Suicide ganking must remain in the game. If ccp changes the insurance to make it cost more, I guess I can live with that, but empire should never be free from sporadic attacks by other players. Like I said in another thread... making empire totally safe will remove unprepared pvp from the game because people in low sec and 0.0 are always prepared for it.
So do we want to keep surprise attacks in the game? I definently think so. I hope its still part of the devs vision for the game.
Eve should continue to keep people on their toes like it always has, not adapt to the rest of the grinding games out there.

/signed only if people in high sec attacking others without wardec invalidate their insurance, someone further up used the analogy of freighters been armor cars with no guards, well to turn that kinda real world thinking back at ya, what insurance company would pay out if you deliberately rammed the armored car with your car to rob it.
And what police would magically appear in seconds and wipe their car off the face of the planet?
The best would be if players could do hit and run attacks and get away from concord, but that wont happen I guess.

Suicide ganking has already changed on the testserver. CONCORD now instantly kills drones and deals much, much more damage. Fully tanked Domis survive for only four seconds, tops.
A step in the wrong direction imo.

Just a matter of time for the Privateer CounterStrike fan bois to figure this new ISK making gankfest out and freighters will be popping like crazy soon. What am I saying... it has already started.
At least its better than The Sims fan bois.
Personally I think that people who go on and on about how unfair the fighting is dont really want to play a pvp game in the first place. They want to duel people, preferably with some dancing afterwards to make it all right.

Without freighter ganking, nothing unexpected will ever happen in empire space.
Its only natural in a space game that players attack convoys for the fun of it and the profit opportunities. Its FUN to bring down a huge freighter and earn lots of money on it.
Keep it in the game. Tweak it, adjust it, but keep it as a real option for players to do.

I'm not sure if the change on test is a good one or not, yeah domi's were exploiting how concord responded by using drones. But I think more of the issue to suicide gankers in general would to be if your agro concord you will invalidate your insurance. Also if you self destruct your ship you shouldn't get any insurance either, thats like setting your house on fire to collect the insurance money.
Like ive said before... with all these real life analogies, shouldnt the police also take a lot longer to show up if we want to keep things realistic?
