I think the 3 inner planets should remain pvp free.
But we definitely need atmo pvp on the other planets. (but please NQ warn us about the changes before those happen, and I mean US, all players, not just a few favorite players)
 
I think that any radar should have a bigger range than any weapon.
I think that weapons should not have an optimal range equal to max range. Weapon range should be big but with a near 0% CTH at max range.
And yea, damage could be a little lower.

That's the thing. They never actually have proper suggestions to fix the real issues at hand. They just want everything one sided, and the game completely dead with just a bunch of niche PVP like you said. The thing is the PVPers here are the VAST minority. And even the CEO has stated on stream that DU is not a PVP game. It has PVP yes, but it's not even the man focus. He wants to see player cities, shipping, etc.

The suggestions I provided while extra, are actual balancing measures that would keep the game a live and teaming. I've played EvE for over 10 years. I can tell you first hand if it's not fixed now in early beta, the game is RIP.

How would the suggestion not be healthy for the game? EvE uses similar rules. They have permanent space safe zones for players. All the other suggestions are valid and actually address issues. You people are just trying to completely ruin DU with niche gank style PVP. And god forbid when planet warfare starts, it will just become RUST in space and people will leave the game in mass. Not everyone wants to build shitty boxes and keep repairing shit 101 times when they spend weeks making stuff.

Right now the cost of building is too high to replace things. And voxels are basically paper, even if you build them out of pure gold.

I am pro PVP. But it seems to me that the PVP players here crying, want everything one sided, and want no one to have any defense at all. Everyone would just be a glass cannon, and all fights will continue to just be pure ganking for no actual purpose. I want PVP. But not that kind of PVP. That just boring and frankly griefing. Right now PVP is complete trash, and everyone is using silly Borg Cubes. There is no proper defense for players who don't want to PVP at all. Which is insane to me.

PVP has to be balanced for both PVE players and PVP players. Or this game will fail. Period. The PVP we currently have and what is planned will ensure that DU is a niche game barely anyone at all actually plays. It will basically become Ark Survival in space and be pure trash. The suggestions provided by the OP are valid and actually address current problems. If you don't have the skills to fight ship vs ship...You don't need to be playing. Period.

I hate to break this to you all, but Economies do better without war in real life. The same applies to games. Maybe some of you need to go back and do basic High School Econ.
