Jim Raynor	Posted - 2004.03.05 17:56:00 - [1] Sentry gun range = 150km range now. Don't even think about hunting a convey. I don't know why they're still in game now, you pretty much can't kill them with this change, at least not solo or without a battleship. Anyways, just a heads up. ------ ROBBLE ROBBLE
zincol	Posted - 2004.03.05 18:05:00 - [2] Protect them nub's! Thanks. w00t!
Dust Puppy	Posted - 2004.03.05 18:09:00 - [3] perfectly logical change __________ Capacitor research
Kayosoni	Posted - 2004.03.05 18:14:00 - [4] awww, so now celest can't camp egbinger... poor babies, they have to come farther into curse... or not at all.
Imperishable	Posted - 2004.03.05 18:31:00 - [5] Perfectly logical thing to think for carebear, yes Lets all beg for sentries in asteroid belts now
Dirus	Posted - 2004.03.05 18:32:00 - [6] 150km... thats awful. Cant kill people in empire space anymore, unless they are at belts, or have some REALLY tweaked out 1400mms... ********** Everyone deserves to die. You go first.

Actually it doesn't affect me that much, I can't play much now and when I do nobody comes to the gate I'm camping :( I just think there needs to be a chance to pirate in low sec space, I'm only thinking about the pirates __________ Capacitor research

Anyways, just a heads up. i think this is shocking, and didnt even know about it untill today, thanks for making it public knowledge Jim. As for the CELES comment, whats that to do with anything?, keep the topic on subject plz.
MSDborris	Posted - 2004.03.05 19:34:00 - [10] holy ** 150km ! jim are u sure? With the last patch ppl are having problems with the Client being out of Sync with the Server. ( npc web, scrab 80km ) and some other reports of npc shooting 30AU ... If CCP has changed the Sentry gunz to 150km then there just Idiots it was hard enuff to npc hunt b4. * " MSDborris, " Baka!, Hentia! " ***
Aerfen	Posted - 2004.03.05 19:50:00 - [11] 150km does make sense. If u fire on a sentry it will fire back at you up to 150km. Also don't forget this is still empire so there has to be somthing that makes it different from 0.0. I'm just glad this will stop the lame arse station and gate campers who used to sit outside 65km and shoot at you, knowing you couldn't fire back in sentry range or else be treated as the aggressor. That was an exploit even if CCP didn't like to admit it, all down another flaw in the security force AI. Now they have to go to the belts and fight like the rest of us.

Yes it's 150km, check EVE-DB or try it for yourself. Try gatecamping in minmatar 0.3 - 6 sentry guns with 150k range...
Tronsol	Posted - 2004.03.05 21:17:00 - [13] Edited by: Tronsol on 05/03/2004 21:18:26 what was the previous range? rape and tape drink, not think

Ketch Kan	Posted - 2004.03.05 21:45:00 - [15] Interesting. I destroyed my first two convoys yesterday. The first was in a .7 system, the second in a .5 system. I was just over the 65K limit from sentries when I opened fire. I was targeted by sentry guns in the .7, but never fired upon. I was never even targeted in the .5. For what it's worth...
hellwarrior	Posted - 2004.03.05 22:34:00 - [16] Lemme make something clear: previously tech level I sentry was 60km max range it would fire @ you if you were close enough 60 > x, if you went past 60 they woudl still hit u way past 100km. 150km on all sentries :x lol no more camping stations,gates,nothing, wowzies.
Ketch Kan	Posted - 2004.03.06 00:57:00 - [17] Just realized topic was .1-.4 systems. It would appear that the new 150km range is for .1-.4 and no change to more secure systems. Can anyone confirm this?
Kayosoni	Posted - 2004.03.06 01:02:00 - [18] As it should be. If you want to kill people, go to 0.0.
Frost88	Posted - 2004.03.06 01:06:00 - [19] This is unspeakebly lame, how the hell are we expected to hunt convoys now? Are CCP trying to make it so mining is the ONLY way to make money in this game? And thanks a lot CCP for notifying us about this change, they really should put a warning on the log in screen before anyone else learns the hard way :S ------------------------------------------------ I've always owned Kehmor, cheap as chips off Ebay

Doesnt concord attack when you attack convoys in 0.5 and higher systems?
fras	Posted - 2004.03.06 04:10:00 - [21] that sucks!
Zarra	Posted - 2004.03.06 04:18:00 - [22] I've been convoy killing in 0.7 space and the sentry's have not fired at me. Maybe they are the smaller one's, but i've been sat at 70k from the nearest gun, ok I've been targeted, but the only guns that have been firing at me are those of the convoy. Maybe it has something to do with the ship you're flying, I'm hitting them in a frigate, ok it may take time, but they go bang eventually
Dash Ripcock	Posted - 2004.03.06 04:28:00 - [23] I was, ahem, 'sitting around' in a 0.4 last night GMT, and I was about 61Km from the nearest sentry and was not getting fired upon. Was this implemented over-night or something? Battle Angels Inc - The Movie
Chelsea rorec	Posted - 2004.03.06 11:04:00 - [24] I don't wanna sound like a pinko but your not supposed to beable to kill anyone in empire thats the whole point of concord and sentry guns. So get out to 0.0 you bunch of whiners and fight properly where people can fight back and are not newbs.

Gween	Posted - 2004.03.06 11:47:00 - [26] ... and 0.1 to 0.4 is/was just semi-safe, so everyone (ok near everyone) knew. You also get red dots on autopilot-route when you crossing systems lower then 0.5. Welcome to Carebear-Land. -------------- Coffee'n'Toffee makes Gween happy Coffee'n'Toffee makes Gween happy ...
SwitchBl4d3	Posted - 2004.03.06 12:29:00 - [27] Aww man i just got hit from a sentry in yulai.. damn CCP im 32 jumps away from there SIGH "Teh lord of Nonni"

Asharee Intrefer	Posted - 2004.03.06 14:23:00 - [29] If you would spend half the energy you're wasting on complaining on coming up with new, creative ways of piracy, I bet you would be back in "business" in no time.

After the patch I was still able to kill convoy's, but over night, not any more. I'm not going to sit the mining for hours to get next to nothing, i'm only in a frigate So now what happens to all those convoy kill missions I've heard about, do they all get removed or do the sentries suddenly cease operation durring them... why not get rid of all npc's with in empire, that way noob char's like me won't try to make a quick isk When I'm strong enough to go to 0.0, then yes I will as the payout will be better, but this is just ****ing pathetic!
