Wow I am sure it will be visually pretty but really why null security space? In my opinion this is a misdirected waste of resources applied to an area of the game that requires other more significant changes. Why introduce new mechanics to a region that has not asked for it? Why not tackle the inherent issues that currently exist in these regions? I have played this game for over 16 years and this proposed change is similar to the Sansha incursion mechanic and in my opinion a waste of time and annoying. Obviously I will adapt but really this will be another annoying feature in my opinion.
If the storms placement will be visable on ingame map, or at least on a 3.party website i see possible future for this, not othervise.
Also 24-48 hour movement cycle? If a stormchaser does not log in for a week or even just for 2 days the storm will be long gone.
Slower movement would make it more predictable both for those that want in and those that avoid it, im my opinion possibly leading for more content.
If you guys would ask for more changes in null then just maybe ccp will ignore you and change other sectors of space, but no all you hear about in null is blue rings and crabbing this isnt the perfect storm. âim comfortable ccp, im established ccp, my alliance is massive ccp, please please shake up my life because i am too comfyâ
It would be better to first fix the problems with other parts of the game, useless âEDENCOMâ ships, useless invasion that only interferes with playing, and which no one is farming, depreciated loot in the abysses, when the factional damage modules from the invasion are still overvalued, and the abyss are farmed by bots, and everything that used to be there was expensive, not worth anything. Factional wars are dead, and you breed and produce new content that is not completed yet, and then you do not develop it in any way.
Just use any of the many ships that already exist that deal damage to 1 target and stop suggesting a change that removes the one thing that makes these ships unique.
There should be option for spread dps and option for dps to one target. So 2 options, elasticity. Thats what would save the specific ship gun and ships as a platform.
The whole idea of the no cloaking would be to entice people who are sick of cloakers to go take advantage by being in the area, adding cloaking again would go and make that part obsolete.
There is bonuses to the storms smart null secers will be outside doing stuff not just logging off. Only people unable to think will not even try by logging off.
There are 4 general types of storms, CCP promises to launch 2 of each type, 8 in total.
Your proposal is:
I propose to balance it out with adding no cloaking to all storms. Your answerâŚ
Not only you are confirming that what makes a âFair Fightâ in this case is a balance between âcloaking/local and no_cloaking/no_localâ, but you also proposing to implement changes that will make 3 of 4 storms not being a âFair Fightâ whatsoever (since you want only 1 of them be without cloaking).
