EVE General Discussion

We have more than enough industrialists that arn't carebears to live quite happily.

Please don't , old eve is awsome in my mind and actually replaying it would show it was only awsome in my mind and nothing more.

No just the community was (or at least more friendly and less f*ck tards)

Yes and thats going to be it death! seriously need to wake up, this was ok 5 years ago, no now. Why do you think that every single other MMO doesnt do this...eve is saturated and you are allowing just a few to control the whole game and not letting newer players not from 2003 to have the same chances

why do you think subs have gone down, new player retention is pathetic? if you dont change and stop being stubborn, can see you no longer have a job, cos the vets are getting bored and the new players and leaving, therefore eve will be non existent. Give it what 3 years max...they way its going.

Having multiple servers isn't a bad idea. If they were to do so, they should leave TQ alone. But create a new server, everyone starts from scratch, everything is 0.0, and anything goes...
-Edit-
No NPC space either...

Reality doesn't work like you think it does. If you're a loser or a nobody here, you're going to be that on a new server too. The limiting factor isn't your character, it's you as a person. The current powerblocks didn't become what they are just because of chance. They became that because they are better at this game then the rest. On the new server they know how to run things and have the organizations to make it happen on day 1. They have the numbers and knowhow to roflstomp you from day 1. Point being a new server doesn't solve your problems, it just turns back the clock a little and creates new ones. The same issues that the current server has will also be on the new server.

Every problem you can think of with the game can be solved on TQ. Your solutions aren't going to do that, because you're trying to limit social ties of groups who function outside the game by using in-game mechanics. All you would achieve is force people to use alt alliances to manage their holdings. This doesn't solve anything. It just creates a pointless hurdle for the players and does nothing to improve the actual game.

Is this another of your "personal opinions" or an official CCP statement?

I sometimes wonder what a PvE shard would be like. For this thought experiment we can consider this to be a shard set up by CCP, another company that bought rights to Eve, or another production house that made its own Eve like game.

First, there could still be PvP space combat, it would just be consensual. Duels, or mutual wars. Also Pvp activities like the market and exploration would still be in the game.

Next, the economy needs a driver. With fewer ships exploding to players something needs to create demand for products and keep the ISK flowing. Most likely this would be ramped up NPCs. In a mission you would sometimes get a super spawn sufficient to stomp you. POSes would get attacked by NPCs. The POS revamp would be interesting here as part of it is allowing many more structures to be built, all stuff for NPCs to attack.

Then there is Sovereignty. It would have to be based on something other than blowing up other peoples stuff, like how good you are at fighting off the NPCs and doing industry.

The best part of something like this is it would give all those players who do not like non-consensual PvP a place to go. The current game would be cleansed.

The new server would be for people like you!


Also, I can't believe some people actually think this is a good idea.

Nice try at trolling, but still not very good. I'll give you 2/10.

I'll let that post stand, as it's a valid question, but be aware that if you continue to choose to try and troll members of CCP or ISD, you're walking down a road that will end up being a problem for your ability to post.

For reference, and an answer to your question, take a look at the CCP Website.
