CCP Ytterbium C C P C C P Alliance 3751	Posted - 2015.03.23 11:38:25 - [1] - Quote Hello people, We would like your feedback on the various new structure lines presented during Fanfest and on our latest structure blog. This particular thread is going to focus on Administration Hubs and Advertisement Centers. Administration Hubs affect solar system control and ownership as a whole, like territorial Sovereignty flag, solar system security status modifiers, NPC agent spread and spawn behavior, NPC faction switching or NPC security / police forces. Advertisement Centers have no practical purpose except to show the rest of the universe how big your e-peen is. They focus on text advertisement, billboard functionality, deploying gigantic monuments, and could possibly involve frozen corpses.

xttz GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 534	Posted - 2015.03.23 11:57:53 - [2] - Quote With all due credit to a Meta Show idea a couple of weeks ago, what about an Administration Hubs upgrade that introduces wormhole-like effects system-wide? It allows sovereign space to be customised around the owning alliance and introduces opportunity to break the global meta. Let's say hypothetically there's a very commonly used ship doctrine based around shield-tanking and long-range missiles. A defending alliance about to be invaded could fit their Admin Hubs with system-wide effects that negatively affect shield HP / missile damage, and/or effects that boost their armour-based fleets / EM damage weapons. This further opens up new room for strategic options or new ship roles on both sides. For example, an attacker could nullify the effect by bringing a Titan along in their fleet, or temporarily disable the structure at a key moment. Defenders could swap the effect unexpectedly and pick a complementary fleet composition.
Querns GBS Logistics and Fives Support Goonswarm Federation 1489	Posted - 2015.03.23 12:12:07 - [3] - Quote The administrative hub's potential ability to modify solar system security status is very exciting. I hope that you guys can nail down some specifics on this and share. Nullsec has an average truesec of -0.3 or so, so the prospects of being able to improve the swathes of crap space that infest New Eden has a lot of promise. Regarding advertisement centers GÇö this is a bit against the grain of "no practical purpose," but how about allowing these services to place a system-wide beacon that anyone can warp to in local? (Like cynos and outposts currently have.) This lets individuals advertise to the system inhabitants that their Seedy POS Dive is available to use (and collect taxes) while simultaneously increasing risk to interdiction / destruction by hostiles. This post was crafted by the wormhole expert of the Goonswarm Economic Warfare Cabal, the foremost authority on Eve: Online economics and gameplay.
fluffy jo Universal Exports 8	Posted - 2015.03.23 12:42:50 - [4] - Quote Love the new structure idea. Coming from a POS industry point of view. I am not looking forward to having wasted 3-4 yearsGÇÖ worth of research on the existing POS gun turrets, missiles, ecm , shield hardeners and warp / web modules and redoing it all with any new structure modules. Is it possible for CCP to think about reusing the current POS gun turrets, missiles, ecm , shield hardeners and warp / web modules as the new modules to be used in the new Structure fitting process. The material can be changed as needed. This will save refunding all the blueprints, and all the existing modules, for all the existing POS guns / missiles etc. This will also save pilots from having to buy all the new blueprints for the new structure modules and spending time researching them. I accept the fact that the existing POS tower blueprint and modules will be removed and replaced with all new structure, but to minimise the transition it would be nice to reuse as many existing POS modules as possible. Cheers

Long-term advertising is nice (i.e promoting a buyback program at the undock), but the ability to just plant a flag short-term, say for when you're gate-camping, would be cool aswell! What about the validation process of player-made content? Will it follow the same rules as alliance logos? Or will we be limited to a set of CCP-made images? Signature Tanking Best Tanking

IE Deklein which has Guristas, could suddenly have Sansha's. Part of this would help solve the self sustaining issue. Salvage for example is somewhat regional, because Guristas for example don't drop armor plates or alloyed trit bars. That said salvage is probably one of the easiest items to import/export because of the size.

Terranid Meester Tactical Assault and Recon Unit 287	Posted - 2015.03.23 15:23:51 - [13] - Quote Use frozen corpses to create npc security forces like sansha does and/or a drone launching turret/structure that you place drones inside, and then launches them as soon as an bads get into range. So place 100 warrior I's inside of one and it launches them until all are destroyed, if this a feasible thing.

