EVE General Discussion

That's not discussion about me. I think CCP actually run a business and I believe they can assess all the risks if they want to, I just want them to want to do it. Belive in them too.

Stop that stupid attack.
Just relax. All what I want, it that someone in CСP at least think they should discuss this game aspect. That not hurt.

I can say same. So, why do they make free DUST?

sounds stupid, join a corp with content creators

Well if that was so easy. Content i want may create only developer, not me.

As i said, something big new and fun. But not for big alliances for all players.

Dust was not free. It was filled with micro transactions. Want a suit you can't fit yet, pay aurum to get the skilless version. And yes you could earn a lot with time, but it was rough. It took me a long time to earn my faction heavy armor bpo. And Dust only profited when a large amount t of micro transactions were added, which made it a bit pay to win. Want an extra 2% damage, pay aurum to upgrade your warbarge (or wait 6 weeks).

As for a supported arena from CCP... It's the alliance tournament and it is well supported. But doing such on a weekly basis dillutes 5th event. Prizes would become cheap and of no value because so many are generated.

Also, you are assuming CCP hasn't looked at this idea. There's been how many alliance tournaments? Plus a few other special ones such as the amarr heir. If CCP wanted it, they would do it. It just doesn't fit in their plans.

Well, I think others have been trying to point you this way but the idea is not necessarily in the developers hands. You have every ability to create your own 'arena' wherever you like. The only problem is that it's a party that's open to being crashed by others. So, as an organizer you'd need to plan for that contingency.

There's nothing wrong with the core 'arena' idea, only that what's up for debate is its necessity.

EVE is heavily influenced by player direction and desires. This euphemistically gets called 'content' but in the end, it's just a sandbox where players go have fun.

You can take some part of the sandbox and make some kind of space arena, which is great because it can move around and have different environmental challenges, but in the end, it's just you doing something you want and others joining in.

So, the discussion isn't black and white, it's just you'll have a hard time convincing players that they devs need to do something that players can do already by themselves in their own myriad of human ways of doing things.

Most of people here tell me what EVE capable have arena now.
But EVE don't have it, at least it's not so good as it might be.
And i don't see the point discuss existing things, because I suggesting improve them further.
I prefer discuss how it might be. You think that's too offensive?

They're not wrong.

It does have it, and your opinion of what is good will differ from that of others; you think it's a good idea, the majority of the posters in this thread think otherwise.

How can you suggest improvements to something you A: believe doesn't exist, and B: don't understand?

Your proposal isn't in line with the nature of Eve, CCP could implement activities such as you suggest very easily, instead they've left the implementation for the players to sort out, which is very much in line with Eve being a player driven game.

That should tell you everything you need to know.
