EVE General Discussion

Well armed gate camps too. Which is really rather overkill when we're only talking about a 17 jump route. I can only really attribute this to people suddenly becoming active since the patch launched. It didn't cause me any grief mind you, I run around in bubble immune T3's when I travel so its no sweat.

But I find something a little disturbing here. Do people really see an expansion that gets them super excited, re-sub, and then decide to do nothing but sit on a gate? Is this the mentality we have adopted? Real life fishing is more fun. I mean you don't get an explosion (unless you live in Arkansas) but the air is better and the water is ultra high resolution, unlike the undelivered textures that are not a priority to deploy even though they are finished because Reasons™.

I dunno, sometimes it just seems to me that the majority of people out there, even vets, continually come back to the game with the intent of doing fun stuff and end up doing the most conservatively boring crap one can imagine. Why does this happen? Are peoples nerves really that fickle, or is there something actually really fun about sitting on a gate for four hours straight with the only kill of the night being the shuttle of a 1 month old character primed to become the next botting raven for their rival alliance?

Can't fault an answer so honest.

Dominus won this thread guys, the rest of you can go home

I presume this is a low sec or null route?

If this is the case the higher concentration of gate camps is caused by chars reading about the new mordus ships that pop up in low sec belts, sssooooo

There either protecting there assets so when a mordus pops up they strike it rich.

Or there just waiting for chars who are looking for these rats in belts and killing them when they jump into the system.

Take it as what will happen if you did press the red button that you know you shouldn't press

But pirates are pro pvp'ers...right?


Seems like they are only miners who have no asteroids, that can't be right.

I need a skirt.

Can anyone help? Preferably someone that beats their chest, please.
P.S. If you love the Sun, and June 21, that'd be great. Thanks.

It's summer.... moar people playing, moar often... just had a big patch... student unemployment is way up... and then there's all the wankers like me that play from work... mind you, i OWN the company soooo... call it a perk.

5 gate camps on 1 gate?

No. 5 Gate camps during the span of a 17 jump route, where I normally only run into only 1 gate camp the entire trip.... and that's "sometimes".


It was null though, not lowsec. I think if people are doing stuff to camp lowsec they are probably doing something right. I hear those ships are all the rage.

And then no one will ever die.

The game has few enough ways to force a fight as is. Chokepoints like gates and station undocks are one of the few places to actually get it done.

I mean, if they double scan resolution on every ship in the game and remove warp stabs, then maybe it wouldn't basically ruin the game, but even so the idea is asinine.

Nah, you know what's brave? Jumping on the forums after years of inactivity and telling every single person you see that they are all playing the game wrong, and then refusing to fight on any terms except your own.

That's brave as **** apparently.
