You just lost all the new players they dont care about charts and numbers and statistics And graduate Eve with a doctoral . most players wanna drop and play blow up ships and go to bed after a long day at work or College if this continues this game will die because there will be no new players to replace the old.

Then they should be playing something more "fast paced" than an integrated PvP-economic warfare-sandbox game where success or failure depends on "how well you understand and can manipulate the numbers."

Might I suggest Call of Duty or Battlefield?

Every game has its niche.

I mean it doesn't need to be as slow as it is though. I have played a LOT of MMOs and this is by far the slowest and tedious of them all. It has the feel of an Asian grinder game like what L2 used to be without any reward whatsoever to time and effort put in.


u wot m8. You're totally missing the point of EVE.

For a time. Then you'd get bored, along with everyone else.


than thats when you Monetize the game give players a incentive reason to play and(actually make a living with it )sponsor branding and Worldwide Tournaments so on get their ROI. I m bored already I just want to see the changes that are coming.and see if this playerbase will grow.


Nice idea! You should go to Mclaren Automotive and tell them how much you want them to be Toyota.

So, being a fearless idiot a couple weeks back I decided to poke a brutix with the pointy end of an incursus. (Truth is I'm usually a fearless idiot, just it doesn't always generate results)
Turned out said pilot had friends in system, so he poked back.
Next thing I know there's another brutix and an exqueror joining in the fun.
After a long and delightful battle my "Lusty Chihuahua" goes up in flames. And I do mean a long battle.
Turns out that the second brutix pilot, who was at the time just over two weeks old, had done not only the majority of the damage but also had landed the killing blow.

My point? The guy couldn't have had more than a couple of million SP to his name vs my nine year old character. If more SP equals win, this shouldn't have happened. It's true, he had numbers and luck on his side, but part of that was due to his CEO (the first brutix pilot) not being a complete derp. It doesn't take long to become effective in the game, and working with others helps fill in the gaps where certain skills may be lacking.

That was you getting blobed by really big ships. Point is irrelevant.

Silly person. If they hadn't called in the help the brutix would have died. If I had been in an ishkur instead, all three would have died. By having the newbie come to the rescue the balance was tipped from a sure loss to a difficult win. The point once again is that low SP characters can be relevant and effective if they focus themselves and work with others. (also, 3v1 is a blob?)

Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here.

If you don't know what the reward is why are you grinding?

He makes fun of himself enough with his rubbish poorly thought out ideas, shameless advertising of his extremely poor video channel, language / writing skills of a chimp, childish troll posts and general general all round failings for anyone else to try to make him look silly.

Message to Solops : We the majority DON'T CARE ABOUT HAVING LOTS OF PLAYERS if it means eve is full of attention seeking "FTP" kiddies like yourself. While making eve free to play might very temporarily cause a spike in population, it would almost certainly ruin the game and cause its decline. I know you"re most likely just trolling anyway, but on the off chance you're not you must understand that eve is FOR the long term players, not the "quick action for an hr after work" crowd (although try RvB).

It takes a certain amount of intelligence to troll like Solops and get away with it ...
... and every idiot can write a hatepost like you do.

He does, but doesn't realise.

"I feel worthless, because there are others who are better than me and I can't simply grind to maxlvl so something must be wrkng but it's definitely not my approach to life."

In my opinion Trolling displays the ultimate lack of intelligence, but i'm an adult.

I think the majority would back up most of what i said too.

You may inhabit the body of an adult ...
... but lack the scope to grasp things like one.

Your wrong sense of superiority against trolls proves it....


"Ultimate lack of intelligence"
"but I'm an adult"


In your mind all these people are alike ...
... and in most others minds you're not half as smart as you believe you are.
