Okey, I got killed by Posix the other day. That's never fun, but it's in the game and I accept it. I don't have anything against pirates in general but I do have alot against their methods.
I read in the rules that if someone used an exploit you should report it to ccp. Okey, so when I got killed yesterday it was because posix camped in the in-jump position. I jumped into the system and there he was. THe exploit is that I was locked, jammed, and my shields down to under half BEFORE I've loaded the screen. This must be hold as an exploit. you don't even got a slight chance of defending or even react.
Why haven't CCP done anything about the fact that the ships appears in space long before you get it on your screen. Load times and laggs shouldn't be used in that way.
And ofcourse to make the lagg worse he had deployed alot of mines for the bandwith and the computer to load.
Now, I want a ccp guy answer this thread too.

I understand that you dont like this. But its hardly a exploit. I was to killed by posix in Aurohunen (or was is aunene, cant remember). I was not killed before my screen loaded. I did get the threat warning but i was already webed and warp scramblet. He had one mine put out (and if it was more there could not have been many). He got to me in a bad time, i was moving all my npc loot from 0.3 space to korama. I had fitted with cargo expanders to my probe. yes i lost more isk then i have. Do i complain NO. Its the game. I know so verry well that this system is a deth trap most of the time. I did check the map and did se ships destroyed last 24h that was not there few houers before. I even knew posix was there becouse i almost was killed in the other jump in point few minutes before on the way to the northen most system in lonetrek.

Stop whining. And play the game.

indeed no exploit, annoying though, maybe CCP should implement a locked active target for drones thing (no cargo cans not included nubs). but then again they will just lay mine (scratches head if CCP didnt want lag issues why they in the game).

Anyway because of the archetecture of the way the cluster works i cant really see a solution for this anytime in the near future unless random spawn points all over a solarsystem are brought in.
The other option of course is around a 30-40 second jump in immunity, Of course this well never happen either because low Sec'ers can easyily autopilot through all the 1.0's

Ok, ok I know this has been debated backwards and forwards and every which way since it came to everyone's attention but here's another variant of one viewpoint on this issue...

It's not an exploit, it is however ****e game design.

It was 1amShocked ppl had to leave.

We camped that jumpin for about 30mins, and were there at the start, when u had 6 rats in that system, and when we left, still 6 ratsShocked.

We dont like staying in the 1 system for too long for obvious reasons.


Mastema convoing me and calling me a cowardShocked, only made himself look foolish, as we have always taken the fight to you guys, and hoped that we had mutual respect.

I have nothing to gain by hunting rats every night, i lose much money by doing so, but its the path iv chosen in EVE, no going back now.

Most of us were afk in that system just because we didn't have anything planned and people had other stuff to do. You came 2 hours too late to do anything about the camp we had earlier that night.

It's just funny when pirate hunters come and talk smack, but run like pussies when the pirates finally notice you and go do something about your presence.

Nothing turns a pirate hunter on more than one pirate being not-afk in a system while the hunters are blocking the exits. The amounts of smacktalk displayed in those situations is usually also the funniest.

Surpise is usually the best weapon in these situations indigo. There is no point in lingering so long in a system, so that pirates build up a substantial and superior force. This tends to be a dangerous situation for pirate hunters as some of our guys will get bored waiting for you to attack and their attention will lapse.

I know that many a wanna be pirate hunter has been caught out by SI this way.

Only the noob hunters talk smac in local.We dont talk in local as it is distracting.

The title is irritating because:

1. This is not a "known" exploit. In fact CCP in their wisedom has many times said this is cool. So experienced players are not expecting this thread.

2. This tactic does suck, however, and if you title was more like "when is CCP going to fix the 'known' lag issue" then you'd be more on topic and it *might* be yet another thread reminding CCP of the core problem.

Camping jump-in points isn't the problem. The problem is that you are announced in the new star system before your client loads fully, and sometimes the lag time is more than long enough for the immunity timer to expire, the camper to lock you and for offensive action towards you in whatever form to be well along before you even know what is going on.

Everyone who wants to win ATM camps jump-in points, usually with mines, drones, whatever isn't currently considered an exploit. Valid tactic or exploit is ATM a matter of CCP opinion from on high, rather than common sense. Meanwhile, "noble" PvPers who refuse to use the tactic will get smoked in any serious war.

The fix was "coming soon (tm)" ages ago in a CSM, but has been dropped since. Random jump-in points, gate to gate jumping or whatever won't address this key problem of server-side lag and client announcement.

Then come back here to the boards and eagerly await the posts from pirates howling at ccp's patch for random jump ins that are ruining PVP-pirating, how it sucks to be a pirate anymore, and the countless threads of "I can't gank anymore, im quiting" posts...

Its not a exploit but it does suck, However rather then Posting in the forum, go pirate Hunting and wait by the jump in points and give them a big fat taste of there own cowardly Medicine.




