Can maybe 1 or 2 clones sneak in through a space elevator or something? Maybe hide with the cargo?

If we ever board a titan, I want to drive a jihad jeep right into the main reactor. I will win both EVE and Dust at the same time.

This is assuming that EVE players will allow this. The last time it was brought up, Titan boarding was opposed.

imagine the stories that could be told. So we entered this titan and battled waves of drones and clones hired to protect it. After fierce battles and almost being cloned out we took over the titan and had some pilots come to bring the ship back to corp HQs. Our corp now holds a titan in it's assets with -insert asset that was in the titan itself-.
It'd be nice if we could do that with vehicles now in dust. Where after hacking them we can recall them and have them added to our asset. We'd also get any non-BPO assets the vehicles have on added. |

Cappies are going to have defenses on their ships. On a titan it will be hell. Fighting through a ship the size of NYC will be hell, but a cruiser would be fun

I think OP is really asking if there will be an in-game mechanic that allows for the awkward and tense moments spent in an elevator with anyone. Or perhaps, stuck between floors all night in a lumbering Titan, friendship and love can bloom.
More likely than PvE at this point, I'd guess.

If we ever get to storm the Deaths... I mean Titan, it won't be for 10+ years. And by then, they will have dreamed up many interesting things to do while on a titan that makes sense. It wouldn't be a 16 man, or even a 32 man assault. It will be 100 vs 100 or more. Hell by then I hope there is no longer a limit on how many can be involved.
A titian literally takes months to build. If DUST bunnies are ever allowed to assault the ship, it will have to take days to finalize a winning assault, with many conditions that would allow the defenders to just win. Like closing bulk head doors and venting the enemies into space. So the first key point to assault in less than 5 minutes would be some local control lock out. The attackers would have to really know what they are doing and bring some very specific tools and fittings. And all this would have to physically be transported into touch range of the titian by an EVE pilot. There would have to be so many moving parts that the defender could pretty much auto win 80% of the time without any human defending DUST mercs. Drones are a *****. |

Let's not forget titans are roughly 13k long. So storming one would be like sieging a city. It should take a huge effort to attack one and and even greater effort to win an attack.

It would be hella epic though. It would be really hard. The defenses in it will be immense.

Meh, titans are too hot to assault in terms of player endearment, that's like someone hijacking your suit midfight. I'd say something like POS's. send a squad in at a critical point(right before a siege, when a titan is hiding inside the bubble, when you ID a titan building thing-place-thing) to knock out defenses(offline guns/shield bubble) would be much more fun and involved for both sides.
If you hear the words "WORTH IT!" look about, something hilarious just happened.

Ya, it would be funny as hell to know when a titian will be fully operational and right before that, you send your merc in to try and hijack it. The security would be super tight though, as I'm sure if that was implemented, they would pay the best mercs a huge retainer to be on call for the hours it is vulnerable. |

Imagine when a titan explodes because of a merc. $4000 lost to a f2p game. lol

I want to do things that affect eve, like stopping titans from being built(since, as far as info I've seen, these things take time, and absolutely massive amounts of material.). by getting right into their building place-thing-places and taking the valuable bits and minerals and such.
I was thinking something like stealth ops(can only be launched with stealth capable ships, and you have to either disable the bubble, or have the code) loads of cameras and heavy defense drones, with bulkhead doors that take forever and a day to hack(even on a minnie scout with codebreakers) if they detect you, the whole thing goes into lockdown, the corp gets a notification, and any standing contracts they have become available instantly(for their retainer and such) and you only get one squad, 60 clones absolute max(anything more and their sensors would pick you up... lore mumbo jumbo and such).
I want this to require coordination and perfection from both sides, high risk, high reward(spais get outed because the clone drop is tagged, the squad gets ridiculed for failing, possibly even losing other contracts due to news spreading faster than herpes at a hippie music festival... or massive rage because some punk dust bunnies waltzed past your security and swiped crucial materials that set you back millions/a billion(depends on how well hidden their hauler friend is and what their cargo capacity is, you know how it goes...)
