EVE General Discussion

I cannot seem to be able to finish that sentence, and neither could anyone on the recon thread , so, I thought to seek help here.

Just for the record, I am personally against the immunity and can find only negatives about it, please help me see the positive side I am completely missing until now.

So, give it your best shot, but please no "its good because i get easy kills", this actually goes in the negatives pile.
Also, please, no negatives, the thread above is full of them, lets not repeat ourselves.

Once more, "I believe the d-scan immunity on Recons is good because.."

go!

I believe the d-scan immunity on Recons is good because it further breaks a method of intel gathering and thus allows investigation of the effect unreliable intel gathering has on the game and play styles. This information can then be used in a future development of new or altered intel gathering mechanics.

tl;dr You have to cut the body open for an autopsy.

EDIT : Double post, please delete, thanks

It is good because it shakes things up and adds danger to the game.

it allows stealth without the need for a cloak and thus simply copy-ing the existing Recon and thus creates a "new" type of ship with a new style of gameplay.

For the record; I'm replying to your first post and sharing my opinion. I have no interest in convincing you of anything. In all honesty, your own strong opinion probably means you don't really care about mine, despite the impression your first post gives.

The definition of Reconnaissance is military observation of a region to locate an enemy or ascertain strategic features.

This is normally done by hidden and undiscovered units. A recon ship should excel at that, or it wouldn't be specialized for recon.

This is good as it allows intel gathering from all sides, which could then lead to more moves made against one another. Conflict and desire for increased power are the driving factors of EVE. Alliances moving against one another create some of the best content in EVE. Gathering intel on one another will generate conflict, either from an alliance finding a vulnerable target or from the recon being discovered.

IMO this can only be a good thing. If someone AFK cloaks in your system, and you all dock up until he leaves, you are missing out on some fun times. This is when you should be planning to counter whatever action the recon ship is there for. The ability to influence actions from other players it what the D-Scan immunity is going to enable. When you see someone enter local and can't scan the ship, docking miners and undocking PVP ships should be your action.

You really want to shake things up remove me from local when I activate my cloak

once again you see these dev's pull out idiotic thoughts and it causes the playerbase to foam at the mouth in rage.

I just look forward to the day these guys go way of greyscale..

yeah I said it so what..

they put this into the game..but dare not even touch cloaky campers and unlimited cloaking.. haha
