I, for one, think that 'warp to 0' cheapens the quality of the game and that any arguments in favor of it are completely bogus. Even if I have the capability to warp to 0, I pledge that I will set my default warp distance to 15, and rely on purchased insta sets to travel through dangerous space.

LOL @ U.
Cause bookmarks that warp you to the exact same point that a 0km warp would are better right? Cause instas dont add a massive amount of crap to the database right? Get over it.

No offense but your uhm not very smart or having a bad day. What you just said is that warping to zero cheapens the game so you will refuse to use it and instead warp to 0 with bookmarks instead...... IE do that EXACT SAME THING.
NEWS FLASH WARP TO 0KM IS A INSTA BOOKMARK, the onyl difference is everyone gets a fullset of bookmarks instead of only those knowledgable to make thier own or buy them, and in the process server lag is cut immensly, and the hassle to organizing bookmarks is gone. So please stop the absolutely retarded drama, as you already stated you already use the warp to 0km option the only difference the menu you click to acheive it.... I just can;t beleive how senseless people are.... I mean you actually had the nerve to state that you currently WARP to 0km after stating you think warping to 0km cheapens the quality of the game mind boggling truly mind boggling.

??? So you rather use instas, use a lot of server performance and lag all other players to hell with copiing BMs and saving them at the server instead of using the warp to 0 even though it is exactly the same? (exept the performance thing etc)
Ok get happy with this :) I'm looking forward to the warp to 0 option

A lot of people don't realize that BMs were not designed for instas and when people started using BMs for making instas, the debate was if it was an exploit or not. Clearly people think that instas were always in the game - they were not.
I think that nothing should be able to warp closer then 15kms to any object in space. Thats how it was ment to be, and thats how it should be.
If people want to play a game that is completely controled and safe outside of 'pre-designated' areas, please go play wow. Battlegrounds =/= 0.0 and at this rate, it basically is becoming that way.

HHUUUUUUUUUUUUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're most sure a BM seller. We will still have PVP with warp to 0. Pirates will learn to gate gank more and use a scout to catch incoming targets, only lame snipers would lose a this. Warp to 0 will bring more people into 0.0 as you'll insta have all "bm" for all regions. So a big NO to YOU.

personally iam all for the warp to 0km and ap to 15km option cause it solves most of the problems i think unless you include it in the game people will allways find a way to make instas in one way shape or form.
so in conclusion instas kill the eve database and the removal of them shold help server performance greatly and this puts everyone on a level playing ground imo so iam all for the warp to 0km.
incidentally i dunno how they are gonna deal with removeing instas if this does go ahead a simple script to delete any bookmark within say 25km of a celestrial object shold do the job the best.

I wanna be stuck in Empire for the rest of my Eve sub cos im not sad enough to manufacture 100s of bookmarks, its going to be a major blow to pvp in Eve that 2-3 year old players wont be able to one shot noob corps members as they travel out of empire in to low sec areas in search of more content to their gaming experience.
This is the final blow to eve! Why on earth should pirates have to use scanners and actively hunt down their prey in belts and regions? Are CCCP retarded :(
Alliance pvp corps, why should that have to patrol their terrority now to search for intruders instead of being able to sit on a warp gate for many mind numbing hours before utilising their pvp skills
Eves most skilled and intelligent pvpers are gate camps, this is such a tragedy that will open low sec and 0.0 up to the many brave adventurers /cry!

