Sorry if I missed it, but what was the reasoning behind the changes that suggested a buff to AFK'ing?

Omnipresent scanning systems that will be realeased this patch or next.

These systems will assist in the removal of local by pining and noting what is present in system, and thus facilitate the new cloak and dagger game and return eve to the mystery instead of"red 6 jumps out, POS up"

If you read general discussion you get the impression the only legitimate form of play in EVE is gate camping and ganking and every change ever made to the game is being made specifically to effect ganking and gatecamps :D Got tickets on ourselves guys? Your not really all that important in the bigger scheme of things.


ANYWAY .. just out of curiousity can you light a cyno inside one of these things? ... and just how many caps and supers can you actually fit inside a 30km radius sphere in space ?

Sorry, who get's that impression?

As long as by 'you', you really mean you, then fine. But if you mean others, then that might be a wrong statement.

My general impression in GD is that while there are no legitimate forms of play all forms of play are legitimate. CCP is to blame for it all and everyone should just HTFU because we are all to blame.

As currently iterated, it will make the role of nullsec scout obsolete, unless your scout happens to be sitting in a nullfied T3.

Much like warping gate-to-gate without scouting it in some manner, warping blind to one of these will be its own reward.

You are blowing this WAYYYYYYYY out of proportion. Next time think of all the possible routes that involve this module before shitposting please.

+1, atm there are too many players staying cloaked up for HOURS just to land one measly kill on a PVE'er.
So they aren't AFK.
So this doesn't buff AFK play, it's actually a buff to "legit" (Whatever that is) play?

Seriously, it's a box. It says "Something is in here, maybe it's nothing, maybe it's your doom. Wanna open it?"

Altough OP seems to have a chromosome too much I tend to agree.
The bullshit ccp put out lately encourages a lot of people to rage.

I'm completely missing the point of this module. Do people randomly fly to scanned locations, uncloaked, at zero, or do they warp cloaked to take a look first?

I think the latter. So, pointless module is pointless.
