Melvin Earl Imperial Academy Amarr Empire 11	Posted - 2013.06.30 09:20:00 - [1] - Quote http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMLIolv_rdo As you can see in this video Black Legion and Pizza Alliance uses and exploit to launch a bomb after bridging in to keep the bomb from flying the required 30 kilometers and all the while maintaining an invulnerability timer. So technically it is two exploits at once. I would like to know if this is an exploit or not because if not, I want to make sure everyone else is allowed to activate a bomb module, kill people and never be in any danger of being shot at.
Destination SkillQueue Are We There Yet 5355	Posted - 2013.06.30 09:41:00 - [2] - Quote Even at worst this is the kind of thing, that you're ok to do until CCP either says otherwise or patches things up. Certainly nothing I'd hesitate to do, if I was given the chance.
Radgette New Eden Renegades 35	Posted - 2013.06.30 10:15:00 - [3] - Quote CCP have known about this for over 6 months it's not new at all :p they have actually tried to fix it before iirc It wasn't declared an exploit then so chances of it being declared an exploit now is slim to none.

Good one. how is it not working as intended? jump immunity is something every ship gets until it does something to break that bombs don't travel if the ship is at zero speed I don't see how this is anything but a new valid tactic. but please explain it to me OMG when can i get a pic here

EvE clutter in a ball of dots, then something happens...and people cheer... more like people run to the forums to cry about losing a ship. you can see a fine example of this tactic in the OP.

S Byerley The Manhattan Engineer District 45	Posted - 2013.06.30 11:16:00 - [11] - Quote Anti blob exploit? Sounds like a feature.
Sol Kal'orr TLSG 12	Posted - 2013.06.30 11:49:00 - [12] - Quote No exploit in my (ignorant) opinion. To reiterate other posters: All ships have invuln for 60secs after a session change. That ends when a bomb is dropped. Static bombers produce static bombs. NB: I am an empire pubbie so feel free to correct me.
baltec1 Bat Country 7070	Posted - 2013.06.30 12:01:00 - [13] - Quote Wonder if the op also thinks bridging smartbombing black ops gang onto a drag bubble is an exploit.

Cebraio 4S Corporation RAZOR Alliance 303	Posted - 2013.06.30 13:32:00 - [16] - Quote They lost a full fleet to bombers! This must be an exploit! Oh wait ... happens everyday.
Tore Vest 320	Posted - 2013.06.30 14:48:00 - [17] - Quote who cares I was there... ate all the bombs... and moonwalked out of there with all shield gone No troll.
Scatim Helicon GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 1984	Posted - 2013.06.30 14:53:00 - [18] - Quote Mr Kidd wrote: BTW, a bomb does have velocity independent of the ship that launched it. Yes, but the direction in which that velocity is applied is determined by the direction the launching ship is travelling in. If the ship hasn't yet moved, there's no information on direction for the server to apply to that bomb. Titans were never meant to be "cost effective", its a huge **.-á- CCP Oveur, 2006 ~If you want a picture of the future of WiS, imagine a spaceship, stamping on an avatar's face. Forever.
Marlona Sky D00M. Northern Coalition. 3955	Posted - 2013.06.30 15:37:00 - [19] - Quote The whole 'no velocity on bombs' doesn't really bother me. What does concern me is after a ship bridges in it is NEVER invulnerable, yet a lot of people are reporting that bomber who do bridge in and immediately launch a bomb triggers a glitch to cause the same invulnerability timer as if you jumped through a gate. I'm pretty sure that is not 'working as intended', but that is CCPs call to make. .

It's just that travelling 30km along the vector [0,0,0] doesn't do much.

Seems logical to me, I've never had a cloak to hold after coming out of a bridge, I don't see why I'd have a 30 second immunity timer coming through a bridge as well.

You don't have a cloak when undocking either, but you still have a timer. The two are not connected and serve rather different purposes.

Kijo Rikki Powder and Ball Alchemists Union The Predictables 419	Posted - 2013.06.30 15:57:00 - [23] - Quote Alright, that makes sense. I have no experience to relate to that might verify that personally. I've never been in the presence of hostiles on the end of a titan bridge yet.

Khanh'rhh GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 1890	Posted - 2013.06.30 17:56:00 - [29] - Quote Well this is Marlona "don't know aggression mechanics" Sky, so you really shouldn't listen to him The zero velocity thing is pretty clunky, but you can't fix it without requiring that ships first move before launching, and I think that's likely hard to code on-top of the existing mechanics, as well as rather unnecessary. - Flight of 1000 Rifters I "Do not touch anything unnecessarily. Beware of pretty girls in dance halls and parks who may be spies, as well as bicycles, revolvers, uniforms, arms, dead horses, and men lying on roads -- they are not there accidentally." -Soviet infantry manual, issued in the 1930
TheGunslinger42 All Web Investigations 1451	Posted - 2013.06.30 18:31:00 - [30] - Quote pretty sure launching the bomb causes invuln to drop, so the only issue left is that the bomb is stationary which seems pretty minor to me
