HS FUBAR! ccplease!

You’re doing a good job of keeping WH, NS, LS attractive and balanced. But HS is absolute complete fubar with the current bounty crime and loot system.

So there’s this Triglavian invasion going on. Nice, I can try to have some fun with my Rattle. Costed some iskies but hey it’s awesome to find a balanced ship to run a certain level of roaming triglavians.
Until… really annoying, and imho absolute low life stupid people decide it is fun to come with the cheapest ship, not getting targeted by triglavians, scoop loot and above all just salvage MY WRECKS without any repercussion. And ho don’t care triglavs because eventually after 20 wrecks or so, they might decide to target the little ship which just warps off before it gets target locked even.
So I consider a bounty but the bounty system; lets collect that with my alts… So that’s out the window.
Consider shooting him, oh wait he didn’t go suspect for salvaging my loot.
Oh wait I go get a catalyst and gank him; bok bok you go suspect and they get a killright and all that good stuff. So basically HS rules on wrecks, loot, bounty and such is game breaking.
I’ve lived in WH since ever and avoided any HS interaction because it’s broken as hell, with the triglav stuff I tried but the proof is in the pudding now.

Consider a couple of actions:
HS; wrecks you made should be yours and salvaging non released wrecks you didn’t create should make you a suspect (at least). Fleet leaving the grid or docking should start the timer for releasing wrecks and loot. As long as 1 of the fleet is on grid the wrecks should be still assigned.
Bounty; just a lame excuse for HS community controlled “security”. Completely broken and utterly useless.
Bounty should be claimable only by the victims and the bounty should be placed on them by NPC’s police/security whenever they break the “law”. The person that can claim the bounty should be able to do so at no repercussion and should be awarded the bounty.
On top of that apparently you just log on an alt and grief some triglav runners by shooting their tractor unit. No repercussion nothing.
But hey I guess CCP needs to protect these absolute annoying low lifers in support of ISK sink.
Getting seriously annoyed by the current rules in HS. Won’t get content from me :stuck_out_tongue: and wont really advice people to play this game. The numbers are showing from avg. 53K players back in the day to 26k in todays “highs” :slight_smile: real bummer :frowning:

The salvage isn’t yours, it belongs to whomever salvages it; the contents of the wreck, less the salvage, is the loot that technically belongs to you.

If someone takes the loot they go suspect which means that you can shoot them in the face, this is not necessarily a good idea.

Consider shooting him, oh wait he didn’t go suspect for salvaging my loot.

Salvage is not loot. Salvaging a wreck does not involve getting flagged; taking loot from it does.

Maritime salvage law in the case of Finders vs Keepers finds in favour of Keepers.

I knew this was a boohoo Im careless with my stuff thread.

Seems like I’m not the only one, 50K+ players like 6years ago, 28k on high days today…
I lived happily in WH’s for the longest time ever :slight_smile: Wanted to see if I could enjoy some “effort” from CCP on the triglavian invasion stuff. Just another big waste of effort and time on their part :slight_smile:

It appears that you may no longer require your stuff, if that is the case may I acquire it?

It sounds more like you wasted your time.

No I tried to enjoy something CCP added .
The addition is cool but bs in HS because of the HS rules…
So waste of time, like for anyone that would ask me how EVE is these days.

Perhaps you should go and play a different game.

Good riddance.

Why people tend to look allways to complicated and complex solutions? Much easily would be to make trigs switch target to any new ship on grid

Awesome idea. I referenced it in my rant :slight_smile: To me there’s more broken stuff in HS but yeah for Triglav that will help.

And in what way would that make them any kind of a threat?

Not the way bounty system works operates anymore…and hasn’t for a very long time.

Is perhaps why you are getting such responses. If you had started out with a constructive post and perhaps tackled one idea at a time, you may have had better feedback… unfortunately this thread will just end up in the heap with all the others…

Would suggest going back to your WH, highsec content is not for everyone.

Yeah, despite the usual replies about current game mechanics and PvP bullshite others have posted, I agree with you 100%.
