Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Hello Fellow Capsuleers

Here is another "How to fix local" idea.
I know that there recently was proposed another idea, and allthough i think that idea could work, i dont think its great.

Disclaimer: I am not looking for "easy" or "free" kills in Nullsec with this idea, only to reemphasize the good old idea of Risk-V-Reward.

On Tranq. currently, it doesnt matter if ur belt ratting / plexing in an empty system, with sec status 0,4 or -1,0. If someone enters local, u will know, and u will get safe at near instant speed.

Therefore i propose a simple change to local, that will change the "safety" of space to reflect the rewards better.

I would like to propose a time delay for entering local, based on the sec status of the system.

I believe that a 9sec local delay per change in sec status, would allow for more content for people roaming, and would encourage ratters to start using their d-scan, while also making covert ops, a more interesting ship to fly.

This change based on a 0sec local delay in 1,0 systems would mean
a 54 second local delay when u hit 0,4 lowsec
a 90 second local delay when u hit 0,0 Nullsec
a 180 second local delay when u hit -1.0 nullsec

This would also have the secondary effect, of making local intel harder to maintain, giving roaming gangs more room to maneuver, before they are locked down.

Offcourse there should be several instances where the delay is negated.
Talking in local, will instantly make u visible.
Getting a global combat timer(non npc), will instantly make u visible.
Docking in a station will instantly make u visible.

I believe that this along with the new ccp changes to "jumping" will allow for more interesting gameplay, and situations.

Plz keep ur feedback constructive

Im assuming that rewards are better the lower the sec status of the system in which u run sites.
Therefore there should also be a risk, its not all ships that have their own probe launchers, and there is no way in hell(or eve) u should be allowed to just carebear around in lowsec/nullsec.

No Risk / No Reward - its very basic

Why not have a mid/high slot module that removes you from local for a while?

Not showing up until your session change cloak would be enough/reasonable.

Stick to high sec trade hubs, shitlord.

With an relay of 3 Min a gang will be out of the system without apearing in local. Way to long.

So from now on i´ll have to d-scan like in FW ?

It´s like when i say let´s make the the Concord wait´s 30 sec in a 1.0 system after i make something criminal and so on.

And to be honest if its as easy as you said why is it that the highsec is overcrowded and the 0.0 is not ?

Still a don´t like the idea

What riches? I live here because i like it, but high sec is where the money is. Sure, sometimes i get a BS bpc or an X-type of this or that.

I like local, drag bubbles, bubble camps and jump bridges. You like being protected by concord and trade hubs but at least i don't want to change how you play eve because i don't give a damn.

If you don't live here, mind your own high sec business.

Too much risk=reward but i don't see you asking for removing incursions and l4s from high sec.

And please don't lie, your last roam into null sec was when atari released its 2600.

Thnk u for the Critism.
U are absolutely right, name calling doesnt help.
I Just have a personal problem with people using their "noob alt" on the forums, instead of their actual main.

Problem with alot of nullsec, is that each alliance there has an "intel channel", a player made channel where they share sightings of possible enemies. and what route they are taking. Since information is king, alone in this aspect of roaming in lowsec, my change would have an impact, as information will be delayed or outdated, at someone has to actually scout the force to get accurate intel.

Having a 3min time where u are stealth isnt really huge, since most cruisers or BSs are fairly slow, and even rather small warps takes decent time.

kinda of why something should be done about local. so d-scan isnt pointless.

it wont kill exploration. but it would make it harder for the dumb and lazy. the rest of us make more money.