It means that a certain amount of structures could probably change a low-sec into high-sec, from 0.4 up to 0.5 which could potentially give some benefits some places. Try imagine this, as you know Aunenen (0.4 lowsec system) is almost always gatecamped in some way or another. What do you think would happen if it was suddenly turned into 0.5 system, which would mean no more "gatecamps" (I'm sure some would still do it)... I may be wrong though :S

1Robert McNamara1 The Graduates Forged of Fire 73	Posted - 2015.03.23 16:37:50 - [18] - Quote iHubs - Currently the military and industry upgrades don't help the low end sovereignty systems very well. Partly it's due to the security status limiting quantity and quality of PVE / mining sites. What if the iHubs moved the quantity in a linear fashion but quality was still metered by true-sec? This would mean a level 5 upgrade would make, say 50 PVE sites / 5 Mining sites, no matter the sec-status. Better systems get access to escalations and higher quality ore while low end systems can still support a population of players. Due to escalations popping up everywhere low-end groups have a chance to try and steal from the high end groups whenever the escalation brings them to their space. This already happens in Fountain and other places where NPC stations are a thing. Advertisements - I want a 'Body collector' that can be placed on grid, it collects corpses and shows a nice pretty readout of how many red / gray / blue corpses it's collected, just a fun way to show how a big fight is going that's too slow to be of tactical relevance but could make for a good screenshot at the end. Once done I can move its cargo to the warning monument at the entrance to my space where people see how other travelers have fared. Allow marketers to advertise their products / services with caned images and some text on the structures, they maybe rent billboard time from the owning alliance, right clicking gives access to their sales orders/contracts or at least an eve-mail. If you're worried about the 'time to *****' being too short by letting us upload images / text ourselves take a look at this service to see if it's a cost effective way to farm that out: https://www.mturk.com/mturk/welcome

Don't want to read to much into that, i know you guys are just starting, but could their be any thought about replacing anomalies with sov null mission agents of some kind. Anoms were basicalyl press-ganged into being the center of the Dominion Sov system's military upgrades, and while I am a constant anom farmer, anoms are horrible for this. They spew liquid isk (great for my wallet, horrible for the game), are predicable and semi-afk-able, and only a few of them are good. The good thing about anoms is that they escalate sometimes, forcing a player to leave a system for a bit is they want better rewards, but this is also a problem because those escalations are now farmable because of the change to escalation chances meaning the rewards are worth less as time goes on. Missions (even FW style missions with visible beacons) would be soooo much better over all, it would require pilots to do more than "warp to next anom, deploy drones, turn on ecm burst to keep aggro off drones, watch local" and people could still do anomalies just they wouldn't respawn and if you wanted to farm anoms you'd have to go to a new system once the natural ones in one system are gone. Missions also make you fly through gates instead of how anoms let you sit in one systems the whole time unless they escalate. Missions could help the economy because the LP they pay could be an additional isk sink (and i think SOV null agents would have to be 'new' not just empire faction agents transplanted to null). It could also help null grunt income because missions , unlike anoms, could be blitzed meaning better mission runners would make more than average runners would, as it is now there is very little difference between a skilled player in an afktar and a dude who just trainined an ishtar lol, their income is about the same. While this might be beyond the scope of what y'all are doing, i hope some of this is being considered at least.

While I have never been a big fan of reimbursement for changes, I agree that it could save a huge amount of time, as well as database entries, to simply convert the existing POS weaponry and defense structures to structure modules. You wouldn't even have to change the recipes. Leave them as is. Ofc, it would save even more time to simply delete them all. But then PI would crash. So converting them to structure modules seems like a good choice. http://youtu.be/YVkUvmDQ3HY
Alexis Nightwish 131	Posted - 2015.03.23 18:05:58 - [23] - Quote Feedback: "Service module possibilities: territorial Sovereignty flag, modifiers to change the security status of a solar system, to change NPC agents spread in the solar system, to switch NPC faction control or NPC security forces." Woah. I'm already imagining the abuse potential. Be very, very careful if you implement any of these, or related ideas. EVE players will absolutely game the living ** out of these to print ISK. "Everyone who wants to use a structure, does: We want structures to be as widely used as possible, by removing artificial barriers or mechanics that may be in the way. This has to stay within a reasonable risk versus reward scope, of course, and as such the most rewarding structures should always be vulnerable to attack." At the very least! Questions: How do you plan to balance the billboard's accessibility with potential spamability? Will they be freely attackable, and go into RF similar to mobile depots? What kind of content can you put up on these? Pictures? Movies? I'd love to see more cats, but I know some douche is going to put pics of his ** on there. CCP only approaches a problem in one of two ways: nudge or cludge EVE Online's "I win!" Button
Beta Maoye 59	Posted - 2015.03.23 19:59:59 - [24] - Quote I understand the advertisement will be text base, but I don't want an advertisment just like a wall of plain text. Please provide selection of fonts, size, colour, position, text animation like powerpoint slides. An advertisement may need 1-10 slides of contents. I remotely hope that images and videos will be allowed.

