EvE's now is far behind the "schedule" that players would like to see, nothing awe inspiring got made past Apochrypha.

As demonstrated by the averted war between the CFC and the HBC, two coalitions who have been itching to shoot at each other for months, sov mechanics need to be fixed. Now. We're utterly fed up with dealing with timers and structure bashes and space that people don't care enough about to defend. We want battles, exploding ships, and goodfights, but these are becoming increasingly rare as more people get tired of the current sov mechanics.

So please, CCP, focus the summer expansion on sovereignty mechanics. I know it's a big project, but it needs to be done more than anything else and it needs to happen sooner rather than later.

What needs to happen is people like you and your allies need to stop listening to someone that just holds moons in NPC space and grow a pair and acutally fight.

This BS about sov is broke and dont want to grind HP is bullshit. CFC/HBC have done it before and recently. What has changed since then?

NOTHING.

What happens if CCP comes up empty and its left to players how to fix things? Is waiting for CCP to act a good idea?

People already are trying to cope with the abundance of NIPs. NIPs are literally made because people want to shoot each other without having to engage in full war (they were first conceived because tech was hilariously cartelable and broken, but with alchemy OTEC is only a name for a group of NIPs these days). Some people may claim that this specific theoreticaly HBC/CFC sov war never would have happened, but I think anyone with a moderate amount of knowledge of nullsec politics will agree that there have been several NIPs in other situations between entities where there was enough animosity for a war but ultimately people sick of structure grinding elected not to do something they hate for space that isn't worth taking.

Ultimately we're going to do what we can to amuse ourself, whether that means ganking freighters in hisec or engaging in wargames now that the HBC and CFC are neutral to each other. But if CCP wants to bring Null back to its original ideal of unrestricted empire warfare, sov needs to be improved on many levels.

I can totally understand not wanting to shoot your buddies. So, then, declare war on empire. Burn Jita seemed to go pretty well. You hate us and we hate you. (I guess.) Make it permanent.

As soon as you guys stop playing in decfree corps.

We do leave nullsec, for example I have all of my isk making alts in highsec and only log on for essential tasks/fleets. I'm on my highsec awoxing alt more than I am on my main.

Ladies first.

You can't awox in an NPC corp.

Ladies first.

I'll stop exploiting it when you do.

You know things are broken when the two biggest nullsec entities don't start the biggest war in the history of eve because of how utterly boring they know it will be.

I'll stop exploiting it when you do.

This is why I'd like to rate Apocrypha as the worst EVE expansion ever. It did so much to raise player expectations about how much CCP could achieve in so little time, that anything else CCP does short of releasing an expansion bigger and bolder than Apocrypha will be ridiculed as "a few timers" or "a graphics update".

Even if it was the case that GSF High Command hadn't given us you as a priority target for non-consensual forums PVP, your ideas are horrible and you never want to support us anyway :smith: because if we agree with it clearly GSFHC has an agenda.

Bored and fed up Nullsec players derping Highsec may just be the kick up the bum CCP needs to sort out Null, and Low for that matter.

I'd defenestrate you for using "incentivize" too!
