Back then crimewatch2 was introduced at Fanfest, this comment was made in the forum thread

Can-flipping as-is will be impossible once the safeties are added. People should be able to choose to do dumb things, but they should also have the information they need to figure out that the thing they're doing is dumb.

Duelling we're planning to support with an explicit mechanic rather than the current hacky workaround.


OK, CCP: where is that explicit mechanic?

Can't you just set each other to blue? I always thought you could take from cans belonging to people who have set their standing towards you to max. Maybe I'm wrong.

i'm still trying to get why was so much tears and cryes on the forums from those who will be flagged?

Basically it is not so different when you flagged to 1 carebear or to 100000000000..... Cool

Go back to your hole...

I seriously thought it worked very well, and thought the idea of people going around looking for suspects was awesome.

It's quite fun now to go roaming looking for suspects in Highsec.

@CCP_Punk. any ETA on a possible fix for the 'Killright not available' or more importantly pilots with available killrights not showing up in the overlay as they should?

That doesn't work for wrecks before fleet was created. You CAN release the wrecks however. But that wasn't done. So the looter got flagged.

Not a serious issue the OP is reporting if you read it, he is giving kudos.

Would he have been flagged if he had been in a fleet?



Well, I was in his fleet. But I was not in the fleet when he killed the Rat in the system.

So, if I was in the fleet when he killed the Rat, I would not have been flagged.


Wrecks can be blued; all he needs to do is right-click one of them and select all in vicinity. That could have been avoided easily.

..also, give people an excuse to shoot your ship and they will. Expect that. Smile

Exactly, I was giving kudos to the mechanic and the suspect chasers... just thought that since I liked how it worked I would say something... nothing less nothing more

I almost killed myself because of the new crimewatch. I was out doing some comso missions and had to do a belt ratting mission. Jumped to one belts and it had some wrecks with a little mackinaw mining there. I went to one of the wrecks to see if my item I needed was on one of them and there it was, looted the item and warped off to turn in the mission and start the next one. Warped where I was needed was killing some npcs and a proteus warped in started to attack and started to warp jam me. I started up my MJD got 100KM off and warped to a station and docked...

Like say, a friend and I want to fight one another for practice or see how something functions etc... can that be done without alarming everyone to come and kill me ?



go to lowsec and fight in a belt?

This one's a bit over the edge guys.

Locked for breaking... well, pretty much all the rules.

Pretty much this. You guys did a marvelous job creating a simple easy system. But it's simple in a sort of crude ham-fisted way. Being a target to all of EvE without being able to shoot first is kinda silly. It's just a bad version of low/null. Which is probably one of the goals of the system. Drive PvP out of hi-sec to low/null "where it belongs".
