Im not going anywhere. Im going to begin a lobby to change EVE into the game it advertises itself as. And if you don't like that feel free to create your lobby to counter it. But it would appear politics are the only form of communication the community listens to. So slowly but surely ill siphon like minds to the idea and we're going to go from there. And if you don't like that maybe you need a new game to play. |

So you say want an "open and mature discussion" start a thread with "grow some balls", harp on and on about how the only way to fix things is to remove local in its entirety, throw a hissy fit when people point out the fact you're blatantly ignoring the negative effect it'll have on literally all sec levels, call them names and try literally every trick in the book to drive them away, and still manage to continue to spout the following:

Actually I remember a time when Local had no pretty colors and no standings at all. All standings where controlled by a separate website. And I found no joy in that system at all.
I so have zero interest in sitting by a gate all day just so I can tag someone as they enter a system.
If people want to fight they will come out and fight. I have no interest playing hide in seek.
EVE already has a no local section and I don't see the masses streaming there to enjoy that utopia.
And of course the first place that will see no local will be null. And I don't the null alliances crying up a storm like they normally do if there is a mechanic they really want or don't like.
If anything by past rants and raves I here crickets for no local.

Wormholes require a skillset and a level of commitment and effort most people don't bother with. Im one of them. There are too many other things I like to do in EVE that a wormhole makes tedious. So I reject your argument that because everyone doesn't jump in a wormhole that local doesnt neuter every other forementioned feature EVE hypes and fails to live up to.
And a side point your premise that if people don't want to fight they should be able to endlessly avoid it (by having infallible intel) goes against NON CON SEN TUAL pvp.

I myself are for the removal of local in null.
I believe that empire space both Hi- and low sec should have Local. It is empire space formed of trillions of citizens and an economy size to match.
Null is at best formed by groups of thousands of people they are not an empire but just alliances. Their Economies pale by comparison.
The removal of local from Null will make surprise attacks by people well surprising. It will give covert ops ships a real function in the game, the ability to sneak into enemy space undetected. It would remove a lot of gate camps(who will gate camp if you don't know in advance you are about to get jumped by a larger force.
Some people have stated that they want Null space to be even safer for them all I can say is that Null is meant to be tough lawless space and just because you pay Sov it should still be dangerous. Much like a Roman garrison on a frontier was or a fort in the United states. You made your encampment to make things safer than they were to start but they were never as safe as in a city. This change will mean that like forts in history, defenses will have to be mounted in specific places by corps in Null sec not just spread out, they will have to pick there battles. Any Spelling, gramatical and literary errors made by me are included free of charge.
Local Channel in Null must Die. Jump Drives need Nerfing. Null is meant to be dangerous and hard. Not safe and boring. |

Appealing to ridicule. My confidence grows. The dissenters strongest weapon they can wield is snarky paragraphs full of fallacies. The truth will win out. It always does.
That being said, hauling fuel, pos operation, limited piracy, limited targets, scanning skills (of which I actually have) are just a few reasons wormholes aren't for many. For me updating market orders pickups deliveries and such would be more hassle than I care to endure. |

Freighters could be caught during a war dec. Freighters could get through during a war dec.
You would still have Concord retaliation in high sec. You could still be camped, though if you break the camp it would be harder to hunt you down. Certainly no worse that what we have now but with compelling gameplay.
It would solve cloaky camps people complain about. It would give a point to cloaks of which people complain about.
It would make neutral alts almost irrelevant. Though not 100%. It would certainly make playing with one account a lot less of a disadvantage. Sure you might lose a few alt account subs, but you would gain many more subs by having more compelling gameplay. What good is a scout profession when they're revealed as soon as they enter system?
The changes the expansion are bringing aren't going to revitalize low sec or null sec and its certainly not going to promote or fuel war. Quite the opposite.
The devs and the playerbase talk a lot about EVE being hardcore, but as of yet i'm not really seeing the hardcore aspect to the game.
The game is a boring campfest. Removing local removes that to a large degree.
To my ultra Orthodox carebear players, uncle Caliphy isn't throwing you under the bus. The threats you worry about occuring with this change would actually be resolvable by a merc corporation. If you are decced and you hire a merc the merc cannot sneak up on the enemy with everything displayed for them. They may be able to make your tormentors life a little more difficult but in most cases can't force a fight under those conditions. With no local they could. If you are camped by a griefdec and you hire a reasonably sized merc to help you the griefer will never see them coming. It's win/win.
Even null entry points would be camped far less. Lets see the thirty man bubble camp consistently do it when a 150 man roaming gang warps in on them and they never see it coming.
Local is holding EVE back. Period. Get rid of it and let EVE become great.
I'm glad you think so.

So something which takes a normal person a few hours a week is "too much hassle", but your idea of "fair and balanced" is something which meant that one guy either had to have one cloaky alt for each gate (and keep an eye on all of them at the same time), or he has to get the same amount of guys to watch the gates for him, and make no isk while doing so. And then he still had to hope nobody'd pulled a logoffski.
Fair and balanced. |

Yep, and now you may start the thinking-process .... i know its hard for carebears to imagine what life in null is but --- have this hint :
- without industrial efforts, your alliance / corp will run dry within weeks
- without PvP efforts, you will receive free b.uttsecks within weeks
Might as well try it sometime, you will be surprised |

Your point hardly makes your case that Wormholes are only avoided by lazy people if you are now saying that people in Wormholes need have market alts to be able to easily access markets.

Not really and sure as hell not the same way.
- Your front door doesn't change so you can find a path there from any k-space area in the game. - You can set a destination point and simply "follow the dots" to that place - but not in W-space. - Cyno's don't work so you can't just bounce to a spot with a JF, bridge in/out with other ships - so on and so forth. - You can't decide that your front door is pointing at too dangerous a spot so you collapse it. - Entering a gate, you appear "OFF" the gate at range. Entering a WH, you are in click-out range of the entrance/exit; so camps? ...
etc.
WH life is both more and less dangerous than other parts of the game. That "no local" is just one aspect of it and if they normalized the rules for WH space and null - the game would play radially different.
No - removal isn't a solution, not without some form of replacement. |
