How to balance/remove/nerf Jump trading for real.

[nOmnomnOm]

Your naivety made me chuckle.

tell me now how this kind of attitude isn't the real cancer of disco.
I've seen it time and time again on forums. " im right and your stupid"

I said it my opinion. I have jump trades with friends too so I know what im talking about. I have pirated too. I know what im saying.

The way your arguing, lyth, will get you no where and your just making it worse. To one person at a time.

It makes me sad. Not chuckle.

And FYI its not always 15k off. Sometimes its way more. Try to intercept a jump ship. its something new. Instead of getting mad and yelling to have it removed.

It's sickening. I'm sure you can spot lots of other places where Jump trading is going on if you look for it, rather than coving your eyes with a blindfold.

you just proved my point.

Almost all of the "really cool ideas" implemented since 4.86 have been 'killers' of one or another kind of RP.
POBs, Jumpdrives, Cloaks, Docking modules, and so on.
I bet I can find a thread or two begging for the removal of every one.

Thing is, people, you have two choices; evolve or be left behind.
Either find new RP and show us how to do it right, or stamp your feet in frustration until someone else fixes it.
I can tell you which way I'd lean.

I wonder what is the real cancer of Disco.

Jumptrading or cargo piracy with unreasonable demands near the selling point?

Go figure.

[Vredes]

I remember when JDs had just been introduced, when we had ~10 Jorms to jump for the kill on the Corsair fleet, it was epic. Now it is just metagaming.

the evolution of space tech has killed disco? No... Its that people cant evolve as you said.
they are all good things. The cancer is all the posts that claim its all bad. Over and over. And new players see it.

Cancer is all those threads of disco dying. And new people dont want to play a dying game with people having negative attitudes.

It was only a statement to poke fun at how misinformed you've been. No need to get emotional.

You make it sound terribly easy. I'd really like to see evidence of you completing such a feat.

All of which, with the exception of docking modules, have notoriously brought mostly negative impacts to the server. Sure, they do have their good uses, but that doesn't justify their bad uses. Either nerf, balance, or remove.

Alright, give me suggestions, because I have been trying and have not found a solution other than suggesting mod changes.
Perhaps a CD that you can fire that tracks your prey all over Sirius and disrupts them whilst they're jumping?

Sticking your head in the sand and ignoring all the problems around you isn't going to solve or help anything.

Right so it's a statement to poke fun of how misinformed I am. So you like to poke fun and assume im misinformed about a certain issue that I was on both sides and that has been repeated over and over on the forums.


I make it sound simple. Its harder than normal pirating but that's cool. Its still possible anyway. If you can read you'll see in what you quoted that its doable . You even said its easy to spot.

Whining about the problem over and over and not giving a reasonable solution is just sickening. Why not respect the devs efforts to have more toys for is to play with.

Again, saying that I am dumb and stick my head in the sand is just the attitude that had been driving people away from here. Not so much the devs efforts to improve and devlope the game.

I would rather go in for a server with less population but more quality interactions, even though if that means less number of toys to play with rather than a server full of retards who just put " ))))) " everywhere and dont give a damn about interaction whatsoever.

This game is based around interactions and I totally miss that for a few weeks now. If only people can prove how Jump Trading is "good" and " provokes damn interactions" can speak or defend it. I dont want to hear things about evolving, mutations and other worldly things. Justify your reasoning and I will put forward my opinion. Jump drives have effectively became easy to acquire, easy to use, and damn easy to make cash without, the damn retards who jump day in and day out not speaking a single word. They either ignore you when you find them, or let their guns speak with you.

ffs, tell how jumpdrives are better for "RP" in this RP server?

[Omi]

Make jump drives interruptable with CDs, just like cloaks are.

There's half the JD-related problems solved right off the bat.
