Edited by: Stolishnaya on 17/03/2008 13:51:39 I¦ve been reading on the forums about suicide ganks and possible solutions, but always there are people (trolls) saying the best solution is to fly secure space manually. I had to admit they are right. But i want to ask, what is the right use of the autopilot? We cant use it in low space but neither in secure space... ahh, i see, it¦s only for flying empty shuttles, isn¦t it? Well, i can afford it. But if we cannot use an option created to reduce the boredom of flying a ship 35 jumps i want to ask for a nerf for gank players: NO autorepeat, or simply increase the time for each round when using it. If you want a good dps in your ship shoot it MANUALLY.
Any player could make a mistake and loose his ship, most of time after ignoring a warning (like can baiting, or joining a gang with a corp at war with other), but loosing a ship in 1.0 without a warning or reward, only because flying in autopilot! should be considered as a exploit.
Now stop this meaningless. Fix suicide gangs. Stop paying insurance to ships destroyed by Concord, and make "secure space" a really secure space for industrial players.

You simply dont have a clue about how this game works do you?
First, its not an exploit that the game doesnt work the way you want it to work. If you dont like it, get find another one, easy and simple...
Second, are you completely out of your mind? PvP would be unplayable if you had to turn on your modules manually for each round you fire. My F1-F8 would be gone in a fight. Imagine fleet battles Ships firering once in the battle because of lag.
You better get a flamesuit, because you are gonna be flamed by a lot of people who has a clue!

What the OP chooses to ignore is that you can use the AP in high sec as much as you want. If you dont have valuable cargo- you'll be fine.
If you do have valuable cargo- then of course its a calculated risk.
I use AP all the time shifting ships and cargos of < ú100m around. As do most people.
If I had a hold full of officer loot- id be more careful.

Where does it turn yellow, in space? I usually just select the next gate in the right-click-anywhere-in-space menu upon loading the new system. I hardly think looking for yellow things on your screen wuold speed it up :p

autocannons without auto-repeat....
You'd go through several keyboards a week.
If you *CHOOSE* to play afk, and fly 35 jumps it's not hard to do the calculation is my ship worth ganking. If you *CHOOSE* not to do this, you stand the risk of snoozing and loosing.
If you *CHOOSE* to mission run in the most expensive ship money can buy and you *CHOOSE* to fit the most expensive modules in the game, and then you *CHOOSE* to run missions in the busiest systems (Caldari Navy) and you *CHOOSE* to ignore taking any security precautions, then you *CHOOSE* to have your ship suicide ganked from under you.
Do these suicide gankers just gank random ships? No they first have to lock and scan your ship to see (A) what is in the cargo or (b) what it is fitted with.
If you *CHOOSE* not to think about any of the above, then you have the word victim tattoo'ed on your forehead. Just remember, this is Eve, it's your choice. |

Surely you jest!
Raekone you are showing Stargates in the Overview right? And you do use People & Places to chart your course, hmmm? Then you should show yellow Stargates in the Overview for every jump along the way.

Is this a joke about AP sucking or do people really not know that if you go to the would map and say need to go to 6 way points you can just randomly select all the way points and get like a 40 jump trip and then optimize the route and end up only having to make 12 jumps?

Unplayable? Imagine 35 jumps in a monster ship like a freighter. But i have to fly it manually because you say it? Better find some fleet battles as you said, and leave industrial UNARMED chars in peace, you coward *******.
CCP must eliminate any "auto" system in the game. Including the auto-"can i have your stuff?"-trolls in the forums (what is the meaning of this stupid act?, to be the coolest guy??).

As far as I know, it's kind of hard to suicide gank a freighter, so I'm pretty sure you can auto pilot in that.
Quit whining. And out of all the ridiculous things I've read on eve, this is right up there. Eve isn't safe, if you want safe, go to WoW

If you're not going to quit, then don't complain, because that will never change.

Nope. I never let a group of PVP-wannabes to get my ship. But im tired of being in front of my screen each time i need to haul some ships or minerals because empire is full of "brave guys" trying to get some easy isks. AFK is not the same thing as using autopilot, FYI. Keep trying, but real PVPers are in low sec. You are just a troll.

So let me get this straight, Low sec gankers are different than high sec gankers because they gank haulers in low sec? And you don't go AFK when using autopilot? What is the point of that?
Sorry, but if you want to play eve, you might actually have to playit.

Playing eve is not setting a warp, then jump, and warp again 35 times in two hours. In the meanwhile i can chat with some alliance members, scan prices in the market, make some manufacture calcs with excel, and many more... But now i have to do it manually because secure space is full of kiddies with kittens.
Mieuuu!! Bsssssbsssbishhh!
Shut up and enjoy the autorepeat nerf. And brush your cat, he seems a little bit crisp.

I think this thread points out how much of an ignorant moron you really are. You want 40K+ players to change their game play for you, so you can safely autopilot through empire at the expense of your patients. Not to mention you have yet to argue your point in a rational, intelligent manner other than
CHAAAANGE FORRRRRR MEEEEEEEEE!!!! I WANT E Z MODE! and calling your opposers trolls for not agreeing with your narrow minded point, which I don't blame them.
Until you can do that, I highly doubt people can see the rationality of your point.

I¦m asking for a nerf because many people use Auto-repeat, but i cant use Auto-pilot. If you can¦t see the point of humour and sarcasm on my petition is not my fault.
Maybe, i need a EZ mode but, whats more easy than loosing a freighter full of goods in empire? Maybe, you just need to eat All Bran, or get a girlfriend, or change of aliance (AAA aren¦t funny), or something. Go to play eve and stop trolling. We allready know you don¦t understand my topic.
Mieu!
