I love the role play of ganking, I don’t think the gankers like the role play or even care about it. It would awesome to have gankers part of pirate factions only, and they live in Null and come through wormholes and harrass high sec randomly. There would need to be some mechanic changes i.e. they get worm holes that have lets say the mass of 4 cats for 1.0-0.9 as an example.
Gankers lose their ability to dock in high and player stations would still be open if they wanted to permit that just like a real pirate. High sec players would need to scan down WH in their system to get the intel if gankers are coming or not.
I could go on and on, but I would 100% support that.
Low sec does need people for sure, and I don’t live in low so I am not yah or nah, I think it is apart of the eco system we are all apart of and if one place is suffering, we all feel that.
Sounds like you would fit in perfectly here. And I don’t need your tears and crying please, go hug a ganker for me okay.
I am here for the betterment of the game, Gankers are killing the game. I am not going anywhere, so you are better off moving along back to mommy okay big guy.
Scipio Artelius, keep it together, I don’t know why you are so angry. Ganking is a dying game play, CCP is going to remove it, the game will have a great growth after that happens and that is better for everyone here.
I know you and your friends struggle in life, seal clubbing is the only satisfaction you get and it is sad. I can help get you on the right track though, here for you.
I’m angry because there’s been enough lowlifes like you crying for changes that do nothing but hurt the game by a thousand cuts.
The game isn’t where it is as a result of CCP making great decisions. We are hear because of all the crap ones, led by a chorus of idiots that only think of themselves, rather than think of everyone as equal.
As someone that loves the game, I have every right to be angry when the next wanker comes along to destroy the game further.
And how exactly does getting rid of ganking from a couple of thousand systems out of almost eight thousand systems run the game into the ground?
Pushing ganking out (not all PVP) just ganking out of high sec would be a massive boost to the game.
I love the game, I want the game to be successful, I have invested thousands over the years, and I would hate to see all that go to waste.
So no, I don’t want to ruin the game; I am more than happy to go back and forth on reasonable or bad ideas. But not here to do anything on purpose for some medal that doesn’t exist.
I gain nothing by making the game worse; I play almost daily and still enjoy it.
So calm down ganker as the community would put it, it sounds like we have the same interest, just different thoughts on how to get there.
It turns highsec into a botting and AFK central hub
It treats a playstyle that you don’t personally like as a second class citizen. They somehow don’t deserve their playstyle (despite CCP saying they do). Not everyone wants to do other playstyles, just in the same way as forcing miners or haulers our of highsec would treat them as lesser of a player and not all of them want to do other things. Forcing people out of valid playstyles by removing the playstyle all together hasn’t done anything but lead to lower numbers in the game.
One of the great things about EVE is that there are playstyles to suit many different people. It’s what leads to the tensions that exist in the game, because some of those playstyles are in competition to each other.
Removing playstyles doesn’t make the game stronger. It only weakens it and gives the competing playtyle (ie. bots and AFK players) more room to grow. Bots and AFK play isn’t great for the game.
■■■■■■■■ again.
No one needs to be war eligible. No one needs to accept duels. No one needs to go suspect and be subject to any pvp risk.
Highsec would just become a haven for even more bots and AFK players. Screw that.
No that is called null where this is a huge problem. You know where it is safer than high sec to live…yeah that place.
No not getting rid of any playstyle, moving it to low and below. And gankers are forcing their playstyle on players every single time they take on the act. So you are okay with that right? To balance this, gankers move to low and below and if other roles like miners or haulers want to be exposed to that gameplay they can go to low to get that.
Again nothing being removed, just putting all you great acclaimed PvP to a PvP area to see how good those alpha skills are.
No botting in high is not any better or worse than null or wh where there is much less people to watch the space and it is in a lot of cases much safer.
That’s nice dear. You can go choke on them for all I care.
If you think I’ll just idly sit by and watch idiots destroy the game, that isn’t going to happen. You are a good example of the type of whining that is behind the rot that the game is in.
Now it isn’t and it is bad everywhere it exists, including behind intel channels in null. We do our best to clear them out and report them, but that’s a never ending issue.
We certainly don’t want a game that allows for it even more.
If you can’t fathom that this is about a future state where you get your way, then really you are beyond an idiot, to whatever is dumber than that.
