.....either in Molden Heath or outside of Molden Heath???
Molden Heath is congested at the moment, and there isn't any more space to expand to without stepping on someone's toes. A lot corps are not participating or not able to participate in PC, because they can not right now. It could be a corp size issue or skill issue. But by expanding the number of planets and systems to attack, then it may spread some corps/alliances even more thin and corps may be able to participate in PC.
PC is what keeps a lot of players playing every day, imo, so you want as many to participate as possible. The only other option for a corp to participate is to join one of The Big 3 and some corps may not even fit their criteria.
I just dont like to see consolidation of players all in one or two entities. I like to see variety, it will make pc more interesting. So, please can we get some word on when you will expand PC for Dust corps??? |

Hell if you join one of tge big 3 you are really unlikly to even get a chance to play pc as most of the bigger corps will only front their A and B teams for pc battles. So realistically the only way most people will get to participate is if more districts and systens are opend up. But even when more distructs ect opeb up there is nothing stopping the big boys from pushing everyone who isnt on par out. And with no whare other than faction warfair and tbh its pretty lame at the moment . We need the return of corp battles to at least get practice fielding 16 man teams. |

I'd like CCP to give some intel on it. I just a read an article on Eve's forums where CCP posted about introducing satellites. One poster asked them to sticky it and Foxfour did it immediately. I am beginning to get a little jealous lol |

Yea, see I'd like to see more corps and alliances like yours participate in PC. The problem just boils down to everyone playing it safe and wanting to be with the best...and that just makes the strong, stronger.
I dont know how to counter that other than not allowing ringers. Because corps will only be able to hold districts that their numbers & respect will allow for. So, hopefully, they wouldnt attack your district and hold it if they physically couldnt. In that sort of system then the larger corporations (member sized) will hold an advantage to how many districts one corp can hold.
Because if it is skill-based (which many will argue should be the only factor) then there will be but so many district owners because most players are not talented shooters. But if the advantage is given to the corps that can actually field multiple timers........if a skilled corp took one of their districts, then they will still have others.
Just my theoretics |

They can fight to keep it...how do you propose a level C corp to take a district if only higher tiered corps owns all of the districts? Inve been watching a corp named Zero Atmosphere, trying relentlessly to get into PC but they just havent beaten anyone yet.
We can say that only the strong survive but if players can't play due to a limited amount of districts then, they won't play dust. And well, there goes our playerbase. |

Ouch....lol
One thing is for sure, they are getting paid from Dust though. I know players who bought that $99 package before the new merc packs. And with all of these sagas running around...I know people have spent money. Especially when the passive omega boosters were on sale. And I know some eve players who are playing free as well. |

I'm pretty sure the point of keeping the play area small is to ENSURE THAT PEOPLE STEP ON EACH OTHERS TOES.
We've had way too many corps sit back and farm ISK with districts, now there's a real risk and reward. |

I don't think CCP needs to introduce more districts until they boost up their player base. When next gen drops, I'm sure there will be plenty of districts for those that want them.

Team True Grit are watching the situation and when the time is right more may be added. At this point there is no definitive time frame for additional Districts for Planetary Conquest. :D

Districts are still getting flipped constantly.
What it looks to me what CCP is doing (which is a good idea to me) is they're waiting for when districts stop the constant flipping or Wars ending. Something like a peace era. Than they will open up more space to cause more conflict between Corps/Alliances and break bonds. |

Though I would prefer for CCP to wait much longer before they open up more space for Corps to take, there are reasons that stop the "big boys" from jumping right into the new release.
Like most people, Nobody wants to be on dust 24/7 (More than what I can say for some).
This keeps Corps from taking more districts than they feel they can take.
To summarize things, If CCP was to open up more space at this very moment, there would be a place for the "smaller corps". |

If CCP adds more districts, why do you think the corps who own districts now won't take them and get even more money from them than they get now? |

so they're going to wait until all the good people quit the game because no one can/wants to fight them anymore.
that's basically the only way there will be peace in dust. it's also the condition dust dies in. We're mercenaries, peace is terrible for business. |

Stepping on peoples toes is the entire point. There shouldn't be room for everyone to have a district; if there was there woudn't be much of a reason to attack.
OTOH, there is definitely an issue with not being able to attack districts outside of your own peak TZ. Our enemies' districts have reinforcement timers deep into US TZ and so we can't feasibly attack and conquer those districts. The same applies in reverse.
So whilst we're sitting right next door to each other, both corps have plenty of districts that are not under attack.
Makes me think that you should only get bonuses from your district for the period of the day that you are willing to have it vulnerable to attack. Can only defend it for 4 hours per day, in EU TZ? Then you get only 4 hrs worth of reinforcements.
Or possibly some sort of 'hot racking' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_racking where a district can have multiple owners all responsible for defending whatever they are capable of. It's probably too complex to implement or understand though... |

I'll just add that the only thing that would make CCP think there should be more districts is EVEN MORE battles each day. |

Also allowing corps to buy multiple clone packs was a big mistake. There are like 20 corps with districts. There would be a lot more PC action if owned by 250 different corps. Smaller corps have little chance and segregating your only actual unique feature from 80% of your already small playerbase isn't helping matters. |

Maybe you didn't understand what I said. Read it over.
Basically, when people(Corps/Alliances) are comfortable about where they stand, that should be the time for more space to open.
If that's not what's going to happen, than what we'll have is just land grabbing and ISK farming. |

So most of you agree that PC should be entitled to the top tier players only? And for the vast majority, there is instant battle... lame. The number of districts is laughably small. |
