EVE General Discussion

Funny but I see here a guy who has not left Empire, let alone participated in FW saying he won't debate with npc corpies?
Yet wants to make every new player who joins the game a legitimate target from day 1.
Bad idea and very narrow minded.

Unless of course you are posting with an alt - Which is quite common and cannot be used to judge whether another's comments are valid or not.

I don't like that we can only fight over these sov anoms for a narrow period of time. Downtime between timers is the exact thing that we don't need. It's boring. What're we supposed to go do other than start more timers?

Ideally, the sov anoms should be interbellum features. We should be able to fight over them 23/7. It would be nice if they would shove the timers back and forth by a reciprocal amount.

That would speed up uncontested outcomes, and string out contested ones. The limit for pushing timers back or forwards should be limited to 50% or so of whatever constitutes the itmer length

Ideally, the number of sov anoms would also be dynamic. If we occupy one, two more should spawn, each with 1/n effect on constellation status. This allows us to split fleets endlessly.

Excellent, I'm serving a useful purpose?
I consider that more useful than like you being a troll with nothing useful to add.

Oh and just as an aside, I kept you occupied for a few mins; OP success

Yes, have a nice day, even the silliest trolls deserve that.

but you believe some players are not looking at this new system and dreaming up their own cunning plans. thinking maybe this is our chance to take space, isn't that a bit narrow minded?
you really believe that the people that own and run null right now, will be there forever and only they have what it takes to own sov and lead a powerful force within the game.
that's rather silly if i'm honest with you. there is always someone waiting to fill those shoes and lead a group and take sov or do all the other things in EVE. empires rise and fall, people join and one day leave, but always there is someone to take their place.
it's been that way since i joined EVE 7 years ago.
always the I'm gonna take my ball and go home threads, if CCP don't do as i want i will unsub my 1000 alts threads.
the EVE is dead or going to die threads

look it's kinda simple, nothing lasts forever, i'm sure one day the plug will be pulled on this amazing little universe we've created and we'll all think back to these days and go wow. what a feckin trip that was. but why worry about that shite.
while we're here just love it or leave it.

So your attitude and analysis is pretty good but not quite reality based. After 7 years, you have been around to see how we got to where we are now and unless something drastic happens, not much will change overall.

The only real change coming is Supers and Titans are being replaced with Entosis fit Condors and Rifters.

Yes many will be looking at this and dreaming up plans. For the majority, plans is as far as it will get, a few might make the jump and try to hold sov. Of those few, some who prove worthy will be absorbed into one of the bloks, others may end up holding sov that is really not worth anything but provides content for the blok members, until they get bored and force them out.

The "leaders" of the large bloks for the most part are no longer active in the game but be assured they still have a pretty firm grip on their empires. The people who do the day to day running or these organizations have no aspirations of "taking over" and until someone with more money than sense comes along who can setup an infrastructure to rival even the smallest coalition, the status quo in sov nul will remain.
Alliances will come and go but those controlling much of the nulsec content are there to stay.

Unless CCP mans up and makes each alliance responsible for the defense or capture of space they want to control, not much will change.

Pretty much this. You would see alot more activity in low sec if High sec income was nerfed and / or Low sec income was buffed.

I've got 40 Billion in ISK and about 200 Billion in assets. I promise the day I quit, I will biomass ALL my characters with everything I own. No one gets a bloody thing...


On another note CCP Falcons speech sounds like nothing more than a marketing effort. All the people who insist on crapping with the "adapt or quit" stupidity don't seem to understand things really aren't so great...

Regardless of the empty quotation about EVE being the savior of the gaming world and the best game ever, etc, etc, etc, the fact is there are other games out there to play...I really like playing EVE...but it really seems like someone at CCP wants to drive it into the ground...and I don't understand why???

I got another question - who are complainng more about sov 5.0?
A lot of alts on forums so not really clear who represents which alli or coalition.
Who do you think lose more, who would gain more after June.

I will give the short version because I am getting sick of typing this:

New SOV is going to be like FW, too easily flipped until people don't care. So, they will grab SOV until they get sick of being griefed and if SOV becomes worth holding again then they will be evicted.

EVE died with BoB, you're just starting to smell the corpse.

Seriously, we need to keep our panties on and our knives sharpen, the age of the coalitions is coming to an end.

(start building ships for the next campaign, I have believe someone will figure it out)
