Hi I've just activated the 10 come back option from CCP. I've been out of the game for a while and wanted to get a flavour of what has changed etc.

What are the good and bad points about the game, is null sec still static and ruled by major power blocks.

Have the ships got better or worst, Which ships are good to fly etc..

Let me know I look forward to the feed back.

If you haven't already, give the Dev Blogs a read. Work back from when you last participated in the community.

The development release cycle has changed from twice annually to once every 6 weeks. Things are churning out faster than previously.

Good luck, and welcome back!

All ships are good in their own way, cfc-sec is on the verge of some hefty changes that may or may not see power shifts. I personally think 10 days isn't enough time to judge whether or not to play a game. You need time to get to know people in EVE and find a decent group to play with to make it enjoyable.

Don't spend those 10 days mining in 1.0. Bear

I am struggling to give an unqualified yes myself, But that could just be the result of reading too much of the cesspit that is GD.

It's always worth coming back to Eve.




What's never worth it.. is leaving in the first place.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

It's not even worth starting and you are asking about coming back?

To me Eve feels like the month before Apocrahya got released in 2009.

I have removed a rule breaking post and the one quoting it.

The Rules:
5. Trolling is prohibited.

Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.

Why leave in the first place....




Q.E.D. Nobody leaves, we all take brakes and eventually come back to EVE.

You just make it look easy because of that ISD Devhack forum toolkit of yours.

The answer is a solid No. Between the constant dumbing down and making a whole class of ships useless with artificial timers, you're better off buying another game or playing a F2P like Dota.

Ignore the poster above me, he is in a cfc failures corp called "the Bastion" which a where the failed unwanted cfc pilots/corps go to avoid infecting the other cfc alliances while still fighting under the cfc banner.


I came back after two years off and I like the changes, I don't get why people in null are worried sick about the game being more accessible to those that are new and in highsec (new players are the biggest importer of plex).

CCP listened to you and we got null stagnation, gankers, 90% quit rates for new accounts in 6 months, and the player count STILL going down.

Overall the game is much better and I'm even more addicted (which is good and bad)...
