Sounds pretty cool, just so long as all the rewards aren't just vehichles. Some of us still walk you know.

If this gets into the game (wich I hope it will) I hope that the bases will look different and sufficently cool.

... that continental lock would be the reward for defending bases and towers. Once all of them are under the control of one empire and the continent is locked then there is only a limited route of attack for the enemy.

Still though, I totally agree that there needs to be some reward or some reason to NOT hop from place to place. 6 hours of fighting for the TR lastnight on Dalton - Cyessor and 10 mins before server down we had continental lock in sight. Personally I feel we could have locked Cy down an hour or two beforehand if people would have captured a base or tower and just stood guard. 8 outta 10 times we would take a base or tower and shortly after it would go back to the NC because everyone but me and maby 1 or 2 other guys would take off to the next battle site. If this kind of play continues and the dev's dont get around to implementing something to help this depressing situation out then I will most likely go back to non pay per month games.

Don't know,

seems that this would just cause a gunuku type battle on every continent... and some of us avoid the great gunuku zerg rush...

I think making the benefits of base control more palpable with the current bases in game is better then some new super base... but that's just my opinion.

I think a better motive would be allowing an outfit to take ownership of a base... and have a motive for keeping it defended, and fueled... I don't know!

This is a pretty good idea, and for the running folk you could give advantages like a special spitfire turret, or special gun, or decrased hack time, etc. Each continent would have its own "special" for owning the main base. increasing the varity in the game and giving a slight advantage to a faction that could hold them. A very good idea-- kind of king of the hill on a world wide basis.
