Vimsy Vortis Shoulda Checked Local Break-A-Wish Foundation 802	Posted - 2012.10.08 22:19:00 - [1] - Quote James 315 wrote: Two step wrote: I see Poetic is off his meds again. You seem to be forgetting all the stuff CCP did that helped suicide gankers, like Tier 3 BCs, the destroyer buffs, etc. How did that help suicide gankers? Tier 3 BCs and destroyers are cheaper than battleships and cruisers, but if you simultaneously remove insurance (which CCP did), the "help" goes away. Coupled with the mining barge changes the destroyer buff and T3 battlecruisers are completely moot points. In fact destroyers are even less effective at ganking barges now than they were before the destroyer buff.
Vimsy Vortis Shoulda Checked Local Break-A-Wish Foundation 802	Posted - 2012.10.08 22:40:00 - [2] - Quote Don't worry, I mean it's not like CCP has totally gutted every type of non-consensual PVP in highsec over the last year or anything. Oh wait.
Vimsy Vortis Shoulda Checked Local Break-A-Wish Foundation 803	Posted - 2012.10.08 22:44:00 - [3] - Quote I'm sure they'll get to work on it ASAP. Can't have people playing the game at each other.
Vimsy Vortis Shoulda Checked Local Break-A-Wish Foundation 804	Posted - 2012.10.08 23:46:00 - [4] - Quote I don't care about nullsec gameplay at all. I just think that the most effective way to kill a carebear in highsec shouldn't be to join their corp with my awoxing alt. There should be some kind of sane, working, properly implemented mechanic that I can use to do that.
Vimsy Vortis Shoulda Checked Local Break-A-Wish Foundation 804	Posted - 2012.10.09 01:36:00 - [5] - Quote Ranger 1 wrote: LIke, say, the ability to set and collect bounties on upstanding high sec players... or perhaps transferable kill rights? Now where did I recently hear about those very things.... Neither of those two things have any affect on anything. 99% of the reasons why someone wants some other person to die don't involve kill rights at all, bounties are irrelevant because A) there are no mechanics that enable you to collect them and B) people pay you money up front to kill individuals anyway. None of the patches or expansions this year introduce any new ways for people to actually do violence to each other, rather they've made existing means of doing violence less effective and less attractive to a person looking to do violence. Rather, Inferno wardec mechanics make wars vastly more expensive for both individuals looking to wage war (due to the increased costs) and to people looking to hire mercenaries (because of the increased costs associated with both the actual cost increase and the increased risk of both allies and mutal war related exploits). And now crimewatch 2 will make aggression related ways to ruin people's **** into a giant clusterfuck. All of the PVP related features this year that affect highsec make PVP in highsec vastly less viable and neither of your ideas help either.
Vimsy Vortis Shoulda Checked Local Break-A-Wish Foundation 813	Posted - 2012.10.09 10:18:00 - [6] - Quote It's kind of telling that you assume that everyone in highsec is unprepared and not expecting a fight. This is EVE, it's advertised as an open PVP game, if people can get away with being unprepared and not expecting to have to fight at any point then there is a problem.
Vimsy Vortis Shoulda Checked Local Break-A-Wish Foundation 816	Posted - 2012.10.10 00:47:00 - [7] - Quote I'm pretty sure that by this point sharks, cars and coconuts have all been removed from highsec.

I shouldn't have to go no null for you to kill me over and over and that is our entire complaint.
Vimsy Vortis Shoulda Checked Local Break-A-Wish Foundation 822	Posted - 2012.10.11 01:16:00 - [10] - Quote It was the expansion that must not be named.
Vimsy Vortis Shoulda Checked Local Break-A-Wish Foundation 856	Posted - 2012.10.16 19:45:00 - [11] - Quote I can't even fathom how making it player versus player conflict more difficult in a game marketed entirely on various types of player versus player conflict seems like a good idea to anyone, regardless of which particular variety of space it happens in. I guess that's just how far removed the trains of thought of people who actually want to play EVE and the people who want to play world of warcraft with spaceships are.
