Local Comms Blackout - Discussion Thread

Best news I’ve heard in this game in a LOOOONG time.
Please make the Blackout permanent and ignore all the crybaby whiners. This is something that will make this game have some new life that was sorely crushed by nullsec blue doughnuts, too much safety in null, asset safety, etc.
Between this and the incursions attacking structures, this game suddenly becomes cool like it used to be.

MAKE EVE GREAT AGAIN!

I resubbed 3, because this is what we needed.

You were saying that many of those daily bomber losses were hisec. An I’m saying that’s not a significant number. Cause if nothing else all the ones blowing up in null show well enough that bomber fleets aren’t inherently safe. But also because a large number of those barge losses are hisec and many others are lost to conventional pvp ships. So the total barges lost to bombers isn’t that high.

Seriously, lol? Like they don’t just cyno in caps now when you jump ratters and miners.
If you’ve played for 13 years, then you should appreciate some of the “hardcore” being brought back to this game. At least there will be a chance of some fights in null now, instead of everybody just docking up when 1 non-blue enters a system 4 jumps away. If you live in null, it should be more difficult mechanically than living in HS or LS and you should have to be vigilant as an organization. Not this la-de-da carefree crap we have now in null.

Now, if we could just get rid of the ridiculous asset safety…

Null-sec miners don’t risk squat. What fantasy world do you live in?

Wow, I didn’t know you can tell my whole game history from zkillboard. First, I took a long vacation and have returned in recent months; second, I said nothing about pvp, corp play or fighting, i said I roam solo and didn’t mention I spend most of my time exploring and some time running missions. I didn’t make claims, I just said that nullsec is supposed to be dangerous. Try reading my post again, maybe slower this time.

You fly through 20 systems now and there are no targets. They all dock up when you are 4 systems away.

I don’t like it for null…i don’t like it in hisec either. but if you’re gonna do it anyway, lets allow dreads and titans to roam hisec…lets get this trainwreck movin’ shall we? wh space is supposed to be blacked out. there are no gates there. there are however gates in null. gates for those of you that don’t know, are checkpoints as well as entry points. so you should see who is entering into your system. but if you really are determined to jack things up and scare new people away…allow all ships to roam freely in hisec.

Anyone bosoning will be in a fleet with another 100 titans, and have a cyno.

‘Accepted’? Nah. I don’t think it goes nearly far enough. Remove the map’s intel tools. Remove covops cloaks. You want to be in space? Be in someone’s crosshairs.

The stats I pulled was death stats from zkillboard. However, I have mainly been on my phone which makes dealing with data difficult.

Aren’t you ever worried about it running too rich? That’s a LOT of salt…lol

You know, cloaky camping is only a problem for nullbears because they are chicken. Think about it this way, you won’t know the cloaky is there so you can go about your day without shaking in your boots because some guy in an exploration ship with cloaked in your system and won’t leave. Ignorance will be bliss, lol.

So, tired of people worrying about cloaky campers. Pretty sad that one character in a 50mil ISK covops can disrupt so much all by his lonesome. Really shows how much cowardice there is in null, which should be the exact opposite of cowards.

What in the hell are you talking about? If you get rid of anoms and sigs, then what would the ratters be ratting? Did you even think about what you were saying for even like a millisecond?

Cry more salty one. Null should be dangerous and incursions that were opt-in aren’t really incursions now are they? Look up the definition of incursion.
Null should be hard. Null should have high risk to offset its high rewards.
You want space that you can rule without help from Concord, etc.? You want space to call your own? Then you should have to work for it and work to keep it.

Additionally EVE is a pvp game, pvp in many forms. If you can’t accept that then you really should unsub those accounts because you are playing the wrong game.

You need to drop cloak to take any action other than observe, placing you in someone’s crosshairs.
You’ve been stuck in your titan too long and have forgotten how covops cloaks work.

100s of titans in one place close together…I wonder how many bombs it would take to kill some?
Has anyone run the math? Thankfully you’ll be easy to pin down using bait ships jumping through to get bosonned while the many bombers get into position.
No local means you’ll not know with certainty if it’s happening or not.

The reward is playing pvp in a pvp game. Remember fun? You know, the thing that most people play games for?

Would be freaking amazing!!!

And what free intel would that be? Do you even know how hunters hunt? I don’t think you do.
