Honestly I see it like the following,
What happens when you're a new player with no experience in PVP yet you want to learn how to be more effective at flying your ships. Your friend invites you to the dojo so that you can practice a bit more before heading out into the wild and PVP properly against all kind of matchups. Suddenly the quality of pilots rises because they learned better how to fly, making your PVP life more challenging and exciting.
Win/Win across the board, provided it's implemented with no rewards or benefits to other people.
Yeah in the same way doing karate on a saturday prepares you for a riot after a foot ball match...

You are implying that PVP in eve is always equal to a riot after a football match, which is wrong. Even if it was the case, learning to control your ship and becoming good at stuff like manual piloting, slingshoting etc might save you someday. I know it might be hard to understand if all you do is log in to jump to a cyno and press F1 but try to focus. 
no its the difference between rules and no rules, fair fights and one sided fights.
one requires sheer piloting skills, the other takes that as well as awareness of environments and what your up against.
they are both completely different and one doesnt prepare you for the other at all except reminding you to overheat apparently. 
calm yourself.

Bamboozlement wrote:Are you implying that piloting skills are irrelevant to eve online combat? You can't possibly be serious.  Not only that but dojos would teach you a lot about your engagement profiles and what you can do or can't do against certain type of ships and fits. Good joke tho.
the joke is the idea that this will teach ppl to fight in the sandbox and you thinking that the skills are completely transferable.
who said skills are irrelevant? What im saying is that a skill disadvantage can be mitigated. And thats not a bad thing. PvP in the sandbox is about more than the 5 minutes you spend shooting eachother.
your only thinking on a tactical level and EVE is much more than that.

Why do I have to gimp my gameplay and not use TQ just because you don't like it and won't use it? Using the same logic : is it fair to say to people asking for a better sov null system to go on sisi because fights doesn't matter there?
full of strawmans today.
gameplays not gimped. if u want gimmicky PvP with no interruption and special rules you can get that on other servers with no issue.
what becomes gimped is the single shard if these become part of TQ.
id be perfectly fine with them on TQ as long as i can warp in with nado's to grab some shiny officer mods from 'elite' PvPers.

back pedaling is all yours
'of course it won't teach you metagame stuff like "hey this is PL in local they might hotdrop/blob you or hey this solar system is always camped by x pirates, etc"
this kind of 'meta-game' awareness or the ability to form and fund larger fleets are much more likely to allow you to succeed in eve than actual pilot skill. thats what i was saying all along.
if you dont like the riot analogy, change it to a street fight. if all you know is fair fights and rules, you arent much cop when anyone can bring any number of weapons and friends to a fight.

im not ok with multiple shards. If sisi became a consensual PvP shard with an economy it would be ultima online all over again.
as long as Sisi is a test server with seeded items, then they can have uninterruptible PvP.
Bamboozlement wrote:Except that mechanical skill is still relevant even with non-consensual fights, please read my post again.  Manual piloting is what makes the difference between a good tackle and a great tackle, same for small to mid gang engagements that logi surviving because he had good angular velocity/positioning might win you the fight. I guess it might be too hard to understand for someone that only play the game to press f1. 
you need to read my posts again. not at any point did i say pilot skill is irrelevant. it was you that tried to put those words in my mouth.
i implied that these dojo's would be as useful for PvP training as karate would be for riots. some of that karate might be useful on a tactical level, but not really where it matters.

"the risk of having your day ruined by other people is the cornerstone with which EVE was built" -CCP Solomon
im playing EVE, what are you playing?
on the Sisi server i can take a mining fleet, take it to null sec, mine trillions in minerals and then freighter it back to a market, and i can do that without even thinking of someone attacking me.
likewise in a dojo i can fit up my ship with the blingiest modules isk can buy knowing for certain that i know who im up against and what they are bringing. that im not ok with.

Why do you consider it gimmicky pvp? What if I consider blobbing gimmicky pvp? Is consensual pvp or even mining worse gameplay than ganking or blobbing? You didn't reply when I asked you what if we did the same to people asking for changes in sov null, why is that? Yes because elite pvpers are known to fly shiny officer mods ships.  Are you sure you play this videogame?
look up definition of gimmicky and that will answer your first two questions
where are you trying to go with the second question?
i was referring to the kind of players who always cry about the meta-game and think everyone should fight honorably. the truth is in the sand box all that matters is what you can and are willing to do and what you cant and are unwilling to do. and yes, if dojo's become a thing, players will bling their ships knowing there is no risk of outside intervention.
yeah im playing EVE, the harsh sandbox where non-consensual, unbridled PvP is the norm. its why i play.
your the one advocating a change in direction here. EVE FAQ "7.2 CAN I AVOID PVP COMPLETELY?No; there are no systems or locations in New Eden where PvP may be completely avoided""So it will be up to a pilot to remain vigilant wherever they may be flying and be ready for anything at any time" |