Then come back here to the boards and eagerly await the posts from pirates howling at ccp's patch for random jump ins that are ruining PVP-pirating, how it sucks to be a pirate anymore, and the countless threads of "I can't gank anymore, im quiting" posts...

LOL Come on guys of course camping and lagging a jump in point is not an exploit don't be stupid.

I mean just because people get so badly lagged that they cant even see whats going on, and they cant even fight back, and they can even be killed before the screen loads at all, and just because it gives players an immediate advantage other the ones being lagged, that dosent sound anything like an exploit at all does it? You'd OBVIOUSLY have to be such a complete an utter moron to think that. Obviously. I mean its so obvious. Morons. Use some logic.

I mean its in the game mechanics, so why not explot it... er did I say exploit, doh... no I mean use it.. yeah.

just get the book mark and a bunch of battleships and do it back to them. and you're a ding-dong for not checking your map for kills.

My corp mate got podded in the same manner, but we waited for him to log on and we wapred in with kestrals and fired off like 10 cruise missles...

just get revenge, don't call it an exploit.

I've never been killed at a jump in because I..

A) Have a cable connection cuz online gamming without one is rather pointless.

B) have a good computer and it may be three years old but for 3-4 hundred it's amazing how much u can improve an older system.

here is something for the not so smart people. If your computer sucks at running the game try these things.

1)get 512-1meg of ram (only will cost u maybe 300)

2) spend 100 dollar on new vid card.

Also in regards to the topic, there is no other way to engage in combat in empire space anymore so deal with it. If everyone hadn't *****ed for sentry guns at every gate then maybe oh just maybe right now u people wouldnt have this problem. As they say thou u reap what u....well it's played out but u get what i mean.

Have a nice day!

*get's off the fence*
Don't blame the Bounty hunters or the Pirates for using this tatic. Focus your anger at the root of the cause. This GAME was and is marketed as both a player vs player and a player vs enviroment game. It was supposed to allow both styles of play to both types of players.
But due to flaw/glitches that we have to play with or we have to use. One side or the other is getting hurt. The half *** fixes that they are implenting are hurting us (secure cans, let's give it to one side. But not allow the other side away to counter it). The Lack of content for the PvE players is hurting both sides. Concepts that are only half finish are hurting us. Promises that are not kept or are being put on eternal hold are hurting us. All this leads to an unrully player base. With an unrully player base, no or very few new players will be drawn in.
I dread the gate to gate jumping that is being talked about with out sometype of work being done to the fix what is causing the lag.
Hell escaping combat is way to easy unless the true aggressor does something to the extreme to force combat. Hell I delt with 20 sec lag due due to 10 cruisers and 5 battleships all warping into an area to face several targets. 20 secs where the campers KNEW were coming, KNEW we were there, and had a chance to flee. I had targets able to warp in and out of a gate 5 times, and each time I couldn't make a lock, (I have a lock time of 2.73 secs) being forced each time to curse at the 10 sec rule. Watching the target finaly able to use that same 10 secs to make the jump. Jumping through a gate with 4 cruisers and 4 battleships against 3 cruisers with drones. I was locked down before I could do ANYTHING! (I don't have a poor system, I am on a broadband conection so those arguements are out the window?) How are you supposed to have combat? Pray that each time I see another player i have to pray that the other player is AFK?
I firmly believe that each side should have an EQUAL chance to engage in combat as they have in escaping combat.
These tatics of causing the other side to lag will not go away on thier own. CCP needs to step up to the plate, admit thier is a problem and fix that problem. THE BETTER NOT PROMISE A FIX SOON. Thier SOON is 6 months to a year later, and in that time alot of players are finally going to give up, and say enough is enough.

To tell players to go out and buy uber machines isnt the answer, and i wouldnt recommend players going into debt in the hope that this may fix all the problems, because it wont im sorry to say, it might improve them though.

Okey, soo I didn't know that ccp had decleard this as non-exploit problem. TO ME it still seems like an exploit.
I also have a broadband connection (1mbit) and a fairly good computer, 1,5 years old. I'm no "newbie" in computer things so I can say that I don't have a computer that _should_ lagg. The problem is still as stated some posts above that the ships appear in space before it does at you own screen. I don't know how some of you cannot have this problem.
I absolutely don't have anything against pirates or bounty hunters. I shouldn't even have opened my mouth if they had killed me when I was about to jump out or meet in space. BUT when I jump in and don't even have any chance of acting before I'm "half-dead" I think it sucks. Yes, I know it's the game and I accept it now, BUT again I hold it as an exploit.
I've read many pirates saying it ain't easy to be a priate, and I believe you, but using technical "exploits" is just wrong. Foolink people to make misstakes and stuff like that is okey but still using technical.... nooo.

