I'm an avid tank driver but I'd like to see some maps that are indoor-only or very indoor-centric. Maybe where all the objectives are nestled deep within buildings. I used to play CS 1.6 and I liked the "corridor-shaped" maps with lots of cover and opportunity for tactical advancement. Maybe in this mode it could just be 8v8 with a very limited amount of clones to encourage conservative gameplay and teamwork. Always thought something like this could be fun for "boarding" if they ever add that. Allow capital ships to be boarded and the objectives would be the various modules on the corresponding eve ship. "Your mission is to shut down as many of the remote reps on that Archon as possible, go go go!" |

I get the feeling this game is moreso for taking control of a planet with whatever means you have available.
Actually it's been stated that High Sec will be about matchmaking and more traditional gameplay, Low will have the factional warfare etc, and Null will be where dustbunnies fight to control planets for whatever means they (or their employers) choose. There should be plenty of room in this game for "modes"
CCP has also said that in one of the first expansions there will be an arena mode, sort of a spectator blood sport thing. This would be a great avenue for crazy modes including maybe some unreal staples like that football mode they used to have? Who knows! Don't rule anything out. |

They said at launch there will be a PVE mode which will be a sort of survival mode against "rogue drones" which is a rough equivalent of maybe a zombie survival mode in other shooters. Rogue drones being the more fitting enemy lore-wise. |

Oh wow, maybe I do need to lurk some more. Thanks for the insight. I do like the "blood sport" arena idea. I could see it spawning a HUGE amount of influence on the market with place bets. 
I just wish I was space-rich in EVE so I could be the one to start a major league of competitive arena players. Major alliances couldn't afford to hire the best mercenaries because they'd be under contract to fight in the arena for the entertainment of high rollers!

I saw during one of the presentation videos a CCP guy said that all the match information like locations of kills, loadouts etc will be recorded. I wonder if we will gain the ability to "record" a match much in the way a starcraft replay is recorded, so a special viewer can be used to watch the match. A corp could go into the business of editing camera angles and creating highlight reels perhaps. I see a lot of opportunity for player-made content if CCP provides the tools. |
