisonous gas. Wouldn't require multiple avatars in one place, and just a simple counter saying "We seem to have a breach in security, and someone has sabotaged your air filter. You have X seconds to undock before you suffocate." Perhaps have cost scale with number of uses.

Nothing can happen to you when you're offline

You're new here, welcome

I've always imagined a situation where you could bribe station staff to plant a bomb on board a player's ship.
To prevent it being OP, all you have to do to know it's there is to open your cargo and see 100m3 taken up by a 'suspicious package' that ou are unable to remove from your cargo and then you press a button on the repair panel saying 'check for bombs' for a certain cost. They'll then remove the bomb from the ship.

If a player fails to check for bombs and undocks: The enemy player, the one who planted the bomb, has a button appear on his hud called 'detonate', so he can choose when to activate it.

The bombs can do a couple things, either blow up(simple one) which hits just straight structure. No shields or armour is hit, jsut structure... therefore having a DCUII will help. Maybe doing 5000 omni structure damage.

Can fire an EMP, offlines all modules on board the ship for 30 seconds. Having a co-processor reduces that by 10 seconds per processor.

Can 'low yield' explode and destroy all cargo on board only.

Can ECM burst, jamming the ship for 60 seconds

Can Nuke capacitor for 10,000 cap

Either the bombs can be able to do one of those, depending on offender's choice... or have specific bombs to do one of them. Therefore the enemy player chooses which bomb/ bombs go into the target's hold.

Every time **** hits the fan and the enemy starts legging it or docking up , doesn't is frastrats you?

This would have been something pushed in with Incarna developments.

But since people threw a hissy fit, we may never have "Walking In Station" development ever again. Ever again. We're back down to player numbers we saw during or before Incarna.

I'd be surprised if we see anymore development towards WiS. I'd love to see it. I love me some FiS, but you can only add so many ships, and you can only add (then subsequently abandon) so many features (FW e.g.) before it gets redundant. I've seen some of the Dust 514 beta, and not to break the NDA, but some of the content is clearly "WiS" material. So the framework is there, hopefully not totally abandoned.

People throw a **** fit if mining barges get changed. So if they added "Cantinas" into the next update, people would probably start going mental, I guess?

This is really bad ass dude.

It doesn't even require Walking In Station features. It can be done from the UI.

To add to it, I think you shouldn't be able to do this unless you're at War, or have a bounty on you. Otherwise it could get redundant... maybe not. I'd love to see something like that either way. You could even add in some sort of real-time tracker package, that gives you location updates, and tells you if the pilot is in warp/motion etc.

Man up and kill your targets faster so they dont have a chance to escape!!

man up and be constructive in the evolution of your own game

I thought he was being constructive.




The op idea is a stupid idea really. People will simply log off when entering the station. If you made it so that they could lose their assets whilst logged off in a station they would simply stop playing EVE. You can't compare logging out in space to logging out in a station as it's safe in a station presently and you have a choice where you wish to log out.

but this idea will further the notion of
NOWHERE IS SAFE
not high sec , not low sec , not even stations.
You may log off , but your assets are always present .

Wont that be a fantastic and exciting concept?

In a 1 man ship maybe.

Your all forgetting these ships are crewed by lots of people, not just the avatar.

And considering this is a far future thing, they will have bomb detectors at every port, every dock, everywhere.

Good try though. But fail

Problem is that if people are not online then they have no way to actually do anything about it.

No that will not be a fantastic concept as people pay real money and invest their time into the game so they must be ingame to be able to react to changing circumstances.

thats why I suggested the idea of hiring people as bodyguards from DUST 514
or npc guards to protect your assets

You can't even trust people in EVE what makes you think you can trust people in DUST? Plus what happens when your guards log out do their guards guard them as well as you.

NPC guards would be a waste of time as AIs in games are too predictable and would be easy to dispose of.

It's a bad idea, you would just lose people from the game. And who would want to buy PLEX under those circumstances so CCP would lose out in more ways than one.

thats what makes EVE so special
Trust , you earn it , you lose it and its gone
Same goes for EVE , the same will goes for DUST

you build up a career as one of the best bodyguards in New Eden , and everyone will be dying for you to protect them
and you could set up traps and sabotage countermeasures against it, like everything in EVE
there is always a counter for it
why is it so hard to understand?

You've seen someone get assassinated while in station in the EVE Online trailer , now its the time to actually implement it

When the bodyguards are guarding you, who's guarding their stuff?

I take it you've never guarded anything, it might be an important job but for the most part it's highly boring and this is a game which is supposed to be fun.

Still you may have come up with something that's even more boring than mining. It's still a bad idea.

PvP in stations which assassination would be anyway, assuming the players are logged on is not a problem. But entry to CQs and access to player hangers should be avoided unless they invite you in (they'll be online if they do).

I say we should be able to bribe the station staff to flood someones quarters with poisonous gas.

If that was possible a lot of folks in Jita will be crying. and the GOONs will br crying cause every station they dock up at...

you get the idea