I tried doing EVE without instas. I did so for quite a long while, running chokepoints into 0.0 in my badger MK II, in a 'dodging camps' fit.
Running a few starbase towers meant a lot of fuel in and out. It worked quite well, and the game play wasn't so bad. However then I saw other people in fully expanded iteron 5s, making 1 trip to my 5. I saw 'hostiles' insta-ing past me to get to the gate so they'd catch me on the other side in their battleship, and then call me a newb (although mostly I did get away from them, so maybe that was why).
And so I *****ed, and made a set of instas. I would _quite happily_ delete every single insta, and warp to 15km every time, with only a minor whinge about how that's going to make my frieghter a pain to get through 0.0.
But only if we're talking level playing field. Only if I don't have to dodge the same battleship every jump of my route because he's 'got instas' and I don't.
There's a lot of debate about instas both ways. Personally I think the only reason not to remove them entirely is that so many have become dependant on this crutch that they will cry loudly if it is removed.
They will increase the size of the EVE universe. This is a good thing. I like feeling like Jita is a long way away. I think there's plenty of scope for market trading, but only if not 'everyone' is hauling things 5-10 jumps to a hub.
The other thing it will increase is danger level for slower ships moving through low sec/0.0. I don't see a problem here either. I think there _should_ be a reason to use cruisers, frigates etc. over battleships. IMO a battleship and even a BC should be big, slow and heavy, with a lot of firepower. As it is, a BS might as well be as fast as a 'ceptor.
Don't forget, whilst yes, it does make getting someone who's running a blockade easier, it also makes setting up that blockade much harder. Moving your BS 10 jumps to set up the gate camp won't be a trivial matter, and moving on once the camp gets 'busted' will also be harder. So you'll quite naturally have smaller camps, with smaller ships.
I don't think you'll ever lose the gate camps. My only real objection to them is if you run into one with 40 ships, there's pretty much nothing you can do. Now if there's one where there's only 3 or 4 cruisers, then you _do_ have a chance to run or fight, especially if you arrive in a battleship.
This would be a major gameplay change, I would agree. I know lots of people who won't go anywhere without instas. But I think it would be a _good_ change to gameplay, where warp to 0 would just serve to further dumb down EVE.
And for the record, I am not a pirate, nor gate camper. I've spent more time in a hauler than I have a battleship. I think there should be a reason to go for fast mobile ships, over insta-ing heavy hitters, and I think there should be a reason to use smaller faster industrials rather than slower bigger ones.
Seriously, how often do you see Sigils? They're tier 1, like the bestower, and they're fast, but they have less cargo. They're almost never used, because everyone's either AFK or insta-ing.

Not signed. It may well encourage more people out of high sec and it seems that only pirates looking for easy kills are against this. Gate camps will still be effective as you are still going to be at risk after you jump though a gate and allign to where you want to go.
I really hope warp to 0 comes to Tranquility no more wasted hours copying instas and reduced lag making the game better for us and as other people have said on this thread I would delete my instas as well.

Irony is indeed one of the higher forms of humour. Unfortunatley, like most attempts at humour it requires a good context, and skill at using it. Simply using irony does not make something funny as you have aptly demonstrated: you need to use it well.
Here's a tip: in text form irony needs to be rather obvious, unless you have a particularly high-brow audience. Just like text sarcasm. Anyway I'm sure you learnt your lesson. Sig removed. Please keep sigs to 400x120 pixels and 24000 bytes in size or less. -Kaemonn |

But given the extreme amount of mindless drivel posted on this forum, you do need to make deliberate irony more blatant than this. ----------

Not signed because plain and simple, insta's have to go!
If this is the way the DEV's choose to remove insta's, we can deal with the game mechanics this breaks later, what comes first is server performance...
Honestly, now the only gates you get stopped at are the ones that are camped with bubbles, the rest that are not camped, you can travel quickly to and from.
This is the way it should have been at release, but the DEV's wanted to give the "pirates" 7.5 KM then 15 KM to have a chance to gank, instaÆs ruined that plan anyways...
Now we just need a clever way to make more PvP happen away from gates, especially in empire wars...

I'm new to this game (1 month) and I have been hearing a lot of swearing on the insta's/warp to 0.
It seems to me the original idea was that a warp engine cannot bring you close to a specific point in space due to the nature of the thing. (it would be very impressive to travel 50AU and land within less then a km 'off'. Nowadays GPS will get you within a few meters at best, and the satelites fly at less then 40 km IIRC) So why doesn't CCP make it so that with whatever warppoint you travel to (bookmark, station or whatever) you actually will NEVER arrive at the exact spot? Let the game generate a random number for the last digit (X,Y and Z) for any point in space that is being warped to and the need for insta's will disappear as well.
I've started to use insta's as well: what the game allows I will do, but I find the idea silly that there is no standard way to 'warp to 0' while there is a workaround. The most silly thing is offcourse that while selecting the insta warppoint you still choose 'warp within 15 km' which makes me think the whole point was (and is) the inherent inaccuracy of warping (and simulating that in the game)
my two cents,
Cheers, Dubble Dutch

WhatÆs with these whining Empire Pirates? Go to 0.0 and use a bloody Bubble. Your as bad as the carebears. Stop clogging Empire space.
They play with this idea every patch... Something gotta be done the bookmark system. it's to badly coded. And CCP to tight to upgrade there hardware to mach there bad coding. They wont leave the info on disk, Due to people adding and changing bookmarks... err nmmmm....Hmm. It's custom ethier way.
Wouldn't have to copy 700 book marks every you move home, just for gate to gate? Gott sei dank!

