Hi CCP can you please make a second server that's more fast-paced, where warping doesn't take so long that I want to chew my feet off? Make mining faster. Make missiles fly faster. Make lasers shoot faster.

Just make everything faster.

Everything except of CONCORD. Nerf CONCORD. After you made everything fast enough, having a steady income will be so easy that people will actually buy a ship to participate in fights (of which there will be plenty), without being afraid to lose it. At that point, people won't care much if the whole game is nullsec.

+1 for this please, guys.

You people aren't even trying anymore.

You asked me once, what was in Room 101. I told you that you knew the answer already. Everyone knows it. The thing that is in Room 101 is the worst thing in the world.

We do want faster warp acceleration on this server though, specially on intercepters, but only in warp

I think you don't grasp the core thing that draws a lot of people to eve. there is only one production server, everyone is on one shard. with this idea, it would segment the players. the current server would probably be ignored by most new people, and the new server would be ignored by many of the old players since they have the skills here.

Well do you want to spend your time fighting or warping and grinding? I'm currently afraid to warp. Warping in Eve enlightens me in a very brutal obvious way about just how useless playing games is, more than any book about online addiction ever could.

Fortunately you now have time to read those books whilst warping. Enjoy.

Nein!

Single shard! Single Universe! Everything affects everyone!

EDIT:

"Make missile fly faster."

That makes sense, some missiles can shoot from 130km (?) if skilled right and you want to widen the gap?

Reduce flight time to compensate....tahdah, faster missile with the same range.

Making things faster is not the way to go. Traveling is already faster than it used to be.


WoW made traveling easier when they revamped the older part of the game by allowing flying mounts in the up to lvl 60 regions. Then people moaned that it had killed world PvP.


You keep speeding up travel in a game and the whole feel of the game changes parts of the game become more redundant as there's little reason to go there. You start to rush around tending to forget about exploration (this part is more for leveling characters) as you zoom about doing missions/quests.

In short fast travel usually results in cheapening the gaming experience although if travel is far too slow it becomes boring.

If there was instant travel just think of all the gate camps you could bypass and all the QQ on the forums that would follow.



Travel speed is about right as it is now for this game. imo (thought I'd better add that as I bound to get a comment otherwise).



As for fast missiles etc, seems pointless even answering that one but then the op is only really trolling anyway.

Both true and good but warp times need to be faster. Either change it to allow for faster align, acceleration to warp, and warp, and deceleration all at once, or just do what you think is best but please CCP, make the warping faster. Combined with lag and server delays, this is a huge PITA and does next to nothing to better gameplay - except in pvp intense environments and even then, its mostly nullsec and blobs that would love an increase in warp travel time.

Have any players of note - those with actual weight in the community - brought this up?
