Taken from the page Linkage
"Factional Warfare, coming in Revelations II, will play a large role in encouraging players to venture out to low security space where they can count on their fellow player soldiers for protection against low security pirates."
----------
Will this make it harder for low sec pirates in the future ?

My guess is that it's going to make being a pirate more fun. Let me demonstrate with a smiple calculation. Targets = Fun. More targets = More fun.

Nope easier, More targets.
I think it's just implying they should rely on each other (which if carebears did allready they would be fine)
OR... It may just mean the following happens.
Bear1: Zomg piwat111 in a croozer!!!! I'm calling myy m0m!1 Bear2: Lollerskaates1! Lets bl0b im!!
Bear 1 - 145 : COME FIGHT US NOOB!! Bear 1 - 145 : COWARD!!!111 Bear 1 - 145 : LOL, Gr!f0r!!! Nub cant kill figtors...
Or something like that

You got a point in that.
Maybe Factional Warfare might be the thing that pushes more people into low-sec regions.

it will be a matter of a gang with 10 different people trying to FC using text vs an experienced pirate gang with a single FC blowing them apart

about it.
Seriously though, it does all sound quite exciting, anything that sucks people out of high sec will make the game alot more fun for sure.

Low sec would be more populated if people weren't such pussies. I mean it's to the point where I want to hand out medals to people for even just firing back. I'm usually under sentry fire to the tune of 300dps, a nicely tanked BC with a disruptor has a good shot of taking me out. Yet usually people get this doomed mentallity where as soon as they are locked and scrambled they just wait to die. No new feature will ever make people not be pussies. The people who aren't pussies are usually smart enough to avoid camps in the first place, or at least get sufficient numbers that they cannot lose (in which case I'm not going to engage). So really, I don't think anything will change.

I wouldnt hold my breath. If it's to much fun to pirate those areas to kill both Factions in a nice 3-way, CCP probably moves em into near-to-unprobable 'Faction-Deadspace'...

As far as I read about faction warfare is that players will be able to join NPC corps and fight rival NPC corps and get rewards for it and increase in standing just like for missions. I would assume that this also means they'd be able to fight other players who are in these rival NPC corps, as that would logically follow. I have no idea what exactly that has to do with low sec. May be the battles will take place in low sec, like you'd have more mission runners there? Where you can scan the winner out at the end of the fight and jump them?

I don't think you join an NPC corp, I think you swear allegiance to a faction and earn favor by killing those who swear allegiance to a rival faction. That's what I understand.

it's not going to revive small-gang piracy so what's the point?
CCP could give me 20 free ships with the next patch. It still wouldn't stop me from just logging on sparsely to change skills and waiting for my subscription to come due so I can sell off my toon. This game is... just not that good. If people can't blob you 5 on 1, no one's really interested in fighting anymore. The thrill is gone, gone away.
And lowsec? it's empty - forget it. Pirates have to hunt other pirates in hopes of getting any sort of fair pvp action, and there's not a lot of profitability in that. There's this one dude who rats constantly in a lowsec system I frequent... in a thorax with 5x stabs and a cloaking device. Sure it takes him forever to lock rats, but he never dies because we never have enough points on him. He says he's an "anti-pirate." I LOL'd.
Anyway, before you guys start flaming me for whining, just know that I don't give a crap what you think and that I hate most of you forum'ores anyway. This game -has- changed a great deal. There -are- less targets for pirates. Of course people claim that I'm high, but that's because they're not out there where I'm at. They tell me to move -- why are once densely populated areas dead now though? If the game is still so great for pirates, why the hell do I dislike the game now?
Then there's the camp who says that you're not a "tr00" pirate unless you're -10.0 or -9.99999. I'm not even going to address that line of thinking, lest this become another PAYUS whine fest. I honestly don't know which sucks more lately - the game or the C&P forums. Where is murder one? At least he always made me chuckle. --

In my opinion, Factional Warfare is a bit late when we look at what what Privateers Alliance is doing. Functionally they are pretty much the same with the main difference in that Factional Warfare is consentual pvp.
...and yes, we do sell and deliver ammo. 425 Express Delivery is available upon request, please see Hans Gates and Marcus Grisbius regarding this option. |

I'd rather it be 2 factions fighting each other and pirate factions doing there bit, if you know what I mean
