After hearing about the warp to zero skill that you could train to improve the autopilot i think i kinda like the idea. Basically you will train a skill, which at level 5 will have increased the precision of your autopilot with 10km. This means you will land approximately 5km from gates or stations when autopiloting


More Easy Button AFKing!! Yay!!!! Oooh, oooh--- let's see it implemented ONLY in high sec, and ONLY in the high-traffic sectors where ganking is more common! Ooooh, and let's set a new rule where the bigger a ship is the faster it aligns and warps!!

YES!! Freighters now align and warp in one second!

OH, and all attempts to target freighters and industrials in high sec FAIL!!! SUH-WEET!!!!

Yeah, let's do that ASAP!!! Lol

So, I take it here isn't the right place to bring up making everyone land at least 15km from every gate?

I, too, want to spend all my time making bookmarks 15km behind the gate, just like we did in the old days.

It was so much fun.


Oh, I was there for that. I was thinking more of a warp bubble type effect that you can warp out of but not into. Trust me, I had as much fun copying those fraking things as you did.Cool

I have this lingering feeling that you are being less than serious.

Really don't see the point in making a skill like this. It'll just be another learning skill event. Forget the skill and just make autopilot warp to 6km, seeing as it'll be a skill that everyone will train anyways.

No, you wouldn't need it just like you didn't need the learning skills, but everyone will train it just like they did with learning skills.

Wouldn't a skill like this be counter to the whole idea of the removal of "must have" skills that CCP doesn't want in the game?

I actually like to play the game I'm playing. But maybe that's just me.


If you consider manually flying 30 jumps fun then that's fine by me, however I don't see why you should have to punish everyone else for not wanting to waste their time navigating high-sec gates.

It seems most people agree that it would become usefull, but some agree because of this it should not be implemented. But just because something is usefull does not mean it should not be implemented

You already have an autopilot which'll automatically dock you in a station, so you don't have to spend any time at all in-game when travelling from point A to point B. What is problem?

Travelling in eve can become one of the most time consuming activities and there is only warp to 0 which makes it faster the rest is watching pretty warp tunnels. I wonder if it's a big if CCP would increase warp speed of all ship by a factor of 5 or even 10. Just spend less useful time in a useless state.

And travelling in eve is one of the key ingredients of eve. Hauling things around takes time, some people want to spend less time hauling things around, so when they're down south they go to amarr instead of jita. Reducing travel time would reduce the incentive to go to Amarr. This is bad.

If anything, travel time should be increased.

Why does the autopilot suck anyway. With all the technology it lands you a lousy 15km from every object, and there is no way to improve it

It sucks so much because AFK gameplay shouldn't be equal to non-AFK gameplay.

That is very interesting. What do you think about someone putting up a market order, for up to 3 months and only checking up on it once or twice a week

It is a freaking SPACE game...SPACE...sure it takes time to travel...
by 10??
That would be (scribble scribble...) 30.000 times the speed of light...are you insane??
