I have a Bad Habit. A Bad Habit that has seen me lose enough ISK I could have bought a car irl.
My bad habit is Solo PvP

Youtube doesnt like my music selection and is blocking it in a bunch of countries.

So I’ve been sitting on a half made solo PVP video for a good 8 months, I finally decided to finish It but then my laptops video codecs went to **** and I couldn’t render it out properly. A month later I’ve finally got around to fixing the problems and uploading it.

I don’t usually do much frapsing as the laptop play eve on is very temperamental and activating fraps a lot of the time ends up with unplayable fps or a client crash so this is my first actual video project and the editing is pretty average because of that.

Warning: contains a bunch of frigate stuff, if you are a Buddhist Princess you might not enjoy it

Ships flown:
Ferox (pre buff)
Crow
Sabre
Enyo
Celestis
Arty Wolf
Pre buff coercer (who needs a point anyway!)
Vexor (**** ecm drones edition)
Pre buff Catalyst

Most of this footage is pretty old, all of the destroyer stuff is pre buff. However there is a couple of newer clips I threw in there. I’m pretty sure the only stuff with links is the vexor

Tracklist:
Modest Mouse – Dance Hall
DJ Shadow – Six Days (Soulwax Remix)
Digitalism – Pogo
Blouse – Time Travel
Starfawn – Greenlight (Teeel remix)

Thanks to the guys who donated to my cause: Are34, Bob Shaftoes, Jayarr Altol

Shoutouts to the guys in Rote Kapelle, Exodus. And Tempest legion.

And thanks to all those guys I fought (especially Quake590)

Great video :D

I loved the coercer action. And I miss the old school Coercer of DOOM :(

But WTF with those ECM drones? They seemed to have a much higher jam chance and higher EHP as well in that fight. It was nice to see that the people who used them failed hard.

decent vid mate, not sure about some of the clips, the 2 destroyers and the griffin that never engaged back felt a bit like filler...

those guys in akidagi were so lame, ecm drone whores with that pathetic loki just bumping and too scared to enagage.

anyway, gj

All that praise for so little...

And as for the comment regarding that Loki, he probably wasn't agressing to keep him from escaping the other side, but we didn't get to see that part... there is no evidence to suggest he succeeded in catching him though. Oh, and yes EC drones suck, but you had so much time at the beginning of the fight to remove them from the Rupture. You gambled and lost, or didn't notice.

This is just another 'look at me aren't I great' video, calling people nerds in local and failing pretty miserably as soon as your bonuses are taken away from you. That very last fight in the Catalyst vs Thrasher pretty much sums up your ability as a 'solo' pvper, whether you intended that or not. I too, turn off my guns in fights that last a matter of seconds and every single volley counts.

Righto. This is the kind of criticism i was expecting being my first video.

No i did not get caught in the vexor on the other side by anything, and i did not think seeing me jumping and warping off would be interesting enough to include in the video.

Failing miserably as soon as my bonuses are taken away from me? The only fight with links WAS the vexor fight dude, i stated that in the OP.

It wasnt intended to be a 'look at me im so great' video, but if you think it turned out like that, thats cool too.

The final fight in the catalyst vs thrasher was the final out of 3 fights with a cool russian guy, the first one was included, the second i started fraps late so i ended up cutting it out (but i killed him again). The third fight i did make mistakes. That mistake was i overshot the thrasher like a baddie, the turning guns off wasnt intended, it was just my pc being ********, but thats cool if you think solo pvp ability is about how often peoples guns turn off.

I know the video isnt perfect and has a few faults, i cant edit like prom, i cant pull off crazy **** like garmon. I sat on this vid for many months, mainly because i wasnt totally satisfied with it. I tried to include some newer better footage but its hard when fraps ends up freezing up my laptop 50% of the time. However i decided to just put it out, get some feedback, and then do better next time.

And i guess the final part of this is where i call you out for being a no pvp history posting alt i guess P
