I say we nerf all channels but local. That way there will be no more privacy and everyone will know what everyone else says to each other.

The game was designed too poorly to allow the nerfing or removal of local. There is no defense in eve for people doing anything that isnt pvp, systems are far to smallthe average systme has what maybe 8 places people might be and thanks to warping people drop right on top of you instantly. Local is the only warning systme in the game atm, and it is badly needed.

Originally by: Shiguni Jhi It's a ridiculous argument - removing local only screws the newbies and benefits the pirates/gankers. Would love to make it easier for you to cause chaos but honestly, we don't need the aggrevation.
nerfing speed ships only benefits blobs and nerfs pirates/gankers nerfing cloaking ships only benefits blobs and nerfs pirates/gankers nerfing probing (of mission runners) only benefits noobs and nerfs pirates/gankers
and then i'm not even talking about the ecm and other ewar nerfs. we also have the upcomming nos nerf, but that will only **** over the amarr recon ships .. we have seen worse. oh and afaik, they also plan to nerf logoffski, then small gangs are completely screwed when they get blobbed.
its time that they all learn to adapt for a change, its time WE get a buff rather then a nerf. i said in the nerf cloaking thread that if they considered nerfing cloaking i would make a whine thread about local. here i am.
Christ, where to start with all this drivel.
- Speed ships (Nanophoons, Domis etc) got a nerf because battleships were going as fast or faster than interceptors. If you honestly think an untackleable BS is fine then I would love to have some of what you are smoking.
- Nerfing cloaking doesn't nerf any one side or another. Frankly pirates should love this as cloaked NPC'ers will be able to get tracked down now. If you're in a cloaking gate camp gang you'll have to adjust just like the rest of us. NO ship in game, cloaked or uncloaked should have immunity. It's called balance, look it up.
- haven't read up on the mission running thing so I can't comment on it yet.
- ECM was the "I WIN" button in Eve. It got to the point that every ship was being fitted with it and instead of having fights you had ewar contests. Who could lock who faster and get them jammed. I don't know about you but I prefer to shoot my targets with rounds. ECM still works, its just not godly the way it used to be.
- NOS nerf? Got link?
Oh and if you are seriously complaining about the logoffski getting a nerf then your mentality towards metagaming is the problem. I bet your the first guy to ***** when a target of yours logs off on you too right? Do the rest of the universe a favor and emorage-quit now while you're ahead.
Oh and to your original point. Local has a purpose. While it would be nice to have the element of surprise there's also a serious down side to removing it. Fun. Having to send scouts to every system in and around your path and scan down any possible hostiles over and over as you repeat the jump, scan, drop probe cycle slows down gameplay to a stupidly boring level. Instead of being able to travel a region looking for a fight you have to double or triple the amount of time to do the same thing. If you want a slower paced game then by all means keep ranting. I for one think Eve is slow paced enough without having to go through the paces of scanning each and every system along my route for possible targets. But what do I know. I mean pirates and gankers should have the rule of the roost.
This. Local is fine.

Nerfing local would be a bad move for all in EVE.
It will backfire on the yarring pirates that can't think 5 minutes ahead of themselves and realise even less people will go into low sec if it happened.

Do not nerf local in any way.
When the recent change came to show blue plus signs and red minus signs on local members, I thought it was the greatest invention since sliced bread. Prior to that, I had to look up each new member and add them to my address book to show who was freindly and who was hostile. This also meant, of course, that I actually had no 'Buddy' list...it was all enemies. A lot of people did the same thing so that we could identify people.
Those who want local nerfed seem to be Pirates only. I know of no Industralist or Miner that wants this. All PVP'rs count hostiles on local. Regardless of whether I'm attacking or defending, I want to know numbers in system.
Since there would be some way to scan local if they did indeed nerf it, I literally don't see the point. For example, if it is made so that you can use a scanner, probe, etc to check local then what is the point in nerfing it to begin with? You just want me to push more buttons? And then you want me to die if I don't push those buttons every few min? That would just be stupid.
Nerfing local is a whine started by Piewrat Griefers cuz they want easy kills. Do not nerf local!

Remove local totally, or make it delayed updating.
And people need to stop repeating this drivel and UTTER NONSENSE that it will make low-sec/0.0 devoid of targets. Yes it will make low-sec/0.0 more dangerous for prey, but so what?
Eve's economy is player driven -- eventually the reward to risk ratio will balance itself after the local nerf so that GREED WILL drive carebears/prey back into 0.0/low-sec.

Ever since that day way back, in augost '04, I ve never quite come to understnad why the need for a local have not been worked around by ccp.
As I understand, and have heard it from some old timers, local were never meant to stay originaly.
I say pick up that notion again CCP!

its more of a question of when rather than how. and perhaps what will come to replace it a means of intelligence-gathering and situational awareness.

/me undocks to find himself in clone bay as the hostile gang camped outside station has just blown me away because I had no clue they were there. (no local).
If local was nerfed to show only people who chat, then you really need some in station scanner to tell you who's outside. Or maybe with "walking in stations" they could put in some windows so you can have a quick look before you undock

- you undock seeing alot and redock - you ask your 3500 alliance mates to check whats outside the station - you undock all together and wtfpwn em - you use an instaundock

Remove Local! Stick consti in it's place. Oveur said local should be a method to chat, not a tactical tool. Intel is all local is about nowadays, I actually can't recall the last time somebody really "chatted" in 0.0 local.

The constellation "local" is idea is far worse than the current local as it would give people several-jump warnings to incoming predators.
Remove local entirely or make it delayed by 5-10 minutes+, but please, no, constellation chat/local.

agreed, nerf local! only those who have sov in a system should be able to see who is coming and going. let the neutrals and pirates go blind ... it is their wish, after all I only invest in businesses that even a fool can run. Because some day a fool will. (Warren Buffett) |

Good idea, my alliance owns the system and therefore the access to local chat. They don't want local so take it way from them I bet that after a week they would be whining to bring local back.
