Local Comms Blackout - Discussion Thread

Ganktards are not pvpers, their hunt includes avoiding pvp as the core component.
Grabbing a fit pve player suggested and probably put together for pvp player and doing an anom in a way pve player suggested is far from “understanding”.

That is thanks for the fact that pve is a more important system - you need to do pve to pvp, but you don’t need to do pvp to pve.
pvp system in eve is niche, boring the living hell out of people, zero-depth thing which depends heavily on having more SP than your opponent. Can’t see why people don’t want to try it!

PVE and PVP require each other equally, no one will buy your stuff if they didn’t get it blown up, lost, or in some other way pulled out of their possession.

PVP is one of the primary core systems of the game, I don’t know why you constantly disagree with the developers of the game, as well as the statistics showing how vital pvp is to the game. =)

I guess its to hard to see that PVP and PVE need each other, so when CCP interduces something that endangers that balance it will make the game not worth playing to the mass. PVE’ers don’t come out to get killed by who ever. so there is no one for PVPer’s to kill but each other. but that wont last long with no one making the weapons of war.

This is null, sometimes you have to blue people who you don’t want to blue, or someone you wanted to blue is forced to lower his recuriting standards or go back to hisec, and that’s where spies go in.
The way blue tackle works is not just being the tackler yourself, he can sit cloaky near someone, and be logged on to teamspeak pretending he’s afk, waiting till someone announces he’s getting afk for a second, which totally happens with people, to spring a trap. This is zero-suspicion way, and I’ve gotten kills like that on renters myself, just way too easy, local or whatnot.

I won’t call it stupid, login traps are very hard to avoid, if you know at least a bit of what you’re doing, for example, you’re able to make a trap on krab’s MTU.

Can be set up anywhere so you’re moving through your constellation, enter another system and see reds, warp to citadel to reship, boom, bubble, dead. And if you provoke a response in another place, all the krabs are on the way to staging in their shiny capsules…

here is something to chew on. the top 4 alliances have between them 81400 members, the most I’ve seen on line in the last year is 30K. we all know how packed hi sec is. So what happened to all these alliance guys. is it time to trim some fat or is it time for CCP to do something to make the game interesting enough to get people to want to spend there money.

info from Dotland

NO :slightly_smiling_face:

Get better security and this should only happen once or …Stupid loss
Have your MTU in the same spot each time you rat… Stupid loss

This is not a Gank case but that being said… if you don’t d-scan towards your warp destination ? …Stupid loss.

Timezones happened. Large alliances have to cover all of them to be successful.

Those who leave over a change like blackout were contributing nothing but inflation of both isk and minerals.

Lol really??
you do not understand the game

Doesn’t matter, you can’t secure light blues.

Literally unrelated. As long as he has it somewhere. he’ll collect.

Wormhole space tricks are pointless in dangerous space nullsec is.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand ladies and gentlemen, here comes CCP with damage control.

Best proof ■■■■ went wrong has arrived.

I see you point but really there are only two time zones that have any bearing. US and EU apologies for lumping them together. there is just barely a third of 81K on right now. I doubt time zones have jack to do with that. I’m more inclined to think that people are just not playing.

Or people have several alts in alliances that are not required online at all times.

After reading this, all this stuff requires upgrading from alpha to omega…And has no bearing on those with current active subscriptions… And two the skill point log ins don’t even start till the end of August

same as saying “not playing”

do you play on all your characters at all times?

No, it requires purchasing game time, no matter alpha or omega are you.
You can totally do that with subscription.

There are two login events, one is indeed in August, but that’s the second one, and the first one is:
“Log in every day throughout Bonus Skill Point Week and get free Skill Points between 17 and 25 July!”
