EVE General Discussion

Yah sorry

i try again : 20000 people old eve players MIGHT leave 20000 new players MIGHT play its marketing. Eve can stick with the old game or move on and try to get eve in a better view....

50/50

Perhaps but you are not a ccp programmar or a ccp marketing manager you saying this because of your own view you can or never know what the stats are if the are realy old eve players stay or leave you will never know. Let me say this i agree on my point on any answers but CCP is the law for eve online even if you think you can change it you have it wrong, presidents do the same, some bad some good.

Actually, my statement isn't really a push in either direction, its a statement of their choices. They can go with the safe money old player based or they can take a gamble, make moves that alienate the vets, and hope that it attracts new players.

Oh, wait, they already did that and nearly lost everything with Incarna.

If you look, they held off on changing course or even saying anything til it became clear that not only did taking the game in a bold new direction drive off their existing player base, it failed to get new players.

Fix the game, then add new stuff, in that order. The game is rather broken now because they spent years adding new stuff without fixing the old, and thats why we want a stop on all new stuff. CCP broke the game once already because of :change:

Just because they hinted at ship tiers being removed doesn't exonerate the skill changes from being ill-conceived and worthless.

As for ship tiers, CCP has no problems promising you everything and then walking away to chase something else shiny. Wait until you see it.

They didn't hint at them being removed. They said that they were going to be removed.

How are the skill changes ill-conceived and worthless exactly? Because you say so?
Because you are mad?

Nope. Sorry

Sure are a lot of children accusing people with different opinions than their own of being spoiled.

The *ONLY* reason why people are complaining about these changes are because they want other people to suffer the same as they have suffered.

I.E. "If I had to train for Battleships V to fly a capital, then everyone else should too!"


Of course, *I* could go along the same lines and say:
"If I had to set alarm clocks so that I could change my skill training in the middle of the night, then everyone else should too!"
"If I had to slowboat 15km to the gate before I could jump, then everyone else should too!"
"If I had to wait to win the T2 lottery in order to build T2 ships/modules, then everyone else should too!"
"If I had to spend 20 million ISK on a Cap Recharger II, then everyone else should too!"
"If I had to mine in a battleship, then everyone else should too!"

so on and so forth.

EVE changes. Adapt or die.

How to handle the BS 5 issue is one of the main issues being discussed and they are encouraging feedback.

The proposed skill system actually would be quite the opposite of "dumbing down" the game.

However, relax, there is plenty of time for these issues to be hashed out. Truth be told to have a truly informed decision we'll need to wait until the more detailed Dev Blog arrives.

No it isn't.

Minnie BS5, caldari BS5, maybe even amarr BS5, but unless you want capsips, gal BS5 is pretty worthless, because Gal BS are pretty worthless compared to the alternatives.

I am angry and you know why because not enough people are angry. And then i am angry because i dont want to be angry about people being not angry.
