I've been on the Singularity server for a few weeks now, it's nice, you can just go head to head with everyone and nobody gets pissed off at anyone, you can build ships for chump change and you just get more isk back from the insurance, then you ever needed to put it together.
Awesome.
However, i did make me realize something. I have only once won a battle, literally only once. Every other time, i either got killed because the ship i had to fight was several classes higher then me ( BS vs Dread for example ), or because i got outnumbered HEAVILY.
Now on that last bit there, about being outnumbered, it annoys me greatly ( not whining though ). Every time i stand a chance of winning a fair fight, some other chaps warp in, target me and start firing away.
Of course, on SiSi it's all just fun and games ( although i must admit that for some, it's very serious somehow, which is pathetic ), but this kind of stuff also happens ( a lot of the time ) on Tranq, where it is much less fun and games and very much more frustration and anger ( for a lot of players ).
My point is, although i don't mind about this at all on SiSi, i have absolutely zero trouble, seeing how ridiculous and perhaps even unfair people might find it on Tranq.
Now perhaps it might be an idea, to make a little change in CONCORD response times, more people firing at you, means CONCORD arrives faster.
I know I'm going to get a lot of crap thrown at me for saying this, but i don't give a shyte. If you had the balls and the skill to take someone on 1v1 and come out on top, well then 10 points to you, if you need 2 or 3 or even more mates to do it.... you're just pathetic and you deserve to be shot 1 nanosecond after opening fire.
Thank you for reading and good day. If a man speaks his mind in the forest and no woman hears him, is he still wrong? |

You are always outnumbered.
The fact that this is sisi makes it irrelevant.
Chances are people will not comes so easily to help if it was not on sisi but on Tran.
I also hate the fact that for some people sisi is not about testing but about risk free pvp as you make it sound. I'm not a Pirate, I'm a Terrorist.

The easiest way to win a fight is to outnumber your opponent. The hard way is to play solo. It is your choice how you chose to play but this is EVE and most people really don't like to lose fights. |

Your argument is exactly what is the drive for most pirate style players, which at the same time, is exactly what i meant. Maybe CCP should try to discourage many vs little PvP in some sort of way and i think the CONCORD idea i proposed could actually help out a lot.

So you're essentially saying, that 3 or more pirates attacking 1 Orca ( just for example ) and winning, automatically makes you a good PvP'r? If a man speaks his mind in the forest and no woman hears him, is he still wrong? |

True, but that wasn't really what the post was/is about.
Cannibal Kane wrote:Chances are people will not come so easily to help if it was not on sisi but on Tran.
Which makes it even worse on Tranq, cause the people attacking are usually already prepared to die, while the people that "could" defend, will only have more doubt
Cannibal Kane wrote:I also hate the fact that for some people sisi is not about testing but about risk free pvp as you make it sound.
CCP has even setup an entire system on SiSi, just for this. Edit: Duality is the server used for all the actual testing, SiSi is for fooling around and the mass tests every once in a while.
Anyway, nice seeing you on the forums every once in a while man, haven't seen you in game a lot lately. If a man speaks his mind in the forest and no woman hears him, is he still wrong? |

PvP in Eve isn't just about winning the fight, it is about avoiding the fights you can't win, and finding targets you can win against. If someone has the patience to hunt down and find an Orca that they can freely attack then that took some skill or patience.
Either that or the Orca pilot was really dumb.

Hmmmm, a rather interesting and perhaps true way of looking at it.
By the way, i got shot by CONCORD last night for warp scrambling a target, perhaps i missed the update notes which stated this had become a crime? or does it have something to do with the system sec rating? ( not including low sec, cause i know CONCORD doesn't go there ) If a man speaks his mind in the forest and no woman hears him, is he still wrong? |

And to answer your question from earlier, no, that wasn't what I was saying, that is what you are saying, do us all a favor and don't speak for me. I have a preference for ships that shoot back so to me a good pvp fight is one you walk away from, a great pvp fight is one you crawl away from with 1 hit point left. |

You are incorrect about the purpose of Duality and SiSi.
Duality is for specific, scheduled mass testing of a particular mechanic or bug fix.
SiSi is for general testing of the new features that will be coming out in the next update or expansion. People use it as a test bed to try new ships or tactics "for free", and that's fine, but not really the main purpose of the server. When I check troll in the dictionary, it has a photo shopped picture of you standing somewhere in the vicinity of a point.
Also, I can kill you with my brain. |

Worst thread in a long time, and that is saying something.
So basically, in a SANDBOX GAME you want to induce an arbitrary rule that if the server decides you outnumber the opponent, CONCORD shows up and fucks you up?
This is incredibly naive.
So what happens if 5 people attack my 5 people .. I can just warp 4 away and have CONCORD fight my battles?
There is so much wrong with this, both on a conceptual level and one of implementation that I literally don't know where to start.

Remember, sisi is a There will be superfriends teams running their tests, or the strange people who think a sisi km means anything. There are specific rules for sisi which make it ideal for 1 v 1 combat. Want to do 1v1, give a shout and fight anybody then have consentual pvp not at the combat beacons of the pvp system. Pvp is allowed outside the beacons providing is consentual
Under this rule, if you agree to a 1v1, if somebody else comes and helps or interferes, that is petitionable as a violation of the Sisi rules. Provided the combat wasn't at a CA beacon. |

Pretty sure all offensive EWar is a criminal action. Otherwise newbie missioners would be plagued with people scanning them down, webbing/scramming/target painting them and scooping the resulting loot.
Oh, and enforced arena dueling isn't allowed because it'd ruin world pvp, probably. Atleast that's the experience with other MMOs. Why take the risk of going on a roam when you can get a guaranteed "fair" fight much more conveniently. |

I find it ironic that you would use rules pertaining to an organization that promotes fighting in a one on one format, even going so far as to exclude the rule "Only two men to a fight." in order to make PvP in Eve seem edgy or cool. Eve and WoW are two games I would NEVER expect a fair fight.

If you fight 1v1 one on the test server you are guarenteed that your opponent will have
1. Booster alt 2. full set of pirate implants 3. be full of drugs 4. be overheating the entire time

Well that's nifty I guess that you find the list ironic. This list is a variation of one I made for AOC, the main differences being that I didn't allow smacktalk and there was no pad camping. Personally I never expect a fair fight in any game. It's human behavior for competitive people to find any advantage they can, even if it includes cheating. This isn't a cheat though, outnumbering your opponent has been a long time strategic advantage. |
