Well been sitting in station and notice Perimeter local go from 60 to 145 because of the Traffic Control Traffic Jam.

Two critical things happen after warping
1) You will have no idea Jita is traffic jammed until you attempt to jump through the gate at 0
2) A notification pops up telling you the gate is traffic jammed and for that moment you cannot activate mods/warp until you close it.

A few wardecers have reportedly gotten some kills from it (can't confirm)

Is this working as intended? Or was there some warning prior to landing on 0 at the Jita that I may have not seen (other then the 50 freighters on gate, lol)

-Thanks in advance

Who goes to Jita with a wardec? It's a killmail waiting to happen, traffic jam or no traffic jam.

Had something similar happen to me today. Ran to Jita to pick up some stuff. Landed on gate and got that popup and my brain was like "GET THE F*** OUT OF THERE! GET THE F*** OUT OF THERE!" since Blue Republic minions would have had me dead to rights in my travel-fit ceptor. Made it out okay, but I can relate. This sucks. Not to mention marketers/haulers having their assets frozen in Jita.

Definitely a problem.

Imagine if it was a blockade runner, decloacked at 0, delayed by the notification on top of the 3-4 second align time.

Anyone who goes to a tradehub during a wardec deserves whatever they get.

Anyone going to Jita deserves whatever they get.

Anyone who hasn't figured out the traffic jam at the Perimeter gate during peak hours deserves whatever they get.

Anyone who goes to Jita, during a wardec, during high traffic times.... well, you get the point.



Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Don't use the Perimeter gate while inbound to Jita.

This essentially. Don't go to Jita between 1800 and 0000 Eve time, especially not on a weekend.

This mechanic may cause me problems when I'm auto-piloting my anti-tanked freighter full of PLEX to Jita while wardec'd.

Please fix.

Working as intended.

It's all about risk management.

Who cares about wardec casualties?
Confirming packed Perimeter peak time gate is a fave of smartbomb BS comedians looking to remedy that shamefully high sec status that null ratting bestows.
Dem quarter billion pods.
Dem angry evemails.

When I started playing I had Jita as my home system. Thought it was a brilliant idea, until the node crashed 1 week into the game ... couldn't log in for a couple of days.

It's kinda a problem. You can sidestep it by using Amarr/Dodixie though.
There's also Rens and Hek, but those are way smaller.
