I've often wished CONCORD would go on strike.

The reality is though, it would be so unbalanced in favour of people like me, as well as gankers and anyone else that wanted to bring illegal aggression to highsec, that it would really be unfair to the bulk of the population that wouldn't be prepared for it and many probably wouldn't even know until it was too late.

If you log in without paying attention to dev announcements and a big popup window that has the concord logo and says We are on a break be back later (inference being downtime) and you un dock your you have no right to *****. just imagine the fun.


Its happened once from what ive been told let it happen again!

Come to Black Rise, we don't have any dirty CONCORD. Not since they opened a 24/7 donut shop in Jita.

The locals have been known to shoot back though...I hope that's not a problem?

Oh not a problem at all, same thing happens in delve and venal both places i lived but I do like the idea of highsec morons loging in not paying attention and then dying saying where is concord Twisted

And that right there says why CCP won't do it. Because you are wanting it just to pad your KB and laugh at people who aren't as 'hardcore' as you
As for weakening concord, search moo and their exploits and you will understand just why Concord is so OP as a game mechanic. Though it would be better replaced by an auto self destruct that can't be bypassed to stop all the whining about 'why doesn't concord shoot the pirates/drifters/sansha. (Note, I actually advocate increased concord response times, alongside industrials getting real fittings, so you have longer to gank someone but they can personally defend also as well as longer for others to intervene)

There are people in the world that think it's a good thing to go to the public swimming pool and stomp around in the wading pool with the four-year-olds, pausing only to hold the kids' heads under water now and then. Amazing, right?

At the same time, there are people who "play games" (according to them) who just can't stand any possible opponent being equal in ability and capacity. They wish others were at a decided disadvantage ensuring effortless wins for themselves!

I know. It's hard to believe, especially when they can be found later bragging to anyone who'll listen how good they are at games!

There are also people who pee on the toilet seat, then leave it for someone else to worry about. (These guys, oddly enough, can't manage to keep a girlfriend for very long. Maybe someone could write a doctoral thesis on this.)

However, THIS game (EVE Online) only has people who enjoy a fair and challenging opponent so their victories are all well-fought and well-earned. They don't seek unfair advantages as they take pride in their own record of accomplishment and wouldn't dream of it being smudged with easy, unfair, imbalanced so-called "wins."

Hard to believe, isn't it?

So background: the whole reason I started this thread was because our incursion was popped and I needed entertainment. Its fair to say the entire purpose of this thread was for some quick entertainment!


I want to thank Otso Bakarti because even if this thread was to be closed now his response made it totally worth it!.



Also thanks for the free plug to my friends post i'm sure it will bring more people to his thread, while writing I am on coms with him and he asked me to pass on his thanks!

Have you considered traveling to one of the many areas of space in which CONCORD is already absent?

For me Concord was never an issue in higsec operations.
Maybe lack of concord for few hours could be interesting feature to higsec people.

Well exactly I think the pandemonium of people flying around not noting would be funny, kind of like what happens with burn jita, everyone is given loads of warning most people pay no attention and then get but hurt when killed
