Way back in 2014 when FDEV first explained block and how it would work they gave chain interdiction as an example of when to use it.
Griefers make open impossible, and how easy the solution is.

Wow @photomankc - you were one of the unlucky few in those wars.... (I should have worded that in 1st person) - and I forgot that you were 'on the other side' in at least one conflict...
The rest, total agreement
Yeah, it was fun. Some others really got bent over things but I thought it was still fun (even though I sucked).
Not true. I read up on how the modes worked, watched the David Braben dislikes teenage griefers video, then the David Braben dislikes guilds video, then I read up on blocking. I did that while the flyable demo downloaded, then I tried it and bought in immediately and have been having a blast ever since. Like I said I'm really picky about video games, so I prefer reading a little to wasting money. The same approach saved me from star citizen as they are not clear about anything except prices and their demo sucks.
If I was really into compulsory PVP I'd have noped out before the download finished since it was really really obvious from everything I read that its just not how the games put together.
It really is just PEBCAK with a hugely unrealistic entitled demand to alter the entire MMO for a few selfish types tacked to the end, go away if you don't like it.
I can't pretend to be at all sympathetic.
Whereas for me with KS I had nothing, along with a good many others (which is a fading edge case these days). And these days I don't think people are willing to spend hours getting information and instead rely on what the storefront says.
Features like Powerplay, or solo BGS murder sprees are hard to level with people unless they know about modes and blocking first to frame expectations.
You are not alone Cmdr.
You're right. How could I ever have mistaken your statement for universal derision? "Like the ones" makes all the difference.
When I back a game in development I factor change into my expectations and even then don't buy before I have the specific answers to the specific questions I consider important. I've never been disappointed by a game I backed early.
Having said that I'm sick of doing playtesting and spoilers so I'm over early access completely. Waiting means you get a better product and better information about the product.
Dont worry, i think we'll get there soon
Can I interest you in some Galnet as written by us, the forum? https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/breaking-news.537195/#post-8286692
It has the filth you seek, no need for waiting for page 69. Did I mention it has Thargoids, naked Powerplay and rice based Aisling cat people?

Thank you. I'm glad we cleared that up.You're right. How could I ever have mistaken your statement for universal derision?
Maybe because you're an avid Eve player and don't like people saying stuff about the game like you assumed I did. It's understandable. But, since you used that smiley and I was genuinely not generalising, allow me to also repeat the context.
I was talking about some guilt/faction leaders in about any mmo you find. They're also around in Elite but less prevalent. And here they, as I said in my initial post, they can't restrict my game.
Now, I trust we're crystal.
A little something for everyone. But not many peoples perfect world. Ill take what I can get.
The point is, with so many concepts its hard to work out how they interlock- and often you have to know about one to get a handle on the rest in the right order- and this is all before you buy it.
I'm helping.
These threads have a lot in common with that particular position.
Wait and see works for me when things are in flux. Once I know I'll decide. It even applies to new era, if its space-feet and if its 3rd person only then I'll nope out even though I'm a huge ED fanboy.
Seriously slim chance of that, but I'll not commit before I'm sure.
Haven't played in 3 years, but still friends with the old gang. We play different games now.
Yeah, no, I get that you let a little bit of defensive fanboi spill out and had to mop it up. We're crystal on that.
You should check out the most recent addition!
What I write doesn't matter, does it? You have made your mind up from the moment you misread my post and got upset about it, and can't help getting personal every other post.
