^^ After the patch before today I unexpectedly found myself being nosed by 3 or 4 ships during a mission. I was suprised at how fast the cap went down. I don't remember what mission it was, but I think it was a storline mission. I had to warp out, good thing there were no warp scrams.

It's still neat I think to have a little more challenge in the missions.

uhhh, the coalition can forum monger all they want for years to come, and they still wouldn't add up to the whoring that BoB has done.

Guess it's not a fault to avoid then.

Honestly, everyone whores up the forums pretty equally. CAOD is a shithole.

Is there any easy way to see if you're being warp scrambled? I don't always notice the little blue rings and I don't always test myself to warp out and waste cap. UI mod or something maybe?

There's the little blue rings, and you also get a message in the combat box when someone starts to scramble you. That's it, I'm afraid.

Theres also the noise. Makes a low pitch thudding noise thats pretty hard to miss.

I've never heard it

Hell I don't even get notifications in my log about warp scams.

I definitely get notifications in my log (but the log is pretty shitty for lots of reasons.)

This game needs visual clues just like every other game out there has.

Warp scrammed? Put a symbol on the screen to indicate it.

I play with the sound off, so voice or sound effects don't work. And the log is useless. So is the little popup window.

Visual indicators.

FoghornDeadhorn · 04-04-2007, 02:07 PM

It's clearly intentional they don't want you knowing what your enemy is doing to you all the time.

I strongly agree, but a lot of vocal EVE forum players have the "X is like WoW, and WoW is awful, so X must be awful" disease and get real pissy when people suggest things like that.

Well....it's true...and great WoW PVPers have to look for visual indicators other than their debuff bar as well to see what timers their opponent is using. Used to have to mind spells as well but obviously that got fixed...

Excuse me, this is an EVE thread, and in the world of EVE, no WoW players have to pay attention to anything, because their UI mods do it all for them. PvP in WoW is so easy a six-year-old could do it, which is why, as any EVE player will tell you, six is the average age of a WoW player.

Quick way to find out if you're being warp-scrambled...try to warp somewhere.
