the mechanic as it currently stands is not broken, it actually promoted teamplay. but it seems fozzie wants Eve Online to not be a massive multiplayer online game, but a massive alt-iboxer online game.

This seems like a completely ass backwards way of 'fixing' this. Roll



If Dictors got aggression from dropping bubbles, than they couldn't cover retreats through gates without dying.

I'm sorry bro, but it really looks like you are upset or at least tickled by those coming changes.

What's the matter?

explain to me plz how dropping a single bomb on the undock to clear a bubble for capitals to jump doesnt solve the issue of hobojamming without dev time and actually promotes teamplay, as opposed to this waste of dev-time?

Well you are passing each single day of your life desperately bubbling our station, you should know a lot about wasting time.

Dont be so rude with the devs.

I understand dropping a bubble and docking is unintended but why are you not addressing the problem and instead addressing the average 0.0 pilots way of fixing it for you?

So I guess you are making it so that the average 0.0 alliance can disable npc station services and not have to use dictors to slow them down?

This actually promotes more than just one person doing one thing to achieve the same goal. Though, maybe you're right. Maybe CCP Fozzie is just trying to ruin EVE and make it into an all isboxer game because he hates EVE so much. That's probably the answer.

Promoted team play?

Yeah solo invunerable dictors bubbling off the undock.

What immersive teamplay.

my time IS worthless and bubbling your station IS worthwhile for such a worthless person such as myself. however i regard Developers time as golddust and prefer to see it being used to advance this game in a worthwhile cause, not this pile of horse sh*t.

plus, its not 'your' station, its everyones station. You'd be wise to remember that.

Aggression from bubbles would significantly change other mechanics, including things around gates. This is legitimately cleanest fix that doesn't affect any other gameplay.


Being able to bubble then jump is kinda dumb. Doesn't really make sense that dictor bubble doesn't aggress but hictor bubble does

You should have to use "Team Play" to camp an ALLIANCE in a station, not just 1 nerd running a macro. If you cannot do this, i suggest you "get more friends".

You have 36k people in the CFC. You have enough man/woman power to camp anyone in any station with a fleet and do other things. I am not sure why you are mad about these changes.

Not sure who crawled up CCP's ass and decided to screw with the Goons but well done Fozzie, that is probably one of the most idiotic waste of time CCP have made this year. So much broken with the game and you decide to waste code on hobo jamming. How soon before you leave for Riot?


Please show us on this doll of a hobo where CCP touched your bubble.

In general we like to have lots of good methods for disrupting larger groups, but this "undock-bubble-dock-repeat" mechanic doesn't provide enough risk to the dictor pilot to be properly balanced.


ok

Damn mate, you sure are buttmad. BTW, please explain to me how could I use your elite hobojamming tactics on your overlords stations while not being able to dock in them? Hmm...?
