Awesome changes I'm seeing for this winter expansion. I've seen so many changes that I've always wanted. One huge problem though that i haven't seen addressed. Station games? Any plans to fix this? Always felt it was extremely annoying that people would undock carriers or other ships with no real danger of losing the ship.

Do not bump at such as short span sheesh.

2 players had the ability to look outside.

Combat only takes place in very limited number of place, Primarily it takes place on gates and stations. The reason being that short of scanning people down those are pretty much the only places people cross paths. eliminate station games and you pretty much knock combat down to gates only.

So not only no but hell no.

Can't dock while pointed - that would fix it.

Who cares about station games? If they're on station they're not doing anything else, so there is no reason to be shooting them unless you want them to stay in station, in which case them docking is mission accomplished.

If it bothers you so much, don't fight on station. I fight on station occasionally when people don't leave and usually get goodfights because I know what to expect.

it would be nice wouldn't it? If CCP showed you who was outside and let you leave by 1-3 diff exits, I'd say sure take away immunity.

No that would actually not fix it.

Cant dock while pointed + the ability to look ouside station while docked + the ability to run a d-scan from inside station before undocking would fix it.

The removal of the session change timer has made station games far less ghey.

Actually most feel that the reduction of the session change timer to 20 seconds while the period of undock invulnerability remains 30 seconds has fixed stations games. They won't exist anymore.

It takes two to play station games, if you don't like it then don't play!

You have that ability. It's called a second account and a neutral alt.

25 sentries outside the station would fix it.

Stations should not tolerate crime. It is stupid. Stations belong to empires, and empires protect citizens and visitors. Stations should not aid people with bad standings.

Imagine if the screen in the Captains Quarters was connected to a camera overlooking the undock.
