EVE General Discussion

I did L2s in Utopia area in a Thrasher when i was 3 months into the game. Solo. Much more hassle, risk and fun.
I did higher level missions for Serpentis in the same area where DNS lived, got loads of booster bpcs and some pretty good implants.
It wrecked hisec for me. Same thing but it's like watching TV with the sound muted.
The Godfathers probably still do Serp missions in Fountain and they have pilots who always have sets of Serpentis implants on contracts in Jita. I've seen em ninja PVEing combat sites for the faction cruiser and BS hull bpcs.
While not close to Infinity Ziona levels of dank iskage, it's profitable and fun.

Destiny: your stated reason for staying in hisec is because everybody is huddled there scratching up dem crumbs. Corps need to bum rush null, scrabble up all the ore, gas, moon goo and ratting they can. They will probably get richer and will definitely have more fun.
I support anything that relegates highsec to it's proper status. Rookie pond and quiet zone. Don't sneer at the Blue Donut if you're not willing to go be a red spot in it.

I remember in 2010/2011 this was the case. Yet another Save the Bears Nerf

Hyperdunking does not avoid consequences, that's why it's not an exploit despite how hard carebears cried about it.

Dec dodging is used to avoid consequenecs, specifically to bypass the surrender mechanic. It is a textbook exploit.




That's my line. You can't have the benefits of a player corp, specifically the evasion of NPC corp taxes, and have the perfect safety of an NPC corp by using the dec dodge exploit.

Um social corp!?....Scope Corp definitely!

Scope Corp - Best corp

We aim to please

and I hope I fall for one of your scams soon Mam

I didn't write that. Pfft, misquoting.

While we're there though, perhaps it's "boring" because you "real" PvPers like to live in highsec and shoot industrials without having to commit anything beyond the current ship you fly. Personally, I enjoy null.

Didnt you play this game a few years ago? Dec dodging by reforming corp was an exploit. Nothing has changed except a ton of bears got tempbanned and cried so ccp deemed it now magically wasnt an exploit.

Its the same exact mechanics to reforming a corp as when it was classified as exploit. If bears just obeyed the law and didnt cry a few years ago and didnt exploit, ccp wouldnt have had to cave in and allow it

My sides are now lost in Jove space.

Un-war-deccable corps seems like a bad idea.

And it also provides a good venue for new players to meetup with people they enjoy playing with and forming a normal corp down the line when they're ready to tackle bigger enterprises with people they've built a relationship with. I think this is a good move as it will give players a taste of the social aspect of this game, without committing to a full blown corp and the following culture and personalities. Some solo players want to do their own thing without the drama and demands that accompany guilds, corps, or whatever mechanic the MMO uses for player alliances.

Again, this is a great way to get new players feet wet, and help them find players with the same game interests, playtimes, etc in an environment that sounds like a good stepping stone to moving on to a player corp or better yet, founding one with like-minded people you played with in the social corp and forming your own identity in the universe. Not to mention within the social corp there will be opportunities for the players to stage content elsewhere in New Eden and daytrip to areas they otherwise wouldn't.

Roaming is suddenly less intimidating if you can get 10 newbs together and don't have to go all in by joining a PVP corp and deploying yourself god knows where, with players you might not even end up liking, before you figure out what you want to do in EVE. And there is A LOT to do in EVE, don't let the Jita Undock fool you. Ship vs Ship is inevitable but hardly all that EVE has to offer, nor the only form of PVP in this PVP game. I see nothing wrong with more tools and supports for new players to get acclimated and maybe hang around a bit longer; this game is terrible solo IMO. If I didn't luck up into a good group of guys within 4 days of playing I would have been gone a long time ago, but here I am year 3. And eager to see what other changes are coming down the pipe.

But naturally, if could possibly lead to one less newbie potentially getting blown to hell by some bored 10 year's t3/pirate ship in High Sec, it is a terrible idea.

If shutting the corp down is an exploit I guess leaving a fight is an exploit as well.


I declare war...you have to fight me....because I say so.....wah!!!!!!!!!