Nullsec has an average truesec of -0.3 or so, so the prospects of being able to improve the swathes of crap space that infest New Eden has a lot of promise. This would affect status quo game balance, which is designed to have rich and poor areas, and if you are stuck with a poor area that can't be improved, you are supposed to "covet thy neighbor's space." To preserve some of that, I don't think sec should be improvable by more than .2, add some costs or taxes, and limit it to -.5 and worse.
Somatic Neuron Masterwork Productions Inc 64	Posted - 2015.03.23 22:04:58 - [26] - Quote Since I don't see a practical use for Advertisement structures (unless you remove the ability to rename deployable structures that currently litter highsec and lowsec)... I would suggest a "plant the flag" type of structure instead. You deploy a destroyable beacon structure, and defend it. The longer you defend it, the more Reputation points you get. Can be personal or corp or alliance, depending upon deployment. It would be visible and warpable from the entire system, and would show up on the starmap (listing the type, and length of time deployed). For every hostile that you drive away/destroy, you gain Reputation points, much like FW loyalty points are generated for combat. For every additional pilot defending the beacon, you split the reputation points. If you lose the combat and the beacon is destroyed, you lose a percentage of reputation points based on how many you have gained from that structure, which the winning pilot(s) would get to split equally. This type of Reputation would be more "e-peen" in my humble opinion. It would also give small-gang objectives that would be fund and guarantee combat situations. Just throwing it out there ;)

How would you make it look unique? Why would a player do the work and maintain it? IMO its the weakest of all structures. how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

I think we all understand the advertisement part.
Kenneth Skybound Skyefleet 118	Posted - 2015.03.23 22:38:15 - [30] - Quote ==Admin Hubs== First things, PERSONNEL! Just how a ship is limited by PG, CPU, Calibration, Drone bay, Cargo space, that kind of thing... structures in a system can be limited by Personnel! But where do they all get enlisted? At your admin hubs. When it comes to upgrading structures, and having the room to plonk down many large structures in a sov-like environment, the Admin hubs can be the "power source" to it all! With various influences set by the Admin Hub, it can determine the types of NPC attracted and dissuaded, be the backbone for various bonuses to structures in system, but most importantly be the life blood of the structures! Anything which can be run needs people to run it, and instead of having to deliver a cargo hold full of people to the structures all the time, a hub which broadcasts a desire for NPC's to come flocking in themselves is the ideal means imo. Then of course there's option in how you manage such a hub. Civ in Space, gather resources (people/livestock or whatever you wanna call them) and put the resources to work in various positions for varying degrees of effect and success. ==Advertisement== Ideally I'd like to see the ability to plant down objects which advertise through customisable means provided by building block tools. There can be simple logo boards with text in the show info. The logo hologram could be corp or ally logos, custom symbols from a CCP made list (eg shapes, objects such as asteroids or wormholes), or icons such as holograms of ships or modules. There could be cheap consumable beacons for advertising locations of stuff such as "1v1 Honorbrawl" or "Free wrecks from The Score", warpable like a cyno is. Such a beacon would be very cheap, short lived and very small. There could be letterbox holograms displaying scrolling neon text (choosing colours, display type etc from a neat interface). Smaller and simpler ones should be cheaper and physically smaller, whilst bigger ones more defended. In sov space, a system owner could place a tax on such deployables. Adverts could be hacked in some way to change the message or turn off the advert (destroying in some cases, simply disabling in others hence not warranting concord intervention). Everything from the poster stuck to a tree, to the fireworks set off in the distance, to the gigantic hovering billboard with 50ton megaphones attached. But without sound. You can turn away from an advert, but sound would NOT go down well.

