Ships in space stay in space

If you log off in space your ship stays where it is, stays on any grid, stays on dscan BUT becomes unprobable

If it stays on DScan but is unprobable, what's the point?

Because the Legacy Code has too much Psssssssssssssssh, nothing will ever get fixed until CCP stop wasting money on failed sparkle MMOs and instead rewrite the entire backend of EvE from scratch.

And every supercap pilot ever vomits blood in unison. Brilliant.

Are you a forum alt? Have you ever wondered why your experience on the forums is always so frustrating and unrewarding? This may help.

1. just because it is unprobable, doesn't mean it cannot be found.
2. If you d/c and your ship stays where it was (gate, belt etc), and you cannot get back on because you have internet issues, it is a bad way to lose a ship nor will it be replaced by CCP as it was not an issue on their end.

Because of the above 2 points, this is a bad idea.

E-warp is a thing for a reason. -1

Ships disappear from space so that the server doesn't have to keep track of their position for ten days, thus reducing load. -1

You're playing the wrong game if you want kills just "accidentally" handed to you. -1

Precisely. There is only so much realism to expect from a video game - especially one where you can shoot through members of your own fleet and opposing ships to hit your target. Blink

Cloaking is the closest thing to a "Pause Game" button one can get while in space.

Support better localization for the Japanese Community.

basically you are so bad at pvp that the only way to get a kill is when the ship is not piloted?

So, ruin wormholes.

Nope.
