Player Features and Ideas Discussion

How bout squad warp, let us have squad warp, atleast then the multi's of the game can have fun as usual.

i was going to make a post trying to reason with you but after having read the general attitude of your posts i will do as you want me to

sit back and decide if i want to " be a good costomer and pay my subs and shut up when fozzie ( would have called him what we normally do but you are somewhat sensitive about that ) or if i will start scaling down on how many chars i will keep.

And thus ends the days of shepherding noobs in fleets around eve.

This restriction will need to be taken outside behind the barn and shot for things that are on grid. Otherwise it becomes a huge nerf to brawling when you have to first warp one person onto the enemy fleet then warp the rest of the fleet to them. Given the tendency for kitey, damage projecting ships (including sentry drones) to run this current meta, I don't think that brawling builds need this kick in the nuts to their power level right now.

This is the only real flaw I see to this change from a combat perspective.

From an out of combat perspective,

As has been stated above I echo in vernacular "Dude, why the f-ck are you adding all these unnecessary steps to warping a newbro to a site, or doing an escalation with a friend. People carpool for a reason in the real world. Don't make us take our own damn vehicle each time."

RIP good Fc's. Eve's a hard enough game to get into as it is and here you are making it more difficult CCP.

I am not a politician. I am not here to kiss anyones ass. If I run and I don't get re-elected so be it. I support measures , mchanics , changes that will make eve more exciting more dynamic more balanced and more deadly. Destruction is the lifeblood of Eve. Nearly every profession and activity in Eve is fueled by things exploding. More explosions means people in space doing things playing the game. More interaction which is the foundation of a MMORPG.


I'LL GIVE YOU DEATH AND YOU WILL LOVE ME FOR IT.

Making Eve more tedious to play is not a step in the right direction. There is a saying about throwing the baby out with the bathwater... That is what you have done here.

As someone who has been multiboxing for years, you have been making it harder and harder for me to justify keeping multiple accounts. I know some will cheer for this, since they think multiboxing is cancer for Eve, but the reality is that it is Eve's life support. As it currently stands, let's say I am moving three battleships and a scout through 0.0. I move the scout as plus 1. The other three get squad warped from gate to a bookmark ping. I don't warp gate-to-gate because a lot can happen when you warp slowly across a 50 AU system, so gate-to-gate warping is not an option. So, now, to move, instead of squad warping my alts, I have to manually warp each one to a saved bookmark - or have another alt waiting on each out gate ping so I can warp to him. You are just making a slow and tedious game more tedious.

Not to mention that it will make being an FC even less fun and more tedious. Way to get rid of content creators and leaders...

I have already cut from seven accounts to six. Cutting from six to two would be easier on my wallet and less tedious. The only thing that has kept me from that is that I have eight years invested in my team and I'm pretty attached to them. It might be easier to just move on altogether.

I don't know what your actual goal is with this game. It seems to me that announcing WHY is a good idea.

PS - no, you cannot have my stuff. And I am sure my tears are delicious.

Well all I can think of is angry stressed FC's going off on comms during an op. When the fleet arrives sporadically, people haven't warped. Losses flow in and the guys handling SRP tears the balls off the FC.

People who get into that state aren't going to want to FC for long. People in fleets with FC's yelling at them won't want to be in fleet.

I resubbed my EVE account mainly for fleet roams. And now I'm thinking its not going to be fun to go on fleet roams... and maybe if that happens... I will unsub again.

There's a word in FC, starts with a 'C'. And it happens to deal A LOT with delegation and control, not 'micromanagement'.

have fun when major FCs quit because the dont want to juggle more accounts than they already do

or when aspiring FCs don't want to try because they aren't space rich to own multiple accounts

good **** dude
