EVE General Discussion

You have it backwards. NO ONE chest thumps louder than 'solo' PVPrs (in this game or any game). I mean, some of them are so full of themselves because of their prowess in making other people's ships explode they make this guy look like he's not an arrogant jerk who hogs the ball (lol). The truth is, nothing any of us does in a video game amounts to a hill of beans and everyone knows that...execpt some solo pvprs...and Kobe Bryant

As someone trying to get a feel for what the EVE community is like, I have to say this site does not present it in a favorable light.

Sports are measures of natural ability over trained skill, and actively remove any freedom of thought from the so-called competition.

In short, sports are games for the weak-minded.

Im probably exaggerating in my above statement.

But can you show me a sportsman with something useful or interesting to say?

You lost me at "missions"

Most will never grasp the concepts involved. And id be willing to be 99% of the posters on this thread are doormats. The thing about EVE is most people never really get good at it. They either get more numbers and blob you, or they use a cookie cutter fit that occasionally works. Once you figure out the game though its pretty easy, you just must aspire to do so and not fall into the cookie cutter trap. As it stands its IMPOSSIBLE for me to lose in a 1v1 fight with cruiser sized hulls and below. If anyone wants to challenge this I accept all comers and will have it FRAPSed and posted for all to see how easy people are in this game.

My only sport now is getting into fights that are usually 10 v 1.

The thing to take away from this is learn the game. Don't follow the same cookie cutter crap everyone tells you that you have to do because thats just what it is crap.

Also if you'd like to learn from the best we have a corp in our alliance for aspiring pvpers such as yourself, where you will be able to learn proper gameplay and tactics. Not just the run of the mill "im a PVP god" because i have x amount of logi or im in a blob mentality the rest seem to have.

I learned today that I am not good at PVP. No, actually I'm terrible at it. I don't understand the mechanics, it's difficult to watch modules, distance to ship and overall the GUI is pretty difficult for a beginner pvp pilot. Did I launch drones? Is the ship in range? Did I overheat my module? Did I stop overheating? Too many variables to keep track and in too many places and it moves so fast I forget what I'm doing!

I even had a decent fit and I still can't take down a simple destroyer hull. I got close, but I didn't notice he flew outside my rocket range because I was watching the hull.... bleh. How do you do it? Congrats to those with the patience to learn this, I think I prefer shooters and aiming with a mouse.

PvP solo is like playing eve on Ultra Difficult. Don't do it! Join a fleet. I do better in fleets.

Hulk Hogan created the whole business by himself and that would have never worked without talking.
You can not deny that, at all. Without Hulks Hogan charisma and micskills there wouldn't be this
multi-billion industry, the modern "Gladiators".

The Rock ... one of the best guys on the microphone, electrifying the masses.

CM Punks shoot promos are legendary. This guy is a master on the microphone
and when he talks people always listen, because he always has something to say
and usually it's straight honest, even against his own company or boss.

Don't forget ... wrestling is still a sport. If you don't believe that,
I suggest letting yourself get dropped, thrown around and smacked a few times.

Most people here are weaklings ... I would love to see them go through a bit of pain ...
... just to laugh at them for being tough guys on the internet.


Anyhow. You asked ... I deliver.
