Divine Blob posted:so black ops is just cloak-y ships an all that jazz, which i assume is what happens in wormhole space too? Black ops can dovetail into wormhole fuckery quite nicely, as you can use k space exits to get into areas within jump range of ratters without being called out in intel channels, but you do run into the issue of mass limitations on your fleet.

sorry about my stream of awful questions, but i do enjoy learning about the game. do people actually die to hotdrops a lot? i mean in my previous corp that had me mining, id dip anytime a neut came into local. then again we didnt have much activity outside of like 10 people in local and is it mainly targetting ratters and such?

Divine Blob posted:sorry about my stream of awful questions, but i do enjoy learning about the game. Don't apologize. It's better to ask than not ask and die in a horrible explosion. Again, the answer is kind of. Some people just don't pay attention, or they're AFK ratters and aren't glued to local/intel channels. In my experience hotdrops are typically aimed at targets of opportunity, which more often than not are ratters and people just doing stupid poo poo.

Zephyrine posted:But now we're one step closer. We're not supposed to think about what goes on in the kitchen. Just one wall left before we have to eat with a blindfold. This is backwards. Sous vide is basically min/maxing meat cooking. It is actually more effort than just roasting or pan-frying something, for a better result. You don't "boil" the meat, you cook it to a precise temperature and manage the exact time/temp to balance taste, texture, and safety. You then still have to finish the meat on high heat (fire, skills, etc) unless you are making cold chicken for salads or something. Do you also hate slow cookers?

p7hk9 posted:I've been hanging out with Black Ops a lot since we lost our space, and I haven't seen anything that rises to the level of the concern posting here. There is no space drill instructor screaming at you for warping at range instead of at 0. The worst thing I have been present for is a terse "Why the gently caress would you do that?!" followed by people offering legitimate suggestions on how best to avoid that particular mistake in the future. Concern posting? Nice meltdown. I don't give a rats rear end whether you flay your people alive while they weep. Bonus room them, plungers on heads, whatever. My point was that if they volunteered for it, they are good to go. They can walk away from it whenever they like, which is what you said and what I said, too. Maybe you quoted the wrong person. This is what I was responding to: quote:We will critique, shame, and expel/abort people who die horribly in poorly fit ships. Do not waste our time by applying if you cannot handle criticism or refuse to improve. To which I said: Dr. Pangloss posted:Given that inclusion in the group, like inclusion in all groups in Eve, is voluntary, I'm struggling to see the issue.

Except instead of pulling on the rod, and reeling in, you're latching on with something and bringing in all your friends to beat the poo poo out of some unsuspecting idiot.

I think the biggest hurdle for being a blops hunter is getting Cyno V as that is what you need to be able to use a covert cyno.

Divine Blob posted:im a pleb so it would probably be easier being the scout than the hunter though right? (by easier i mean less time to train) A lit cyno on a celestial (not a station) is a pretty good trap. You can just light the drat thing, and wait for someone to come in and kill you. Blops can back-n-forth between 2 or 3 of these at their leisure for easy kills.

10k SP dailies are on the way out. CCP stated that they generated content in the form of kills and activity, but only amongst those logging in. Those who didn't log in normally weren't logging in for their 10k. Aka our customers who already log in daily don't deserve poo poo, our metrics aren't up.
