The NPCs do not spawn until the timer expires so yes, I don't see why you couldn't :)

Secondly, consider making looting one of the containers in these sites a Crimewatch yellow card offense. This will drive real conflict in highsec and make these sites play very, very differently to anything else in empire.

Absolutely - this could be a first step to making highsec a little more interesting.

Where did you get this information? Link please.

If it's true, then these implants probably won't be used by the majority of the playerbase.

Yes, just the on-board scanner

Not for this release but we still have plans to iterate on this as soon as we can.

Are you kidding? I thought you meant this as a joke to start off with but you're seriously just adding it in as an anomaly aren't you?

I read your comment about having it easily accessible to all players and ever since the latest scanning changes I've felt that the months training my scanning skills have been wasted since it's so easy to scan signatures now.. no reward for those that have refined their scanning skills to scan down the hard sites.

So what you're saying.. on top of the above, you're just going to throw these new rare sites out there for people to see as soon as they jump in to a system? Instead of rewarding the players that actually spend time scanning and playing their game regularly? What a slap to the face this is.

Yep... thanks for this. I'm looking forward to getting home tonight and NOT playing EVE. Which is becoming a more common occurrence for me as of late.

I would like to know which module type will be required for the hacking in the sites. Will it be the data or relic analyzer? Or maybe both? Will cans explode when you fail twice aswell like it is now?

Nonsense. Make them anomalies, apply a suspect flag when looting containers, watch the Mexican standoffs. Why should high value loot be risk free? This is the start of a new market (player-made implants) and it should be done right.

I don't smoke. It's bad for you. And what do you mean "there are already sites that do thid". I wasn't aware of any sites that give you a suspect flag when you hack them.

I am more interested in opportunities for player interactions

Site ninjas? I mean for the person who actually hacks the thing. You know, the one who gets the isk and should therefore have the risk.

I really like this idea :)

Actually it will not drive conflict in high sec. It will just be content that gets ignored by the vast majority of high sec players. To see this CCP Affinity, ask someone to look up how many expeditions that start in high sec but go to low sec are actually completed.

What on earth are you SMOKING?!?! There is this already for Kspace combat sites that get this... have to be scanned down.

These super rare awesome etc etc sites however, can just be found and warped to by all the noobies thus making any veteran and his alt miss out.

Why doesn't CCP have any loyalty for the players that have stuck with the game all these years and spent time training for all the modules/ships/abilities that have been destroyed in all the rebalancing?? They just want all this alluring new content smacking all the potential young payers in the face when they undock from their station.

You might as well just remove probes altogether and add a new scanning module that you activate and it slowly but surely scans down all the wormholes, in the mean time have an auto site find & run button for all the noobs to press which takes them to a site and automatically runs it for them.

Amazin'

There is no new content in Eve for a long time

And for those that wish to take advantage of this all they have to do is warp in after the site spawns, cloak up, wait for player x to come in and open a can, uncloak, gank expensive ship. The rage will be amazing.

If CCP don't make these sites sigs, I hope they do the above game breaking mechanic for bears everywhere.

What is an expedition in this context?

I think it would get used. The lure of the loot would be too great. Such sites would get people used to aggression and weapons timers, getting their pods to safety - the basics required for being comfortable with low in the relative safety of high.

Affinity has said the loot needed to build the implants will be spread around different sec space with the best blueprint dropping in WH - so its premature to get worked up that a noob finding one of these rare anoms in highsec is going to out-win EVE, compared to older characters who will be finding the best stuff in null and WH, just like they always do.

The sites do not have scattering - they are lootable containers after they are hacked. Hacking and scattering are two different mechanics :)
