So, with this whole warp and jump feature I was jsut wondering why CCP didnt imoplament the same whilst on autopilot.

I know people will moan and say afk travelings baaaaaad, and that it reduces the change to gank someone, but anyone carrying anything worthwhile surely wouldnt be afk anyway.

The whole warp to 0 and jump button just endorces Macros or bots in my opinion, and being one not to break the EULA I would never do this, hense this thread.

Do you think autopilot should be changed so that it warps to 0 or not?

Maybe we could also have a 'run mission' button in the agent window, that allows your toon to complete a mission whilst AFK.

I am me.         I am not you.     I have my own thoughts.     I am very happy with this situation.

ahahahahahahahaha no.

Cyno's lit, bridge is up, but one pilot won't be jumping home.

I seriously don't see why not but as the majority of community will say, no =p

I just assume it has something to do with there being some downside to being AFK.

As someone who travels several jumps regularly, I still say no.

Because it makes the game less 'real'. Pick any mmo, do you want an auto run feature to get you everywhere? Why have travel at all then? Just make everyone able to insta-jump to any system or location. I mean, it makes my life so much easier after all.

It wouldnt be instant tho, and for real........... we are flying spaceships shooting other spaceships...... in space.... which for some reason has submarine physics - always baffled me that one. But yeah it wouldnt take away from travel times at all, would just mean, instead of mindlessly clicking a button i could make a coffee, or even do some chores. The only issues i could see would be traders getting it alot easier, but as far as i can tell trading isnt that lucrative and a little buff there couldnt hurt

You mean have a passive way to run missions so that I can just pvp every time I play Eve?

I support this.

There's a fine line between something that is a convenience and being flat out lazy. Warping to and jumping automatically is a convenience. Autopilot with a jump to 0 is lazy.

Maybe just a "give ISK" button?

I would have agreed to an autopilot buff to 10km or 5km from the gate up till Crucible, but with the massive reduction in the hassle of "manual" travel I don't really think its needed anymore.

Hey mate

Dont listen to most of these tards. The reason that they dont want it is because they had to do it the hard way and its unfair on them if you dont have to.


There is this overwhelming belief by CCP that there own game is a piece of ****.

They wont do unlimited skill queue because they think that if people dont have to log in they will never log in ever again

They dont want warp to zero as this way you dont actually have to be a your computer and you might forget why you ever played this game.


Think about how many people would quit if there was no 24 hour skill queue and think about how many more people would subscribe if there was an unlimited skill queue.

EDIT warping to zero does nothing to stop you being ganked. The most danger you are in is when you come of a gate not when you warp to it. But none of these highsec Bears no that


mature player base for eve is one of the funniest thing ive ever heard. 
I dont normally troll, but when i do i do it on General Discussion.
