EVE General Discussion

No, no, NO, NONONONO.

CCP has shown that they are willing to revise their stance on unfair gameplay mechanics. Automation in all of its forms, whether in built or not are detrimental to the health of EVE Online & must be removed to provide an immersive experience for all.

Why in the name of the Flying Spaghetti Monster's noodly appendages would they need to make anything right? You can still use that game time, whether you choose to do so or not.

Yes, once CCP removes this botting mechanic from the game I am more than willing to do things as they should be done. CCP has shown that they are willing to revise their stance on unfair gameplay mechanics, particularly where automation is concerned. Be worried for your days are numbered.

are logitech keyboards with macro keys now also prohibited ( if i use the 1 or more of the 18 macro keys)?

if so please send me the info i need to claim 150$ from ccp for a new keybord, or send me a gamer keyboard that does not have macro keys ccp, tyvm in advance.

Using the keyboard won't get you banned, using its function to replicate commands will. Just like ISBoxer isn't banned but its use to broadcast commands to multiple clients is, use your brain.

Banning Is Boxer it will bring a lot of satisfied people in EVE but only on short period of time, banning that program from a form of using it for mining ops it will get to increasing prices of ships and equipment in EVE universe, so it means there will be no more small gangs while small gang will be countered with larger and more organized group, so there you are getting again large scale fights with limited engagement, while every FC will first calculate ship reimbursement

this means small gangs of people who can not afford to lose fitted cruiser that cost 150 mil are dead.

second thing is that price of PLEX will for a first period of time drastically fall down, while there will be no more multyboxing after that due lower income on selling plex some of people might stop bringing PLEX on market while there is no reason to pay 15$ for few cruisers

and third is that CCP will suffer large loss on subscription income, while each serious miner in eve have minimum of 10 mining accounts, and there is many of them in eve

my opinion is that with banning IsBoxer from this game will slow down playing tempo and with time it will become expensive and slow boring thing where most of players will calculate do they can afford to lose ship today or not

My god finally, thank you person who made this real, I start to believe ccp understands what eve players need

The problem with the logic is that if cruisers jump to 150 million, the typical person, crazy person, or anybody, won't bother buying them. Market gets flooded, people want to sell it, price drops. The market balances itself out in the end.

Not worried about it (then again I fly around in crap made from gas not rock).

You cannot use the threat of "the market" as a reason to change or not change something.

wont this just mean that a person has to bind more keys to there keyboard. f1 can be guns on client 1 f2 guns on client 2. So I would say see how the changes shake out once they are live. I'm sure the isboxer that tries will still find ways to do most of what he does and still be legal, just with a little more thought and planning in the set up. Along with the fact that isboxer is will to make changes to better adapt there program to the game.
