I am not convinced about the intel channel idea not because of the intel it provides but because it is a more limiting mechanism. You just logged on what do you see?
I posted these ideas in one of the other faction warfare threads, what do you think?
Faction War Intel Mini map - 2D region based intel map, available through militia office, Highlight activity, shows number of plexes taken lost/missions completed and militia ships destroyed in the last hour and importantly shows current plexes/missions in progress, perhaps with some delayed intel say 5 minutes so it does not take the place of proper scouting and maybe only for the region you are in.
Regarding system occupancy
War Taxes - Controversially I would perhaps propose a tax on High sec based corps based in that factionGÇÖs space. This tax only exists where there is a significant imbalance in the systems held. The worse your faction is doing the higher the tax the more ISK is goes to that government. (Not a huge percentage tax though perhaps just 2% or 3%)
The pay-out for PVP kills and flipping systems would then be higher when a faction is losing. Seems unfair but it is to create a balance so that everyone does not just jump on the winning side and that perhaps the militia is reinforced when doing badly due to greater incentives. This would require more than just the swinging of a few systems to trigger, maybe when you have lost say 30% or so and perhaps your own rewards would drop if you faction becomes too dominant.

Don't get me wrong I support the Intel channel idea, if it's an intel channel or nothing then I would take that, I just believe that the same information can be presented in a slightly more user friendly way.
I also have problems with the star map, what we need is something much simpler and more focused almost like Dotlan but live and specific to faction warfare.
The slight delay I would prefer although maybe 5 minutes is to much, you see I enter plexes to provoke a fight or limit the ship classes that I have to fight and a few minutes delay means I can engage people within the current system without the hordes descending on me. However if I am just sitting orbitting a timer then it should leave just enough time for someone to get too me and try to stop me.
I am also normally a solo pilot a little bit of the unkown is prbably good for us.
Regarding bubbles in plexes, I have seen this idea before but I feel it may put people of rather than encourage people to PVP within them and may result in a lot of sniper camping. |

I thought I had already liked this so here is my like.
For the record I am still in favour of a more graphical interface but the principal is there. |
