EVE General Discussion

microtransactions? nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dress up dolls ??? you love Ken so tell me!!!

The reason i made the point (although i shouldnt have really) is that there is (IMO) two types of people who play eve. The PVP nullsec guys and the PVE high sec people (me).

THE PVP nulls dont like development that isnt pvp orientated and the PVE high secs dont like development that is PVP related.

The inherent nature that pvp causes in any game means that there will never be "balance" which is what all the pvp players want from a developer. This means every patch or update that doesnt involve pvp balance is critisized by the PVP community (including wis) and things that are all about ship balance are all complained about by the PVE community.

Look at wow as a generalised example. When i played that there was always a patch that changed the pay pvp worked and there was always a party that wasnt happy the classic "ZOMG mages are nerfed why not nerf pallys" then they nerf pallys "Zomg pallies are nerfed and hunters are op" so on and so forth.

Lets face it. With a game as broad as eve with such a high player base all on the same shard. There is never going to be complete satisfaction from everyone. Except the few that are just happy about any addition that lets us know the developers are still bothered about their game (ME) I got nothing against wis. I got nothing against new pvp ships or renamed modules or whatever. It breakes up the motonony of the game with something new

No i laughed about this :



its actually true and of course visa versa

but you made a next post wich covers that already

Fair enough, Taiwanistan. You don't like it. Seems I can't argue with you about that. We have different views of social gaming here. But the thing I really would like to know is why you hate it? I mean, it is a game in the end. Why do you have so strong feelings about that? What would be so bad about some people running around on a station, talking with each other in the same "organic" way people socialize today in fleets and their corporations?
Is it just the fact that some resources are pushed back from other projects? Or is there something else going on?

The problem isn't that we have different views, the problem is that we mostly don't respect the views of other players. I try to do that (and yes, that is sometimes hard I have to admit), but I think there is no need for such hate or even insults I see here. To be honest, that seems to be the problem with the whole forum and community.
It's just a game, nothing more. In the end, CCP will decide what will happen. No reason to fight each other as if our lives depend on it.



Micratransactions have nothing to do with a specific theme. I don't want to see them either in EvE. But let's face it: one day they will be inevitable. The online game payment models are changing, more and more microtransaction and f2p games are emerging and most older games already converted to the microtransaction model. I totaly understand why CCP tried to catch up with todays market. But their timing and the execution of their "micro"transaction model was awful. I don't say that I like it, but you can rage, troll and shoot at monuments how much you want, the day of microtransactions and a f2p model for EvE will come some day. Mark my words.
But that matter is seperated from the general discussion about WiS. As I can see, most people don't want a microtransaction model with WiS. I for myself certainly don't want it.

Dress up dolls on the other hands have much to do with sci-fi. You know, even in the future most people prefer to wear clothes. And even more prefer to look good and make an impression. Looking at your avatar you seem to be a fan of the unkempt and unwashed nerdy look, but that isn't our fault . I want to have some stylish clothes because it's important to me how my character looks and is perceived by other players. (And to be serious, it clearly seems to be important to you too or you wouldn't have made such an... unique avatar.)


But granted, the statement that CCP planned a full sci-fi simulator in the first place isn't true as far as I know. As I startet to play EvE back in 2006 the topic emerged again and again in the forums and people were asking for ambulation (how they called it back then) many times. And CCP said for a long time that it will never happen. If I remeber correctly that changed with the Fanfest in 2008 were they showed the first demo of what they developed at that point. I also can't remeber that they talked about a "full sci-fi simulator" at that time, just about a bunch of ideas what they wanted to integrate with ambulation.
The sci-fi simulator thing is a more recent comment. Don't get me wrong, I very much like the idea of that and I fully support that vision. But it is wrong that this was the plan since they startet to develop the game. Maybe it was, but got discarded early on because of multiple reasons.
If they really stated that back then, I would like to know when they said that. Of course I could be totaly wrong on that but that is how I remember it.

What does barbie have to do with GI Joe?

Hard core fans will deny difference with GI Joe.

Outsiders of the concept would only see they are only lieing to themselves.

I just hope that they realize that and that they get back to WiS and secure EVEs future.

So remember votes, a vote for Issler is a vote for Space Barbies.

...

Yeah, thats what I thought. Ill save you the time, just click here instead.

Ganking has existed in Eve since day one, almost a decade of ganking. I really dont think ganking is killing Eve, do you?

Also, the fact that you are stalking a non-goon forum alt is worrying.... very worrying.

I am not talking about ganking.
I am talking about wanting that EVE loose players.
That only person who wants EVE dead wants.
And that person who wants to see EVE dead is against WiS - what a surprise.

Goon or not a goon, you want the same, dead EVE.

I'm picturing you crying that into your cheap house draft in some dive because you ran out of food stamps and your welfare cheque is late. At least they have free wi-fi.
