A Good Start

The null security space black out of local chat needs to become a permanent feature.

The changes to cynosaural fields are wonderful, as amongst other things it means a gate camp no longer has the risk of each and every target potentially being the conduit for a hot drop.  It does make it harder for those folks who need a cynosaural network, but that's what training and skill injectors are for.

However CCP have not gone far enough.

0.5 systems need to become 0.4 systems sometimes, for a day, a few days, or even a week.  Some in game lore can be generated about how it happens, the break down of law and order, etc etc, and CONCORD as their last act in the afflicted systems, anchors an invulnerable cyno jammer ... most of the time.

This would create new, temporary pockets of high sec space.  It would move the usual trade routes, but the time spent as a low security system would not be too long so waiting it out would be an option, but also the brave may run the gauntlet.

The time those systems would spend as 0.4 would not be long enough to destroy citadels, but certainly enough for a reinforcement timer or two.

Then after the amount of time passes the 0.4 system once again becomes 0.5, and a guaranteed amount of time would need to pass before it could revert once again into 0.4.  CONCORD could flood the system with ships to help achieve this from a lore point of view.

Hopefully this would be another step towards making Eve Online feel more dynamic and alive.
