right now we have high and null sec, low doesn't really exist.

if gate guns in low can be tanked by anything BC and up, just get rid of them CCP, be honest, low sec and null are identical right now.

a small pirate fleet shouldn't be able to gate camp in low, let alone a single loki.

we have high sec and null sec currently, if you haven't played the game continuesly for a few years, you can't leave high sec.

gate camps suck but just having better mechanics with the guns seems not to be the answer. some form of better intel would rule. something that also rewards campers for being cunning and possibly invisible.

forums.  serious business.

a warning system that lets you know if there's a gate camp would be nice.

low sec is still empire space mostly, doesn't fit in the game that pirates can just do as they please in it

That and a spirit healer so you can respawn faster. Will 30 seconds be ok for you?

easy fix to problem

no matter what, anything smaller then a BS dies if gate camping near gate guns, even with reps.

if you're going to gate camp outside of null, it should cost you to lose your ships

So not true. I'm a noob. Been playing just under a month. My corps main base is in low-sec and we're always having to deal with local pirate groups and regular gate camps.

Yep I've been blown up a number of times but I and we manage just fine. The majority of my corp are members younger then me game time wise. We have a few longer term players who have taught us survival techniques and how manage the risk.

I travel back and forth between low and high all the time. I played only in high sec for about a week before going to low sec. If I had stayed in high sec I probably would have more isk right now but boy was it easy and boring in comparison. Gatecamps can be annoying but part of playing in low-sec is dealing with them and playing with there existence. It means that sometimes what I plan on doing I can't so I do something different. It means each game day can be different depending on what other locals decide to do. It's great and so much more interesting all round.

The issue with low isn't camps. Its that there really isn't incentive to living there compared to high/null. Currently lowsec is the bastard middle child, when really it should be unique in comparison.

you omited the rest, i said in empire space, anything goes in null, i get that, that's a sandbox, but it shouldn't go from relativly safe to insta pop if not in a large corp.

u can get solo pvp in low no need for alts or others helping

what more incentive do u need to go to low sec it's more fun risking a cheap ship in pvp than running missions or mining all day
