EVE Reset?

Have CCP ever hinted at a reset of the entire EVE server (assets, skills, players, everything) for a fresh start? I think it'd make things much more fun, the current environment is very ossified and there is a small subset of players who are guaranteed to be on top no matter what by virtue of their enormous amount of skill points... I'm sure a vocal minority of players will find this idea absolutely appalling, due to belonging to the aforementioned group of players.

Haha, totally. Suddenly when everyone is back in t1 frigates the t1 frigate newbies will be a lot more threatening.

If CCP had done the smart thing and made characters bound to the acct that created them, there would not be near as many high SP characters wandering around New Eden.

But a reset? I'm surprised this isn't at 6 pages already of people telling you how ******** you are.

Welp, the response to this idea turned out basically as I had predicted. E.v.e. Online is a videogame, and in videogames you often start over after winning (or in an open-ended videogame like E.v.e., upon achieving some level of cessation of meaningful progress) so you can enjoy a fresh path in a new playthrough. If players can't handle the prospect of this I hate to imagine how they'll deal with the inevitable real-life cessation of their biological functioning that destroys their memories/habits/instincts/etc. and thrusts them back into the world of Samsara in a new incarnation...

what happened to goonswarm? so many funny threads at once. Keep up the good work

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

Damn I hate admitting this with the OP being a goon and all...

... but this thread is solid gold. Love it. Good things are going to happen here I can sense it.

I fully support this idea and only wish we lived in a world in which it could happen.

Ironically this would help goons, who would be able to really leverage all those newbies in a world where even cruisers, let alone titans suddenly become really rare and ~balanced by cost~. Though we might all start spamming titans because, you know, always gotta have the head start on that.

They would do that, if they wanted to kill the game of course.
