This was exactly what I have expected. Bad change that will be presented along the applause from empire masses that won't ever go into sov anyway, while leaving us "nullbears" with mouths wide opened and jaws dropped.
Sometimes it would be nice to get some vision along with the presented changes. Is this a plan to create some weird FW area with no extra advantages at all ? What is the point of this ? So far the only advantage of having sov is:
a) tower fuel alliance bonus
b) ability to build supers
So far we saw: making jumpdrives close to useless, making JBs useless, no announced changes to very limited resources that a nullsec sov solar system offers (pathetic mining, very limited anomalies), messing up the refineries, rendering salvage useless (time x effort is hilarious with fully skilled noctis with t2 salvagers) and so on. I don't expect people from empire to understand this, regardless their mindless flapping and cheering (you showed us this time  ).
Personally I see this progress (?) towards greater chaos that will generate random battles of unorganized small groups for some time before we all realize that lowsec should be the place for this kind of thing, small entities have nothing to gain by holding sov compared to staging in NPC null or lowsec, where they can use agents and have all their members comfortably packed in one station making them sweet sweet LPs.
I realize there will be tweaks to this (June is months away now), but this concept won't make nullsec system ownership more desirable. The effort fending off various trolls attacking systems, capturing those anoms, upgrading systems (good luck with freighter convoys small alliances).
Instead of giving the players something to look forward to, your are opening Pandoras box full of big nasty surprises. Remember the last one ? With the jumpdrives ? Coalitions still work, renting is still a thing, no new entities entered nullsec sov. Only fools and people who don't know much about sov can be happy about this.

This would mean that a US TZ window would have an opposite time that would be RUS friendly and an EU window would have AUS friendly times. this system is already hilariously biased in favor of the attacker, what would make you think they need more so everyone is inclusive in attacking the goon structure. don't be a meeny selfish bee and leave out other peeps to play, that wont be fain now :p
By playing you mean cloaky camping or gate camping ? Maybe we should move entire CFC to Serpentis Prime and laugh at you trying to take sov, while grinding those sweet missions. GRRR GOONS right ?
