Wormholes

You may feel good going solo but you don't know what you are missing until you join a corp with nice, like-minded people.



Mandela ant Luther King fought to REMOVE different sets of rules applied to the same people. That is actually the opposite of what you are suggesting.

That your business model isn't very good is a problem YOU have to solve. You can't ask for the entire game to undergo a paradigm shift to accommodate the fact that you can't formulate a winning strategy.

Or perhaps Ghandi, Mandela and MLK developed tactics to gain power for their group against a more powerful group that was ready to lose their master morality. Wouldn't work so well against ISIS or Nazi's, or the Amarian mindset in Eve.

I'm a solo player...in the sense solo corp.

I solo'ed a WH for 3 months before I took my break in 2014. Look at my kill board...hmmm...theres something different...

I did a ton of research before even thinking about living in a hole. I also studied what it takes to survive the pvp aspect...DON'T BE STUPID.

I knew what was safe, and what was too risky...carrier is NOT an option. If the site requires a carrier...its too risky for the reward. Skip it and go to the lesser site with a better pvp survivability ship.

TLDR: Quit whining; You knew what you were getting into, and if you didn't, then you got what was coming. As I tell my kids...

Suck it up princess, and learn form you stupidity.

Yeah... I'll bite on this one.

Carriers, along with other capital ships, aren't really meant for solo play; between lack of mobility and lack of damage application to targets smaller than you (i.e. basically everything), you are a sitting duck to the first gang that can eliminate your fighters and break your tank.

You getting ganked isn't injustice, more people than just you banded together to 'poon your whale ass, if you don't get outgunned, you are going to get outnumbered, it is basically a rule you can count on.

Seems like you want a solo pwnmobile. Sorry, they don't exist. Eve isn't built or ballanced for the solo player. Seriously, spend some time on youtube and watch fleet battles between alliances and ask yourself what the result would be if every single cap deployed (I'll wait while you count them all) were the solopwnmobile you feel like it should be. Why fly anything else at that point.

You need to let your ideas of "progression" die, bigger ship classes don't necessarily give you the tools to succeed vs an entire hostile gang; everything you can train for either prepares you or sharpens your abilities to fufill different fleet roles; ships don't get better at everything as they get bigger.

Make some friends man, it will take you a long way in making every ship class enjoyable. There is a reason coprorations exist, just because you want to solo doesn't mean it is unfair for you to be attacked by a gang; you have an asset other people want to destroy, this should be enough of a lure to provide friends you make with content.

It doesn't matter what you are sitting in. At the end of the day, friendship is the best ship. Every solo boat is a km waiting to happen.

The obvious solution is to stop soloing and get involved in a player organization.

HA! HAHAHAHA!!! BAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

no.

I am a solo player (95% solo kills career so far) and i think you're being incredibly entitled. You can;t walk into a clearly labeled multiplayer game and expect there to be a special little place carved out where you "introverts" (wrong word) can play with your carriers in peace. Actually there is, the SiSi server. Every ship on SiSi is 1isk and there wont be many people trying to hunt you, fly carriers to your hearts content.

On Tranquility however EvE is a multiplayer game and allowing carebears like you the ability to wall yourself off from the rest of the game is incredibly damaging both to your learning and the the greater game as a whole.

There are ships that are more geared toward solo and ones that are more personnel intensive, this adds depth to the game. Honestly you're kind of lucky you didn't post this in GD or you'd never hear the end of it.

As i mentioned i fly almost exclusively solo and much of the time in wormhole space. You have no idea what you're saying. Go play on SiSi if you want single player.

(bet you won't tho, because you want loads of ISK on the main server just with no risk at all to yourself..)

I want to say loneworf has been a super cool guy in his comments in this thread. Even though his ideas may seem silly, he has been way more civil than the people disagreeing with him!

As a member of a WH PvP corp, I have some advice to give loneworf regarding solo PvE in WH space. Contrary to what many have said in this thread, solo PvE in WH space _is_ a potentially viable option. That is part of the beauty of Eve. You can play the game how you want.

That said, it is not necessarily _easy_ to play the game any given way. To do solo PvE in WH space, you need to be very very careful. This may involve: bringing all holes in your system to critical mass, warping to safety when a new sig spawns, ratting aligned and ready to warp away at the slightest whiff of trouble, and obsessive d-scanning, among other things.

It seems to me unlikely that petitioning to the devs on this particular matter will bring about much change. Instead, I recommend working within the existing rules of the game to achieve what you want, loneworf. PvP WHers have methods, but you also have counter methods to deploy!

You should collapse all the WHs. After you collapse them a new static will appear. Do not warp to the new static, your hole will be safe until a wandering WH pops up. (Edit: unless there is someone already in your system).
This way you will reduce the risk.
When new signature pops up, assume that someone entered your system and is already looking for you.

I'm not going to carry on with what has already been said, but here is what i will say.

Find a new WH, I would never consider staying in a wormhole with Russians, they are way more bad ass than you.

it's way more secure in SOV Null and you fly around in your orca and do whatever you do.

You don't even have to talk to people just contribute on some level and people leave you alone,

and risk is as minimal as it gets in null, as long as you are not brain damaged and know how to use your tools.

That being said, even in high sec you can still get ganked in whatever you are flying.

Undock some fancy ship and just because they can some suicide squad just waiting for whatever undocks decides it's you.

That's EVE, it's what makes it great, that if you undock it you should be prepared to lose it

I will say, if you want, "I don't want anyone to hurt my feelings, and i shouldn't lose my stuff when my feelings get hurt"...well World of Warcraft is that way ---->
