EVE General Discussion

Hmm, I think you are just going about it wrong OP, try to broaden your scope, do what you find fun.

New Players should not be able to PVP or be able to shoot at stuff for the first 2-3 Months?

I would left the game way back then if all i could do is mine and mission. Been shooting at people since day 1 in this game. Yes I lost ships the first few months but I killed alot more than I lost.

Your attitude is wrong which is why you are complaining. And the fact that your corp is part of alliance tells me that the corp leadership is shyte. Unable to rally the members into a cohesive fighting force allowing their members to flail about and get shot at with impunity. This is a failure of people able to manage their corps properly and keep their members safe. or atleast able to protect themselves.

Your gripe is also the reason why many new players actually stay in the game.

They have been added to my list for a future wardec.

You can also try faction warfare. This gives you plenty of PVP opportunity and has fleets forming up all the time to take on the opposing faction.

I'm glad I'm not OP. We got dec'd 8 times in a row when I was a noob in a noob corp. We sucked it up and still learned the game and found new ways to make it fun. It's all attitude really - and OP's atttitude tells me he's not going to be around for long.

That was the point i was trying to make ^^. I really like the ppl in corp. Good ppl. Fun to play with (when possible) etc. I love the pve elements. PVP is probably fun to. But not what i want to do at this point in time. The things i do like to do, gets impossible to do. Offcourse i can leave corp. Join NPC corp and do it again, but then i wouldnt have the same people to chat/play with etc. I could try joining another "newb" guild but whats to say the same **** dosnt happen, from what ive understood this kinda thing is really common. And as ive said, i do really like the game when i can play it. And when it was just 1 corp at war with us it was managable. With 2 corps every new player in corp is hunted 24/7 almost.

And im fully aware that its how EVE functions. And its not a failure of the game for most players that play this game. What im trying to point out is simply the best parts of EVE (at least imo) quikly becomes extreemly hostile to new players, not only because of SP difference/ISK difference, but also understanding of mechanics etc.

Ah, I see, the attitude should prove something, but know what ?
Flaming a pretty ignorant newbie doesn't prove anything and me answering to it does not either.

OP ?
Some people are mean cunts in this game, they are on it because it allows them to be.
Find a way to do what you like in EVE, look and remember who wrongs you, get ready to pay them back tenfold.

And if you're not ready for that, then go give your money to another company for your online entertainment.

I mentioned in original post. You should be able to waiver the protection. Good for you you like PVP and been doing it from the start.


Theres not alot of new players to eve, there never has been. Except recently now with the steam sales.



As ive said most of the players in corp are newbies. Even if we all grouped upp at once (not possible because of time difference) we would most likely not win.


Your last sentence is really additon to is really nice. Got to laugh well at that one. You don't like what somone write so your going to do what im complaining about even more ^^. Nice to know the LOL community is ******* AWESOME compared to some games out there haha.

find a corp in your timezone if you want more organization, when you find one, do some background check on them. check their war history and killboards. also, research research research.

I started playing Eve by the end of last October and my experience and understanding are different than yours OP.

Just because all content isn't spoon fed to you within the first month does not make you some kind of victim to a broken concept developed by CCP. You place yourself within a conceptual trap by generating some kind of standard that should exist for your gaming experience.

You are not forced into joining a corp and should understand the risk when doing so. This risk generates a very real reward. Honorable to those who are willing to not tear up over the possibilities. However this does not break the game. An 11% tax is incredibly reasonable for your lack of participation within a community-driven game while still enabling you to do everything any other corp player is able to do (with the exception to open pvp).

I've been in two player corps and 4 wars- which account for about half the time I've been in Eve. I've still not been shot at or placed into a dangerous situation vs another player. Not once.

Eve has flaws but your reasoning has failed you.

You have to realise that EVE gameplay is very different from real world experience. This game is challenging because it allows scammers and gankers and rewards them as long as they don't break the intended game mechanic. Players can make good amount of isk by doing "bad" things. Economic incentive is a positive reinforcement to encourage people to repeat their behavior. So you will always meet these people no matter what you do or where you go. They are part of the game and you cannot avoid them. What you have to do is to learn to deal with them. Complaining them is useless. It is part of the funs to overcome these challenges or, if you like, to take advantage of these opportunities.
