How to fix this game?

EASY


remove 30% of 00 space

remove 50% of wormhole space
remove all Thera nonsence whs


and ofc make PLEX drop.

it's hard to believe how this game is not envolving, player numbers not growing for 10 years. It's getting hard to get a fight even in hot spots of low sec... or at best you just fight same 10 people day after day. I'm not saying EVE is dieing but here made some serious mistakes expanding game space, but not getting more people to play this game. idea was good, but that just didn't worked, so maybe time to FIX it ?

And BOOM. Problem(s) solved !

Thank God for Chatelaine Superior.

... Wait. Are we being trolled here ?

Here comes a time, ganker,

When blingfits cease to sparkle,

When hermophite looses its luster,

When the station hangar becomes a prison

And all that is left is a capsuleer's love for his fedo.

Ok, fly around, make some serious travel from one galaxy corner to another. You gonna find 9 systems empty from 10. Yes, deep space is cold and empty how it should be, but is this fun?

Sigh.
You'd be surprised, but some people like population density as it is.

Now, people who are actively looking for a fight will still base in hotspots and get fights regardless of whether there are 10 or 10 000 systems around. If they don't, well - even a single station can accept unlimited number of players and there will still be ways to hide regardless of the size of the game.

There may be many reasons you don't get fights, but sheer size of EVE isn't one.

Just remove all of highsec.

Like, I mean if we are going to go down the path of suggesting ways to increase population density in other areas of space by forcing people closer together, just remove highsec and shift 75% of the population into other people's faces.

Problem solved with just about as much success.

here we go again....Roll

just remove highsec and all will be good

and if you're having issues getting a fight then you're doing it wrong and should come to a real lowsec system instead of moaning on the forums with a blank killboard

Right now New Eden is created to have 100k players online.

Do you guys remember the time, before adding WH space and some new useless 00 regions, when a raven was hunting NPCs in asteroid belt in most of the systems. When roaming was huge part of game and it was fun becouse you was getting fast into action? I haven't seen this for long time. Yes game is changing, but not player numbers.

We have barely 15k players online average. I don't play others mmorpg, my friend told me LoL has like 5 milions suscribers.. what da hell? maybe becouse you get insta into action in LOL? Log in and action! You dont need in LOL camp gate for 5 hours to kill a newbie who come here my mistake? Do you guys saw EVE ads somewhere, where games are adversiting? I haven't. I guess i just don't get, but why this awesome game not envolving in player numbers? Whats the reason?

Milla Jjovovich, am getting fights all good, but i spend really alot of time in this game, this is why i get killmails. And i understand, here are succsesfull corporations/alliance who are perma moving into hotspots to get into action, but this is just a little part of players. Most of players miss action becouse gamespace is too huge, you can lock yr self in wormhole alone with 10 accs and what's minus 10 chars online who aren't any way involving in PvP.

Where are you getting these numbers from? Are you rolling some kind of fuzzy dice or do you have actual statistics to back this u?

Remove everything and watch numbers dropping to a bunch of griefers and then they leave because of lack of content (people).

You sound sincere so have my word:

You just can't evoke a problem, throw a couple numbers, give a lapidary solution and capitalize "EASY" as a punchline, and call it a day expecting to be taken seriously.

Space is cold and empty and sad as a cold and empty panda ? Find the numbers, find the people, make said numbers and people talk, detail your view, compare and debate, open a blog, advertise it, posit solutions while inviting for discussion.

Then postulate for CSM. Fight for it.

Then once elected, join the political weasel block-biased profiteering bunch and forget all you've been fighting for in favor of sitting in a comfy chair while eating icelandic sushi while scoffing at space-peasants.

(... That's how it goes, right ? Some citation needed here.)

Well... am just a ***** looking for attention Blink Also i undertsand i don't gonna make any difference.
But am glad people like you who know how all works heard my opinion. No trolling here, thing is.. maybe not right here till end, but some part of my POV is very sensitive and i guess some players have same feelin as me.

maybe its at a stage in the games evolution that NPC AI helpers would be a good thing . they would come at a maintenance cost to the player ofcourse .i mean nobody wants eve to die a slow lingering end , revitalising the economy with player owned AI might save it .

yea i know suggesting this 6 years ago would have been dumb but maybe not so much now

because the veterens have gotten older and the new gamers dont see eve as cool anymore . retention is the key to CCP future now and if youve got old players thinking man i just dont want to haul this .......... anymore . keeping them subbed cause they can delegate would be a good thing.

I do, guess what the forums where filled with?
Let me give you a hint:

- EVE is too small
- We need MORE space

Pleasing one hand displeases the other and visa versa.

Well, there were helpers that were coming with considerable maintenance cost, then CCP decided to ban some of them. So this probably isn't direction we're heading to.

Put together a well researched proposal, present it in the proper forum and it may get taken seriously, this post is neither of those things.

PLEX already drop, in the wrecks of the people dumb enough to undock with them in cargo

That's misleading at best, while figures aren't available for the last couple of years the overall subscriber trend has been towards growth, Eve is one of the very few games that enjoyed year on year growth for close to a decade.

Come to highsec, plenty of targets here.

Yes you are, you've tried to hide it a poorly written post but you're essentially saying that Eve is dying because X.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
