But a DEV from CCP answered the question why they don't change the POS system.

I quote a DEV from my memory:

" No Dev want to touch the large Tower code. "

So basically they have to rewrite a large and challenging part of the code, and lets face it the AGILE , here looks some devblogs in the past, fit not in CCP workflow, bring every bit in small pieces....

We don't want them to touch the POS("pieces of crap randomly strewn about") code.

We want entirely new code made, you know the coding they showed off to create the customizable, linkable, sexy T3 cruisers*.
Each of the OP's modules click together in a unique customization, and have/produce different stats...it's now a reality to deploy a POS like this in the EVE system.**

That's the same train of thought...how much lag does a T3 cruiser cause when rendered/prerendered?

I doubt we care about the implementation problems. Fly/anchor what you can afford to lose.*** CCP can lock Sov, give everyone a week or two to turn them in for points/Kredits, and reimburse with new modules.4*

Also, make sure the new modules can stack vertically, a real lack of vertical ships/objects in EVE.
And when are POS fuel pellets coming?

"A man's home, is his castle."- a wise guy.

*Get those guys to do it.
**If I get banned, you know who did it.
***Really? I had to say it.
4* Done before.

There are several things in EVE that appear to be in place to purposely frustrate, annoy, and waste players time.
Nothing does all three of these better than a POS.
Frustrating and annoying are one thing, but the giant waste of time that POS's induce is a big fat "F".
Getting stuck between arrays, having to move things from one hanger to another...that seems to always be out of range. Abnoxious fueling mechanics, inability to name hangers and other structures to reference them, broken capacity indicators, inability to refit Tech III ships, and inability to segregate peoples items more readily, and ammo disappearing from guns... all suck.

This proposal would go a long way to making living out in the wilds a bit more palatable.

For those of us who have to live out of our POSs -- disappointing is an understatement

Amen
