I like the op's idea's, maybe with a few more tweaks.
Removal of rat loot drops replaced with higher bounties
Change reprecessing to give a new material (Pot metal) that can be used in the process of building instead of minerals also making mining a more important aspect of the game and possibly fix much of industry at the same time since even the "Junk" won't be flooding the markets making it worthwhile to produce the items |

The only catch I can see is if there is too much done, (f.ex. having to reposition and all) would be how much more difficult mining in low/null sec would become. You always want to be aligned to a pos or station and ready to warp at a moments notice. A hostile can enter system and scan you down in a very short amount of time and even if your watching local you can still lose your ship.
Now of course common sense would tell you to watch the channels, but half the time things aren't reported, and unless you have an alt just for sitting in a neighboring system/ systems someones going to pop up and suprise you. Now add in multi boxing and you've just lost a squad of hulks and maybe an orca/ rorq.
I agree that changes need to be made, just keep in mind the unintended consequences. |

I agree that changes need to be made, just keep in mind the unintended consequences. All of these are reasons why you don't mine alone (if these changes were to go into effect, that is). These changes seem tailored to encourage mining ops, which is exactly what mining should be in lower sec space.
That would force me to stay in high sec since most alliances are dead at the time I'm on, and my time is limited with rl work. Guess I could just switch to ganking.... |
