Quite stupendous. I do love impotent internet nerd rage when my insomnia kicks in and this fills the bill perfectly.

WoW holds your hand until end game, and gives you a cookie whether you win or lose. EVE not only takes your cookie, but laughs at you for bringing one in the first place...

Why can't carebears do this ****?


This is the idea we used a couple of years back, we tested it over a couple of days before Hulkageddon started that year and it worked pretty well.

Wow, that's... pretty innovative.

So your hulks pair up and web each other, and you can fleetwarp to their align point? They wouldn't be able to dock though... or can they?


Don't think they'd be able to dock. But a good SS will always last 60+s. Or use a POS, whatever.

As for why carebears don't think of this stuff, it's because whining on EvE-O is easier than thinking.

The OP is 100% correct and the official numbers of actual new player are far less then the ones rage quitting. Plexed alts aside Eve is very much so being negatively effected by this sort of thing and it caters to a few and alienates the masses of miners who get the finger by CCP. I am not a miner but, I have enough sense about me to know when something steps over the line and this sort of thing does. She did get what she wanted and that was gankers tears because, that is all I see QQing on here.

That's some nice unsubstantiated dribble you've got there…

Legitimate questions and statements, is that your final answer?

WoW holds your hand until end game, and gives you a cookie whether you win or lose. EVE not only takes your cookie, but laughs at you for bringing one in the first place...

So you admit that your claims are made up and unsubstantiated and that there is nothing really stepping over the line here…

Ok. Why did you say all of that then if you know it's nonsense and you can't back it up?

T3 Mining Barges (modular like T3 Cruisers) would be awesome.

To keep this short... there is no competence for EVE. You buy it as it is, or you don't play at all.

I seriously suggest to look for a little niche away from EVE mainstream. And don't mine in a hulk when hulkageddon is active.

People have been whining for a 5th set of subsystems for T3s for a while, mining subsystems might be just the thing to fill that void Smile

And it would **** PVPers off terribly, and trolling a major subset of the game is always awesome.Pirate

When you finally step across the threshold (pve to pvp), the only downside is being cajoled for your fit. God help you if you have a pdu instead of a DCU on a shield ship with no hull or armor !!!

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships

Built by CCP

Ok, so you think that a Tanky, Lower yield mining barge would see use by the miners, right?

How about a mining ship that gives up 20% of a Hulks Yield in exchange for 4 times the tank (46k EHP)?

No?

How about one that gives up 25% of a Hulk's yield in exchange for 10 times the tank (104k EHP, aka better than a cargo Orca)?

Cause I have fits for a Rokh that do both of those (the percent yield is even better when you compare to an Exhumer 4 Hulk), and I've seen very little indication that any significant number of miners use the ship to mine.

Just like very few miners are willing to drop their second MLUII for a Damage control.

Miners tend to be monomaniacaly obsessed with their yield and no matter how stupid it is to fly untanked ships during HAG, they'll keep losing them and crying on the forums.

The reality is this is not good for Eve Online in anyway. The events like this are driving the Eve population down more and more each year and each event. There is nothing OK or enlightenment with TOS when orchestrating mass grieving gank platoons to go around killing innocent and paying customers and ruining their game play experience. This is detrimental to the Eve Universe and when Eve goes belly up and there is No game for any of us to log in to you will all remember this post.

I will not be replying to this thread or coming back to read the gankers tears so troll ON till your hearts content.
