My first post : here details who i am and what i do, as well as an introduction to a few things to stand for.
this post is more in depth, comprehensive list of just a handful of the issues i feel worth campaigning for to make the game better
So... my manifesto list of stuff that needs to be fixed (or that people think needs to be fixed).. After attending #Eve_NT (SPECTACULAR event btw, if you are in the UK , Nashh Kadavr see his blog here) is doing an event PLEASE come along it was great (next one i think is in august and was a right laugh)). i had a chance to speak with some real life people (they do exist outside of eve) and with that in mind chat about some CSMy type stuff.. so i now have a better, more comprehensive list of stuff to campaign for.
this is in no particular order (except the new player thing thats TOP TOP TOP of my list of things that needs to be sorted)
Offgrid boosting for combat boosts reduction and or sorting (ie no off grid boosting.. the command ship should be in the battle or at least give reduced off grid boosts if it is done with impunity)- we have all been there.. small gang rocks through, the first scout, then a cloaky nullified, stabbed loki with full halo set and oversized AB or MWD... making it unscannable and/or uncatchable if you do manage to scan it down.. and giving that group of interceptors 50-100% boosts depending on how its set up.. I think this has been on the Developement timetable for some time as Fozzie and some others hate the idea of offgrid boosting (why have immunity for your boosts???)
Ishtar rebalance this is a difficult one, as mentioned above, but it does need to be looked at seriously as aside from machariel and or some other extremely expensive ship the only really effective counter for ishtars is more ishtars,
The biggest problem facing eve - starting out the learning "cliff" as some described it as is is one of the biggest threats to the playerbase that eve has.. people sign up, play for a week, cant really figure out how or what to do and never convert from trial to full game.. As CCP guard said at the weekend, the eve playerbase is THE best marketing tool, the highest figures have been seen for trials after battles like that in asakai, and BR5. but the conversions from trial to account remains low. This is my top most priority as this will keep the game alive for the next 10 years potentially further[/]
Dockable supers talked about in my first post, a limited number of expensive slots for supercarriers to be able to dock at station. (5 per station total and only able to utilise if you have an office in that station)
Refundable skills Similar to an attribute remap, once a year (two extra for new accounts as a "bonus") the ability to refund the skillpoints from a particular skill or two PROVIDED that it isnt a required skill to another skill. and limited to certian skills only (ie no ship skill refunds for combat ships such as gallente battleship)
a modification to the training queue For anyone who has played dust, regardless of whether you have a skill in training or not your skill points accumilate into a pool (similar to the unallocated skill points that we all got back when learning tree was removed from the game). This would be good for eveonline. so if you finished a skill you could allocate the excess at a standard rate.
Obviously picking a skill and placing it in the training queue would gain the attribute bonus to training time so the incentive is still to fill up your queue, but this would allow a little more flexibility in terms of training specific skills where a required skill falls outside of your normal play time (say 2am etc)
Removal of jita... No just kidding, but the introduction of a system that tracks and deals with some of the "isk doubling service" type spambots - you all know the ones - that populate most of hte high-sec tradehubs would be nice. (i am NOT saying that the practice and art of scamming should be made illegal under the games TOU, but you would have to physically have to be at the system playing the game to do it so no more AFK making millions).
The introduction of a player submitted content system Not game mods like in say, Skyrim or UI/game improvements as in wow addons etc, but if there is a really solid, really well thought out and careful lore based storyline or event that it is feasible to introduce into game but would need CCP help, then a formal way to get this to the CCP devteam so that they can discuss this further and possibly impliment the storyline/event/thing in game.
Homeworld style colouring of ships For those of you old enough to remember homeworld, and additionally, those of you who have played Pirates of the burning sea, you will remember you had a large element of control over how the ships colours were represented in game. If we take the Vexor for example, it has grey panels, Blueish panels and some logos around the ship. Homeworld 1 and 2, and PoTBS both allowed you to select a colour for each of these parts of the ship from an RGB based colour list. IF for example i wanted to have a black hull with yellow details and bright pink decals i could have. and i could do this for every one of my ships individually.
With the changes to teh way ships are skinned in game i think this would be a spectacular opportunity to be able to fly in "line colours" with your alliance or corporation in a doctrine ship.
[b] Higher res, better corp logos Additionally, in addition to being able to change colours of panels/sections of ship skins, have the ability to apply your corp and/or alliance logo to your ships.
this list isnt exhaustive, but contains a top list of some of the things i would love to see in eve. |