The instas need to be removed, now, or better yet - three years ago. Cudos to CCP for finally having the courage to do so, however:
Adding a warp-to-0 is like killing bunnies with axes, and hacking your feet off to get rid of the smell after a day at work. It's a hack of a solution, even on the best of days. To quote another poster: "It cheapens the game." EVE and CCP are better than this. We are better than this.
I would much prefer a more elegant solution. Like Low-Slot Modules to increase the warp accuracy - something that will not only ruin the insta-jumper's tanking abilities - but also limit the number of stabs they can fit with the severely reduced number of low slots left over. There will be less need to nerf the WCS modules. Higher warp accuracy by default for small ships - worse for battleships, etcetera. If worked on, it could be an excellent solution.
If such a solution could be worked out, it would be more in line with the original game idea. It'll still allow people to warp to 0 - but prevent fully tanked warships from doing it. It'll also stop the 7-WCS Armageddons from appearing, as they will be sitting ducks while travelling to the gate. If such a solution could be worked out, it would be a lot better in every way, shape and form.
Bunnies are best killed with shotguns, and feet just need to be washed. Put the axe away, please. My 2c.

Edited by: Miya Kurosawa on 07/11/2006 13:00:17 I think this is a very straightforward solution to the people whining for and against instas. BMs are a hassle; go ahead warp to 0 manually. Can't catch people coz they have warp to 0 work with a gang that has an interceptor to scout for him and an interdictor to trap him. Yes I guess it cheapens the game for you because it requires more effort to catch people. Well get over it. This thing can actually encourage more people to move into .0 and lowsec so there's more prey for you.
Edit: this post was not for the previous guy but for the whiners against this. thanks

Edited by: Taram Caldar on 07/11/2006 13:33:29 Hmm "I won't use Warp to 0 but I will use my Instawarps"
    
Go ahead... you aren't proving anything except the fact that you're against everyone else having warp to 0 but you want it for yourself.
Most of the folks arguing 'against' Warp to 0 fall into 2 categories: 1) Pirates who like to gate gank and have no creativity to just move to the other side of the gate and use cruisers to tackle. 2) Elitists who think it's ok that THEY have 'warp to 0' while those who can't afford instas do not.
Warp to 0km as a game feature is a good thing. It levels the playing field. Now EVERYONE has instas whereas only the 'haves' did before. Sure it'll make pirate's lives a little tougher but they will either adapt or move to 0.0 where they can use bubbles. Which will balance the risk/reward for lowsec. More folks will go to lowsec (interestingly enough providing a lot more targets) because it's now a little safer. Thus providing the pirates with more targets. Both in the belts and around stations.
Combine that with the WCS nerf and pirates should actually have an easier time pirating in lowsec. But they won't see the forrest through the trees till they're lost inside it.
As for the 'haves' who don't want anyone else to have instas without having to 'work for it' I find it interesting that those SAME players don't want a skill that has to be trained to get the feature because *gasp* they'd have to work to get it.

I for one am for more sever stablilty and if that means we FINALLY get a warp to 0 option and not have to rely on the server to access our bm's on top of maybe 15k more peeps doin the same and the server getting happier by the day resulting in less lag in combat or less lag in the game itself..
wait.. by your post you are saying you liek the lag?
I for one am supporting the warp to 0 option. It makes sense.
Also cheapen game play? Heck if they stick with it and it does lessen server loads meaning less lag meaning more fun in combat since. I think the lag cheapens game play more than anything else. Nothing worse then clicking on a module to activate it and it takes 30 to 40 seconds to respond.
Please think of the servers.

