Out of Pod Experience

Hi

5 accounts cancelled

Ive been playing this game since 03 and i really now have reached my point of patience gone. And Below is a list why

1. Massive rise in griefer corps
2. massive rise in gank pirates
3. Empire may not aswell exist
4. Jump bridges and capital ships have made 0.0 sov warfare pointless, to easy to defend and lag systems out even with time dilation
5. The eve forums are a cess pit and are never cleaned, constant trolls and fools are never banned. Just given warnings
6. The market is screwed
7. Missions & Mining are now not worth the time
8. The war system has destroyed the entire point of declaring war
9. The new *all in one invetory* is just awful and yet further example of ccp just messing crap up
10. test and Goons - they have destroyed most recruitment and mess up any null sec region at will
11. 0.0 is now pointless as everyone just sticks to hug stations making riaming gangs of 10-15 pointless
12. Solo pvp is just dead, no point anymore
13. Stealth bombers are over powered as is the nado and the drake, im sick of ships being made useless by new designs

14. Most of all i am sick of ccp messing with things and breaking stuff simply because a dude said he can fix it for the better and consquently messes is up

I have a hole host of reasons, but i am done, i have put up with alot of shite from ccps constant f ups and screw ups and im tired of playing an MMO where the makers do not listen to the players at all.

It is quite clear that with dust coming and whitewolf making a new game they simple dont care about eve anymore. Personally i belive they are going to let eve destroy itself.

No u cant have my stuff because i already gave it all away to a brand new player in Emrayur last night. I am not nerd rage quitting, i have given this months of thought and have been logging in less and less. i have simply had enough :)

I'll miss you.

2003 player still grinding newbie professions?

Sounds legit.

See, it's funny, because all the posters are proving the OP's points....

Another "I'm quitting Eve thread"? Damn at this rate in 6 months time I may be the only player left in Hisec Heimatar

these replies really do prove OP's point of this forum being kind of a shithole.

I can't fault the OP at all.

The illustration of his points by the peanut squad speaks volumes.

The best place for this is in the feedback request when you cancel your account. Time and time again forum warriors have shown no mercy or remorse for those who chose the dramatic departure approach, especially since history has shown that it's usually an act seldom followed through. Now, if you came here specifically to lay it on the forum community, then I dunno what to say....all I know is they still won't care.

I hate them as much as you, but have they really risen? People have been scaming and being lame since the start of Eve. Goons may have taken it to a new level but since the dawn of the internet those that can't stand up to people in real life come to the web and act 8 foot tall. I don't see this as a new phenomena.

2. massive rise in gank pirates
This isn't necessarily bad. Pirating is part of the game. Also someone who has played as long as you must understand people must not be able to just make isk without losing isk. Total safe isk making creates mudlfation ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mudflation) which is really bad in a sandbox. To me the problem is not the amount of pirates but the attitudes of pirates. It seems to be all about "collecting tears' instead of collecting booty, thats wrong. That's not a problem with Eve, but a problem with kids today.

3. Empire may not aswell exist
I don't see what you mean? Again I point you to mudflation. Personally I've never died to a player in empire since my first day when I grabbed a cargo bait.

4. Jump bridges and capital ships have made 0.0 sov warfare pointless, to easy to defend and lag systems out even with time dilation This one I have to give you. Jump mechanics totally break 0.0. It allows a large alliance to hold and defend too many of the limited valuable assets in Eve. Goons have Tech moons so far from their home it is just silly. You shouldn't be able to have assets in places you dont live in to defend. I agree with you, and it's pretty game breaking. But it's not new to eve, so why leave now?

5. The eve forums are a cess pit and are never cleaned, constant trolls and fools are never banned. Just given warnings
Another one I have to give you. Misconduct on the forum should be tied to in game bans. Then maybe people will stop acting like children. Either way its not part of the game, you can play Eve and never log into these forums/

6. The market is screwed
I don't follow? Because of the rise of minerals, thus the rise of other thing?. Step outside the box it's not all that bad. Everyone shouldn't be flying blinged out faction ships, and PvPing in BSs. Losses should matter. At a certain point it's going to get out of hand, but ships need to be expensive enough to matter. Mudflation man. I've taken to PvPing in T1 cruisers. Last night I went 14v1(me) in a Stabber. Popped 2 AF and a rifter then GTFO.

7. Missions & Mining are now not worth the time
Doesn't this contradict 6? With the increase of mineral price mining is much more profitable. If you take the 15% hit to yield and mine in a covetor even if you get ganked you come out ahead because of high mineral prices. I afk mine in a retriever or in a high-sec island. One no one wants to waste the time and effort ganking, the other there are no gankers because they dont go through low-nul.

8. The war system has destroyed the entire point of declaring war
I can't say one way or the other, as I have not experienced the new system enough yet. It seems like they took a crappy war-dec system, and made it a little less crappy but in the other way. The net gain or loss isn't that big.

9. The new *all in one invetory* is just awful and yet further example of ccp just messing crap up
I think you are just be resistant to change. It's a bit understandable since you've been here since 03. But the new system is much more intutive. There's a reason windows has been using something similar with windows explorer since windows 95. Admittedly a few problems but CCP has addressed these and said these will be fixed quickly. With the tree and shift+click nearly every activity can be done quicker. We just all need to learn how to get where we need quickly. It really is a step in the right direction no need to scream the sky is falling. Just give it a bit.

10. test and Goons - they have destroyed most recruitment and mess up any null sec region at will
Yeah there recruitment scam is disgusting. They know the negative feelings the inflict on people by stealing all of their assets. They may be just fake video game assets, but people are vested in their Eve. They know the real saddness they make and they keep doing it. Some people are just bad people. But you know what? There are assholes IRL and in eve. Quitting Eve is not going to make you interact with less assholes unless you dont leave the house.

11. 0.0 is now pointless as everyone just sticks to hug stations making riaming gangs of 10-15 pointless
This is so wrong. Maybe you should hang out in NPC nul more and less Sov nul. We never take out gangs bigger than 10-15 because then noone wants to fight. 15 man gangs seem to be the sweet spot for us actually.

12. Solo pvp is just dead, no point anymore
So wrong. I went out in a T1 cruiser the other night killed 3/15 of a gang and got away. It was sick, such a rush. I don't think solo PvP was ever intended to be easy. Solo PvP is all about splitting the larger enemy fleet. Get them stuck on opposite sides of gates or get the fast ships to chase you out of range of the rest of their fleet.

Really man you shouldn't quit Eve. You are making mountains out of molehills. Take some time to cool off an reconsider. If you really do decide to quit Eve can I have your stuff I promise it will go to good use. Everytime I am in high-sec running lvl 4s I recruit noobs to come with me. I usually buy them the biggest ship they can fly and try and help them over the steep learning curve. So your funds will go to good use if you're really not going to use them. But you should just keep on subbing, you know you want2
