I am not sure if this has been mentioned yet, I don't have time to read through all the posts but I second this if someone has mentioned it.
Outright removing structures in place all over New Eden then having to put up the new ones in their place just seems like a serious issue. If I am upset that even my medium tower and a few POCOs will have to be replaced, I can't imagine how furious the bigger alliances are. I mean it's a hell of a lot of stress even on a small level, I would imagine entire alliances having to practically fold their sov and rebuilt from the ground-up. If they can put in such an enormous effort to replace everything, then wow I would be amazed. This is putting an incredible amount of stress on the community.
I think we should have an option to CONVERT existing structures into the new, appropriate replacement. We should have the same grace period as we would have completely renovating our entire structure purely for converting structures. I have read the devblog twice on the structures, and it sounds incredible and I love the idea, but removing structures and having to replace them completely - not so much. For example towers of small, medium, and large can be converted into an appropriate new replacement - maybe make it safe to do this over a period of downtime. Same with other structures such as outposts of various sizes being converted to an appropriate replacement, as well as other structures in the game.
I just feel that everyone actually having to replace everything is dangerous for the game and hurting the players. I highly suggest this is looked into. I have been playing MMO's since 2004 and I have tried out many of them. When MMOs take out stuff, it's always a bad thing and hurts the game.
Would you guys suddenly take out spaceships instead of just re-balancing, updating models, textures, graphics etc? Structures are an even more serious issue than taking out spaceships without some kind of replacement put in place. They take a ton of work and it will ruin literally the working processes of entire alliances. |
