How is this different from any other game?...

That's not an excuse really. EVE being different here in a positive way compared to other games wouldn't hurt.

Total rubbish. Unless it's a deliberately profitless freighter gank (which happen but are VERY rare) ganking is almost inevitably the victims mistake. The mechanic they should have used is to transport less value at once, quite obviously.. Pirate

Not to mention the huge list of other precautions most of them never take.


Oh dear hot air and no detail of this huge list.

1. Do not AFK
2. Watch local
3. Use a scout
4. Set them -10
5. Use a webber
6. Never take more than 1bn
7. Dock up at the sight of any danger

Does that sound about right? Such impressive counters, I almost came writing them Shocked

That was suffficent in the last 6 years:

1. Do not AFK
2. Watch local
6. Never take more than 1bn

Remove standings and insurance.

Ignorant post.

1. The current situation with ganking is stupid and very likely why sub's are declining and also why you're not getting better toys.

2. Solo is dead. Sure you can fly a frigate around and get 30 sec fights in a ship that costs less one of the hard points on a real ship. Generally frigate PvP is consensual PvP due to the fact that frigates can almost always escape. Real EvE PvP is non-consensual and involves losses that hurt.

A few years ago I took a a couplr of 2 billion isk Proteus and a 1.5 billion isk pod to null solo and killed 31 players losing both ships and the pod. That's solo PvP. That's risk. That's harsh. Most importantly that's hand shaking seat of your pants PvP. Frigate PvP is not and if its the new definition of solo PvP then yes real EvE solo is dead.

My killboard's crap, because I'm bad at this game, but can't argue with the OP. Seems like good info to me.

The Laugh Out Loud poster. The Internet's version of the frilled neck lizard which expands its frill to appear much larger and relevant than it actually is. This poster has no argument thus they post their "lols" and disappear hoping those "lols" somehow won them the argument.

Unfortunately no they didnt because you have no argument. You want to go jump in your little frigate risking nothing and pretending you're a hardcore EvE PvPr go ahead - the fact remains it takes more effort to recover from armor damage in WoW than it does to recover from a frigate loss.

I never stated I was "hardcore" and quite frankly any idiot that run's around shouting "solo pvp is dead"

Are you actually serious?

Do you even watch YouTube videos of solo pvp pilots?

No, let me guess, that is beneath you right? Do you even follow the "my eve" forum section on here?

Is that beneath you?

You drip arrogance and stupidity.

Get a clue

Someone tell this guy about those videos please :)

Clue: you know the video of the guy in a small pulse fit Rohk who slaughters 8 players? No watch it. Now go check how many Rohks he lost before he found a corp that stayed in range the entire fight while they got slaughtered. Any decent pvpr getting hit by small pulse know optimal is around 5k and would moved to 10k and destroyed him without losing a single ship.

Look it up some guy fit small pulse lasers on a Rokh and wiped out a small corp with it. Posted it on YouTube. It looks good till you check killboard and realise he lost 30 Rokhs that year to get that one vid.

I remember the video though, it was hilarious.

Note: how often do you see me standing up for Infinity Ziona, he's got a point.