Brain Gehirn Reikoku Pandemic Legion 69	Posted - 2015.03.23 22:58:51 - [31] - Quote Questions: How the system security status modifier is going to work? I assume that there is going to be a limit or something. What are you going to do to help balance the factions bounty/loots to avoid people choosing just 1/2 factions to work with? How exactly these NPC security forces are going to work? What are their respawn rates/amounts and things like that? Is the amount of anoms going to be reviewed at some point? Is the faction change thing going to affect exploration aswell? Maybe officer spawns? What is a signature?
handige harrie Hedion University Amarr Empire 299	Posted - 2015.03.23 23:01:25 - [32] - Quote territorial Sovereignty flag Yes, let us plant them near gates and really big so make clear who owns what. modifiers to change the security status of a solar system Interesting, is this turning High Sec into lowsec, vice versa . awesome and risky. or making a -0.2 system a -0.3 without the ability to change them across low/high/null sec bands. to change NPC agents spread in the solar system Please let SOV Nullsec alliances hire agents which can give out Alliance LP or something funky to switch NPC faction control or NPC security forces. YES, YES, YES! Baddest poster ever

Sabriz Adoudel Glorious Revolutionary Armed Forces of Highsec CODE. 4895	Posted - 2015.03.24 00:01:06 - [35] - Quote I assume I'm reading this wrongly somewhere, but the thought of posting a structure in Uedama to drop it to 0.4 sec status fills my heart with glee. (I do, however, assume this is probably not possible and that these may be null only). Third party character faces on billboards would be hilarious. I'm just imagining a Goonswaffe member who is actually a spy loyal to N3 causing a diplomatic incident by reinforcing a few structures (easily done now), and posting billboards saying 'The Mittani sends his regards' with the Mittani's face on them.

Catherine Laartii Crimson Serpent Syndicate Heiian Conglomerate 490	Posted - 2015.03.24 03:55:15 - [38] - Quote "Service module possibilities: territorial Sovereignty flag, modifiers to change the security status of a solar system, to change NPC agents spread in the solar system, to switch NPC faction control or NPC security forces." For security status changes for systems, does this mean that nullsec systems could become lowsec, and potentially hisec? Will people finally be able to make their own hisec systems in deep null?
Daichi Yamato Xero Security and Technologies 2368	Posted - 2015.03.24 04:03:21 - [39] - Quote If we are going to put mission agents in player made structures, they'd serve better in market hubs than admin hubs. An admin hub can then determine what faction the agents within its constellation belong to (gallente, ammatar, mordus, serpentis) and could become the LP store for the area (if we dont put the LP store in market hubs as well). This would also affect the rats typically encountered in such missions. I like the idea of having admin hubs giving out minor WH affects to its constellation as well. Any more details as to what NPC security forces maybe? im hoping that at most they might replace the passive defence system of POS guns for defending structures.

Advertisement Centers have no practical purpose except to show the rest of the universe how big your e-peen is. They focus on text advertisement, billboard functionality, deploying gigantic monuments, and could possibly involve frozen corpses. +1 to NPC security / police force been discussing this on another thread doesn't seem like people like the idea of NPC helping someone owning a piece of space. How would they spawn? Does corporation provide the ships does it cost isk to employee these forces? Will there be a limit to how many can or will spawn in a system? Are these types of Interactive NPCs limited to one system or can they jump into other systems? Will NPC be doing work for the players are they providing "Free Labor"?

I would suggest a "plant the flag" type of structure instead. You deploy a destroyable beacon structure, and defend it. The longer you defend it, the more Reputation points you get. Can be personal or corp or alliance, depending upon deployment. It would be visible and warpable from the entire system, and would show up on the starmap (listing the type, and length of time deployed). For every hostile that you drive away/destroy, you gain Reputation points, much like FW loyalty points are generated for combat. For every additional pilot defending the beacon, you split the reputation points. If you lose the combat and the beacon is destroyed, you lose a percentage of reputation points based on how many you have gained from that structure, which the winning pilot(s) would get to split equally. This type of Reputation would be more "e-peen" in my humble opinion. It would also give small-gang objectives that would be fund and guarantee combat situations. Just throwing it out there ;) There are many 'practical' uses for player corporation owned structures - just use your imagination. I would say there would have to be a limit on how many could be placed per on-grid area. I suggest as well that mobile depots and storage containers could not be used for that purpose anymore as well. " They're gonna feel pretty stupid when they find out. "-áRick. " Find out what ?

