Sounds like just such a big wase of time. this concept of sov, its messed up in the first place. Sov should be contested like in factional warfare, multiple buttons of varying sizes to orbit simultaneously. break up da blob into manageable fleet sizes operating on multiple grids.

I agree, my posts are the ****. I make up for it by wishing I was had the hot looks of Sean Connery though.

Too bad, because if you blobbers could ever think outside of that 16th century musket block mentality of warfare you'd realize that when your enemy is piling 2000 ships into one system that means 2000 ships that aren't guarding everywhere else.

Next time try putting 10 fleets of 200 each in ten different places and watch your enemy's head explode. You'll most likely lose 200 ships (1 fleet) when they cyno their uberblob onto it but in return you'll pulverize their assets across nine other systems at once. Knock out their ISK faucets and you won't have to fight the next generation of blob fleets. Victory at last.

Oh wait, that would imply that were fighting to win a war and not just the e-peen glory of your killboards, and we all know that's just crazy talk.

I don't think you understand how timers work.

And, serious question here, no trolling ......... is that really worth the insane tedium, the frustration of these types of fights?


Eve's sov system seems like a race to the bottom - whoever is more willing to waste more of their life on this unbelievably boring mechanic emerges the "winner".


Abolish all sov, npcnull everywhere, make the game a better place.


No, and I wouldn't mind NPC null everywhere.

NPC null has the superior sov system.

Got at least 30+ dread killmails. Played some Borderlands while waiting in HED for the other side. Fight was laggy but to be expected. Was pretty hilarious in the end.

You do know that there is a limit to how far TiDi can alleviate said issues? TiDi has a max value and when that max value is exceeded you get back to the blackscreen country. Note, I'm not saying that TiDi is bad because it really is not, all I'm saying is that it's not a miracle cure all potion.

I went last night as an observer, I wanted to see a cap fight and experience TIDI. I was not disappointed. It looked cool as shite tbh even though I hate the big alliances with a passion. I was not disappointed except for when i crashed and couldn't log back in.

You've slightly missed one quite important point... no one wants to go shoot structures instead of the hundreds of supercapitals sitting in their space... Also that's assuming that your tactic would work, I watched a very interesting video about what makes an alliance win a sov war in nullsec, it's all about the pilots, the loser is the side whose pilots simply stop logging in for fleets. Now if I was in a 200 man fleet that got whelped to a 2000 man fleet because my alliance was unwilling to fight them I'd be a hell of a lot less inclined to log in for future fleets.

I should also point out that while everyone expected lag no one expected it to be nearly that bad.
