It's not so bad unless you have two afks in your HAV sitting, having no way to kick them :).
Happend to me.

So you decided to join the party then?

I like to imagine all the flaylock shots I put on you killed you over and over again. Screw idle kick, let us team kill these jerks in the MCC. AFK should cost them ISK.

Die in the dirt like the rest of us. To AFK because everyone else is doing it is sh!t. Leave the match and find one where people are playing if it bothers you that much. Also, if this is being done to make a point about "idle kick"...well...think about it. It is causing the problem you are trying to solve.

Sorry guys. I normally don't come on here to b!tch, but to be in the same match on the same team as the OP, then to see him here posting about it has got me steamed.

The solution to fixing a broken game is not to break it more, especially when it still benefits you at a cost to other players who still want to play. CCP could care less about your silent protest. Maybe they can let you skill into picket signs and peaceful dissent. Damn hippies. Buy some passives, and come back in a few months to see if this is still for you.

I relieved stress for 15 seconds, then jumped out to be redlined repeatedly. I like to imagine a glitch might let me take you out sometimes.

We were winning that match until everyone crapped out on us.

CCP can't afford to lose AFKers.

If its not worth logging on to not play they will never log on again.

Kitten that !! I will rather play with 2,000 fully active players, than 5,000 in which half AFK, or snipes in the red line. This is a game, play it or go away.

2,000 would be death for this game.

Half of the player base AFKing, is going to be the death of this game...mind my words. Few months from now, is just going to be about 2000 people AFKing in the MCC every battle. So i rather take my chances with fully active players.

OP is mad he didn't get an invitation to the MCC Party.

If only AFK people could get a text to majority vote, we could vote kick all the try hards.

CCP won't fix this anytime soon, as far as we can tell CCP believes this to be a legitimate and fair tactic, one that belongs in the EVE universe and is here to stay for many more months to come.

Lol, so many

OMG AFK cloak Stealth Bomber threads on the EVE forums.


Its pretty funny, these threads remind me of all the "AFK SB" threads and supposed fixes on that board.

No, there is a legitimate counter to AFK cloaking (it's not my fault that it is so statistically improbable to bump into the AFK cloaker that you're more likely to win the lottery everyday for the rest of your life).

Currently, we have so such legitimate counter to MCC AFKers.

If we had 100% Friendly Fire from all sources in all game modes then your argument would be valid.

Where do I go in eve where all I have to do is hit ONE button 2 times, to make as much money as the guy who flies his titan/mothership/carrier into a 10/10 site using tactics and risking all. There are lot's of easy routes , but not that easy.. even scamming requires more work. The market requires more work.. fkn mining requires more work.. where is this isk faucet in New Eden you speak of?

Lol, you would regret that decision. I don't know how many times I have had a deep desire to shoot all the blues on my team.

I can see the forums flooded with "OMG TK TK TK. STOP TK!"

No, actually I wouldn't regret that decision at all.

As far as your "legitimate tactic" is concerned, pray tell, just how do I swap sides mid match to watch the MCC formerly known as my own teams go down in a ball of flames with the MCC AFKers aboard?

Well, you can try quitting the match and requeing and getting back into the match as a Red. This is still better odds then poping a AFK cloaking Bomber in a Off Path safe spot.

So how much ISK and active SP does a AFK bomber earn in EVE, out of curiosity.

Depends on the market in the area. If you AFk Bomber in an enemy territory so that they cannot mine and you AFK mine in a nearby zone, then you can make a big haul based on decreased supply in the area of whatever minerals you were AFK mining.

So can you sign in, click join match, and make a profit safely?

Jita Market

Pretty much, depending on if you have a good corp or not. They do all the area patrolling and you just sit back and rake in the cash.

LOL , I played the jita market for 2 years bud. Have you ever for one day? That is an absurd statement. If you were going to use market , even though I already said the market reqquires more of you.. which it does, no ifs ands or buts about it , you would have been better off saying some lo sec system that pirates frequent flipping mid size and small ships with pvp oriented gear on the market.. having way less competition to compete with. But NO, you say Jita Market.. lols the definition of market pvp

* and also to point out, you got to have something to make something in the markets

Not really, you just put a contract on the market and then every once in awhile advertise the contract as a good deal. Like buying 2 plex for like 1 billion, and you make it like 1 million and some idiot clicked it and you made about 999 million profit in about 30 seconds.

There is an idiot born every minute

So all it takes to make a quick profit in EVE is to pay for a subscription, skill up into bombers, join a good active corp, and play in low / null sec space, actively watching your computer for that opportune moment to strike.

They should probably just put MCCs in EVE so we can all just sit around right from the get go

Well, in Dust you can only make like 1 million an hour. In EVE, you could probably make about 60 million an hour with about the same amount of effort if your corp owns good territory.

At this exact point in time the actual numbers are irrelevant, you have to put in contrast with what we can actually spend that cash on. There are things to do and buy in EVE.

Not so much in DUST

Happend to me.

Ground based AFK'ers are the best I feel compelled to attempt to push them either into battle or beyond the redline with a LAV I realise that makes me less useful than the AFK'ers as I am costing clones but its just too funny to stop. Listening to people rage when they come back and wonder how they were killed or when you get silence after depositing them in front of a confused looking reddot then a few minutes later you get they left the battle message.
