Originally by: Trojanman190 Its still awful, if you lag and cant hit stop in time you are stilled screwed. The station should spit you out at 700 then drop your speed to 0 so no matter what you do your ship stops within docking range. In 0.0 and especially lowsec the current system is going to require meta gaming in the form of alts and the like.
That and capital ships can't stay within docking range even when told to stop. My fenrir got the stop command and wasn't even below its normal top speed before it left docking range, and aligning a freighter to warp after being spit out at 700 m/s takes several minutes in one of those things.
Or just extend the docking radius for about 15km Or allow you to dock at any distance within 1 min of undocking (unless you have warped ofc ) As for freighters, that is a huge pain, undocking a freighter and warping it off takes ages, and you can't even use an instawarp bm to turn around further away any more

It doesn't really make sense that anyone should be able to sit right outside a space station and gank anything. Honestly I think that stations should have a defensive perimeter. But I guess things are the way they are because one thing doesn't make logical sense which means to "fix it" you have to create yet another situation that doesn't make logical sense.

Originally by: mothermoon2 I don't understand why they haven't just made multiple undock points like in the trailers.
Or just rotate jita 4-4 180 degrees to the left or right, since they(CCP) claimed the new undocking mechanice was to easy hub station congestion.
they did that, only they went to the left and then to the right

If my thanatos can still use undock instas, i'm prity sure a freighter can.

Yes they can. Though i'll admit that some stations with an unuseuley small docking radius might be a problem, for that you have insta-undocks, or this little thing called teamwork where someone checks the outside of the station for you before you undock, like you should probaley do anyway in a billion isk defenceless ship. -

There's an undock feature? I'll have to get on that!

Or, they could just rotate it 90 degrees down -- then it really would resemble a toilet! ------------------- "Kill a man one is a murderer; kill a million, a conqueror; kill them all, a God." -- Jean Rostand |

Originally by: Ong So you get pinged out at 700ms and cant dock as usual for a set time, so if you are geting camped, your dead if you undock, you cant just undock and have a look anymore. Is this honestly worth it just to stop the undock traffic jams in Jita?
Yeah its worth it.
Dont undock if youre not sure its safe, or how about not docking at all in hostile areas? Also dont eat yellow snow. These are all great tips. -------------------------------------- [Video]Skirmish Warfare |

Is it just me or does this game rise to new levels of stupidity with every patch?
First all this advanced sensor and scanner technology can't find out what is happening in front of a station while you are docked and now it even kicks you out at speeds 6 times faster than those you can reach on your own?
But sure, this was definitely the one and only possible fix to station congestion... --- Don't put your trust in revolutions. They always come around again. That's why they're called revolutions. People die, and nothing changes. |

Undock/docking is apparently the only way to tell what's outside your station.
If CCP is going to make it harder (and they should) then they should put windows in the station.

Thats why you can undock in a shuttle or noob ship. -------------------------------------- [Video]Skirmish Warfare |

What if you have implants? System != at station.

I fly amarr and have to live with sucky ships like pilgrim.
You dock up in hostile system blindly and get killed undocking.

you undock with neutrals in local and find them sitting outside of the station with sensor boosters on
You say OH CRAP
you wait 30 seconds for the timer to allow you to dock up again
You dock up and lol @ the parties that tried to kill you because they are noobs that couldn't kill a target they couldn't lock
