Can CCP please sort out the mess they have made of the data/relic sites, current designer should be sacked or return him from the opposition company he came from.
The problems are as follows; far far too many rocks and obstacles preventing the hacking ship from even getting near enough to hack, if the hacking ship happens to get close enough, to hack, after a sucksessful hack the loot containers are spawning 5000mtrs away from hacking ships position, (can not get closer than 3000mtrs to containers to be hacked, hack spawn containers are spawning on opposite side a further 2000mtrs away), no way to get near containers because of all the crap CCP insists on put in a site????. This is a IDIOTIC design. Hope this is NOT going to be another 5 year mess before CCP gets its act together ie CLOAKY CAMPERS. EvilEvilEvilEvil

as you were friends, the rest may continue scratching your heads.

I'm a major hacker and have never had a problem with getting stuck on 'stuff', also, I orbit my ship at 1000km (Actually 1500km cause my ship is too fast) and usually have no problem getting the containers w/ an AB if they are far.

Aye never had a problem and ive done sites from, hi to WH.

BUt your right, sites should have nothing in them except containers because we all like dull and uniteresting visuals... infact just get rid of the all the models and space in general and have lists instead...

I dislike the close and personal approach to hacking, I usually prefer to orbit something at the next system and get the containers delivered at home.

I think it would be very boring and bland if all the data and relic sites didn't have anything in them.

Only recently have relic sites been ship wrecks with gas clouds around them, before that they were just lumps of metal floating in space.

It's not just for show, I once found a black monolith in a data site in null space, others have found a blank sign.

The rocks and such your bouncing off are for decoration, and after all, your a pilot, fly around them.

I think the main complaint here is not being able to get within 3000m of the can. I notice this alot in drone region space. If that is where your at just leave the loot and quantity of sites is so bad. They removed npc from sites but not drone region. Expect things to be broken in this game, unfinishe, and left to rot. 20 percent of null sec is rebranded as crap sec. Just another example of the fine work of ccp. But hey keep working on those tooltips.

Drone region has ALWAYS been crap. Don't like it? Don't move there. Already living there? Invade someone else's not-crap space...

Did you read my post? The part where I advised to move out of drone region yet your telling me to? Of course I left. I was stating that's where I've encountered this bug as well and an example of how ccp has handled their game development.

Awesome news there Big smile

It must have been a drone site, and I should mentioned I have done quite a few sites, not new to it, was doin scan sites bout a year b4 this 1click ****.Cry

I had noticed on/in several sites my ship cound not get closer than 5000mtrs to the structure that we hack, and , after hacking, the can spew out was a further 2000-3000mtrs on the opposite side of hacked container, this is for clarification as well as the enjoyment of kicking dead horses, ie moot point now.

and I aint gunna mention Cloaky Camp Clowns at all! Blink

makes me lol, seeing some of the responses to a thread, some responses are soooo far off the mark, it was obviously posted to wrong thread, or was it.........

as you were friends, the rest may continue scratching you heads TwistedEvil
