the solution is to camp both sides of the gate... and to bump |

Edited by: Kessiaan on 29/01/2009 05:21:48 Edited by: Kessiaan on 29/01/2009 05:18:59 In case you hadn't noticed, CCP has been doing everything they can think of that doesn't violate the 'spirit' of EvE to move pvp off the gates. It started with Warp to Zero (and maybe jump bridges, both went in before I started playing in '07), and continued with Factional Warfare (with its [admittedly broken] emphasis on plexes), big gates, increased frig/cruiser agility, an upcoming expansion that looks to, among other things actually make it *easier* for a skilled covops pilot to find mission/plex runners, etc.
Whether this is 'good' or not depends on the individual players. Personally I think it's a good thing as unrunnable gatecamps discourage people from moving out of highsec, make getting around in lowsec an excessive pain in the ass (0.0 bubbles I can live with, territory defense and all that), are boring as **** when you're the one actually doing the camping, and very few people that are just traveling have any loot worth mentioning.
Far better is a system that encourages the bears to come out and play, with the pirates doing some actual hunting beyond just control-click, F1, scoop loot. Sure, you won't catch 'em all, but if you can catch 20% of bears with all their fancy loots, you can still make some ISK, stroke your e-peen, and for the targets, it might actually move the risk/ISK equation to a point where it's worth it for them to come out and do what they do (missions, exploration, maybe even *gasp* mining).
I don't think we're there yet (SS -> Cloak is an instant defensive "I-Win" button, and anyone with a brain will see danger coming on the directional scanner at least a minute before it actually gets into scram range), but I think this is the direction we've been going in for a long time and I support further refinements. |

Gates are what you use for jumping from one system to another, not ganking. |

Yes. And the internet was designed for sharing ****, not playing video games.
It is annoying how many things people use in ways it wasn't designed for. Personal Massagers are another example, although less annoying. |

Yes i much more would prefer that i have no way of getting out when met with a scallywag with bad intentions. It would be so delightful to know that when i'm out there, if i get in a scuffle or spot an evildoer, that my ship would explode itself out of a sheer joygasm.
CCP please fix so that i can do nothing at all while the ebil pirates chew off my aaassets and use my pod as a rudimentary pinata.
That was sarcasm.

Escaping a gank does not mean the game is broken. It does not mean CCP hates PvP. It means you failed. Nothing more than that.

Solo PvP is somewhat possible. 1v1 never was, not when the players are fitted right. 1v1 is just tackle untill the fleet shows up. |

boo-f'n-hoo!
learn to pvp. its called "eve online" not "pad your e-peen by killing haulers and shuttles that you had to spend six hours camping a gate because technical spawn camping is awesome when you fail at real pvp online." |

Blah blah, camp both sides, blah blah, go one gate back on the highway to a normal size non-regional gate, blah blah, solo pvp can happen anywhere not just a gate, blah blah gates are not really meant to be effectivly solo camped, blah blah, and many many moar.

When was gate camping ever PvP, and solo even. Solo PvP died many moons ago, it exists in duels only (there and in FW which has a lot of solo/minute gang stuff).
Standing in a doorway with a baseball bat and playing whack-a-mole with people passing through is not hand-to-hand combat either.
If you have a ship that the person coming through has a decent enough chance at defeating he will probably engage if he is another PvP'er .. if it is a carebear, hell I don't know how they think, erratic at best |
