Take the example given somewhere in this thread of a low sec camp with 2 Vexors and 2 Rooks. Before these changes, the gang considering fighting them never would because they know they can't deal with the Rooks. After, they won't see them and so they will probably engage. That's more fights because people are risk averse.
I believe this process can be streamlined somewhat if you just make people's **** randomly blow up, call that content and then make a large animated middle finger appear in the middle of their screen. Content created where the normal desire for players to avoid losing ships would have forced them to be more cautious. |

So basically what happened here is you thought about how it makes people feel when they think they're having a really close fight and then a falcon decloaks and thought to yourself "Why limit that to just falcons? Why not all recons?". Now, in your example, they can have that feeling when they land on grid with two rooks without falcons even needing to be there. hashtag content created hashtag Rise2014.
I'll be scouting every gang with a cloaky nullified linkalt of course but there again I already take ambitious aggressive fights which could go either way while actively ignoring the people who have no chance against me because for me risk is a big part of what I pvp for. I don't get any joy from having someone land expecting to fight what I have minus recons, being dead before it starts, and basically being able to f1 afk which is apparently your idea of content. What I like is fighting even or against the odds and trying to persevere through skill and for that I'll need to stop relying so much on dscan and start getting cloaky nullified eyes on grid so I can get a better idea of what the odds are. Fights which are over before they're begun are not good content, making a larger proportion of fights a complete waste of time does not make eve a more content rich environment for the losers or the winners of said fights, even if more fights take place overall. |