A defending alliance about to be invaded could fit their Admin Hubs with system-wide effects that negatively affect shield HP / missile damage, and/or effects that boost their armour-based fleets / EM damage weapons. This further opens up new room for strategic options or new ship roles on both sides.

This would be very interesting... very cool to have added... it would certainly attract people who like to run missions but who also like to live in null sec. If these effect sov, then would these essentially replace the TCU? Will the TCU become an object that you can fit guns on? If so, you will want to remove any high slots. Otherwise you have a self-defending Sov structure.

Thoughts on Toying with Sec status I'm no big fan of this personally, at least in high/low-sec seems like it could lead to issues, maybe true-sec can get bumped lower by a system's use rather than direct action, so the more folks mine/rat/fight there the more the system will provide for them rather than direct influence. Thoughts on System Effects Isn't this stepping on W-Space's toes?

How that didn't go straight to the bad ideas graveyard I can't imagine. Security status: uhhh okay you realise that nobody in low or null wants anything but 0.1 or -1.0 respectively? You don't get "safety" in low or null by increasing sec so the only direction anyone is interested in is down. Changing security bands at the whims of players is probably just a very bad idea. As far as movement within highsec goes, yes there are parties interested in moving sec up (carebears) and down (gankers), but one party VASTLY outnumbers the other so I can't see this being balanced in high even if normal highsec engagement rules didn't apply. The practical effect will be to homogenise low and null to the lowest truesec and highsec to 1.0. NPC agent and faction switching stuff.... I don't see why this is necessary, and this ties into the previous point. Why should you be able to make space desirable? Fixed potential in the geography is good because it creates stratified conflict and places where people can go to find content. If you can change the profitability of nullsec or the safety of highsec that's just making space the same wherever you go. The npc convoys idea seem to be going in the same direction, trying to make even the location itself not matter that much. ...so yeah, administration hubs sound pretty awful all round. Corpse art exhibits are very welcome though.

Advertisement Centers have no practical purpose except to show the rest of the universe how big your e-peen is.

Few quick questions here: Admin Hubs Does that line about NPC police mean CCP is considering giving us player-configured NPC police to deploy in Null/Low/Wormholes/around our ships while we're spinning them? This seems to imply NPC agents in player-made structures. Where would these agents be located? In the admin hub? Any thoughts on a Low or Wormhole Space variant of this structure? Some random ideas: Have a "war" or "border skirmish" event when trying to change the sec status of an area or shift NPC faction control. This potentially allows players to take sides and shoot each other for the right to decide which types of rats they shoot afterwords, potentially with an option to turn in tags for a big reward at the end. This fits with the underlying Theme of Eve PvE where capusleers are uncaring or outright exploitative gods to the NPC populous of Eve, whose whims control the fortunes of those without their gifts. Have invulnerable Advertisements Centers let you "change the channel" by shooting them. Basically the same way monuments right now don't react or cause any reaction when shot, but with the potential for amusement here. It's a "for fun/e-peen" structure, let it do silly things. Potentially have special Missions from high-sec agents that let you 'recruit' an agent from their corporation if you have high enough standings. The agent can then be installed in an "Agent Slot" in an Admin Hub, leveled up, and even moved around. These slots are limited so you can't just have 200 agents of every type and corp in one place, you have to pick and choose a bit but it lets you customize the missions you get and who you get standings with. Sort of like an Exotic Dancer but for Admin Hubs instead of ship cargo holds. Maybe have multiple types of Advertisement Hub? You could have a Necropolis Hub that's basically a big repository for frozen corpses that allowed parties (possibly everyone) can deposit the corpses into. Then you can interact with the monument to see a list of the names of everyone interned within. Basically a way to show off your morbid collection without using Imgur and Reddit.

