A suggestion that can hopefully be considered by devs.
The bane of Eve that disillusions a lot of ppl is the gang-bang mentality. A large group pwn smaller groups or lone players, combined with fleet battles with larger gangs that is even more boring and off-putting for gameplay. Other threads have discussed the pro's and con's of these observations.
My suggestion is to limit the number of ships that can target another single ship. The larger the ship the more locks it can take eg Battleship can be locked by no more than say 6 attackers while a frigate 2 etc. Every ship from a shuttle to a BS would have the same lock 'strength' that builds up a feedback resonance on a target and a resistance to further locking. This would encourage smaller groups for combat as larger numbers will be useless if they cannot lock. Large fleets would have to be broken down into strict fleet commands and compelled to work independently of the bigger group.
This is just a thought for discussion but i personally think something has to be done in this direction to make Eve live longer.

My Questions about the Fanfest:
+ Ambulation will be available for testing to the people attending to the Fanfest. Will we (the other players) be able to test it, too? + What will EVE-TV show about the Fanfest? --- "Multiple exclamation marks are a sure sign for a diseased mind." -Terry Pratchett |

Edited by: Zanphear on 30/10/2008 16:43:19 Will we be able to get a schedual with the events happening on fanfest beforehand or will we have to wait till we get there and get out tickets ? :)
Are there any restrictions on when you can enter or leave the house fanfest is held in ?
If I bring friends along that are wow players but not eve players will they be beaten to death ?

When will ambulation be available for testing? is there an eta of when it will be on the live server? 
Will ccp be taking further steps to reduce lag? Its really bad during peak times.

Will there be any news in the fanfest about the faction ships, maybe them getting some love after left in the dark and I guess the pirate cartels have accuired some new technology as well to modify their current available ships. The faction battleships have kept up some of their pride, but the smaller ships are a bit left in the dark after t2 frigs/cruisers. Is there any plans upcoming path to give the pirate faction industrial productions a bit boosting aswell as the player industry gain some love? :)

I expect that everybody who is going there will bring something for all the people who werent able to go there. make a video and put it on youtube. make pictures and interview all devs you can see.
We can do our own report when ccp dont does that. ;-)

I agree with Belmarduk here. Now that "Ghost training" is being removed, what's the harm of adding, at the very least, the ability to allow skill training to progress automatically to the next level? That way, the people with real lives and can't log onto to EVE at odd hours in the morning or can't log in every day can still get the maximum skill training done on their character.
Originally by: Belmarduk Edited by: Belmarduk on 29/10/2008 23:35:15 When will a LIMITED skill-queue be implemented ?
Skill-changing has NOTHING - I repeat - ZERO - to do with playing the game - its a part of account management.
NOT having a SQ only gives people who have 24/7 access to Eve an unfair advantage over people who dont.
Continuesly having to login to only change a skill only leaves a bad taste to a game that is otherwise great ! Greetings Belmarduk

Keep in mind that if they did that, me and two of my buddies would run around in frigates, always having each other locked up and be completely invulnerable since we all have two people targeting us. Many people would quickly figure out this exploit and roaming gangs of seemingly invulnerable players would form. Bad idea, or at least it needs some serious refinement.

