EVE General Discussion

Stop that, his head will explode.

There is allready a d-scan disruptor it's called "50 Anomalies in one system all stacked near the sun".

so i'm guessing d-scan disruptor will affect anyone 90km from the structure. Decoy unit is pretty self explanitory. Local I bet will have a delay of some sort. with local window changes neither of these new mobile structures will save your bacon. muhahahahaha

Denying things means killing speculation, and watching people speculate is far too much fun to do that.

A comprehensive change to the current local chat channel combined with new deployables is an incredible idea. It will create so much content and add a new level to PvP. All the suggested deployables have offensive and defensive uses. Very clever! ;)

How are ganker's being trolled by Fozzie?

D-Scan has little to do with finding targets, which is usually done with neutral alt, who is ON GRID as a warp-in.

D-Scan has little to do with Orca pilots anti-tanking their "high-sec space RV's."

D-Scan rarely gets used by miners, as evidenced by www.minerbumping.com, so that is a non-issue.

D-Scan will certainly not help miners tank their ships...

D-Scan does not help a freighter pilot who is afk'ng down the highway, hoping they will get to their destination in one piece.

Same goes for the people who afk their 1bil+ pods through high-sec. How does D-Scan help them?

I find these changes to bring quite an interesting dynamic to the game, and would welcome them. Because in the end...who needs D-Scan when you have probes?

I would also like to see exactly how gankers, griefers, and undesirables of all types are affected by this? Because even if it is not implemented, it is merely business as usual.

So please, for the sake of humanity, use logic before you post.

Kthxbye.

At a 5 degree cone this is so much easier said than done. Now if you could lock the camera onto an anomaly like you can other celestials, that'd be another matter...


Like the mobile depot, these can be shot in highsec without CONCORD penalty, but doing so instantly enters you into a duel state with the owner. In a nutshell, this is CCP's replacement for can flipping.

The duel state would always be initiated between the pilot who shot it and the pilot who dropped it, regardless of who owned the can.

If you hold down a modifier key a little box appears in the middle of the screen, where your ship is. Slew the camera so that box is on top of the anomaly, and hit 5 degree d-scan.

Would not a "can disruptor" just be a griefing tool, to keep mission runners from looting their wrecks? (My guess is Masterplan is trolling us).

The obvious counter to d-scan disruptor is to use combat probes. Since the only way to see probes is to d-scan them, this should work fine. I might even go so far as to say it would be a bad thing to use if it also disrupts the d-scans of those inside it's AoE.

If it does not, since most w-space dwellers spam d-scan religiously, it would make w-space pve safer.

Another effect would be that bombers would have no way of knowing if there is someone in a particular anom or site without warping to it unless they want to cripple their fit. In that case, might as well fly a covops frig.

I don't see this being used by blops/covops because they already have cloaks.

The strongest case for this anchorable module would be to screen ratters from interceptors that pop into system. They would be forced to warp blindly to an anom and hope they picked the right one.
