Im old enough to be a vet but dont play a lot because I am bored. The people that make a crap ton of isk play all the time. I constantly hear these stories of people making billions, wich im sure is true, but not for some one that doesnt log in every day.

Ive been playing since 2009 and only have a little over 3 billion isk, and that with 3 accounts. I know how to play the game, but like to do things that burns isk more then making it.

A large part of it is that I refuse to go anywhere with out the small group of freinds that I have made since that is they way we like to play. In small annoying gangs of friends. Wich was soundwaves idea of the future but he is gone now. We've all gone idle because of this. I constantly find myself logging in to see if anyone else shows up but just doing other stuff on the other monitor. Constantly realizing that the things I can easily do are things Ive done a million times before.

EVE is a really good game. The sandbox is awesome. Thats why I cant give it up. The problem with a sandbox however is the fact that you can never truly profit on a small scale.

I am losing interest in dealing with the people in EVE and playing less as a result.

Stop dealing with people who make you feel that way, and just share your time with people who're fun.

It's of course a rhetoric question.

The reason for me is time. I rarely get more than 2 hours to play EVE now and since high sec can bite my ass that critically reduces the scope of things to do that I enjoy doing.

My fave issue is when I log in to realise local space is flooded with enemy pings so by the time I relocate or get a gang togetjer half my play time is gone.

Don't get me wrong I don't blame EVE for that. I am slowly adapting my playstyle to be more fluid and to be ok with 'slow' sessions where kills are hard to come by and those explo sites just don't give up the goodies.

How about you? Are you a vet not playing but not because you are bitter? Do you spend more time reading about eve because you have time to do that rather than play?

What would you like to see to help get content fit into sub 2 hours sessions?


join a pirate Corp that just gate camps usually best for this and short stints or even you don't want to be bad join brave or rvb

All my views are my own - never be afraid to post with your main, unless you're going to post some dumb shit

Have you tried FW out OP?If you want casual instant 'content' then FW is the place to be.

We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.

Oh i dabbled for 2 years :)

I think I am leaning towards waiting to see fozziesov come in then take some guys out to sov to watch the world burn. Turns out providence is going to heat up soon. CFC rebranded to The imperium and is going to **** on their chips. I think my amarrian friends could do with some asistance lol.