according to CCP the vast majority of PVP in eve is non-consensual.
gimmicky means special and different. this is what all the snowflake remarks are about. to get a little bit of space where you cant be touched by everyone is a special rule and gimmicky. blobs on the other hand exist because of a lack of special rules, its raw and unbridled.
precisely its a sandbox and everyone can play how they want. im not saying you cant have consensual PvP with me, your the one trying to say i cant have non-consensual PvP with you. the fact that a magical room is made where no one but the willing participants can exist is about as anti-sandbox as you can get.

your talking gimmicky as in player behavior, im talking gimmicky as in game mechanics. theres a difference and it matters.
the whole idea of dojos is to control the risk you expose yourself to. If your in a station i know exactly where you are and where you will appear from and im an advocate for making cloaks findable. If im hunting you and your flying in space duelling i should be able to come over and help the other side or just outright shoot your ship from under you.

FYI im not in sov warfare nor big fleet fights. though i have hot dropped a couple of times (and apparently CCP are looking at changing that)
no one is talking about balance. its the concept of being uninterruptable i dislike. that guarantee of no third parties, back stabbing or foul play that makes eve what it is. The notion that you can be out doing your thing and i cannot reach out and grab you.
the idea of dueling im fine with. the idea of trying to have an honourable fight im fine with. its the point at which nothing dishonorable can happen that im disagreeing with.
i prefer an EVE without such guarantees. its really is why i play.

Good but you understand that if people could warp in whats the point of having dojos instead of duels?
This is where im coming from yeah. unless this allows players to create 2v2's and larger without the time consuming cross duelling then id rather not have.
if the duel is created at a safe, how many people are going to deliberately probe you down to attack you? its not going to be every Tom, **** and Harry. It will only be the people who are really looking to target you. and that to me is good gameplay.

more like anything that doesnt allow anyone at anytime to attack you for any reason.

again, i dont have an issue with the balance implications nor any equipment restrictions/checks (like a fw acc-gate-ish). just the can't be attacked by anyone at anytime for any reason implications.
make em probable, warpable. even make anyone interrupting go suspect upon entering, lose sec status, whatever. just take away that peace of mind that you have to deal with only what is in front of you.

if shooting the dojo ends the duel and makes the duellers warpable i missed that because i havent read every page.
if it goes into reinforce and does nothing to the duel itself then thanks for nothing.

In the same argument, using a jabber ping to amass a force to log on and get instantly Titan bridged on to a target is essentially the same: getting pew pew easy and fast. And from the receiving players end, there isn't anything they can do about it. Remember that when you say you can't affect dojo PVP bc I can't affect "giant blob just bridged on me" PVP. As for the more risk out of the dojo argument: all ships are still getting popped that aren't a training session. Just like the billions that are spent for the AT, billions would be spent by teams competing on tournaments.
I never said the dojo arena is better or should be the only one. In fact I said it would help the overall EVE environment. The sandbox is exactly what it should be, a place where all players have a way to do something. Not everyone likes getting bridged on or blobbed to death but it's still allowed in game and apparently not everyone likes the idea of a fair place to have coordinated fights but it's also being considered being brought into the game. Both will have a place to survive in game and won't step on each other's toes. As I mentioned in the post before, there are still plenty of ways to affect someone else's quick and easy fix PVP
except someone put in the work to know whether they should be pinging or not. and like wise you can affect a blob just bridging on you.
the risk of facing what is in front of you within known rules is far less than the risk of facing what is in front of you plus anyone who wants to come along with absolutely no restrictions as to how many of whatever they want to bring.
the idea that dojo's are as risky as the greater sandbox as a whole is completely false.
again, sandbox means everyone can do what they want. so how is this idea that prevents ppl from hunting you in these 'instances' sandbox? it may not step on my toes much, but if i want to kill you for some vendetta and youre in this space i cant. at that moment the sandbox is no longer a sandbox. even if it lasts only 5 minutes.

It means that the players are given the tools to make their own content and shape the game world themselves, as opposed to themeparks where the content is provided for you and there is little or no player effect on the game world as a whole. Sandbox doesn't mean "I can do whatever I want". It means "I can decide for myself what I want to do" and yes there is a very big distinction.
So why do you all keep saying it does? EVE FAQ "7.2 CAN I AVOID PVP COMPLETELY?No; there are no systems or locations in New Eden where PvP may be completely avoided""So it will be up to a pilot to remain vigilant wherever they may be flying and be ready for anything at any time" |