Edited by: Sillaris on 30/10/2008 18:44:08 Well i have a few questions to ask and requests to ask, firstly i have noticed the loot tables and the names of the loots and some see it as just trash, well as a gaming person i would like to suggest a color codded system for loot and objects and fittings. keep in mind they will be highlighted with the colors
Orange items= Legnedary items (would be extermly rare to obtain one) Purple items= Epic items (would be very hard to obtain one) Blue Items= Rare items (would be hard to obtain one) Green items= Commen (would be fairly commen among drops from NPCS) grey items= trash items (crap items that drop off anyone of the NPCs) A table like this it would allow people to look though there loot they find off wrecks and off cargo drops without discarding them as all junk, something like this would help people with prices and find out what the true rareity of a item would be and not just asking people what it is and how rare it is.
Another thing i would like to suggest, and it would be allowing you to train another character on the same account. Ok say you have a charactor thats mining charactor and mining can get duel and boreing very quickly. Why not have the abilty to train another character without haveing to stop the training on the first one, to be honest no one has alot of money for two accounts one for mining and the other for fighting, so i would suggest allowing players have the abilty to train two characters on the very same account name.
and 3rdly Putting in a ARENA!!! I suggest a arena, a battlegroud of 80-120 people or so, this would allow people to battle againt other people in a massive battlefield without the risk of loseing a ship skill points or anything really, this would allow people that are scared of the PVP system to get used to it, to fight againt another player without the risk of loseing his or her ship and this would only be done in the arena itself. When a player would want to join a arena, they would Que up for a battleground, the server would wait for 80+ people before allowing them all to join the BG (battleground)after that your team would be group up againt another faction all player based, with each kill you would gain a point/s and up your rank from privet all the way towards Admiral/genaral or such as that. Each kill will -NOT- leave wreckage so no one can make a quick buck with a ship with nothing but salvagers. Allowing this arena would help people move into lower sec space and ease there mind of PVP being is that they would know what to do in a out of battleground fight and to be honest it would be fun.
BG's Capture the flag (Run that flag!) King of the hill (hold that hill soldier!) slaughter (kill till the timer or teams points run out) you will have the abilty to respawn!
As well as many more, I would suggest some more but i am abit late for work. I hope you enjoyed my suggestions and hope you can look passed some of the grammer errors being I was typeing quickly and trying to get ready for work as well, but I hope you like the ideas and I hope they get placed into the game.
Oh and P.S if a admin likes this idea but not the grammer errors, fill free to change it up ..but dont forget to put my name there =)

1. howcome Arazu a that suppose to be a Galante ship only has 40m^3 of drone space? will we see any any changes to it in the future or will it stay that way ....
2. with new cove-ops Cyno fields, all the cove-ops frigs gotten an extra high slot why didnt the the force recons ships get one ? dps on those is crapy as is to sacrifice an additional high slot for a cyno mod. not to mention they are already paper thin. ~*< Proud Member of BRUCE >*~ |

Ok I've got a few questions for the live blog.
First regarding the Ambulation (I will never call it Walking in Stations on priciple) Demo: How is the Ambulation demo going to work? How many people at a time? How long will we get? Do we get to play with the avatar creation tools?
Second regarding other fanfest goodness: Will there be wenches? Wenches and mead? Do Roxxor take requests? If so I'd like them to attempt The Tempest by Pendulum, failing that Propane Nightmare would do I suppose.

When can we expect Tech 3 to be introduced to the game and will this result in all the tech 2 BPO's being available on the open market from NPC corporations?
Also will there ever be a consideration for reverse engineering BPO's from successful inventions? (i'm not saying this would be easy or cheap, but it would be nice to be able to pour ridiculous amounts of isk into research and be able to eventually produce BPO's for the purposes of manufacturing.

I was wondering if you were going to expand on the Battle cruser group of ships? It would be cool if there was a BC Black ops ship and maby eve BC vesion of every other type of ship just make Them T3 ships. I would like to see more variaty in the Destroyers also maby have at least two types for each race. Another thing I was wondering why Dose the Amarr Race not have any Missle boats Like the other Races It kind of leaves them at a disadvantage. the closest thing to one is the Command ship. should have at least 3 launcher hard points on a cruser and a BattleCruser. well thats it from me for now.

Will there be any updates to celestial graphics in this next release. Things like the background sky, and moons and planets. Those graphics look pretty dated at the moment.

Edited by: DNSBLACK on 30/10/2008 20:14:11 The PVP tourny runs during fanfest why didnt they run it after hours. I dont want to miss any of the seminars and yet i would like to play in the tourny. Can we adjust the times so the pre-lims can be played after hours and the finals played on the stage during the final day.
