Radical	Posted - 2003.06.26 11:33:00 - [1] I find it funny that most people are complaining about leaving after a few weeks of play, I dont know how long this game has been out in states but I doubt its been more than 1-2 months. Everyone complains that all they do is mine and not make enough money and they want there battleships now. Someone mentioned that if you trained all skills to lvl 5 it would take 17 years of real life training to do it. yet after 1 month people are saying i have it all im leaving or I dont have it all im leaving. online games are not about power playing for 1 month and having it all, its about finding a game settling down with it and its players and playing over a 1-2 year period building up. You cannot expect to play this game for 1 month and have a cruiser or battleship, I have been playing for 11 days now and still only have a 2 frigates mainly caus i keep restarting now that I know what i am doing 1 do have 1 mil cash but still along way off a cruiser. I am aware that mining is boring thats why i started 2 characters - 1 pure skilled miner with astrogeology - and 1 pure fighting charcter with lvl 4 frigate all the cash I get I give to my fighter and go around killing NPC pirates I made 200k in about 2-3 hours of killing 0.5 -0.3 system pirates and selling there loot. if I need more cash I load up my miner and mine kernite is a system no one comes to and sell it. in 2 days of doing this - as my 2 new charcters are only 2 days old i made up all the cash I lost on my other charcters I started with 200k on these 2 alts i know have 2 frigates / skill s/ equipment and 1 mil cash. I intend to join a corp when the fighting of npc pirates were off in a few days or a week. this is my first real chance to go hunt since day 1. I am also aware that there are people out ther ein battleships and heaps of cash etc but come on these people have friends that work together to earn great cash and were probably in beta and know what there doing. Content will come its still month 1 for me so I am conent to still play and pay and hold out to see what comes - I read that there are 25 or so new ships going to be added soon, that alone would be worth seeing. The one and only thing i feel they need to focus on above all others things are the factory & science slots - something needs to be nerfed there. no unlimited renting. other than that I think its coming along nicely, I even heard MOO got bicthed slapped back to the stone age. but true enough we need them in game / or else who would we fight. I heard that there members are down from 39 to 19 and they still are not recruiting on the HQ section, they should open up recruiting to let all the would be pirates join up to form 1 big pirate corp. right now there are so many 1-2 man pirate corps they should all merge. if you merged all would be pirates into moo and it rose from 19 to 100 - that would be a true enemy we could all strive for to fight against. This game WILL get boring if there are no enemies to defeat - MOO is essential they just need to STOP being so ******* arogant and let people join them and help. anyway I hope you people stop whinning about lack of cash after 1 day of play this is a long term game.

Radical	Posted - 2003.06.27 12:10:00 - [3] I think we are getting a bit off topic, most of you are staying with it thoe, this isnt about exploits I was just talking about this game doesnt start and end in 1 month just caus you got a cruiser. I feel MOO - ARE!! essential to the game or to be more precise Pirates are - moo just happen to lead in this area. without real life pirates to fight when we get cruisers & BS's we will get bored. I do feel MOO does need to have a rethink about how they currently play, im sure they benefit highly buy sitting still in 1 place and killing all they see - BUT! we are not afraid of them vaus we know were they will be at any given time - they should roam around making us be more wary of being alone and without cruiser / BS backup. This will force people to stop arming cruisers / BS's with mining lasers and prepare to defend them sleves at a given moment. imagine - a whole corp of 20-50 people in there ships outfitted with mining lasers a couple of cruisers for backup for NPC pirates mining a field , all of a sudden in come 20 MOO and wipes out 1/4 of em. is'nt that what pirating is about roaming around looking for the mother load, not sitting still were everyone knows were you are and waiting for a noob bantam or badger to come flying by and being destroyed. Go roaming make us all scared of everysystem not just - passari & mara. invite more people into Moo - consolidate the small 2 man pirate corps, FORCE US ALL to adjust to you roaming around that will change everything. I think if you did this moo got a huge pirate corp going formed 10 sqauds of 10 men in each with BS/ cruiser mix and fly around diff systems so 10 systems at once beiung 10 groups of you that would stir things up. Maybe start a 2nd corp full of spies and information gatherers - by being in a 2nd corp not MOO they wont be attacked on site. And they could go roaming around 1 man each looking for hot spots of corps mining op's informing the main MOo party to swoop in. Come on I think you see what I am saying, I had my nive fighter frigate destroyed by you guys and even my Badger - but I dont mind, like a normal smart player I was insured I got back 95% of my money so no big deal. I am all for you guys pirating - just pirate smarter to make us all play different. PS ( sorry for long posts, I find it hard to end posts I keep finding things to say )
