I'm burned out from shooting structures for two years.
Please design a sovereignty system that doesn't involve only timers and absolutely ******** amounts of EHP, thanks.
I originally tried writing a nice OP about why shooting TCUs and SBUs and IHUBs is stupid and why Eve players desperately need something new and fun to shoot at, but then the gank-monster ate it and I cursed CCP and their terribad forums. So all you're going to get is this. |

Where's the variation on type? Why do they all have 50% resists and countless HP? Why can't you put GUNS ON THEM? Why is there no penalty if no one shows up to defend them? Why aren't there ones with more HP than others? Why are they the sole determinant of sovereignty? Why, why, why... |

Took me a moment to think about that and then I concluded that it would be an improvement over the current system. |

It would always be "blob central" as you describe it because people are supposed to be living there. |

Hey you can take those goodposts and go right back where you came from
This is Eve-O general discussion, that kind of riff-raff doesn't belong here. |

"A sovereignty system that bases the difficulty of taking a system on the influence that its inhabitants exert over it?
That makes absolutely no sense, so we're not adding it."

No, we're just incredibly bitter and jaded players. Your ideas are much better than the rubbish that passes for ideas around here normally. |

Or you could, you know, not have structures with that number of hitpoints in systems that nobody ever uses.
There should be penalties for holding space that you don't actually live in. It would certainly mold the borders of the map more closely to what the actual power of nullsec alliances is. |

Titania Hrothgar wrote:do they shoot back in 0.0? They should. Have them have progressively more awesome offensive capabilities as the level goes up. Not in High Sec, but in 0.0 they should be able to blow up ships that intrude. It would take fleets to get in and take the system over.. The whole Tradewars effect if anyone here has played it.
...I suppose it was only a matter of time before somebody posted something dumb in here.
No, IHUBs, TCUs, and SBUs do not fire back. |

I would actually suggest that maybe a serious nerfing of their HP would be suitable, maybe if you made it the health of a Titan? or something a bit less? I don't know the exact numbers I'm afraid, I haven't had the chance to play 0.0 properly because of all the gate campers.
If you've never had "the chance to play 0.0 properly" (because of all the gatecamps? oh lawdy) then you probably shouldn't be commenting on what's wrong with it or how to fix it. |

Wasn't the intention of getting a 100% null-monkey council to improve life in null .. specifically to get Dominion revisited and Sanctum faucet reopened? But I must admit, it is good to see that even the bigger entities (well, Goon Ego's are big at any rate  ) are starting to get annoyed with the broken system they are forced to live with .. a little late but at least you made it!
Remember how Crucible was a pony more and a kick in the balls less than Incarna? You can thank the CSM for that. CCP still has to fix most of the nullsec problems and there's really not much the CSM can do to force them to do that. |

I know for a fact that CCP will implement player ideas if they are sound. Consider, for example, PI taxes. Originally CCP was going to continue using the fantasy numbers that existed back when PI goods were sold by NPCs. Then a player named pmchem came along, wrote out some fancy schmancy math, and pointed out to CCP that the notion of the tax was pointless at the current base levels and that POCOs could almost never pay for themselves without a hundred people using the planet. And so CCP changed the tax, to almost exactly what he suggested. |

Oh, joy, it's been moved to F&I. Well, thread, so long, and thanks for all the fish.
