What is the point?

[Skully]

Solos getting hit by tp-ers is a symptom of low population. With high population they get equally hit, but by different players. 

Bringing in any cool down would only bring frustration to a lot of folks and a false sense of security to the ones getting ganked.

Revenge Fleets are a primary source of PVP. They are easily disposed of because of the risk they create to themselves by setting up to stop someone in the instance. We trap and kill revenge fleets all the time. They are super easy to split as well because they are all spread out. All of the most fun fights I have had killing a larger fleet with a smaller one always derived around revenge fleets. Revenge fleets are a tactic not a design flaw. You just need to use your imagination to come up with a counter tactic. It isn't that difficult. 

 

They are created because of voice com's which are NEVER going away. It is a waste of time to try and combat this. The players can easily deal with this issue and as of right now it provides the most ow PVP over any other method. 

15 v 1 is not PvP.. it is seal clubbing... You should NOT need to have 10-20 friends online to have fun playing a game.....

So you want to be able to kill members of a nation with complete impunity? I guess the world only revolves around you.

You don't need 10 to 20 friends to have fun playing this game but if you ARE going to play in a nation v. nation game try actually being part of the nation. Eventually you are going to need a gang in this game.

NO but if you jump someone 1v1 10 min sail from any normal base.. you should NOT have to worry about there being 20 guys outside when you spawn out.... You re right part of it is the Voice COmms.. but also the fact that you travel what? 20 times faster in OW then in Battle? So people can come to help from unreasonable distances away.... How If I jump someone in and around the Capital Zone I deserve every bad thing that happens latter,, But you hit someone  in a region that isn't even their home their countries it is a bit much.  Every change they have mad eteh last year has made it EASIER for the Revenge fleets... Shorter Invis auto kick to OW after battle. Speed cap combined with over powered Speed modules and skill stacking.. So ships that never in history went 15 knots now ALL do..

Bwahahahahahaha....   Nation v. Nation?!?!?!?  There's been maybe FOUR real PB's since the last patch....  the problem is this game is neither RvR NOR PvP at the moment....  Saying you NEED at least 8-10 friends online at any time for effectively fun PvP pretty much admits that its broken at the moment....

Cue the "get gud" and "sail a Lynx" comments in 3......  2.......1......   

There's plenty of fixes...  curious to see if they implement any of them or if stubborness prevails.

Any RvR game is a fail if you don't have to worry about getting jumped by 20 guys when you kill a member of a nation. If you aren't worried then you must be fighting a nation that doesn't have anyone in it.

There is your problem right there. Some how you think RvR means only port battles. It doesn't.

There's your problem right there.  Some how you think this game means only RvR...  Its been the biggest cancer of this game since the OW...  RvR should be a RESULT of PvP, not vice versa....

Yea, I sort of caught on when I saw they created 8 nations. However since the clues are lost on you let me give you a few hints.

Just incase you haven't noticed there are different flags on the back of every ship that determines for most who they can kill and who you can't. Their are little colored dots on the map that determine nation control of ports, look at the port you are in and see what color it is, that is probably the nation you are on.  There are different names for each nation just incase you were wondering what "France" means when you click on a PC. Finally their are 3 chat options, one for Clan (We will save this for a later lesson until you grasp what a nation is), one for Global (so you can talk to everyone in the game) and finally there is one for NATION. That is so you can have a conversation with your NATION. 

I know these clues are confusing for players who thought the world was just built for them and them only, the clues are rather ambiguous.