No Scipio, moving ganking out of high sec doesn’t do anything to the game. It is already on the Chinese server as you know. It isn’t some concept that is unheard of, and it will be fresh for the game to have a map change and rule change.
There is so much PvP area in the game, there would be no shortage of space for people to go and take part in what I think is some of the more exciting parts of the game.
Agree botting is bad and it does drive things in the wrong direction
I can fathom it, I think it would help with the game, but I do see where it could create some bad characters.
Would you be up for a gank in high sec that doesn’t drop anything?
Testing the waters here since you think I am to destroy the game I play daily.
So now you do want to get rid of all pvp from highsec.
Can’t even keep a straight story you are so wrapped up in BS.
Can you show me any results from the implementation in China? How has it worked out? Has highsec suddenly become a thriving metropolis of healthy gaming?
Any result at all?
EDIT: There’s only one other character in the forum that addresses by first name and has this sort of phrasing. It would be no surprise at all if you are also that twit.
I guess we all have opinions. But I mean if you look at high system compared to all other systems in the game, it is literally fact there would be more PvP area than none, but hey Scipio seems to the smart one here.
Nope, just ganking, I think I made that pretty clear if you can read the forums correctly, it would be appreciated.
Salts for sale, get your salts; having a sale today overstock of Scipio salts for sale.
It is only on their test server, that map I won’t lie looks awesome to me.
And sorry to disappoint, made this alt just for the threads I don’t have any known friends here in the forums, other than the people I have interacted with here.
Wait. So Null is really safe, ok, and its safe to the point that botters etc are happy to roam under an umbrella.
But if HS had ganking removed, wouldnt it be safer by definition?
Wait
If NS is already gank-free, why not move there instead of asking for HS to be changed? I mean, it would be a lot quicker than asking CCP to do something, wouldnt it?
Scipio so you are not confused anymore? Hey can I have my calculator back by the way, you should be done with it, what is 80087322… mysterious man you are.
I like something new, and I am so dumb for that. Have you ever saw a trailer to a movie and thought wow I beat I will like that…
ISD do not worry about my buddy Scipio name calling here, I am fine with it, we are going to be best friends before it is all over with.
you are so cute when mad.
Map is pretty cool though right? I mean did you look at it after I went and got the link for you? If you did you would be as excited as I am that is might be a possibility.
Oh someone getting hangry. Let’s have lunch and come back here, or do you want to attack the alt liability as good old lo does? You want to school someone on manners? Well if that isn’t the joke of the day I don’t know what is.
Such a strong noble man you are, wow just really a beacon of light and direction for the community. Can you help me carry all these bags of salt, I was giving it away for free today I am producing so much. Have you heard the news today, new salt mine found it is called The Scipio mine is one of the biggest known in the Universe.
Like the rest in here, you don’t have ideas, you rarely have complete thoughts. You don’t know how to argue, you don’t know how to think and formulate thoughts. You only have a short game, you don’t know what the prize even is. You will always be two steps behind, you will always be a F1 monkey, you will never be on my level, and you will always hate me for that.
And that is why you need seal clubbing…let that sink in.
I agree. It was just posted to show the lie behind the excuse used to justify removing ganking from the game.
If someone truly believed that lowsec needs more people, then adding more people of all playstyles should be a welcome approach to them.
Of course though, the next post he demonstrated that he wasn’t at all interested in the numbers in lowsec, only in removing a playstyle from the game.
So far, no change he has called for has been implemented that I’m aware of. I hope it stays that way.
However, there are certainly plenty of examples of changes implemented by CCP as a result of community whines that resulted in fewer players in the game.
For example, I was certainly all for a blackout style change to the game before it was implemented. That was a disaster for numbers in the game. There are many, many more examples since late 2013 and that have contributed to the decline in the size of the playerbase.
Remove it. That isn’t removal of all ganking.
Hopefully CCP addresses what they see as griefing now and if it improves the game then great. If it doesn’t, then I’d hope, like with blackout, they quickly reverse their view on what griefing is.
Removing griefing is a far cry from removing all ganking, which CCP have clearly said they aren’t interested in doing, but what is being called for.
Remove ganking all together from highsec and there’s no need to be in a fleet for protection. Just bot mine solo no problem.
you are so cute when mad.
