what do you need 250 billion isk for?
seriously, what are you going to do with it? you can't take it with you, you can't sell it
all you can do is spend it, there is no prize for most isk, and you wouldn't be able to beat the top dog anyhow "You were the chosen one Anakin, you were supposed to bring order to the galaxy, not destroy it!" -Obi Wan (Ben) Kenobi -á |

He could spend it all on PLEX, load it all in to a rookie ship then fly around highsec until he gets ganked to create the most spectacular killmail ever. Or self-destruct it to remove them all from the game |

I have always wanted to write to Bill Gates and ask him for $2,000,000 so I can load a Badger Mk II to capacity with PLEX and time how long it takes for me to get popped. |

1. A large number of gankers are -5 by now. Nobody shoots them first. 2. You can shoot them once they go GCC. A nado will kill Cats much faster than the cats will kill the tanked Hulk 3. You can suicide gank them. 4. Lowsec/Null allows you to do exactly what you're asking. -RubyPorto

Are -5 gankers able to be killed on sight by anybody in hisec, before they get GCC? I actually don't know the answer.
If not, isn't it ironic that you can defend yourself better in low/null than high?

My point is, or actually something that's worth discussing is: Should it be possible to mine safely in Highsec, just as it is safe to run Missions ? Or in other words, did CCP intend to make a place where it's perfectly safe to mine ? If not, then you're in most parts right.
Sandbox. "Should' is not important. If someone is making it unsafe, you either find somewhere else to do it, or find a way to deal with the threat. Quote: As a sidenote, i'm not a miner, and actually would recommend to remove Concord altogether, just to be clear on this, if you're talking about a REAL sandbox then remove any NPC restrictions. I just like to see the other side of the argument as well thats all, and i'm ready to be convinced by the opposite if i'm wrong. The style of arguments that most people in here use though shows clearly that they rather bang the wardrums and show their e-peen instead of having an interesting discussion.
I wasn't really aiming most of that at you specifically, sorry. A police force like Concord does actually make sense. I'm not so thrilled with them being invincible, but I spend literally no time in high sec, so I don't really care either way. As far as my argument, it simply boils down to "There is no "should" in Eve". Doesn't matter if highsec should be safe, it isn't. It isn't because a group of corps, using in game resources, have banded together with the intent of making it unsafe, and they are fully within their rights to do so. It is now on the people who take offense to this to muster their own forces and come make us stop. I'll advertise it again, VFK-IV. Deklein. That's where we are. Most of the game hates us, so anyone should be able to form a massive alliance to come and take us out. Don't blame the WarDec mechanics, in null, you don't need to wardec anyone, just fly out here and start shooting. Your force should be far bigger than ours. It would be dead simple to drive us out of eve forever. So come do it. Stop whining and take your game back.
hey looksie, another goonie talking like they are some sort of authority. must run deep in goonie poonie land and yes, that's right I called you a poonie, because the other word for VAG get's edited out. Poonie!

Killing em though is a little harder. Most -5ers learn quick (ie adapt) how to not get killed. |

Yes it's a sandbox but because it is one it gives him and others the choice to mine were ever and how they want. No one group should have the right to dictate how others play their game. You see, in a sandbox, we do have that right. We are stronger. Yeah, he can play however he wants, but that does not mean we are obligated to let him if we don't want to. If he wants to stop us, he shouldn't whine to ccp, he should try playing the game for once and doing something about it. Make a mining corp. Mine with others. Get security and intel. PLAY THE GAME. then why do you solely target miners, you can make more running lvl 4s or doing incursions. You are saying play the game but you target the minority in high sec. Why dont you reign hell on all the "SafeHighSecPubbies" miners mission Runners, incursions etc. But you didnt you chose the soft option because they dont play the way you want and pat yourself on the back. It's like watching a mentally ill child pulling legs off a fly.
Ganking exhumers when we control pretty much all the Technetium is making us way more money than running missions. You really are behind. Besides, who cares? NPCs just respawn anyway. Official Recruiter for GoonSwarm Corporation.

