As a capital pilot. I do have to say, i am flat out not happy that there are regions of null sec that you just FLAT cannot get to from low sec. Travel for the solo capital pilot is about to become a non reality with out much much greater increases in risk.
Are High sec gates going to be allowed for use by capitals in a travel sense only??? Aka if a carrier enters high sec.... it cannot use capital high slots, Cannot launch fighters, and or more than 5 drones flat out (probably better to cause bandwidth to drop to 125 or 100 also), to keep it in balance with other HS ships.
At this point as a long term eve player, knowing high sec, low sec, and null.....I fail to see any further reason why capitals are not allowed in high sec that would not be fixed by the above changes. Carriers and the like would become no more powerful than an orca!! |

Carriers and the like would become no more powerful than an orca!! That has been answered several times earlier in the thread with a very clear : NO
Really? Last dev reply i saw and searched for said the topic was going to be revised not a no, but also not a yes. Just a nebulous ask later statement.
If it is going to be a no from them, then what is the reasoning. Or if its a yes, what is the plan. I see no reason delaying the questions asked till a later date any further. |

I see no reason delaying the questions asked till a later date any further. check this - the question asked by Vincent Athena and the answer from Greyscale is just one of the latest for that Mechanics is : your destination is a high sec system - stay the f... out of it with your capital. Not going to be changed. Fullstop
That is explaining a current mechanic not being addressed in this update. if you actually search a bit more, you will see that the last answer about if its going to be changed or not in ccp's plan for capital movement, is they want to revisit that at a later discussion. Id link it but.... Search a bit more and you'll find it.
My questions i originally asked are directed at CCP devs. Not players :-)

My opinion... you're looking for a way to safely move capitals and assets in those capitals around eve without the risk of losing them. I don't think that's the direction they are taking the game.
No. Im looking to keep the risk to capitals balanced. The current changes make it very dangerous for a solo player to move.
even in fleets its going to be exponentially more dangerous. This being as now whole regions are out of range of any npc system or route. Leaving the only route being THROUGH player controlled space. This will effectively put a HUGE hamper on any new cap pilot getting to a destination region how ever long it takes. I agree with keeping the time reduced to what ccp is aiming for. Not the cutting off of entire regions leaving access to them controlled through player regions... Aka if you want to get to stain. All some one has to do to control stain is lock down the surrounding regions. This will be abused in its current fashion TRUST ME. Why do you think the big blocks are actively making capital caches?
SO. No im not loing for a way to safely move them. Im looking for a WAY to move them period as a solo player to all regions. Inline with ccp trying to make it easier for people to play in null.
So ill ask this question of the CCP dev's, How do you envision the solo capital pilot being able to move around. Say from low sec to stain?? or low sec to ore space. |

It will have no effect on coalitions other than it will change some tactics. It will however effect small alliances. If you dont have the manpower to move your goods/ defend your space 24/7 then you dont get to stay in null. Go join a large alliance.
I believe this is what CCP is going for.
If this is not the vision of CCP, please could someone tell me what they are shooting for?
Could not agree more, Right inline with my question to the Dev's.
Problem gets compounded even worse for the player moving around solo... |

There is not risk to capital movement... It's not balanced..... It's being corrected...... you don't like that...... we hear you..... we just don't agree with you..... you're starting to come off as a whiner..... risk free cap movement all across eve is over....... OVER What you call abuse.... I call justice. We'll need to agree to disagree on that. It's time to expect to occaisionally lose a ship. 
And is typical of players like you, resorting to name calling.
If you cant see what i am asking the dev's or the logic behind it. Then you are part of the problem :-)
My question to the dev's stands.