Yes, well because of course removing the BMs means 0 lag, overnight, and servers so fast it's barely believable, and hey let's cancel that hardware upgrade too because removing the BMs will change EVERYTHING, you know, that makes a lot of sense.
More seriously though, I agree that instas have to go, I just think Warp to 0 is the wrong solution to a real problem that should have been addressed within a month , not a year.

I don't really understand the problem with the 0km warp in. Everybody gets his insta bookmarks big deal. Last sunday on singularityi set my autopilot for a couple of jumps and it warped in at 15km at every gate it flew to. This means you still have to do it yourself manually if you want to get somewhere quick/safe. |

Nothing will change. Empire ganking/wars is far more retarded than that kid in middle school with a helmet and really tiny, close-together eyes. They don't count. People will still be ******* stupid and mine/rat in lowsec. Warp bubbles will still suck people in and hold them still for a red-ass beatdown. Cowards already have SS's and instas to stations/gates. Miners still die if you actually use sense and sneak up on them with a recon, or nab them with an inty.
So keep crying, warp to 0 with your laggy bookmarks, and I'll see you on the other side of that gate. ----------------------------

Setting warp to 0 km should have been done a long time ago. This will make the game mechanics easier while keeping the difficulty and charm of the game! In addition ofcource to removing items that maybe creates the most lag in the game.

Originally by: James Lyrus I tried doing EVE without instas. I did so for quite a long while, running chokepoints into 0.0 in my badger MK II, in a 'dodging camps' fit.
Running a few starbase towers meant a lot of fuel in and out. It worked quite well, and the game play wasn't so bad. However then I saw other people in fully expanded iteron 5s, making 1 trip to my 5. I saw 'hostiles' insta-ing past me to get to the gate so they'd catch me on the other side in their battleship, and then call me a newb (although mostly I did get away from them, so maybe that was why).
And so I *****ed, and made a set of instas. I would _quite happily_ delete every single insta, and warp to 15km every time, with only a minor whinge about how that's going to make my frieghter a pain to get through 0.0.
But only if we're talking level playing field. Only if I don't have to dodge the same battleship every jump of my route because he's 'got instas' and I don't.
There's a lot of debate about instas both ways. Personally I think the only reason not to remove them entirely is that so many have become dependant on this crutch that they will cry loudly if it is removed.
They will increase the size of the EVE universe. This is a good thing. I like feeling like Jita is a long way away. I think there's plenty of scope for market trading, but only if not 'everyone' is hauling things 5-10 jumps to a hub.
The other thing it will increase is danger level for slower ships moving through low sec/0.0. I don't see a problem here either. I think there _should_ be a reason to use cruisers, frigates etc. over battleships. IMO a battleship and even a BC should be big, slow and heavy, with a lot of firepower. As it is, a BS might as well be as fast as a 'ceptor.
Don't forget, whilst yes, it does make getting someone who's running a blockade easier, it also makes setting up that blockade much harder. Moving your BS 10 jumps to set up the gate camp won't be a trivial matter, and moving on once the camp gets 'busted' will also be harder. So you'll quite naturally have smaller camps, with smaller ships.
I don't think you'll ever lose the gate camps. My only real objection to them is if you run into one with 40 ships, there's pretty much nothing you can do. Now if there's one where there's only 3 or 4 cruisers, then you _do_ have a chance to run or fight, especially if you arrive in a battleship.
This would be a major gameplay change, I would agree. I know lots of people who won't go anywhere without instas. But I think it would be a _good_ change to gameplay, where warp to 0 would just serve to further dumb down EVE.
And for the record, I am not a pirate, nor gate camper. I've spent more time in a hauler than I have a battleship. I think there should be a reason to go for fast mobile ships, over insta-ing heavy hitters, and I think there should be a reason to use smaller faster industrials rather than slower bigger ones.
Seriously, how often do you see Sigils? They're tier 1, like the bestower, and they're fast, but they have less cargo. They're almost never used, because everyone's either AFK or insta-ing.
CCP needs to read this. ---

