rly? I didn't know)
PvP by flag like lolipop for kid... We need more scale PvP corporation vs corporation, not only players. come on, give us this opportunity.

I disagree, there is plenty of landmass. The problem is, people tend to concentrate too much in specific areas of each alpha island.

But I also think that corp wars may not be what the game really needs right now.

Without the landmass that allows corporations with little to no defensive prowess to hide implementing corporate warfare will not be a good idea, the travel paths to different islands have you across the world map in minutes

If we did this, you 1337 pvpers would *** and pillage through the fledgeling corps chasing absolutely everyone out of the game.

Instead, we will give you more islands (3 alpha, 3 beta is the plan at the moment), more NPCs, discovery - along with new, unique equipment -, and to expand the end game a bit, we might let you manage the docking rights of some of the outposts you conquer.

I can't give you exact deadlines on this, but we are going to release every bit as soon as it is out of the oven. You should see these features trickle through in about two weeks.

This is all subject to change at the moment and we wouldn't talk about it if we did not understand your concerns.

New islands aren't needed. Expand these islands with less docking/teleporting location across them.

I can see what you're trying to do but before giving more islands (Which aren't need and will just water down the already limited online players even more) I'd like to see new mechanics which cause players to be forced to interact rather than just ally.

At the moment everyone can just ally together and all reap the reward of their teamwork.

thumbs up - must be the right direction if griefers start complaining

He didn't mention what was going to be on the new islands, but maybe they are progressive.

That is, the new alpha Islands will have Epitron resources on it, but be inhabited by heavy mech NPC gangs.

While the new beta islands, lets call them gamma, have a new resource Supertron, that is needed for the next level of items.

The existing beta alliances will move to the new gamma islands, mostly, leaving less defense for the beta Islands, so that smaller corps/alliances can claim them.

For those that argue that more Alpha islands aren't needed, the players that are going to PVP on beta are already there. The game can't force the carebears into pvp, it will just make them leave the game. There's no negative impact on the game by having a certain player base that does not participate in one aspect of the game, as long as they are contributing to the game over all, like putting items into the market place, as well as ores.

More PVP island will generate more PVP, simply because any CHANGE in the balance generates PVP; Viva revolution!

I won't hold them to it, but 2 weeks sounds fantastic.
