If the Gallente died out you'd lose about 95% of all porn production in EVE, and all bars and nightclubs and whatnot would be very boring suddenly. Shocked

Gallente is technically the 2nd most advanced race in eve according to CCP so no, never going to happen. For the record in technological order of the main races.

Caldari
Gallente
Amarr
Minmitar

No fanbaseing simply the facts according to CCP And I am amarr.

Also the pirates would never be wiped out because their tech exceeds empire tech when pod pilots fly them. This at times is admitted in the description of their flagships reflected by stats and bonuses as well as price. Their only issue is you can't join their races because they are not part of the playable races only ships.

If I was in a pirate race by bloodline I would be a Sansha or Blood Raider follower. XD

If your talking game mechanics (broken hybrids, useless ships...), then at least we have a balance patch to look forward to post-winter expansion.



I always thought it went Amarr>Caldari>Gallente>Minmatar. At least that's how I understood it after reading each faction's description in character creation yeeeeeaaars ago.

I think he meant D!ck in reference to the sex-toy design aesthetic of the Gallente ships

What would happen if gallente suddenly died out, there were only 3 races left. Perhaps Amarr, Caldari and Minmatar teamed up to take out the weakest civilization. Then, after Gallente dissappeared, all 3 races became bitter enemies as they couldn't decide who would take what technology.

Amarr managed to grab more advanced drone tech, allowing them to improve their current drone ships and add new abilitys.

Caldari managed to grab more hybrid weapon tech, allowing them to improve their current hybrid ships into more devastating adversaries.

Minmatar managed to grab their armor and stasis webifier tech, allowing some of their ships to have a new stronger alloy on their armor and a new velocity factor on their stasis webifiers.

The rattlesnake, gila and worm quickly transformered into a Caldari/Amarr Ship

The machariel, cynabel and dramiel quickly transformed into a Minmatar/Caldari ship

The vindicator, vigilant and daredevil quickly transformed into a Caldari/Minmatar ship.


Most ships from the 3 races got improved in their abilitys as they morphed the technology that they pillaged into their designs


Sorry, but, I like this idea. It rings true to the mechanics of EVE.

Sure, according to the LORE, backstory, books of EVE Online the Gallente are a mighty race.
According to the actual Game Mechanics, the Gallente are the worst, their ships finish last in every category and class.

The Lore is the reason so many people, myself included, picked the Gallente to play.
The Gallente ships are the reason so many people are Gallente but fly Minmatar or Caldari, because the Gallente Suck!

If the Gallente were defeated and ceased to exist as a Space-Nation, nobody would want their technology, because their inferior technology would be the reason they got wiped out in the first place. Drones would cease to be used in combat, because the chief proponents and producers of Drones would no longer have a military, power or captial with which to build them and sucker people into buying them. And thus, a new technology would be developed to enable large ships to deal with small ships.

May the Gallente Rest in Peace. Big smile

If the Gallente were wiped out, who would champion the ideals of Space-crepes and sit in cafes smoking cigarettes and talking about old paintings all day?

And Quafe is a Gallente company, so we'd all die of dehydration should the Gallente ever die off.

deth2Amarr instead

Fewer threads about hybrid and Gallente ship rebalancing and CCP wouldn't need to bother adjusting them. As well, most members of the other races look as though they fell out of the ugly tree hitting every branch on their way down that I'd imagine the Amarr could even get lucky but I don't think they're into that.What?

Yeeee!

It's delusions of grandeur from our Gallente friend if he thinks that the Gallente race is stronger than the Caldari. The only thing the Gallente military is good for is trying to dock super carriers into stations.
