Am I the only one that facedesked when reading "rogue MTACs" suggested?

For those that don't know, MTACs are powered armour (think Starship Troopers the book, MAX units in PlanetSide, the "forklift" in Aliens), not automated remote devices.

While this doesn't rule out NPC MTACs as an enemy, "rogue MTAC" makes about as much sense as "rogue shuttle" or "rogue cruiser." The whole concept of rogue drones is that drones, as AI-controlled remote DRONES, can go rogue and stop obeying the commands of their owner. It doesn't make sense applied elsewhere...

Actually, Rogue Drones are a failed experiment to create an AI replacement for a capsuleer and/or crew and gained a level of sentience, capable of hijacking other ships and reproducing themselves for other roles, so it only needs to be taken a logical step further to make them be capable of running armorsuits and even dropsuits.

If that doesn't suit you, a rogue MTAC could be an NPC who stole the MTAC and went rogue. The word still works.

Azura dark 31	Posted - 2012.07.17 01:05:00 - [33] - Quote pve idea 1: caves on planets wich you and a small group have to go into to and fight many drones, at certain points in the cave there are abandoned clone reserves that you could hack for spawn points, inside the center of the cave would be a largish room with many cover spots where there is a large, drone style boss your team must defeat. pve idea 2: you start at a crash site of a lava planet, there is a raised section where your team stand and lava all around you, drones attack you with no way out, there is a timer that when it hits zero the lava sinks back into the ground wich gives you time to run to the next raised platform before the lava comes back, and have to fight off more drones, maybe have a ship in the distance that you have to get to. idea was from starcraft. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ch0aXPuG_34&t=8m26s 2 random survival/horde modes for you.

The word still works. so when these Rogue ships are incountered in "EVE" i'm guessing they are attacked and destoryed. but now they can be attacked a captured by a corp. then that corp will need to have DUST 514 players come in and sweep the ship for any thing that is a danger. turning on/off certain system in that ship. if a mission is a success than the corp will own that ship. if ccp would like to pay me for this it would be fine.
Cain Hardestadt Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 0	Posted - 2012.07.17 17:43:00 - [35] - Quote PVE for Dust 514 is a great idea! I'd love to get with friends/corp and go into Epic missions that require teamwork to accomplish. It would be nice if there are some missions that could make use of the different roles, like pilots/drivers, Logi, scouts, etc. It will also be nice to have something to do solo. Sometime you just want to play Dust for 30 min, but don't want to take the time to get into a PvP match. Like having something quick to do before you have to leave the house, or what have you. Maybe something simple that could be done while playing on the PS Vita. Dust 514 on the go!

thereal herbzula Sanmatar Kelkoons Minmatar Republic 62	Posted - 2012.07.18 00:14:00 - [38] - Quote Could do something along the lines of having a cave of some sort on any game style that has objectives to secure. Inside there will be npcs you have to fight though to reach then end. Once someone reaches the end they can activate some type of object that will say....... open a "secret" way to a certain objective, maby launch some npc vehicles to help in the fight (like a tank with gunners), ughhhhh all kinds of stuff, give your team a short automatic ammo/armor/shield resupply for like 2 minutes, respawn points open up on the map that will never be there unless the thing is activated. Something like that.
Zorasth 7	Posted - 2012.07.19 01:10:00 - [39] - Quote How about some sort of VR room inside the war barge where your merc can train against various AIs. Rewards would be skillpoints only but there could be specific challenges with risk rewards for top rankers.
itza amarr2 Royal Uhlans Amarr Empire 0	Posted - 2012.07.20 01:44:00 - [40] - Quote Perhaps an interesting addition to the entire thing, since we are talking of adding bots to the game, is to add not only PVE missions with bots, but also adding combat and non combat bots to all scenarios/battles. This would add a more lifelike feel to the game, that could even provide a new market in EVE, as refugees would become a commodity seeking to leave the planet, and as they leave, more rat factions would move in. Imagine terrified civilians running scared and taking cover in the heat of battle, and just as the sniper shoots, one runs in the path of the shot. Now take the sec hit...