dexington wrote: This is not really a hi vs low sec problem, it's just possible to "exploit" the design of mining barges. Problem is that you can destroy a expensive ship, risk free with ships you get more or less for free. Mining is not exactly a high profit profession in hi-sec, so why should should it be so risky that the only safe why to do it is in low/null sec with corp support?
The word "exploit" is way too overused here. Nothing is being exploited here. Yes, barges and exhumers are expensive. This would presumably be for some rp bullship about expensive and delicate systems being needed to take apart asteroids and transporting them to your hold. More isk doesn't equal more power. Of course a cheap combat ship can pop a mining vessel in no time, it is designed to destroy, and will have a particularly easy time with a piece of manufacturing equipment.
People get the idea that hulks and the like are supposed to be plated with massive amounts of armor, but I don't see why. They're mining vessels, priority would be given to the hold capacity if anything, and besides, yes, an oil rig is made of heavy metal, but try hitting it with a tank shell and look at how long it can hold up under those circumstances.
What is happening is that miners are simply unwilling to adapt to be able to use those vessels. They have been presented a challenge in game, and are now whining for CCP to play the game for them to overcome that challenge. There are ways to mine safely in exhumers.

Well, I did recommend it, but to people not interested in emergent gameplay. I haven't played it, but it looks pretty boring. I don't like being confined to a specific style of play. Eve is a lot more flexible. I usually just play the markets in Eve, which admittedly doesn't take nearly as much time as doing other things, but that is how I choose to play it. I'm pretty busy with real life stuff, but I still enjoy the distraction Even provides, even if only for an hour or two a day. Sorry you don't approve. Even if the gameplay of that other MMO did appeal to me, I wouldn't have the time.
I'm not bitching about anything. I'm responding to people saying that not every eve player is interested in the emergent gameplay emphasized in Eve. Unfortunately for them, that's what Eve is. I think it is perfectly fine to recommend them another game more suitable to their playstyle, and it does not obligate me to go play it as well. It is not my style. You're the one posting vitriolic rants, I'm merely offering suggestions to people who don't seem to enjoy Eve very much.

You're the one posting vitriolic rants, I'm merely offering suggestions to people who don't seem to enjoy Eve very much. Quote: Trying to get people to care enough about goons to do something is impossible. Why bother interrupting your own game for a group that will self destruct anyway. Burn Jita, the silly war decs and everything else Goonswarm has done since 10,058 voices cried out and were suddenly silenced, has shown us all that you are teetering on the edge. Boredom is your enemy and that enemy is winning. Your membership has lost faith in their leader and he is scrambling to show he is still in charge, it all just looks like the death rattle of your alliance.
People have been saying this the entirety of the time Goonswarm has been in Eve. Yeah but before Goonswarm have had challenges like BoB ect... now you are having to make your own. I'm not saying it will be quick, the signs are there but it will take years for it to happen, unless something changes.
As too the other the population figures come November, December will tell whether CCP should continue to allow this emergent game play to its current level or whether it is just costing them money and in the long run us the game.
Personally I try to enter empire as rarely as possible, I have seen sewers with friendlier atmospheres than Empire is now. The biggest problem is, that is where CCP get most of their money from to pay for our game.
As to recent exploits abused by people, personally I wish that kind of emergent game play would roll over and die. I can think of older bugs that could do with that sort of attention rather than wasting resources on silly bugs that never should have made it into the game but that are less important to fix than some older ones. They should have just posted a blog saying bug as soon as they saw it and biomassed any characters after that that exploited it and moved on. Any Spelling, gramatical and literary errors made by me are included free of charge.

Quote:If you pay attention, and youGÇÖve got your wits about you, you can avoid people coming in and ganking, a survival of the fittest kind of thing, and people are now able to actually make a much better living from mining because of things like Hulkageddon and Burn Jita, because minerals are more expensive
I get absolutely sick to my stomach when I hear this trash.
The mineral market in eve was ****** for years.
Then it crept upa bit.
Then speculation for the drone nerf patch shot mineral prices up. And the artificial nocxium ceiling went away.
They have come down since then.
Hulkodouchin did **** all to the price of minerals. |
