so, i was reading the JB description on eve wiki:
Quote: A jump bridge is a static emplacement that allows a ship to move great distances, without the assistance of anyone else online. These are commonly put into networks, allowing a ship to move up to their 0.0 home quickly.
Jump bridges are set up by player alliances at their POS' in their sovereign space. The placing of these bridges link distant systems in a similar fashion to a stargate. One of the main differences is that the jump bridge uses liquid ozone to fuel the bridge for the jump.
By placing these structures, alliances create a highway system that allows very fast travel through 0.0 space. They are a time saver of immense proportions, and allow for the players to have more access to their home systems deep in 0.0
Jump bridges also facilitate the quick response ability to alliances when attacked. traditionally a system may be 30 jumps from your home system. If you were attacked there, it would take you 30 jumps X (X number of minutes per jump) to get to your destination. With jump bridges, a system 30 jumps away may only be 3 using the jump bridge technology.
So, it sounds good actually, a network of JB that can effectively work just like a Teleporter NPC and send you to one of the near JB with a cost in fuel.
well, WRONG.
this is actually a nerfed way of CCP to give you the chance to "build your own stargates". a JB is only connected to one other JB.
As i read it in the help channel i was enraged. why would CCP give you the chance to look more like other MMO and then scrap it so much? so i need to have 12 jb to go anywhere in my home region isntead of having only 1 per system. well, DANG CCP, you ruined it.
You should have left it like a teleporter NPC that would speak to you and ask for "where would you like the JB to be connected to?" and maybe make it look like a real NPC instead of a cold structure in space.
But don't worry, you're still in time. you can change it CCP, this is your chance. Prove all the other MMO that you can be like em, and give your players what they really ask for, friendly faces and lots of beer.
I will not ask you players and readers what you think, i know that you are thinking the same but are afraid of showing your tender part to the world. DON'T BE AFRAID, THE WORLD WILL LOVE YOU! -----------------------------------------

Edited by: AngryMob Guy1 on 20/01/2010 17:24:00 The reason this game shines so brightly is the fact it is UNLIKE any other MMO out there, seriously speak to ppl that use JB nets daily, and see if they want to speak to generic npc number1, i highly doubt it.
You want a game that is a clone of all the other MMO's you are definitely playing the wrong game.

i don't want a clone, i just want it to look less chaotic and illogical. being different isn't always good you know. -----------------------------------------

Think about what you can do with them, defence, you can create short cuts through your own space to get infront/behind an attacking force, short cuts to empire, or good mining grounds.
The best part is you decide which systems connect to which, i challenge you to find any 0.0 holding alliance that find jb nets chaotic and illogical.
Camping jb arrays with stealthbomber is a whole world of fun

Ummm.. I cant figure out if this dude is ******ed, a troll, or completely serious....
If we wanted teleporter npcs we would go to WoW!
We have mounts, they are called spaceships... jump bridges work just fine, stop your whining..

Your right im not sure now if he is a troll or not.
Concorduck, have you even used them, or, are you just wildly speculating as you cant quite get your head around how beautiful jb nets are?

Stop trolling my thread, i'm not trolling. You are. Inefficently, too.
The system is not efficent, and CCP was all about efficency i heard. i was surprised about it. -----------------------------------------

OK jump bridges might seam inefficient for the requirements for their use, but in the big scheme of things, every single alliance i have known, who holds alot of sov, basically needs jb nets.
The cost of fuel and everything else needed for them is really insignificant, when you can move fleets of guys through say 5 jb's and move say 20+jumps through a region of space. Have you ever tried to escort a frieghter through 20 gates in 0.0?
The pos' that have them anchored are usually very well defended too, so they are like your own personal star gates with sentry guns in 0.0

And what has this to do with jump bridges? Or are you just mindlessly spamming these boards?
To OP: It is up to your alliance to set up its jump bridge network so that there is a significant reduction in travelling time.

I believe he wants jump bridges replaced with an npc who floats in space and teleports you places

Op is as said up top, either a complete wackjob or a total ******.
From your own quoting of EVE wiki: "The placing of these bridges link distant systems in a similar fashion to a stargate."
How in the heavens and earth you can read this as: "Teleport me to any system in the universe where my alliance has a jump bridge." Is just beyond me. However, you might want to consider a few things, first of all; I now have one of those annoying sigs. second; you should probably move on to some more interesting things than reading this sig.
