Players do all the time with smartbombs.  
Would you want CCP to add smartbombing NPCs as well?

FACTION STANDING. You fight an empire and they got angry. There are many solutions, enjoy the game. Humans can find multiple solutions but it is mostly botters that come and complain about how their bots fly right into the trap. Stop botting.

What content? (honest question)

You’re only happy about these becuase you are butthurt about pvp. Not because they provide content.

What is really sad is that that is the only reason it could have been put in the game. Everything we have seen, ECM targeting, this, wardec are all “butthurt designs” that don’t accomplish anything but make butt hurt people feel better.

Stop trying to make it personal. The design sucks and has no purpose whatsoever then to make people who have been killed feel better, which is one of the most idiotic reasons ever to make a change to a game.

It doesn’t stop botting at all.

If its failing at that function, then maybe people should ask for a re-think (which they are constantly, if they haven’t left fw altogether). Or if it’s function has changed, let people know that it has and watch that go down like a lead balloon.

The super ironic thing is that what ails FW is the PVE missions; take out the missions and problem solved.

I mean, I wouldnt mind those gate camps, but just make them not so ultimately OP. Its even impossible to kill those rats, cuz they respawn in 2 sec after their death. Despite the fact that they can die techcnically, they are still more cheaty and disturbing for us than CONCORD is for those unfortunate criminals that jump into HS.

This isn’t balance, isn’t EVE. It is just a cheaty ■■■■. Remove it plz. Or make it realistic and avoidable.

Except that FW, and the game in general is suffering from lack of players, so they ae doing the only thing they can do…replace players with npc’s

- Losing players to lack of player driven content.

- Fix it with more non-player content.

It’s not. Its ongoing world events. Bother reading the in game news.  
Just like incursions it’s because stuff is happening in game. In this case big tensions between Amarr and Minmatar which could lead to changes in the political landscape.

That means nothing mate. It’s just fluff. It’s the equivalent of implementing an idea because someone said ‘wouldnt it be cool if…’ and being inconsiderate of how it affects the actual game.

Incursions have a purpose, rewards, objectives. They ARE the feature, and then the fluff was built around it. These apparently don’t. So how are they the same?

This does not worry me one bit.  
What worries me more is the glorious CCP screw ups these days.  
Warp to 0 and Jump for instance does not result in Jumping at all (like 1 out of 10 times).  
Warp to 0 to a JG, well, it warped my Hauler to 8km distance from it and it just stood there.  
“Q” - Approach not always working, especially when you most need it for pvp.  
Crap got worse basically.

If you were in null and initiated warp when there was a bubble on the gate and the bubble vanished before you landed, you would still land where the edge of the bubble was when you initiated warp.

My playstyle regarding these npc’s is slipping by in my cloaky mission ship. Pvp wise, i just don’t go there.
