 I think CCP should not allow player built Battleships in Empire space. All they are being used for it to strip mine asteroid belts and making it slim-pickings for those of us without them.
You can't really shoot anyone in Empire space anyways.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?

An indirect side effect of such a decision would mean no more super highway systems.

No more corporations in empire space! They are far too organized and just aren't nice to freelancers!

If you don't like it go somewhere else. Or complain to CCP about the roid respawn bug, because that's the real root of this problem, not the battleships mining. --------------- I used to be in the FA. I like cookies. Eve Radio is teh pwn. |

I kind of agree with you here, but it will never and cannot be changed without ruining the game. ELITE players, (people who have been playing a while, know a bit about combat can make a good few mil a day from mining) mine and mine and mine in empire space and the newbies get the left overs..
Thats why I mine in 0.7 downwards ; )

Removing BS's from empire space is not an option imo. But it would be better if the mega-miners would stop strip mining the 1.0 systems. They should be able to mine in .6-.8 systems. Usually there arent many rookie ships minig in those systems. Leave the rookie systems to the rookies.

Edited by: SISQO on 13/09/2003 23:21:26 ...might I add we should also remove anyone with more then 1,000 skill points from entering any space above 0.5. And nerf all guns to do 5 damage, and boost all ships to 10k hp. That way no one ever dies and there is minerals for all. Really my solution works.
/sarcasm
Removing battleships from empire space is not the solution, also empire space includes some 0.0 if you didn't know. I have NEVER, EVER had a problem with people in battleships stripmining belts, there are hundreds, upon hundreds of 1.0 systems, and another few hundred 0.9 systems. There is no shortage of asteroids to mine, try jumping to the neighboring system with a device called a stargate, you'll see alot of belts.

Some other ideas...
* Battleships should only require 1 piece of tritanium to build.
* All players should be given a BP for Tech 5 miners.
* Outside each station there should be a huge roid containing at least 10 million units of Arkonor. This roid should also respawn every 10 minutes.
* Each station should have a huge demand AND supply of Robotics. Stations should sell Robotics for 2 isk and buy for 2 milion isk.
* All weapons should do 1 point of damage and have 60 seconds ROF.
And most important of all: * All players who has ever visited 0.0 space are obviously pirates, so CCP should ban them immediately.

Jeeze... all of empire space? So basically you'd be locked down in one 0,0 region, since to get to the other regions you need to cross empire space... bad idea.
But the spirit of the suggestion is good.

You guys have it all wrong.
What we NEED to do is not allow people to undock from stations. Because anything in space causes lag, and where there is lag you will certainly hear some poor loser screaming "exploit!"
We also need massive censoring on these forums, because any word that is longer than six letters should be considered too difficult to read, thus an exploit.
There must also be a cap on number of people logged into the gameserver, set to five. Anything else and there is too much lag while sitting in your station you cannot spam the trade channel properly, which is an exploit.
CCP should mount a crusade against motorized vehicles in general, to stop people from going to a store and buying this game and getting onto the server, because the more people sign up for the game, the more exploits there will be.

Won't need this one. If the stupidity continues at this pace or accelerates, people will simply leave.
NOBODY wants to play a mining simulator with the level of interactivity Eve's mining mechanics offers. I've seen text-based oil drilling simulators hold attention longer.

All very good suggestions so far guys, but I have the "final solution" here.
Ban anyone using anything but a shuttle in space, that way there will always be asteroids to mine.