It would really help if the primary action of these would be to open the window to whatever they're advertising, the specific contract, my corp's recruitment page or the market details for the advertised item. If you do this, can you maybe put up a picture of the item in the contract or the item of the market listing or my corp logo or something like that? The UI is still bad.

Jocobo Terisi Perkone Caldari State 0	Posted - 2015.03.31 17:35:11 - [64] - Quote Admin Hub - NPC Agents I really like having NPC agents as this helps balance Sov Null versus NPC Null. Both systems will have to function similarly otherwise the benefit of using untouchable NPC Null will outweigh the potential risk of Sov Null. If the sov laser can be used to halt mission running on both, even the better. Then NPC null has risks to using the station services, even if the stations are destroyable. I like being able to go in and sov laser NPC null station services. On top of this it should also work with the constellation design. Missions should be spread throughout the constellation. This will allow for variety, risk, a chance to catch someone, and more fun. Isk levels should be on par with anomalies if not higher. Otherwise people will continue AFK-Ishtaring. Without some change to the anomaly system the current AFK meta simply allows for far too much income. Admin Hubs - Security Status This one is really exciting if you live in a crap region of Nullsec. Being able to turn somewhere like Pure Blind into better space is great. I say better, and not perfect, because there should still be a bonus to living somewhere like Tenal or Feythabolis. Maybe allow a change to the truesec of no more than 0.5. Admin Hubs - Faction Control This is interesting, but I think should only be used in border constellations. It seems a bit silly to be able to flip all of Fountain to Angels. But to allow encroachment on the border would make for some variety and also for a potential conflict zone. Admin Hubs - NPC Security This is Null. I'm not sure I see the intended result. If these police were too strong then there's not much reason to defend. If they are too weak then they don't offer much incentive. It seems difficult to balance between the two. I'd rather see resources go elsewhere and leave this one alone.

Cade Windstalker Donohue Enterprises Ad-Astra 320	Posted - 2015.04.01 17:23:17 - [66] - Quote Ideas for how player actions and interactions could affect security status Boring background stuff (skip if you know how sec-status affects system value in Null) So, in Null the negative Security Value of a system determines how valuable that system is. The systems with true negative security status of -1.0 are generally the most active and the most sought after for PvE content. Systems with true-sec status closer to 0.0 are significantly less valuable, to the point that under the current system they often sit fallow and un-used except for strategic value or by niche players and the occasional interloper. This means the ability to influence the security status of systems in your space is extremely valuable and should come with an appropriate cost or risk as well. The Ideas All of these ideas require an Admin Hub with the appropriate upgrade(s). These are just mechanics that could be used in association with the admin hub to drive gameplay. They could be combined or used separately and could all run off of the same upgrade or multiple upgrades (so if you want to upgrade a -0.3 system to -0.9 you need to stack a lot of upgrades on a single Hub and skimp on something else. I'm going to avoid the obvious "pay money, lower sec status" idea. It's obvious, I don't think it's very compelling and it doesn't affect gameplay beyond increasing revenue. I also don't think it should be possible, or at least practical, to make all space uniformly -1.0 or anywhere close. Otherwise there's less incentive to steal someone else's fully upgraded -1.0 uber-farm. More spaceboat violence lowers sec-status - More or less what it says on the tin. The more ships that are destroyed in an area over time the lower the sec status gets. Under a system like this B5RB would be the most profitable system in Null for a week or two after the famous battle. There are a couple of obvious problems with this though, the first being the potential for gaming the system. Basically treating the required losses in-system like a tax and blowing up your own ships until you hit the daily or weekly top-up threshold. If you're making enough off of the sec status being lower then this is still a perfectly profitable endeavor. It also disincentivizes losing ships in your enemy's space, since it also buffs it. Personally I think this could contribute to sec status but shouldn't be the only mechanic for the above reasons. Ideally the balance point has the PvP activity that large amounts of PvE attracts bringing up the overall value of the system or at least helping to maintain it, while simultaneously driving content. New site types to affect Sec Status - These sites should, ideally, be of slightly lower value than the average for whatever the current sec status of the system is, as well as being more difficult, but completing them pushes the sec status of the system in the desired direction. This could involve fighting Concord outposts, Empire Navy, or something else entirely. The goal is for the sites to be fun and difficult to complete, at least enough so that the players are actually risking their ships if someone happens by and tries to gank them. I personally think having the sites use Empire Navy is the most interesting option. Blowing them up has a built-in cost in sec status with two empire factions, which pushes people to potentially install Empire Agents in Null to keep their sec-status up (since getting shot at by gate guns isn't helpful when running to Jita). They could also drop Navy tags, which would shift around market prices and ISK concentrations based on where people are playing and earning their ISK, whether that's between different regions or even between High and Null Sec space. The disadvantage here is that so far any NPC content has proven to eventually become relatively safe and routine. Though this could be mitigated somewhat with ship restrictions and more dangerous rats (perhaps something borrowing a mix of elements from Incursions, Sleepers, Drifters, and the Burner Missions), combined with the threat of player interference. Activity levels across a constellation affect Sec Status - Basically if people are active everywhere in a constellation then the entire constellation gets more valuable, but systems still maintain granularity. You can't pull the entire constellation down to -1.0 unless it was already close to that in the first place. This reinforces the constellation based mechanics we already see through the Entosis system and incentivizes players to at least superficially spread out their activity. The down-side, I think, is that it also turns playing in these lower value systems into a sort of work that you have to do to keep the high value in the others. While I think any gameplay mechanic used to affect the Sec Status of a system is going to have an element of this, this one doesn't really do anything new, at least by itself, and I'm not sure that's enough to actually impact player behavior outside of what we're seeing right now already. This post is purely to generate discussion. I don't claim that all of these ideas are perfect or even good. They're just ideas for the consideration of everyone here and if someone sees a major flaw or comes up with a better idea then great. These aren't meant to be fully fleshed out ideas either, just rough concepts, so if you see something here and go "oh, that would suck unless it's done this way" then please point out what that way is :)

