I'm still waiting -- how can a player protection gang match CONCORD in terms of providing security to a space? Come on, we're waiting.
If you have 20 people in local then your interceptor friend isn't going to readily combat you unless he has 20 friends sitting on the other side of a gate, or on the ass end of a cyno. Which you should be able to have intel on, and if you don't you need better friends. Justifying nerfs based on cowardice and unwillingness for a group of people to exploit what they have is pathetic. Bad example; interceptors are uncatchable. An interceptor can and will completely ignore your mythical gatecamp, land on grid with the person he wants to kill, using his awoxer warpin, and due to his inherently superior warp speed, land and have plenty of time to execute the miner or ratter before help can arrive. And even if he can't, the interceptor just uses his 2 second align to warp off.

Meanwhile, in this exact same scenario in empire, the ratter merely has to tank the interceptor for seven seconds before CONCORD arrives, instantly points, neuts, jams, and executes the ratter.

Heh an interceptor ganking a plexer/ratter or miner.
Just tank your Mack brah and put drones on him. No Corp fits in GSF for tanking mining ships I guess?

There's nothing mystical or special about nullsec game mechanics that somehow allow nullsec people to enjoy better security. Bubbles don't even do this due to the prevalence of nullified T3 cruisers with cynos and interceptors. Every tool we have in nullsec is available in highsec, plus you have CONCORD limiting the engagement window to several seconds, no ability to use cynos to circumvent intel, and you can always dock no matter where you go. You have to be deliberately obtuse to think that highsec is less safe than nullsec.

https://zkillboard.com/detail/37582094/ A solo interceptor killing a ratter.
Drones are easily killable by interceptors. Light missiles tear them to shreds, and the speeds at which an interceptor orbits reduces the damage from light drones to well within the abilities of a single ancillary armor rep to overcome.

Oh interceptor is out but now the T3 is in? hue hue hue. Come on guy, keep grasping.
You don't mine because you choose not to, not because you can't. You make less money plexing because you choose to not because you can't make more. There is no mechanics that put NS at a disadvantage pound for pound everything in NS is better isk wise, and more profitable market wise.
Choosing not to exploit that is based on your own unwillingness not because of lopsided mechanics. Perhaps if 90% of your systems weren't uninhabited you would see different results, but I am sure its hard when the vast majority of your alliance and coalition mates only log in/show up for timers and jabber pings.

I specifically mention interceptors in that post.

Like I've said repeatedly in this thread, there are not enough lowends in nullsec to make use of the nullsec highends. We don't mine because the prices of highends are garbage due to this dearth of lowends, and because even if we did, we'd have hangars of highends just sitting there, unable to be used.

Generally you have to actually do something in order to do it. You know like actually mining asteroids in order to get the minerals. But I know I know bad isk/hr, so lets reduce that isk/hr everywhere else while not increasing it at all in the apparent problem area. Good Fix to a non-existant problem guys!. |

The only issue for me in all of this is the excessive nerf to module/ship reprocessing, and I think that this is so large because CCP want to get rid of the extra material on BP's. And the admit to that in the dev blog:
Quote:It limits a game designerGÇÖs ability to increase material composition on items when needed, as this would give players free stuff in the process. As an example, we were forced to add Extra Materials to most of the ships that have been through the Tiericide initiative (which by itself, added a lot of confusion for players engaged in Manufacturing).
So the reason they are being nerfed to this heavy degree is simply to remove all this extra material rubbish which was caused by excessive tinkering on manufacturing costs. A more sensible way would be over time adding the extra material bit by bit to the manufacturing costs, but of course that would require effort on the part of CCP. Instead you just shaft a minority group of players, the same way that you shafted ninja miners in NPC 0.0, and you never even responded to them when they raised it as an issue.
So ignoring all these Goons on here, there are a lot of people who do actually reprocess minerals to make ships, especially in NPC 0.0 and all of us just got a massive hit in terms of our industry, I am not going to let this go, this is making it really difficult for us to compete, because my ability to produce will be cut in half, and we will be facing up against people in Sov 0.0 who get even more advantages.
And Baltec, that battleship comparison was the most stupid thing I have yet seen you come out with, a unfitted BS on a gate in null compared to a unfitted BS in Jita on a gate. If it was a bing fitted BS they are likely do die much faster in Jita, you Goons are losing it if you come out with pap like that!

So, according to this post, because a completely different situation (a "bing" fitted BS afk on a gate) might play out differently, the original situation (unfit BS afk on a gate) is invalid.

"Proof" is a thing your posts tend to lack, FYI. Anecdotes are not the same thing.
