Eventually we could have huge HYPER mining expeditions protected by a fleet of HYPER fighter pilots and use that as part of our strategy to dominate EVE Online
(through generating piles and piles of ISK). EDIT: maybe for now we should pair people who want to mine with someone who wants to protect them - if they both agree to the pairing? This way the fighter can win HYPER from PVP combat while the miner can be gifted some HYPER for their mining efforts.
It's a shame the "workshop" maps are a little buggy.
I suppose we could approach the workshop map developers or ask around to see if there are fixes for the bugs?
If they are causing bugs in terms of players earning HYPER on the server then I don't think they should be used until we can eliminate the bugs
Maybe we should let the community decide? Do they want workshop maps but experience bugs or would they rather go without and not experience bugs that potentially impact their earnings?
One person can not defend a miner. The attackers may use as many people as they want. An area can be monitored and miners notified of incoming problems, but it is not a 1 account job. The only income from mining operations would be from the mined ore. If there is to be a security force they would have to get a cut from that (and or hyper).
Only some workshop maps are buggy, most work great. The most recent issue we had was that the server did not obey the map rotation, meaning it loaded maps I never told it to load. It is fine to leave things as is but new players will be more difficult to come by. We had 10 times as many players during the time we ran workshop maps.
I have already received multiple messages from players requesting workshop maps return.
The bugs do not effect players earnings, but they can effect the ranking used for the monthly competition. The CS:GO server is supposed to be a public beta, but nothing can be tested or changed while a competition is ongoing...without the consent and understanding of all the participants in the competition.
Regarding the EVE Hyper corp, I have a thought on this. I'm a long-time EVE player (over six years), and as such I run my own corp by this point. I am very keen on HYPER, but not really willing to give up my corp and I don't think my friends would want to leave it to join HYPER either. However, perhaps an alliance could be formed of any corps friendly to HYPER cryptocurrency? The original HYPER corp could be the executor of the alliance, so it remains in control. If the membership is too small yet for a true alliance, then an unofficial alliance could still be formed (set "blue" standings to each other, create a private channel just for the unofficial alliance members, and my corp and any other unofficial members can assist in fleet ops and defense in wartime).
EDIT: I see HYPER already has a general-purpose TS3 voice server, would this also be used for the EVE corp/alliance? Just a dedicated channel for EVE players?
Please contact the HYPER Crypto corp in game. I would like more information about your corporation. Thanks
I was told they have created EvE related channels in the TS3 server, but I run a separate TS3 server for the EvE corp.
Let me know when you've gotten a wallet up I can donate some HYPER to you.
