EVE General Discussion

I'm not sure, but I think CCP did it that way specifically to irritate you.

To be honest, I think NPC corp should be wardecable (for a sufficiently high price.)

That... or it should be possible to buy shares in them, perform a hostile takeover, install yourself as CEO and turn on friendly fire.

... stealth "waaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, CCP won't let us war dec NPC corps and don't judge me because I don't have the balls to go fight in Null..." thread detected.

Ccp "fix" "change" and "balance"stuff every 6-12weeks.

Why cant they change this?

Because CCP has always said that choices should have consequences and its been dumbed down enough where there ARE no choices or consequences because of cry babies like you!! Cookie cutter characters without any real differences or meanings. More sps for those building alts! Yeah uhuh...

Because it hurts the loners in the dead npc corps.
If someone hasnt joined a good player corp or had a bad experience and then return to a totally dwad/terrible npc corp. They may just quit.

It would bring npc players together and could encourage more grouping/friendships.

Its kind of like was an mmo is dying and they merge servers.

Just merge the separate npc corps of each race together and boom. Instant more people/etc etc.


Why has 3 separate Gallente npc corps each with (random #) 200 people online, when can merge and boom gall npc corp then has almost 1000 people

some time ago, not sure if it is the same nowadays, but, in the Gallente starter corporations, there was some observable difference between the three.
The Federal Navy Academy, the players there seemed more "woo, lets shoot stuff!"
the University of Caille, the players there were into the research and exploration games
and CAS, the players there were quite into trying to build things with other people. group mining and so on.

So, at that point in time, the choosing of the starter corporations put people into groups with somewhat like-minded people, so that they might make friends with whom they'd have a few things in common.

That's how it used to work, at least. Not sure how it works nowadays.


As well as the 12 starter corporations, there are 12 bloodline corporations that players are placed in, if they quit a player corporation without joining another. Everyone that is an Amarr goes into Viziam, everyone that is Khanid goes into Ministry of War, everyone that is Ni-kunni goes into Imperial Shipment, as an example.

The worst example of those bloodline corporations is what happens to Vherokior characters. Instead of going to the Vherokior Tribe npc corporation, which would make sense, given that Sebiestor characters go to the Sebiestor Tribe npc corp, and Brutor characters to the Brutor Tribe corp, the Vherokior characters are placed in Native Freshfood, for some reason, which defies common sense.

That kind of dilutes the playerbase somewhat, spreading them over those npc corporations for no real reason.



So there's 12 starter corps, 12 bloodline corps, and 4 faction militias.

The bloodline ones should be the ones to look at first, because separating people by bloodline of their character is fairly arbitrary.

Separating them by faction, then it could be reduced to 4, and I'd suggest these ones:

Chief Executive Panel - for caldari characters
Republic Parliament - for minmatar
Amarr Civil Service - for amarr
Federal Administration - for gallente

These corporations represent the governments of the four major npc entities, and make some sense for people to be placed in them.


It'd help with critical mass, keeping players in touch with each other, and helping them stay interested in playing, maybe.

Theres only 2 corps in EVE. Goonfleet and pubbies.

And lol at Dungeons. Where are the walls?

If EVE is a prison for the mind, then we've all got Duracell stamped on our bottoms.

Death to all NPC corps. Burn them to the ground.

Grrr.
