#1. Hotdropping is not the only solution. The problem is people aren't looking for solutuions, they are looking for anti-EVE "fixes". This is dumbing down the game.

#2. I don't give a flip about player retention. Who needs players/opponents that are stupid and can't adapt. Making a game high on "player retention" means thempark/WOW types stuff.

No thanks, I'll take EVE player quality over other games player quantity anyday. CCP needs subs, I don't.


I haven't read through the whole thread yet... but this hits the nail on the head fro me too. I don't give a big flip about CCPs business model (as long as they continue to be motivated to making EVE work). That simply means that if CCP ever decided to make EVE more WOWtastic, a whole lot of players would be gone in less than a heartbeat.

Three rules of EVE to live by:

#1: Life is hard in EVE -- Suck it up!
#2: No one cares -- Don't like something, DO something about it, don't ask for the "Powers That Be" to fix it for you... This is OUR sandbox.
#3: EVE is not WOW -- If you want simple to understand gameplay, by gawd, please go play WOW! You'll be happy... We'll be happy... everyone wins!
