New Fight Zone

Due to the lagging in B8 from the many bots, "The Fight Zone" has been moved to Sedina D2

EDIT

Also, the "Spot" if you can't find anyone should be the roids closest to the planet

if we're gonna officially move the "fight zone" why not move it to odia like everyone's been talking about?

I still have a feeling people will congregate in B8 out of habit though.

Yah, let's move it to Odia. Not the wormholes though.. Ideas?

Edit: or the deserted station racetrack in Sedina...

Abandoned station race track would be cool

Get the **** away from my race tracks.

But Box, if people congregated near your racetracks then wouldn't they be inclined to...um, race? And you are the one who has been whining about your 'lack of competition' , this presents an easy solution. Heck, all those trigger-happy pilots could make the races interesting (not to mention entertaining).

Actually the "trigger happy pilots" are more likely to L mine the tracks and flare/missile me from the outside.

But yea sure if there's some organized races even with weapons then it'd be an improvement.

All joking aside, the station race track would probably kill the framerate for a lot of people. We had some fun in D2 tonight, it makes for interesting fights with the roids there. But if we want to move it to odia, that works too. There's bound to be a few cool empty roid sectors there.

I think it will take time to rip Bait from the hearts of PvPers everywhere, but if it bothers people with bad systems/connections that much, the Odia should be the new battleground.

We sure don't mind if you fight around M-14... >.>

Do we, Joyce? <.<

Or Edras it has some nice densely packed bone roid fields. I always wanted to have a fight in there back in the day.

Basically ANY WH sector is gonna be a lag-gasmic framerate-killing "wading-in-molasses" type of experience.

I'm all for Odia, but no station sectors, please...
Oct 28, 2005 jexkerome link
There are plenty of empty sectors around M-14 that would be perfect for fighting, though I can't remember any Hive-empty asteroid sectors nearby. Not that I've looked, mind you.

Well hopefully the devs will just fix the lag issue but sedina-odia-bractus are fine by be as possible systems to move to, NOT Edras though.

Odia's best, because it's just plain off anybody's convoy route.
Oct 28, 2005 LeberMac link
Get yer butt ingame sos I can kills ya, ctish! I'll never forgive you for burning up my tequila!

Yeah east side of Odia somewhere would be nice. Makes the ferrying IBG Cents down from Jallik less arduous.

Sedina D2 works great - very good roid system, easy enough to get to, and not in a place where it can get easily disturbed.
Oct 28, 2005 smittens link
Again, my reason why Sedina should still be the fighting sector:

In Sedina, you have Corvus and Xang Xi. Near Sedina, you have Orion, TPG, Ineubis, and Tunguska.

If you're in Odia, you have Tunguska, Ineubis, and Corvus. Near it you have...nothing else.

Sedina allows for the most variety of ships for the large majority that would mostly be too lazy to fly more than a system for a fight.
