Warfare & Tactics

Again a "kill all farmers thread".

FW is still broken like hell.
I changed militia from amarr to caldari. I really got sick with farmatar militia.
And what do I see in cal/gal fw? Farmatars everywhere. And do not tell me that are all alts.
There are enough farmatar from well known minnie (sometimes even pvp!) corps (epta, true horde).
I know CCP give a damn f... about fw actually. But the system is so broken that it really hurts.
Everywhere are stabbed runaway minmatars farming the hell out of the warzone. Yes I mean the cal/gal warzone! Because these nasty cicadas have alredy farmed amarr/minmatar warzone down.
PVP has almost absolutely NO influence on warzone control
So CCP made fw like a war you win the best without fighting and where the best solution is to run away.
That is damn /&%"&/§

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

Edit: YES I AM RAGING!!!! I see here sometimes more minnies than gals in cal/gal fw. The difference is the gals somtimes fight and the minnies run away.

Edit2: To Mnemic: Next gate camp you can make in cal/gal wz. There are more minnies here than in amarr wz^^

I am prolly already on the damar side since I chased all those stabbed minnie slashers in august2012 ^^

says farmer

*poasting in amarrtard weeping thread*

Didn't see you complaining about farming when amarrs held most of metro and the whole auga/dal constellation due to the farmarr alt horde.

Maybe your shoes have strategically placed spikes so they make you weep piteously only when you put them on the other foot or something.

Hypocrite.

U mad?

I think you might need to see a Doctor about that pain in your butt too

The way i see ii, you have 2 options.

1. Decouple ISK from plexing, this being the cause of and the fix for farming. Low sec population dies off again.

2. Slightly tweak the current systems tier rewards, add timer rollbacks, no stabs in plexes, something addressing evasion cloaking. This does not stop farming, just makes it slightly less passive. But those of us wanting to maintain a target rich environment are happy.

I think the curent system is ok. But it is scary how caldari, with their own fair share of farmers are hitting 35k VP per day yet make little headway into the occupancy. I wouldnt b surprised if matar farmers were hitting twce that VP, which is approaching inferno levels. Though their rewards are nothing like inferno, so its hard to say its as serious a problem.

On the other hand, there is little appititte to bust bunkers in gallente right now. So once the easy systems are vuln, the farmers will no doubt switch back to caldari. This will cheer certain caldari up and the forums will be ablaze with posts telling gallente we suck and that the system ROCKS lol.

You want a fight? Come to Nisuwa during US TZ late evenings/early nights and ask for a 1v1 in local. I'm sure someone will oblige. Or if you want, you can open a plex and see how many stir. Kedama is a good place for fights, as well. Quite a few pirates as well as Gallente and Caldari are all active there for what seems like most of the day.

This game is what you make of it. You can spend your time complaining about farmers, you can chase/kill them, or you can go and find fights and not even worry about the farmers not in your home system.

Not to mention most of those fixes were discussed during pre-retribution fw changes talk. Unfortunatelly, I guess we'll have to wait for two more months (Odyssey) for any changes to be implemented

Amarr just cry endlessly regardless of what's actually going on.

I remember not too long ago Colt died in a plex to our scout, the fight was over a good 20 seconds before any of the rest of the fleet arrived and he still managed to spend a good few minutes crying about blobs and dishonour in local.

Broken whinebot is broken.

It shouldn't be possible for farmers to jump militias, or at least, it shouldn't be as easy as it is.

Edit: farming has nothing to do with a specific militia, it is a FW-wide problem, and the swarm of locusts only follows the most lucrative harvest.
