Relax and just cancel the contacts.

Don't look at me; I was also dumbfounded when I discovered how utterly hopeless player psychology becomes under the eco yoke. There is hope, Slim. The day they reboot Legends or anything to the same effect you're rid of annoying little me forever.

Sure, but then the stars align and two unicorns happen to be there at the same time on the same day. I don't care if I'm in a cerb finding you sitting in your trinco, a fight will happen that day.

Could be a good idea, but could also be worse. The running of the gauntlet going in and out is one thing. But one of these days the sharks circling Gringo will get curious and go in to fight. In a seperate zone you will never get that... synergy effect

Exactly as expected for me. Duel pvp in a full loot loss with eco grind punishment world is going to be the niche of niches. Heh, I'm going to sit in duel zone and stare out of the circle with moral condemnation too when I get time Perhaps duel zone in OW is a "fake feature"? But please don't decide yet. There aren't many of us but we do exist. The wee circle doesn't harm anyone, does it?

Shhhhhh! I'm low-key trying to suppress that very voice inside my own head.

Role-play all you like, but don't delude yourself into thinking it actually matters. Well, ok, maybe it can matter sometimes when a victim gives up on trying to make it here. One less enemy is very war-game like, right?

Sounds like instant karma to me...

I'm quite indifferent to the whole "broken promise" drama. We knew this would end up in a total wipe. Then some of us begged and batted our eyelashes to get to keep the xp (yup, I'm weak) and admin said we could keep it since we're so adorable. Then they realized the risk, slammed the brakes, and we're back to where we started on the question of wipes. I don't disagree with you, @Wraith. I also appreciate that they had to make a choice between bad and worse, or "choose the lesser of two weevils" as we're obligated to say around here. I can't say I know which weevil is the optimal choice at this point.

Don't worry about them, they know old hands will beat them. I feel the pain of the upcoming wipe in the stomach of my stomach, but I realize non-wipe release could unleash a torrent of autistic screeching and end up a PR (internet) nightmare.

Yes

I've been intensely occupied with this question or problem almost since the release of OW. From reading posters opinions it seems to me that chasing gear carrots is a thing, some call it a reason to play or grind, some call it content, some seem to hate the idea of (skill based) "cookie cutter" ships and place enormous value on the ability to "customize" ships. I use quotation marks because that word makes it sound almost harmless. For a game with NA's core combat to be so gear based isn't sexy at all. It breaks my heart.

I've never really looked at that, sorry.

I've gone deeper than that, slim, do you dare to look? Also, I've seen this comment about EVE: "If you're playing on one account; You're doing it wrong."

You have to dig deeper; Why are alts useful?

Off-topic but where else should I post this little funnie? I guess you outlanders haven't seen this little gem from a Norwegian sports show.

I feel for you, I have no bright ideas. "How to make a system that motivates people to fight on top of a system that is built around discouraging people from risking anything?" You know what I want...

And here I am; struggling to maintain 10k dubs for a rainy day... I'm blown away, I don't even have a point to make.

I thought expensive big ships was working exactly as intended?

Site updated. Constitution Classic > Constitution Constitution > United States Rättvisan added with generic profile. Possible speedchanges but switches and additions requires I check manually and I'm lazy.

Safe for the first wipe.

I would whine about wipe and rewards too... if I didn't have self-respect.

I remember starting to grind the little ships in Sea Trials, I particularly remember the first time there was a Snow on the other team; Such a large and seemingly invincible ship that was! o.O I got to grind my Brig by shooting at an unmanned santi, the owner didn't like storm battles so he simply said: "Here, shoot at this" and left the game. Then, at the end of my first hour someone typed in chat: "Duel, anyone?" Then followed a period of intensive, concentrated, difficult and fun PvP training in rooms or in randoms. Then came OW... I've had good moments in OW, even some fantastic experiences, but if I were to draw a pie chart with three sectors: fun, frustration and boredom, well... <Raises glass> Here's to the hope the duel PZ brings! Here's to the dim but everlasting light of hope NA: Legends shines within my heart!

Ye, the absolute longest I've sailed is 90k

Try to open the next one sitting in port, maybe you'll get more sensible distances?
