I just wanted to start a discussion on how Shiva will be changing the way that corporations and alliances operate in 0.0 space. Until we see the patchnotes, cost of new items, and actually get to play with the new features, everything is speculation at this point. Considering what has been leaked so far, I would like to see what some of you predict happening durring the first few weeks.
The biggest change I see is the ability for corps to set up their own "settlements" around moons. This feature alone will change how the 0.0 game plays completely. The specifics on how this will change EVE is something I am interested in hearing some fresh perspectives on.
Also interested in:
is Tech 3 coming and has tech 2 peaked with interceptors?
Deep space manufactiring?
New ship classes and abilities?
Real alliance tools?
Jovians? (I can almost smell them from Venal)
New regions opening?

Agreed, Prophet. The ability to finally destroy the substantial assets of a corporation will be a very likely possibility. However, CCP may nerf/counter this with insurance for the POSs and god-like defensive platforms.

also, it wont be possible for alliances to hide in empire space anymore since corp wars will affect the whole alliance. alliances whit alot of non pvp corps will probably loose alot of members or the non pvp corps will be forced to become more pvp oriented
Good point. Will alliances be based exclusively on corp to corp standings and will standings change instantainiously like they do now? If so, I see alliances with large industrial bases not using the tools or adjusting their standings down to neutral if their empire side assets are threatened. I hope there will be some yet unseen incentive to use the new system. Alliance managment could use some lovin.

This press release with all of the new features for Shiva seems WAY too good to be true. I would love to see the press release for Castor and see how many of those new features are in EVE yet. My guess would be "few".
Anywho, Thanks to for all of the great responses. I think everyone replying here have made some great contributions to this debate. I know that it has tweaked my perspective (and probably many others) on how to approach these new features. However, one thing very clear to me is that only time will settle this discussion. It would be interesting to re-visit this thread in 3 months to see how acurate our predictions were.
