CCP, jump clone cooldown is so 80s...

The problem:
My chars idle in the staging system waiting for a fleet ping. In calm times there are sometimes no fleets for several days. But I don't want to clone back (for carebearing or other stuff) because there might occure a good fight. So I don't log in for days start playing other games, loosing interest in EVE and if you start loosing interest it's hard to gain it again.

The solution:
If I would have the possibility to jump arround as I wish, I could spend my time in EVE much more better, having more fun, wouldn't start play other games.
Just remove this stupid cooldown and remove the corresponding skills, or at least bring the cooldown to 0 (zero) minutes if the corresponding skills are maxed to 5.

The conclusion:
CCP you are always talking about making the game more attractive and easier for the new players. But please, also take the veteranes into account. They start moving away from EVE, so make their gameplay more attractive and flexibel.

Thanks!

Sounds like the problem is more that you're always waiting for a fleet ping. Maybe a change of locale is in order rather than a change in game mechanics?

Oh come on. This embarrassingly bad, even for GD.

OP, we are trying to have a party here . . . a party for a man, no--more than a man--a vice-admiral, whose only purpose in life is to close this thread down. Not the party he deserves, but the party he needs.

Don't do this.

Is that what the kids are doing now days? Snorting something that rhymes with caulk?

Explains a lot.

It also rhymes with bork, like when you bork a jumpclone cuz you forgot to take cooldown timers into consideration.

Guys, jump clone cool down timers are so 80's.




We need to replace them with 1ups, turtles, walking mushrooms, 8bit pipes that lead to other 8bit pipes, bricks that you break with your head, overalls, mustaches, flowers that let you throw fireballs, coins, flagpoles, angry spiked turtle/dragon hybrids who steal princesses, bullets with faces, spiked balls on chains that defy gravity and are placed close to other gravity defying spiked balls on chains in narrow passageways, and mushrooms that make you bigger until you touch something with anything other than your feet.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

But Eve could be the game that does overalls right.

CCP, please increase jump clone "cooldown" to 48 hours.

That moment when you realize the crazy lady with all the cats was right...

I agree. The jump clone cooldown isn't long enough.
It encourages people with short attention spans.

Paradise is like where you are right now, only much, much better.

If you're waiting for a fleet ping in School of Applied Knowledge corp chat then I think I've located your first problem.

More attractive? Sure

Easier?

No thanks. You make a choice, live with it.
