Astro Jones AJ Corp 6	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:25:00 - [1] - Quote Would be nice and make the game better I think if we could jump 2,3,4 or 5 systems at a time....
ModeratedToSilence Republic Military School Minmatar Republic 87	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:27:00 - [2] - Quote You mean re do the jump gate mechanic? btw Some gates actually let you jump 10+ systems at at a time already
Astro Jones AJ Corp 6	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:30:00 - [3] - Quote Yes, If i want to fly to Jita it's 8 jumps...takes to long and well it just sucks...
Jack Miton Bite Me inc Exhale. 299	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:34:00 - [4] - Quote how about no, scott...
Josef Stylin University of Caille Gallente Federation 52	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:35:00 - [5] - Quote This makes no sense. You should be ashamed of making this thread.
Ginseng Jita Pator Tech School Minmatar Republic 663	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:36:00 - [6] - Quote Easily fixed. Add jumpgate fuel requirements, the further the jump the more fuel it takes. Add cost of ISK for making such a jump. Add special skill training. Jumpgate Navigation - 8x training - level 1 = jump 2 systems. level 5 = jump 10 systems.
Culmen 0utLaw. Northern Coalition. 76	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:39:00 - [7] - Quote You already can. They're called Jump Bridges. Leave high sec if you want to see them. Also Black Ops and Jump Freighters can skip gates. There is a fine line between a post and a signature.
Astro Jones AJ Corp 6	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:39:00 - [8] - Quote I think it's stupid to have to stop go stop go stop go stop go stop go stop go stop go all the way...I guess i don't understand why they made eve this way....
Savage Angel Garoun Investment Bank Gallente Federation 61	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:41:00 - [9] - Quote Actually most all MMO's of Eve's era had the same type of travel mechanic. CCP just refuses to give into the instant gratification crowd (at least too often).

To create natural choke points where fights can happen.
SmilingVagrant GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 385	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:42:00 - [11] - Quote To create a semi sharded environment so you don't have 20,000 on the same single blade server in their datacenter.
SmilingVagrant GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 385	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:42:00 - [12] - Quote To create a system where local chat isn't completely out of control.

Walking must be complete torture for you. Same for public transportation. In fact, driving would be hell too because damn it all those red lights and stuff. If only you could snap your fingers and be wherever you want to be, you would like that, would you not ? Maybe you would not like it, snapping your fingers is probably such a drag.

SmilingVagrant GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 385	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:43:00 - [15] - Quote I can think of a few reasons is what I'm saying.

UO's map was smaller than a single eve system. If you want fast travel train caps and have a few cyno alts and you can literally chain your way across the entire galaxy in a few minutes.
Ituhata Saken Blue Republic RvB - BLUE Republic 245	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:45:00 - [18] - Quote Its how they can say eve is one giant server, in reality each system is its own separate server. When you jump your character is transferred from one server to another. Also it forces fights through a chokepoint system, because having something worth fighting over wasn't good enough. And yes it takes forever. You know what an answer is? It's a terminus -- an end. Answers are fine, but questions are where it's at. Questions bring us closer to understanding, -áthey can start a conversation or spark a revolution. So you might as well start asking... now.-á ~See you on the other side 6/6/12~

I have one account and doubt if i will ever have more...I think it should be a skill you can train :)

To create natural choke points where fights can happen. you mean blind ganks....niice I don't know how to tell you this: But about 95% of eves fighting revolves around a structure in space. Even the big fleet combats tend to occur at gates, stations, or pos. And if you want to DEFEND space, you always try to fight at the gate.

The ability to jump to a point in a system within range at whim would be game breaking.
Thor Kerrigan Guardians of Asceticism 79	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:53:00 - [22] - Quote Is this some fail troll? Seems to me all you want is make YOUR traveling easier with no interest on how it will affect the rest of the game. Length of travel is an extremely relative term. Just asking to make it "shorter" (for free) is as silly as asking CCP to raise bounties on rats for no other reason than you run missions and want more money for less effort.
Mirima Thurander The 8th Tribe Seraphim Dragoons. 288	Posted - 2012.06.05 02:55:00 - [23] - Quote i support this idea, remove jump gates and make us warp from star to star I love the the smell of victory in the morning. It smells like... Blood, vomit and burning flesh.

I'm not asking for that...just the ability to bypass some of the hops....You would still be able to get ganked it just wouldn't take as long to get there LOL

Spy 21 Lonetrek Exploration and Salvage 81	Posted - 2012.06.05 03:12:00 - [27] - Quote And make the universe smaller than it already is. No offense but not supported. S "The next time airport security tells you to put your hands over your head and hold that vulnerable position for seven seconds, ask yourself: Is this the posture of a free man?"

Tallian Saotome Fractured Core Fatal Ascension 787	Posted - 2012.06.05 06:45:00 - [29] - Quote Hey OP, look up the infomorph psychology skill if you want instant travel. Inappropriate signature removed, CCP Phantom.
HaxTis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 62	Posted - 2012.06.05 07:11:00 - [30] - Quote Jump cloning & jump bridges are both valid ways to travel vast distances. With the new 'Jump' command, travel is two clicks a system if you're in highsec. Suck it up, big boy.
