OK, so I'm pretty experienced in EVE (well, my main is) and I've been there, done that mostly... Been in pirate corps, empire wars, 0.0 alliances etc...
So now I'm in a corp with a great bunch of guys (15-20 of us, all with quite a lot of SPs), but we seem to be finding it really hard to get something interesting to do. We've tried war deccing alliances (ends in either blob warfare which is fair enough or killing noobs - both are boring).
We tried joining 0.0 alliances and got immediately turned off by POS wars...
Low sec piracy is pretty much dead these days, well not dead, but there's little reason for anyone to do anything in low sec these days.
So, we find ourselves at an impass - lots of guns, lots of desire to fire them but no real drive that says - go shoot these guys or go help these guys...
I've deliberately posted with an alt to get some unbiased opinions/thoughts...
Give me your best

The good news is that CCP wants to do something about the low sec systems to get them more interesting.
The bad news is, if you are not interested in mining, exploration & surveys u just need an EVE brake
Have you tried drug running & making?

Hello Sledge, I would say the only real satisfaction you guys might get these days (and your right your in a midlife crisis) is that you find something to fight for. This does not include things like I want to shoot pos, BOB, that outpost, or that Titan. Once you have done those then your back to square one. If you want something lasting to strive for then you got to build something. I am not talking ships/ammo/rigs.
I am talking in the sense of what do you as a group want to look like in a year. Do you want to grow or do you want to stay small? Do you want to be part of a larger group? If so what kind of group would work well for you? The game in the end only will hold you in terms of the people you fly with and what they are trying to attain as a group.
Have an internal discussion on what you like doing best and what you would like to be doing a year from now. If you can get certain answers on paper and come to a concensus then you can steer your ship in the right direction. Good luck to you and your guys. Greets, Erwin

Erwin, you're completely right, it's just finding the cause that's the difficult thing.

Though i find that to be a heart-warming speech, a year from now isn't right now.
Now, thinking about what kind of a REAL empire you could carve out of space in a year, i've always found that exciting. But it would appear your either tired of empires, or tired of not being able to shoot guns. Don't get INVOLVED in empire wars, BE one. 15-20 firends right? Sounds like just the right amount of people for a revolution. Look up a really good meaning for the word REVOLUTION, and i think you'll get jitters.
I used to play "Gaia online" alot way back when. At one point, you just tend to get tired of things going on and on and on...just be glad there still ARE wars in eve. In gaia, guild wars have all but died out i hear. That's when i left. When that kind of peace-talk crap was going on. I like killing things too. Now, do you have charismatic peple? People who can talk and get other's to really listen? Find a cause, even if it's a small one. Small causes often turn into raging wildfires if they are made out well enough. You already have the firepower to bring something down to china-town. Why not find the largest shared ideal on EVE, an ideal that drives people, the things that keep people locked up in their little worlds doing what they do day after day to make money...
And bring that ideal down to china-town, guns blazing.
Do the biggest thing you can to make a name for yourself. Become legends. Find the largest most*****y corporation bastards there are, the ones that get reported in the EVE news. And change headlines. I want to see your names as the new up-coming power in EVE. The new Muad'ibs and Car'a'carns, and cooramoors, and annointed of god! Start a Jihad, name yourselves the new god-Emporer's of Dune and see who tries to bring you down off your pedestal.
I would **** my pants to fly into a certain sector of space and find that it was truly and completely under the control of only one group of people. Find a sector of space with fantasical sights and rats for farming/salvage/materials, amazingly good mineral reserves/resources of all kinds. And build something devestating...somrthing no one knows about until it's unleashed. Secreted so tight not even a divine being could peep through the *****s.
Then, unleash your weapon and fury across space. Unexpectedly. i've heard that the first doomsday weapon was acivated not too long ago by a titan only a few hours out of port before it was destroyed. I heard about it through the website news, that it was a grand an amazingly fantastical battle. What would happen if it happened again, tenfold, at crucial points in every empires/alliances/corporations space? And so quick that if a witness got away, he woulden't even be able to utter your name to the CCP reporters? And then would come the attacks, so quick and swift and devestating, with so much firepower unleashed as to rock the nations of EVE on their heels? Without even a moments warning. No bounties, no witnesses left with even a pod to fly away? nothing to say it was you or the new legendary pilots who had wrought the first waves of chaos.
Do something no one expects. And play it out perfectly. And when empires lay in ruins, CCP doesen't even know what happened to their CONCORD fleets, corporations lay weeping, alliances have no space to speak of and POS stuctures are either non-existent or the only safe havens...EVE mail me, so i can laugh it all off and have the most dangerous secret of EVE stuck in my head. That i inspired the greatest castastrophe ever to be visited upon the universe of EVE.
Good luck, safe flying.

