Seems CCP really do want to kill solo/small gang warfare. How suprising...

Perhaps instead of this implementation there could be another? Something like a computer processor percentage bar for your scanner?
Like overloading modules - if you overuse the scanner (i.e. constantly spam it for too long while say ... idk... macro mining in a belt) it renders it unuseable for a long period of time (30/40seconds maybe even a minute.... maybe you even have to dock up and repair it or have some nanite paste handy).
It could have a quick cool down period if you haven't overloaded the scanner cpu unit but a long one if you have.
This could potentially allow a scout warping around to use the scanner quickly for a while until the pilot leaves warp and has to start actually piloting his ship - clicking buttons other than the scan button - allowing it to cool down.
With this in place an active miner in a belt (who isn't macro mining and actually watching local) can use the scanner in the same way as a scout to avoid being caught. However, a macro would not be able to constantly spam the scanner without actually breaking it.
Encourages active play from both hunter and gatherer - penalizes macro players.
This might actually be the best idea ive read in a long time. P.S. Make a cooler cyno effect more like the old one. Thats totally a game changing nerf for me :P

Please lets get something done about this NOW. This issue is just another kick in the stomach for people who have loved this game for years.

I am not a pirate and never have been. I also know for a fact the OP is not a pirate. Please check your records, I'm sure you meticulously keep track of all the pirates.
Originally by: Nidhiesk Theres more than the D-scan you know...
Yes there are, there are guns. But you need the directional scanner in order to find people to use them. If you seriously think using probes are a viable mechanic to find someone in a belt then you clearly have never tried.

Originally by: Nidhiesk tl/dr version: if your hunting or roaming in low sec or a somewhat populated system, no change imo (I said imo remember). but if your trying to find someone really quickly ..your busted lol.
You really have never left highsec have you...
Finding people really slowly is not my idea of acceptable in any 0.0 system. The only systems you would ever be able to stay under the local radar long enough are heavily populated outpost systems (and thats only if you name happens to start with G-Q). In any 'normal' population 0.0 system you have no chance at all simply because you pop up in the big warning window that is local chat as soon as you enter.

This thread needs more highsec mission runners expressing their well valued opinions.
Here's an idea, get rid of highsec lvl 4 missions. It probably wont fix lag but at least then some people might leave Motsu and actually play the game.

LOL Yeah... Sure.. G-G-G-GAME BRRRRRREAKER!!!!!!
Not quite.
Just because you all decide to cry in the same place, doesn't mean it matters. CCP will just look at the accounts all these ragetoons are on and see it's only a hundred or two of the same butthurt (butt)pirates.
In fact CNN has a pic on the innernets of CCP sitting in a bar laughing at you right now
Quoting someone who hasnt worked out how eve works yet. Go back to your missions.

All accounts going inactive in a few days, I honestly cant think of any reason to resub. I have loved and defended this wonderful game for roughly four years, I now have trouble seeing any reason to keep playing.
From the beggining my main character has specialised in all things small, fast and cloaky. This required lots of SP and plenty of actual player skill to pull off well.
*Bang - The nano nerf hit and at first I hated it, then i adapted. I still dont like it but I suppose it makes some small sense in a game balance perspective.
This made small gang pvp mutch harder and instead you had to rely more on evading from the beggining rather than running.
*Bang - All cruiser sized ships were made to warp slower thus making them easier to catch while trying to evade.
At first I hated it, then i adapted. I still dont like it but i suppose it makes some small sense in a game balance perspective.
So if you want to fight in cruisers, the only way to do it is with logistics. If you still want to try and go solo you have to take a native cloaker.
*Bang - All native cloakers have a massive cloak delay after jumping, you cannot pulse your MWD and cloak to get back to the gate if you happen to run into anything above a tiny bubble camp. Thus negating the entire point of native cloakers as _**COVERT OPS**_ or _**RECON**_ ships.
At first I hated it, then i adapt... oh wait... they rolled that one back due to stupidity.
So all is happy in the world of the small gang pvp'er, well, youve poured sour milk over everything I like but meh. I still defend you EVE online because I love you. In the end I know you only want whats best for me... me and all the ravens and drakes in Motsu.
*BANG - After all the mechanics set into motion to make it almost impossible to roam in a small gang CCP in their infinate wizdom also make it near damn impossible to find anyone in a system in any reasonable amount of time.
NO.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
I'm tired of defending you Eve online. I'm tired because the game I have loved for all these years has turned out to be something I dont play anymore. All I ever do is log on and try to justify why you hate me and others like me so mutch.
QQ - Its been fun.

Hey, just checking to see if CCP are actually aware this thread exists.
Im going to swear now, I'd appreciate it if no player actually reports this and wait to see if a moderator will read it.
