This is a great idea, and puts a mechanic behind somethings I have considered.

The newbs (who are clinging on by their saliva to the window) would get some immersion in real fighting.
With this in place, we would need a UI update (noobs barely know how to join a squad, let alone a PC)

- Notification on screen while in battle/MQ anouncing - 20minutes until PC + option to join squad now
- Reminder every 5 mins (YOU HAVE BEEN SCANNED FOR PC) flashing across the top of screen + option to join squad

Less, spamming Corp mail.. add a Notifications Board to menu/MQ where battles/information is displayed for NPC's and in player Corps, Directors can edit the content displayed there to interact across Corps.
The Notification for PC's could be similar to a server DT message, along with an invite to join PC queue.

^ This would benefit all Corps. And directly show new players something outside a pub stomp in Dust514.

For the NPC raids Squad is open for NPC's 20mins deployment, to attract the attention of the NPC's a Squad invite sent to all online every 2min, along with the Notification above, if the squad is not full 5min before deployment, it becomes Public in Squad Finder to fill the team, and will not deploy with at least 12 players have joined (or it fills?). The block here is, there are only two possible squad leaders - CCP giving roles to a player in NPC corp - Scotty (Creates a squad, lead is not passed until squad is full and goes to highest SP total, though Scotty needs to deploy the squad) . If I could trust Scotty that would be fine but I am not sure he knows the game well enough to open a squad spam invites and deploy a PC.

(Thanks to lags, resetting is needed before PC, this should also display in the Notification)

Idea's like this are worth looking into when you get back.. CCP!!!

Am not a fan of this idea. He said NPC Corps... I'm a huge fan of this idea... Yes, he said NPC corps, and the result of a rediculous tax on NPC corps is that anyone with any knowledge will create their own one man corp as a tax shelter so they immediately get a 15% boost in their earnings, thats what deezy is referring to.

My point is they would decide to make their own corp for zero tax and end up sitting all alone in there never participating in anything.

Jotun Izalaru Goonfeet 261	Posted - 2015.08.11 20:30:00 - [13] - Quote no joke i was really drunk when i posted this i'm surprised anyone took it seriously my line of thought is that taxes will encourage new players to find ways out of NPC corps and i don't see how them just joining a one man corp is actually worse than hanging out in an NPC corp. it's not like NPC corps are vast bastions of social activity and participation. if it's that big a concern just raise the bar to form a corp.
Jotun Izalaru Goonfeet 262	Posted - 2015.08.12 07:30:00 - [14] - Quote and introducing them to PC so early will give them an idea of what they can work towards. plus keep scrub corps with ten guys from holding districts if they don't have the chaff to keep them. i'd crack up if somebody lost a district to the sebiestor field sappers.
Thor Odinson42 Negative-Feedback 6	Posted - 2015.08.12 07:57:00 - [15] - Quote I like it But I had an idea about raiding when it was thought raiding would be a quicker spin up of a battle. If the land holder no showed a lot, all their districts would be open to public raiding. Public raids would be open under other contracts.
