Originally by: John McCreedy Sorry if this has been asked for and/or given but I need clarification. Is this only POS Seiging with a Dread or does it extend to BS as well? I heard the problem was due to Dreads so if you could clarify this, that'd be great.
Thanks.
Quote: This means that no attacks are allowed on starbase control towers, their attached structures or outposts.
I think that answers that, its not just that some dreads get bugged but the fact POS's are bugged as well IE not firing at people and not allowing people to control guns without bugging.
Also I believe fred0 of CEI posted on SHC that a GM had confirmed any assaults on POS be it BS/dread/frigs was not allowed.

Are you stupid or something. POS warfare is broken... Not only BoB's but everyones.

It's all ships attacking a pos according to GM Nova. and then Grimmi is talking about pos warfare as a whole which could mean anything really. My guess is they are playing catch up trying to figure it out themselves what should be doable and not doable.
We don't know if planting pos is allowed. Hiding from an attacking force inside pos ff?. Jumping in capitals to a system that should be cynojammed etc.
CCP should make a long list but they are probably reluctant due to their own incompetence and fear of loopholes so they throw out blanket statements that only confuse us. ---

On the plus side, this means you don't have to deal with POS warfare for a while. This is a good thing because POS warfare sucks. -Wrayeth n00b Extraordinaire

It would only make sense that no capital ships can enter systems with cyno jammers active, online, but non-functional.. That's textbook exploit. Though on the other hand, the alliances that own those should not be able to either. (although typically they'd use the now non-functional bridges :o )

I hope this doesnt apply to those who still abused broken mechanicals that were publically discussed on the forums since the 6th December.

The patch switched them off, this just slows its decline to from off to distant memory.
Hopefully this gets fixed in short order and we can return to normal levels of pew pew. It really needed to be banned from Dec 6th until they fixed it, which would have hopefully have been already if it was acknowledged as quickly as it should have been. I mean, working dec 5th, not dec 6th.. hint: it was related to something that changed !
In the future I think new content and balancing changes etc need to be seperate QA tested patches. I think all the shiny toys distracted from the real testing that needed to be done.

So what I don't understand is that if you have a war dec on, and you are attacking a POS "As of last night", now they have time to reinforce everything you destroyed, regain shields, and fix the POS armor. Or does this not include war dec's? I don't think ALL of the POS attacks are and exploit.

I don't want free game time, I wan't the game back ASAP. Who cares about a few bucks, I care about the game working at least half as well as it did a week ago. And I DON'T want to see this happen again. Halve the new features and balancing, get the testing right. I'd trade every new feature for what we had a week ago in an instant.

It's all POS's, because if they had their POS's working right, they might have not had it go into reinforced in the first place... It might have been saved etc.
It means that when POS's were buggy you should have saved your efforts and not shot any at all, now you have the pay the price just as the many that lost POS's due to bugs have to.
Yep, attackers and defenders are equally annoyed that it's taken days to announce this.

Oh yes, because PL siege so many POSes in BoB space you would know. And your cloaked fitted nano ships sure are set up for fights, so thatĘs why you get so many.

This isnt 100% true, there is nothing saying you can sit outside a POS shield and shoot the reppers... Your just not allowed to shoot the POS or its modules, players are fine.. Your still screwed with the passive recharge tho

From reading the bob forums I know people are pretty tightlipped about failures, but lets just say pandemic has killed more bob pos in delve than bob has killed coalition POS in the south the last six months(yes, that number is above 0, really. I think.). Even if it was mostly moon mining pos.

Edited by: Oam Mkoll on 09/12/2007 17:47:31 CCP should ban(g) itself on the head with a heavy object. If they aren't going to punish entire alliances and corps that started looting and destroying hostile POSes after the patch it'll be the worst injustice to players in an MMO ever.
SWG Jedi patch included.
Whoever failed to issue this exploit announcement immediately after the patch, is guilty of a much worse oversight than a person that brought the Bootini comet upon us.
edit: BTW people in this thread who are already trying to find ways to circumvent this rule disgust me.
It should be obvious to anyone but a complete baboon that shooting ships that should be in a POS shield but aren't because it switched off, are exploiting the bugs as well. --- I am violence boat

Yes, but who's going to put enough of a force outside a POS to kill carriers and ospreys repairing the shield for several days straight until they're allowed to shoot the tower again? It's not feasible.

yeah it sucked but they need to come up with a new way then that will allow ppl to capture space otherwise the map stagnates, and as i said before... wow in space... Yeah theres still a buncha stuff thats different even if the map doesnt change, but, I imagine the 0.0 ppl like gaining territory and not seeing it all stuck perminantly like it is because someone effed it all up.
