Seed markets with POS like shielded modules. Kinda like the warp bubbles but with more diameter. Allow anchoring only in high and make it so that the fuel costs allot, or that the ''arena'' despawns after a given time. Make it so that all pilots wishing to participate on the duel must be in some kind of range of the ''arena'' click some window to agree to duel and with the terms(say - there are 10 ships eligible to fight - agree? .... or something) for the duel to begin.
There is great potential in this(isk sink, fun). All you arena nay sayers think about it.

[quote=Sura Sadiva]A portable mobile safe area bubble??? Are you serious?
Then why not just some isanced battleground with a queue when one can join and a countdown to start fights. "3, 2, 1... for the horde!"

Because it sounds more real that way. Because there are allot of carebears that would love to blow some of their huge piles of ISK on this but will not otherwise via the low/null route or even high sec wars because of all the blobbing or the high sec shannanigans that the complex system allows. |

Yes its a disgusting term by reading it trough the WOW prism i agree.
But intellectuals must talk peasant from time to time when talking about exotic things as these and their universe lacks such concepts. |

Kinda like have our cake and eat it.
It's just an idea. And don't blame me for putting it out. For all I care CPP starts treads like these on random alts when something like this is on their drawing board but it's not something terribly popular with the subscribers. How else this got 2 blue responses and a sticker.
And again, how are rich EVE wise pilots gonna blow their, for lack of a better word, MASSIVE piles of isk? I know I rather pay 1.5 cost of my ship or even more to enjoy a fair fight without all the blob, disco camps, alts, neutral alts, station games and the 2 hour roam that ends badly. I am bad at pvp and many more are aswell and are also frustrated about all the above **** that cockblocks our urge to screw with our isk.
But don't take me too serious, I will do the same for you. In the end CPP gives a rats ass about my random thoughts or yours cause all they fundamentally care about is selling monthly for cash and loads of PLEX. There is a huge potential for CCP to achieve that trough this arena concept. Anything else CCP says about eve is politics(just like in politics).
And there is room in between CCP's principles and the WOW and such marked for life people principles for everyone else.

It's funny how almost everyone against it hints at the fact they will not be able to pray on the weak and lame. Fact is you will still catch the same amount of PVE ships at gates or trough probing, same amount of industrial ships, nothing is going away if this is introduced, all the PVP that is sought after just by one side will still be there. The ones that roam low/null now will roam after such a feature is introduced just like someone above pointed out happened after RvB and such.
Only thing missing is how it should be delivered. I am certain CCP will not release (if it ever comes to this) something that is as efficient as bounties where pre - Retribution.
- Risk free? hell no - 2 teams of 1 or more pilots each enters means there will be survivors only on one side if any(this is the hardest thing to implement I guess).
- No ranking system - this went out of fashion same time with powdered wigs
- Make the amount of isk required to start such a fixed match substantial enough as to encourage players to look at it mostly as an expensive training ground and make costs grow exponentially in relation to the number of ships involved in the brawl
-Make a betting system so involved parties or outside ones may bet on the outcome(also tax it)
-The loosing part should pay maybe a fee to the KSCO - Keep Space Clean Organization
-Create a wining terms set of rules with many options available(I haven't thought of any beside blow the other guy out of the sky)
-Make people register with Concord for a fee for a "gladiator" (I know I know) license
-Make so that this feature is only available in high and if any module(if any) should be necessary it only comes in a high sec version
- If a pilots corp is in a war either prevent them from participating in such matches or allow the pilots from the opposite side of the war to enter the fighting area and attack their WT's
-Profit...? |
