EVE General Discussion

While I agree with the last part, I don't think arenas are the way to go about it. Actually that's the whole premise of the idea in my sig.

Hell No, you should feel very bad for even suggesting something like this. The whole game is a PVP arena....no need for arenas within arenas.

Oh this new and exciting topic again.

so basically you mean: what would please ALL players of this game is BAD.
great point of view.

another option: your "nobody" and "all" words mean just some group of Eve Online players? If this is right then give any reason why you automatically prefer another (let call it "second") group of players (who will not use this feature) to this group (let call it "first")?

I can guess this is because you are from second group who based on killing players from first one. And if they will evade your aggro you will need to fight players from seconds group which will make big risk

I thougth we had alot of arenas?

according to some posters here should we have at least one arena Eve would be dead already.
So nope...

False. Played for a long time in Wow pvp servers where you don't have the choice but to pvp because it goes absolutely everywhere unlike many troglodytes think, you can do Arena in those servers too and you have guys doing it, but say there was less or no pvp outside the Arena is a lie.

People talk about Wow pvp when they never knew anything else than Normal/PVP servers -yeah those you can trigger pvp flags or avoid them- please be my guest to make your new character in a full PVP server and come here tell me how many rabbits you could kill per hour and how fast you got to lvl "whatever crap"

Arena in Eve would be good for several reasons:

• Majority of players are in high sec would want to pvp in some defined environment/rules (like tournament)


• A large part of those players do not refuse to pvp, they refuse the systematic abuse of game mechanics/failures from other players or death traps not worth the effort for an instant loss.


• They want to play their character not their mandatory alt scout, for many of them.

Now, how bad would this be to null or low sec if those players would have some sort of arena?

Simple: It wouldn't change a crap, they will not GO TO LOW SEC OR NULL SEC, thus the fantastic PVP those players provide you guys talk about being already nonexistent, this wouldn't harm the game at all.

We already have an arena, its in Catch.

We call it HED.

If you want consensual PVP with no consequences there already is at least three options:
- Duels on trade hub undocks
- Red vs Blue in highsec
- Blue vs Blue in nullsec

I played SWG before the NGE. The pvp then was fun and much like EVEs untill they added an arena. All of those MMOs you listed do not have the same sort of pvp we have here. EVE is unique and we want it to stay that way and not have everyone pushing a button and wait for a scripted match. I'm sorry you dont like the idea of hunting for targets and risking getting hit by a bigger fleet but thats no reason to turn this game into the same as everything else out there.
