Rutibex posted:If someone is probing you can see it on D-scan a long time before they find you. I haven't played for a few years, but this isn't how I'd go about finding someone while cloaky camping. You don't need probes to find someone who is ratting anomalies after a few days of afk camping. Dscan the krabbing smartbomb Abaddon pack and crawl on up. Probing is for finding someone's botting ratting carrier that warped to a safe.

Rutibex posted:I'm in Sansha space right now and absolutely no one bothers me, I can rat with impunity solo. Its actually safer than Delve because no one expects anyone to be here so no one targets the area with gangs. I can do this because I can operate out of the NPC Sansha stations. The blackout is not going to harm my gameplay even a little, in fact it will make me safer because no one will be able to notice what I'm doing. Welcome to lowsec without all the drama of having JF service into Stain

Is there a workaround to the issue of not being able to set your medical clone?

I enjoy hiding in the middle of nowhere and making all of my own stuff. It's like a survival game. I'm actually more interested in the loot they drop. If I wanted to make money I could just station trade implants in Jita

Rutibex posted:If someone is probing you can see it on D-scan a long time before they find you. Not really. With a competent prober you have a few seconds to see the probes before they’re pulled back off Dscan. Bads will let the probes linger, but it’s pretty common to narrow down your location by Dscan or a celestial, get you on the one pass, then send the probes back out to no mans land.

Just read about the no local change. I dont know if its good or bad for the game, but i predict that soon enough globy is gonna bitch about not being able to find anyone in null (outside of delve) and having to dscan each system to find that out.

That would require Globby to play somewhere outside of highsec.

Collateral Damage posted:Is there a workaround to the issue of not being able to set your medical clone? If you use the non-medical clone UI by: 1. Searching for the station you want to set your clone at (do this for player owned stations by searching the system, showing info, and then “stations”); 2. Right clicking and show info; 3. Somewhere on the info screen there is a “set medical clone to this station” button, I don’t remember where it is, but it’s there; You should be fine. I ended up having to use this method for all of my characters when I moved to delve for the same reason.

No local unless you poo poo up local is clearly an attack on goons. A goon who can't poo poo up local is no goon at all.

1001 Arabian dicks posted:i just ran for 6 hours and got 2 kills pre local nerf, so it's already poo poo That's what I'm saying. This patch won't make null any more full. But now instead of knowing right away if a system is empty allowing you to move on, you have to dscan. Unlike wormholes where the amount of connections is  limited , nullsec is vast and pretty empty hence this patch makes it harder for guys who try to hunt. Any good nullsec group will figure out a way to go around the no-local and the carebears are gonna dock up before you can really do anything. Maybe not at first until the system gets implemented but in time. I don't think no-local is the boon you think it is.

The fundamental problem at the moment is that nullsec is too big with too many resources. There's more than enough space, ore and rats for everyone, if they want people to fight then there needs to be less resources than the demand for it to give space empires motivation to fight. (see real world oil) To solve that they probably should slash the number of null sec systems by half for starters, but that would be providing tacit admission that the player base is shrinking and probably be hard to do in practise. What they seem to aim to be doing is to reduce the average resources available per system, to force space empires to expand in order to fill their current demand and so create conflict when empire borders start chaffing against one another. The removal of jump fatigue from jump bridges seems to support this because it makes it a little easier for people to live within a larger number of systems. This also serves to reduce the effectiveness of supercap umbrellas because it reduces the amount of wealth generation per month that the umbrella protects. If they could also increase the number of jump bridges per system then they could probably slash the average resources per system pretty hard to eventually force empires into resource wars as they have to expand to fill their demand.

These days with Alpha clones you can log into your old accounts and look around without spending a cent, though you won't be able to use most of your best poo poo without subscribing.

Unlike wormholes where the amount of connections is no local is better than anything we have currently, it actually makes the game interactable and there are things you can do to minimize and prevent your detection, which makes the system exist anomalies need a payout increase and titans and soups need to be relegated to 10/10 (sanctums) only or something to prevent everyone from just grinding in a titty

Isn't "no local" pretty much the standard in most MMOs anyway? I've only played 2 other MMOs but neither of them had a chat that would tell you some dude was within spitting distance. There may have been regional chat windows, but that would be like all of Delve having a shared chat instead of every system.
