Thats right. You heard me. I am sick if the invincible pods. I believe that the odds should be in my favor of killing said pod regardless of his wishes, if I am good enough to come along and trash his ship. I want the pods to. I think its BS I simply have no means of killing them unless you have them in a bubble ( which only works in 0.0, and since I am a empire pirate, I simply have to watch all the pods go. )
It will drain a lot more isk out of the game in the form of implants and cloans, since many more pods would die. This is a good thing.
It will stimulate PVP, and the economey all at once.

Get Inty or frigate/cruiser with sensor booster if you really wish to kill pods. Also train up some twitch skills on quick targeting.
It really quite a thing that its effectively your life you are relying on your pod to save. it wouldn't make sense for an object that small to align and warp so slow. Its all about mass energy equations. Y'know e=mc^2. ------------------------------------- Read my bio ingame for tips on how to live and not be called nasty names by me. |

You know that even when you do catch pods, you just get CONCORDed, right? What you really want is for CONCORD to not punish you? Otherwise just fit some smartbombs, as said.
Also, how does ganking empire pubbies "stimulate PvP"? Unless you mean, "it stimulates my PvP"...

Uhm... no you don't? They're quite allowed to blow up during wars and other killright scenarios. There's a few cases where you may only blow up their ship such as flipping cans, but that's it. Parrots, commence!

If catching pods in Empire is so hard, then why do I see hundreds of pods on various killboards that are in Empire? A fast locker will lock a pod before the lag of changing ships ends...that is, if the victim doesn't know the instawarp trick.
They're called "escape pods" for a reason...

But sadly, even if you have an inty with say, 2 sensor boosters even, using resolution scripts, and a warp disrupter.
If he has an object targetd and sapamming the warp to 0 butting, that inty still will NOT be able to lock and scramble said pod.
I basically want all "OH CRAP" options removed that can save a person. I think more ships need to go boom in general. The game has slowly been slanted to favor deffenders over time.
Its time the game started to favor the attackers.

I've a slightly better idea.
How about putting a DD on all pods? Oh, and give the pod 100% resist vs the racial damage type.
Yes! Well it's better than the OP idea. At least it would be funnier. --

You can pod anything you want, the tools are in-game, you just might have to jump through some hoops to do it. In other words, some friends. Try Sensor boosting and remote sb an inty frig or cruiser (like they said).

Why the hell do you care so much about something so useless? Were they to add implants to pod loss mails, I might have a shred of respect for your idea- but as it is, pod kills mean absolutely nothing.

High sec pvp requires different tactics than 0.0 pvp does, you can't expect to use the same techniques. Besides, isn't that the whole purpose of an "Escape" pod? If they wanted to make the escape pod useless and vulnerable, then they might as well get rid of it all together.

Just rip the *squish* sound from pod death and put it on loop in your favourite media player. Maybe this will help you cope with your frustration.

Lmao Arec this is a damn good idea WTB POD squish sound mp3.
To the OP. Obviously you havn't thought this through. If CCP were to drastically increase the danger to ones pod you would see a decrease of people willing to travel into low sec. Unless they brought with them a formidable gang. So you would effectively be reducing your number of potential targets (probably by a good deal) for the sake of having a greater chance of killing a pod. Of course you can't kill a pod until you've killed the ship and if you don't have as many ships to kill chances are you would be podding less than you are now...brilliant. http://sigs.griefwatch.net/index.php?kb=RAPIAR&name=rapiar&template=icarus |