I want to do just that, its just that a 2 week old pilot in a mining barge really cant do much. I want to one day build up a corporation that will one day conquer the whole galaxy under one banner. Only the rookie zones will be safe. And one more question, how does the concord force work? If I took a titan and attacked a rookie zone, would every concord ship in the region come to me or would a large # of ships spawn out of nowhere to take it down? What if I could overwhelm concord's forces? That would explain how far you could actually go.

I woulden't exactly say uniting the universe is going to happen. Destroying it would be an easier time of it than uniting it. But if you could even unite enough people to truly conquer a radius of 5 systems in every direction, i would join your corporation no matter how messy it was. Conquer as in no one get's in to any of those systems without you knowing. No Concord, no other corp offices, no access exept to corp membs and whoever was on your whitelist. An actual little empire. I would p-iss myself if i ran into even one system that was fully and truly belonging to one corporation. Policed by your own membs. All trade managed and directed at your CEO's whims. It would be amazing. _______________________________________________ In Nomine Patris, Et Fili, Et Spiritus Sancti~ Amen |

Ok several things you can do. But try to aim at something that motivates you. Its really hard for other peopl to usggest things for you motivation. But below are a list of things.
Become MERCenary corp or join one of the bigger mercenary corps.
Go out and claim a system with NPC stations in 0.0 and kille everybody trying to get in there regardles of who they are(alternative to POS wars)
Take a break enlist for the army get enough of war and decide to be miners of veld in niyabainen. (ok... no chance but it was fun suggesting anyways)
Join a bigger 0.0 corp that focuses on pvp and is not part of an alliance and let the leadership there determine your current targets and goals.
Most importantly you have to find out who is the enemy, who is your friends, who are the good guys etc. doing this kind of analysis on forehand will probably help you narrow in your possibilities.

heyy sledge Dread Elite and our small but elite pvp alliance live in the south with alot of action we have little blue and more then enough targets to go around we dont belive in sitting in a pos all day and refuel and to defend it we like to pop pos's for fun we basicly look for pos's by who ever to pop and loot and we gate camp in 0.0 from time to time but most of the time we jump into gate camped systems and break it up even if were out numbered sometimes

Sledge,
Well if your not looking for total blob warfare and want targets and something new...maybe our good corp and your guys could be a great corp together. Majestic is part of oxide alliance and we are located in a area with lots of skilled pvp combat mostly with outbreak(toxin) which are great pvpers and offer great fights without to much pos and blobs here in the new space it might be the place your looking for.
Here is my normal ad: Majestic Technology is looking for pvp pilots!!
We are growing and we have plenty of miners and industrialists so I am actively working on a new wing of our corporation. We looking to find some good skilled pvp pilots to lead our minerĘs alts and team up with other skilled pvp pilots in our alliance. We have some skilled pvpers in the Corporation already but, I would love to have a core group (10-20) of very skilled pvp pilots.
What we offer-
-Target rich environment (plenty of RED targets) -Fleet operations (alliance and Joint alliance) -Squad operations (daily) 5-10 ship groups -T1 Frigs and Cruisers to members -Team speak on alliance server -Mods and AMMO we make them and make sure you can use them to destroy our enemies -Kill board -0.0 POS for Ratting, Mining and production needs -We have active war with Privateers and currently involved in the Northern conflict -Access to outposts with jumpclones
What we are looking for?
-Maturity and fun open to ship loss and helping the team when needed. -We are looking for pilots with at least 4 million skill points -No pirates, Thieves or isk farmers -All time zones please Euro/US/Aussie -Active pilots we are looking for people that like to play eve often - Pvp leaders that want to lead groups - Command ship pilots and carrier pilots
We have offices all over the galaxy where you can apply.
If you are interested Contact Myself, Evilone or Terfy in game or via eve mail

Find a system, somewhere you like. With a nice station, and somewhere to put your hat down.
Tell everyone in that system that it's now yours. All traffic and market deals are now going through you. Get them to pay you protection money. And if someone comes with a bigger force. Bring the bigger guns (worst case scenario, call your friends).
After a long time, incorporate the good people you're protecting into your deal. Teach the recruits how to become wiseguys. Cut them in on your business. Give them tasks, like... "shoot that ***** Guillermo, he didn't pay his fee this week".
Then when things are rolling, expand your turf. But in essence, get someone else to do your dirty work (hauling/mining/building). If they are ... reluctant, give'em an offer they'a cannot refuse.
[OMG! CURRENTLY RECRUITING!] |
