EVE New Citizens Q&A

Returning to the game after 3 years of not playing all i have got from it so far is nothing but bad people in space.
My activities and experience the month i have been back is so far:

High-sec mining: Sins i only had about 20mil when i log on i decide to mine for some buffer isk. But thanks to CODE i get suicide ganked and lose more than i gain from mining. No warning, No Chat, Locked, Scramed and Blown to bits, Podded.

Fine sins the player base don't allow for solo mining anymore i just do some exploring, I Buy a magnet and fit it for exploring, All fine until i accidentally pressed "want to leave highsec" and enter a low sec system, Locked Scramed and blown to bits, podded.

I Try again with exploring, this time i use wormhole to get to null-sec, first gate jump: Interdicted and killed, podded.

In summary i have lost on average 2 ships per day to players, and on average being podded half of those times and that's only because they can't use interdiction bubbles. Every time the bubble is there People pod for no reason other than its "fun" to be an bad person.

My worst experience so far is when i finally got enough isk buffer to feel that i can buy an astero and covert op cloak. I get to a random null sec system and begin to look for systems with 0 people in it (couse thats the only way not to get killed) after managed to make 2 sites a small gang of 4-5 people start to what i experience as hunt me down. Begins with that only them being at a gate, i only survive the first gate camp thanks to my odd warp-in angle and warp-cloak, after they hunting me through 6 systems my luck finally runs out and i enter a system where a camp is already set up. Thanks to the ******* interdiction bubbles and how cloaking works i have 0 chance of getting away, one of the campers get a lucky align on the short while i am up on overview and decloaks me and 100mil down the drain thanks to random bad people.

During my month back in eve i have meet exactly 1 person in space t hats not been a complete bad person.

CCP really promotes people being assholes with their "Don't Fly alone"-program and how easy it is to "Engage on your own terms".

"Engage on your own terms" is a bull sentence, if that really were the case i should be able to warp away on my own terms, but thats impossible, a single interdiction bubble cancels out every warp stabs you put on the ship, don't matter if you have 1 or 100, you will not warp away, heck even if you put 3x warp stabs on a ship you will get scramed down sins a single faction module negates it, and it one don't work just stack two and its done, bad people will always get the upper hand sins its cheap to fit 1-2x scramblers vs 4xstabs (that don't work on bubble camps).

"don't go exploring then" "Don't go to low sec then" "don't go to null sec" "learn to d-scan"

EVE has alot of problem and majority of the playerbase is one of them, sites like zkillboards and eve-kill helps with adding fuel to the the fire.

Another bad experience i get is when running L3 Missions, and that's Assholes that hunt mission runners, Couse everyone knows that you have to have a pvp fit to do L3-missions in a battlecruiser, Scramed, dented the attacker shield before second ******* shows up and finishes the jobb. was lucky and managed to warp away before locked and podded.

Next time CCP makes a "this is eve" trailer, maybe they should show what the game is realy about: Gatecamps, podding, gang ups, warp scrambles, hauler bumpings, mission runner killing, and trick new players with the "help channel" and "eve univeristy" to believe that everyone you meet is not out to kill you.

I'm going to give this game another two weeks, if i continue to face nothing but bad people in this game by then i am contactin customer support for a refund of the subscription.

"People are trying to kill me in this pvp game, what has the world come to!". This being a competitive PVP centric game it's up to you to lower the risk of getting **** by others, and up to others to try and **** with you as much as they want. This hasn't magically changed from 3 years ago.

Each and every of those situations could have panned out differently if you had a well thought out plan based on knowledge and fact, and were active (not afk mining).

Only time i have ever done afk mining was during a L4 Mining mission, and i find it insulting that you assume i was afk mining when i explicit said it was CODE ganking.

Also please tell me exactly how i can get out of Interdiction bubble gate camps, i really would love to know, course that is currently number one reason for me to quit.

easy stay cloaked and analyse which direction you want to go, align, hit mwd and then cloak right after it, job done, you dont know how hard it is to actually catch a properly flown cloaky

I call bullshit. If you're at your keyboard and have the tiniest bit of smarts, I should not be able to pod you after blowing up your barge. If you are not paying attention, though, *pop*.

Bullshit calling from a CODE player? Now thats funny, also sins the gank in question was my first encounter with code so those two didn't show up on local i big flashing red to me. and consider that they locked my pod down before i managed to get into warp (oh no, 3 days in and i completly forgot about spamming warpaway when ship gets killed).

Im sorry i willl not leave the rookie system again, i promisse.

So you're calling others names, for playing the game? How cool you are.

Perhaps it's just easier for you, and us, to realise that you're a sperging drama queen and leave it at that. Adapt and overcome, or don't.

I stopped reading there. I don't think you've learned a thing.

Good luck and fly safe.
