EVE General Discussion

We won, why? Are you still upset about it?

High-sec is what I'd call extended tutorial. After a couple weeks you should leave it. Sadly EvE does a bad job at incentivizing players to do so.

Don't like the crappy war system in high-sec? Move to low/null. Don't like the politics of sov holding carebears or fights 5:1 vs. 100 titans on a server node that's about to crash? Move to a wormhole. Be a spy and make your isk that way. Or make art. Ninja-exploration. Stealing loot from low-sec gatecamps. Factional warfare. Hauling.
Or something else. Think for yourself.

Maybe they want you to quit so they can steal your corp ticker.

"EASY" is pretty nice, any kind of corp would love that.

should at least mean one can stand the same risks as literally every other corp in the game.

I did not even know about the tax issue until today. Not fussed about the tax issue at all.

Gankers face consequences. A big alliance faces no consequences when they war dec a small corp. There is no risk for them.

Of course I can leave the corp, but being OCD I hate the idea of leaving my corp which I have been in for 13 years. I totally acknowledge this means nothing to most of you who are probably in out of corps like there is no tomorrow. But I am not like that! More fool me.

Where did I say anything about "everything else risk free too"? I never said that. The only risk free party in this complaint is the large alliance which has war decced a corp which has two active players

I am not like that. I am the peaceful type. I would never just war dec someone for high jinks. I would not fit in with CODE at all

I could pay someone larger to slap them, but that just feeds the beast. I´ll go with passive again, and just stay docked up. Of course knowing my luck after this thread people will go out of their way to war dec my little corp, just because they can and they think I am being "special".

And before you say, "Oh maybe this game is not for you.", let me disabuse you of that notion. I was in Ultima Online back in the day and when they introduced the horror of Trammel, I remained in Felucca for most of my adventures. I enjoy the spectacle of watching the horror of human nature display itself online

For now, I am taking the opportunity to play around with an Alpha (ok, ok, I made him an Omega for a month to speed up his training....) for venture adventures!

I was an active type player. I don't like repetitive mechanics in a game. I don't like to grind, but I don't go around saying that missions are absolutely not fun. I'll voice my opinion about it from time to time. I however don't complain about it like it ruins my game. I find other ways and made Isk outside of the Mission/Ratter/Anom PVE type grind.

Why should the game adapt to you? Or to anyone who doesn't like a certain mechanic when it's explicitly designed to give some multiple course of actions, that all have their own bonuses and consequences, if they don't like a certain set of mechanics?

Don't like Wars? Stay in an NPC corp. Don't like being in an NPC and don't like wars, Join a PVE corp in Nullsec.

If you want to have a Corp in Highsec, and do corpy things in Highsec. You need to be prepared to handle the trade-offs of that choice. Avoiding an aggressor is unbelievably easy now. The fact that we still get people complaining about it is ridiculous. It has been getting more and more ridiculous as the years pass by.

Even if you have been semi-active during those 13 years, you would be understanding of all of this, or at least have some inkling of how to handle a wardec other than docking up.

No "problem" here buddy. The person between the chair and keyboard is doing just fine.

Literally end of thread. This is not a valid reason to change a playstyle / mechanic.

EDIT : Hahahahaha i just read the post above and discovered you've had 6 wars in 13 years..

I just logged off for the week at that time.



Sure I saw it, caught fair and square. No complaints about the lost ships. It happens.

I still think the war dec mechanic is a bad mechanic. Corps are the only forms of player associations, trying to keep friends together should not be a PITA. It should be something which encourages players to come back to the game from time to time, not something that ostracises active players out of a structure where they can find their friends because the risk of going up against a large corp is insurmountable for a small corp in what is meant to be an area of space that is somewhat safer than low/null.



P.S. Alpha is sitting in his NPC corp.