Kinda goes along with the whole "system control and ownership" thing. Obviously this counteracts part of the breaking up of sov structure ownership under the upcoming system, but I believe in the dev blog on that Fozzie himself said that in practice the sov-holding alliance would own the I-Hub as well. Basically I think that if you had one structure performing two functions that go hand-in-hand, it would make that part of holding sov just a little less complicated. I'll leave the specifics of how this would work (and the probably rebuttals) to more intelligent and well-versed players from that aspect of the game, as I have no experience in a null alliance.

Outposts could have billboard 'hard-points' which you could rent / buy forever to place your graphics on from the advertisement hub. A deploy-able billboard with an expiration of a small time would be epic when on structure grinds or mining ops. Hack-able for sure, that would allow 'tagging' and turf war aspects to take place too.

Interesting idea, but I think all Billboard content would have to be approved by CCP once you get past displaying alliance logos with an info window/recruitment add for the alliance attached. The problem being "Time to ***" among other things. I'd give it an hour before someone would decide Jita needs to see the worst ** anyone could find, and another two hours before someone uploads a 10-hour Rickroll to a billboard (because what we all totally need is a gig download of billboard GIFs...)

Alternative would be limited range chat channel around structure. - XL advertisement centers are more like roleplaying buildings where you can show your imaginary structures in universe (structure allows docking). L advertisement centers are more like monuments (no docking). Comments are welcome for my bullet point ideas. Mikhem Link library to EVE music songs.

Could even put them on the same scale where a new "incursion" can only be spawned once every 12-36 hours, with the potential to be lower depending on the sov index (based on occupancy metrics).

Sometimes capsuleer have strong feelings about other capsuleer. He/She either hates or likes other capsuleer. You can't make wardec to NPC factions and wardec is too big tool for capsuleer vs capsuleer disputes. Space TV-screen would be excellent tool for showing hate/like to other capsuleer or faction. You could load capsuleer faces / faction logos to space tv-screen. This picture could alternatively have thick red cross X on picture. If you hate someone you load picture with X and if you like someone you load picture without X. This allows you to promote your favorite faction / capsuleer or show hate to faction / capsuleer. Allow us to show like and hate in TV-screen. This works the same way as holding red sheet in front of bull and allows our opinions to be attacked in EVE. Comments are welcome for my idea.

This further opens up new room for strategic options or new ship roles on both sides. For example, an attacker could nullify the effect by bringing a Titan along in their fleet, or temporarily disable the structure at a key moment.