Okey, so why don't I jump back and kill them myself? mmmm.. maybe because I can't! I don't have that ships and equipment needed todo that. There isn't many corps in the game that can go after pirates, unfortunately.

I also agree that the problem is in the game structure and I don't have an own solution to that. Pirates are not know to live with honour, hell they are the opposite of it, but anyway I want to believe that some priates play "fair".

Well, I'm not usually a whiner and I shall stop whining about this problem now. I leave it to ccp to fix and in the future I just have to start praying when jumping out and in. Confused

The fact that your ship appears in space on the server before it does on your PC is a game flaw. To use this flaw to kill people is an exploit pure and simple, but one that we will have to live with for a while I'm afraid. There are plenty of tools in the game to help you identify where people are exploiting this game flaw. It's fairly simple to avoid those areas.

What isn't so simple is to get CCP to own up to the game flaw and fix the problem. Every online game that I have ever played has had this problem and to this day they still do so I assume that it's a difficult problem to resolve.

Until then, I accept that it's going to be exploited by both Pirates and Pirate Hunters. I don't use autopilot when going through potentially dangerous areas, I listen to the local chatter, and I use my map. If I get caught, then I either wasn't paying attention or was unlucky enough to be one of the first players to jump after the pirates arrived. Keep your ship insured, your clone up to date, and take your lumps!!

I think anyone with an ounce of sense can see that it is an exploit, as it is EXPLOITING a technical flaw in the game. Lagging someone so bad at a jump-in that thier screen dosent load is obviously not an intended game mechanic.

Also trying to take the blame away from the pirates who do this by saying its CCP's fault dosen't entirely make sense. YES CCP shouldn't have made it possible to allow lag to give people an advantage in the first place. But those that are doing this are knowingly making the choice to exploit the fact that people can jump in whislt still loading, thereby incapacitating them.

And please dont give me this, "well if you don't like it do it to the pirates, and dont call it an exploit" crap, because I have been attemting to do this to pirates for the past two days now (for the irony alone Razz ).

Ok now ive got that out of the way, I would also like to say that I actually agree with the pirates who are saying that the introduction of sentry guns EVERWHERE in 0.5 - 1.0 space is over the top and is hurting pirating, and that pirating on a whole has been done a diservice. The reason why I am so concerned about these incidents of jump in point lagging, is because I want a fair and balanced game for everyone and that INCLUDES pirates. Before CCP finally introduced sentry guns at every single damn star-gate it was ten times better than what we have now. Pirates had the ability to pirate in some fairly high traffic areas, and people also had the chance to avoid them if they had the wits (or the will) to do so.

So yes something needs to be done by CCP not only about the issue of jump-in lagging, but about the unfortunate situation pirating has been put in. Pirates should have a fair and balanced way of going about thier chosen career just as everyone else should. And it should'nt involve having to gank people at jump in points to do this. And I think we can all agree on that.

I'm no "carebear", I think pirates are great Razz. Hunting them (win or lose, its all fun) is one of the main reasons why I play the game, its a laugh. And I can understand why the pirates, pirate, its part of the game, and I suspect a fun one Smile. I'd just rather die a thousand times to pirates who are able to play the game without being able lag me to death, than once to ones that can.

Anyway hopefully CCP will balance the issue (eventually), and this will all be forgoten about. Then hopefully (LOL), we will all live in magical eve nirvarna where pirates can joyfully kill people all day long to rage against the machine, and "carebears" can AFK mine scordite all day long in 1.0 space (these are the people that I really dont inderstand) ,to the teletubies theme tune. Very Happy

I'm no "carebear", I think pirates are great Razz. Hunting them (win or lose, its all fun) is one of the main reasons why I play the game, its a laugh. And I can understand why the pirates, pirate, its part of the game, and I suspect a fun one Smile. I'd just rather die a thousand times to pirates who are able to play the game without being able lag me to death, than once to ones that can.

Anyway hopefully CCP will balance the issue (eventually), and this will all be forgoten about. Then hopefully (LOL), we will all live in magical eve nirvarna where pirates can joyfully kill people all day long to rage against the machine, and "carebears" can AFK mine scordite all day long in 1.0 space (these are the people that I really dont inderstand) ,to the teletubies theme tune. Very Happy

1. I have a 10mbit connection.

2. 1700mhz, 756mb ram, geeforce 3Ti

Still at jumpin I was locked, webbed and jammed before my screen loaded.

The thing that saved me that time was that all torps hitting the end of my ship actually put me out of range so my mwd could kick in and thus escape Twisted Evil

About the rest of this subject not addressed to anyone in particular;
Is it fun to shoot at sitting ducks? If so, you must really be mentally retarded. Same goes for ALL that use this tactic. I have nothing against pirates, but call this hunting? Yeah right. They add some spice to the game, as all pvp does, but camping jumpin is NOT pvp, cause there is no player at "the other end" until you find your ship nearly destroyed and totally jammed.

