HAHAHAHAHAHa

What a gigantic douche dildo of an idea. Let's make a deployable which is used for sov carrier ratting carebears anchorble in w-space.

how about it requires sov to anchor.

This, honestly, will be the end of wormholes. Already I get more PVP than most of the know-nothing useless gusset stains who QQ on here, but that's because the ESS isn't widespread knowledge. Soon even one as mighty as I will have to settle for <20 kills a month, mostly in dullsec, when every idiot and his alt can anchor an ESS on any and all wormholes.

Cheeses, CCP. Get with the program you dullards.

No, our corp will get more than 20 kills per month. This just means we'll start targeting for eviction any corp we catch using these in w-space to be risk averse.

Now I have to anchor one.

End-of-Line does not evict PvP corps, and I wouldn't dare attempt to evict Adhocracy.

What I mean is, we will consider use of the ESS as a high priority when determining what carebear corp gets removed from C5 space each month. We do monthly evictions... October, November, and December thus far. We've missed January since we moved earlier this month and need a break. We will however begin doing them towards the end of January/beginning of March.

The question is, will the CSM be able to get them to fix this?

Yes and that is great that it got noticed by someone on the CSM. It also takes almost no time to fill out an in game bug report and I would recommend everyone doing that as well.

That depends on whether or not there's an overwhelming consensus about it. Honestly, I'm not wholly convinced that it needs to go. It provides a very new mechanic and we're not sure how much that will be used or to whose advantage. Clearly there's a strong negative trend about it so far, but I don't want to just reject any new content because it's new and it's not exactly what we asked for.


Yeah I mentioned it in the Superfriends chat yesterday as well. :D

So, you are saying, as our representative of the wormhole community, you support warnings IN LOCAL to let people bear in safety?

Good luck on the next election cycle. I honestly expected better out of SSC...

the thing defiles everything we love about wormhole pvp. this makes our pvp even harder to get than it already is. Local isnt a thing I dot ant it to be a thing... The CSM should be rallying to make our space better not worse. If we allow this thing to saty we might as well embrace and allow all the other stupid deployables to be made

wormhole stbillizer

wormhole jump bridge

wormhole cyno

wormhole local activator.

ALL of it

just dont allow it to be anchored some distance from WH, problem solved

The standard 3000 km and i will be a happy Wormholer

Agree

Forwarding info to CCP. I hope it gets fixed as free intel should not be on the table in wspace.

Thanks Chitsa.

This needs to be removed form wspace asap. All it will do if it remains is reduce risk for people bearing. For those people saying it gives you a kill mail; I for one would rather have ships to kill not structures.

@ James: "unconvinced this needs to go" WTF?

If you ask me, it's time for CCP to go back to working on Walking-In-Stations full time, every developer, everybody that can hold a pencil or click a mouse button! Every cotton-picking one of them.

Chitsa save us pls.

I support :emergentgameplay:, and I don't want to immediately reject whatever new content isn't purpose built for us.

Right now I'm most likely going to advise CCP to add the same anchor distance limitation as exists for stations. Other options would be to disallow anchoring in wspace entirely, or to turn off the local broadcasting, but I like the fact that I can drop one at the star and anyone dumb enough to warp to it has just announced themselves in local.

You sir, will not be getting my vote again...
