I dont get it. Why do i have to pay tax to a corp that i dont benefit from. I dont understand why players can just be rogue and not tied to any corp if they dont want to be doesnt make sense.

You do benefit from being in an NPC corp. Probably the most important advantage you have is that other people cannot declare war on your corp which means that, other than suicide-ganking, your ships are really quite safe in high-sec.

Players should be able to 'go rogue' and be members of no corp, effectively going 'off grid'.

Ships in Eve are fitted with transponders which log your use of gates and which link your current clone to the clone network. Players should be able to remove the transponder or replace it with a fake of some kind. Without this transponder you would not appear in local and if you were pod killed you wouldn't wake up in the medical clone unless it was in the same system. You would be permanently dead, effectively biomassed. But you wouldn't appear in local, which would be great for some players.

NPC corps should be more interesting. It should be possible to war dec an NPC corp thereby putting your player corp at war with the NPC corp and its allies. You wouldn't be able to use their stations nor agents etc, you would be shot at by NPC navy units, they may even use cynos and hotdrop cap fleets on you (its their space, they can use caps and supers in their space). But you would be able to shoot at NPC corp members without CONCORD intervention. And if you could bring down their caps and supers you would have some good loot and salvage.

This should be hard core enough?

Just create your own corp, recruit some people and have fun. But don't hire the corp thief cuz if you do, we gonna tell you that you should have stayed solo.

Im not saying i dont want to be in a corp because i am on my main i just feel it should be an option in eve.

Create a corp with the same name as your character; then don't recruit anyone, set your taxes to zero. There, you are rogue.

With a one time, 1.5m admin fee, ofc.

You do benefit from NPC corps. War-dec protection. If 11% is too expensive, make your own corp.

50 mil fee to wardec IS wardec protection.

This is a terrible game to play by yourself.

i dont get it, why would you pay to play an MMO by yourself....

What, is this?

the op is not asking how to play solo or how to avoid corp taxes.
op is asking why a pod pilot has to be in a corp.

Of course one can avoid corp taxes and other bull**** by forming its own corp. However, why should ve have a corp tag?
Is there any explanation for this?
we do not have to be in an alliance, so why do we have to be in a corp?

btw, playing solo has nothing do to with joining a corporation. You can play solo while youre in a corp and you can play with other people while youre not in a corp.

the database says no.

What happened was that CCP listened to the whiny forum warriors a while back and jacked the NPC corp tax rate up to satisfy the cry of "make the NPC players join a corp!!" The idea was to make them leave the protection of NPC corps so they could be war decced. Thankfully CCP has resisted the cries of "move lvl 4's to low sec" among other similar requests. CCP needs to implement some sort of voting system available to ALL players. Something that they need to do, or they can see when they log in. These forums do not represent the entire Eve community, yet they seem to base their decisions on the raucous cries of a few individuals. And saying that the CSM represents the players is incorrect. The CSM represents the people in this forum. That's it. General discussion seems to drive the direction of the game. It has seemed this way since day one.

TL;DR - If you make enough noise in GD and go get drunk with the devs at Fanfest, you can affect the feel of the sand in the sandbox.

...please post sensibly, thank you

You must be new here

Why must i be in a Corp?

Funny thread. Not one person answered the OP's question. Well, one person tried with some role-playing nonsense.

the database says no.
