Why not? We use just as flimsy interceptors, t1 frigates and Ewar frigs.

Inb4 "time your warp".

Edit: I don't think it's terrible idea to allow pilot to warp at speeds slower than maximum.

How about squad warp, but no squad warp for cloaked ships.....

It is useful to use take a parsimonious approach to each goals and address each with the least invasive change.

Except, as one of your own alliance mates points out, this task will be completed by the FC, and therefore do jack all for the average fleet member.

With that covops also playing the role of being the linchpin for positioning the fleet, it's a great way to make sure that they all go home after it dies waiting for its fleetmates to land. Unless it's going for something like a badger or a shuttle, I suppose.

You know how every ship has different warp speeds? You know how 99.9% of doctrines all fly 1-3 ships in each doctrine setting? You know how easy it would be to say, "BS (lol, who uses BS in fleet fights...) start your warp now." *counts down timer* "Logi, start your warp at 50km" *counts down timer* Inties, start your warp now"

*** - HIDDEN STEALTH TRICK QUESTION: Baltec's actually flying his HARPYFLEET fit, so his Megathron Navy Issue warps at the same 5.5 au/s as an assault frigate, with similar velocity/agility numbers. (really, Baltec, I love those insane fits of yours.)

So bring more than one.

Idea:

Let's assume for a second that this all goes through.

Please allow players to manually set their warp-speed in order to be able to warp at similar speed as the rest of your fleet.
That way we can control our arrival time somewhat acceptably, and not have the Guardians land 20 seconds before the DPS (or other way around).

Please?

I suspect people won't do much of that for the same reason they don't use covops as tackle in a gate camp, or roaming fleet.

Fun fact, I have a commandthron that can double up as a scout prober :getin:

Just use a cloaky scout and fleet warp to it. Works the say way it currently does.

I am a wormhole player, which means I need to be able to warp to my bookmarks at 0. A cloaky scout will never be at 0 on the hole when a hostile fleet is present, which means you need insane amounts of effort to get warp-ins behind/around the wormhole even if that wormhole has no other celestials in the direction where your bookmark is.

If we would purely follow your suggestion, it would be extremely cumbersome for anything to be done and really kill the fun.

They dont currently because they dont need to. We used them in the past, we will use them in the furture when this lands. In terms of adapting to change this is an easy one.

- forces WH groups to relegate a previously useful and engaged pilot to the position of a mobile bookmarks, and slow travel down by about 2x,

This discussion(linked) makes a few things very clear to me:

• The currently proposed removal of game functionality seems destined to occur.
• There will be future changes to the game intended to remove additional functionality from the game for some reason.
• The end result product will not in any way resemble the EVE game that I currently enjoy playing.

I don't know why I'm surprised at all, when CCP messed with the spawn distances to wormholes and the majority response was "do not want" they did it anyway. Why would 80 pages of mostly negative feedback from their customers alter their plans now? I guess it just rubs me the wrong way that they refuse to even compromise when confronted with such voluminous opposition. This situation applied to real business would be something like a major car manufacturer issuing a mandatory recall where they disable all cruise control because that feature causes people to use their cars in a way the manufacturer doesn't like.

Could I adapt? Yes, I suppose I could find a way to have content in this new game, but what it boils down to for me is this: I do not like the game CCP is changing EVE to be and I don't want to.

You can warp to 0 on a cloaky.

Simply tell it when you enter warp so it can move out of the way.

Scan target, warp buzzard to it, warp the fleet to the buzzard.

Amazing -- In a civilization so advanced it has faster than light travel, stargates, A communication channel between players that allows everything from social chat, swapping fits & overviews to instant cash transfers AND the best way to get a spot in space to warp to is Flush it out & scoop it up

Hi Gentle Space Foke,

As announced on the o7 show we are making some changes to fleet warp.

Somehow I don't think subscription income works the way people think.

This type of change is bold, and it might seem to mean fewer vet subs, and then EVE will die. But consider the possibility that most of EVE's subscription / real money income is from baddies buying PLEX.

So the income reality might actually be the opposite of what you think--less pressure on PLEX means lower ISK value on market, which means baddies will buy more PLEX to have the same amount of ISK, assuming their ISK spending stays the same.

It's a nice thought that EVE is being revamped for the sake of pure gameplay, subscriptions be damned... but that's unrealistic.

Or maybe remove covert ops cloak from bombers? Tweak their warp deceleration constant and/or fiddle with their bomb release timings to balance them. (Instead of nerfing fleet warp.)
