Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Basically if someone is shooting your titan / super / noobship / whatever, you can't start up the self destruct.

If you really really want to get in your pod you can still eject. I am willing to miss out on a kill mail in exchange for a free titan.

I have seen somewhere that CCP wants to implement sending killmails even when target selfdestruct, soo this isnt needed.

Stop trying to have things nerfed or changed because they don't automatically favour you.

Ive partook in the argument to increase sd according to ship size. but i have to say no to this. it doesnt make sense at all. the idea of sd only ever works if you are being attacked. sitting around in your ship bored and decide you dont like it anymore so you destroy it?

just join the threads about increasing self destruct timers.
heres one for example. there are many more

there was another thread talking about using warp disrupter to cancel out disrupts. maybe we could create a module that interupted the SD'ing process (or mabye just delayed it)

A CCP dev said that about a year ago, on an issue that was raised by the CSM three years ago.

Having an 8:1 vote in favor of SD mechanics for capital class ships being changed in December 2009, only to see no change or response from CCP by February 2012, just goes to show how utterly pointless that CSM rubbish really is.


Aren't you the guy that wanted anti-warp modules that let you get out of bubbles, and escape from gangs even with multiple people pointing you? And didn't you start threads saying industrial ships should be on a level with PvP ships in terms of combat/tanking capabilities?

Hypocrite much?

For those interested:

All hail our CSM Overlords! Bow before their all mighty wisdom reflecting a minority of opinion and bring a tithe within a fortnight to please them!

*seconds pass in quiet, followed by the sound of a record scratch*

Oh wait....they don't represent the majority. And SD again does not affect game play it affects player ego/satisfaction of winning, but winning isn't a factor of gameplay. So long as something like Highsec ganking of hulks lets you boost your ego while the miner is left as the looser, then self destruction is fine right now (insurance loss doesn't stop them, yet these guys can still destroy a ship in less then 30 seconds but you can't plan to destroy a ship under 2 minutes...both have a deadline: 30 seconds from CONCORDOKEN and 120 seconds to go POOF! Why is one a massive fail effort but the other is a massive win?). You don't bring enough resources by planning smartly to down something in 2 minutes, you ****** up and lost....so much as the miner has to be smart on how avoid getting ganked by watching local and Dscan...then you should smarter to bring more friends or have a cap ship on standby. Miner lacks the foresight and goes AFK....pirate attacking a cap ship lacks the foresight to have more then enough damage....same thing happens and both ending up the loser. Want to fix self destruction, might as well let the miner have AFK safemode...see where I am going at: You are responsible for winning by doing what ever is necessary to destroy that ship in half the time of self destruct and whining to CCP to fix one problem might as well let someone else get the same benifit (and I know, nobody wants to let miners be immune to attack. Hulks just die, thats all they are good for and its why the are targeted so much).

Which is the very reason i think you should still get a KM if you have combat aggression on the SDer. Hes not SDing for the hell of it, someone is forcing him to. It still surprises me how quickly capital pilots will fight this fact. I think its a funny state of denial.

No.

And sending kill mails for something you didn't kill is stupid.

Another topic filled with no.

Burn it with fire.

It's OK, you're not making any valid points on this topic either so lets just go with 'no, working as intended' anyway.
