I am having lots of fun in EVE!, Why isn't this game more popular?

It's early morning
The sun comes out
Last night was shaking
And pretty loud
My cat is purring
And scratches my skin

I got a new battlecruiser and it is tearing stuff up Big smile

I have flown the Drake for ages, what race should I train for next? The Brutix seems amazing in terms of raw damage, but the damage projection of the Harbinger is also a draw.

Any idea when we will be getting more detailed information about how the Command Ships will be rolling out, I am currently flying a Nighthawk pilot for missions but following the changes to missiles I don't think I'll be able to break L4 tanks, and will be Blitzing 3s in a billion ISK hull.

Has anyone done 4s in a Sleipnir?

This game will be much more popular when they finally make pvp fully consensual.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

not really, all the wow players that flock to the game when the hear all the bad people can't shoot at them will just get bored with the real time training queue because they can't power level to "catch up" with the vets.

I'm sure CCP can address that aspect of gameplay as well.

And then lose the majority of their user base that currently exists.

Does great in level 4's. Machariel does them a bit faster. But no need to make that comparison. Also the dps has changed since crucible for some reason. Having taken a break a little after making that loadout... I need to check some things out.

PVP is fully consentual.

You consent when you select "Undock"

Yes, keep jumping from one overpowered ship to the next, and keep saying the game is fun. Nice perspective to things really.

Something people like to say but is not actually true, there is no pvp whatsoever in trade if you just click buy or sell.

Even the guardian class cruisers in 3's will be a marathon with a reduction. They changed the update, I think they only plan to reduce damages by 10% now, not the original 25% so that might not be as bad as you think.

I've kicked and screamed my share since then too. I'm just not used to reading the same thing multiple times. That habit needs to be set aside when reading Dev original posts.

Yes, alienating your preexisting playerbase worked wonders for both UO and SWG, CCP shoud definately listen to you guys more.

I have made 10B in 2 weeks by pressing "buy" or "sell". Somebody ended up giving those 10B to me somehow, it's like I killed half Supercarrier by myself.

Still convinced there's no PvP in trading, whatsoever?

One can financially cripple people with trade. Want to see someone's PI grind to a halt? Watch the trade prices drop. Want to see the Investors in tears? Get into trading pvp.

Trade is essentially pvp; by definition it cannot be anything else.

You try to make a good profit station trading and you will find it's not too easy.

once all the WoW-**** come over, repeal the fully consensual PVP and we will shoot them all, and CCP can get a nice boost to income for a little bit.
