EVE General Discussion

You know for new players they COULD add new systems just for them every year that eventually link up to the rest of the New Eden. Could be fun.

This sounds glorious.

Actually sounds a bit like Caprica as well.

Sure the idea has merit...right after CCP fixes that big stack of bugs that makes getting podded more likely.

Can we start with the 1-3 seconds that explosion locks out all screen based UI control?

Where attackers have legal keys or options to lock and shoot pods during that time -- I have always thought that binding warp to locations to keys constituted an illegal macro. Meaning podding is pretty automatic if they got fast lock and warp disrupt.


But I assume the lure of HARDCORE is x10 training speed.

In almost 10 years with two accounts I have earned a few million sp . This proposal would have me unable to fly even a TII frigate let alone TII BS or capitals if I died. How long do you think I would keep subscribing if this happened ?
One can only suppose CCP Fozzy is trolling. Surely no-one employed by CCP could be this stupid - oh wait!!

There is an EVE Hardcore mode.

We call it NRDS.

Ok my 2 cents on this

Isn't there a "natural" limit how many SP a new clone can inherit anyway?

Create a new category for players who own and need such a clone. There is no reason to let a perfectly good frozen and burnt capsuleer corpse go to waste! Harvest for SP! Or skill levels! Or make it a "super end game" thing where you can only siphon SP if you are over that SP limit as well! Introduce a tracker for those that shows randomly one other person of those meeting the criteria and you have yourself a brand new eltist hunting mechanic! I'd really love to see some of the SP-gods battle it out.

I can't believe my eyes on how many experienced players run so scared of Hardcore. Truly yellow streaks down their backs when there is a possibility to lose so much and risk it all. Speaks allot about their true character.

All that "no risk" cloning allows them to keep their fake inflated stature like they really accomplished something other than played EVE longer and remembered to keep their skill training up to date. I guess never really losing when you die in EVE allows for the weak and meek to inherit the Universe.

What have you created today.

This is not 'eve online hardcore', this is 'fregate online' and it's a bad idea.

I can't imagine my old vet 140m sp char beeing reset to 1M ^^
Not because i dont like risk, but because i spend 7years for it.

I can't imagine either, a noob playing a month to have this so cool cruiser, beeing kill at his first visit in low sec sending back to his station and not be able to fly his cruiser again. And after skilling 6month for a BC, same thing ? I don't think people gonna stay long if it's like that.

And serioulsy, CCP Fozzie how do you even beging to start it's may be a potential good idea to discuss ? :facepalm:
I / We really want you to give your point of view in more details please.

The only thing that has 'merit' in this is the fact that obviously at a point in game the lost of one ship is not as revelant at your first 50 lost.
Maybe this idea can lead to a creative discussion on how can we make a shiplost more revelant for any player. But i don't think reseting the SP is a good idea.