Kenneth Fritz DND Industries 0	Posted - 2015.05.19 05:05:40 - [97] - Quote Advertisement Structures: A lot of people see no practical reason/use for the admin structures. However, if there were multiple settings for the structure based on what you wanted to do with it I could envision some very definitive uses. - First actual use I could see ties into my comment above about personnel. You place a structure that is designed to attract NPC personnel to your system. Bigger add structures reap bigger rewards. You could even tailor them towards specific factions and/or NPC corporations. - Next I feel these could take the place of if not link to the current recruitment advertisement process for player corporations. - And finally the generic whatever you wish to put out to the world advertisements. All advertisement structures would be destructible at all times except for those specifically attached to corp. recruitment i.e. single small structure like the NPC versions you see outside gates already. Those are invulnerable for a set time (say 72 hours) before they're free game. Thus adding a new area of corporate competition that doesn't necessarily rely on people explodicating each other. Also making the structures hackable would be nice. Gives offender a suspect status but allow you to affect changes to the displayed advertisement until the owner comes to fix it. Could even make covert hacking module that allows hacks without incurring suspect status.

McChicken Combo HalfMayo The Happy Meal 850	Posted - 2015.07.01 16:06:33 - [100] - Quote CCP Ytterbium wrote: Administration Hubs affect solar system control and ownership as a whole, like territorial Sovereignty flag, solar system security status modifiers, NPC agent spread and spawn behavior, NPC faction switching or NPC security / police forces. On the topic of structures affecting solar system control and ownership, consider this idea I put forth a couple months back. Yes, some of you may have read this about 4 times already. It's been proposed that structures like admin hubs could provide bonuses to things like mission running and mining. Instead of structures providing a set bonus, how about they leech bonus from a collective pool for each system? Imagine for a moment that each system offers a 30% bonus to mission profits or mining through the deployment of structures. If one corp deploys the structure they receive the 30% bonus for that activity. If a second corp deploys the structure, each corp receives only a 15% bonus for that activity. Three structures, 10% each. This would promote either cooperation between the corps (forming one larger corp) or competition between them (kill the other corp's structure to get your full bonus). Systems like Osmon and ice systems would be a proper warzone. To prevent abuse we would add an industrial index to the equation. There are two ways to prevent abuse using that. 1) You need to have a certain amount of industrial activity in the system before you can deploy the structure. or 2) The structures start with leeching 0% bonus from the system pool and only gain bonus through industrial activity. The numbers are arbitrary of course but you get the picture. The idea is to have the presence of structures affect not only the deploying corp, but also the other corps that utilize the system. This creates conflict. There are all our dominion Gate camps: "Its like the lowsec watercooler, just with explosions and boose" - Ralph King-Griffin

Advertisement Centers have no practical purpose except to show the rest of the universe how big your e-peen is. They focus on text advertisement, billboard functionality, deploying gigantic monuments, and could possibly involve frozen corpses. Admin Hub Ideas... -I love the idea of solar system security modifiers. Creating a hisec island opens up lots of ideas because, being capsuleer made, CONCORD wouldn't be present but criminal flagging would be. -Agent creation and development could be a mechanic (Helping Joe the agent upgrade to level 2 missions with LP derived from his corporation) -Declaring Faction loyalty could open up new Faction Warfare routes. Perhaps remove iHubs in FW space and force players to build and maintain these structures instead to vie for control. Advertisement Centers Ideas... -Frozen Corpse Museum. Player can interact with museum from a distance of 10km and view a list of the corpses in the museum. Corpses can be deposited from players that are members of the corp/alliance. Corpse adding/removal could be locked behind a role. -Marketing Boards: the station could have a module for marketing boards that allow the deployment of boards within a given radius (lightyears) and limits how many could be deployed. This could allow low/null corps/alliances to deploy robust marketing boards in hisec systems to attract recruits, or in enemy space to troll them. Boards would be destructible. -Categorized Bulletins: allows leadership to develop multiple bulletin boards in corp/alliance interface to improve communications within the organization. -Any aesthetic improvements to the station would be managed with these modules beyond any basic aesthetic functions, such as advanced color schemes, aesthetic improvements for the sake of looks and display of wealth.
