The big sov holding alliances are partly to blame, they seem to have become the biggest carebears in EVE, which probably explains why so many people are gankfesting hisec because the alliances don't want to actual upset their status quo and starving players of meaningful pew pew.
The best thing they could do for EVE is remove the sec system entirely, carebears develop an irrational fear of lowsec leaving it a wasteground, and bubblecamps were so lol overpowered it discouraged all but experienced fleets from roaming nullsec.
If we had one big free for all space then at least people would start with the right mentality that it can kick off anywhere and not get into a comfortable isk grinding habit where every risk should be nullified by the devs.
This is meant to be an mmo, if people want to just run missions or mine solo CCP should just release a standalone offline game for them rather than rewrite the mechanics every 5 minutes and spoil the game for everyone who comes he for a massive multiplayer online experience, with all the human asshattery that entails.

EVE has been one of the top rated MMOs for over a decade. What exactly do you mean by "they can't keep new subscribers"?
And EVE is built on the idea of warfare, not about evenly matched fights. The fight is determined before you activate any modules most of the time. It's about intel/preparation more than the actual battle. |

Not to people who actually like it. I love how in EVE I'm the captain of a ship rather than it's pilot like in Elite. The UI and how you control avatars (ships) reflects this, unlike in other games where I'm forced to use that aweful WASD crap.
Some people really can't understand that their own preferences aren't universal. |

Actually, I'd argue that it does. No one goes into a battle with something they will definitely lose against. I wouldn't take a Nemesis against an Astero, but I sure as hell will take it against an Imicus, Helios or a Cheetah.
Suicide ganking in hisec isn't punished enough when you have a group of Catalysts that can harass a freighter for over an hour and ther is literally nothing that the other pilot can do. Bumping is a flawed system that only exists so that the devs don't have to deal with collision damage.
And you have the terrorist organization known as CODE. who likes to think they are upholding the laws of James 315 but really are left-wing nutcases who are taking his teachings out of context.
While it can be dangerous for these people to operate, if CCP wanted everything to be an FFA shitstorm, there would be no HiSec; there would be no CONCORD. Everyone likes to tout how "this is the way the game is to be played" until we get to hisec where everyone ignores that philosophy and wants to change it to fit in their image.
Don't get me wrong, I am a PvP'er (not on this account, but I'm not letting anyone know my main...lol) and I pick on people (I buy PLEX just so I can be a **** without having to do extra work for it), but I don't have this deluded idea that I should be able to do so in HiSec; I only engage in LS, NS and WH's.
While there is an underlying philosophy of everything is PvP, the reason HiSec and CONCORD exists is to reduce the amount of douche-baggery done to people who aren't too keen on being on the receiving end.
But, I know, people don't like to hear all this **** because it erodes their self-imposed views of what Eve Online should be, views they only rely on when it suits them and dismiss other valid aspects of the game when it goes against this view. |

More to the point: so what? Griefing gets you banned, and short of removing the multiplayer bit altogether you've described every multiplayer game. Pretty much every mechanic in an MP game can be used to grief other players, which points to griefing not really being a matter of mechanics at all.
Quote:It punishes you for fighting honorably, and enhances the ability to fight like hyenas. Not really. The game mechanics don't care how you fight. If you choose to fight with a handicap, you are handicapped in the fight. This is such a blindingly obvious tautology that it boggles the mind to think how that could possibly be construed as a problem.
Quote:I mean, how long was it a thing to grief newbs in Jita with can flipping? Probably along the lines of ~0h after release. Partly because can flipping was never griefing; partly because can flipping was never really a thing in Jita; and partly because Jita was never really a newbie-heavy system.
Quote:But challenge one of those "hardcore pvpers" to a fair fight and watch them run for the hills. They would not dare fight anything without a full set of links, boosts, officer gear, and backup on standby if needed. You seem to be describing the GÇ£levelling your RavenGÇ¥ n00b on his first outing without a clue on how to fit for, fly, or plan a combat engagement. Only that kind of player would be idiot enough to use officer gear. Hardcore PvPers are in it for the PvP GÇö not to follow some arbitrary rules. If you want to handicap yourself, then you're free to do so, but it's unrealistic to expect others to do the same, and outright laughable to suggest that this is a mark against them. Na+»vet+¬ isn't a virtue.

