One of the best ideas I have heard in a long time!
Many +1's
And as for the devs responding, either they are working in secret and we will hear of Dinsdales idea at fanfest, or well...they just have not responded. Which is a pure shame. This idea is unbelievably fresh!
Good job Dinsdale!

Space tornadoes have been spotted before in eve - check out 3:15 in this video from 2009 (I think the actual video is even older than this by several years).

True, I have heard of the effect before. But the latest video was from March of this year on SiSi...just leads me to believe that there may be a possibility, if ever remote, they may be working on something like this idea. It would be rather refreshing and something you could actually call a feature in the "expansion".
If anything I find it a good idea to keep this thread alive and kicking in the hopes we could get a Dev opinion on it soon(TM).

I am wondering why no comment from a dev yet? It would be nice to know what's possible?

The more time that goes by, the more I think if CCP integrates this into any game, it will be more likely in Valkyrie. I think it would be a better fit. As for dev's posting in this thread, I would not bet on it. One of the CSM's presented it to the dev's, and they said they were aware of it. That was some months ago.

Large areas, thousands of km across, where fleets can hide, or even get lost in.
Put items/sites of value in in them though, where people REALLY have to explore, where you operate by your wits, overview and luck.
Some place that while it is easy to hide in, be it someone with evil or benign intentions, but also makes it very difficult to hunt someone down in the cloud.
I always imagined some kind of area like we saw in the Wrath of Khan, would be a very interesting to spend a few hours, or longer, in. This. Is a god damb Amazing Idea.

If anyone from this thread is going to fanfest I demand that you find the nearest dev and then RUN at him/her - rugby tackle them to the ground then proceed to administer intense psychological warfare, for example by making them watch ten minutes of Britain's Got Talent - or thirty seconds of the 'X-Factor' until they agree to return to the office and make this happen.

Actually, it was.
At least with the 1st post.
I think a 2nd flame post may have been deleted by the poster as well, but my memory is hazy on that.
I think about the 5th post Malcanis stepped up and gave his endorsement and the tide turned, and I went back to the original post and edited to basically a theme, as opposed to deep specifics.
Malcanis and I are polar opposites when it comes to the current state and future of Eve, but I do have to give him props for stepping up and I believe getting other CSM members to endorse it.
It is also nice to see people keep resurrecting the thread, but my cynicism leads me to believe the longer CCP goes without even discussing this openly with the community, the less chance we will ever see it implemented. CCP clearly has a lot of things they have prioritized over this concept, and they only have so many game designers and developers.

I read enough of this to realize this is a bloody brilliant idea. As someone said earlier, this is what exploration should have looked like all along.
Eve tends to be really linear and formulaic. Something like this, with a huge pile of random stuff that could happen, would be an amazing addition.
I have these images in my head:
A week-old noob in a frigate sees this pop up on the screen. After jumping in, he/she has a pants-crapping moment while successfully outmaneuvering and evading a gang of T3s that are out hunting. Then runs into a random structure and pulls out an item worth a small fortune. Then spends an hour trying to get out again while dodging NPCs, players, and a hostile environment. A legend is started.
Or, a four-year-old player in a Command Ship flies around and finds a really nasty area of space with vicious NPCs, huge environmental damage, and a lone jetcan in the middle. He/she fights through and barely survives, opens the can, and finds a piece of scrap metal. The glorious, glorious tears.
Those are the kind of stories I'd want to hear about. |

The least they could do is comment in this thread and say how they feel about it.
It has been up for quite a while with no replies from the devs; maybe that says it all?

Personally what I would love to see if this came about, would be that while you are inside the cloud, local does not work. While you are in system outside the cloud, you can see everyone in local, including the people inside the cloud. This would leave you with the question, are they cloaked somewhere? Are they in the cloud? FML do I go in there looking for them? With the multiple exits / entrances mentioned, it's not like you could 'camp' them inside, they can simply come out a different location and warp away with you completely unaware (except maybe seeing them on D-scan when they come out).
My reasoning for this is that it would encourage PVP'ers to enter the clouds looking for their wartargets / gank targets.
Everything else about this, I love.

As someone who makes all of my money in hi sec, I agree. The only issue that I could see if if someone takes their mission gate and it drops them in this. As long as there was some way to prevent that from happening I would love it. If I want to wander into that mess on my own I should expect people to try to kill me the same as 0.4 and lower.

The whole concept would be the null sec rules.
Imagine wh space, with no dscan, no warp capabilities.
Maybe reduced visual range (100km maybe?).
Micro Jump Drives...maybe.
And a dog's breakfast of "stuff" in them.
Maybe 2/10's, or maybe a C6 capital escalation.
Maybe the richest ore belt you can imagine, or maybe a high sec quality ice belt.
The whole idea would be that the content's of each cloud would be unique, and completely randomized.
No one could game the system.
You might find billions of ISK of stuff, just waiting for an enterprising group to gather in.
Or it might be a trap, with a bunch of nasty players just waiting for someone to fall into their web.

Isn't this what cloaking devices are for? Hiding ships?
But, if you take this idea and spin it:
The location shows as an anomaly on sensors so it can be warped to.
Ships can be detected via probes, but with reduced strength - the interference.
The nebulas cause reduced range and tracking.
Lock times increased
Random chance for roids and gas appropriate for that area. Maybe smaller random chance for some ice in limited quantities. Presence or consumption of which have no effect on the duration of this nebula. Given the sensor disruption, pirates may be present.
