Currently officer spawns ONLY spawns in the factions home region e.g. Stain, Venal, Fountain and Curse. In the non-home regions only Commander spawns spawns.
But what I find VERY annoying is that in Fountain, there is only about 4 stations, and the rest of Fountain is free from Serpentis sovereignity. BUT, in Great Wildlands, there is 3 stations, BUT the whole ******* region is under the sovreignity of Thukker Tribe. It just does not make any sense at all! Support POS Overhaul - Read it NOW! |

Well if I was to try to fluff up a reason for you: Thukker tribe are meant to be nomadic. Their lack of permanent bases (stations) cannot be taken as an accurate measure of how much of the space they "use" and so claim as their territory. Serpentis, on the other hand, is a drugs cartel- they have no reason to have much presence outised of the space they use for their factories / bases.
Doesn't mean its not silly though -----------------------------------------------

Well...It is that time of the evening where the madness takes over me. (Pub closing time)
I'm going to be one of the first CEOs to declare that my corp will be doing our jolly best to do the land grab (Similar to Cruise and Kidman in Far & Away) and put a POS up in CUT-0V as soon as possible!
HURRAH!! The way I see it we have a 95% chance of losing the tower in a gatecamp en route...A 4% chance we make it and anchor a tower only to find it blown up the same day as Dread target practise...And a 1% chance of it staying up longer than that only to find we've run out of fuels within a week!! Let the madness begin!!
Anyone else going to make the mad dash?...No? -Then you got a few cloaking Itty 5's we can borrow? Me love you long time...

Ive been to the new regions and fin myself wondering..
What will become of them. Given that there are no named spawns, no stations, no bounties, no loot. Offset by decent ores, alloys, drones dropping invention componets (not that you can't get them elsewhere)
The question comes to mind, what will the big bot alliances do?
Will they go in and setup there, leaving behind the old regions?
Will they try to hold both?
Test the waters but then leave?
And why are 500+ solar systems entered by 3 chokepoints? Will anyone even risk trying to go, knowing what its like in n-rael, EC and the like?
Will RA take the candy they are given, (for being such upstanding players ) bringing along the goons for sword fodder, or will they stay in cache, and raid the new corps trying to set up there? (given that they are so close to controlling it out of the box )
What of the "accross the universe" alliances, will they pick up and move 60 jumps, having no access to new regions otherise?
Will the vaccumun be filled?
============
It seems to me that while its great adding the new content, regions that are "different", it will not change a great deal in the long run. Huge alliances may well use this new ground just to ease their growing pains.
I would like to see more entry points though.
Id like to see more of a spread for all alliances to pick from, not just one side of the map. Bob/ASCN out west, Iron and whoever in the north, the south..
Just seems a little one sided atm. Time will tell I guess..

I always wondered why EVE could not be a sphere galaxy and not a flat galaxy.
Where jump gates would be connected across the galaxy and not just around. They placed more gates around the galaxy the last major patch. I hope the provide more across behind gates now at least.
In the sphere idea I have you would have 4 inner areas that each quarter would have a couple systems between each where there is 0.1-0.4 systems. Friendlies would have green space.
In the sphere idea 0.0 would have no restraint from any region. At least 1 connection between every region and its not necessary at the edge.

It'd make the map flat-out impossible to use, for one thing. Turn the existing map end-on and try navigating through Domain or somewhere else in the middle.

Best post on the whole subject of the new regions
Seriously, I think the whole No Bounties and more Minerals is a good thing, It means that those who want to LIVE in that part of space can achive a good lvl of self suficency quickly and those that come there to try and find a "Thormagosmic Multi spectral warp drive overhauler" can stay in curse or Venal or wherever. _______________________________________________

Self sufficiency? With a full set of all tech II modules BPOs perhaps. If not will be funny flying around in ships with self-sufficient tech I mods... unless if Invention works out as a lot more practical than it now seems... Arguably my opinions represent to an extent the opinions of my alliance and in particular circumstances give rise to a valid "casus belli" claim. |

I had not given a second thought to T2 mods or ships but if you find that you really need them then a carrier can jump in all the T2 mods (and a fair number of T2 frigs) you could use and lose.
And what group/corp/alliance that is serious about 0.0 living these days does not haveaccess to at least 1 carrier ? _______________________________________________

There are 2 reasons for flat galaxies: 1. Its how its mostly been in RL (thought not always) 2. Much more important: It would be nightmare to navigate in sphere galaxy. The PC display is 2-D and even paning and turning doesnt help enouth. 3. The hammer: you dont need all that of you want more choke points. Nothing in game mechanic prevents to add 10x as much choke points right now.

Considering the new map is a joke and a pain-ita you are right, but nothing prevents CCP from designing something useful next time and add an option to fade out certain regions you dont want to see...

I sort of like this.
It makes the new regions less likely to be immediately seized by established alliances, and new blood gets a chance to move in and start building infrastructure.
I bet the ISS could benefit a ton by building a trading post or two there. ------------------------------------------- "Sarcasm and irony are not to be used by the uninitiated."

Just out of interest, have any of you who are moaning been to a drone plex? the ships there drop stuff for T2 production, morphite etc. also, we arent talking lv2 mission drops, the drops will be substantially better.
IMHO it will be better to see something new rather than more of the same.

Certainly an interesting twist, one which alot of ppl may be looking at the wrong way. The usual 0.0 problem is getting modules back to empire, conversly getting materials out is an equal pain, 0.0 mining too.say you wanted toi build something substansial, like say a station, gathering the materials would be a whole lot easier, so would production if one was constructed...
