That's their own problem and part of that risk for their reward.

I don't think this game is ready for war decs yet. No one wants to PvP on Beta as it is, aside intrusions. I think this would just stand to further push people out of the game.

In a large enough playerbase, this would be great. But right now, it's just not a good time for it.

I've played other games heavily in the markets and seeing who my competition is was key to a lot of my success. When you know your targets you can see their markets and thus deduce the production chains they use and trends of trading/timing. With a little wizardry you can cut their supplies by pricing competitively (or ruthlessly...) on the markets. It's not about who has more money, although it does play a minor role, it's about constant pressure and making sales before the other person does. Everyone has their own thresholds and profit margins and a big part of taking someone down is finding their patterns. It's practically impossible to do so on an anonymous market. I don't really want to explain my market tactics all over the public board, but I can tell you, knowing your targets makes taking down their production chains and causing trouble a lot easier.

I think being able to see who's posting what on the market would actually make a big difference, for competitors anyway. Knowing your opponents is a big part of market warfare. To be able to take down someone on the markets you need to see where they're production is at and how they're pricing and moving goods. To say that you don't need to see who you're buying from is like saying you don't need to see who you're killing in PvP, just fire blindly in to your targets and hope you take down the threat. It's not very effective, especially if you want to make a lasting effect and devise plans to counteract certain parties and trends.

Adding the agents Corp as a column to the friends list would be great as well. 

Im referring to the outposts on the islands that were just implemented. They just stand to further make the community pulled apart. There's nothing special about the new alpha islands aside a couple bigger spawns and ore fields. They're mostly barren and you can wander them for quite some time without seeing NPC's and even more, players. In the future, sure, it could be seen as prudent as the player base grew, but right now it was highly uncalled for. There's far too much land for what little we can do with it. Outposts are already everywhere with everything packed in each one, they're pointless, which is why end game intrustions are pointless as people have noted. Who cares who owns them, no one wants them because there's too many and none of them are special aside having level 3 facilities on beta. Sure, those facilities are something different but obviously not terribly important as there's not really anyone calling for easier access or lack of access in spite of one corp holding mostly all of them.

I'm somewhat of an audiophile myself as I love to listen to music with as much volume/clarity as possible. The soundcard you chose is probably one of, if not, the best you can get on the market as it's built for not only great sound but gaming latency as well. We're talking though in realms of mainstream parts as I'm sure there's better studio quality hardware... but we wont go into that as those bits range in the thousands and aren't really feasible for home use.

The headset I use when I want to game/chat is the Medusa with external amp. The sound quality is quite decent and it's also in 5.1 surround with a detachable mic. Here's a link to a similar product by the parent company:

That link isn't quite what I have, but it's one I used to have. Their other version has the detachable mic and also an external amp. I think I paid close to $200 for the kit. Here's a pic of a similar version to what I actually have,(without the detachable mic) but I'm not sure if it's still availale as I haven't looked around:

For plain listening to music I have another headset which cost me close to $400. It's a Sennheiser set and they're simply amazing. I've tried a lot of different brands, headsets, earphones, buds, whatever... and Sennheiser have probably the best quality I've ever heard. I can't remember the series I have as I made this purchase years ago and I have no documents left for it. But I can certainly say that if they ever break I'd get another pair of Sennheisers. The sound is like having a stereo sitting on your ears, you wouldn't believe the treble and bass that comes out of them. Even when cranked extremely high the sound doesn't crack and to be honest, they can handle sound louder than you'd want that close to your ear so volume wouldn't be a problem. They are also extremely comfortable to boot.

As for speakers, the set I have is the Logitech Z5500. I did a lot of research back when I was in the market and this set had great reviews everywhere. I spent around $500 for these and they were worth every penny. I've never been able to make them crack because the volumes they reach prior to such occurrence is too loud. I've downloaded bass tests and tracks for speaker tests and these things will hurt your ears before they hurt themselves. If you want loud, full, clear sound, these will not let you down.

Hope this info helps push you in the right direction.

Soon we will start to use energy to fight you. We will bring larger of us to the field that you have no seen yet.

You only know a small net of our world.

Well, if you have an indy RR, just get'm to carry ammo. Most cases where you'd run out of ammo, you'd be in a larger fight and if you're in a larger fight you probably have some sort of indy RR logistics, just get them to carry some field cans and ammo. It's a bit risky I guess, but it beats having no ammo if that's an issue.

I don't think there's any problem with travel times. Find an island and stick to it. The only reason you'd travel away from home in any noticeable distance is for war really. In such a case, logistics has never been a quick and simple thing. You want to kill someone that's not in your backyard, prepare to make an effort. Especially in this game since the population is so low and the space between targets is quite noticeable. You can reach any island and outpost in this game in a decent time, the land masses really aren't that big and even with the latest xpac, there isn't much of it either. The only reason things seem boring and tedious now is because there's not enough players to fill in the gaps so everything seems like a boring ghost town.
