I share your vision of 64v64, I just don't want it to be instanced. The instanced Instant Battles, Merc Battles and Corp Battles are all BS if you ask me. Is that how PC is going to be handled? Am I going to have to ask your permission to attack your District by issuing a battle challenge? Am I not going to be able to sneak attack your District because the battle needs to be instanced and doesn't develop free form?
I think you are really missing what I am getting at. My major problem is with the instancing, Dust was supposed to be new and unlike the rest and so far all I have really seen is Sci-Fi flavored CoD that requires minor skills at math. Open World Sandbox play would set Dust apart from the rest and is already a New Eden precident.
We don't have spaceships yet... |

You do realize all that one would have to do to install an instant army anywhere is to turn on a fluid router for al lthe clones in the command stucture and its just as easy to move them by kill switching and savlaging all the left over mass.
Its the tatical nature of the clones, One battle they can be in one side of the galaxy the next they;'re downloading into new bodies on the other end.
To us the battles are instant, to the people having to shuffle our clones around its a logistics nightmare.
Now in entire thoery and how server handels everything.
By definition CP matches are not instanced. Similar to how current corp battles are also not instanced.
In order to have an 'instance' you must have a copy of a location made available to two different playgroups. Eve online does not do this typically the only thing really isntanced in the game is captain's quaters/hangerbay. Dust 514 is only doing this for high sec matches and in the future possibly a training room.
There is nothing stopping a massive fleet of ships flying in overhead and with enough warp points to maybe start dropping shells on our heads. There may come a day where they can do this WITHOUT a beacon. |
