One thing id like to know is: what is the 'dungeon' system, is that like deadspace, or the hybrid type one thats used in right hand of zazzmatazz (ie can still choose warp in point).
I actually quite like the latter, and old DS does get a bit annoying.
It also gets one extra acceleration gate out of the way which is nice aswell

The Zazzmatazz mission and the deadspace missions use both the dungeon system.
If you think of it as an instancing system you are pretty close to the reality.
ccp hired AO devs to get started.
I guess the tactical environments will use it too, but that's something the future has to show.

hey hey
the zazz mission and that kind of hybrid mission was a bit sucky as you cannot choose the warp in point but most people worked around by using the ol BM trick which to me defeated the object of having a specific jip.
zrakor - i been "testing" on singularity gallente cosmos and done a fantastic mission which asked me to warp in = kill the serps- then mine their omber and bring 2k omber to the agent. If the omber rock they were guarding was more of a mission item say like Red Omber (non refinable) and came out like the 'specific' reports that would be very very cool. it posed a small logistical challenge and was different enough keep me up there. that kind of CCP creativity is where missions should be at. You could put an agent in space INSIDE them mission with a hauller you drop the ore to even . . .
Warp in, shoot, warp out has gotten a little old, repetativeness and mission farming has too. The 1 shot only missions from COMOS agents could easily be transfered over to normal agents smae as angel strike 10parter - great story nice mix of missions and ok rewards for the lucky ones. Keep up the good work i cant wait to hit missions again . .. .

 Originally by: Zrakor
There are actually features being implemented that will affect missions, they will just do so through the npc spawning system. It's what we call the 'trigger' system. It's going to play a large role in how mission encounters and complexes are set up in the future.
And if you visit the 0.0 COSMOS constellations, you will find that some of the missions there are pretty much what you would expect in level 5s probably.
Be careful... If you just make them bigger than level 4s, people WILL solo them. Trust me on this, people will find a way to solo them. They said level 4s couldn't be solod but they can. They said 10/10 complexes couldn't be solo'd but they can. Not just htat but if the payout per person is greater than level 4s, people will farm them rather than moving to low sec or 0.0. I would very much appreciate if they were made resticted to 0.4 or under. Making 0.0-level isk in 1.0 is just... wrong.
If the NPCs spawned are spawned specifically for each ship and limited to attacking that ship and they warp out when the ship warps out or is destroyed, that would work. Otherwise, I'll just have some alts in frigs come in to raise the spawn count, then have them warp out and kill them all solo.
If the trigger system is managed properly with area triggers and timers and such, it's going to be awesome. I just don't want to see level 5 missions or high end complexes turn into high end versions of what we currently have in high sec.

0.0 COSMOS and the new mini professions will get majorly farmed
the plexes will be in an alliance space or via one or will get claimed. All the top level items from any arch/hac will be in them as well; as all the hard to find new build items and ores
I'd love the challenge of new mini professions and even would be prepared to fly a small "archaeology" ship class directly into 0.0 but i'd probably have to pass many camps or when i got to the plex. kablam ! 0.0 plex's & every thing else high end ingame is for the alliances and pirates only.

More toys to the 0.0 people!
To Jita with those not willing or able to join being bossed around and exploited by the alliance leaders!
