Removal of docking rights is great. War should have consequences.
And remember; removing docking rights does not stop you contracting stuff, neither does it stop you using an alt to grab stuff.... OR... *shock horror* dropping militia for a day to move stuff out yourself to somewhere warm and fluffy where you truly belong.
It should provoke some good pew pew - Anyone crying about this change is being totally melodramatic. |

It should provoke some good pew pew - Anyone crying about this change is being totally melodramatic. You think being forced to quit or use neutral alts in lowsec is perfectly fine? I don't know much about Gal/Cal space, but both of the major minmatar alliances currently live in systems that are "Amarrian Sov" but have been occupied by us for ages. Does this stupid change mean that we're all ****** just because it's still "Amarr Sov" even though we've lived in and owned these systems for months and months? The total system station lockout is a load of ballocs and must not go through for the sake of militia. If it does (even if a few small parties think its the best thing ever) I promise it will be the end of FW as we know it today.
Good.
FW as we know it today (especially occupancy part) is bollocks.
I've been in Minmatar militia myself and you've got Auga, Dal and plenty of other systems that people base out of (I based from Bosbogur and Kamela in my time there). Are you really so important you think CCP should look at your case in a special light because you've based from your current home a while? Man up and adapt....
Is it really so game breaking for you and the rest of your militia to move systems until you capture your current home(s) back?
You conveniently dont even acknowledge you could drop militia (with no penalty or even record of doing so if you're worried you'll look crap) if accessing locked items is your beef ... Gosh, 1 day out of militia, how will you survive?
You can base out of a POS if you dont feel capable of keeping your "home", or you could move your home to highsec which is where most other crybabaies live.
At the end of the day, these changes will freshen up FW and give more reasons to fight in plexes. More reasons to pew pew, isn't that why most of us are in FW? |

And I'm glad of some off topic concession rant about my breeding rather than a worthwhile rebuttal.
I'm just glad you've saved me wasting more time on you.  |

I hope you do commit to actually showing up to flip Nisuwa, Heyd and every other base the Gallente use but I'll believe it when I see it.
Your posturing assumes people will treat plexing like they do currently and not bother running them. If it has meaning and a reward (more pew and actual LP) I'm pretty sure people will run them against you, especially in their "home" systems.
I know all you like sitting in one station and pretending you're "home" and it means more than the next system, but I think it won't be particularly difficult to use several "home" systems and prudently have ships in multiple locations (even use a POS in your home system - Shocking I know!), with which to counter and 8 hour rush plexing job.
All you station lockout haters fail to realise this makes FW a lot more interesting and adds more possibilities to the gameplay. My belief is you're all just too myopic to see how this will be good for giving FW consequences and making the war a lot more meaningful. If you had perhaps seen more of the game and been around longer you'd appreciate CCP messing with your particular playstyle is a good thing as it forces you to change, grow, learn new methods and become a better all round player.
It is a change FW needs. |

Why do you think people will start throwing ships at your blobs? People in null sec aren't even doing that and they have much bigger stakes to fight for.
Read my post again, then maybe again....
Notice the "I'll believe it when I see it" yet? - I don't believe the squids have the... will / ability / leadership / fcs / balls [delete as appropriate] to come and directly challenge the Gallente.
Sure they currently sneak about in cloaky ecm burst stabbed nanofagships capping plexes while most Gallente are out looking for proper fights, but if and when they actually challenge Gallente we'll steamroller them in fights (and plexes if needs be) unless they get some influx of new blood in the form of.... fcs / leadership / will / ability / balls.
I for one really hope this happens with these changes as it would spice things up a bit and it well might since FW will maybe appeal to more different people,
Null sec has nothing to do with this, but if you'd ever visited Null you'd know what a blob really is.... FW hasn't had a proper 'blob' since the early days and people crying about blobs really need to get some perspective. |

Not speaking for my corp here, this is my personal opinion - butt I do have quite a few ships and stuff in Nisuwa.
My opinion is if a Sov reset were to lock me out of Nisuwa I could live without those ships for a few days maybe even weeks until we recapture that system....
I also would imagine there would be sufficient time and warning of this reset to be able to move stuff from there to some safer location if needed too, so all the people crying yet again about station lock outs resulting from a reset are being rather lazy.
The historical legacy of the effort put in to capture these systems I do have some sympathy with, and I'd be quite happy for CCP to perhaps convert all those VP to LP for the people who have put the work in in the past, but if a Sov reset is the quickest way to jumpstart FW back into a healthy life then I'm all for it sorry.
Look at the bigger picture before you post. Cheers. |

It would jumpstart FW because the big CCP fanfare will draw new people to FW and the excitement of players starting FW after the patch would quickly evaporate for people if for example they join Gallente and find they hold 1 system on day 1 after the patch.
This overwhelming situation combined with old miserable farts like me and Damar spewing putrid bile at all these new recruits about how fail us Gallente are might put a lot of new recruits off.
If a fresh start (to Sov) with all the pomp and ceremony CCP can muster - pretty trailers of Nyxes crashing into stations etc etc - breathes new life and players into FW I think it would be a positive thing. Not saying it is "fair" or whatever for the people who have put the effort in in the past, which is why I think all those hard earned (lol) VP should perhaps become worthwhile by being converted to LP.
Val, Sasawong, yourself (X G) and Damar would all get a tidy windfalls for their heroic efforts of the past no doubt.  |

Cearin, go get some actual experience before you label everything more than 3 ships a blob. People saying FW will get more and more blobby have said that since day 1 and it has actually gone the opposite direction.
Know your history and get your facts straight then you might have a better chance at predicting the future.
