As a Triage pilot, I disagree. Triage goes where the fleet needs it. I agreed with everything you said up until that statement.


I'm talking about a lone person. As in one single capital trying to camp on it's own. Not with a support fleet behind it. Sorry should have clarified. That and it is 5 am.. x//x

The best part would be to see a carrier thats like 1000 times the size of a gate gun get wrecked in 4.5 mins.

Well thought addition to eve online Greyscale lolol

But then again, I unsubbed all of my accounts when unified inventory came out. I'm just counting down the remaining days. If this actually takes place... I feel for all of the low sec pirates.

I always tought that damage should scale, but the proposal is too simplistic. I think damage should start low, grow a bit but not up to the point where it can kill a carrier in 4 minutes. Maybe the guns should start applying ewar after a few minutes, dampening the ships etc after 4 minutes (making impossible to tackle anything not stupidly slow).


On my eyes the gate camping downfall was when warp to zero was implemented. the gate camps changed side of gate, because a fast lock game and very boring, Also they now were needed to be there all time, not out of grid then warp in etc...


CCP must think and find other oportunities and locatiosn for piracy.

Why do I feel that the whining about Low sec and high sec PvP has become a broken record, with the same things being whined about for years.

Seriously, 1 thread is enough.

In eve people need stations and gates and for a majority of time nothing else from a solar system and at the sametime people hate gatecamp and station games mechanics. Real fix isn't changing those mechanics but to introduce a reason for players to go anywhere else in a system and thus bringing the pvp out of gates and stations. If you wanna see other players you have maybe 10000 times better chance finding them at station/gate than at a belt for example. but thenagain we could rename eve online to gatecamp online... maybe it's such a key component in eve gameplay we really can't change it without too many tears.



That is why I always defended that the HIGH end belt ratting should be in low sec not 0.0. 0.0 shoudl have the best scanneble sites, adn low sec shoudl have Battleships paying up to 2 mil on belts.

That would solve SEVERAL issues with low sec.

It's not my fault I swear! But damn does wielding a Greatsword as a Warrior look bad ass. Sorry. I've played both GW 1 and Eve since middle school and their the only two games I keep coming back to.

It isn't whining when you are having a thoughtful discussion that could actually benefit players. Try again.

Stop getting low sec status then? go do real pvp in null instead of ganking defenseless industrials.

The problem I have with these issues is not that it doesnt solve the gatecamp issue, we dont gatecamp much if at all, but that it basiclly makes fights like this, this, this and this utterly unable to take place.

For those that cant be bothered to click links the vast majority of our fleet fights take place on or near gates and stations, buffing sentries in the way greyscale intends will get rid of most of our chances of having any kind of a fight that isnt a 'get in, shoot, get out' gank.
