I was wondering when we would see another one of these, Short answer NOT GOING TO HAPPEN Gankers face enough issues in high sec as is from being free to shoot to anyone once they fall into criminal levels, killrights ( many of which are very cheap or free ) which make them legal targets in high sec if they bring their sec status up as well as legal targets in low sec without station or gate gun interference. Plus they lose ships to concord all the time and have FAC-POL on their tail the second they log in
If your having issues with gankers do one of these easy simple tricks:
1. Don't go AFK in space 2. Don't haul stupid amounts of ISK in antitanked haulers 3. Don't Mine without a permit 4. Don't Smack local when you die, tears are great motivators for ganks 5. Don't fit purple mods to subcaps 6. Don't go AFK in space ( Did I say that already? ) Is it bad if your friend says "that was a Metaphor" and you say "Meta 4? Get Tech II or faction" ?I love the sound of silent explosions in Space.-á |

That helps people who live in low security space too you know, if you fall to negative 10 you might want to bring it up so you can have gateguns on your side again, or actually enter a 0.5 and pass to another low without instant death and destruction dropped on your head. Its not a broken system it works as intended, it just also works for high sec ganker
PS: Its Freaking expensive to do that, its not something they do lightly or without reason as it takes a coniderable chunk opf change for something so simple as processing a tag and buying said tag

On grid CONCORD should absolutely agress criminals below a certain sec status, CONCORD response/kill time should be decreased and criminals below a certain sec status should not be able to dock at race controlled staions in high-sec; for example, Caldari Stations in Jita. Ganking should still be a part of the game and criminals, no matter their sec status, should still be allowed in high-sec and should still be a free target for anyone.
1. Faction Police already agress gankers who sit in one spot for more than a few seconds, even at safe spots. And thats before we even get mixed into the fold as capsuleers who can shoot them freely too. 2. If they have no agression timer than they can dock, it makes no sense that in NPC space you cant dock because of your security status, this isnt Null sec where you can pick and choose who docks in your station. 3. CONCORD will shoot -5 and lower players in the cluster that they hold sovereignty over, nowhere else. CONCORD is retribution not protection and always has been high sec will never be 100% safe. Protect your own assests its not CCP's job to do it for you. 4. at least you got a point for the ganking should still be allowed bit, but not much else :/ Is it bad if your friend says "that was a Metaphor" and you say "Meta 4?

ON GRID Concord should agress criminals with a certain sec status or below. That means CONCORD doesn't appear for every criminal that comes into high-sec, it means that if CONCORD ship are still in space (on a gate after a recent gank for instance), they agress the criminal along with willing players/faction police. Again, there would be a particularly low sec status requirement for this to happen, this isn't for every single criminal. As it stands now, criminals have almost un-opposed access to high-sec in regards to faction police. They're an absolute joke. As for docking, you would need to be an enemy of the Race that controls the high-sec area and only be barred from docking at their stations if you have a particularly low sec status. You would of course still have access to stations not directly owned by enemy factions, and there are plenty of those. Not a single thing in my above post would make high-sec even close to 100% safe, as is fair and suitable.
Except that if on grid concord agressed you wouldnt be able to enter most gates because of concord sitting there. That also means concord is shooting them simply for being there, not for commiting a crime in that moment. So your idea locks most criminals out of high sec anyway which is what this guy wants.

Oh and that could be exploited by spawning CONCORD in all the belts so you effectively cannot gank anyone till they despawn or bugger off Is it bad if your friend says "that was a Metaphor" and you say "Meta 4? Get Tech II or faction" ?I love the sound of silent explosions in Space.-á |

You sound like the typical gank victim right about now. THese are NOT valid plans to improve the game what-so-ever all your pushing is the dsame "Make high sec 110% Safe" so we can be away from the keyboard playing a game.
Whats the Point of PLAYING and Understanding there is RISK to PLAYING when your not actually at your keyboard to PLAY? And there is no RISK because of CONCORD holding your hand 24/7. How does that improve the game in any way?
Im not saying we need to kill all the miners or stupid people, Im saying take the safety labels off and let the problem sort itself out.
Eve is at its roots a Dog-Eat-Dog game, the smarter, stronger, craftier, and well prepared you are the better you do. Nobody will get any of that if theres a security force letting them play AFK all day. Is it bad if your friend says "that was a Metaphor" and you say "Meta 4?

