EVE General Discussion

Let me be the first to at you.

2nd

It was the 2nd not the second post.

CCP already commented on this. Greyscale said if people want devoted taxi alts, thats their business, they believe pilots will always be the bottleneck over ships. Fact is, to get that "taxi" alt to move the ships much faster, youll have to burn them through and get a several hour cooldown anyways, in the grand scheme, maintaining enough alts for that sole purpose to make it a viable alternative would likely end up being so economically inefficient as to be laughable.

Devblog day one: We're going to start fixing null.

CCP announcement a few days later.

Good one CCP. 9/10

Ships don't have much data associated with them. Players do.

That's why forcefield passwords belong to the pilot, not the ship, and un-piloted ships can be ejected.

Of course, repackaging a ship would just reset any associated data.

Pretty sure that was already built-in to the system.

Ok. I'll get all of my alts to pilot JF's and jump them throughout nullsec then repackage and ship them to jita to sell. Now the poor sucker who buys them will get a JF with 6 month cooldowns while I manufacture my next set of JF's to put all my fatigue in until it can no longer jump within an acceptable timeframe.

Now imagine if the CFC did this to their subcap doctrines. They jump their baltec fleets all around and then sell it to Jita with their associated 6 month cooldowns as they laugh at all the empire space capsuleers suddenly being burdened with those jump cooldown as they manufacture their next set of baltecs to drop on MoA and friends.

Same thing with caps and supercaps. Poor big C will have to jump that leviathan around via gates to put it into his 3rd party POS for the exchange. Imagine the market being flooded with dreads with 1 year jump cooldowns.

As for this, I'm not sure if you believe it would be a viable workaround, or are typing it as satire, but lets pretend for a moment that you are serious;

What you are talking about is a huge regular influx of fatigue saturated capitals from null to high. Given that lots of people would adopt this, there would almost immediately be massive oversupply, and noone would purchase caps that werent packaged off the market, thus meaning 0 demand. You'd saturate your caps to 6 months of fatigue, then unless you could repackage them to wipe the fatigue, which I imagine would be blocked, you wouldn't actually be able to sell them. So, more realistically, you would accumulate 4 or 6 sets of capitals, that you would use on a rotating basis as their fatigue periods cooled off.

As for the jumpfreighters, you can already make a heap of jumps in 1 day without building up a really bad fatigue timer, so you'd actually be wasting more time trying to sell them, than simply waiting 6-11 minutes each jump for the fatigue to wear off, where you are already made to wait a similar time period simply for making the jump.
