So, Basically the tittle says it all for me.
I know that CCP has known that no one is really happy with the current Sov System in Null.
I know that there are other parts to the game aside from null. And I do enjoy/like the current additions and fixes they've done to null as a whole. However;
Wouldn't it have been a more sound idea to fix Sov FIRST? Instead of doing these other things? I mean Sov is why we live in null really. Now more than ever its evident the system isn't a good one. NO ONE wants fight for Sov, It's boring, tedious and favors the defender enough that they can just make the game unbearable.
Just a curious question is all, I'd love to hear what CCP says. Not raging or ranting, Just wanting to know the reasoning behind why and if/when it will be fixed.

Well the main problem is that the new sov system should obviously benefit and suit proper EVE players like me who play the game correctly, and penalise bad EVE players like that other guy who plays the game wrong.[/quote]
I'm assuming this is some sort of joke or troll? As there is no "wrong" or "right" way to play eve. |

There is no universal consensus on what the new system should look like, other than some rather vague top level goals, and there's certainly no consensus on how to promote those goals.
And the reason for that is that there isn't a universal nullsec demographic that is even capable of producing that consensus; the desires of people who want to promote small gang raiding are directly opposed to those who want to promote large scale mining as a routine 0.0 activity, for instance.
So the tl;dr is: CCP are well aware that the current sov system is worse than a bag of dicks for dinner, but that there's no obvious system to replace it.
In the past, CCP have been looking for such a system on the basis that as sov is something that can only be looked at once every 5 years or so*, they need to have a system that will last 5 years or so before committing to the work. In short, there's no sense in committing a 6 month development cycle to a new system unless they're sure it will improve the game, not when there are many other gameplay mechanics equally deserving of attention. I was going to ramble on at the OP saying that they haven't defined the problem so how do they expect a solution but you said it better :)
The OP isn't looking to fix or for a fix. He was just looking for the publics opinion. As I don't stalk forums a whole lot anymore.
You're right though, He did say it fairly well. |
