hi .can we get more information why this particular change is being done and what are other changes u guys and girls are cooking for future in wormhole life.thanks


rolling static to iceland

I would ask that you reconsider this feature and throw it away and maybe work on Black holes or something.

Oh man, love this idea. From my perspective this is going to be a fresh breath to already great environment.

- more strategic approach to deploying forces through a wh, have to take the spread in consideration
- means rolling will be harder - easier to catch someone out, incentive to have fights

- less chance of having bigger hulls dropped right on you when fighting on wh's.

- could be that the small mass of frigs will drop them right on the hole, less than 2k off - easier to catch and kill
- cov-ops T3 might be dropped more than 2k off meaning it's easier to cloak up and warp off or whatever. It was too random previous to that.

Adapt or die, hail bob.

If it's worth saying, say it on your main.

Oh I see I've ruffled some feathers with the stupidly rich and entitled wormhole bears. Guess I'm 100% on the mark.

Ok, in the interest of trying to find meaningful feedback, and keeping in mind I haven't read through everything in this thread....

Positives:

Basically, I absolutely hate the thought of rolling holes with this mechanic, and I'll be one of the ones who figures it's not worth the time, just let it die naturally. However, I love the thought of someone else trying to roll a hole and catching them.

It's the 'stupidly rich wormhole bears' that will suffer less from this. It's the smaller groups that will feel it the most.

This means you need more people online and active to roll holes, so if you don't have enough you go afk or log off.

Those guys who would've dropped a bigger hull on you just won't fight you to begin with. They'll go afk or log off.

So people who would've tried to put a cheap scout into your hole in order to scout you for a fight won't because they'll die. Instead they're forced to try to use a covert T3. If they can't do that, then they'll go afk or log off.

So if you see a new sig spawn and don't have anyone willing to jump in a covert t3, then your best bet is to just log off instead of ninja rolling or even scouting their hostiles. This doesn't sound like a good way to get more fights.

large wormhole corps like hard knocks, lazerhawks, SSC, etc will just keep using capitals, because they know if one gets tackled they have the numbers to support it. its in essence a large bait.

The smaller groups, like mine, this is almost a complete death blow to our way of life. A couple capital losses and we'd be hit pretty hard.

Lots of obvious solutions:
Use alts for the battleships or have the proper ships in a carrier and just leave the battleships floating in your hole (ghost riding for wormholers), or make a battleship doctrine or send some interdictors in to hold them down while you re-ship. Once again its not the end of your playstyle.

As stagnation is a problem in Nulsec, So should the people of WH suffer.
This is only fair.
