 In EVE there is a career to be made as smuggler of goods. Especially drugs (boosters) which are produced from harvested gas and then delivered to capsuleers to give them an edge in their endeavors in space.
 
 Problem is it only sounds exciting when in reality is not. Smuggling even got worse (less fun) over time due to change of some mechanics.
 
 In DUST we only have AUR boosters to boost up our SP gains. Boring.
 
 When demi-gods of space and ground crave for more options to interact between each other, why not give them something else beside OB to be able to do it? Why not give us drugs? After all drugs are what make life in this cluster of ours bearable.
 
 CCP promised long ago it will iterate on smuggling/drugs mechanics. EVE-DUST link needs to grow. And while we all accepted that ten years old economy is too delicate to incorporate immortal soldiers at once, we obviously need some steps toward integration soon.
 
 Selling and buying drugs would be nice first step. Cool one that will benefit our bodies, souls, wallets. One that will bring sky and earth together and spread love through the cluster. It might help War Room people, too.
 
 Please CCP, give to us, your people, some good stuff.

 I think you people got the wrong forums.
 
 All i see is: In EVE this, in EVE that, No respects in EVE. blabla...
 
 Some players DONT want this to turn into a FPS version of EVE , but in something BETTER than EVE.
 
 just to make this clear....

 Never going to happen since EVE is only so great because of the RPG and Sandbox elements it has in it.

 im down i was wanting more drugs in this game anyways like have some kind of active module for added damage threshold like herion .. or added speed boost kinda like kincats but only a short bust instead of pasive and have to buy them all straight from the eve players so it would be like a real drug deal ya kno an make some kind of policia that can bust the pilots for smuggleing .... possiblitys are endless .... also I NEED MY PSYCHO

 OP meant skill boosters, not single use items that give you a short bonus to your abilities. if we were it incorporate psycho, buffouts, or even jet to the eve universe, it would be game breaking. how would any wars be fought when all of these mercs are too strung out on jet to even lift a weapon, let alone aim one? Corps would lose more clones to drug related deaths than even the most brutal war.
 
 TL;DR we dont need psycho, if anything its mentats were looking for

 i completely agree with this idea...wonder why i didnt think of it sooner.
  anyways i think the idea is great and should be consumable in battle. maybe even time limits so they dont last the whole fight. as far as dying of drug related deaths. u can stop anytime u want to...just not right now

 Not exactly game breaking. Boosters do come with drawbacks. The problem is since we're clones that are heavily augmented to the point where we can heal pretty quickly if we take damage drugs would not affect us in the least. The augmented immune system would just flush it all right back out.

 Im up for this, DUST 514 is getting a little stale.
 
 DUST 420 sounds much more entertaining... Just let me shoot down the ship loaded with snacks, or is that objective A?

 Lower your dosage slowly, they are dangerous to go cold turkey.

 Asked for more drugs, 1.4 made even existing (red) ones obsolete.

 Boosters are illegal in high sec, they also have some pretty nasty drawbacks that well... if they do go wrong you're out of an expensive ship, its a risk capital ship pilots often take because the risk of getting the drawback verse the risk of not knowing what the gains would have changed is simply too vast.
 
 However Drug manufacturing is a pre-existing career in eve online, encroaching on that would make little to no sense in hiring mercs to get the stuff. Making our stuff better is also bad as it would disenfranchise the already popular drug corps. Making an item to enhance their stuff can also back fire.
 
 I overall don't see drug manufacturing being a good first staple, maybe a staple down the road.

 Most of boosters are illegal in HS, not all. Beside boosters there is also other banned stuff, which opens place for 'smuggler' gameplay. As of now this is very boring in EVE and there is not so old topic in which one of the devs told they will iterate on it in future.
 
 So when smuggling and drug production comes to its turn to be looked upon, like bounty-hunting not long ago, CCP could do a nice thing and keep DUST in sight.
 
 I know a lot of people from, what little there is left, specialised drug producing/selling EVE corps would love to have some stuff made for us mercs.
 
 It doesn't need to happen tomorrow, but it would be nice way to boost the link. Without endangering fragile economies. Just that.
