Something needs to be done. The warzone has gotten very static. The one faction selected thing alone might loosen up the deadlock, allowing the two underdog factions to actually keep a district long enough to attack a second one.
I was thinking about the locking thing yesterday. Two ideas:
1) locking could be done by selecting a district to attack or defend and bidding LP on it somehow. This would need to be implemented with team deploy, I think, with everyone in the team contributing the same amount to the pool. If you win the battle the district is safe for a period of time. If you lose, well, the district is not safe and you've lost your LP.
2) it could be part of an expanded link with Eve, where FW corps / pilots spend isk or LP to either create a battle like in idea 1, or simply straight up lock it if it's a friendly district. The other side could then overcome the lock by spending even more.
And to keep the warzone from getting completely deadlocked make it so that if you control 90% of the districts in the warzone, locking isn't available to you or something like that. |

Who cares? Everyone should care. This is our only connection to Eve right now. If the warzone control percentage never does and can not change then the two games may as well not be connected. Eve FW players have certainly stopped giving a damn about us. We're not a dynamic element in their world, we're a frozen oddity. |

Farming in itself really isn't a problem. In EVE farmers create waves of momentum in FW. Winning factions get more LP for their efforts, but this is balanced out by farmers flooding the player market with the LP items which crash the prices. Eventually it becomes more profitable to play for the other side, and the farmers switch.
I don't think that exact method would work in Dust though because it relies on the ability to seize objectives without fighting. |

There's already gear in the LP store that is better than what you can buy for pure isk, at least at the prototype level.
ie: proto weapons with advanced level fitting costs (that's a huge benefit) and stronger equipment, like a nanite injector that repairs 100% of your armor. |
