EVE General Discussion

Agree, hence the pvp-arena, full nullsec creation comments. Pick the sandbox, or pick the themepark. CCP sits on the fence, and pisses off either end of the spectrum, because it's not the game each side wants.

He'll be back.
The real un-sub'ers are those who quietly cancel and vanish without a word. A couple years pass, and someone says 'hey, whatever happened to so-n-so?' But they're gone, and no one knows when or why.

You did not actually articulate your problem in any way.

Also, you mentioned that you had made several attempts to build an alliance and claim sov - a strictly Nullsec activity - and then went on to complain about how Nullsec dominates the game.

It seems like you're basically saying that you're bad at the game, and it's someone else's fault.

There is a difference between overcoming adversity, and banging your head against the wall because you can't walk though it.

Your statement is an over simplification.

I can't possibly be oversimplifying anything because, again, you didn't actually articulate any problem. You just whined in a quasi-intelligible fashion, leaving the reader to fill in the blanks.

What we can deduce from your post:

1. You tried.

2. You failed.

3. You blame parties other than yourself for failing.

That's actually all of the actual content of your post. The rest is infantile, aimless whinging.

The OP does raise the interesting question of what form "small holding" might take if CCP ever tries to make that possible.

At present the moment someone drops an SBU or TCU, they are practically guaranteeing half of nullsec visiting their doorstop within hours.

You cannot beat USA, China and Russia at the same time and take their land with small army. I think that you set your goals too high. If you want your own "land" you have to cooperate with the largest alliances OR make a bigger army (WH is also the answer - no hot drops and you can partially "lock" your WH - power of the even largest and strongest alliance is crippled to its knees here if you are doing it right). Simple equation.



Eve is not dominated by null. If that would be truth, then we would not see constant btching from null-bears about "hisec needs to be nerfed" and vice versa.. There is a balance between those two worlds. Null has monopoly on many raw t2 materials like Technetium, hi-sec is industrial superpower.



CSMs are elected by players = null-bears are more united that's why they win every elections. Hi-sec bears are mostly individuals (like myself). Nobody pushing me to null-sec. I found myself several activities that can be run in hi-sec and they are quite profitable (no, not boring L4s), sometimes i go ninja rat to low/null, because i found that being "intruder" in deep alliance null-space is quite exciting. No I'm not alone, I'm in several groups and have lot of friends. Sometimes we go roam, sometimes we just chat. We are just individuals in several small indie corps. That is the beauty of SANDBOX. You don't need to be in large alliance to run your own business. (like Switzerland)



Then perhaps you failed at understanding EVE. And that is sad for 7 years old char.

I don't get it. When I discovered I couldn't take SOV with my small band of marauders I simply stopped desiring it. I took a moon instead. I went to lowsec and wspace and sought my own fortune. Solar and PL often roam our turf and think the place is theirs. But it's us out there really looking to ruin your day, kill your POS, blow up your POCO, murder your ship and get rich over the loot you drop. We kill the weak, the daring, the stupid, the brave, pretty much everyone that impedes upon our territory, can be countered, and is worth the sec hit. So my Alliance name isn't shown in miniscule print in the top left corner of your screen. Big ******* deal. I'm having a blast keeping what I can hold with this ragtag group of villains. Why didn't you ever settle for something of a smaller scale?

I didn't know it was "Nerf Null Buff High Threads" Season already...

You forget this is a PvP game.

PvPers ***** and whine about everything...especially at any perception of the grass is greener on the other side.
