  1. There is another thing that Mae DU different from Eve beside that everything will have a cost, either financial and/or men and ressources.

     

    We will need to explore the universe and creating trade routes, business hub like JITA and that create some interesting game mechanic like that:

    Your corpo found an interesting system and decided to open a trade route by installing a Stargate between that said system and Alioth's system. Your interest will be to secure those gates because you can collect a traveling fees, and if you failed to protect your customers, sooner or later another org will open a gate with stronger protections and more services like escorts, insurances and whatnot... 

     

    Thinking of it, we already  went there in the XVI-XVII centuries when the major European powers  sent ships everywhere to open and secure trades routes from/to Africa, India, Asia and such and it was fair game for those companies to 'reduce' their competitors by any means.

     

    And remember, a war is won with money, not men...

     

    Namaste

     

  2. Corpo like Goons will have a very fast reality checks for 2 reasons already mentioned heres and there : 

    • Finites  ressources that need time and skills to be found.
    • No overpowered aka scripted mining equipments whatsoever.
    • Manly operated ships (space and atmospheric) will need real crews to operate weaponries.
    • And some interesting basic mechanic not allowed to talk here that will make ganking really a challenge. 

    In short building a fleet of catalyst will be extremely costly in time, ressources and men to operate. I won't even mention Capitals war-fleet..

     

    Another side note, JC is/was an Eve player and knows very well how ganking could destroy an early game very  quickly.
