I was just wondering if anyone else has noticed a difference in CONCORD lately.

Or is it just me?

Just curious....

I've noticed they have been orbiting around the poles of stations and gates rather than the equator...

If your fighting fair you have automatically put yourself at a disadvantage.

CCP wouldn't buff Concord without telling us first, right?
They'd never do that.

cough *ninja-Orca nerf* cough

Still, while a slightly faster response would bone a solo T2 Catalyst, it would do nothing to stop a Tornado rampage, which kills instantly. Still haven't gotten my 6 for 1 yet, but haven't been able to play much recently....

Throw enough donuts at any cop, and you'll have your answer. Cool

Seriously, who knows. Maybe CCP decided the Po-Po needed looking at.

It seems that if you break the law while already a criminal, concord shows up nearly immediately. Instead of waiting 20-30 seconds.

It seems maybe the change the rules on us...

Seeing as a few months ago i've watched Global Criminals warp in in BS's, gank a ship, then warp off before concord showed up, something seemed a bit amiss about that...so maybe this fixes that little glitch?

That's faction police.

Faction police will also magically enter your pos shield and blow your stuff up in your pos if your standing is less than 5 which was traumatic for me the first time I encountered it.

I got a refund though so up.

Faction police need serious nefing against -5 and below. It's a joke. They insta spawn in dead space warp through posses shoot POS while inside shields.

I usually don't favor nerfing, but buffing the others. So why not give everyone the ability to freely enter deadspace, warp through poses, and target inside pos shields.

Hasn't happened to me. My pod-killer alt did quite a lot of damage a few days ago in a 0.6 and concord took its sweet time every time.

My guess is people experiencing instant Concord arrival are failing to follow proper ganking procedures of making sure Concord has ALREADY SPAWNED and is SOMEWHERE ELSE in the system.....

I seem to recall the Goons posting a fairly extensive guide to ganking not so terribly long ago.....

I don't log in - I don't need to. My very existence griefs people. They see my name, and they instinctively fill with rage and indignation. Deny it all you want - but if you didn't care, you wouldn't have posted, would you?

Were you already GCC?

Yes, we re-wrote and improved it. http://vimeo.com/34717241

Let me be specific:

I figured out that you can despawn concord by boarding a ship in space that is some distance from the ice belt, AS LONG AS YOU ARE ALREADY GCC.

Because of this, you can chain gank mackinaws without needing to dock-up as the goon guide suggested.
Notice how many kills are only 2-3 minutes apart.


Now, it seems (so far, still doing more testing), that if you are already GCC, concord will show up within seconds.

I'm just trying to confirm if anyone else has noticed this change in behavior. Hulkageddon starts soon, and if I need to change strategies I need to do that soon.

No it isn't. It's concord. I'm not just -5, I'm also GCC when ganking.

In this situation, concord is showing up and destoying my ship before the Navy arrives (in fact concord is so switf, the navy doesn't even show up).

No. You CAN escape from concord, as long you align then immediately warp out (and even dock), especially any aggression in high sec. BUT doing so is an exploit. When you do the crime, you HAVE to lose your ship. If you see someone doing that, petition it.

Come to think of it, when I did pop that Ice Botter a few nights ago in a .5 system, CONCORD did indeed show up rather rapidly than expected. Less than 10 seconds IIRC, but didn't think about it at the time..........

And I wasn't flagged anything. Hmmmmmm,

The station denies you docking access due to your recent hostile activities.Unless your warpin around a few minutes your not warping and dockin right after a gank.Ever.
