Boarding and capturing or destroying player ships is something that has been discussed before and I'm pretty sure the consensus is that there's no way to do it that's fun for either party involved. The potential impacts of DUST on EVE are a bit more subtle, but no less real.
For example, if you want to get back at a player your corp can attack some planets in whatever system where he lives, shutting down local. Maybe cause problems for occupants similar to Incursion penalties. The bounty system will probably even be accessible to DUST players. |

I disagree with this point. EvE players can simply do what EvE players are meant to do and that is put up contracts. Don't want your ship raided by the mercs you just back stabbed? Simple contract more mercs to defend your ship. Don't want to be pirated and hijacked by mercs from dust? Simple contract more mercs to defend your ship. It's easy as that. Flagratus is 100% right and we should be able to do all of that. There is no valid reason why we can't when they can easily make balanced defenses against it.
Put up a contract to have someone defend your ship? They take your ship.
Think of it this way. Imagine if EVE players could blow up your warbarge. It's just sitting there in orbit around some planet, after all. What if they just came along and blew it up? Every piece of equipment, all your suits and vehicles and weapons, all gone in an instant while you weren't even online. Does that sound like a fun way to play? |

The way contracts work in EVE, you put out a price, the money is automatically debited from your wallet, and terms are set. When those terms are met the money is automatically placed in the wallet of the person who accepted the contract and fulfilled the terms. Capsuleers won't have the option to refuse to pay you after a contract is completed. If you take a contract to destroy some installation on a planet, you'll get your payment when you destroy the installation.
That said, contract scams are a thing in New Eden. Read the fine print. Make sure you know what you're agreeing to. |
