Life isn't fair.

If it was fair, everyone would be allowed to delete your fail threads as soon as you post them.

If it was fair, you would have full cap after jump in.

I move for vote: Upon jumping into a system, capacitor remains empty to maintain cloak. Capacitor does not begin to recharge until cloak is dropped. Also, jumping enervates your engines, causing you to already be self-tackled at .75x normal velocity.

After all, life is not fair. If you're jumping through a gate by yourself, that's your bad luck for not having friends who like you enough to tag along.

If I was a game master I would implement this.

On the flip side I think every jump should cause temporary blindness to all nearby pilots, making targeting impossible for several seconds. You know, just long enough for me to get this brand new battleship that I haven't quite finished fitting yet aligned to a celestial.... I'm on my way to pick up the launchers and I totally forgot to insure this before I left station Straight

So close...

Are these the complaints people are dishing out now.

"I can't WIN, FIX IT"

Not a frequent in this part of the EVE forum world but could not help notice the total amount of drivel people complain about these days.

From "Give me a PVP OP-OUT button" to "Help me KILL THINGS"

I started a year and a half ago, and in that short time period noticed a severe increase from, if your not prepared for EVE it puts you on your knees and Double TAPS you in the back of the head at Point blanks range, to now slowly changing into WoW 2.0.

Hell with the new changes coming I actually might need to start doing.... "shivers" PVE just to afford decalring war on people.

Strange new world is coming for EVE.

Or how about this, Buff gate guns as gates were never intended to be able to be perma-camped like they can be now. Ships got better year after year but gate guns remain the same.....


Just saying how about gate guns go back as intended....

I say make them godlike on the Hi to Low transits like in High Sec.

If it becomes harder to camp the direct entrances and makes blockades have to setup in one of the 2-5 other gates it decreases people getting ***** slapped their first step in and lessens the flow of newbie mails. Camping becomes a bit less viable it might make a few campers turn to roaming. It also makes it hard for people who purposely keep there sec positive to jump away if a superior force comes to remove them. Makes them jump into another low sec system.

Help some players take the plunge into lo-sec as well.

They should have it so that if the combined DPS of the ships at the gate camp exceed the tank of the ship coming in, then the ship coming in should instantly explode on arrival and a RL picture of the pilot should appear on a killboard with lots of automated smack talk added in.


Because.

I think ponies should spawn everywhere and kick the living bejeezus out of everybody near the gate whenever a ship jumps through.

Hundreds and thousands of mad ponies, all out for blood.

WoW holds your hand until end game, and gives you a cookie whether you win or lose. EVE not only takes your cookie, but laughs at you for bringing one in the first place...

This would be an acceptable compromise.
