Anyone who thinks Awoxing is something that should be a part of EVE is what's wrong with this game. Honestly.

People join a corp to group together. It makes absolutely no sense for CONCORD to go 'congratulations, you are now in a player owned corporation! We will kill anyone who harms you without authorisation, except your corp mates.'

It's a stupid relic from the dark ages of EVE and it's good that it's going away. You want PVP? You work for it. Even ganking involved more effort than joining a corp, shooting everything and never docking Roll


Considering axowing has been in the game since day 1 how has Eve survived so long with it in?


Just because the game survived doesn't mean the mechanic isn't stupid. EVE survived the past two itterations of the sov mechanics and those were as stupid as they came.

Most Awoxing happens in null/low sec and that isnt going away.

I think this change is bad. I used to implore this tactic a lot:

- Scan bling bling ships at missionhubs
- Join said corp and be a helpfull hand (aka Salvager)
- Partake in joint missions for a time
- Kill bling bling ship during mission and profit

It was a very profitable business and required some planning and perfect execution. its a sad day to see this mechanic gone.

Love me... Hate me...

...as long as you pay me

That's dangerous space by design, so that makes sense. What doesn't make sense is that you can shoot your own corp mates with 10 Concord ships watching in high security space. High security should be high security for everyone.

CCP says its cuz players hide in ncp corps[ie their stats on player retention for npc corps == ccps money lost] to avoid safaris.

No ccp its cuz of wardecs. Thats why in npc corps.

So remove wardecs!!

Make ALL weapons deactivate in Highsec...

Then allow for windows in ships and the ability for us to stick our heads out of the windows so we can stick out our tongues and go "Nyah nyah" at each other....

This whole thread smells of an AFK Cloaking complaint...

I called it a long time ago.

If you cannot aggress alliance mates why should shooting at corp mates be any different.

For the most part people don't want to join corps because they are afriad they might loose their blingy ship to a member. Now people can join corps and work together which leaves more war targets for me.

When I am back from all my traveling that is.

Is safaris really why players stay in NPC corps?? Ccp says so, i think its wardecs.. afraid what will happen to my wara when they figure that out.

So is it really safari_quarentine??

AWOXing is a good way to get revenge or say "F you for leaving me to die in that bubble last night".

BUT....


When you have a sandbox and some of the kids make it more about bonking other kids with the pail and shovel instead of sand, "mommy" has to intervene and make rules.


For some, AWOXing (read: making their game the prevention of playing the game) is their game and it appears that this is being addressed.


So any removal of AWOXing or such matter is going to be a situation brought on by certain players. I've been warning people for years about this.

We'll have none of that actually wanting PVP stuff here. Go back to Eve... oh wait.

Bring back DEEEEP Space!

And? Non consensual PvP either exists, or it doesn't.

If it stops being a thing, they have taken a step towards Trammel that they can't undo. If you recall, historically that signals the death of a game.

A rant is a post that is often filled with angry and counterproductive comments. A free exchange of ideas is essential to building a strong sense of community and is helpful in development of the game and community. Rants are disruptive, and incite flaming and trolling. Please post your thoughts in a concise and clear manner while avoiding going off on rambling tangents.

There is already a feedback thread for the CSM minutes; it has been linked in the second post. Please use that instead of creating a rant thread. Thank you.
