System size

[Vladimir]

Space is big. Space is very big. Space is so big that'€¦ blah blah blah.

Alright. Some people seem to think that size doesn'€™t matter, and what matters is how fast can you fly from point A to point B, preferably full of hostile vhfs.

Now, I don'€™t say I enjoy flying around like a retard for hour or more trying to find things to shoot, but big systems still look like fun, and they give a better feel when you just fly around or hunt people there or whatnot.

Remember O-47? Ah, that'€™s my favorite system it seems. Vast, clear, with nice sun, and a lot of places to go. Vomit clouds kinda spoil this up, but hey, such is life in Omegas. Munich. People tend to say it needs to be made smaller. Because what, too far between mining location and nearest lawful base? Come on. Well, it has a tricky spot for unlawful, where autopilot screws up and flies you into the sun, but that'€™s only making it interesting. My trade runs involve smuggling some ores and some blood diamonds via jumpholes and cruising 100k in every system I go through, and that'€™s the most relaxing thing I did in disco. Even more relaxing that Gamma. The worst thing in disco is system wall, in my opinion, for my biggest dream was buying a corvo and gtfoing into nothingness. But that'€™s just me.

On the other hand, say, O-41. This place gives me claustrophobia. Or, say, S-13. Or even O-7. Are these places fun? Nah, it'€™s just vomit cloud and nowhere to go. Well, O-7 at least has an end to that cloud, but to see it I had to fight some RNC for quite a some time, and thrust around what, 70k of vomit devoid of anything?

My point is. Do you prefer big and interesting systems that give you nice space feel, like O-47, or do you prefer smaller systems that give you the ability to spend less time in search for things to shoot, like O-7?

It'€™s really interesting.
