Getting a little ahead of myself maybe...but as an expansion of ship support from EVE Online it would be cool to see orbiting Logistics ships provide a kind of space based radar enhancement when called in for support.
Way I figure is that a Logi ship in orbit would receive a request for help just like the weapon platform ships would. But instead of firing they use a specific type of scanner H module that basically everyone on the team universal vision for a minute or two. That way every single vehicle and opponent is visible on the map, whether on the respawn screen or while running around.
Maybe this is a little too reminiscent to a particular Black Ops kill streak, but I think it could be a neat expansion on the abilities of orbital support. |

I think this is a pretty good idea. My initial thought was that this sort of thing ought to be folded into the war barge, and maybe once warbarge fitting is a thing people do that could be possible. But in the interim, I do like the idea of having more than just precision strikes provided by EVE ships. And having more support abilities in general is a good idea.
To continue with this, how about EWAR ships that can provide battlefield jamming temporarily, scrambling enemy radar, disabling structures, and otherwise messing with enemies temporarily? |

Anything that further expands on the abilities of EVE Orbital Support (or EVEOS as I have now decided to call it) that really distinguishes the game from others that have similar killstreak like capabilities would be great! Especially if it starts requiring different kinds of ships in orbit with different fittings. A few other thoughts on possibilities;
EMP to disable enemy vehicles/structures
Temporary battle wide Nano-Hive that continuously resupplies everyone on the team
Increase enemy spawn times/decrease friendly spawn times
Boost hacking abilities of friendlies to crazy fast levels
Drop off of a free tank for players to use, provided the orbiting ship has one. Maybe an unhackable or otherwise enhanced one?
Turret placement in an advantageous location instead of their default starting spots
LOL maybe if an orbiting ship is hauling Marines as cargo you could even call in reinforcements of 1 death bots!
Otherwise anything that'll expand the options, as well as distinguish DUSK from the more run-of-the-mill FPS's that are out there right now. |
