Long ago myself and other Members wondered and debated ways of boarding EvE ships. It was at the time a leap for Dust but something that we assumed would never really happen until now, I've just watched the 'EvE prophecy video, from last years CCP fanfest and in that video I swear Dust merc's board an EvE ship, now I know your more a 514 Dev but seriously is this something being considered by CCP in times to come

Because it would rob them of the ability to control their own fates and put their billions of ISK assets entirely at the mercy of a game mode they cannot affect. This would rob them of their player agency without recourse.
Boarding NPC ships is entirely within the bounds of sanity. Especially in a faction war context.
but dust cannot be allowed to affect EVE without the EVE players being able to retaliate in kind, just like it was deemed unfair for EVE players to casually and nonstop bombard and kill all the dust mercs on both sides for the funzies.
now hold up, why? thats my question. Why were you boarded? Why were you in a section of space where this happened? the answer is Factional Warfare i guess, flying an MCC round new eden popping off boarding torpedo's would be insane but having MCC's in factional space that move from planet to planet when filled with enough mercs or on a set timer like PC would be cool, they can be attacked and destroyed so you need a fleet, they would be NPC controlled so there's no pilot error. Right now theres a restart of Gal/Cal FW, and more each day are rallying to the FW in both Dust and EvE. Everything outside of a hub in EvE is dangerous. When your locked up in a Navy drake being torn apart you don't control that situation either but i'm not saying insert it into all of EvE space, Just in parts were EvE and Dust are already merging like FW.
What do you think Breakin?

NPC ships only. If when a system is about to flip we are allowed to board an enemy flag/cap ship to sabotage it, that is one thing. That helps the friendlies. If we go in and disable the doomsday on the enemy NPC system ops command ship that's gravy. If we're boarding someone's machariel That's another story. Not only that, capsuleers control 100% of shipboard systems by reflex. There's no way to simulate the ship itself as a living entity trying to murder you. Plus you can't have clone backup. You only get ONE shot. And that one shot will have godlike HMG turrets and sh*t popping out of the walls. This is feasible for NPC ships. We can affect the outcome without no-recourse buttf***ing EVE players who pay a sub to play Spreadsheets in space. But boarding player ships? God no. That's CCP'S golden goose and there will never be anything allowed to bring it anywhere near the slaughterhouse.
wow thats actually freaking awesome, boarding NPC ships, for now we can buy/fly all faction ships so instead of having a new race what about the Jovan empire returning to get dust stomped?

yea that sucks, i watched EvE seeding the universe and how they originally wanted floating districts on gas giant planets but the memory of PS3 restricted all those plans
