Local Comms Blackout - Discussion Thread

@CCP_Falcon,

I’ll be 100% honest and say that i dont think you guys at CCP have any idea what the community want anymore…You take time and listen to crap on Reddit and you give out elections on CSM yet you do things without them giving feedback…I hope you find the results youre looking for but honestly my 13 years in eve are soon to be done and the 8 toons ive played with for years and year are soon to be gone. CCP has failed alot of players and wow Yall have ZERO idea what PVP players want and let alone forcing Players into PVE matchs…

Actually null sec was never supposed to be more save than empire. The npc attacks should stop over time but the local in 0.0 has always bothered me because it makes proper roamings and small scale pvp very stupid and boring. And carrier ratting & mining and similar stuff works just fine with scouts anyway.

What the ■■■■ CCP are you trying to kill nullsec life? Seriously between the drifters and this you are screwing up big time.

This is EVE, there is no guarantee of safety. But there is a level where playing the way I want, doesn’t work anymore.

Ok I m really NOT STUCK on two ideas even, so here is a a third idea:

CITADEL based local

If you have a citadel anchored - you may equip it with a deep space scanner module.
Everyone in the alliance owning this citadel receives local info every time this module is activated,
As an UPGRADE for this module - allow a (strontium consuming) boost that temporarily renders cloak ineffective for - say - a minute. After that minute anyone may RE-cloak again.
Great for fighting off those AFK cloaky campers that scare your miners.

you dont like this idea ?

Check out my other two:

MAKE IT TRULY DELAYED and not WH like

100 seconds without any Activity Defense Multiplier
10 seconds with the the highest value the ADM can reach
Everyone will be much happier and alliances will have to utilize the space they live in or risk getting back stabbed and surprised

Joint venture intel on local

Since local is a product coming out of the intel shared - make it update for those who are in a fleet and in the same system together more quickly.
Allow some obscure anchored devices or even one of those new structures (cyno jammer, jumpgate etc) to link on to,
Team effort allowing shared intel and thus local updating (only) for those who team up

Have you ever considered learning about punctuation?

You did not hear the news ?

Staying docked is 100% safe

You can even safely move around using jump clones, yeah I am not kidding

Obviously this blackout is a bug they couldnt fix, so they decided to make it a feature lol

duration of this blackout is undetermined

this makes it a bug, they easily coulda said that the blackout is part of the story, and that when the Drifters are defeated thats when the blackout will be over, but nooooo, they had to let us devs know its a bug xD

So while I mine with my Rorq now I have to D-scan every 5 seconds in order to have even a slight chance of saving my Excavators?

Engaging gameplay.
Much skills.
Involved mechanics.

Perhaps “drifters” are real and they bug the game forever!

So… we also getting the cyno nerf? Or at least removal of dotlan and free hunting intel?

Or will this become black ops harassment online until everyone quits?

Nope checked that out too, it does not blow up when docked either.

Many tried to get my permanently docked ships, none has succeeded but I welcomed people trying to prove me wrong.

I am a ship collector by the way, I like looking at EVE ships much more than using them.

Hmm. Potential move to take away important live intel required for safe operation of bots in null. I like it.

live intel like dotlan and cloak camp bots that scan for ship types to auto alert hunters?

Or are you only against botting that doesnt benefit you exclusively

Your ideas are interesting. The problem is that the CCP first does ■■■■, then, long after, maybe offer ways to adapt the news.

VNI’s will be nerfed shortly to a point where you cant really krab with them efficiently anymore, so expect a lot cheap myrm kills instead.
