Can we please get rid of that stupid uncappable planet it Kaus. Seriously it is the most annoying thing and the MI harrass in the System gives the advantage to the Kluth who don't have to deal with it because of Cloak. they just come in and kill us while the ICC and UGTO have to scramble around like chickens to try to kill the MI off to get anything done in that system.

the problem is not just the Mi, but the whole AI as it is, right now only kluth have a way to avoid gettting picked in Ai fights due to cloak, everyoen els,e no matter what they try to do, theres always a bunch of Ai jumping to em and starting a fight. its easy for kluth to pick off people during that time

Ive been saying many times but nobody cared about the AI. Ppl dont want to fight ai or MI. Yes it is true that we need AI in game but less. I would like to see pirates in MV then MI. Miss Luyten with pirates  and i think many of us miss it.

Kaus is probaly nice for new players cause there is always action.
I agree with Flash that i kind of miss Luyten since it was like the system which was usaly held by UGTO, showing their dominance back then.
Owning Luyten was like saying "we are winning for now."
Kaus is just a buffer which no one cares about and which needs to be bypassed, it has some strategical value though, since Melando and Aticus are usaly SY planets and give faster acces to the battlefield, but these planets are owned by a different faction every other day.
But i dont want to insult KennyNaboo who designed this map and put a lot effort in it.
I cant say if there would be more players without Kaus cause most "veterans" dont like the current MV, or if their would be less players cause newer ones would say "what the point? Nothing is going on anyway".

Remember, Pirates now have their boarding gadget that dumps troops directly onto ships without having to use pods, and without actually needing inf in the cargo hold. Dread and Station users will be crying rivers if THAT shows up in MV.
Swing by Rogen's Rift for a while and check it out.

Im sure if we have Luyten back and 1 sistem for each faction lots of ppl will come back atleast i will be playing more for sure. I know a few players who stopped playing since the map was changed. Id say would worth a change.

Not the masses but some does. Gain a few more players. Good for the game id say. Those few can bring some extra money buying enhacements.

I always joke that Kaus Borealis is latin for causes boredom....it is also annoying as others have said.....volme septavus is the ghetto of kaus and a useless planet since you cant jump to gates from there...way too many ai---3 factions ai + MI ai. and MI ai nuke sys 3 times aday atleast and do NOT drop anything but crap....pirates are cool and need a dread (OR SAVE PIRATES FOR A FORTH PLAYER FACTION*HINT*HINT*), but atleast make MI drop something good for all the trouble.

A less drastic solution than removing it or the AI might be to branch off the system instead of having it as a hub.

My issues with the MI stem from the fact that fighting them is a massive waste of time. They take way too long to wear down and do not drop any good enhancements.

Oh yeah, Pirates are incredibly OP now, they can effectively insta-win against any ship in the game because they can constantly teleport elite inf into enemy cargo holds.

I think Flash wanna Pirate in Sagi, he doesn't mean Luyten.
Anyway, neither remove death beam from MI or modify it.
I would love to see death beam is replaced by infantry parachute - a gadget that shoots 64 MI infantry pods onto the planet when activate. Death beam can't help MI capturing planets; it just causes trouble. But infantry pods gadget is a solution because infantry now contribute in capturing race.
