Finally a good reason to buy/trade a faction scram... it has 3 points.


Yes and in the end you kill a low skilled crappy fit frig. Great victory and worthwhile PVP.

I think we have a special case here--these guys know they are after wcs plexers, and they know where to find them and they know how they are fit. It should be as simple as fitting your ship to kill a certain kind of NPC rat.

i've managed to put three points on my Crow (gets difficult due to CPU issues), but many ships have more lows than I have spare mids. Also, they often tend to warp off before I can get the point on them.

WCS is not the issue here. Being able to capture plexes this way is. As said before, having the timer revert to a neutral state if there are no friendlies or enemies about actually punishes the non-PvP plexer and lessen the effect the farmers have on the warzone.

Good Merdaneth;

Yes, I agree, if a system has been empty for a while, then sure, the plex values should drop.

I absolutely support this. It would troll the Gallente SO HARD, with Caldari having no system left Lol

Idea first came (not mine, don't know whose) about around the FarmVille™ presentation at FF, so while it would look like a massive troll now, I can assure you it is not .. back then things were fairly equal all-round or as equal as FW can get at any rate .. Big smile

Why is everybody so butthurt about not being able to get easy kills?

My PvP character only has like 4m sp so far.... he cant properly 1v1 anybody really, not enough DPS.... but he CAN do novice complexes and I find it very exciting to do so, even when Im just running away... its like a giant game of cat and mouse, and rather fun. I would say even with stabs I get killed all the time.. some people out there have good tactics for catching me, others dont.

How does this really affect you? Why are you so mad? Do you just not want other people to be able to make isk? Do you think low skill characters shouldnt be allowed to participate in FW? Are you mad because your side of the war is "losing?"

Or are you just upset because you keep thinking you're going to pad your KB by ganking that weaksauce rifter with your hookbill, and then you rage when the mouse gets away?

Why is it so important that CCP should craft the game to you?

Pretty much this. I have my fair share of WTs with WCS here in Gallente space. But I have even more WTs who run away at the sight of 1v1 or even 3v3s. Farmers. I just move on. So should you. To quote Bruce Lee;

Flow like water peeps.

Good Sir;

Just fit 2 warp core stabs and run if you get into trouble. You don't need a corp or fleet.
You can solo small plex's in a t1 rifter with 2wcs, thats as much as you will ever need.

This just gave me a good idea. When you go to a Plex gate with a shuttle or n00b ship it says something like 'This gate is not configured to accept...." and doesn't let you in.

Maybe WCS should also cause some kind of disruption to the Plex acceleration gates that means you can't activate them. In keeping with the reason enter said plexes and I'm sure someone get make it make sense from a warp theory point of view( I hope lol)






Appreciate this doesnt deal directly with the silly mining frigate thingy but its a start and would be easily adaptable. Easy to implement and I I cant immediately see any unintended consequences.

AFK/semi-afk plexxing needs tackling (heheheheheh)


How cute Kenny, how cute... I mean the timing. For YEARS your side could run plexes in stabbed frigates. Then Amarr was allowed to do it too for some months. Of course your CSM and your CCP dev friends made sure it does not last long enough to make an impact. Suddenly you had to kill all rats, just before Amarr could climb to T5, and just exactly when Caldari let Gallente take systems, as Gallente let them take systems many times before. This was Farm Wars 1.0.
Now we have Farm Wars 2.0, and once again those dirty Amarr Milita pilots are able to plex with stabbed frigs. I understand how much it hurts your feelings, as you are one of the many firm believers that there are 2 chosen militias in this game, and Amarr and Caldari should play FW like those roleplayers play EVE who decided to play as Sansha or Serpentis.
But seriously Kenny, dont get so mad about it! Just ask your buddies, Loryanna or Bahamut, they should be able to tell you many stories that happened during those years of farming with stabbed Vigils!

I think this is a bad idea, and you should stop posting it multiple times with different alts, Kenny.

I say let them fill their low slots with warp core stabs.

Instead have a dirty big warp disruptor bubble built into plex beacons.

If you are watching dscan and not afk you will still be able to burn out of the bubble and warp out before being tackled.

Stops afker, stabbys and gives me more opportunity to swear at my ships.
It would add some excitement if we were all yelling 'GOGOGOGOGOGO ******* hurry up you ******* slow piece of ****.' all the time.

hmmm ... please this is not relevant idea ... but would add some interesting situations ... why not to put 30km bubble around each button in every plex. Twisted

But anyway ... get rid off tier system and cut the lp store profits. Booom farmers are gone and FW is about what it was about - shooting stuff (and maybe teritorial warfare, but without pesky farmers). GO TO THE ROOT CAUSE, DONT TRY TO PATCH HOLES WITHOUT CONCEPT AND PLAN.

Because they would lose many valuable subscribers who run multiple plexing bots.

Everything is say is relevant or I wouldn't bother saying it.
