EVE General Discussion

1) Care to elaborate how ship balancing complicates industrial production? Are you referring to ship attributes or industrial/manufacture costs? In either case it is and was a work in progress since a decade ago.


2) It's a huge grind to get out some profit unless you multibox. Period. Would you prefer the time players spend in HS to be entirely assigned to pve activities? Then perhaps you should petition for increasing the duration of the hours in a day from 24 to 48. Also a 14 days week might be a good idea.

Every hs player should quit rl work and make minning or ratting in eve their main reason of living. Perhaps you should consider running for CSM?

Combat sigs drops and escalation rates are subject to ninja nerfs from both ccp and loot fairy with almost each patch; if you ran them you'd know.

Missions payment is double in low and triple in null compared to HS. Working as intended.

Null bears wail and complain their hourly isk ticks when running null combat sigs might equal in bounties with some l4s and/or incursion isk payment. Move on to the null missions then please, they pay at least triple, yeah you won't get that vindi, mach or barghest drop from an eventual escalation but the income is steady.

Both HS incursions and mission can be and are subject to pvp elements such as baiting or ganking. If you feel it is too little feel free to fit a Nado and get to work. No need to mention there are corps who will gladly accept your membership or sponsorship of high sec risk aversion therapy programs.

HS station nerf? Is there any logical argument behind that? Trade is really bad for economy and so it's profit huh?

3) Too easy compared to what? Again no argument behind your affirmation other than personal taste. Some players are cautious when hauling others are not; those who pay no attention very often pay with their ship and cargo, working as intended.

5) LS is the only space where you can get fights relatively easy; solo, small gang or fleet. Please don't attempt to fix what it is working as intended. If there is something that needs looked at is the security status impact given by aggression of neutral ships other than haulers or barges.

7) FW players have no other income than FW plexing and they provide content for everyone looking for pvp in the area. Yeah there are stabbed frigs orbiting fw plexes, so what? They provide the funds for the isk sink that is pvp. Fiddle with that and the pvp experience in FW low will be slowly downgraded to exclusive fights vs frigs and t1 cruisers. Does it really bother you that much not being able to kill that stabbed atron or merlin?
FW players pvp and they do it a lot. Please allow them the "luxury" to afford losing a t2 or pirate cruiser once or twice a month.

I like this

I remember a story where Goonswarm destroyed cementery in space, the people used to defend it for some time. There are no cementeries I know of now.

The absence of Below The Asteroids from the ingame soundtrack is by far the biggest issue and needs immediate attention by CCP.

I don't get to play enough.

I am with you on this 100%. It seems abbreviations are the birthspawn of people too lazy to actually type out what they are talking about. I suppose it makes them feel important?

OR
I a wth u 100% sems abbrvs BS of lzy's.

yeah i wish there was a way around the bottleneck gatecamps, something accessible

All your highsec nerfs hits newbies the hardest. Nerfing missions when level 1 and 2s are entirely crap pay already and 3s are only decent pay if you use a high skilled character. Even 4s are pretty meh pay for newbies currently. Your nerfs would kill those people while the high skilled players will move on to other content to farm. Based on CCP's comments the vast majority of mission runners aren't blitzing and if you're not blitzing in a high end ship you're not making the big numbers some people claim.

Then there's exploration which is usually pretty crap pay in highsec already and you want them nerfed even more. Poor newbies are getting screwed left and right by your suggestions. It's almost as if you want to kill the game by discouraging new players from playing.

Frankly the fact that you believe there is still static ice fields shows that you're 2 years behind the times. You're so out of touch with the game I wouldn't be surprised if you don't actually play it anymore.

i find your 1st point quite true. i mean i understand that ccp values well timed changes to the game, but there is no excuse to not making a players information more useable and accessible so that he can execute those splitsecond decisions ever more comfortably. its all about organizing a players information so its universally useable and accessible. its not like it will ruin the balance of the sandbox if players were more efficient at using information that is already available to them. i think ccp is missing out on really simple ways to encourage pvp and encourage interaction by buffing how we use information.

Post with your main!
