i say no
boarding ships in EVE
dust is meant for interaction with eve AND vice versa
i send my troops in an enemy ship, what can the guy inside the enmy ship do to prevent destruction of his ship? get outside his cloning pod and fight through the ships corridors? call in mercs to fight for him inside his ship? what if the mercs really suck...
it's like orbital bombardment without orbital defence batteries, eve players would keep on killing mercs withoout them being able to retaliate. and besides, no game of dust will be fast enough to win on the inside of the ship while it gets blasted by an enemy fleet, you'd just be sending people to get blown up with the ship.
and my final point, what about TiDi? yes that's right you forgot time dilation, an important mechanic of eve that you probably don't know about and a clusterfuck to implement on dust
so, again...
NO!
oh! and i forgot. where's the point of making a game with thousands of planets when you can invade the enemy war barge and end the fighting before it even starts?
NOOOOO! |

They would be able to fight the ship that is trying to board them before the ship is close enough to launch board pods. If you can't stop the ship from damaging you enough to be boarded you'd be screwed anyways
then what's the point of boarding the ship if it's damaged and about to die?
besides fighting the boarding ship is still eve to eve only interaction only, it has to be two ways of interaction
and think about this, i'm getting boarded, yup kk no problem, i didn't want that ship anyways ( self destruct engaged, 5 minutes remaining) and booooom all those expensive protosuits and weapons, gone, and not a single thing you can do to prevent it
or "hey guys! i'm getting boarded, primary me NOW!"
really i think you should reconsider this
POS, POCOs and outpost boarding sound more feasible game mechanics wise |

the thing is, a capsuleer controls his ship through a neural interface. and there is no such weapon as neural interface jammers because if there would be the Empires (read non capsuleers) would have wiped out the capsuleers, because the capsuleers are on no-one's sides but their own and they'd rather get rid of them. and i don't think the eve community will allow that either. remember that there is a player elected council that is there to tell CCP "hey guys, that thing you did, not such a great idea, you need to reconsider" and CCP has done stuff the player base made them to undo because they weren't happy and subscriptions were dropped

and as i said it, it's still a one way interaction, mercs boards your ship, mercs versu mercs fight ensues, mercs win and take your ship, where's is the ability for the eve player to get rid of them?
who talks about smart ideas in eve, if an fc orders you to shoot someone in your fleet, you do it man.
a guy told me he was ordered by his fc to drop a bomb on one of their own carriers to kill the enemy drones attacking it.
i have shot people in my fleet because the FC said so and i have no remorse doing it, specially when they screw up |

it needs to be at the same time, not prior to boarding |
