Wormholes

This is starting to feel like the hacking loot-scatter mechanic all over again. Is CCP going full steam ahead with this, despite 90% of w-space trying to tell them why it is a bad idea?

At this point this thread consists of basically 2 things: Schadenfreude, and wormholers against this change.

if the alternative is your little corp not getting to do anything until the larger corp goes away? yes, I say it is good game mechanics as it allows small corps to continue looking for content when they cant interact with their current chain options.

But I could do it risk free. Their fleets wasnt on 0 on wormhole. Thats whats wrong imo. The risk free part. And its only in 5/6-5/6 you have the option of instaclosing. Shoukd small groups be able to live in these systems? I suggest perhaps not. A lot of other systems to live in. And we are making this move ourself as our active numbers had a drop. So yes I dont support the argument that small groups should be able to live in 5/6-5/6

ive closed a WH with enemy T3 fleet trying to catch me. Thats not the point. With the new mechanics, there is no way to close when there is enemy unless you have big support fleet ready to pull you out if needed. Small groups will hav to log off and wait.

If you tell me how does that create content please?...

You got hotheaded and are not thinking straight. If you managed to solo close a WH with two hostile fleets around, props to you, but those fleets (better said their FCs) sucked hard or they didn't give a rats ass about you and instead were chasing each other. You know that there are tactics developed to catch rolling caps, right? So you prefer to not have the option to boldly close a hole but instead to POS up and spin, sounds legit! Even if I am to concede that it would be better to increase the risk involved in rolling a C5/C6 hole I still think this proposed way of mass-based spawn (which may put offensive caps 40km apart) isn't the way to do it. A solution that causes a bigger problem that the one that it solves is not a good solution.

I agree with you that isolating system in order to farm should not be possible but that could be easily solved by having the static force spawn (no matter if it was interacted with by players - scanned, warped too etc) on a timer (5 minutes so active players can scan it and have the upper hand if they are on an offensive prowl) and the K162 on the other side 15 (let's say) minutes later (or/and at first jump as proposed). Or at least make the K162 visible and interact able with.
I think we should charge CCP money for all these great solutions we are throwing at them .

EDIT - And absent rage rolling farming will be even safer. Granted one won't be able to schedule it but still safer when it will occur.

and yet the outcome will be ultimately decided regardless of all the feedback and solutions given.

it is NOT risk free.
ive killed MANY people closing WHs before and expect to do it again in the future.
It isnt hard and there is VERY real risk involved in combat rolling and anyone claiming otherwise is either lying or incompetent.

unlike now you could simply roll even when it wasnt safe. AFter change, nope. STuck, log off.

lol, so much hate. Well, expected.
Your hateful comments that obviously have no respect for anybody are really great. You are such great guy to have around. I wonder how, with such attitude and opinions, you expect to find ppl in WH. Sure, occasional explorers are there and surely you grow big when you shoot a heron on sun, prolly claiming to be pvp god of the week, no doubt.

But then try for once, with a reason, to reply to a simple question : How does affecting peoples ability to create content help the game? Since small groups will have it much tougher now and they are part of the game too, despite your inability and unwillingess to see it.