Well, yes, WoW is ebil and should not be even mentioned without recieving immidiate divine retribution, but... It did introduce some things which is really good and should be adapted to the general MMO perception. THose things are:
* Customizable UI. A godsend from heaven. You are no longer stuck with the original UI which is NEVER going to be optimal for ALL of the player base. I *really* hope this concept gets general acceptance to the *standard* MMO set of features.
* Reduced level grind. Well, the truth is that I never got a max lvl char in any other MMO I've played. Why? Well, it was boring as hell to run 1000 same looking missions or kill 100000 same looking mobs to get to max level and still having to do the same amount of work to get a decent equipement. Note that EvE does not have those flaws.
* Lack of micromanaging for an average player.
* It was fun the first half year. Yes, I admit it, I have never had so much fun in any MMO as in WoW. It died after a year tho. :)

eve is too laggy and I couldn't care less what it takes to fix it anymore.
also I'm always reluctant to move places because you have to have the instas, I'm tired of throwing gang lead around to whoever has instas not being able to be gang leader in certain situations (especially once command ships have to be lead for gang mods to work)
It's great flying Amarr, ain't it? |

Originally by: Glumpumpkin I, for one, think that 'warp to 0' cheapens the quality of the game and that any arguments in favor of it are completely bogus. Even if I have the capability to warp to 0, I pledge that I will set my default warp distance to 15, and rely on purchased insta sets to travel through dangerous space.

PPPFFFFTTTTTTTTTT wake up and see what warp to 0 is going to bring to the game

warp to 0 doesent really do anything apart from give everyone bms basically... since when you autopilot it takes you to 15 as usual, as far as i know. And almost everyone has bms anyway... whats the problem?
My sig was nerfed.. im not happy -Mtt I hate mods |

As someone who has a silly amount of instas (ie: the map features large areas green ) I'll happily delete the vast majority of my BM's if a Warp to 0km option is implemented.
I've been spoilt with them, and to be quite honest, no, I'd rather not have to slowboat it to every **** gate.

Edited by: Taram Caldar on 08/11/2006 16:53:27 Ok this is way off topic but I just can't resist:
Originally by: Galimiy Portret
Well, yes, WoW is ebil and should not be even mentioned without recieving immidiate divine retribution, but... It did introduce some things which is really good and should be adapted to the general MMO perception.
Nope, sorry... wow didn't introduce a single new concept to MMORPG's. Not 1. Even the developers will tell you that.
Quote:
THose things are:
* Customizable UI. A godsend from heaven. You are no longer stuck with the original UI which is NEVER going to be optimal for ALL of the player base. I *really* hope this concept gets general acceptance to the *standard* MMO set of features.
WRONG: EQ1 had a customizable UI. So did many other MMORPG's LONG before WoW came along.
Quote:
* Reduced level grind. Well, the truth is that I never got a max lvl char in any other MMO I've played. Why? Well, it was boring as hell to run 1000 same looking missions or kill 100000 same looking mobs to get to max level and still having to do the same amount of work to get a decent equipement. Note that EvE does not have those flaws.
Wrong again. Numerous MMO's before WoW have had reduced level grinds over their predecessors. SWG had an even shorter trip to finished template than WoW's route to '60' was. SWG is 2-3 yrs old than WoW. PlanetSide has a very short route to 20 (max level at the time) than WoW currently does. CoH - Shorter trip to max level... Etc.
Quote:
* Lack of micromanaging for an average player.
Err... what? This statement doesn't even make sense.
Quote:
* It was fun the first half year. Yes, I admit it, I have never had so much fun in any MMO as in WoW. It died after a year tho. :)
Well, a bit offtopic, lol. :)
That one is personal opinion, not a feature :)
Like I said... never ever ever mention WoW when talking about features. Every single feature in WoW is taken from another MMORPG. Even their PvP system isn't original or unique. what wow DID is take existing ideas and simplify them. That's *all* it did. Which is why most veteran MMORPG players find WoW to be fairly watered down and boring.

Speculation based on the fact that its on test server now. (also the devs have stated that instas will be going away at some point, so theres less reason to believe its just a trial run on test)

wow, great - are there any official threads or blogs on this? i really like this idea, but was hoping it wouldn't be a 'vanilla' solution, that it might involve skills or something other than just warping in on top of the gate.

