Jim Raynor	Posted - 2003.08.15 06:41:00 - [1] Edited by: Jim Raynor on 15/08/2003 06:42:27 Pirates should be able to move through empire space.. just not able to hang around for long. If you want to police Eve let the players do it, not SUPER NPC BATTLESHIPS AND SENTRY GUNS. It's retarded currently, sorry. ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE
Jim Raynor	Posted - 2003.08.15 07:12:00 - [2] Concord ships and Sentry guns doing FOUR HUNDRED is overkill. I pity a pirate in a cruiser or lesser ship. ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE
Jim Raynor	Posted - 2003.08.15 07:24:00 - [3] Anyone remember Ultima Online? Remember how guards would instantly spawn on murderers in towns and kill them? That's sorta of like what Concord and Sentry Guns are now. UO was one of the first MMO games on the market and made a lot of mistakes.. the instant spawn one shot one kill guards were one of them. Let's not make the same mistake, CCP. ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE

We don't use drones to lag people, we use them for combat. Why would we train Drone5 and use Heavy Drones if they weren't for combat? I mean, if I just wanted to lag people, I would deploy basic miners.. ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE
Jim Raynor	Posted - 2003.08.15 09:16:00 - [5] Quote: Edited by: Photon on 15/08/2003 07:53:38 well i think a pirate dumb enough to try to enter a 1.0 space should feel the consequenses. You pirates argue in other posts that when you enter 0.0 space you are not safe and should not be secure by police at all. When then listen to our side of the story, when you enter 1.0 space you enter a totally secure system, guarded with claws and teeth and a wanted pirate getting in is just not gonna happen Player pirates don't automatically swoop on you before you even have time to finish the loading screen in 0.0 space, hit you for 400dmg, warpscramble, and webify you.. atleast give pirates a way to move through empire space if they keep moving and don't stop. Passing through empire space is one thing, killing newbies in 1.0 empire space is another.. ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE

Sorry but I don't have enough time a day in Eve to go 99 jumps for any reason.. Look man, you obviously want Concord to fight your battles for you. Maybe if you people got off your duffs you could combat piracy. Blockade running is so very easy that it's actually becoming pretty lame to be a pirate nowadays. I'm not for podding people in 1.0, I think it's extremely lame (unless it's some stupid AFK industrial) to kill rookie ships or anyone really new to Eve. ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE
Jim Raynor	Posted - 2003.08.15 09:28:00 - [7] Quote: to put it this way, if i entered a back alley of a city i wouldn't know if something bad was gonna happen. If a wanted criminal went into a police station things would happen quite fast. i can agree that there should be some decent de-tours tough Then CCP needs to give us realistic ways to go region to region without having to pass through your sacred empire space. 90-100 jumps to go anywhere isn't realistic, that's like 4-5 hours of travelling. I don't have ten hours to go back and forth to different regions.. do you? This is a game afterall. ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE
Jim Raynor	Posted - 2003.08.15 09:37:00 - [8] Quote: Thats like saying "Don't hassle that murderous fugitive if he's just running away". If you enter a high security system you SHOULD be pounced on immediately. Your victims get the same quarter when 'passing through' your 0.0 systems. Instagank is stupid and lame, sorry if don't realize this. Quote: Like has been mentioned already, maybe its time to dust down the map and 'prefer less secure'. Get your goods from the low sec system markets. There's only 24 hours in a day, I can't spend ten of them playing Eve. I have a job, I can't devote that kind of time to move my ship from point A to B. Now of course you can get around the empire space issue using alts and courier missions but still, it would be nice of "less secure" routes were more realistic logistically. ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE
Jim Raynor	Posted - 2003.08.15 09:48:00 - [9] Running blockades isn't hard for the not so clueless. I'm sorry you fall into the clueless category and don't know how. You always have a good shot at beating a blockade. You have basically zero chance at going through empire space now as a pirate. It's only a minor inconvience as you can use alternate characters to courier your items.. but still, the concord super sentry guns and ships are just lame. ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE
Jim Raynor	Posted - 2003.08.15 09:54:00 - [10] Quote: so you mean i have a chanse of getting trough a 20 battleship bloackade with the nerfed mwd? u get a clue then... Yes you can, get a clue. I ran through blockade of 4 battleships and 2 cruisers once without using a MWD. Though unless you have a Scorpion that probably wouldn't work. =] ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE

Jim Raynor	Posted - 2003.08.15 09:56:00 - [11] Quote: i use bookmark and jump in 1 sec :) and i see pirates to get **ed off :) Not really **ed off, I'm quite used to people basically bypassing every blockade now. It's way more common for people to bookmark past you than it is to actually kill someone these days. CCP has ruined pirating, no wonder people are going to 1.0 to kill AFKers. ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE
Jim Raynor	Posted - 2003.08.15 11:04:00 - [12] Quote: Quote: Not really ***ed off, I'm quite used to people basically bypassing every blockade now. IMO, that's because you're always blockading the same system. If you guys moved around a bit, some hapless traders would get a really* nasty awakening. Everyone and his mother has a bookmark for FD-MLJ and PF-346 by now. Those who don't should rightfully avoid the place if they see pilots hanging around on the map screen. And the rest are idiots. I'm aware. Unforuntaly hanging out in a system where no one is gonna pass for hours vs a system where 90% of the people have a bookmark but you can still nail 10% of them is a trade off. Most systems get no traffic, at all. ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE
