EVE General Discussion

I only read the first page, so sry if I'm echoing someone else.

And sry to 'trample' a bit on the majority line of thinking (or it seems like it)

But I'm a 'new player' , I played 2 months a few years ago and am back (unrelated), and have 0 desire to do those dailies. I have a 500k sp injector sitting in my stuff I can claim, unused. Why? I wouldnt even know where or what to use it own. I'm learning the game. And real NEW player, would be in the same boat. There's very LITTLE incentive for us to try and max out SP gains when it isn't even clear what the whole deal about sp is in the first place. We're way too preoccupied by missions, combat sites, exploration, low-sec/high-sec/null-sec, inventions, the market, mining, salvaging, ghost sites (i can keep going for a while....)

Most of the people that are going to jump unto those sps are non-newb players. Those either at the top that are panicking they won't stay on top much longer, or those mid-pack and above that want to reach the top.

So stop saying its too lure in new players and that new players are bad etc... new players are the best thing that can happen to EVE. CCP is milking YOU. They know their player base. They know you like the math, that you counted and added the numbers up, and that you now feel obligated to go and do the dailys and buy the injectors.

So really,..... the dailies arent bad, just dont do them. Stop feeling obliged to do them, you arent. And if someone does them... so what? Don't you want more players with stupid expensive ships to fight, more great wars, more great battles.

I'm thinking this is especially alluring to risky players that lose skills getting blown up in T3s (heard you lose skills when you die in those, not sure) - this makes things faster for them to get their skills back.


Why all the hate on this? What does it REALLY change?? Noobs are NOT benifiting from this, believe me. New alts from vet players are.

This +1 ... there's literally nothing I have to add to this post.

I'm getting the idea that you find every post you make to be an epiphany or a revelation to someone.
You probably stare at yourself in the mirror, don't you?

I was just curious if you'd admit to being full of yourself.
This is usually where I'd make a clever jab but I want to see where this is going first.

I don't see why it would offend me.
You seem to be the only person with that much faith in yourself. Rock on, spaceman.

You're cute.
I'd lock you in my closet and beat you randomly throughout the day.
Doesn't that sound nice?

You should have seen the ruckus they did when they announced the Skill Injectors. Many people deleted their characters out of disgust, others said it would kill EVE.

Bunch of drama llamas!

And while you as a new player don't fully appreciate the potential and usefulness of Skill Points, down the line in the mid-game of your career you will be scrounging for them and looking back in regret at some of your earlier career choices.

I happen to think you're just a bitter self entitled vet hiding behind a noob account..but what do I know?

Pavlov's Dogs are drooling like mad.
"But I don't want to do dailies."
And yet some unknown force causes them to drool uncontrollably.
Exercise free will

or

DROOL DOGS DROOL !!!!!!

I don't see a problem with it. Giving people a reason to log in can't be bad.

It is even a well balanced idea as It will be more helpful to new players than older players and is accessible to everyone.


10k SP to a beginner who just needs to fit a module so they can do a mission or mine a rock a bit faster is good for the beginner and doesn't hurt anyone.

Older players will get the odd 45 day skill trained up few days faster - Not really a big deal.
