Can't believe how many CSM/CCP employees want a theme park

Lately? Mostly hi sec, WHs and low sec. I still have some stuff in NPC nullsec but no time to play long enough to make it fruitful for me.

So, what would that mean to me? I want EvE to be EvE in hi sec too, that's simple. Each place its dangers and its potential. Hi sec less dangerous, OK, but not SAFE.

It means you'll adapt and will not have a problem.

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

The themes are always nice if they are new tools for the players do what ever they want to do with them.
I will not claim that the new tools are good or bad but I see some of the latest additions to the game as "new tools".

This is a sandbox, old or new, the tools must work and be interesting to use.
If there are x devs doing this, y devs doing that, I don't get it why is it not possible to have a small team dedicated to the improvement of the old tools, launching small updates from time to time, they can even have their own dev blog.

What I get from the CSM minutes is that a fix to some of those tools will take years, you have to have a theme, and that theme MAY fix a very tiny part of those tools, and according to the timeplan, those same tools will take years to be "better".
Not sure if this the way to go.

Whitehound is one of these people who join a PvP game then gets angry when PvP happens to him. Or a dedicated troll.

He lost a one billion ISK pod to the New Order just recently. I think he may be angry because PVP happened to him.

That's probably a lot of ISKs to you, isn't it?


Whitehound has started overheating his damage control in this thread.

A billion isk is a lot to lose as a result of stupidly afking in highsec because you think (or wish) it was 100% safe


LOL.

He didn't need that pod anyway.
What a card.

Removing combat PVP from highsec while leaving every other variation of PVP is absurd and goes against everything CCP presents Eve as being.

If the problem is that aggressors in highsec wars seem nigh invulnerable, it's because there are too many corps full of incompetent, ignorant players who don't understand how the game works.

Reading the minutes, I'm astonished to see so many people in favour of completely removing non-consensual pvp from highsec. Claiming that wardecs are unfair, grief-play, claiming that there's no "risk" to the aggressor (how can they bemoan the lack of risk, then suggest removing all risk from highsec as a solution?), that they should only be mutual, etc...

when has eve ever been that kind of game?


Meanwhile, over in FW, they may as well be handing out carnival tickets. What's your point? Everything is already a theme park. There's the the FW roller coaster where a handful of RPers chase around farming frigates, or you could watch the nullsec blob warfare circus in the center ring, or hang out at the hisec mining cotten candy booth, or join in the lowsec pirate whack-a-miner game, and Incursions are the free ISK giveaway to those with enough SP to flex around. It's been nothing but themes park shows for a long time. The difference is this: In EvE the rides sometimes crash into each other.

There was a time when the Devs actually used to chat to its players, there was a time that this games vision was a true sandbox....it is starting to seem some have forgotten what this game is about since it seems to be heading towards a theme park...

All it takes is for someone to allow its Dev to change the vision of this game and put in things that do not belong in a sandbox and the next thing you know it is a dead vision and maybe even a dead sandbox.

There are a few new sandbox game coming out soon, i would hate to see this community move on because of silly choices but i fear if this game starts to head towards a theme park, that's just what will happen.

So... people read the Dev blog and actually believe the assertion made in the original post....

You people amaze me sometimes... and not in a good way.

The OP's "assertion" is that 2 devs and 3 CSM members think it would be Eve-like to remove highsec wardecs because mean people use them. Highsec whinebears now smell blood in the water and if we don't knock this crap on the head quickly it'll get to the point where their expectation gets so great that CCP will cave to them. Yet again.

No, your rights end in optimal+2*falloff

This.

We all get what was said in the CSM minutes have little to do with this thread. This is us stamping out the whiney minority who want to NGE EVE so they can have their 100% safe PVE game that they will then quit several months down the line for another game because they are bored.

Yes, exactly. And you can watch all them gankers cry, too. The thread has turned a bit into a "Who is Who" of gankers anyways, like theme parks are now real.

CAPSLOCK LOL

You're quite the embarrassment, considering that you have nothing that backs up your display of arrogance.

Don't ask me to stop you from being embarrassed. If you feel embarrassed by what you do then stop doing it.

Talking about arrogance, it's nice that feeling does not pay taxes yet, you'd get more than you could ever pay Lol
