Interplanetary Travel and Space Pirates?

[Dion Red Strike]

I have been thinking about this a bit, and wanted to speculate a bit.

If we have 'pirate' players (pvp) in space, how many pilots will be transporters, and how many will be pirates?

On that line of thought, how cheap/expensive will it become to transport from planet to planet? Will there be 'safe' routes that cost more?

If we have multiple planets, these new planets will probably have hangars. These new hangars will need ships (unless the purchaser of said hangar already has a ship). Which means my odenfield ventricle systems will finally be worth something again -.-

If CND is the only way to get to and from planets, CND will become VERY popular for shopping, trading, etc. Personally, I think this should be the way. CND is the 'hub' if you will to and from our system.

I can't wait till more info comes on these developements.

this is how conspiracies start. thats been there as long as i remember, maybe Neverdie can say exactly how long. Its a vision of what might be, and frankly a fairly optimistic, far fetched one at that. I really dont see space travel developing in this way, or at least hope they dont chase such a dream. they havnt even developed the existing astroid to its potential yet. they havnt even developed the planet to its potential yet...

leave the space piracy to Eve i say.

Hally... when you're such a great income source from MA, you get your little rewards... say... fame and fortune... important information concerning EU's economy... fame and fortune... and such.

EU is dynamic.

I sure hope NeverDie gives us some confirmation on the forums soon, or we are left wanting for more and more info

MA are trying to do "Elite", with "Battle Cruiser 3000AD" thrown in?

I look froward to it. (Assuming it's not as out of date as Elite is today, or as bug ridden as BC2000AD was in its day.)

Well players of EU allways try to implemt freatures of other games into EU.

I guess EU is in the end going to be a hub where features from all other games are combiend in one.