If you leave autopilot on while traveling thro the system dont you warp as soon as you arrive?

Or does this not work

My Final question to all these people complaining about pirating is

If you see a Pirate ship with a 20 mill bounty afk, crashed, or unable to defend himself would you shoot?

let he who is not guilty cast the first stone

As I stated above, pvp add spice, without pirates in Eve it would be a helluva boring game.

This does NOT include camping jumpins, since it would be impossible to label that as pvp.

I'm not experianced in pvp, never lost a ship since I started this game. (Unless one to concord Embarassed) Would never complain about losing a ship to a pirate (or a band of them) since I do venture out in 0.0 space every now and then.

If they manage to hunt me down or supprise me they deserve it, which I doubt they would have much trouble with to begin with.

Another way to go if one is looking for pvp (within empirespace) is corpwars. Same goes there, try to supprise your opponent or hunt him/her down. THEN it's pvp...

I can say, from experience, if you are in CFS and you see pooti crashed and unable to defend himself, you kill him.

And you know what? I'll say, "yeah, I CTD," but I'm not gonna whine about it. 'Cause I mean, I would do the same thing in his shoes.

I've only had that one guy kill me while crashed, and he turned out to be pretty cool. So.

It happens.

Oh, and the real reason for jump-in lag: it's the only way you can lock someone. If they're on autopilot, there is no timeframe to lock and warp jam, and if they're in empire space you can't get them at the gate either. If they have bookmarks, can't even get them at gates in 0.0. Which really rules out killing people as they travel.

So, I don't think many people intend to kill someone while they're defenseless; they just wanna be able to get the fight. It sucks that it works that way, but, well, it works that way.

And you can't point the finger at anyone in particular. I've seen every PVP group I've fought with or against do it.

The bigest games online are PVP games. EVE should be a PVP only game. And better yet, TVT (team vs team) or perhaps GvB (good vs bad)


WRONG!
The biggest online game is EverQuest, and with the exception of only a few servers, PvP is not allowed.

About the Lag Camping Jump In Spots... shady subject... It's obviously wrong due an coding oversight of CCP (just like quitting yer Corp in the middle of a Corp War battle in empire systems), but the sheer numbers of cases are so big that CCP can't handle them all... so they plan to code the client to fix this flau... but as we all know, its hard to change code in a flash when lots of stuff are getting bugged left and right.

This kind of stuff should have been detected in Beta and fixed then.

Well here is how I see the lag issues when aproaching a gate, or entering a system or etc.

THink back to the castle era, where poeple would build walls and fortify themselves against raids and etc. And for an ary to take that position they would obviously need more firepower then that isnide the fortified castle.

Now apply this to eve, the pirates or whatever have fortified they're position, you lag when entering the system which gives them a distinctive advantage, but they shoudl ahve it, they are the ones fortified. Anyways I am sure not everyone wants to look at it this way, but I do think it is reasonable for it to work this way.

We've all dealt with it. In-game customer support. You would think that by now game companies might start to clue into the fact that a player whose run into a problem is already in a bad mood. So why design a support system around just ****ing them off all the more?

Amen to all of this, but especially to the limited PvE options. The MOBs are dumber than a sack of hammers. Killing MOBs is only hard when they are uuber powerful, but figure out a tactic and they never adjust to it. If they had like 1/10th the intelligence of the old Quake 1 reaper bot, cops, convoys and NPC rats would be very interesting to play against.

Plus why is it only cops get reinforcements? Seems dumb to me I can kill the same 5 Guristas for 5 hours. I'd think they either leave or send in a huge force to stomp me flat....

The simple thing about gate camping is truly amazing when you really think about it. The gate campers are taking revenge for being the s*** on, kicked, beat-up kid in school, they now have the power to be the bully and are taking every opportunity to use it to the fullest possible advantage their tiny brains can figure out. Ganking is nothing more than I'm-bigger-than-you-and-I-want-to-prove-how-kick-A**-I-am-over-you
syndrome. Every bully gets it, and some just are too lacking in brains to figure it out. I respect Pirates to the fullest, and have since I have played this game since last year. And unfortunately I even have friends that play who are gankers and have tried almost everyday to convince to join the dark side, As I am a bounty hunter and won't. But no matter which way you slice the cheese it is still just people who feel inadequate in some way and compensate by camping gates in Eve to make themselves feel better. More power to em in the end though......

besides jostling your ship around a bit when do torps or any weapons in the game actually move (meters per sec)your ship.

Threads like this make me wish the search box was never added...

You just need to cry that badly that you're digging up a 4 year old thread, in which the game mechanics on jumping were totally different? Stop it with this mindless tripe about the real lives of people you know nothing about other than where the congregate in eve, we've heard it all before.
