What if you had PvP agents, working for rival factions. When 2 missions are spawned at the same time, they link together.
Example:
We'll say that a Pilot working for the Caldari Navy is sent to blow up a Roden Shipyards Station. Elsewhere, a Roden Shipyards Mission Runner gets the offer to head to a system (spawned equidistant from both parties) to defend the station until the Navy can arrive to reinforce it. These missions would have irregularly short timers (2-3 hours), and high rewards. Defending the shipyard until this mission is over would be success, and blowing the station would mean success for the Caldari pilot.
Thoughts?

Good idea. The logistics of it may be a bit complicated for a 1v1 mission though. I have played Warhammer Online recently and they have an interesting take on pvp styles which might work like this in eve. You could join a que for a certain faction/npc corp and when enough players have joined the que a stand alone deadspace complex could start up. This area could consist of control points to defend and take. However in EVE the typical game mechanics are set so that there is no such thing as a respawn. You die and you are dead and u have to go get another ship. So I suppose if you were to have access to your extra ships and the pay out for the mission was large enough to offset losing a few it might be worth it. The other thing to do would be fore ccp to implement a respawn mechanic for those particular mission. But I would not count on that ever happening. The other problem would be that there are SO MANY npc corps to run missions for it may take a very long time for the que to fill up enough to do these types of missions. The 1v1 would be great but the ship type would have to be severely limited. Such as frigates only and no t2 frigs for certain missions. BS's for others only. This might be a bit more bigger scale then you were thinking but its a forum so i typed what i wanted lol

Well, I didn't say 1v1. As with any mission, bring friends it'll be easy, bring no one it will be hard. Take a Merlin to a level 4 and you'll regret it. I can say yes to a cap on lower level mission say frigs for 1, cruisers 2, BC 3, and BS for lvl 4. Then anything goes for a lvl 5.