Nope their arguments are skewed towards keeping Eve from becoming just another MMO/ WoW in space. Most MMO's die because they try to be WoW, CCP hasn't made that mistake, and hopefully they never will. Quote:Take the on grid CONCORD shooting extremely low sec status outlaws. That is COMPLETELY feasible.Yet look how completely out of proportion it's been blown. How is it completely feasible? The Faction Navy* would be a much better choice for shooting extremely low sec status characters, in fact that's what they already do, they can be fought, you can have a long running gunfight and chase with them, which as it should be. Concord, on the other hand, are omnipotent, they can't be fought, they can't be outrun, in short it would be completely overpowered if Concord were to do what the Faction Navies already do. Quote:This is exactly why the "gankers" shouldn't be "in charge" of the game, so to speak. They completely lack the ability to see potential and attempt to derail suggestions with bullying or emotional tangents. The same can be said for carebears  , if anything they're worse because they want CCP to do stuff for them because they can't be arsed to do it for themselves. *In certain systems, Concord are the Faction Navy, they're OP as hell The Faction Police are terrible at what they're supposed to do. Think of it this way. If a known mass murderer (a -5.0 outlaw) walks into a room full of local police (faction navy) and fbi that were already on location from a previous incident (concord) and shouts "here I am and this is what I did!", do you really think the fbi is just gonna sit there?
You forgot the part where your -5 MASS Murderer already died and came back to life, effectively not guilty anymore as he paid with his life for his crimes Is it bad if your friend says "that was a Metaphor" and you say "Meta 4?

Dude
CONCORD has 0 Reason to shoot someone because of their sec status Sec Status makes you a Criminal, but it does not mean you have commited a crime at that moment worth repercussions Under YOUR IDEA If your just traveling and your -5.1 and you have the misfortune of jumping into concord in .5 in a Leopard ( which will avoid fac pol every time and poses no threat) You would instead be insta tackled, barred from jumping out, Nueted, jammed, and killed and left in your pod usually to die to someone else.
In that moment what was your crime? NOTHING SO under the current mechanics CONCORD sees this and lets you pass because your not guilty in that moment They may get you later But NOT Then
Seriously learn the mechanic, stop spraying this nonsense and find a productive way to enhance the game rather than trying to nerf a mechanic that is balanced and working as intended
CONCORD IS RETRIBUTION NOT PROTECTION Is it bad if your friend says "that was a Metaphor" and you say "Meta 4? Get Tech II or faction" ?I love the sound of silent explosions in Space.-á |

I wrote:They already do check for Concord in the belts, it's part of the process for setting up a gank. Read it again, then try to understand what I actually said. If Concord are present on gates and automagically attack people below a certain sec status when they entered a system then that system becomes for all intents and purposes a risk free instance for everything except wardecs, because Concord avoidance is a bannable offence. So HTFU and scout the gates before you gank. If there's CONCORD there, tough luck kid, go somewhere else. Also that's not what you said. It's also not even what you edited your post to say.
That is the definition of make high sec 100% safe, CONCORD are on every gate Mate even if its the little ones in the cool frigates theres at least 1 of them ( except MAYBE .5 and .6 Systems ), your locking people out of high sec to protect your precious miners or whathaveyou not improving the game.
Why cant you see that? Is it bad if your friend says "that was a Metaphor" and you say "Meta 4? Get Tech II or faction" ?I love the sound of silent explosions in Space.-á |

Wait what!? LoL.
Hes being dead serious, I do Gallente FW and Dryson killed a cyno ibis and then said he had stopped a major caldari millitia capital incursion into our staging system. Reality though was it was for someone in gal mil's jump freighters.
Seriously if you havent met dryson theres never been a better time, i promise you wont be dissapointed

When was the last time your incursion lit a cyno and bridged in reinforcements that weren't set on a particular trigger ship, causing you to try and withdraw your fleet through the bubbles of 25-50 interdictors? When was the last time you warped into an incursion expecting all the ships to be fit the way they normally are, but suddenly find that your brawler fit fleet now has to deal with kiters, causing you to have to adapt? Nevermind either of those, when was the last time your precious incursion site wasn't the exact same spawns, in the exact same place, at the exact same time, as every other incursion site of the same type? Elite PvE is nothing but an oxymoron, and anyone who believes otherwise needs some heavy duty psychiatric medication. The rank and file PvP player does this? He literally just sits in space waiting for the FC to call out targets and locks them and presses F1. Sure, being an FC is REAL HARD. Being a rank and file F1 monkey? - REAL EASY.
Hmm what does that sound like Oh right your whole mining red cross fleet what do you call them again? Incursions? If you don't keep up to date on the upcoming changes, you may as well be living under a rokh.I would even Venture to say that was a good pun on my partStay beautiful o7 |

OK HOLD THE PHONE Did veers just say, "Nobody in Null Sec Trying to Kill you for miles?"
im going to finish typing this once i manage to re-hinge my jaw
Does the word 'Providence' ring a bell to you? (No not the freighter either!) Or how about Curse (Again not the ship!) oh oh oh or even Fountain, you know where the big war happened, and people get hotdropped daily?
good god i hope veers is trolling, or else im going to need to apply a double dose of carebear repellent and im already running low as is  If you don't keep up to date on the upcoming changes, you may as well be living under a rokh.I would even Venture to say that was a good pun on my partStay beautiful o7 |
