That is an expectation management issue... not a mechanical issue with the game.

CONCORD is not "half-assed." It does exactly what it is supposed to. Discourage certain behavior by enforcing a cost for unwanted aggression (again... in the form of War Dec fees OR the loss of a ship, security penalty, and not flying a ship in high-sec for 15 minutes).

They key word there is "discourage." Not "prevent" and certainly not "defend." Those latter terms are purely within the hands of players themselves.

How did you Veterans start?

Point conceded.

TL;DR If you didn't read the entire post perhaps you're probably ADHD. (seek help)

And yet you can still and all ways will be able to b attacked anywhere for any reason by anyone, with no warning. I think the system is still working just as well as it used to.

Edit: No to the OP don't fly in a pod if you don't want to get podded.[/quote]


Not arguing that just pointing out that the game does have systems designed to protect you this idea doesn't prevent you from being attacked anywhere for any reason by anyone, with no warning either

i don't agree with it i had just assumed it was a troll post so forgive me if i'm not taking it to serious

Concord should destroy ship and pod as long as your timer is running for concord action.

Is that my two cents or yours?

And this is good for the game in any way, shape or form because...?
