you forgot an option to increase demob strength/range at the cost of headslots.

IMO that will bring some more diversity in fittings. I mean, currently you have to fit plates tto get demob resistance, and you have to fit lwf to be fast, and that is on each combat bot (except shields). I'm not even talking about speed nexus on kains, and that combats are often don't put demob on because it's mostly useless.

Range Extenders increase range of Demobs, and I agree there should be a Demob tuner too for strength

I agree in principle that the speed between classes isn’t enough.

My main issue isn’t with the base speeds however but is with plates. For some reason they give you more armor AND a demob resistance and in my opinion that is completely the wrong way around. Why are we rewarding people twice? Adding plates should make you MORE at risk from demobs.

I suggest giving a base resistance to demob for all Mechs and Bots with assaults able to fit a frame and still be mainly demob resistant and other mechs and bots having varying degrees of Impact. Adding plates would make you less demob resistant meaning that you can choose a better tank but have the risk of getting pinned down because of that. This would make kiting with long range fits more viable, boost greens who don’t use plates as much and overall reduce tanks making smaller bots and mechs a more viable alternative.

By stations do you mean the proposed Beta2 main terminals?

Well that would be awesome but I actually meant in the outposts or just a couple if field terminals.

I was asking because the outposts already have the random assignments.

The whole idea of having low-sec analogue is fine, but do we really need to change current islands? Why don't just add new ones for that?

I agree, I just think that even the smallest dev thing takes so long I was looking for a quick option:-)

Don't like probes getting killed?  Stop putting them up.  Because if your stupid enough to put 40 million Nic worth of probes out a day we are obliged to kill them every time.

Let me start off by saying your statement on wanting fights Line is a lie.  This system doesn't promote Pvp it promotes laziness.  And the system your suggesting will decrease Pvp.  In fact it'll probably kill ALL beta Pvp.  Because you want to be able to fight for a station in your window of game play, one where the enemy may be at work or sleeping.  Since I'm going to assume you love what's happening to Dom I'll use puppets to explain in.  CORP A (DOY) wants to ally with the entire server and bring 20 people during a time to defend station against CORP B (PHM) which is either asleep or at work.  So CORP A (DOY) doesn't have to really try to own a station or defend but when there's no enemies around.  Your encouraging mass station owning and effortless station owning. 

Look at Gamma and tell me how fun alarm clocking to hit stations is?  It's not.

I undock every time I'm in game. Thing is, that no one comes at that time.

What you are proposing wont change that. It will only let you know when and where a fight may happen which is what we have today.

It sounds like what you are proposing is a notification on when you can let less active players in your corp know to log in and lets everyone know to be in the same place at the same time. What fun is *** like that. I like having to jump from Kraz to Hok to catch players running around.

Now ask yourself if we here in the PoE had stations and knew when to batphone everyone. You could ally the rest of the server and still not have enough people. We need to get away from exactly this.
