FARMVILLE HAS MOAR RISK THAN EVE ONLINE


There's certainly no popup to warn you and ask your permission for stuff to happen in Farmville, but still I'm afraid of Eve Online so clearly steps need to be taken...

~Andrei.


I think a warning notifiy players that they're about to add aggressive modules to their ship is in order, perhaps with a tick box opt-in so the player understand the RISKS.


I don't see why we need graphics at all, I felt much safer in the days of MUD's, no scary explosions to rattle my concentration on collecting phat lewtz! The whole game could just be warning popups and tick boxes and shiny stuff dangling in front of us all, with no PvP to sully the game world...

~Andrei.


Quoted for truth


I'm not even sure why Eve has to be online with other people who might wish harm on my spaceboats? Why can't I just play by myself, in a dark room or basement perhaps, and toil away for the mere gratification of collecting space pixels without any challenge, which I can use to collect more space pixels in an environment that never changes, with the same spawns and kill orders, over and over until I get sick of the game and leave?

But no! They had to add the Lowe, which kills all of my tanks without receiving any penetration from my tanks because the game's unfair and I can't defend myself because I refuse to think or whatever it is they want me to do...

In all seriousness the introduction of endless pop-up warning messages just serves to protect the large of numbers of idiots who play EVE from the predators, thus ruining Natural Selection, once all challenge and risk has been removed from any scenario any sense of satisfaction and accomplishment is gone along with any chance of long term subscription.


In all seriousness, I'm just glad we made it to page 5 before this thread got locked :)

Cool. So we can actually use this forum as a sandbox now that CCP have decided that sand is too dangerous for the general player base?

See 'n Pee cannot be stopped. Lowe has sucky armor compared to most other heavies so hope the heavies on your team aren't scrublords (they will be.)

If they weren't scrublords, why would they play?

I bought a 52 gallon pump tank at Lowes and I can attest to its overpoweredness. it should definitely be nerfed; no tanks over 20 gallons!

I am always envious to see other tanks on the field with bigger turrets that penetrate deeper than my quaint little turret.

The thing about the Lowes, is that CCP just won't be consistent in it's implementation.

For years people have complained about the Lowes, but as few people used it, CCP left it alone.

Even worse, CCP told people complaining that the Lowes was "working as intended."

"Don't go near people who know how to use the Lowes, it's not hard to work these people out. It's a big ******* thing"
"HTFU, the Lowes is just one part of a deeply sadistic tank simulator"
"Tanks on grass is serious business"
"You're free to use other game mechanics to beat people using the Lowes"
"You realise you can also use the Lowes .... there are no SP requirements"

Then, a bunch of people realised that some people were too stupid to counter the Lowes, and started using it against them.

These people then went (and I quote):

"WAaaaaaaaa .. waaaaaaa.. euuughhh boo bo hooooo! CCP!!! I dun like Lowes!! Why my tanks can be shot by Lowes???? I DUN LIKE READING ABOUT HOW TO USE LOWES MAKE LOWES GO AWAY!"

And CCP said "this blithering idiot is a fool, but a fool and his money are easily parted, so lets keep him around"

And low, the Lowes was removed

Also that's blatantly a "post of the year" contender.

Press like.

Well since we're asking for stuff...Can CCP do something about snipers in Battlefield 3? It's pretty lame that they can one shot me from across the map without me being able to do anything. I should get some kinda warning message asking whether or not I want to get shot.

Well for them to reimburse you, you would have to send a petition. If you want to say EVE is so hardcore then stop petitioning your valid and fair losses

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.

For this sarcasm to be noticed by you, you would have to not be butthurt. If you want to make comments about EVE, get off of our TANKS thread.

I've only been playing for a short time, but I would like to add my voice to CCP to nerf the 38H. How they and Blizzard could allow such a tank into their game is a travesty.

I myself am a new player too and I think the Outdoor Black 650 litre tank deserves a nerf!

Come on Blizzard - how can you allow this tank in our game? I shall be rage quitting if something is not done forthwith!!

I can't believe not one of you has mentioned the need for an Icelandic tank nerf. I know CCP tend to choose a side they like and run with it but how bias they are toward tanks from Iceland is staggering.

Oh, and they should just delete CCP WoW and never look back.
