I obviously don't have any friends in real life, and try to makeup for it with multiple eve online accounts.

I guess each person has to define how much is too much time spent playing games. I work rotating shift work and have a family so my off days are spent with them with some game time squeezed in. The longest I ever really play in any one sitting is 4 hours and I don't view that as excessive or strange.

The reason I have multiple accounts be actually because of my time constraints and akward schedule. I have a lot of accounts, but I know plenty of people with more.

Last week I bought plex to buy a monocle and as a result my children went hungry.

You know, my wife often makes comments on the amount of time I spend on the computer. I always tell her I could be "that guy" that spends most of his spare time at the bar, getting sloshed.

Dont get me wrong, I think a good balance between your hobby and your family time is healthy, just not when "family time" means sitting on the couch watching Dr. Phil while wife plays on facebook.

Sigh. Pod me.

You make the assumption that I am some sort of carebear.

The only reason people PVP in hisec is because they want to shoot things that dont shoot back.



And here I thought it was because of bubbles, ceptors, bombers, and supercaps.

Hisec is the hardest area to conduct combat in, due to the restrictions. Low and null are easy mode in comparison.

Any moron like you can be an F1 monkey. Getting a blinged out mission bear in a Golem to aggress your assault frigate actually takes skill.



The only difficult part about highsec PvP is getting the fight, and with the ample supply of idiots all that requires is some patience - and being able to multibox a few alts to support yourself with things like on demand locator agents, specialized scanners and logi/OGB/DPS support greatly enhances your range of options.

Once the fight is on, it's over 99% of the time because the thing you are fighting will likely have zero PvP experience and knowledge of game mechanics. I've done some baiting in highsec with just one character; that's remotely challenging. With logi and OGB it becomes a joke.

Alot of this "emergent gameplay" seems to be some guy and his 15 alts playing games with the clueless gimps of the game. The House of Cohenberg seems to grow larger with each passing day. It is mostly easy, lazy PvP that exploits the growing trend of buy alts > win EVE.

I actually do believe this group of players provides a lot of entertainment for people like me who aren't highsec industrialists and thus aren't really bothered by them on a day to day basis. But the tears that come every time CCP patches some ridiculous exploit and forces the "elite" highsec pvp crowd to eat some risk with their rewards, are simply irresistible.

In before Kaarous shows up with some dribble about Ultima and Trammel that no one understands.

And cheers to Yaken and Loyal for whelping those rattlesnakes in lowsec. Please come back, and please upgrade to A types.

Sorry, about 80% of the player base stays in hisec. Can't imagine why.


*watches as newbros go into low and null, get raped repeatedly, then never go back in again*

Nope. The reason escapes me.

So while I would love to be a pirate yarring it up in low or null, everytime I go there I never see fat freighers/haulers trying to take a shortcut, etc.

All I see are blobs of interceptors/T3 cruisers......and empty systems.






Instalocking gate camps are trash, but once you learn to dodge those/which systems are permacamped, low and null are pretty cool. Lowsec is probably the best area of the game right now content wise.

I think there is a larger fundamental issue with people's willingness to put at risk fat targets like industrials and PvE fits and even expensive combat ships when ultimately you cannot defend yourself, even with friends, if you can't out-escalate the enemy. The reason you don't see freighters taking gates is because they would die instantly and if you had an escort fleet that would die also unless you can win the inevitable escalation contest against the biggest local super blob.

Remove Concord all together and make everyone happy.

Prices of goods will rise, industry will become rewarding for those who adapt!

PvP, so much pvp, everywhere! Content!

Being a space pirate will become a thing!

Eve will become much simpler, no more "Maybe I'll shoot you" -mentality, only "I will shoot you."

CCP pls

Well it seems my efforts may not have been for naught after allCool

This would be a proper change in mechanics.
I'll wait until it's implemented before I celebrate.

What I learnt from this thread.

Hyper dunking is a solo activity, despite known hyper Dunkers team up with 2 or 3 ppl
Freighter gankers r bad
Any type of conflict in Highsec is bad
Code is still hated.
I'm wrong because I'm in code

Flying in a group of frigates is elite pvp
Solo frigate pvp is elite pvp
Basically anyone that's "regularly" in a security status less than .5 is elite Pvp despite their kill boards not checking out.

I shall now go biomass I have been doing it all wrong.

Nobody knew who the Tank Man was either.

Doesn't really matter in this case. I'll just disappear into the masses and be forgotten.
