Adapt or die

Harden the f**k up




Add more, tell the noobs.BlinkTwisted

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

Had to end sometime.

Right click all of the things.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

All activities must be designed so that others might be able to disrupt it. (aka, butterfly effect)
Eve is kindof a niche game, not everybody will like it. And that is alright.
...there were others, and this was discussed by some of the devs (i think it was CCP Soundwave)

Ah, found it..

Fanfest 2013: Game Design

some takeaways:
-K,I.S.S.
-Let community decide
-Players are more interesting than NPCs
-Every system should affect everyone else.
-CCP just provides tools, players provide content.
-'The social system is more important than practical system balance'
-Elements should still be game-like, not just numbers and steps.
-Don't let your memes be dreams!

Nullsec isn't scary, just be aware it could be hotdrop-o'clock anytime so be ready!

1) Don't mix short and long range weapon systems

2) Pick one type of tank for any given ship

3) Point before web

Newbeans should be aware of when to break them too, though. Bait ships can tank all the things, some non-combat ships can tank hull and shields, and even some frigates can work with ancillary shield and armour reppers (bit pricey on the SAAR these-days for such shenanigans). Don't web before point though, that cannot go well.

You can't trust anyone in EVE

Interesting that the first part of the thread is full of freshly minted anti-rookie nonsense, but this (which should come immediately after "don't fly what you can't afford to lose") was left out.

It's your money, play how you like.

Solecist Project...." They refuse to play by the rules and laws of the game and use it as excuse ..." " They don't care about how you play as long as they get to play how they want."

If you play a bad guy in the game, you're obviously a sociopath in real life

Eve is like an addiction; you can't quit it until it quits you. Also, iderno
