With Eve Frontier, in my opinion, going to be very popular for Creators who like to build their own environment, why not venture off into a block chain of New Eden based on Diablo? Instead of demons and kittens, the action would be centered around pilots, choice of faction, that were aboard a carrier that had been shot down in the FW zone and crashed on a planet.
Each crash site of a ship would have valuable items that would be needed for other purposes in the game.
Lets just say it would be just like Eve Frontier, but planet based.
So twists would take place though. For example, you choose Gallente and appear at a escape pod landing site. You get the basics, ten days of food( ship fuel from Frontier) small blaster with 500 standard rounds, comm channel communicator that only allows you to communicate with a device that is in your range, hab suit, comm flares that broadcast your location to every comm device with 2x of your location that gives your own radio an extended range for ten minutes.
GPS based coordinate system. The goal would be to find other crash pilots and build up defenses and weapons, all achieved by, mining, blasting or looting.
Depending on the side you choose will determine if you are granted a bonus for your faction. Gallente crashes on Gallente planet, Gallente bonus, Gallente on Caldari, Caldari bonus. If the planet is Neutral then neither side gets a bonus but the pirates on the planet do.
The goal would be to build the off world generator that would permanently link to another planet within the 1,000 planet constellation. With the off world generator, you could travel to new cities built by creators to trade or buy stuff, sorta like Silk Road Online, but Eve Online based.
Everything would be player built and market maintained with CCP providing market items in some regions.
