yeah but you also do not have to enlist in a faction for faction warfare…
a really cool improvement would be, if it was mandatory to choose a side. like, minmatar can shoot every amarr in space and vice versa. if that was just a normal mechanic. you choose your side and can’t go to places of the other side without being hunted.
then there might be something that allows you to go there incognito… no idea, like a plastic surgery or something… there would be tons of possibilities for spies etc.
that would also mean, there should be neutral spaces, that do not belong to a faction. well that would be nullsec. and there are player driven factions that rule.
NP, crossing swords on the forum is the last true PVP! Long live the nutjobs who have such a passion for the game that we have been here so long! No matter what side of the 8 sided coin you are on.
Better for me is when the game fails so badly, that it falls in numbers like before I started and becomes a nitch game again who draws in the demographics that they used to brag about.
Seen some great names drop from the forums. Ive even tempted dropping off myself. Hadnt been able to play, but still do an admin asst role with usia. Finally got a new job.
