EVE General Discussion

Yeah!

Yeaaaahhhh!!

The thing is null sec has been there and done that because the game didnt start out with those things. Titans werent even introduced until very late in 2005 and it took months after that for the first one to be built. As for jump bridges I would say the introduction of jump freighters had more of an effect on logistics than jump bridges have ever had even though they werent introduced until very late in 2007.

Lol this post just keeps getting better and better. There seems to be a clear divide between "L33t PVPers" and "carebears" each one hating the other yet they both need each other to survive. PVPers need ships and fittings and buy them from highsec carebears who use that isk to build more ships for the PVPers.

The real problem is not carebears being afraid of null. It's that null bears have NAP so many alliances they almost don't have anyone to fight so come to highsec and kill carebears while raging on the forums about null being boring. Why should carebears move to nullsec when they get plenty of PVP in highsec?

This has kind of been my whole point from the beginning. Why has nullsec not formed stable, well-developed economies? It seems to me that nullsec is sparsely colonized because everyone there is seemingly only interested in yarr, but maybe it's because hisec is more stable? What can we do to balance the two and give more rounded gameplay to nullsec? It's lame when everybody in hisec is a carebear and everyone in losec is a pirate. That's the intrinsic problem.

The other part of it is that there is a culture of people that only want to focus on PvP and they want to have lots of non-PvP victims to claim as part of that. As getting your assets destroyed is not in the interest of everyone else interested in other aspects of the game, there's a conflict of interest. I'm interested in planetary development and exploration, but I'll never risk going to areas in which that is profitable unless I have assurance I'm not going to get jumped in a ship that can't fight back or hide.

I thought thats what wormhole was sort of supposed to fix, but maybe not.

Deklein has less manufacturing capacity than certain single systems in hisec, and we can't build enough T2 ammo to cover a full maelstrom fleet's consumption. There's no point in doing it, since you can make it much easier and cheaper in hisec (and export to nullsec) than you can do natively in nullsec.


I guess that means hisec's not for you either, then. vOv

These topics remind me of the old TV shows where they divide a room with a line down the middle and say "That half is yours and this half is mine. Stay off my side!" It seems to me that the miners in Hi-sec want a line drawn through eve where they can say "Stay on your side of the room or I'm telling mom!"
In regards to getting ganked in high sec, I see one very simple solution. Leave your NPC corp and join one that can run escort service. Last time I looked, NPC's didn't send out an escort for you.

Thank you for your time,
Sam

Most freighter were not killed in an alpha strike either...

I think iif freighter ganks are more common today, its only because CCP has stated they're nerfing it already and people want to get em while they're hot.

Next patch there wont be any suicide ganking really. There will just be griefing via warpstabs and buyable killrights, assisted by none other then concord.

Of course that'll get patched away as well quite quickly (if not before release), and you'll finally have your highsec land of perfect safety. Eve will die out shortly after everyone realizes its become a collectors game instead of the game of risk it was founded as.

Only when it's "my" ship blowing up. When it's "your" ship blowing up, everything's peachy :)

DAMN

HARD!

I quit.
