That's an awsome idea to force fleet members involvment !
Thank god the people which gave you early feedback called the right points.
Yes to no fleet-warps for some destination, but not without broadcast capacity.
Each and every point are still warp-to, FCs just gonna have to call ranges, time, and estimate what warps when, how etc.
Not only members are more involed but that's more job to do for FC strategicly speaking.
I think that's a good idea.
Next anchor ?
Same question about what does mean :

1. Can I fleet warp my fleet to a fleet member as I can now, or does it require extra steps? (Right click watch list > Warp fleet to)
2. Can I fleet warp my fleet to a personal bookmark I made a couple years ago as I can now, or does it require extra steps? (Right click in space > Warp fleet to)
3. Can I fleet warp my fleet to a personal bookmark, or one belonging to somebody else once it has been broadcast?
Q2 is very important to me because the only thing I really use fleet warps for anymore is to panic warp my fleet to a safe spot when they start to die.
1. Yes, no extra steps as i understood.
2. No, but you will be able to broadcast it so that any member of your fleet can warp to it.
3. I don't, but i suppose same as 2. by principle.

So you plan to reduce the effectiveness of bomber fleets by breaking ALL other types of fleets. Great logic you have there. Squad warping you and your friends to a safe bookmark is one of the primary benefits of being in a fleet. This will make life a lot harder for nullsec and lowsec dwellers across the board.
Oh yeah, that's Soooooo much harder to broadcast a bookmark wether than fleet warp your fleet directly to it.
Really difficult job !

Any member of the fleet will be able to warp to the broadcast, regardless of corporate or alliance membership.
Awsome !
That responds to many certain "fears" here i'm sure. |

Minchurra wrote:Well that kinda sucks.
So long as I can fleet warp to a fleet member I'll just put my scouting alt at a safespot when I need to do this then.
Why does it have to be an "alt" ?
Don't you have specialised people in your fleets that would love to do this role by going in to make a wrp-to point ?
Don't you have talented pilot that could anticipate your wishes as an FC to position himself at the right place, at the right moment ?
Do you have such poor opinion about your fleet members that you think they can't right click on a broadcast to warp themself when you ask for it ?
I think this whole change opens so many possibilities i don't even know right now.
That's exciting. |

I have also already mastered the skill of flying in a random direction in an interceptor, so that the fleet can warp to a rolling safe spot.
No, these are not engaging roles. That is why they are done by bookmarks or alts.
Yes, in large fleets, having one or two more selfless, masochistic people dedicate themselves to these roles is a possibility. Now take that down to the scale of a 5-10 man gang. You really expect one of the 5-10 people to do this as his primary job? The 5-10 man gang already has meaningful roles for all 5-10 people in the gang.
And, when you cannot squad warp tacklers on to an Off-Grid Booster, kiting gang, AFK-MWDing interceptor, etc, then you cannot catch them.
Talk for your self, i'm sure pilots willing to do this role and enjoying it exist.
In small gang fleets pilots are autonomous and generally good solo pilots they can take care of themselves and warp individually to broadcasted bms or their own ones. |
