If you like this proposal, please vote for it, clicking on the "thumbs up" icon, at the top right of this page or reply with the word “Supported”. Thank you.


As I would like to Improve FW and many good ideas come up in the Warfare & Tactics but don’t seem to make it over to this official forum as a “Proposal” I re-post the suggestions I like here for general support and official request.


Proposal: There should be consequences for warping out of a plex (avoiding PvP). This should affect the plex count down timer to reset to zero.

Reset, no. Auto-run, yes.

Reset would make defence way too easy even against plexers who wants to fight, just show an apparent blob on their scan and they'll bolt .. end result is gaming of mechanic with even less plex pew.

Auto-run on the other hand requires defenders to stay apprised of goings on, while still penalising the running farmers.

After having done way too many defensive plexes, I actually lean towards removing LP from defensive plexes and allowing an auto-run timer to close them.
Attacking a system should require commitment of more than farmers and the occasional counter-blob, space superiority ought to be needed ..

I think the consensus is that the timer should run back to "zero" if nobody is running the plex, not reset to 0.
