I am curious are you even going to have enough balls to post from your actual account or will you just endlessly try and deflect to the fact that I am new to the game and enjoy popping astero’s as some sort of default sign of your superiority ?
you seem to be a regular feature here talking a lot of trash but you have to do it with anonymity you seem like someone who talks a big game but the reality is probably very different to be honest it seems that many of the nullsec whales will only come on here and spew snide remarks from alt acc’s I am seeing a theme you guys want a safe space mechanic in every facet of your online activity. Your attitude and manner of retort are reminiscent of the kinda guy who uses a fake name and a meme as his profile pic on social media and joins groups just to hurl abuse around in an attempt to feel superior and to be honest I cant be bothered wasting my time with you any longer but saying that feel free to hit me up with a reply from your actual acc, if you have any balls that is.
Hello
First of all, if you wanna troll it better be funny.
I wanted to express my honest opinion, valid or not. In terms of recent behaviours from CCP developers I was excited at the prospect of new and interesting directions in where to take the game, existing stuctures have left the game in a state where its almost like a stalemate.
The “power blocs” have had it their own way for a significant length of time, for example before the cyno changes titan/super pilots had to press maybe 2 buttons and a full response fleet would be present to stamp out anything that dares shows up. The cyno changes have had limited effect, from what I have witnessed the big empires just simply put several force recon ships on field instead of just 1, so when that evaporates they dont have enough time to kill the second or third. How is this considered entertaining game play? I have seen writers describe null as the “wild west” of the map of new eden, having the black out nearly took us to that level, it made null dangerous and provided pilots with the ability to take full advantage of the covert aspect of the ships in question.
It is my sincere hope that CCP have something up their sleep in terms of new ideas and changes to support the newly implemented cyno changes, as the current status of the game has created a stagnant feel.

Thank you for removing the Blackout from 0.0 space. I will play more eve online.
You could adjust time delay with the size of the ship - if the system was small enough a player in a ship with a low enough signature radius could pass through without showing in local.

Have rolling blackouts instead, an area will go Dark for 1-4 days, and leave no local.
Have them roll thru Null, non stop, call it leftover damage from the blackout.

Some thoughts/suggestions around Null local / blackout mechanics:
- A ship entering a system should not immediately be reported in local, this should be an incremental mechanism
- After a small amount of time (e.g. 1 minute), it’s ship “type” is reported (e.g. frigate, destroyer, cruiser, etc.)
- A little later (e.g. after 2-3 min in system), it’s exact type is reported (e.g. Thrasher, Loki, Revelation, etc.)
- And then next (e.g. 3-5 mins) would the corporation/pilot name be reported (ship transponder info)
- Detection time could be affected by ship signature radius
- If a ship cloaks, its detection timer is paused or reduced (e.g. only uncloaked time is taken into account)
- Corporation/Alliance who owns the system should have advantages, for example:
- Information on ships in system is reported faster (e.g. 20%-50%). This benefit could be affected by factors such as military index, or new special structures deployed in system
- Details about other Corporation/Alliance members pilots are immediately available (no delay)
- Members should have the ability to filter local (e.g. see only members / non-members)
- New ships modules or rigs could be introduced to protect from local detection (e.g. reduces detection time/chance by a %)
Of course understand that all of the above introduces significant development efforts and extra server load. And I didn’t read through the 4,000+ above messages so these may have been discussed…
Please do not use this Blackout event as a template for future events. Removing a feature of the game is not content. It is removal a feature. It would be like tearing the avionics out of your aircraft and selling it as an improvement. It is not an improvement. I have let my sub lapse and just been logging in enough to make myself present in the corp stay afloat since this blackout thing has been going on. I am sure the online repressed sociopath hunter killers were salivating the entire time, having their mothers bring them hot pockets endlessly as they drift from system to system looking for miners, ratters and other people leading the carebear life. Their endgame content is grief so darkness is their old friend and a blackout is right up their alley. The alley they rob you in.
The point is that if you stay docked up or better yet logged out. They have a drought of murders.
Did I mention I did not like the blackout.
What is next on the horizon for ‘content’ ships without engines? Maybe your guns on your ship jamming?
How about any other feature of the game vanishing for a few months.
Then call it content.

You act like this is somehow different from normal.

Don’t get too uppity on this note. Arrendis has a truckload of goon related flaws, and issues when it comes to discussion and debates, but they’re also one of the very few people in these two threads that’s demonstrably intelligent, invested, experienced and worth paying attention to. Even with their blinders on, they’re worth ten of any of the other shiptoasters in this thread.
I call them on their bullcrap, but don’t start acting like you’re anywhere near above them.
What you say may be possible but I have not see the behavior you are speaking of.

So blackout lifted, or too heavy loss of income? Anyway can I petition to get my lost game time back as i tested CCPs behaviour towards mass account loss and personel spending behavior?
BTW can i have my cyno mod back on my Titan? Or should I play into your behavior and activate an other account?

Nope. I’m just not gonna deal with your pompous crap when you continue to knowingly misrepresent things and act dumb to avoid admitting when you’re wrong. You’ve done this for years, and I’m just not gonna indulge it anymore.

I don’t feel like i speak up enough, so i’ll throw my two cents in.

I directly benefited from Blackout

I disagree with the concept of a total and permanent Blackout.
Honestly the whole thing was a great shake-up. Big, simple, and temporary.
RIP anyone who logs in infrequently and didn’t know, but that’s uh… a different discussion.
Knowingly misrepresent what? You can pretend as hard as you want that somehow you lot are playing 4D Chess while others are playing Checkers and somewhere over in WHs they are playing Tic Tac Toe, but the simple fact is that you are wildly exaggerating it. The game is the same, and your ego will just have to deal with the fact that you lot aren’t playing a different game than others. It’s the exact same game with higher numbers and scale, that’s all.
Basically, get over yourself, and get some god damn perspective. It’s. A. Game.
Whatever you say, Miz.
How sad to see you reduce yourself like that.
really CCP -. you cant change the link of the BLACKOUT LIFTED to link to this thread ?
Please do so and look professional !

Now you’ve resorted to concern trolling. It’s like you’re going down the list of ‘dishonest discussion tactics’.
That would require engaging with these threads in any way. CCP’s not going to do that.
