I really like the idea , yet I find it too OP. How about a max of 50% goes to hanger, the rest can be picked up, it could also be connected to successful defences of the Outpost, so lets say first successful defence gets you 15% upto 50% loot with 5 consecutive defences, ofc if you fail it goes back to 15%, well something along those lines.

Yes, my point is to make defenders work a little more for their stuff , not just handed to them if no one attacks.

-1. If you cant be bothered to undock your terminal at the end of a sap to collect the loot, then it should be fair game for whoever gets to it first.

Although I would be excited about some more variety in defending saps. Babysitting a sap for an hour blows, but I think with the spark teleport nerf, corps really will not want any more than 1 outpost to have to defend. Plus sap ninja ops are fun to do for smaller corps who need the loot but cant stand toe to toe with the big dogs.

Agree partially.

Keep the current system, but if none loots the SAP stuff for like 30 min, move it automatically to corp hangar.

Lots of good arguments against Passive Income. With current population it could be a windfall, but with 1000s or players that loot keeps spreading thinner.

I actually for increasing and varying loot, such as adding plasma. But that would be balancing with population.

I doubt we'll see passive income, but it has its conflict generation qualities.

i like burials idea about mining towers ads more content to the game & more pvp targets not just the towers them self but make it so that you have to go out & collect the ore with a hauler.

PS. I got my Highways & stopped playing b4 they came in & have never used them! ...... Irony much ?

This is quite funny.

Should of made this thread 5 months ago and watch how bad it would of gotten a -1. 

I'm not quite sure about passive income in general, specially how much hoarding we get from most Vets.

If you guys are referring to the fact Biker Gang controls pretty much every outpost at this moment then sure I can see the "humor" in the timing as opposed to 5 months ago.

Maybe if you read OP again you'll see that this should NEVER be introduced with current SpT system. Once SpT is gone, so will monopolization of Betas.

I think Biker Gang may be able to retain about 1/3 of Beta outposts under current politics, but not more. You'll get your cut. And with Passive Income there is more incentive.

Real question is Passive Income (yes/no)?

If you're not for Passive, you're not. It's not Political.

But hey, imagine the bickering within alliance when Passive is introduced. Will greed tear an Alliance apart? Will greed lead to loyal corp members quitting or betraying a corp with leaders who don;t share? Think about the added dynamic.

In advance of the inevitable with SpT

We don't want those outposts anyway!

Oh. I did not know. I guess its an elaborate strategy or trap. Very impressive!

Not sure about that anymore.
