place the role in players hands.
leave gate guns on gates.
leave the disabled warp drives.
stop pilots ejecting or otherwise leaving the ship in anyway. ( placing into orca's etc )

when a player shoots another pilot without proper mechanics ie: suicide ganking , a beacon lites up so everyone in high sec can warp to that pilot. once the ship has been destroyed the beacon drops from local.

don't forget concord has not always been ingame.

discuss.

pew pew pew! KABOOOM!!


For clarity's sake, we already have lowsec. Feel free to go live there if you don't like concord.

Highsec is highsec for a reason. There is police and it's there for numerous reasons. Why should there be always more lawless space if people cannot even fill up and use the existing lawless space to the full extend?

I've seen this idea before quite many times and for some reason people don't like it.

I personaly find the idea realy interesting and if done correctly it could open up complete new ways to play the game.

Bad idea that has come up before (blah blah search feature, blah... whatever)

Look, I realize that some of you PvPers are so massively endowed that you love to go waving it about and slapping other players with it. Especially those who don't want to be slapped (because lets face it, who wants to be slapped back when you want to feel all manly by being the slapper)...

but the truth is, there are MANY people playing Eve who have no interest in PvP. Loosing the 'semi protection' of HiSec will drive a lot of people from the game. That's the way it is.

No Concord = bad for Eve

don't forget everything is better with bacon, even ingame.

Done.

Besides, the players cannot even react to events Burn Jita accordingly and only think about getting on some Thrasher kills instead of protecting ships. Laughable dreams that EVE without Concord would be a better place. (Truth spoken, however, Concord cannot and should not provide full security.)

Also, how do you explain a simple player jump from Tenal to a aggression beacon in Khanid in a T1 Frigate? Or do you expect the mere local dwellers in Niarja or Uedama to fight against gank squads? And how many people would just remove this beacon from the overview because it constantly pops up in numbers and blocks more important things.

Please, at least try to think about what you're proposing even if it's just a little bit. If you're incapable of thinking get someone else to consider the implications of your proposal prior to posting. Otherwise you just come across as a tool.

Even a cursory level of thought regarding the removal of concord from high sec would show that it simply isn't possible without CCP garnering a mass account closure from a large number of the high sec players.

No matter whether you think it would be "cool" or "awesome" or "lol", it simply isn't in the best interests of the players or the game, would cause massive problems for CCP, reduction in revenue and therefore reduction in dev resources.

Yes they have. They might not have been the "guaranteed instant death" that they are now (or rather, have been for about 8 years), but they have always been in game.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

Interesting mech. On one hand, sufficiently oganized fleet with alts and all that stuff will be able to lock down Jita or what have you.

On the other hand, unless shot hard enough, that fleet is stuck there until subscripion runs out. In the end I'm not sure if this change as presented will be a buff to hisec safety or otherwise Big smile

i would like to see concord nerfed to a reasonable level, still deadly but not invincible.
give concord ships about 1000-1500 dps at close range and around 150KEHP for a BS and change the number of spawned ships depending on system secs.

that way normal random ganker would still die in a fire but very big and organized fleets could cause some serious trouble

would also make an use of bilboards advicing other ppl to dont jump there :D

That depends how CCP decides to interpret it. People chat in email and it's logged in text on CCP's servers and the clients of all individuals in the email chain. So it could be interpreted as a chat log.

I do love the fact that you've ignored all responses other than the one that had nothing to do with your thread but was merely a polite suggestion aimed at keeping you from shooting yourself in the foot through ignorance and idiocy.

I've had a post removed that I posted which contained a message from a person who decided to message me repeatedly despite being told to keep the discussion in the thread and it was removed as it was in violation of said rule. Just trying to help you out.

Other than the fact you were clearly hovering over your keyboard waiting for a post you could attempt at replying, evidenced by your last two replies.

Rather than derailing your own thread, how about entering the discussion you started? Just a thought Roll
