EVE General Discussion

*Snip* Removed reply to an edited out part of the quoted post. ISD Ezwal. I woke up at 3 in the morning (left Teamspeak on at full blast by accident and gotten woken up by excited fleet chatter, lol) and tried fighting a null group twice our size. Almost lost a Talos, but in the end, they wouldn't engage in a proper battle because we had an actual fleet comp and for some reason thought that "fighting in -1.0" is worse than fighting in null. Nullbears won't fight unless it is on their turf where they have the advantage of dropping far more than you can handle.

I was pissed.

I think its a lot more a guerrilla warfare culture TBH.

Now your talking to me, im getting hot on you.

Welp, most stations have rooks in them so solo is ruff doing these days around anything. You get into it and winning and pop shows up a rook and saves him while he pops you off. Bumer!

There are fair fights in eve , they happen on a daily base in fw.


Saying solo fighting is dead is bullshit , saying it's not easy to spot them is another story.

I believe you have missed the point of Eve. Actually Eve doesn't have a "no fight culture". but... as it should be, the cost of fighting is a deterrent to those with less commitment to the understandably heavy cost and demands of battle ... If it's not worth paying the cost of entry into a dire fight a shrewd pilot backs off and perhaps bides his time. Everything in this game is a struggle from day trading and mining, to wormhole exploration and capturing sov. Understanding when to fight and when not to is part of the struggle. I do not agreed with those who seek to make combat the most cost effective pursuit in the game. Where concord fails to stop the careless ganker.. combat costs and necessary prep demands just may. ...that doesn't make the cautious pilot a care bear.... it makes him a winner.

In your case Juno, I totally respect your style of game play.



My issue is with those who talk a big game, think of themselves as being a part of a big game, but when slapped strait up in the face make some excuse as to why they do not want to teach me a lesson. Then they find ways to rationalize it.

Well... not everyone is buying what they are selling.
Some here find them quite transparent, and that is the ultimate topic of this thread... whether people have the reading comprehension to understand it or not.


I mean... I have said it enough times already haven't i?

In my own opinion at least, I am not getting that neut guardians are to blame. Remove logistics ships all together and then neut rr will simply come in the form of dominix's and your typical wambulance triage carrier. I mean, don't get me wrong they don't help. But killing the overpowered guardian (that contains no stacking penalty) won't compel loud mouth's to actually undock and put their money where their mouth is anymore than they do today.

*Snip* Please refrain from personal attacks. ISD Ezwal.

Pvp in eve has changed from the days when i first started playing, i'm not saying thats a bad thing But! i have noticed how hard it is to get a good old fashioned fight in this game now. almost 10 out of 10 i can see how a fight will go before i engage. solo pvp is now like a fart in the wind, it was momentarily fragrant now gone forever.


I do find it hard to get people to engage with me in "solo pvp", and when i do i tend to find the cards are always stacked against me. dont get me wrong ill look at the situation and see if it's worth a punt. But more often than not sadly it's really not. Solo pvp is dead to me personally. No one fights with honor like in the old days. theres is always a gang or logic or hot drop waiting for you to make an engagement and royalty shaft you once you do.



I **** you not i was hotdroped not so long ago by 30 plus and i was only in a drake?



I think the point you are all missing is its all about the isk these days! and that is the truth of it.



isk is king and plex feeds it, i'm truly sad at that.



i honestly thought i would play eve forever now i'm not so sure. :( I do love eve and i loved the relationship the players used to have with ccp. that's now gone to sadly,

That was down to trolls who almost destroyed ccp For REAL almost made em go bust. furthermore what happened to all the players. all i ever see is hate being spewed on these forums. It truly makes me feel sad.

Op starts a truly interesting topic only to get flamed from the get go why?

the first rule of no fight culture, is you do not talk about no fight culture.

the second rule of no fight culture is YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT NO FIGHT CULTURE

I will keep that in mind.
