Ok i must say that stations are still incredible OP and are killing the gameplay, missiles are still incredible strong. Something needs to be done against station spamming before its to late!

Must correct you ;p ICC PSM is OP, huge splash damage!
Stations are Win/Win, huge armour plates making it impossible to destroy when grouped with many other stations. Plus having both JD and WH is retarded... making it EVEN MORE impossible because they can WH into the stupid retarded safe zone and use their PLATFORMS to repair.
What's the point of a RoC if you're not enforcing it?
Being K'luth, our stations die too easily.
*waits for ICC to moan about torps, until they realise we torp when they use stations*
Apparently our UBER OP torp still can't counter their stations, what is left to do when your most powerful weapon can't counter this annoying spam?!
EDIT: SOLUTION!! Change to UGTO, mod a UGG BS with defense enh and alba armour, smash it into ICC stations, win.

Limit the number of stations per faction would be a good idea or reduce the range or damage for missiles....ships doesnt stand a chance if 2 Line stations hit with missiles another ship. Its an insta kill.

The ranges of ICC station weapons are INSANE. With the help of weapon accelerator, Line projectile almost reaches everything. Narrow please!
As oppose to Line, Nest projectile almost reaches nothing. Widen please!
And perhaps replace ewar gadgets on support station with gun? It's undoubtedly SS was the spirit of UGTO due to the slowest regeneration. Since the day SS had zero weapon, UGTO has been underdog in big fight.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.
Class limits are clearly needed for some classes, and subtypes of ships. Even more so now that the map has been shrunk to a 3-system 'Maxi-scenario' type gameplay.
My suggestion, limit per faction to
2 or 3 stations
12 dreads
20 cruisers
Dessies and below unlimited.

Limit station per factions would cause frustrating and unfair gameplay. Who has the right to ride the big one when both are CM?
The limitation should depend on planet's rare resource. Say, station requires uranium to launch from SY, and not all maps have uranium.
Was such case implemented, someone would complain because they stored like 3 stations and 5 dreadnaughts in garrage... Hell, there is always trouble in tweaking the game without hearing any moaning. But if the implementation makes game more interesting, it's deserved.

^^ the old resource system was what made Darkspace unique. Wish they would bring it back, I think it would go hand in hand with the new mv.

Imo Line station , BS and Nest should have less armor and missiles a bit nerfed. Ppl should not be encouraged to play with stations , camping planets or gates. Giving smaller ships a chance to kill them easily is a good way to stop station spamming and yes Nest is the weakest Combat station then its the ugto one. Compare those two stations with the icc one and see whos winning. Rotating shields plus range and faster regen rate. Something has to be done untill is not to late! Nest sucks in combat due to range and claoking timer. Bs is a joke too!

Nah, anything less than a dread killing a station is OP.
Yep.

And that's the problem with you players.
You complain about station spamming, but are unwilling to accept class limits, citing unfairness and the freedom to use whatever ships you wish.
Your argument defeats itself, and the original point of this post.
And then you start to think about nerfing stations, and missiles. And it becomes a nasty, vicious cycle of ups and downs, repeated ad nauseum.
To answer your question: Who gets to use the station?
First come, first served. In other words, if the slot is empty you get to roll your station. If it isn't, then you go pick a dread or a cruiser. Wait your turn until that station driver logs.