Not only are there plenty of things the pilot can do, bumping does not in any way bypass or alter any mechanics. Bumping does not disable warping; it does not alter any stats, attributes, or abilities on the targeted ship; above all, it does not violate any non-encoded rules of the game, such as the rule against harassment. So no, it is not ludicrous that CCP says it is valid: there is nothing to even remotely suggest that it wouldn't be.
Quote:Or the broken WarDec system that PIRAT abuses so they can take a **** on people who are moving goods around because they don't want to get into real PvP where they could more likely be at a disadvantage. You realise that wardeccing puts you at possible the most disadvantage imaginable for the attacker, yes? If they wanted to minimise the disadvantage, the wardec system would be the last place to look.
Quote:While there is an underlying philosophy of everything is PvP, the reason HiSec and CONCORD exists is to reduce the amount of douche-baggery done to people who aren't too keen on being on the receiving end. No. None of that is the purpose of highsec. In fact, there is absolutely nothing about highsec or CONCORD that even remotely begins to address that behaviour. Highsec exists to play on the human tendency towards being a cheap bastard and not wanting to waste your stuff over nothing. Sometimes, that gamble pays off; sometimes it does not; sometimes you decide to skew the probabilities of the gamble so massively in the opponent's favour that it would be really stupid of him not to attack you.
It is simply a different kind of gamble than what other parts of space are designed to offer. Choosing to take part in it is completely unrelated to how much of a douche-bag you are, irrespective on which side of the conflict you're on.

I get this feeling you are exaggerating the word "plenty". Bumping keeps you from aligning. In any type of industrial ship, what can you do to stop the one thing to do to get away from the bumpers? Name one thing.

Then that means there is no need for ethics, but the mere fact that there is CONCORD and gate guns tends toward meaning there is some sort of law to uphold and in any civilized world, that would keep your typical person from being an ass. If that wasn't the intention of CONCORD and HiSec, to emulate law and order, then there was no need for them in the first place and should have never been in the game.

For their part, CONCORD and gate guns are there to enforce the costs that create that gamble. They very specifically do not emulate law and order GÇö other entities are around to do that (and, analogous to law enforcement, they're fairly easy to avoid, evade, or just outright beat).

Scale back and start listening to player advice.
And for what it's worth, after being splattered during the tutorials by NPCs because I hadn't seriously played a game since PacMan and Space Invaders, I rolled I think a third alt, undocked and starting shooting other rookies. In a rookie ship. For the explosions. Got concorded, docked, rinsed and repeated until my standings on that alt were trashed. Was quite entertaining tbh, the other rookie seemed to enjoy it too. On my second (or maybe first, fuzzy on this) alt I undocked and saw a can marked FREE STUFF and scurried over to it, and robbed it shamelessly. Then got an aggro timer - which with sound effects on made me jump out of my skin. Spent the next 2 days running around cringing - in all honesty it was a bit disappointing no-one showed up. But still more fun than being squished by NPCs.
We're not all spineless themepark grinders who just want to get the best gear and flounce about smugging at other nerds. You can do that in any number of MMOs.
@ OP - everyone loses ships. For early PVP training any number of player groups (E-Uni, Brave, Test, RVB, FW) can help with shipfits and getting started. But losing is part of the learning curve, and if you take it too hard, you're doing it wrong. Also, you and your friend can practice on the test server (Sisi) where everything is seeded at 100 ISK and there are FFA areas set up.

