yes we should just give exhumers the agility and speed of a dramiel, the tank of a brick damnation and the mining yield of a hulk just because

i guess a damnation should be able to mine just like a hulk then, because it's expensive too

You forgot neuting power of Curse. Because neuts are the modules that seperates Minmatar from inferior races.

the curse is an amarr ship

i thought the gold plated hull and "amarr cruiser" requirement would give that away

with crimewatch, ganking idiots who officer fit their mission ships and carry 20 plexes in shuttles will mean that your mule alt will have to deal with being shot at by dudes with neutral logis that you can't shoot at

and you can't really kill that proteus yourself because, well, it's basically you vs everyone in hisec, and his RR alt that you can't shoot will keep him from dying


Your griefer tears are exquisite. Please go on, goon scum.

Sad times we live, the last true old school sandbox mmo being is ripped apart. Even the forums have been "trammelized".


First of all it's not "the last true old school sandbox MMO".

Second, EvE is dying since 2003 and also being Trammel-ized since they made CONCORD un-tankable, added warp to zero and nerfed nano boats. Long live EvE!

no, Crimewatch IS effectively Trammelizing it considering that they're doing literally everything they can do discourage suicide ganks even on those who decide that a shuttle is the best way to move 70 PLEX around.

You should go play another MMO if you want to safely PvE in a designated safe zone.

How is crimewatch doing to stop you from blowing up the shuttle?

I'm a relatively respectable citizen. Multiple felon perhaps, but certainly not dangerous.

Man, I blew up in shuttle once in low sec. My only kill in several years of game time. .......... and damn, it was worth every second. Hahahahahahaha. I showed that autopiloting moron. Cool

It's not going to stop you from blowing it up, just from making it worth your while. It's going to equalize response times in all of hisec, so system sec is absolutely irrelevant. Killing anything will mean that you'll be chased by faction navies because your sec status will instantly go -5. Anyone can shoot you for looting a wreck or can - not just members of the player corporation "owning" that wreck/can.

That isn't a "reasonable consequence," that's a complete and total nerf to virtually all PvP in hisec that takes place outside of dumb ~honour fights~ and wardecs.

"Cold and harsh universe" my aching ass. Trammel.

Oh, and "risk/reward?" They're rebuffing incursions and nullsec is taking another nerf.

Not to mention that the dudes shooting you can bring all the RR and ships they want, and you literally won't be able to RR yourself at all.

Piracy will still be possible, but it will simply be a full-time job that nobody will bother with. Or they'll figure something out and CCP will nerf that. vOv

The tears are strong in this one. Nothings set in stone and you cry like a baby already.
That aside, it was plain stupid that you can gank a mining ship with a few catalysts, even if it was tanked to hell and back. You do know that the amoutn of tank you can fit in a mining ship is very little. You are basicly crying that you no longer can kill something with just one ship, you actually need some more team effort in it. Funny right, team effort in an mmo, must come as a shocker.

Sounds like I need 6-10 friends who just keep making new trial accounts. Great gameplay. I'm glad CCP finally found a permanent solution to the suckiness that is their sec system.

I don't care if the finer points aren't yet set in stone. Even if it isn't implemented, it's indicative of CCP trying to convince themselves that they are not "Trammelizing" the game because you "can still technically engage somebody in hisec but we want to discourage it as much as possible."

It takes more than a few Catalysts to gank a mining ship in 0.7 space and above. In 0.8 and above, you will need alpha.

As opposed to miners being told "bring RR" and flat-out refusing to invest any more effort into their gameplay?
