One thing that could make Eve and Dust players happy, is salvaging the wreckage of ships in outer space.
After an Eve battle, carriers could be wiped out, titans wrecked or crashed, and so on so forth. Now, an Eve corporation that took heavy losses after loosing some of its important weaponry, could want their stuff back and the chance to sell it, recycle for money, or repair and reinstall. How do they get it back? Dust players. Dust players would be dropped onto a large broken ship, fight with another corporation or privateers (fancy word for pirates) for control of it. Then after a success, the ship will be given back to "insert Eve company here" or lost and the wreckage goes to "opposing eve company or privateers". This means that Dust players get something more to shoot on, more isk in their pocket, and Eve players get another chance at getting their prized stuff back!
Win Win! WWADYA SAY CCP!?
Even CEOpyrex has an idea like this! Check it!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIlrppvK6Ww says it in here.

You probe down an archaeology site, hire mercs, "fit them" into a special "merc torpedo" module or something. Activate your hacking module to bring down the shields and fire your mercs into the wreck. Mercs would fight drones and recover some artifact thing of high value. Mercs could accidentally trip off alarms which would send a reinforcement wing of rats to attack your ship. Maybe the Eve pilot could destroy certain modules on the enemy ship that would help the DUST mercs somehow.
If this goes down in highsec, you can compete for a site with your own set of mercs. The EVE ships can't shoot each other unless flagged, but their competing merc teams can fight each other and the drones onboard. The victorious team retrieves the loot, and the EVE pilot pays out his squad.
It might even be possible to ransome merc clones somehow.
That would be an interesting way to PvE with both games. +1 The high value item being key to the post, current data sites seem low on these, Risk=ISK yes but there seems to be a lack of Isk return for Risk. PVE in any manner in Dust is definitely welcome.
I have said this on other threads, but I want to spread the word so this can be implemented or thought about...Here's how it goes
In Eve, there are massive battles of epic proportions, colossal warships get destroyed in the process. This is where Dust plays in. A large battle has been carried out, thousands of ships die, and two titans are crippled and lay still, a quiet knelling in the darkness of space. An Eve carrier arrives nearby but at a distance, and launches several pods to a couple of the larger ships, and the two titans. The pods are filled with soldiers, ready to reclaim these titans are refit them with a warp drive that will bring them to a safe stargate for warping into a haven where a corporation can salvage the wreck and remake ships out of them for a much cheaper price than insurance or buying it anew. Another Eve ship comes by and pelts the wreckage with its own pods. This is where the fun begins. Dust and Eve players, fighting over scraps of wreckage for isk, loot, and ships. Isk won't be as high, but loot will be bountiful for Eve and Dust players, and of course, winner gets the scraps!
The match ends with the ship glowing slightly in a certain section, then warping off into somewhere else....
WWWWADDYA THINK, CCP, MERCS, CAPSULEERS, ETC!? |
