EVE General Discussion

I'm going to leave this here:

Why is it every year CCP tries to ruin the game one way or another?
If EvE starts catering to the casuals I'm out of here.

Discuss your opinions.

Link to proposed changes?

Obviously a significant part of the game's content.

Me too where?

The last csm minutes, the proposal is to change intracorp aggression mechanics to in line with alliance mechanics I.e. CONCORD response in high sec.

Ccp feel it's detrimental to newbies who join a veteran Corp only to find that they are hunted for sport ,
even in the minutes it was a fairly polarizing subject, funky bacon and a couple of other were strongly averse to it as it was presented and we had a big rabble about it here but nothing more has been said on the subject (as far as I'm aware anyway).

CCP should simply adds a new option (something like : allow corp member to shoot you without Concord retaliation : yes/no).

Seriously, what's next? CCP will ban scam?

Except AWOXers don't really go after newbies because newbies don't have the skill to fly those juicy Orcas and Golems. Besides what's next then, removing scamming and suicide ganking? SMH, SMH.

topic has been beaten to death already. Change is happening, for those that dont like it the door is that way.

I don't know what people would usually expect from me regarding this topic ...
... but there is not a shadow of a doubt that this is a seriously ****** up change that makes no sense in actual ingame reality.


Yes, "new player friendly" corporations get awoxxed ... and they do that rightfully so!

Because they are crap.


Unless CCP creates a few dozen alts ...
... and starts checking out all these crappy corps ...
... and then comes to a proper conclusion ...
... any proposed change based on "data" is simply bullshit.


If the Minutes actually have anything relevant to actual reality (= what actually really happens ingame) ...
... then please point me to a page so I can read it up.


Everything else is just crap and bullshit. Most "new player friendly corps" out there get killed off for the
simple reason that they are not doing anyone any good. It makes NO sense at all to remove the mechanic
just because some people get killed inside the corp.

If the CEO isn't smart enough to keep his people together, safe or gather them up to fight the awoxxer,
then it's not the fault of the mechanic! And no ******* one can tell me that a bunch of noobs couldn't
properly deal with an awoxxer. Put ten noobs in frigates with a proper FC and they kick ass.

Most "new player friendly" corps out there are only about dicksizes. How many members the CEOs can gather.
Carebear CEOs.

This is what it's really about, because no one who is actually worth running such a corp would whine about
awoxxers or would be unable to get his people together and fight whatever threat there is!

Only carebears whine about this. If CCP caters to these people then ooohhh boooyyy good night EVE ONLINE,
because we will see an influx of horrible losers this game will not survive in the long run! These people will
shape the future of this game, because they have power over new players!

It's bad enough with all the assholes in rookiecorps telling people to mine or run missions.



With such a change it will only get WORSE!




I said it before, I am saying it again:

The whole issue has NOTHING to do with game mechanics and is ALL about social engineering!

The day has come when the two of us agree on something.

That's ... weird! ;)


Anyhow, you are right. Any halfwit can stop awoxxing.
The issue isn't the mechanic of being able to shoot corpmembers,
the issue are the corpmembers themselves.

No CEO worth the title can't deal with that!


This is all about carebears and nothing else.

The idea of "rookie friendly corps" was one of the biggest bullshit ideas they ever had.
