I really hate the pvp mechanism like 5* scan and to catch ships as a solo player.It is very stupid to jump into the deadspace and then catch ships because ship will jump away whenever they want.I think you can develop a new indivisual pvp system to make the game active once again.Proving ground is a nice try but not interesting enough.I think it is the pvp mechanism that limit the activity of players.you can learn from popular main stream games.
