I read in a previous post that Local will be nerfed in Kali, but havnt been able to find any official word by searching the posts. It was mentioned off-handedly in the post, and I have learnt to always double check these sorts of facts on the forums.
By searching, I found lots and lots of posts debating about this subject (no surprise), but I'm not looking to debate it, just want to know if it is written down somewhere that I havnt found yet. Is there anything definitive from the Devs?
Would someone be so kind as to provide a link here to the official word if it is indeed been decided?
Many thanks folks, and apologies in advance if I've missed it posted elsewhere.

I told everyone in a post that the sky was falling, That space squirrils rule eve, And that i'm colourblind... It may not be entirely true though 
I think if a GM HAD said there was to be a local nerf the carebears would have created a ****storm by now

This is exactly why I wanted to double and in fact, tripple check. I have not read anything from the Devs about this, and wondered if I had just missed a major announcement somewhere.

The only way I expect local to be nerfed would be the following:
#1: CCP decides that everyone, including pirates, are far to rich, and all need to be nerfed severely in what they can afford to fly.
or
#2: Local is replaced with something that is even more effective at avoiding having miners surprised at belts, and travelers surprised after jumping when they use a scout.
Either way, the whiners lose.
As for me, I don't just play one aspect of the game, so I'll just play which ever part seems least nerfed to me.

What you need is a system where its possible to secure a limited amount of space effectively, but at considerable cost. The rest of space should be much less secure, and hence more dangerous.
So ideally, if you removed local, you would add a powerful radar/scanning module to be added to POSses or something similar, which relays all the information that people currently get from local to all friendly/alliance players in local.
I.e., when in NOL, BoB should be able to have a module at their POSses that makes sure all their members in NOL know who just entered the system, just like current local. Ideally, it would show current standings towards the alliance as well, so you don't have to click every bloody person entering local to be safe. The same with AZN for ASCN, or C-J for RA, XZH for D2 etc etc. But if a BoB fleet goes to XZH, that information should not be available.
So if an alliance is willing to invest in it, they can have all the information from the current local channel. But if you're passing through unclaimed space, that information should be absent for everybody, unless they put down a POS there.

Only mention I heard of something like this is when people heard about the new regions opening up people want the new systems to not have local displayed. Have the new region be disconeted or something. Anyway way ya what people are saying here just hear say and no real facts... nothing is a fact in eve until it is in eve.. Everything changes by the time it hits SiS anway 
So just wait and see. You will have local for anouther year than some one will say local is being removed.. a year later you will still have local and rinse and repeat

If local is removed there will be some other gameplay issues that will need to be changed as well. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Win a Cynabal for 10ml!!! |

Just because some pilot declare that x feature / nerf / change will be in "kali", which is already divided in 3 release and could change later one, does not means that this is real.
I could say: "Instats BM will be removed in Kali.".
Does me saying that makes it real? Absolutly not. You are free to believe that it's real however, and to start a new post about that.

I really like the idea of removing local. I think recon/intelligence should be up to the player. It would make cov ops VERY powerful, often times you would see that recon would win the fight. Operations would have to be planned and followed through with to a T. However, changes to ship modules and such would have to take place to make recon a bit more viable. Sure you can use an alt in a shuttle now, but really... wtfhellz0rs is a shuttle doing running recon missions?
So yes its a game, but I'd like to see people be able to survive in 0.0 with only one account and no alts. Your main should be your main, our ships should do awesome things and each ship should have a niche. Btw, there should be ECM ships and thats it .02 injection hehe. Oh and another thing. They should be paper thin cruisers like the blackbird. ECM should not be able to be fit on any ol' ship. /rant
how did this turn into an ECM rant? hahaha ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Win a Cynabal for 10ml!!! |

I think what would be good would be to make local truely that. Local. Only pilots who are within visual range should appear on it, and when they leave visual range, they leave local.
All other channels should be optional.

Edited by: Kyoko Sakoda on 14/08/2006 16:43:09 Hey, I've got an idea, let's lock the local chat window on NO PLAYER LIST just like alliance channels are 'locked' on PARTIAL UPDATE.
Problem solved, tbh.

A lot of people simply assume there will be changes to local and instajumps in Kali because long ago CCP said they wouldn't touch that stuff until the next major expansion. Whether or not they do it is probably not going to be announced until the last minute, somewhere in between feature promises and eye candy.
Personally I find it irritating that the most important issue in EVE hasn't been blogged about in over a year, but I guess it would make for some bad marketing to have people speculate and prophecize doom months in advance. Oh, wait.. Kali is slated for September. Hmm

All I'm in favor of is the "dont-speak-dont-show" function which should be active in lowsec (perhaps, its stil somewhat a learning ground) and 0.0.
