Even with grief lock, it's still feasible for a friendly tank to ruin the attempts of a large number of players. With the F2P model, all you need to create an account is an email address at this stage, as far as we know, which makes it easier to abuse the system.

You may wish to say it won't make an impact on the overall fight although I disagree, but it certianly makes an impact on a local fight where hours of play could be sabotaged. It's fun to fight, it's not fun to be deliberately TK'd repeatedly to prevent you achieving what you want to.

i suppose sabatoge could be an issue - but we will have to see the mechanics in action before we know if it matters.

maybe just maybe something useful could be gleaned by checking the other empires Mission pool (assuming its available to view empire wide?)...but knowing this, the canny CR5 group aint going to broadcast the nights plan on it..

also,
I someone wants to get a spy alt up to CR5..then good on them, they deserve to get the inside scoop..that stuff takes a loooong time (or it did in PS1)

Nailed it.

Though hopefully its not just a matter of grinding to CR5 to get access to cont chat.
