If they're not complaining they need to be nerfed.

There, I said it.


2015: The Year of the Delete Key.

I fully expect CCP Larrikin to visit lowsec soon. He will no doubt disable the F1 button from all solo ships because they are not interacting enough. This will be shortly after he deletes Orbit and Approach from the game, rendering brawling frigates practically useless. But that doesn't matter because it will improve nullsec fleet gameplay by 1.4%.

I feel like lowsec is the space where people really live together, unlike high and null, which are simply zones of isolations of varying degrees. There's an individual ignorance of highseccers, with groups of shared ignorance from corporations, and a more society-level of ignorance when it comes to alliances and nullsec.

In lowsec you can't ignore anyone, because everyone roams around freely and no organizations control space well enough to keep others out.


Fascinating!


So should I mine in lowsec instead?

Low Sec is also, very empty. I often find it safer to travel through it, pick up some shopping from an alt and be on my way than to go through High Sec.
Only thing you need to watch for is the High Sec / Low Sec gate camps but if you are hitting the gate, with a decent tank from behind them and tag into High Sec there isn't much they can do.

(Also, it is great fun to grab a Null Sec fleet and chase the FW pigeons off)

I have yet to see this very empty Low Sec that you speak of. I have come across 1 or 2 empty systems very late at night during my time zone. It just means people need to sleep.

I do feel Low Sec is safer than High Sec. I'm not sure what has happened, but High Sec scares me now.

I doubt anyone wants to fight a huge blob. I think many of us prefer solo and small fleet warfare.

Oh, and to the other person. I haven't mined in Low Sec yet. I'm sure that could prove very interesting.

Low sec is simply the best place to be to PVP. Nulls is a mighty different beast, more of a "Team" mentality and nation building. Low Sec is fight for your right to fight for your right to fight.

There's always NPC Nullsec, which seems to basically be low sec with bubbles?

Mining in low-sec once allowed you to get a bit of Megacyte, but they changed the Spodumain mix and removed that in favor of more tritanium, I think?

In Null, no-one will hear you scream... in Low, someone will hear it, and come running for the roadkill remains.

Nulsec you get to have sov and own stuff. Wormholes are dangerous. Lowsec is sort of for fake and unbalanced pvp.

Highsec is perfectly safe, just have a permit and you're right as rain.

Excellent ideas for a better EVE!

Also all lo-sec systems should be no more than 1 AU across so I can travel between the areas of the game that matter more quickly!
