I vote Brain Slug invasion.
You can use all the same ships and avatars..just have to put a little green slug on their heads.
Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings? |

CCP quite clearly said that the human story is interesting enough and that EVE has no need of aliens.
Don't see that changing any time soon, bub. |

Well said.
An alien invasion creates an artificial US against THEM situation. EVEs whole point is that human nature is US against US.
Beyond that, did anyone really think the EVE wormhole just collapsed on its own? A superioir alien race discovered the Milk Way and recocognized humanity for the dsease that it is and eradicated it. The EVE gate collapse was a fortunate side effect for the residents of New Eden. At some point (hopefully far IRL future) CCP wil need to shut own EVE, on that day the gate will reopen and every player will effectively be CONCORDED by the aliens in one last firefest with no clone ressurection.
CCP does not make it very clear to new players what EVE is about.

EVE needs pink glittery unicorns propelled by rainbows out their &$#
Though I'd be attentive towards the introduction of reavers (yes firefly ripoff) type of invasion. Some secret science experiment gone awry, transforming ordinary people into mindless homicidal maniacs that bath in the blood of their victims as they eat their faces.

You do know that this is one of the most important techniques that us forum warriors use to project our cause right?

I'd go with eventually CCP hacking into Star Citizen and we invade their universe and take their stuffs. We then become the aliens.

They would be perfect for Eve. That said, be already have a faction in Eve that are super religious wack-jobs that have access to military-grade munitions. |

Not so sure about a bunch of honor obsessed communists (yes, for them everything belong to the clan, like a 100% corp tax rate) being perfect for the EVE setting.
Perhaps that would make them somewhat "alien", in their outlook, but not inhuman.
And we already have our freaks with the jovians, which even the influence web in New Eden has never been really explored.
But most of the potential of the setting has been left untapped by CCP, supposedly to not disturb the "sandbox", as if the game would be less sandboxy if the universe was richer.
These guys really have no idea of what a fruitful PvE is... |

Once upon a time it seemed like EvE was heading to a big showdown with the Jovians. For some reason that fell off the map.
Unless your thread is limited to how 'awesum!' Eve Online is, ISD will lock the thread.-á You will find it is particularly common if CCP might have to make a public response to the thread subject, as opposed to bury it in the GM que for the forseeable future and then prohibit telling anyone what the GM said, if it's ever answered at all. |

That was never, at any point, foreshadowed.
With the exception of Amarr's failed invasion, the Jove have never fought against any of the empires and have gone out of their way to create CONCORD and help them.
Do you know why the Jove exist in EVE Lore?
It's to keep you asking questions like this. |

I would like ancient Talocan invasion on the unsuspecting Gallenteans. Imagine ancient ships emerging from the black monoliths and seizing all gallentean property, enslaving whole race with weapons that cause mental subjugation.

Everything is static on EVE, even the supposedly dynamic stuff. What you are asking is what I expected from incursions, random, can happen everywhere and progressive attacks. Which at some point people will need to respond too, incursions just turned out to be another form of missions.
I often proposed simple changes to make even the 5+ year old repetitive mission more entertaining and dynamic....never happened. No adaptive behavior, like changing ammo and/or range, no random (even if just out of a small set of templates) versions of missions that have different optimal tactics.
Anyways, I hope they eliminate everything that screams grind. That means passive standings, repetitive missions, lack of wonder in just about everything. Wonder was what got me into eve, it was big, new, tons of things to explore, deadly and harsh at every stage.
If they ever going to do real invasions, what the OP suggests, is what i want, all out war where everyone is needed to fight or to supply for the fight. Surely the aliens cannot win, that would be end of game, unless CCP thinks of something really masterful. But either way, the invasion should have pervasive effects that players WANT to fight. Add discoveries about their origen over time, not in terms of events or CCP news, but things that players can discover in wormholes etc. Slowly over the course of a year or more generate a picture and better means to fight the invaders. It would be brilliant! |
