The Null Bear only cares about what benfits Null Bear.

So push for the removal of Local. Without Local the absolute safety the Null Bear enjoys in Null Sec goes POOF in an instant.

And in that same instant, the Null Bear will begin whining about how useless the Hulk is. And no, it won't take longer than a second.

You want mining ships buffed?

REMOVE LOCAL.

Local does f**** all for High Sec anyway.

DOWN WITH LOCAL.

lol

almost nobody in nullsec cares about hulks,bro

even if they did, no buff is going to save you when you're "tackled in THE belt!"

tl:dr you're an idiot, and either a troll or mentally unstable

KEEP LOCAL FOR EVA!!!

With local, game extremely skewed for the benefit of gankers anyway.

Without local, no point for hulks to even undock ANYWHERE.

does this also mean removing statistics from the galaxy map? because that would kill low-sec courier runs.

From an RP aspect, you're a dumbass. The whole reason why WH's don't have local is because it's Unknown space. Everywhere else is Known space, thus local. Removing Local will *not* "help" Hulkminers. You're an idiot.

That certainly explains why no one mines in wormhole sp-

Oh no a flaw in your theory. Sad

real 0.0 players don't even check local, we scan scan scan, so yes, if there was no local, it would make the game harder. I support this.

Honestly I don't know why local hasn't been removed years ago.

I'm definitely in favor of making all local work like wormhole local.

If you want delayed local, move to a wormhole. It works there because:

  • cynos do not exist
  • routes into the system are not static
  • supercapitals do not exist
  • stations do not exist
  • there is a lot more dependence on probing

    • These are the exact same reasons, however, why delayed local would not work in nullsec.

    Here we go again:

    While removing local allows you to sneak up on the unwary, it means that you would have to actively scan every single system all the time both when looking for a fight or when avoiding one. EVE would no longer be a PVP game but a game of hitting d-scan and fiddling with scan probes. And just when you have those guys scanned down, they move.

    Plus darwinism would mean that the "unwary" would not last long at all in this game and they would a) quit or b) become wary. Therefore your only victims would be newbs. And we all know how ****** the growth of EVE's player base is.
