EVE is not geared towards solo play.

Been playing almost entirely solo since I started.

My only complaint is with looting. When I first got into EvE I thought my friend would join me and I intended to fly a combat duo, but if he changed his mind and started playing tonight... I'd have him running a destroyer in a salvager setup

Generally, I wish ships had larger cargo bays or that loot was smaller and cleaning up low end missions takes so long that I could just do another mission in that time. When you factor in dragging the loot to a good place for sale... cost of a salvaging ship which still takes a good bit of time... the skill train time for refining/reporcessing... space lost to ammo... then some missions I don't even get as far as loot since they have me pick up cargo that doesn't even FIT IN MY SHIP Ugh... just feels like it's all 'in the way' of advancing my standing and skills to do higher missions and finance PvP endeavors.

I'd really love some mini-marauders for T2 destroyers and battlecruisers. Role bonuses for all three should also include salvager duration reduction and I'd like them to have larger cargo bays.


thers this great ship called a Noctis, you should try it sometime. Cool

tradable killrights with a proper bounty hunting system.

contract goes up, person accepts player knows where target is AT ALL TIMES

player is paid the value of the ship destroyed or if its less the full bounty

those with good pirate standings would get notification on who the pilot is that is looking for them


Fun times will be had by all

Played solo over 4 years - shocked to see solo players accepting things the way they are.

It is way too demanding difficulty wise and time wise for a solo player, the whole game is skewed to support groups of players - leaving the casual (probably majority) of players out in the cold waiting for some massive game improvement that will never come.

More content and protection is needed for solo play it's as simple as that.
