Local Comms Blackout - Discussion Thread

  1. You shouldn’t undock something you are not willing to lose
  2. Plenty of sane people who undock their ratting ships in wh space without local. The problem here are your bottinglike warnings. Blame yourself for it.

Ive lived there multiple times, and hopefully will roam there still so it is very relevant to me. im genuinely interested in the arguement that people are making. Everything so far is people stating that they will not have it as good as they have had it up till now

Nullsec is player owned space, I would call the pirate regions outlaw space.

splitting hairs, null sec is zero security space and zero security space should be dangerous.

as @Ni_Neith says, do not undock what you cannot afford to lose, then null sec is so lucrative you can undock most things and afford to lose it

NO, IT’S NOT Outlaw space !!! For gods sake … it’s the ONLY Player driven security Zone in EVE! No Concord doesn’t mean it’s lawless. The ■■■■■■■ sleepy rorquals or other caps are fined for being sleepy … you loose your rorqual because of being afk → you pay 1b fine (for first time). Just because you cannot adept and rely on NPCs for your savty doesn’t make your style of Play better. We care here for our own. We do not have NPC-Police to watch and save our butts. We are on our own AND THAT you want to take away. And THAT’S why people get angry and quit. THAT’S why the Change is utter ■■■■■■■■, because the Players driven Content is countered.

So you managed to miss my entire argument.

The point is, nullsec is being made too safe for ganktards.
As of now, we have 3 (confirmed with locator agent) combat probing hounds logoff in our systems.
It will be 100% safe for them to gank. No danger involved. Null should be dangerous for everyone.

Its only made safe by the work put in by groups of players, inherently it is dangerous but players worked together to make their section of space safe.

The cool part about no local? They won’t know if you move… If they follow you, move again. If they follow you again, then stop being bad.

You may not know how locator agents work then. They will know if he moves, but he wont know if they move.

And they totally can’t see on dotlan where we moved, right?

So how is NO local gonna stop you from continuing doing so? You people should really stop contradicting yourself.

This is CCPs game not mine, I dont want to take it away. What I do want is to be able to roam null sec and find fights, sure the blob will happen still that cannot be helped but it is yet to be determined how this change will pan out. If CCP feel it is overkill they will reign it in and alter it.

So what is null sec to you then, a place where you can make billions with carriers and know of all fleets passoign through and where they are at any given moment?

How is removing intel we use going to stop us from working together to make it safe? Is this a self answering question?

They are scared of losing their shinies, thats all i am getting from this.

I like how people come on here and complain about this nullsec local comms blackout as if this is an entirely new feature to the game as a whole. Wormhole space already operates like this. If you have seen wormholers they have some of the most expensive ratting and PvP ships for their ship size. If you don’t enjoy not having local chat you now have a reason to live in Low Sec and give it some life. You also don’t have much reason to not just move to Wormhole space. This null sec blackout allows other pieces of space to become more viable and will probably help spread the number of players in all of K space.

You will still have intel channels no, perhaps people need to take more notice of them. just dock everything up until yur sure they are clear

You still have gates where you can put your cloaky eyes one. No local does not prevent you from collecting intel, stop bullshitting.

Just a heads up: raging on forums will attract even more attention for fun and salt.

I can see now why he’s using an alt. I would camp the hell out of this guy just for the salt if he was using anything attached to his real toon.

Also the free killmails, because he’s made it’s obvious he doesn’t know how to defend.