I just play Eve for 2 Month, but does "warp to 0km" mean i can now fly afk through 0.0 secs, don't have to be afraid of those gatecampers and can fly my iteron full of slaves, drugs and exotic dancers through New Eden? That's "un-thrilling" :(
And about "everyone has bookmarks": I don't think, that every player has bookmarks from every gate in every system. If you "live" in one region, you have of course instas from every gate you needed or may need in future, but not from systems that are 30 jumps away.
I don't like the idea of warping to 0km.

Edited by: Sol Flare on 08/11/2006 23:16:41 I would like to amend the first post to state: "I pledge to use MWDs to get from station to gate, gate to gate, belt to belt, and not use warp to move any distance in EvE. WHO'S WITH ME???"
Ok... I'm just playing here... but really, if the the option is there, use it to its full advantage. There is no reason not to use it. Plus think of all the processing power we get back!
And to address the previous quote about being about to autopilot through 0.0 in it. No... I severaly doubt they will have AP able to warp to 0. And 0.0 bubbles will now become a necessity for any gate camp.

I liked warp to 15. Not because I engage in gate piracy and stuff like that. But because it made ships different. I took a frigate to bust through camps. I took a Battleship to break them. I looked for workarounds when it came to bigger cargo runs. I used tech2 industrials. Good bye to all of that now! The game has been dumbed down because traders could not make a concession.
What concession?
CCP gave you these awesome tech 2 ships to bust through the camps. Those will never be used now. Were gate campers lame? Maybe, but what is really going to be lame is the death of trading. Some of you guys don't realize what your whining did. Am I going to pay you to trade anything? Am I going to pay you anything for a courrier mission? Nope, my newbies can do that now. Your cargo space ain't worth squat. Do you really think your trade runs are going to be as profitable? Much more people are going to find them now.
The only thing we can hope is that this will allow people to low sec space. I think it will. I hope it will. Again, not becuase I am a pirate but because I would like to see markets expand. I would like to see alternate profeesions come out of the game. As it stands we are taking professions out. If warp to zero is implemented, what happens to drug smugglers, mercs, anti pirate hunters, and frieghter pilots?
I may be Chicken Little and claiming the sky is falling but I think that the new option will change things drasticlly in the markets and not for the better.

Edited by: Captain Ruin on 09/11/2006 01:15:13 I think that adjusting the actual warp speed of ships to a level which makes travel an issue, AND adding a Warp to 0 option, is the best solution I've heard so far.
Cut everything's warp-speed to at least half it's current, and then adjust the speed up or down form there, depending on the ships mass.

Well, one MMORPG being an exception. WoW didn't have micromanaging in my experience.

you wanted instas nefered, CCP did that. You wanted lag caused by copying BMs stopped, CCP did that. Those Insta's will soon be worthless.
But to be fair to the 60% of players that wanted instas they did the "warp to 0".
Go gate camp in 0.0 and learn to live with the game as CCP dicates, just like us solo players do.

Ha, you mortals don't realise what this is really about, do you?
1) Add warp-to-0km 2) Wait as players delete their own instas 3) Remove warp-to-0km 4) ????? 5) profit
Or at least that's what I would do if I were CCP, but then again I'm a bastard

It's not that I don't see what you mean. But realistically... You are telling me you don't use instas in 0.0? Cause if you do. Then your not experiencing all of these delightful things you speak of. And there is no difference between an insta and a 0km warp. It is the same.. except less lag for all with the 0km option.
Warp to 15 didnt happen at gates in 0.0 anyway. And if it did people just called that person who warped in at 15 a moron and "he should have known better, poor him."

I just hate it how those who favor warp to 0 are heavy industrialists who want to have insta jumps for their freightors, alliances that think it will allow the faster deployment of fleets, and lazy people who somehow feel that warp to 0 will allow them to bypass a gatecamp. Those who are against it want more pvp, more risk, more regionality and more competition in the game. basically, they want the game stay true to the 15km warp system it was at. This will give new meaning to the blockade runners, the MWDed out Impels and Prowlers and such. . .the advantage of using an inti or a frig over a BC or battleship is the abuility to move quicky - with warp to 0 - all this changes, and I don't like the idea.

crap they want to be able to cheap gank noob haulers because they are to lazy or to socially maladjusted to engage in team work to really pvp. oh yea /me 75% 0.0, 10% lvl 4 missions in empire, 15% industrial, and warp to 0 figuratively rocks
