The eve universe isnt all that big.
Empire space is actually small, its overpopulated and we really need more empire regions/low sec empire.

Yeah. How about all the Empire's declare war on the 0.0 inhabitants and do a land grab (or space grab, I guess) and take over a bunch of the 0.0 systems and turn them into .5 sec systems. It's not like players are using any of that space anyways.

The amount of time it takes to travel in EVE sucks the fun right out of the game  .
I think this is probably the reason I'm playing less and less these days, I log on to EVE after work and get bored with the timesink spent getting somewhere,never mind back again.
Does anyone else feel the same?
That is why I wrote the "EvE needs jump gates now" thread. I'm kind of feeling unhappy about CCP leaving some features out of the game that they implied were going to be in the game. Jumpdrive skills have been in game since day 1! Stuff like reverse engineering and so on has been all but abandoned at least it seems that way. There is a term used for that in the USA, it is called BAIT AND SWITCH. You imply the customer will get something and deliver another product.

Come to the Solitude Region!
There is plenty of Empire Space to the 'Southwest' to settle in. The reason the core systems are crowded is because of the highways. Never liked them myself. I remember living near the 'border' of two regions and having to hop across and back to check the market. Now you can check 5 regions in no time. Bah!

Are Formal Contracts in yet?

No, the EVE world is too small. If anything travel time should be longer to encourage domestic activity instead of the Yulai/hub craziness.
Agreed.

Travel time is not nearly as long as it should be, imo.
Ok that is fair. When we get Jumpships you can use a shuttle or whatever ship you like. If that is right for you no one will stop you.

I dis'a'greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, travelling is way to quick as it is, specially with ccp upping the speeds of all ships from 2 au to 3 au, and now up to 6 au for certain ship types, add that to instas that anyone can make with a frig+mwd+20mins, you get the picture....

Great so when jumpdrives are in place you can drive. No one will stop you. |

Travel is too slow????? what are you frikkin crazy?!?!? you can WARP at six ASTRONOMICAL UNITS PER SECOND!!! That is nearly THREE THOUSAND times the speed of light!! An astronomical unit is approximately ninety two MILLION miles. There is no way you can think that is slow. if people could fly at 6 AU per second in the real world, We'd have half the Milky Way colonized by now.
Think about this....
Mars is about 1/3 of an AU away from Earth at its closest yet it still takes eight to ten MONTHS to fly a probe to it. At EVE speeds, we could go there and back dozens of times in ONE SECOND. Eve travel is not slow.... don't even try to think it is.

Yay for longer travel times.
But please dear god, give us something to do WHILE we're in warp, or approaching gates.

if you don't wake up, i'll have to stop kissing you. all that flailing has made you sleepy. you rest while i untie you. stay here until they find you. My hand made mannequin. i won't let them get you. they'll know you're mine by the fingerprints on your throat. isn't she lovely? isn't she wonderful? like the *****s that we are, swatting flies from the wounds we design. |

Like goof off with the market?
Anyway, travel times are, if anything, too short. With the right instajumps, you can get a fleet of battleships just about anywhere in EVE in an hour.
In a frigate you don't even need instas... In one night I took a Crow from southern Querious to 6 different Empire regions to buy some junk, then out through the top and around the east to Curse to play around, then home.

Thats just it Alexis its sooo passive..... as exciting as a loading screen but longer.
I would like to see some possibility of interaction in warp or whatever, or shorter time in warp so I can be doing something keeping me immersed ingame.
Thanks for the input guys and gals, I didnt think it would be so emotive a question

Not longer travel time, but bigger universe maybe, it's wrong to be able to go from one side of the galaxy to another in 3 - 4 hours. Wars would probably be much more interesting if there were a need of structured logistic for instance. Trading could only be more interesting, if it was just not an option to have ONE centralized marketplace.

Yes, I agree, travel time is way to short. I say they remove all the jumpgates and warpdrives.
Travel time should be just like in real life! We'll leave in MWD's and stuff and make the speed of all ships maybe twice as fast. If you want to go to the next system, then aim for the star in the distance and fly for a few years. Set a long skill to train while you get there. That would be perfect! Oh, increase all the skill training times by about 5 to 10 times so that there's no annoying changing skills while you're traveling.
