Originally by: AleRiperKilt Giving the hints of a "big accident" in this dev blog and the last two chronicles I think is about time I pay my first ever visit to the Eve Gate... before something happens to it
I've visited the Eve Gate a few weeks ago - it looks totally different than it looked before The Empyrean Age:
Before After
Looks like it's about to Supernova! |

Originally by: CCP Whisper Ok, I thought I had answered the question but apparently not clearly enough: Wormholes are always 2-way. You can go through them in both directions...
...here's the internal nomenclature: K-System/K-Space : Known space from Empire to 0.0 W-System/W-Space : The unknown space that is formed by the wormhole systems K-W : A K-space to W-space bridge W-W : A W-space to W-space bridge W-K : A W-space to K-space bridge
If wormholes are ALWAYS 2-way, what is the purpose of having K-W and W-K designations when they are exactly the same thing?

The design's being worked on in response to the feedback in this thread and there is a good chance that they won't end up being the same thing. Well, they'll look the same but they'll work in a different manner. Can't say much more than that right now because...well there isn't much more than that.
Awesome, thanks for the reply. btw, I am EXTREMELY excited about this new content and I look forward it!!

Originally by: Clansworth The talk of ammo usage brings up another possible idea for the 'roaming fleet'. Industry modules, *****ble on industrial/transport ships (also Orca and Rorqual, perhaps with bonuses). These could basically be assembly lines, and 'anchor' the ship just as the rorqual, making one or two assembly lines availble, and the smaller versions (those that fit on haulers) could basically be the same as an ammunition assembly array. (tech 1 ammo and drones). A ship such as this could actually work relatively autonomously in W-Space, mining some mins with a single Modulated Deep Core Miner II, and an Ammunition Assembly Core. This would probably produce a decent amount of ammo, enough to 'fuel' a small mobile fleet. Still, the advantage is given to the Amarr, as they have no need to bring along the mobile factory to begin with.
***** is a bad word?!?

Originally by: Hoshi Where inside a system will Wormholes spawn? Will it be like current exploration sites and they will only spawn within 4 au of a planet or will it be more free form?

hmmmm, no one has yet asked about what "cataclysmic event" is going to open up wormholes all over the entire cluster! What a nasty power that is going to be released to cause such a masive change to nature!
Will stations get destroyed? Some of our gates? Moons? Planets maybe?? Fleets of ships? The very nature and balance of the 4 superpowers of EVE? That would be fun!
According to dictionary.com: ûnoun 1. any violent upheaval, esp. one of a social or political nature. 2. Physical Geography. a sudden and violent physical action producing changes in the earth's surface. 3. an extensive flood; deluge.
