EVE General Discussion

Since it is expensive to do cheap PVP, hence even to lose any ship, people wil stop trying to lose their ships.
this all will stall the economie in EVE, since we depend on mass consumption.
People who think to make the market less feeded are wrong, you are better of selling 4 ships then to sell 1 ship,
so people would not care that much when they lost a ship.
cheap ships and fitting would benefit everyone, why would you want to sell a 50million ship to a guy and blow him 1 time out the sky, when you can sell him 4 for that price and blow him 4 times out the sky for example.
Traders can have fun to see their big isk wallets grow, but people who like to wreck ships for the fun cant have fun because they are worried everything is expensive and they can not replace it cheap.
Buy a ship in high sec verry expensive to see it blown up in low and nul 10 min later is not gona send people into low and nul.





1 flood the markets with materials
2 build many ships
3 buy cheap
4 wreck them all = win win no feelings hurt, because it was cheap

How to make people not scared to lose ships in EVE. Well there's an S. And then an R. And then a P.

What did I just read?

When most people realise that if you are in a ship you worry about losing then you are doing it wrong. Always keep enough in your wallet to instantly replace the ship you are currently flying then you stop worrying about it and if you can't afford to replace it instantly then you shouldn't be flying it.

As the Goonie up above said there's also SRP but that usually means you are bored to tears clicking F1 but it's valid way of no fear pvp.

I smiled. I think you're cute OP

Now for the real super useful reply:

"Don't undock what you can't afford to lose"

Soon you'll be undocking all kinds of nasty stuff, without a care. As a matter of fact, given time, you may end up losing stuff you cant even dock. Right Reaper? :P

Hence the word "usually" I do wish people would understand what's been written before they jump to conclusions.

Welp, I'm convinced.

*tears up his economics degree*

Protip: less consequences does not make for more fun.
Humans need play and danger, civilization offers them work and safety.
In EvE there is little civilization to speak of, the environment spawns infinitely and there is no need to consider non-combatants like pregnant women and children. I know your avatar has a mad rack but every target in New Eden is gender neutral, ultimately.
OP's brain fart made it to the screen.

4/10 not bad, not bad at all

The reasoning here is a tad convoluted, OP. I hope you think about this:

If you did not care about losing your ship, you wouldn't bother to try to become a skilled capsuleer. It would make no difference to you. You could just pilot a noob ship to Hek (for instance), pick a fight and get smoked. A new ship with 1 Veldspar (bows in Chribba's general direction) would appear in station and whammo you'd be set to go out and
do it again.

ALL that training time. ALL those MILLIONS for those high-end skill books would be pointless. The market you seem to care about would be pointless, too. You don't need to buy anything to go out and just lose ships. So, you see, maybe at the time you thought a stroke of brilliance came your way, but on closer examination, not.
