Thou shalt not kill

Can-¦t wait to be stuck somewhere until dt because they wont kill my pod and I can-¦t self destruct.

or spend a few hours in a scrammed carrier while team B tries to round up enough DPS to finish you off

People actually use the self destruct feature so they don't appear on a killboard? That's kind of pathetic, really

CCP does not have an official killboard for a reason.

Because they know KBs are stupid.

So, if all you desperate *****'s could stop asking them to change their game to support third party applications, that would be just grand.

Thanks

Self Desrtucting to prevent enemy getting loot or satisfaction of the kill etc is perfectly legitimate.

Petition CCP to give you a killmail even when a ship self destructs if you care so much about it but don't ask for a perfectly legit game device to me removed because you cannot live without your precious killmail.

Even Starfleet vessels have a self destruct mechanism and they are about as carebear as they come

come from your **** alliance, no wonder

I always lol at KB-Humpers. Who frigging cares? SD is a legitimate tactic, get over it. Want the KM? Bring more DPS! Honestly, fail PvPers are the biggest whiners of them all.

The only real issue of self-destruct is that you receive insurance from it.

Remove insurance payment for self-destruct. That's the same as me blowing up my own car on purpose and receiving money for it.

Hello

Self-destruction, sometimes useful thing, but not during a fight!

Needs to be changed to stop the paranoia that exists in EVE, where the fleet carriers or dreds, doing self-destruction and the KB is perhaps 1-2 ships, but in fact fell in 10 times as much.

In most cases, when a small gang, attack carriers or dreads it ends in self-destruction, because in 2 minutes are not able to kill him.

This spoils the statistics KB, but also causes doubt in the sense of the game among players.

My proposals for changes:

When the vessel is lock target, or in a bubble, it is not possible to attach self-destruction.
If self-destruction was included earlier, in the meantime, the ship will be lock target or in a bubble, self-destruction turns off.

Significantly improved by all the fun.

Another option is when the ship will receive some DMG and it will activate the self-destruction is the killboard (auto api)

CCP what you say?

Let's be honest, the people self destructing are the KB humpers.

Working as intended. Stop worrying about some stats website and play the game..

I don't think anyone wants self destructs removed entirely, however two minute SDs for both rifters and wyverns makes little sense. SD timers should scale with ship size.

Why do killmails even really matter.

Supercapital logoff was balanced, self-destruct is next in line.

That said, yes, SDs could probably be made to provide kill mails just to prove the ship loss, but such a mail should also still be intel-free.

I see no problems with removing insurance payouts altogether. vOv

Suggested changes to SD mechanics:

- no insurance
- destroys pod
- not possible inside a POS force field
- timer is 10 minutes under aggression (2min without)

Rework self destruction such that when the timer expires, it delivers a huge amount of damage to the ship. This woukd be, combat damage, caused by the ship/pilot to iteslf, weapon listed as self destruct, final blow goes to pilot. This would generate a killmail without reducing the functionality.

So.. you'd get your own killmail?

then why do ppl SD if they don't worry about stats??

... I can't have anything to acknowledge my work.

imagine you went to college for 4 yrs and don't any certificate to put into your resume

I don't care about either km or loot. I want proof that this guy lost ship to me and shamelessly selfdestruct it

You care way, way too much about killboards is the issue, not self-destructing.

Because it pisses people off...

Self destructing is a tactical choice and should not be removed or result in a kill mail. Being able to destroy your ship to deny your enemy loot, salvage, and killmail/intel is a valid tactic.

the only change that i could understand is the length of timer based on the size of the ship. also, the message that all players on grid see when one initiates self destruct should be removed and damage should be dealt to any other ship near an explosion from self destruct or combat.

Edit: remove insurance pay out as well

Remove all killmails. You want intel, check someone's wreck.

No I think CCP should improve self destruct and make it an actual tactic.
Self destruct should do damage to ships around it like a smart bomb except a lot bigger depending on the ship size.

I could care less if it is on a kill mail but if people want it I don't see any reason why not.

But definitely make a self destruct an actual tactic if need be.

I also wouldn't mind seeing some stats from CCP Diagoras on the number of supers that have self destructed in the past.

I'm pretty sure CCP has stated that they intend to add self-destruct killmails in the future.

I honestly don't care if KMs are removed, but I think it's silly that people self destruct to avoid them.

I've seen entire fleets self destruct before to avoid KB losses, instead of trying to take down as much of the enemy with them as possible. I also wouldn't mind seeing some stats from CCP Diagoras on the number of supers that have self destructed in the past.

I understand keeping it as a way to annoy those attacking, and to prevent those "I'ma hold you in space" kind of tactics, but it should at least always show a loss mail and probably shouldn't pay insurance. Encouraging people to not fight back is silly.

Just remove killmails - problem solved.
