if so,
would it be a good idea to go and destroy a bunch of them , that would then cut off all jump gate access for ships, in order to take out a large station, that is highly important to an faction?
what weapons would you use.... a whole bunch of DD
you would also get a large group of players each .with a DD
and start launching them at the jump gates. doing so you would cut off back up from the said faction that your now/going to attack.
you could also trap player to their doom, if the operation goes well. there for you could get some nice loot

You can, but it takes a LONG time. Even with a large dread/carrier fleet, it'll take you several hours to kill a gate. Without them, there are two ways to do it:
1) Battleships and a LOT of time. You'll need a lot of them, so you might want to try posting the location/time on the forums and asking people to join your gang.
2) Frigates. Gates have a weak point, if you can get into the center of the gate (where the jump animation is) and shoot at the gate from the inside, you'll kill it much faster. But only frigates will fit, as they're the only ship class with a model small enough to get in without just bouncing off. -----------

Stargates cannot be destroyed. By anything.
This is good, because if they where destructible, you'd find yourself entirely confined to empire as any alliance or corp with enough members/firepower could cut themselves off from the rest of the galaxy.
New players would be entirely confined to highsec as gates to lowsec/0.0 are destroyed by players wanting a place to call home. 0.0 warfare would be impossible rather than just difficult, not only can you not jump your capitals in to a system to attack it due to cyno jammers, you wouldn't be able to get a cyno ship or any other ship to take down the jammer. Be glad gates are not destructible.

the jump gates are re-"seeded" after a week of being destroyed

Really, its not so hard. Yes, it does take some dps but you can do it solo. Take your best ship with best fittings and go for it. Make sure you do it solo.

Heard some rumors that CONCORD and Jovians ships got the weapons to destroy gates, in case there's an gigantic invasion or a massive security treath that treathens the solarsystem. (Yes, the Jovians developed the weapons on the request from the CONCORD) So if you get a fleet and board CONCORD ships, you will be able to destroy a jumpgate.

I personally would like to see an ability to somehow incapacitate a gate for a time, maybe an hour, or several hours. But this would of course have to be a great undertaking to achieve. Might even throw a new twist into faction warfare by temporarily isolating key areas/routes, ect. I dont know, it would be something new. I remember reading long ago some eve storyline about how someone(a kid) i think was a genious and hacked the stargate codes or something and concord took great interest on how this person did it. Maybe its time that got leaked. :p |

It's not supposed to be funny. It's always a tragedy to see a great edifice like a Jump Gate Destroyed.

well whoever made this topic...why dont u tell him to destroy those concorde guards before he destroys gate.....tell him that the guards are emitting shields on the gate so he must destroy them first then he could destroy the gate in minutes.....would not that be more challenging? |

I wish you could at least Temporarily disable gates, similar to a POS reinforced mode. But never destroyable. Besides, I'm never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down |

Right so I almost believed you until your second point. |

Just stick a Falcon at the gate and a few frigates with rice-paper hulls fitted with warp disruptors. Jam the ship coming through, and then warp scram them. Same difference. ;) |

Edited by: Tractus Vesica on 27/01/2009 00:33:07 Whether or not you can destroy a gate is beyond my expertise. But I will say one thing.
If you can in fact, destroy a jump gate, is that really wise? You may effectively end up sealing yourself inside of a certain area.
In addition, if it is indeed possible, why are there no places in 0.0 and low sec, that cannot be accessed by anyone? Aside from Jove space of course.