Amanda Guido wrote:You are correct. Welcome to Eve, a game which caters to cowards and sick online bullies. If you have not noticed Eve has the worst internet community ever in any MMO ever made. They will flame you, call you names, grief you into unsubbing and then send you an ingame mail to rub it in.
It is one of many reasons Eve is on the decline. It simply can't retain new subs, and the old vets are getting tired and leaving because CCP is slowly making changes away from the current system. The meta behind pvp is almost entirely about abusing mechanics or blob warfare; who can bring more guys and fight the dirtiest. But when people stick to high sec because of this flawed system, they are called care bears and flamed.
CCP knows this, but when they try to make any changes, the griefers and bullies cry and burn the Jita statue, chanting "don"t take away my sandbox." It is a catch 22 really.
If you don't believe me, just watch and read the replies I get to this post. Grab your popcorn and enjoy!
People unsub from EvE for the same reasons they unsub from other games. For what-ever reason, they no longer find the game fun. EvE has been around for what, 10+ years? How many other games out there that have been around for as long is increasing membership?
Zero
I've re-upped after a 2 year absence. Yes, I see some things are still around that I find frustrating. When that frustration exceeds my fun, I'll re-evaluate whether to keep shelling out money for my accounts. Just like I do for a host of other games. At some point, I'll take a break, probably to play the next hot flavor of the month game.
And I'll eventually come back. |

who invests their time in a game these days without checking it out on youtube and seeing what people think of it before you drop some cash on it. ya know,, see how game play works, what to expect in game and so on.
so you invest cash and time then what?
it doesn't go as planned so you jump on here and have a whine because shites not getting handed to you on a silver plate.
because someone tried to counter your attack? what? should they just sit there and let you kill them and not use what they've worked hard for in game? are you insane lol
stuff wasn't instant enough for you? hahahaha please
it's a shame the game isn't for you. but get real. such a self entitled little shite hahahahaha
all i read was wah wah wah i want it my way, wah wah wah it's toooooooooooooo hard. wah wah wah i quit. oh and this was for the devs so i posted it public cuz the players are going to give a shite..... wrong.

Would you mind explaining this a bit? The only thing that restricts you from warping is if your ship warp strength is reduced to zero or less. Bumping does not do this. Bumping alters your movement vector and most likely puts you at a decent speed in that direction. This means you are already aligned GÇö perhaps not to what you want to be aligned to, but you are aligned.
Quote:I can see how an industrial ship might be able to cloak + mwd to avoid the bumper, but what options would a freighter pilot have? Perhaps having a friend tag along to web you into warp? You can find something in your new direction of travel to warp to. You can place something (or someone) in the new direction of travel to warp to. You can web-warp. You can counter-bump. You can counter-gank. You can nullify the DPS. You can sneak-tank. You can fit for agility. You can show up followed by a ship that even suggests you're doing any of the above. You can take the road less travelled. You can bypass the regular kill zones with more capable ships.
You can fly not AFK.

Sosa long as you are moving >75% of your ship speed, you are aligned to whatever direction your ship happens to be moving.
The issue for Freighters is they often continue to try to align in a direction they are not moving.
Get a ship out in front of the bump or find a celestial in the direction of movement and the freighter will be able to instantly warp.

My bad. Yeh PC isn't liking the client atm, rebuilding it soon. Corpies made me fuel POS so I'm ignoring them. For a decade or so. Just idling atm seeing what's going on generally. Final year at uni so might sit this one out, not sure yet. It's easy enough to read intermittently whilst studying but a pain to do with the client up on a single screen.

Would you mind explaining this a bit? I can see how an industrial ship might be able to cloak + mwd to avoid the bumper, but what options would a freighter pilot have? Perhaps having a friend tag along to web you into warp? Not that I'm defending any particular point of view, I'm just curious if you have any more creative counters :P Aligning is a vector, not a ship facing. So as long as you are moving >75% of your ship speed, you are aligned to whatever direction your ship happens to be moving. The issue for Freighters is they often continue to try to align in a direction they are not moving. Get a ship out in front of the bump or find a celestial in the direction of movement and the freighter will be able to instantly warp.
most people tend to panic when being bumped. i know i have a time or to. but i've also done the above, and it works great

This isn't quite accurate. I believe it's between 75% & 100%, maybe 125% of your ships max velocity, not 100% sure on the margin. If you are bumped at too high a velocity your ship will be unable to warp until it slows down enough. Which takes a long time for cap ships. |

10+ years reading posts like this.
EVE isn't a easy game or safe game. Can't handle losing your ship, don't play.
That's what makes this game amazing. Try the test server where everything cost 100isk. After a few hours you will get bored at how worthless and meaningless it all is on the test server.
Bunch of cry babies that can't handle a video game... Good luck with life!!!
Been around since the beginning.
