My primary reason for this post is just to state that UTGO only have 6 planets in there home system in Sag. R33.
Now it seems all u ICC guys have an affinity with R33, due to a fallen player, (may he rest in peace.)
Perhaps a reshuffle of Sag is needed,. my suggestion here is move R33 to replace luyten, give us UTGO our Cincinatti back, give the ICC the terran planet/s they so desperately need, and take 1 from the kluth (which isn't really necessary).
Perhaps with the llittle more activity we are getting at the moment the old layout with all the original planets could be used again.
Any other thoughts on this issue?
Utgo, by only having 6 planets in R33 at gives us less of an opportunity to set our planets up for purposes, Eg. inf, depots, Sy. deathstars eg..
thoughts?
P.s. Bean station was RSM home and we want it back !!!

i agree
ICC had R33 as a home for a month or so... and it was hell to maintain... would log in every day and have nothing... and it was nothing for the enemy to do that to us becouse we did not have good layouts.
groups of 3 or 4 planets are needed to be able to defend eachother.. a lone planet is a dead planet..
case and point.. Zoca.. Evast... Eternity... all change hands hourly [ This Message was edited by: Defiance{R33}*XO* on 2010-02-01 01:12 ]

I understand where you are coming from mate - but the lines drawn in the sand about which system belongs to which faction as a home system are completely up to the faction.
If UGTO as a collective decided that BD is now their home system it will be so. The position of the gates is not that relevant (I think more of a pride thing) as long as u hold a SY planet u are at little disadvantage - u own and hold BD u now have a back door into the ICC home system and ownership over their entry point to the server. Try it - Make BD yours.
I think your only real argument is that u got a crappy entry point to the MV.
In my mind the MV is a K'luth system - just let'n u boyz have some wins here and there so we have somethin to chew on The planets for me are just somewhere to look for meat.
I am being slightly misleading here but the essence of my comments I think holds true.
Making every system identical would be a mistake - we are heading in the direction of identical ships fighting in identical systems - then we start calling for our internet connections to all be balanced out... blah blah ... there is always something to bitch about.
What has been done to the K'luth faction since 482 to make us a more human identical faction is too much of travesty displaying a great lack of imagination which existed in previous versions. The game has suffered alot for these types of errors (Never had the same player numbers since). This excessive balance concept is a poor direction to continue in.
Need to keep the variety up between the factions & systems IMO.

Big map.. complaints were:
- Not being able to find people.
- Never any fights.
- Planets were meangingless.
Now that its small, people complain about actually having to defend planets, actually having to fight for them, actually you know, playing the game.
Really it just seems like nobody is every satisfied. Maybe its because there isn't anyone to play with.

totaly agree bud.
customer feed back is a verry important part of any buisness.
the original post tho was about uggies having 6 planets.... icc having no terrans... and kluth having the best of both worlds.
we need a teran.... uggies need more planets in general.. and the middle system needs to be something worth fighting for ;p
purty please

Screw the old map. Just add orbital movement to planets in sag server.

so out of the 3 pages of this topic i've seen very, very few people say that Sag should stay how it is. so if 99% of the DS customers want Sag switched around, why not try? are you gunna wait untill theres half as many players as there is now before u deside to try something the players want?
i do, however, really like jbuds idea of the joined MV, and it seems that other ppl do too. so could we maybe get this done ASAP??? please?

getting this trainwreck back on track.
thread is about sagittarius's layout.
anything else is offtopic and will be summarily removed.
if you'd care to post feedback about sag, specifically, you go right ahead
- a few more planets in r33
- icc could use some terran planets on their side of the map
- replace luyten with r33, and insert cincinnati where r33 is currently.
- a moderate increase in number of planets in sag as a whole
that's decent, maybe even useful, feedback. [ This Message was edited by: Mersenne Twister on 2010-02-03 19:07 ]

That system in Sag with the MI planet. Eassl Octavius or something like that....
It's a real waste of a star system. Needs more planets.

the entire sag server could be redesigned and im sure most of the playerbase would appreciate it more. sag is getting boring, same planets, same layout, same battle grounds with the same tactics.. need some freshness.
-add another system?
-add some planets?
-change gate locations?
-switch up ai activity?
-a realistic (functional for all three factions) kluth vs icc vs ugto system used as a battle grounds to replace luyten would be nice.
maps are probably the easiest element of developement. like barack obama said it's time for a change -- please.

I've been having some brief informal discussions with Doran (in particular) about a new MV.. or at least tweaks. So its not something we're ignoring.
And Faustus is in texas.. but the rest of us are spread out: DC, virginia, oregon, ohio, uk, netherlands, new jersey...
