1 ) Wars can be used for profit making more efficiently. Demand can be made, and the target also more confident to submit to those demand since it's guaranteed by game mechanics.

War decs should be free to make PvP more accessible to new players. Also, increase NPC corp taxes to 30%. In fact, there should be a way to instantly trigger a war with all non-NPC corps at once. Seeing as war decs should be free, they might as well make it easier by letting you war dec everything with a singe click.

please make it possible to wardec the NPC corps.

As a practical matter you have to preserve highsec for newbies and casual players. Since you now have corps that seem to only exist to declare war against every highsec corp or alliance out there, just because they can, it's really just an exploit to bypass Concord. The casual player has to decide whether they give up gameplay time, give up their corp, or risk being robbed for playing the game. The actual war beyond the mechanic is meaningless. I think that's why some of the more aggressive corps have been declaring wars saying all the proceeds are going to PLEX for GOOD, "because everyone has to do their part" whether they want to do so voluntarily or not I guess. Of course, you don't buy a flotilla of Legions by giving away all your loot, but I'm sure that's just part of the operating costs for running their "charity."

To be honest I am a carebear at heart myself :D

Oh, please make it possible to wardec the NPC corps as well.

also allow the target more option to get out of one ( e.g I think now it's possible to keep the war going on and on even though there is no actual battle ).

No, I think this is a really bad idea. I think it should be a lot harder to get out of one. After all, it's costing players money to go to war and a defender can just get out of it by leaving their corp. That's really imbalanced, they should either have to pay the cost of the war dec to be allowed to leave a corp or war decs should be made free.

what exactly were you fighting over/for again?

PvP.

What we need is better access to non-consensual PvP in high sec.

Hm, I think I prefer the idea of free wardecs. Maybe not the ability to wardec everyone at once for free, but maybe one free active wardec and then a payment for every wardec above that number.

Sure, why not. But then allow any corp to cancel one active wardec for free as well. Check and balance

Hi all,

Firstly, I am quite new to the game, so if I am mistaken please do correct me. Don't burn me in flames.

Ok, back to the topic. From what I read, currently the war mechanics in Eve is quite shallow. If anything, war dec is just basically 'turning off Concorde relatialiation', and 'keeping track of stats of how much ISK damage done'

There is no real in-game mechanics as of how the war suppose to end, and while corp diplomats might be able to negotiate on how to end the wars there is no way to enforce them. And the war also seems to drag un-needlessly to 1 week cycle even though both side agreed to end it.

My suggestions is hopefully for CCP to revamp and expand the war declaration mechanics more, so that certain conditions can be set as to end the wars when it is met. Example of conditions is war target pay certain amount to the aggressor, or suffer certain amount of ISK damage.

There are much advantages to having these mechanics :-

1 ) Wars can be used for profit making more efficiently. Demand can be made, and the target also more confident to submit to those demand since it's guaranteed by game mechanics.

2 ) War now tend to drag on and on without much meaning. Now wars can be waged more often with more purpose.

3 ) Wars is legal by empire laws. More wars means more conflicts in high-sec! . Oh, please make it possible to wardec the NPC corps as well.


What do you guys think ? Appreciate your thought on this.
And sorry my bad English, not my first language

???????????

cat herding, trying to control the uncontrollable.

tell me how you make players undock, do you say things about their mother in local?

What would be the point? They'd just activate the war dec again. There's no sense in that.

Maybe you should read it again.

This will be pointless though since both target and aggressor can keep deccing and running for free. Thus why I think any wardec should have associated cost.

can we get something to clean up corp histories when i have to jump corp every 23hrs due to free wardecs?

thanks.

But the target can already run for free.

This, everyone claiming that high sec needs more pvp is insane, go play in low, null or wh space. all you want is easy acess to high value targets, let's call a spade a spade here.

And what's wrong with that?

There is no fight in ganking miners or officer fit battleships that are mission running, REAL pvp you actually stand to lose something, against opponents of equal or greater strength. But then, i wouldnt expect someone from CODE. to understand that, there is no honor or thrill in "rofl look at my padded kb stats"

Suck it up, you sound butthurt.

I agree with 30% tax for NPC corp. Other than that wardecs are fine and working fine imho.

The vast majority of corps you claim start wars "just because they can" are doing it for one of the following reasons :

Gùï It's fun to hunt and shoot things, yes even in hisec. Occasionally just so the newbies can practice on you.
Gùï They think they might get some ISK out of it.
Gùï Someone or something about your corp irritated them somehow, you just don't know what.

All of these are legitimate reasons to dec a corp, if it seems somehow unfair to you it's likely because you don't have the minerals to defend yourself.

Wars make me ISK.

Either from those that hire me or those that pay to go away.

I don't think that is shallow. It is doing exactly what I need it to do.... Make me ISK.

On another note you are 3 days old and have never been in a corp. So either your an alt and therefore irrelevant or you are 3 days old and prolly need to experience the cries in wars for yourself before suggesting changes on something you have never been a part of.

On another note... Wars can already be ended by offering a surrender fee, either from the attacking force who bit off more then they can chew or from the victims who would rather pay then loose more ships and corp members.
