As far as I can tell from talking to random folk in hi-sec local, most hi-sec players have little or no real interest in null-sec, Goons or TEST etc.

So I am at a loss as to why hi-sec folk would unite to fight them.

This is not to disrespect the Goons etc as they do provide a lot of good meaningful gameplay (Ice Interdiction for example) but, to be honest the EGO wars in null are just not that entertaining.

Lets be honest, if the Goons stopped spamming the forums, they would effectively disappear for most players.

This is not a signature.

That's just not going to happen, and you know why.

The big Nullsec alliances should ramp up their recruitment drives.

It's clearly the solution to all your lack of combat woes.

I dont think for one moment 0.0 will ever be a sea of blue.Power blocks come ad go ,and the game changes BOB was going to control null ,now its gone.Everything in a sandbox game is ever changing.Also lets remember DUST is just around the corner ,maybe days away from release,and sov changes will come to EVE as a consequence.I aso think holding on to vast amounts of territory will become even harder in the comming years.With new POSes i think being able to be captured or destroyed ,and if CCP gets its way more affordable so even smaller alliances can try staking a cliam in null..High sec may burn now and again Hulkaggendon may restart in a big way,bt one thing im sure of .The game will still have lots for us to do including new types of PVP

Godspeed goons.


Um... doen't 71% of the accounts exist in Hi-sec (seems that is the number being post on GD)? Seems they already have that.

I just don't understand null sec players.

71% of CHARACTERS, not accounts.

I have 4 accounts, 6 of characters are currently in high sec, that statistic (that high sec pilots cling to like a life raft) doesn't mean what you'd like to think it means.

CCP should be sued for false advertising. It's really not a sandbox. It's just a shooting game played in null sec by null sec rules... seems reasonable to me. Anyone not wishing to play by null sec rules should leave... adapt or die!!!! ;)

I just don't understand null sec players.

That's really pitiful.

Players in eve play by their own rules. Prblem is A) Reality has it's own set of rules and B) other people playing the sandbox and and will legitimately make you play by THEIR rules.

Don't like it, no problem, to each his own but don't let the door hit your backside on the way out.

You completely went off the wrong way. I see that quite often in your posts. And hostile... wow. you really need to go afk for a while.

I've said over and over that the current sovereignty system is so broken it's actually kind of hard to believe CCP went forward with such a pitiable design to begin with. It doesn't just need tweaked and adjusted, it needs to be thrown out because the entire concept of how sovereignty works in EVE is just laughably bad.

And what you see in null-sec is the natural result of this obviously broken system.

It needs to be thrown out in its entirety and completely re-imagined. Despite its mountains of flaws, EVE used to be a fun and dynamic game where anything seemed possible and players were always coming up with the unexpected. But those days are long past. Now the cycles of EVE are as predictable as the sun, and virtually every aspect of the game has been nerfed, re-nerfed, and pre-nerfed to create an all-too-predictable grind based, intentionally or not, on the banal rock-paper-scissors theory of game design. Uhhhhh.

Rather than help foster a dynamic player vs. player environment of risk and entertainment, the current system has caused player interactions to devolve to the lowest common denominator. B-o-r-i-n-g.

EVE needs an enema. And it needs to go where the crap is spewing from, which is the sovereignty system.

Dear God, you guys can't even handle conflict on the forums. I mean i get not wanting to go to null or pvp or what-not, but damn, is everything supposed to be happy happy fun time with you people?

I mean seriously, that wasn't even me on harsh mode lol.

I simply don't think people your you 2 guys "temperament" are cut out for EVE. Unfortunately, there are lots of your type around, which is what I'll never understand because this great non-pvp game exists and you should go there.....

Everything will work out. Say what you want about the goons but they are good stewards of EVE.

If the "Age of Blue" is bad for EVE it won't happen.

In my personal opinion, this is the answer. I've always wanted to join TEST or Goons (that is no longer my objective, instead I cater to rejects) and I think that if they made some official marketing campaign which consolidated a universal "recruitment drive" between the CFC and HBC - we'd see a good chunk of the high sec community making the move down to get involved in 0.0 warfare.

From past experience, one of the main reasons why the high sec folks don't go down to 0.0 is because they have developed an image of null sec having a really high bar for entry . I've tried recruiting many "carebear" types before, and 75% respond to be with something along the lines of "I don't think I'm ready for Null Sec yet..." Some of them had over 6 months of experience under the belt - will they ever be ready? In actual fact, Null Sec can be enjoyed by week-old newbies. The next step for big alliance success, would be for the super-powers to break down the high-sec consensus that null sec is too scary/dangerous/elite for them.

You are so lost. Hopefully you'll get a GPS.

I just don't understand null sec players.
