In EVE, you aren't the "Hero", you don't get Main Character immunity.

You're one of many, even among demigods.

If people want a game to fluff their ego, then pretty much every other game exists for that purpose. But in EVE, you aren't special.

So yes, bubbles.




Of course of course. Another avenue to point out that which was already obvious. Thank for dose of "nobody is special" agenda today. if you knew me personally you would know I'm the last person to tell that to.

Now, about that completely unusable spaceport where it won't matter if you have an ego or not....

So yes, nobody will care and it'll be the parking lot from Dawn of the Dead where occasionally some living flesh shows up, gets swarmed, eaten, and then the zombies flip back over to their other monitor to continue on with whatever other game they were playing.

Well someone moved the topic into talking about themselves. Nice.

I am sure Thera will slow down after a spell.

You're acting like it's supposed to be Provi or some other NRDS idiocy.

It's not.

Decided to take a peek in an Interceptor earlier today and the bloodbath didn't surprise me all that much. Once things cool down it could be an interesting place to live or visit whenever you get a connection. Though, I have to say, as long as interdiction spheres are allowed there I don't think it's ever going to be the 'Jita without CONCORD' CCP has envisioned. Because any trader with half a braincell is going to stay far far away from that place.

It's not PvE friendly, but it's Thera-PEUTIC! BWAA HAAAA....ahem. Big smile

Okay okay. I do get what he's saying about "let's pretend" then ... let's not. Let's pretend there's boucoup activity, then make it function like an abandoned silver mine in New Mexico. I mean, even the snob posters lecturing about what EVE is and ain't sort of leave out EVE is AND ain't - all at the same time - making these declarations of fact from on-high, (declaring there is no "on-high") as vapid as the non-eventful event of a busy as bees but fast asleep....yaaAAAAWWWnnnnn....

Must be some kind of combination sci fi ghost story some kid always wanted to write....
...now he's an adult and owns his own corp.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

NRDS never crossed my mind on the subject of Thera. Thanks for bringing that up though. I cannot see where it could work for a large system with so many ways in and out. So we can discard that.

All that I have concentrated on is the mechanics. And that which can be locked down and death camped will be. You can't anchor bubbles, but dictor bubbles are possible. Even if we see it as some kind of PVP zone, it's going to be a crappy PVP zone when the stations are death camped.

So it's not PVe friendly. That's a given. Unless PVP is "get bubbled and die" it's not going to be PVP so much either. Meaning that, like the Nestor, it's more SoE content for which we have to find a use. And an SoE ship with me flying it is the last thing that system is ever going to see.

In other news... fedos escaped from their holding cells in Jita and are now running rampant throughout the 4-4 station, eating anything and everything, but mostly favoring Tritanium. This will make tritanium prices skyrocket, so according to Jim E. Jones, now is the time to sell your stockpiles before the fedos can devour them.

Now to Dee Dee Packalotte for the weather...

I don't see how a few dictor bubbles will stop... Oh, wait. You're looking at this from the assumption that people are solo, aren't you?

Another "agenda point" of yours.

Where did I make any assertions on the status of the players? First some presumption of NRDS, not the "hurf blurf you should not play alone" track.

Your opinions do not have to be your religion. Did you know that? Or did those military dentists work you over again?

Me too. Nice avatar, btw.

I knew this was going to happen. CCP needs to put some insanely powerful SoE guns on those stations. If you can't undock there's no draw to Thera. "Stations" as a concept a reduced to being theoretical. Everything that would make me want to live there is negated by perma camps. They WILL be perma camps. It's just not a tenable lifestyle.

Sorry CCP. You f***ed up one little thing on this one.

Now lets see if they fix it.

I would imagine that Thera is probably the single worst place in Eve to try PvE. I'm not even sure it's possible to survive an attempt to PvE there, and certainly running +EV is out of the question.

I've got a bottle of whiskey and a new mission. Off to Jita with me for the sweet sweet fedo lovins.
I will save the tritanium with the badtouches!

Everyone will forget about Thera in a week. It's an inconvenient lowsec system, basically. It requires probing, risk, and there's nothing there. It needs to be CONCORD policed to become any type of mos eisley of EVERoll (yes, highsec).

Thera is barren. Players just haven't figured it out yet.


It doesn't neccesarily need Concord. A few sentries blowing up dictor bubbles and hostiles at the stations would do a lot to make camping more difficult while still not making it high sec safe.
