Well that's the nature of sov space: you can claim it. Why should the owners of sov space possibly want to let a bunch of randoms use their resources?
And much of it is unused and held for little reason other than the fact it can be held cheaply. If it were more difficult to defend borders, many of the large blocks would tighten up their borders and reduce their holdings, creating opportunity for smaller groups and more adventuresome solo activities.
It's already impossible to defend borders. There is literally nothing stopping you from coming and setting up shop in my back yard. How do I know this? This is exactly what my group within Goonswarm does. Seven months ago we were living in The Kalevala Expanse with SCDOT, killing them and carting home bucketfulls of loot. Then we moved to Delve, now we're in fountain. Border control the way you think it exists in null is simply not a thing. If you get caught at a regional gate it's because you didn't plan out your entrance appropriately. Sorry.
Quote:Each gate being a castle keep and the cheap projection of power. These reduce the number of sov holding entities, and reduce the opportunities for small groups. Again, is more people out in null and low a good thing or a bad thing?
Ironically it's the very power projection you whine about that made it easy for us to move into all of these places. You can put a lot of ships in a Carrier.
Quote:It's bad because you want to keep 'randoms' out? To me that reeks of some huge multinational corporation, urging government to create more regulations so that small competitors have a harder time of getting into an industry.
And? I think you miss the point of nullsec.
Quote:What's your motive, promoting more interesting and exciting game play or defending the profits of your null sec constituents, Mr. Politician.
Defending my profits promotes more and interesting gameplay for me. Like it or not the rich kids can afford more interesting toys. On the rare occasion I did get blown up, my alliance threw money at me to make it easier for me to create a new glorious explosion in space. Ultimately I'm here to entertain myself, and my friends. If that entertainment is had at your expense, so be it. |
