Julien Marius Amarr	Posted - 2009.04.05 15:39:00 - [1051] I think that the problem of replacing the old POSs with the new ones is being made into too much of an issue, the old ones don't all need to disappear immediately. Allow these new components to be made and assembled in a modular fashion, stop selling the old components, and allow owners of the old POSs to exchange their old modules for the new ones at no cost, then after a month or so discontinue support for the old ones. This idea is far too good to be held up by a problem like that. -Julien -- Support the Dead Horse POS!

Naran Darkmood Gallente Firman AB 101010 Alliance	Posted - 2009.04.07 21:06:00 - [1055] This should have happened immidiately some time after the first time I read this thread (which is mor than a year ago). I agree than the current POS are a mess and look like one as well. For the transition, convert the modules to the new time the next time they are unanchored. About educating, write a dev blog which shows some nice pics and explains less than have the theory, and you are inline with most of your other redisigns...

g0ggalor	Posted - 2009.04.10 02:23:00 - [1059] This is actually how I first envisioned POSes when I first heard of them. You can imagine my disappointment when I first saw how CCP actually implements them. CCP. Please put this system into place. Yes, every existing POS would have to be reconfigured, but it would be better in the long run.

ACE81	Posted - 2009.04.13 20:08:00 - [1064] Awesome Idea altho you dont have to remove the old stations just make this idea tech 2 or 3 with some new skills to learn like tech 3 stratigic cruisers have.
Iveran Amarr Banteki The Council.	Posted - 2009.04.14 05:52:00 - [1065] I've been playing the game a long time... And all the new members that join my corporation, are like "Can we dock at the POS?"... And this is the SAME question from EVERY new member... I believe CCP should realize that when people believe something should be a certain way, they should make an effort to put things that way. /SUPER SIGNED _______

No to Tech 2 or Tech 3 pos's Yes to Tier 2 pos's, makes it much easier to add to the game, none of the current pos's would have to be removed. Bumping the best thread in F&I.

Odhinn Vinlandii The Colour Out of Space Un-Natural Selection	Posted - 2009.04.15 09:57:00 - [1067] Edited by: Odhinn Vinlandii on 15/04/2009 10:02:40 I envision a ship fitting interface for towers, with scripts and rigs. Each race's tower has certain hardpoint ratios for each POS module type. Rigs could be used to change those hardpoints. Scripts could be used to change the ratio of bonuses to modules or the tower. Thus you could just drop all modules into the POS fitting window at once and hit online. The anchoring and onlining timers could still be in effect, but the user could walk away and not waste 12hrs of his life suffering an absurd and archaic UI. Additionaly, each POS module could have slots for rigs, scripts and modules. Why not add a sensor booster to a tower? Why not add a cargo expander to a corp array?

I believe CCP should realize that when people believe something should be a certain way, they should make an effort to put things that way. /SUPER SIGNED totally agree, to be able to actually dock at your POS would be win beyond compare. Instead of just storing your ship at the ship maintenance bay you'd actually dock and get a station view. Then of course there should be a certain limit to to size of all ships docked just like the current ship bay. Various options in your POS station view should depend on what other structures are connected to the POS.

Esiel Caldari	Posted - 2009.04.20 23:10:00 - [1073] I would love to walk in my own personal station -- POS -- that is what they are suposed to be... CCP should make it a station, moduralize it and allow 1 ship to dock at the pos, let more be able to dock if you have the maintenace bay or maybe something else if ccp wants. You can do it CCP, we know you can, you just have to believe in yourself and darn it people like you too. * Beat the dead horse

Similar in concept to those earlier in the thread, what I'm calling for is a mere option to reduce the number of modules that need to be deployed with a POS. The first of these new modules would be a Station Core. This would anchor directly to the control tower, or atleast look like it. This rather large disc shaped module would form the central building block of the new station types. (Please keep in kind that these diagrams were done up to be as simple as possible. Not trying to win an art contest here.) /I hyperlinked his images/ http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h293/Defender_16/EvEPOSstationCore.gif The Core module would come pre-built with Corp hanger space large enough for an average Industrial to dock. Once the Core is deployed the station manager can simply dock and add some of the smaller station modules currently available. The Core would be restricted in the types of modules it can equip, mainly being used for additional hanger space. Once a Core Module is set up propery larger Hemisphere Blocks can be added. The current plan is to be able to anchor both a North and South hemisphere. These would have options to equip a full range of the current modules. The equipped modules can not be seperately targeted but perhaps they could appear to be equipped to the Outer hull? Similar to Turret modules on ships. /I hyperlinked his images/ http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h293/Defender_16/EvEPOSstationHemispheres.gif The last of these ideas are the proposed Capital Ship Docking Ring. The discussion of which seemed to make some good progress. /I hyperlinked his images/ http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h293/Defender_16/EvEPOSstationDockingRing.gif With this station type there would no longer be a POS bubble shield, just those the station has. Weapons and support arrays could still be anchored in space around the station as before. THIS. If this could be implemented so the result looks somewhat like this everyone would be happy. The basis is already in place with the intro of T3, can't be that much of a step forward.

Zaiyo Modi Minmatar Republic University	Posted - 2009.04.21 22:10:00 - [1077] Edited by: Zaiyo Modi on 21/04/2009 22:10:42 Aestheticly, if ccp decide to keep a shield-like field for a new POS design, I suggest modeling something on the POS that relates to the shield projection, maybe a dish of sorts with a gfx effect. Also some startup animation would look cool perhaps, where you see the shield power up majestically.
