Yeah Oreb, you're probably right.

Also, as I said earlier, Nameira's also probably right about all the ways to exploit/cheat this making it unworkable.

Funny, your character hasn't been played more than 5 years. If this is an alt, what's you'r main?

The entire game is an indulgence. All games are.

Solo PvP helping the fac war a horrible prospect? You still haven't come up with a real reason how.

A horrible mechanic? Going after someone after their fight is finished? People do it all the time to try to nail someone when they are damaged and weakened.

If this is a pathetic idea, why are so threatened by it? You've certainly wasted plenty of time writing about it. If it's that pathetic, why even comment at all? Or do you enjoy wasting time on the forums more than flying?

You haven't proven your case, particularly how this would be a detriment to others. All you've done is thrown some personal insults and try to belittle the proposal by insulting the presenter. Proving you are a troll in need of feeding. Well, now you've been fed, so please feel free to vent your spleen.

By the way, you don't like whining, you probably shouldn't read forums...


Im not threatened by this proposal. Im just saying its fixing a problem that doesnt exist. There are already various mechanics out there including the current plexes that allow people to engineer solo fights.

Go out there and get your solo pvp. But dont expect others to adhere to your choices, and certainly dont force them to Dont expect your choice to fly solo to impact someone elses home system beyond your capability to fight there.

The fact that you want to seek solo pvp is fine, the fact you want a specific plex seems a little unnecessary, the fact you want these plexes to effect occupancy highlights a misplaced entitlement you seem to have.

I'm a facwar pilot who likes to fly solo. I've tried fleets, not my thing. Yes, I get ganked all the time, we all know it's the nature of the beast. However, I would love for the CCP to try experimenting with a combat plex for solo pilots. The plex gates are programmed to keep out anything larger than the size class they are made for, why not have one plex per system that will only let in one ship per faction in at a time? Neutrals (pirates) can still gank people going at the gates, it won't spoil their fun - but it will give us solo pilots a better chance to have some 1 on 1 fights.

Someone could just make alts in the other factions so nobody could get in to attack or defend the plex.

Also, it's worth noting that this would have an effect on other FW pilots who don't want to use them. The mechanic for respawning plexes would either have to ignore them or incorporate them- If you ignore them, then you have double (or whatever proportion) the plexes in a system, allowing it to swap hands that much faster. If you incorporate them into the current mechanic, that's plexes that could be novice/small/medium/large regulars being these solo only plexes.

The more you dilute the number of plexes that can possibly spawn, the harder it is to properly dictate fight size, which isn't a good or bad thing necessarily, it's just a thing that has an effect on everyone involved, and trying to say that it doesn't is untrue.

Eve is already being ruined by CCP listening to people expecting 1v1s/solo play in an MMO.
