I hope it comes soon (tm).

It's a step in the right direction, but it's still not the change that the game needs to make it more in-line with the empire building aspect of a sandbox. We already have outposts, this only makes having one a bit more lucrative. But really, who cares at this point? Beta corps have already stockpiled enough for it to not really matter if they can get more quicker. The problem is that there's not enough conflict to deplete a lot of the beta corps supplies and there's little reason for them now to go fight over something that will help them bloat more.

We need empire building, still. People need a way to build a home. Not just re-occupy some preconceived dot on the map.

im just curios how they solve the mission running thing after intrusion 2.0. It doesn't look like we will get revamped lvl3-4 missions very soon. (-> random mission generator, anyone?)

and how they change the intrusion overview tab in corporation profile. There are many Details about the presentation and interface i want to know - not so much about intrusion mechanics. I like to know whats going on, even if i never participate. Ingame newsletter review about PvP battles... some... immersion please.

ontop of that:
with that update, i hope that those sleep-in or trojan Lithus tactics like we have seen again tonight, to capture someones outpost, are history with docking rights.

last but not least:
i hope that this patch will also finally turn squads into squads, and not alliances...

I'm looking forward to Intrusion 3.0  as we all know what problems 2.0 will cause and it hasn't even came out yet.

Nothing really exciting, won't attract new players, POS would.
Might attract some old vets, but more vets would come back for POS+More landmass+New kind of bots, some real new stuff and not revamped existing ones.
i2.0 still a step in the right direction and will most likely give few weeks of fun for all beta corps (or frustration).

If there are no implemented Alliance features, which accomodates Corps working towards the same objectives, this hyped I. 2.0 is not much of a use. Yes sure it will force the holding corp to be on guard on the outpost 24/7, to monitor the SAP´s. Alone this circumstance will make it impossible for a single corp to achieve by themself. At least at the stage of the playerbase, we have in perpetuum at the moment.

As already mentioned on the player panel, way back,
to name but a few, we need features such as:

• Corps marked as allied, can defend the same outposts,

• Fee and upkeep for an alliance,

• Shared production rights on OP for allied corps. The .cvs export is tedious and almost useless.

• maybe a visual effect on the overview in form of an Icon, showing alliance members

• filter of alliance members out of the overview

makes so much sense. so if you rent an appartement, the landlord can allow any stranger to sleep in your bed because its not really yours? where the hell do you life?

Line, your post deosn't make any sense to me.
You sound like docking rights are "only owner corp and notone else" or "completely open".

for me beeing able to manage docking rights means i have either a black or whitelist feature for my outpost.

Yea you can edit the list of the allowed corps, unfortunately that could also mean you might have to do ALOT of micro-managing of this list in order to keep ALL the corps out, hopefully its JUST a whitelist as that would be the shorter list then having to add every corp in-game to the blacklist.

The option to close an outpost will be based on standings, not a separate list. It will be a simple slider which will tell, for example, that you will only let in corporations that you have set to neutral or higher. And you have done that already I guess, so it won't need too much extra management.

There will be a new devblog with the details soon, probably early next week.

What if you don't want to let neutral corporations dock into your outposts? That would be an awful lot of management work.

This still does not compensate any alliance features, of corps fighting and supporting each other, producing and guarding the same Outpost which they are working in combined forces for, but either get nothing in return, even if the corps are allied and are a major factor of getting / holding an outpost and securing an area, they will never benefit from it, such as cost of production, buffs and such likes.

Even now it is a tedious process converting those .cvs for acccounting, at least in Excel we have some features like basic filtering methods, periodical accounting of costs, etc...

To be honset, the I2.0 system scares me, at least with the information I have so far from it, that it is totally half cooked. It certainly goes into the right direction, but its far from beeing called an improvement. But hopefully the DEV´s will proof me wrong.

I am looking forward to I2.0.. It should add some interesting dynamics to beta. The best of which is the people who take the outposts will have to have a presence on the island.:D

I think it will also add a very nice dynamic for the small corps. Nothing better then running in and taking saps to reduce the indy capabilities of the owner! Guerrilla tactics ftw!
