I ain't worried about the content part. If you haven't played for years, and look at all this from the "just walkin' in" side, there's a LOT of content in EVE. What worries me is rushing to generate content. Good games...and this is where EVE shines as a game...aren't easy to create. So, don't rush it, guys. I know when it's out, it'll be good. So, don't hurry on my account.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

We all know who you are because of your bad posting. How many more weeks left on your sub?

yeah wow look all those very expensive faction and meta 4 modules

experimental 100mn microwarpdrive I how can we possibly sustain these losses

man, a tier 3 battleship fleet
truly goons live like kings
i mean i lead an elite lifestyle flying the flagship of the Cascade Money Fleet (i trimark rigged my scorch geddon)
but sometimes i wonder what it'd be like to make the move to... tier 3


My concern isn't the cost in the least. It's the time it takes to train with regard to newer players. Doesn't matter either, but for those people that CCP is trying to hook on eve, yeah, it can potentially matter. At least to draw out the time for someone to connect with them. And as more people have run incursions, we'll see even more Bhaalgorn/Vindicator/Machariel faction 1337 fleets. I applaud those highly inclusive alliances with less regard to ship fittings, I really do. But, I have seen a trend in how successful a fleet is based on it's organization. There's a reason there's a a ton of tengus participating in that killmail. :)


Fantastic comments, particular thanks to Thelron, Seismic, and Shivus.
I'd really like to drive home this point the most:
Eventually and not rushed, provide content where EVE says yes and my peers cannot say NO. (Or bully people for that matter, you know who you are.)

Interesting. This is good to know when the time comes to maintain my ISK efficiency.
