I would just like to remind CCP of how stupidly large some of these new gates are. I can't imagine CCP did not think of the implications of these enormous gates, so did they just not care? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Brought to you by the letter ARRR!" |

i think they're slowly trying to make this game easy-mode to try and attract a larger customer base.

It's vaga, drake, abaddon, devoter. But that's besides the point. The point is they made catching targets at gates (not just gate camping, chasing targets down, too) significantly more difficult for the purpose of eye candy. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Brought to you by the letter ARRR!" |

Large Gates.. Psh go to your closet, The gates are big because you got big ships flying in and out of they system so it makes since to me. also you want some cheese with that wine? Your signature is too large. Please resize it to a maximum of 400 x 120 with the file size not exceeding 24000 bytes. If you would like further details please mail [email protected] Applebabe |

I'm pretty sure they made region gates larger intentionally.
Uh.
Camp in-constellation gates instead? :p

Proof? Coz it seems more like a stealth nerf to gatecamping, which is a good thing :) ---

Yep. They definately knew about it. They also finally learned to stop announcing these types of changes and just implement them. Personally I've been suggesting they do that for quite awhile. Discussing their plans for changes with us as if we are rational grown-ups only leads to pain and suffering.

Yeaz, they is big ships coming in EOA, but not Amarr, makes since to me too!
The new Gallente boarder gate has a twenty kilometer radius. That is entirely unacceptable. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Brought to you by the letter ARRR!" |

Yeah, it sucks. Deal, everyone else is.
Camping the most traveled systems linking off said entry point is probably a better idea. Or you could realize you're not going to get tiny ships and live with that.

And going into 0.0 choke systems should be a breeze.

We do not have problems with the region gates. 2-3 Large T2 bubbles and a couple of HICs and we're set.

I think they thought of the implications, and then happily accepted the positive impact on gameplay for most players _____________________

Well judging from history I'd say CCP feels the opposite about 0.0 space.
I was actually surprised people didn't complain about this change more when it happened. Think it just proves my theory that if CCP doesn't announce the change, we won't care.

This is actually the first time we've gone to camp a gate since QR hit. I'd probably have brought it up sooner otherwise. =)

I think it is more "not noticing" than "not caring". That and the percentage of Eve players that camp gates that were affected is extremely small. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Brought to you by the letter ARRR!" |

Forget the camping...
What happens when you chase a hostile into a system with a big gate? You know- good fair one on one stuff. And then you come out the other side of the gate to him, and are 50k away with no prospect whatsoever of getting a point?
Sucks tbh.

0.0 soo full of jump bridges, that usually the emppire/region gates are the only used normal gates, everything else is done with JBs. But I really guess all those small gangs in 0.0 desperately needed another nerf, and all those 0.0 alliances were pre-nerfed and they deserved the boost as well.
