EVE General Discussion

For example, if you would like Goonswarm to loose, you sabotage there income in some manner for instance.

Isn't it obvious? You just drop your ~1,000 man fleet on their tech moon POSes!

Read initial post.

If anyone would tell how exactly, it would not work.

Common people, stop trolling, have a brain, you will see it is for the greater good (new players wanting to start a "career" in EvE....and hey.....maybe venture out into other sec space other than highsec........this is nul-sec greatest problem......maybe being tackeled)

Or do you not like these smaller corps snooping around your null-sec and maybe target something back without the need to wardec or a chance on security loss?

I am not saying I am intelligent. I am however figuring "stuff" out to do for myself.

Now let us all give gameplay hints on stuff for new or young players or corps to sink their teeth into.

You do not need 130+ Million SP to arrange a covert bombing run on miners in null-sec which happen to be from a alliance that is already at war.

It takes about 7 million SP.
And you can have a real thrill and learn sooooo much.


Now, I am sure there are players who have ideas to, lets have them!

No, lets tell them you can have interesting gameplay even if you are , say below 10M SP.
EvE is not just about getting rich.

I think you might have misunderstood the goal for this thread.

You see, it is not about me, I know plenty stuff to do and do them.

I think if there is one thing seriously lacking than it would be the visibility of valid game play.

Lets make it visible.
The option I offered is completely valid.

And if destruction is to big a thing, people will probably also realize that they can obstruct mineral income just by being at the location in a cloak

Most mining ops will dock up, an occasional bomb will amplify any fear when needed.



Common lets give these people something to look at.
In which I would have to agree, google does do wonders when planning your operations as a new entity.

If any new players are getting interested, Just mail Tiger Would. Maybe I can help some of you new guys along a bit!

But answer me this:

If you do not know the entire scope of EvE yet.....and lets be honest, who did when they subscribed?
If I look at me personally, sure I read the guides back than, figured out the mechanics.....but thats just such a small part.

I dare to say, many do not have a clue what so ever in regards to depth, politics and propaganda....
I think it is this that make to many people think that EvE should be played as it is played now. Hereby obstructing the visibility of the fact that anything goes, it is a sandbox.

And why is it exactly that EvE has trouble keeping subscribers.....I mean, controlling your spaceship, fitting it out, those are not hard parts.

I say it is this:

You see this advertisement of emergent gameplay. one day you join.
You think....I am going to be a big industrialist. (for example)

Than it does not look like that gameplay at all. It looks like there is no room for you. It looks like you can only join larger entities but never become one. Which in a large part is fueled by propaganda and trolling (like in this thread)

You do not get the feeling you can actually become anything you want.

I dare to say that hurts the number new subscribers actually having a stab at it.

I am not saying, make it easy.

I say, lets make it visible.



Now instead of responding saying nay again, do you have anything to add in this regard?

If not, it would be better not to post, since it would be topic.
