This Idea in theory is good but not well thought out for this game. If you removed local it would give any cloaked ship an unfair advantage. This would completely break any PVE in null sec. If this was a viable idea would you be Ok with gate guns and Beacons on the gates to Dispel your cloak and be able to target and scram you. That would be the only fair way to let this happen so if you did make it into said system that is awesome and have at the carebears. There tears are defiantly the sweetest. But with what you are asking for it would make 0.0 a PVP only area. That would take away from the sand box feeling. Another idea I had to make local less of a god mode would be to make Region chat the new local so you can see if there are hostiles in the region but not where, or even make it smaller to the Constellation. I am not disagreeing with your idea as I think it would make EVE more enjoyable but I think what you are asking for it to drastic to be a viable idea. |

While I am not totally against your Idea. Would you agree to constellation chat as a sort of Intel Channel then as removing local would make Intel completely broken. It wouldn't tell you what system the cloaked person is in but would let people know there are people about. Also if you want it so you don't know who is in your system would you agree that people holding sov space should be able to put up permanent defenses up. Think of it like trying ot sneak through the English Channel in WW2 it had a ton of sonar nets and other defenses in place. I think this would be the only fair compromise so it would make being a stealth ship more challenging but also more rewarding. I am back and forth on the idea of letting black ops use covert cloaks. It makes sense but at the same time would make them OP in my opinion. I would like to fix the ship from being just a fat cyno ship into something more useful as the name implies that it is supposed to work behind enemy lines but it really doesn't do this atm. I do agree that all cloaking ships should have 0 second delay on lock time let recons be the ship they are meant to be. |

That is an interesting way to make it balanced. I just think the OP of this thread doesn't care about balance and just wants cloaking ships to be over powered. I still think constellation chat should be the new local and with your idea of D scan as a early warning then it would make cloaking ships effective with out completely breaking intel for null sec. |

I don't think this how It was intended as Carebears don't need more ways to make them safer. there needs to be a stronger threat of losing your shinny toy when you are out in null or WH space. I just don't think the idea of removing local completely with not implementing a way for some form of intel to be relayed. |
