Both true and good but warp times need to be faster. Either change it to allow for faster align, acceleration to warp, and warp, and deceleration all at once, or just do what you think is best but please CCP, make the warping faster. Combined with lag and server delays, this is a huge PITA and does next to nothing to better gameplay - except in pvp intense environments and even then, its mostly nullsec and blobs that would love an increase in warp travel time.

Have any players of note - those with actual weight in the community - brought this up?




Warp times are fast enough, it does not take long to warp across a system. Alignment is supposed to be slow depending what ship you're flying and the skills you have, gives more time for someone to engage you in combat.

What is it with people wanting instant gratification these days? Lifes too short to waste time wanting.

I want to be an astronaut but I want to be one NOW! I want to be a tennis star but I want to be one NOW!
I want to be an 1337 pvper and have the respect of my cyber people NOW!

How about those who want instant gratification go play WoW, NOW!

[also get rid of jump clones in their current incarnation of want to go to this place, NOW!]

Dear OP, there are a lot of decaffeinated brands on the market today that are just as tasty as the real thing.

Also, Steam is having its summer sale. I'm sure you can pick up some zero investment, insta-battle, no-wait, killKillKILLMOARNOW! FPS games.

It's already faster than light though.

Light travels ~7.2 AU in one hour. Some ships travel that in one second.

I'm pretty certain it would rock. Less time investment, more subscribers, more fights, more conflicts, more emotions - the big and the small ones!

I didn't suggest to change the current game anyway - I know some of you guys spent almost 9 years on "achieving" what you have today and wouldn't like to see your life's work destroyed (subconsciously you do but let's not get into that now).

I bet a second fast-paced (past-faced) server would very quickly exceed the size of the first one. And half of the opposition in this thread would be there too. P

Eve too complicated? Try Astrum Regatta.

When one of the major advertising points of the game is "single shard", we all know this is never going to happen.

Might be easier to just reskin the DUST toons as EVE spaceships instead... Although it would be odd to see EVE ships flying nap of the earth in atmosphere. Ah, well, if the Galactica could do it...

Then you'll just have three single-shards instead of two.

Warp already is faster than light.


Much faster.

1 AU/sec is roughly 259 × c.

Some unrigged Interceptors and Covert Ops ships travel at 13.5 AU/sec, nearly 3500 times the speed of light.

High sec and low sec guys (i.e. people who can't use bubbles and actually HAVE to fly and get point) would probably disagree... Well, except for the high sec freighter guys...

My interceptor should not accelerator to 13.5 AU/s on the same curve that a super accelerates to 1.5 AU/s at. It should be much quicker to get to top speed.

The warp speeds themselves don't need to change.

Although I will say, you've clearly never been fleet warped with supers in a heavily tidi'd system.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

Bad luck on being in a system with TiDi in effect. Game mechanics ARE working, just slower... Suggest null sec guys blob less and/or file a request to reinforce the node...
