EVE General Discussion

You are incorrect about the purpose of Duality and SiSi.

Duality is for specific, scheduled mass testing of a particular mechanic or bug fix.

SiSi is for general testing of the new features that will be coming out in the next update or expansion. People use it as a test bed to try new ships or tactics "for free", and that's fine, but not really the main purpose of the server.

Worst thread in a long time, and that is saying something.

So basically, in a SANDBOX GAME you want to induce an arbitrary rule that if the server decides you outnumber the opponent, CONCORD shows up and fucks you up?

This is incredibly naive.

So what happens if 5 people attack my 5 people .. I can just warp 4 away and have CONCORD fight my battles?

There is so much wrong with this, both on a conceptual level and one of implementation that I literally don't know where to start.

No, just no.

Remember, sisi is a There will be superfriends teams running their tests, or the strange people who think a sisi km means anything. There are specific rules for sisi which make it ideal for 1 v 1 combat. Want to do 1v1, give a shout and fight anybody then have consentual pvp not at the combat beacons of the pvp system. Pvp is allowed outside the beacons providing is consentual

Under this rule, if you agree to a 1v1, if somebody else comes and helps or interferes, that is petitionable as a violation of the Sisi rules. Provided the combat wasn't at a CA beacon.

I find it ironic that you would use rules pertaining to an organization that promotes fighting in a one on one format, even going so far as to exclude the rule "Only two men to a fight." in order to make PvP in Eve seem edgy or cool. Eve and WoW are two games I would NEVER expect a fair fight.

Well that's nifty I guess that you find the list ironic. This list is a variation of one I made for AOC, the main differences being that I didn't allow smacktalk and there was no pad camping. Personally I never expect a fair fight in any game. It's human behavior for competitive people to find any advantage they can, even if it includes cheating. This isn't a cheat though, outnumbering your opponent has been a long time strategic advantage.

This is one reason I hate high sec people. None of you have the slightest clue how the game works.

Now that's where you are making a big mistake.
You see, To me, high sec is there to get used to the game, train up your skills, get some experience, get some isk to start with, make some friends to lay out a plan with and THEN, when all that is done, you move to low and beyond.

I get what you're saying, there's 4 -5 even 6 year old chars out there, who do nothing but dwell the belts in high sec, but not me. I'm there till i am confident that I and my corp mates can survive in low and beyond, that's it.

Besides, i can't really blame the high sec dwellers, i mean, what do low sec belts have to offer, other then the occasional Jaspet and the added danger?
There really is very little reason for them to take that risk, perhaps that should be addressed?
