I think that gang link ships should show up on killmails so we don't have any more of these "solo" pvpers making a video of them "soloing" with a gang link alt in fleet.

If all those gang link lokis started showing up on killmails all those Russians with tengus would look a lot less pro.

That does make sense. How it would be implemented with the current system I think may take some time.

As a user of Loki links I support this. Also, logistics should show up in some way/shape/form.

Can't wait to dual box my Dust toon and EVE toon on the same machine!

I agree but I think is just simpler to CCP put the damn boosters on grid as it should beRoll

I actually think gang boost effects should ONLY apply if they're on grid.

Duno how many agree with you but I'm sure a large part of Eve players agree with my statement. However and most probably the useless thing of boost alt added to killmails is easier to do than actually make things right and bring boosts on grid.

If gang link assistants show up on kill mails, then we obviously won't use them anymore. Not being able to cheat our way through fights where we're numerically outnumbered ten to one by utilizing moderately effective stat boosters will certainly mean that we will quit the game in impotent rage, thereby making EVE a safer, and more enjoyable, game for all.

This is the truth.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

or just fix the root cause by forcing all buffs on-grid.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

How showing something on killmail prevents one from still making a good/bad vid? Apparently you, as a no-name NPC-corp alt, haven't seen vids with the Falcon, have you? Big smile

it took years to get implants on killmails so I look forward to this 2017.

I can't wait!!

These are actually 2 seperate issues and both should be addressed. Alll ships contributing to the combat should be on grid and boosters and logistics should show up on killmails too.

Make faction war occupancy pvp instead of pve https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=53815&#post53815

Assistant sub category on km, would be excellent to see.
