EVE General Discussion

This is why I don't buy a freighter, too fat and slow not enough HP and hell I'd never move too much valuables in one move, I break it into 1/10 pieces cause as the old saying goes "all your eggs in one basket" I'm not that lazy I will move it slowly and with planning.

the solution is to put it in a courier contract and get collateral

let someone else lose their freighter, couriers work for peanuts

Hauling should have never been made as safe and boring as it is by adding Warp to 0.

End result, you've got complacent people losing 8 Billion in Cargo.

Karma.

o_O

That hurts.

1.7bn of fullerides alone, 1bn of something else, and that's just 2 of the stacks of items with other stuff.

so really it's "stupid freighter pilots are still getting ganked"

Sell everything and move to your new place, buy new stuff from idiots. Easier, no stupid tedious hauling game play, no ganking.

Profit.

Yes, if by “ignorant” you mean “using the exact definition”, otherwise no. It means exactly that: cost × probability. I think you're confusing me with all those people who think that there risk is equivalent to uncertainty. They're not. That's part of the point of having the risk concept.

Something with 100% probability is still a risk. The value of that risk is the same as the cost.

…and 100% probability is still a probability — just a trivial one. Probabilities don't end at 99.9r% (especially since .99r = 1 anyway ).

Yes. It's still the best way of describing it. They baked the death-cake. They can un-bake it.

There's choice. People are not making them. Instead, they stuff their freighters full of the most expensive cargo they can find and don't consider what options there are. They can choose to make their cargo match their value capacity.

The freighters themselves offer a continuum of cargo-vs-speed-vs-strength. Then there are the JFs. Then there's the Orca. Then there are the T2 indies. The current freighters are a perfect blend of cargo and hull. I certainly don't want to see my freighter(s) nerfed just because some boneheads refuse to fly them intelligently.

And yet they work. Ganks operate on a tight time schedule and DPS allotment. Make it take longer and/or make them lose DPS and suddenly it doesn't work so well any more. In addition, those escorts can web-sling the freighter and give the gankers zero time to attack. Oh, and then they can operate as scouts. The only problem with escorts is that people laugh at them rather than try them.

This



And this.

Stop with all the solutions. There isn't a problem which needs your solutions.

MOTHER OF GOD!!!......

Easy don't carry so much cargo that it makes it profitable to blow you up.
