Player Features and Ideas Discussion

The thing you are missing is that its not about the game's original content and what it is meant to be. Its about making the game fun and interactive for all. CCP has every right to change a game mechanic that will make them more money. Both through more NPC related kills and happier solo / small gangs players.

Now that they are coming out with clone states, their will be a lot of new first time players. CCP definitely doesn't want to push these players out of the game. This change is beneficial in making CCP more money, bottom line.

Oh god. Now you think likes mean something.

Hang on. I'll go like all your posts. I still think they are stupid and ridiculous and extremely weak, but that's the choice I have, to like rubbish posts anyway. Likes mean absolutely squat, and they certainly don't mean an argument is good. It could very well be liked by other idiots.

As per the edit I made above, if a players accepts this warning:

and then dies, their responsibility.

Edit:

You just went from 3 to 22 likes after that run. You must feel like a total pro game designer now. Go you.

Good luck with that. This from the CSM Minutes just released:

Mr Hyde brought up the topic of Interdiction and Nullification. He asked whether there was any consideration to making a difference between the anchored bubbles and the other types of bubbles. This would allow for nullification to then work against only anchored bubbles. This means that manned gatecamps can counter groups that currently just slip through, encouraging people to gate camp again.

Nullsec focused, not lowsec; however there is no difference in the concept of gatecamping in low or null. If members of the CSM are trying to find ways to encourage gate camping, then us randoms in the forum are pushing water up hill against that.

If you want visibility though, you need to post it on Reddit, not here. There isn't anywhere near the visibility here that you expect.

This guy is priceless.

First he wants +5 WCS now he wants NPC to crash gates for him.


To bad botting isn't allowed. He'd be all over that.

Why do you insist on making threads that suggest transforming New Eden into a hand-holdy, theme-parky kind of place?


GTFO and take your toxic electrons with you, kindly


Ironically, Erich is no Einstein when it comes to EVE.

This may have something to do with the endless tears - four ships and two pods lost in Tama on the same day! Haw, haw

Read the first page scanned the rest.

One terrible aspect of this that I have not seen addressed is the simple fact that this would (at least temporarily) replace an impassable player created gate camp with a nearly impassable NPC gate camp, here is an example.

The NPC have grown strong enough that a 5 ship player gate camp cannot stay in the area so they leave.
Just a few moments later one of those new players the OP is so concerned about jumps solo into this angry hornets nest of NPC on his way to his first ever faction war encounter and what happens to him?
Do the NPC ignore him?
Do they kill him instantly because he has no prayer of tanking the damage even long enough to warp away.
Can he even warp away or would these NPC have scrams?
If he dies to the NPC is that really any different than dying to a player group?

A personal story to relate that may apply to these situations. This characters first ever low sec journey ended at the high to low gate due to a gate camp. The folks that destroyed my shiny new ship then sat there for 30 minutes protecting my pod from all comers while we talked in local about what I could have done differently and about game play options that I never knew existed. Would the NPC have sat at that gate and talk to me?

At the end -1 to your idea.
I understand what you want to achieve but your idea will do nothing to solve the problems you are trying to solve.

Yes, but only because all the posts saying that your idea is terrible are getting "liked." That's not a ringing endorsement of your idea.
