EVE General Discussion

I for one am looking foward to these changes. Now, if only CCP would buff the Laser, even the HAM, Legion a bit. Give it some love CCP!

I don't complain nor flow tears. Is not what an investor do. Seems like I misunderstand the whole concept of exploring stated at the fanfest. prior Odisey.

What I was hopping for:
Player built gates & opening of Jove space = new technologies, new space, huge space conquest war. No God intervention - sandbox.

What is all about:
CCP playing dirty.. kinda similar to Incarna and the AUR store. Thinking that the null power blocks are fueling the game and ignoring the rest, those whom never speak on GD like me.. If hi sec was the problem in this game, then I am the wrong person in the wrong place. I did my best to provide a high quality of life to all in my constellation, also to the whole community. See u in SC, same business, same quality.

Thank you

I hear there are Fleet action missions rated level 5 by Concord.
And there are Incursions you can fly.
Pleanty of work for Mission runners your style. Have you tried those?

[edit:]
I like to fly 4th level Missions in BC or if I find some fleetmates in cruisers. You can pick your own challange.
What is the worsed ship you can still handle the mission?
Okay that is not giving you any Progress within authorities, but it is fun. So much fun.
I would like to try to do it in a frigate some time, however I miss the time at the moment.

Seconded. I think the whole purpose of this module is to... encourage ...people to check on their POSes once in a while instead of assuming "it's deep in our space, it's 100% safe". I think the ONLY reason a POS owner should realize that this module was there is when his materials totals don't add up to what he expected, and/or he sees it on the overview... Also apparently it seems like 4 modules around one POS can effectively starve it completely of its materials. Yum. Best 40 million ever spent. Btw did I mention I was selling POS fuel? lol

Also I hope this thing isn't going to be visible across the entire system, like a cyno. Someone should actually need to visit the moon to see it...

*looks around*

eeeeeeeh .....
What du we speak of here?

Breaking into POSes ... that cant defend without a housekeeper.
Hunting Miners so that they flee into Zero ?
destroy the Custom offices as a new kind of stressing highsec pilots and corps?

*looks around again*
why the hell does someone want this?.... oh i forgot... it is nice to atack someone who isn t allowed to strike back.

let me give you another point of View to discuss.

Breaking into a POS to steal production .... okay , but hte POS should be abble to dfend itself. How about a robotic Housekeeper that circles the POS. Once destroid ... he can t do this anymore. But in Highsec you would need War for This.
That would give POS fights a new point of tactics

Breaking in and stealing Ships, or placing Infantery in a fight.....
How about a placed modul that needs 24 hours to do the job. Then the owner would habe a chnce for defence and ONLY when they are inactive it would work. (openeing 1 hour .... do it at 3 aclock in the nigth of that target corp and no one even has the chance to defend)
But stealing ships ... BPO needs another Hack
Hangar Hacks 30 to 60 minutes Lab hacks 60 zo 120 minutes .....
that will be very stressing minutes to the hacker who is sitting in a stationized ship (like Cyno)
hmm are our combatant pilots tough enough for that? or would THEY cry that crocodile tears?

There are Tactics and defend tactics with miners and gankers.
there are Wars .... Sec status and concord ... hidden belts and open belts .... asteroids in misisons and so on.
whe i lived in Zero i missed the missions ... there were only booring Rat hunts ...... endlessly
i missed the chance to miner while reading a book (ore even do the writing of one)
i hated the endlees chat talks who overthrow me with hundres of useless infos und make me doing the job of a secretary
before i would go back to Zero i would land my ship on a nice planet and rise children.
Asteroids in highsec are fewer, smaller , and much cheaper per cicle than those in Low and Zero.
but why don t everyone run those others?
having double income and tripple losses is a loss, at hte end of the bill.
if you want more Mining barges in zero ... make it more save for them ....

Destroind custom offices to build new one and have lower taxes and better income is great .... hmm?
Okay i ll agree with it.......
But shooting down the office wait some days shooting it again .. wait some days shooting it again ....
it can t defend and the knowledge of pissing some working for theyr money pilots at their leg like a bastard dog. whats it for?
yea you can put defense to it... but "small fleets will do guerillia tactics and win against larger defenses." how about defenses of custom offices?

how about you can place a Custom office to
...your own service and it can be atacked through war.
...to the republic and wil lbe defendet from republic fleet. but everyone can atack it for the cost of standing loss 0,1.
.... to concord. you pay 30 milions of isk for the watch over it and atacking it is a criminal act that calls concord. if the payment ends it will go over to republic offices.

how about this ?
no helpless targets .... but challanges.

*looks around* i m shure that there are warriors around .... that fight.... but i m shure too, that there are boars around that only seek for easy targets and won t be named

POSes can defend themselves. You need to hang around POSes more in nullsec/lowsec/wormholes. OK, a POS with no guns can't defend itself. Now, does someone who builds a POS and doesn't assign a single gun to it deserve "special treatment", you think? How about a guy who sets up his POS wrong so it doesn't shoot you while trying to install the siphon thingie? He deserves special hand holding from CCP?

As I see it, it's drop the siphon and get out of dodge ASAP before the POS kills you. What's the problem with that, pray?

Go back to your siphon thingie to take your loot, and get out of dodge ASAP before the POS kills you. Again, I see no problems.

And by the way, if you read the notes, ANYONE can take the contents that were siphoned, including the POS owner. So what's wrong with you noticing a siphon outside your POS and say, anchoring a nice little bubble next to it so you can use it as bait to lure people in for killing by your POS? Nice emergent game-play there.

Oh wait, no, I get it, you're the kind of dude that wants to set up a POS with no guns, fill it up with fuel, and only ever go back to it to empty the silos and restock the fuel. Well guess what, this is exactly the kind of play-style that CCP wants to kick in the teeth.

QFT

Well to complete honest ccp i`m disappointed, but not about the change. i`m talking about WiS and the CQ. I was hoping atleast open that door. Stop splitting eve in 4 games. Just stop it. You people are wasting to many time on those other platform. Please keep focuses on eve not on other games. Eve is not a dying game. Its growing. KEEP THAT GROW.,,,,,

Lets see how this expand will hold. This is a small expand is a small PATCH. There is also no graphics update just some add new stuff and bug fixs and some balance a common patch. CCP please for the love of god release the damn real expands and stop forcing eve in 4 games......

I know you are afraid about what happen, like back then when you release incarnia the first time the anger the disappointment but now its different we have taste the new game just release it already god damn it. Have some balls for ones. And do not release only WiS or CQ like you do with incarnia that was a mistake. Just add also those new toys to, to play with......... If you do that we are all happy and trust me your wallet to.

You're an idiot...Dust 514 is integrated with EVE - which is what CCP has been pushing since its announcement. They just haven't got it fully implemented yet...we're all still waiting for this to happen. We have ammo to do bombardments but nothing to bombard.

Also, WIS is just as much a part of EVE as ships, it was their original vision that we walk in stations and interact. They keep dangling the carrot but have not really done much with it. In the end this lack of going forth with WIS will end up biting them in the ass when games like Star Citizen and Elite: Dangerous have full blown avatar game play.

What is going to happen with regard to POCO's in the PvP controlled newbie systems? Allowed or not allowed?
