Warfare & Tactics

Against your corp and 50 russians ? ofc they didn't it was out of their tz and they were outnumbered. But don't let that fool you, SLAPD are miles ahead of most of your guys, and in even combat will wipe the floor with you. Also, ffs, stop fitting cloaks on corp scimitars, each time I fly one with my spy alt it drives me mad.

Wait you mean I shouldn't be fitting cloaks on my Scimitars?

Yah know that that story is all about DUST dont you and has nothing to do with spaceships?

Station lockouts happened. They suck if you don't ever want to do FW but are in militia anyway. Don't like it? Leave.


If I were at war with you, guess what you're not doing? Docking in my stations. Get over it. It's more realistic that way. Now you have to have logistics, or some form of intelligence and sense to commit to a fight instead of just chicken crapping it. If you're the winner and you're battered, welcome to the real world, limp back home from a gud fite, maybe have another in which you win half beaten.

If nothing ever changed, FW would be meaningless, we'd have no T3 or capitals, but at least some people wouldn't complain about a game evolving. I want EVE to still be alive and kicking 10 years from now. Guess what it takes to do that?

Freaking change.


EDIT: Post fueled by the fact that all day I've had douchers whine about business policies that I have no control over. Then I have employees whine about policies that I make because old policies don't work and I bleed money like a siv. That's real life money in a real life business. Then I see the same darn thing in a *game*. CLEARLY we don't want EVE to advance and last forever. We just want original release graphics and UI. And the bugs that came with it. Just because it's "original"

All I want to know is what happened to the old hidden snake of like 2 years ago...this one should not be allowed to post anymore

HS, I was one of the guys predicting doom and gloom when this expansion came out. I would have quit eve if my subscription didn't still have 6 months on it. I even had my alt unsubscribed for a few weeks. But you know what? This is literally the best expansion I can remember.

I didn't think anyone would put LP into systems, but I was wrong: upgrading a system one level has the same effect as fully flipping a system. And more importantly, you can take that LP away pretty easily too.

This means that the enemy actually fights over plexes in upgraded systems! Go find an upgraded system where the enemy bases, and start plexing it (assuming you go there during their timezone) and you'll get fights. I can go to Eha, or Okkamon and get a fight within 10 minutes, *because of the new plexing mechanic where I can downgrade systems in short order if the enemy doesn't chase me out*.

And you know what? While the Gallente can focus and take any single system they want, IMO we're going to lose the aggregate plexing war because most of the gal mil isn't as happy plexing as the caldari are, and in fact our shared comms where we all converge for a fight actually isn't that effective for plexing where it's better to just warp off when opposition comes in if your only goal is system occupancy.

So, if you come back to FW, you'll probably end up with a great LP store long run. No, you won't get Rakapas back unless SLAPD move. You'll probably be able to dock in most places, and you know what, Station lock outs really give a feeling of RP to this whole plexing war, like someone who is in enemy territory. And I say this as someone who spends most of his time offensive plexing where I can't dock.

Finally, I see lots of caldari complain about SOTF dropping caps on everything and not being able to compete with all their RR etc. You know what? They can't make you commit caps or guardians to a fight, but you can make them leave their comfort zone and fight in minor and medium plexes (no caps or guardians allowed). That's why this expansion is awesome, because it's forcing people to fly destroyers again.

I jump freightered 60 fully fit destroyers in yesterday, and corp is eating them up (as well as my own derpy/suicidal charges :D ). At this rate, I'll probably bring another load in next week.

Right now, I far prefer to fight in minor plexes. I'll grudgingly ship up if need be, but dessies are the way.

This is like the drakes. Don't use them effectively and then expect me not to copy you :) (and/or slightly improve on the concept :P )

PS: It hurts when someone catches you on a plex warpin in one of those: http://eve.battleclinic.com/killboard/killmail.php?id=16565919 Maybe this is just a plot for you to trick me into flying a ship that gets me owned in a ball of fire :)

Yes correct,

I have come to terms that we will blue ball ******** fits like Nexx's cormy from now on.

Best way to pawn a kiter - blue ball him

Stop saying pawn! I was going to assume you just misstyped and ignore you but you did it twice in a row in seperate posts. It's not the word you think it is.
