EVE General Discussion

Hello all,

I'm a returning on and off player and I have established why I struggle to fully immerse myself within the EVEiverse
I must point out that I am a mission runner and don't particularly know or want to about pvp aspects tbh but this is just and opinion.

To me as of right now there is no engrossment in missions. It's a load of text, one place, one objective come back.
Now this suggestion is probably more suited to Story-line missions as to not affect isk/h for everyone. But does anyone feel like a few game engine cut scenes or just camera changes with focus on warp ins add a bit more drama? EvE lore needs to be pushed more in these missions.
For example; the reinforcement warp in. Right now it's a little blue message and some red blips appear.
An improvement to this in my eyes would be to have the camera focus on the entry point of the group and zoom in to see the bubbles and see ships actually appear. This would (hopefully add more drama and depth to the gameplay)

Also almost all green, blue and popup mission text is someone talking to you or your on board computer giving you infomation (which has a voice)
wouldn't these feel better being utilized with some extra voice acting? Because I have only noticed them long after the mission was over because I'm in fleet or corp and don't care about local as much mid mission

Missions themselves could be overhauled easily as well.
Missions with Parts should be one mission with a progressing story-iline maybe involving comms to the agent to report developments (Ie you've collect and read it and reported back) give the next objective. This would add a sense of progression and real contribution to the cause.

And side missions would be a good addition to get more in depth. Bringing actual lore, back stories and reasoning into play.
Again this makes the player feel like their actions have actual contribution instead of just watching their isk counter go up

And a final suggestion would be to be part of npc fights more instead of inspecting aftermaths all the time, we should be have mission where we need to be part of an npc wing and do battle.

Thanks
(I am prepared for the shots to be fired but this is just an opinion and a realization as to why I can't stick with this game

Is that your contribution? Wow it's not like I posted suggestions followed by reasoning and rationality but sure add an irrelevant ride along suggestion and a snarky remark about your sig ;)

I get you think PvP is better and that is your personal opionion, I respect that but unfortunately I am not here to blow up others unless I have to I am far more interested in the lore and the story etc but the content to provide this in game is lacking

.......

As apparently the OP is not interested in a civil pro/contra discussion, this thread gets a lock.
In other words, answering someone who does not agree with you with personal attacks, is not the best way to keep a discussion going.

The Rules:
3. Ranting is prohibited.

A rant is a post that is often filled with angry and counterproductive comments. A free exchange of ideas is essential to building a strong sense of community and is helpful in development of the game and community. Rants are disruptive, and incite flaming and trolling. Please post your thoughts in a concise and clear manner while avoiding going off on rambling tangents.

4. Personal attacks are prohibited.

Commonly known as flaming, personal attacks are posts that are designed to personally berate or insult another forum user. Posts of this nature are not beneficial to the community spirit that CCP promote and as such they will not be tolerated.

No I am not. I already gave you my reasoning for why I know: This suggestion comes up all the time and nothing is ever done about it. There are currently probably 5 or more threads open with similar suggestions.

Sir Ezwal, you forgot to push the lock button. Please see tuxford for instructions.

When did I say can't?

To me it is a supply and demand thing and its all about demand (but a nicer way of saying demand)

For the record though PvP is nothing like PvE I really don't get how it can be a transitional phase. The fits are different the tactics the ships and the situations. There is nothing from learnt from PvE that can help in PvP

I completely agree with that. If any changes are made to the missions it should be that they are made to require you to fight the NPCs like you would a real person. That way PVP wouldn't be this unreachable milestone to those that don't understand it.

If you want to get your feet wet without a whole lot of risk, look into faction warfare. It is a nice balance between PVE and PVP. You can make lots of isk that will easily cover the ships you will inevitably lose.

Meet people and talk with them, especially the ones that kill you.
