Warfare & Tactics

NO. Relax.

Firstly, it was never about some self-serving defensive plex thing. Even if it WAS all about defensive payouts, that wouldn't make her biased. There have been individuals on all four sides of the conflict that have advocated LP-for defensive plexing in some fashion or another, there's no reason to twist it into a partisan issue.

Secondly, you're still missing the point of her proposal, Susan was simply trying to address the need for an incentive to upgrade and defend *specific* systems, instead of just counting them collectively for points. Yes, WZ points are a powerful incentive, but it doesnt make defending Auga more important than Amamake. That sense of individual importance is sorely lacking, hence the systems traded freely cause no one cares about them other than for a point count. CCP was *trying* to instill the sense of individual value through the system upgrades, but its just not quite there yet.

As for SRS BIZNESS FW talk, from this point on let's keep it to serious threads. This thread started as a stupid troll attempt, I've already given it more attention that it deserves, so this'll be my last post.....I'm happy to continue the conversation over in features and ideas where I have been hanging out.

-Hans has left the building

CCP has gone through the motions every five to six months since the beginning trying to squash the timer bug (has consistently been tied to the damn timer so must be related) and Amarr/Gallente have been bitching and moaning about eWar being one of the major imbalances .. also since the beginning.

So not sure its proper to take credit for those as all it has probably required is mentioning it in passing and pointing to threads

Goddess yes.

I suggested that CCP should be forced to play the game or consult the playbase if they don't feel their knowledge of working mechanics is up to par before planning changes. Wouldn't even have to be a public thing (ex. F&I forum) but a series of virtual (ex. skype) roundtables on invite basis or something should suffice for most things.
They clearly have very little experience with the inner working of FW (alternative is that they are just daft/malicious), which is why I personally is rather irate as we have spammed issues and suggestions for fixes since forever but the recent changes only include the "latest" portion of it (ie. Farmers lamentations).

They have already admitted that they don't get to play as often as they might like, which is shame as a spreadsheet does not really convey the tedium involved with mining, orbiting, grinding EHP or any other of the multitude of things that one has to see/feel/experience to believe in this sandbox of ours.

Hans, such a damn politician.

Back when he posted a 20 page PDF full of nothing particularly useful and called for all other "highsec candidates" to "search their hearts" and withdraw because he was the one that was going to win... I figured he was functionally useless, and I was disheartened when he made it onto the council regardless.

I just wish the FW candidate could have been more focused on FW and fixing it rather than playing political games and screwing around.

m8m8m8 get your head out of your ass, pronto. Many ppl see this as the unofficial FW forum, and a lot of good ideeas or valid concerns are posted here, including in troll threads. If you wanna spend time only in features and ideeas, sure, by all means, but then don't wonder why you get called a selfabsorbedwannabespaceshippoliticianwithhisheadsofaruphisownassthathecouldlickhisownbellybuttonfrominside .

It is the right place to propose ideas that may be implemented within the next two-three years. Sure it is a good place to dream and speculate. But this is the place to listen to players current concerns. Wouldn't you expect that for an elected representative in the CSM?

I can't stand the CSM the whole concept is terrible none of that psuedo democratic crap represents me.

That Hans guy should shut up go sit in the corner and stop being the rubber stamp of legitimacy to the **** decisions CCP continues to make on a daily basis, so CCP can't keep claiming every fuckup was seen by the CSM first so lolololol it's not our fault it's terrible.

man you guys **** on your CSM

I think if Hans actually opened up communications publicly with CEO's of ALL factions and has a discussion about the state and FW, and actually presented it to CCP.... but nope

Because it's Hans

I think Hans did not ruin FW, Hans actually did nothing.

But we can fuckup hans business by taking minmatar systems, grief him to madness and make him to beg CCP to change something.

Overall it is about player actions in game, stop talking, take minmatar plexes and soon we can see minmatar systems turning to vulnerable.

When there is enough bunkers to shoot at someone will be interested about those.

Every single plex is a drop at lake, but after long rain it starts flooding.
