That is a bit adorable. ā€œWe never left our invincible stations in hisec but now we will because its easy to winā€

I mean. Yeah, thats WHY itā€™s a bad game balance decision

WHers use gates? I thought the whole point of WHing was to NOT use gates?

Yes, which means it is not temporary, clearly, lol. Look how many people are freaking out in their happy madness, lol

There was no point to live in nullbear space until now. I play games to have fun and not to carebear away in perfect safety. I mainly live in w-soace and highec where people donā€™t just dock because of a single neutral in system. HTFU :rofl:

About time because nullsec is not supposed to be more secure than highsec.
Youā€™re not supposed to sit around feeling absolutely damned safe in NULL security.
You can still have good intel and good security but youā€™ll have to provide it with real, active accounts with people that actually play the game, not just alts sitting on another screen with nothing but the ā€œlocalā€ list being important.

Removal of the player list on local will in the end be a good thing for all pilots. It will curtail many of these bots that look at local to warp to safes, and it will reward people who are actually playing the game instead of AFK mining/ratting.

It will take some getting used to. Iā€™d suggest learning how to use D-Scan, and making sure your friends/corpmates/etc also learn to use it. If you want really good intel, put eyes on a gate and listen for incoming fire and watch that screen when you hear it. Then you report to intel channels just like normal. You just wonā€™t be able to do it from inside a station while not paying one lick of attention to it. Or using streams to have camping eyes in choke points getting free intel.

Iā€™ve lived in Null before and it was stupid safe. I actually consider Low and High less ā€˜secureā€™ than Null because of umbrellas. However after moving to J-space, and getting over my fear of losing local, I actually find any place without local to be better for me, and even for the other active players. No longer do I jump a wormhole and worry about getting blobbed just because I exist. No longer do I have to worry about someone who jumps into my space instantly knowing Iā€™m in-system, ratting/mining/gas-huffing just by looking at local. They have to scan for me, as I do for them. And in my home, we keep active eyes on our entrances, which gives us enough intel that Iā€™ve only been jumped/ganked 2-3 times in a whole year. Iā€™ve lost a ton of ships to fights, or while moving stuff around, doing logistics, or stuff, but not being ganked in my home system. And Iā€™m called the ā€œKing Krabā€ in my corp because if Iā€™m not fighting, Iā€™m making ISK to buy more stuff to lose.
