Interesting way to replace Outposts, sounds fun for everyone involved :) With good tradeoffs.

C-J6MT belonged to the Red Alliance for a very long time. And you here so want to delete this story? My friend several times participated in the battles for C-J6MT in the ranks of the legendary Alliance.

If they wanted to be a-holes, they could still make the point where your ship model "spawn" when you undock outside of the tethering range. I don't think they will but it's definitely not impossible. |

Ripard Teg wrote:Good changes! It looks like you guys have put a lot of thought into this, and it shows. Two questions:
You mention that during the transition, some assets will be automatically to asset safety "as needed". Can you elaborate?
And it's implied in your posts, but not explicitly stated: will the faction Fortizars be destroyable as current Fortizars are? If so, does this mean that over time and eventually, there will be zero faction Fortizars with no replacements possible?
Likely based on who has access. So if the person cannot dock there, their assets will automatically be put into asset safety.
If the second question is true, then hopefully they will leave behind some epic wrecks marking the location of the former faction citadel. But I think they mentioned the possibility of other faction citadels during fanfest, just nothing to bet on.

The final owner's name will be a small note. (Watch https://www.twitch.tv/videos/133986045 - 5:54:30) CCP will ask, in months ahead, for events to write on the landmark.

Check the "Faction Citadel Image" link in post #2. The dotted circle is not shown in full, but seems to center on the new Citadel. I expect they will be just as "safe" for undock tethering as other Citadels. |

what about cyno jammers/beacons/jump bridges.. bro
you haven't brought this mess up yet... we still need POS and POS is way better than these "beg for content" structures you're coming up with..

By making faction citadels destructible and unanchorable, you have basically just given a huge middle finger to every station-owning null sec power. PL and others will just steamroll these pre-patch.
You have basically just handed all of the faction citadels to PL on a silver platter. Well done. |

This has been CCP's long term plan. To make everything in the game dynamic and changeable where nothing should be permanent. Everything in the game should be mutable and destructible. Rare items can become more rare or forever lost just like the real world. Not everything is replaceable thus making it even more valuable.
I welcome the change and the dynamic that players can directly influence that change for the good and/or bad. Don't like PL? Organize something against them. Etc. |

The Epic Arcs I know don't mean a lot to most but to some of us they do and it's good to get some positive ISK reward from them along with the faction standing. I am not asking for anything special here just parity with the Amarr implant etc. Agree 100%.
Also I'd like to know what happens to all the Hyasyoda lab's that haven't been activated and are still sitting in players assets ?
Seems to me CCP is too quick and hell bent on getting player stuff destroyed that they don't bother looking at anything else associated with those assets.

I don't fancy wading through all the fanfest footage - Are HighSec and LowSec stations being treated the same as those in Nul as far as industrial things go?

Unless I've totally missed something nothing is happening to any NPC stations. Only the Conquerable ones are changing.
It is possible I've missed something of course, but I doubt it. |

CCP are you ret@rded?
Why the F you want to remove POS after over 10 years of good service?
Why you want us to pay 10-20 time MORE for LESS functionality and protection? ( no forcefield, no automated guns) Where are my laser guns on the citadels? all i see is Caldari crap missiles...
What is wrong with outposts? leave them alone... they have been part of eve for very long and have costed a lot of time and resources to build
Better go fix things that need fixing (claim system is just bad at the moment LOL), make PvE suitable for groups (solo 10/10 is very poor pve content guys) |

Quote:New EdenGÇÖs 68 Conquerable Stations have an especially important place in EVE player history. For most of their existence they made ideal locations for alliance home systems spread across the entire cluster. Conquerable Station Systems like NOL-M9, H-W9TY, C-J6MT, 1V-LI2, VFK-IV, BKG-Q2, C9N-CC, JV1V-O and FAT-6P have all been host to amazing Capsuleer achievements and epic stories full of drama and suspense. Awesome! It's so good that you remember that those stations is not just a number on map.
But consider removing this statement "These structures will eventually be replaced by new Upwell items with a transition process beginning over the summer". Because whoever owns those stations now are not connected with those deeds.

As a director of a small Alliance that owns three outposts, and has for the past 6 years, I am looking at this with sadness.
By making them unique and irreplaceable, you've painted a huge target on Provi's back. You're setting us up as irresistible bait - the estimates I've heard are in the 10's of Trillions for the ~80 that we have in Providence - and while I'm sure we'll fight, we're not going to be able to beat the large coalitions who will be looking at all the ISK just hanging there in space.
I get what you're trying to do, but really it just feels ****** to know that our 6 years of building and maintaining our stations together, and occasionally having to fight to get them back, is just going to be tossed out the window for some new owner that might have it for as little as a few hours.
I remember the huge group efforts we took to build them and upgrade them over the years, and it was one of the things that brought us together as a team, as it was something big that we could all contribute towards, and put our mark on the game.
This is our station. There are many like it, but this one is ours.
I'm not saying that you shouldn't remove outposts, I understand why they need to be destructible, but to achieve that goal, you don't have to do this unique, one-time only faction item thing. It just guarantees that the big boys will take most of them over the next 6-9 months, and keep them with firepower that we simply can't match.
And Providence is a unique region in Eve. It's seen as a bit of a game preserve, where people can come to get fights 24/7, 7 days a week, where neutrals are allowed access to all the fruits of nullsec, and there is a lot of history tying the Alliances that live there with Providence. A lot of that history is that of building outposts, with the goal for years to try and put one in every system. That's just what we did... we were scrappy builders who did something that no other region cared to do.
By making all those outposts special, unique items that are worth a ton of ISK, and can never be replaced, you're not really considering what that will do to all of the people who call Provi home, either as residents, neutrals or the hostiles that are there day in and day out making the game interesting for everyone.
In short, it sucks.
We built all of this over the course of more than a decade, and the fruits of that labor will go to groups that otherwise don't give two ***** about Providence.
Please reconsider making them unique. Seed the BPCs somehow, to lower the value of our stations, so that maybe we'll be able to hold on to some of them.
Thank you. |

As for POSes, the one use that has not been replaced is that of a cheap base for a short trip somewhere. A young corp or newbros can buy themselves a small tower, go into a WH and set up shop for an afternoon, a few days or a week, and then take it with them when they leave. You can't do that with a structure that takes 24 hours to anchor, and 7 days to unanchor.
So, why not just leave them in game as portable bases, with corporate hangars, and simple remove all the industry functionality from them? Or come up with a small citadel class that anchors and unanchors in under an hour?
I feel like that's the most glaring hole in the Starbase->Citadel design.
Also, the 7 day unanchor timer with the fact that expensive rigs get destroyed really is one of the driving forces behind citadel spam. Since it costs nothing to just leave them there, but it does cost time and ISK to take one down, people just leave them behind.
So, yeah, that needs to be addressed as well. |

Because now we have all citadels with production complexes in one system and the benefits for faction citadels are not good enough to relocate our production complexes anywhere. I do not see any motivation. Just as I don't see any motivation to attack systems with outposts. |
