I have a thought I would like to share. Exploration is a moot-point in EVE. Everywhere that is ANYWHERE either has been found, claimed, and inhabited; or is uninhabitable. Here is an idea that might have some measure of plausability...
Exploration Jump-ships. They have the ability to discover new systems, and, once reached, could be converted in to the "recieving" end of a jump portal.

Simply put, EVE has become too crowded for the number of players in the game...sigh.

Leave highsec.

Try leaving highsec

I have left HS on numerous occassions. And in every NS system i visited, there were people there...trying to FIND and KILL me. You miss my point in this thread it seems. Please refer to the title I created with this topic...eve has become crowded. There is nowhere that hasnt been explored anymore. Even if the exploration jump-ship went to a randomly generated system which could never be returned to, it would STILL give a sense of exploring the unknown.

Open up Jove space.

Leave high sec..





HAHA - NO! Don't follow the mindless fools above and beyond! Find a system in highsec and make it your own.

you just need a good captan and strong corp

EVE is too crowded, too populated,

Don't worry, latest patch is fixing that problem real quick.

get out of highsec

Subs aren't paid on a daily basis, y'know. I've still got plenty of time to spew venom at this patch before my sub runs out.

...and that is what im trying to convey. A random system could be generated when the jump-ship activates. Explore it and mine its "randomly-generated" resources and leave...never able to return to the same system again. Or perhaps encounter an alien race to trade or combat with...who knows? There are quite a few possible scenarios that could be used...lol

I dont really consider Wormholes to be viable systems. And they too, have all been explored. I have found MANY, and all contain POS stations...tho some are, in fact, inactive. The problem with them is the uncertainty of where the exits will appear. Too intangible to be considered actual systems.

Sure, with more than 2k solar systems I can't help but feel crowded.

And yes...I'm being sarcastic.

- Remove your competition. It is getting to crowded maybe it's time you did something. If YOU can't why not approach someone who can or pay someone else who will. In other words when things get crowded in eve, ships gotta blow. If you don't make them blow, someone else will. And if you are in a region of space where that is basically impossible to do (clearing out sinq liason) then obviously "subtle control" of that space is left for those with more free time and connections and it's not worth your time and isk. Now unless you'r willing to invest time to actually control the environment you'r playing in to better favor your/corp's playing style you can't realy point it out as a flaw and hope someone else fixes it.

- Leave high-sec. Like really leave high-sec. Don't just jump 3 systems away,day-trip once in a while and call it I left high-sec. Does it really come as a suprise that you feel constantly hunted when you "pass-through" in those occasions?

I dont know dude. Im hisec dweller as well, but when i go ninja ratting to null, 90% of systems i visit are empty.

Have you considered that you simply don't have his incredibly magnetic charisma and good looks?

Leave highsec.

No, thanks. Yesterday I've checked a way to certain null system I'm interesting in - there were 45 (!) people camping gates in the system from high to null.

P.S. I wWas in WH space for year - it was my most empty year in EVE because I spent half of time on scanning and transporting staff.

the main problem is that there aren't incentives to go to null except if you belong to an alliance, most people say "get out og high sec" but the reality is, i could do it, but where i can i settle?, 90% of null es owned by an Alliance, and neutrals find it too hard to move throught it, also going throught low sec gets complicated, and even more when going to NPC null.

this from the perspective which had its original account in innsmother.

null sounds nice in paper, but in practice players have ****** it up. i was expecting to find some sort of independent regiones with their own trading hubs, security and community.

but you come and find people ratting and doing PvP, always paranoic with their intel and local, in every case there's only one trade hub, which doesnt even have all the resources (even taking in account all the resources avaliable in form of asteroids, moons and planets).

the only interesting to happen is that another alliance invades your space and you have to help defending it, but which is the reward?, having an station where to dock and a POS. i dunno if this happens in all the corps/alliances in game.

but null doesnt live to what i was expecting.

Can I have your stuff?

I think the solution is simple: add more solar systems.

I was thinking of a way to expand the realms of Eve the other day. It involved some device that keeps a worm hole open.
( A little off topic but.. )

A Worm Hole Anchor Station.
This device has to be anchored next to the WH (it costs a lot BTW) It also needs a partner on the other side.
This pair of devices would stop the WH collapsing thus opening up other realms.
It would depending on it's viability with the DEV's only allow one or maybe two WH's to be anchored in a system.
The issue would then be about are they pop-able? Yes I say. But not like a POS with reinforcement etc.
To pop it it needs a massive alpha strike & I do mean massive to avoid the ensuing destruction annihilating everything (ship wise) within a certain distance, pods & all. It won't accept slow or low DPS attacks whittling it down due to energy gained for shield generation from the WH.

It can't be popped slowly by a 20 man BS fleet kind of thing, 2 Titans at least & some BS.
This would avoid easy griefing of the anchor. It'd still take a while to pop & give warning to the owners about its precarious status. If some one on the otherside of the WH can access the 'WH Anchor' then they can cause problems with the attackers.
Maybe adjusting the grav field to mess with the attackers targeting/fall off etc. This is not a one click button but involve accessing the system map & viewing the other system through a link the attacked Anchor supplies to adjust the gravity fields around the attackers. This is done with the WH Anchor station on the other side.
This could if done right slow them down no end. :)

Now these devices are banned in High Sec. Concord security reasons etc.
Random WH's will still appear in systems containing said device ( WH Anchor Station )

I think this would make things more interesting. In that - with the effects that WH space can imbue you ship with & the Possible returns from Sleepers etc Capsuleers will be more inclined to fight with big stuff if the WH is open no matter what goes through it & how often.

it is because they are a logistical nightmare that large corps and alliances can't/don't claim them or claim them for very long.
