DarkAegix wrote: I'd like to get into some solo wormhole PVE. Unfortunately, it takes a while to find a soloable WH, and even then it could be dangerous and less profitable than incursions/missions. I want to explore WHs for story, new content and to mix things up, while making a bit of ISK on the side.
This is exactly what I did some time ago. Bought a small tower, a month worth of fuel, a SMA, a hangar and some guns. Took me about a week to find a C1. Cramped everything into a rigged hauler, set up the POS and started the fun. Of course, it is less profitable than grinding lvl 4's. But it's not about the profit, it is about having a good time playing a game. Does that mean I'm filthy rich? Erhm.....no. But Isk are ones and zero's on a computer to me, so I tend to be 'a bit' less careful about spending them than I would RL currency....
But back to the topic and the question asked:
I would love visiting all Landmarks in EvE just once, as much as I would love to visit every system there is in KS. (Yes I know it has been done before, but that's not the point.) I would like to set up trade routes to low/null sec. Going to low-sec and just pick a fight, win or lose doesn't really matter. (No, that doesn't mean floating in space and asking in local: 'please kill me...') And probably a lot more I can't think of right now.
Yes, all those things are doable/possible, I just never have come around doing them. In the future, I promise myself, I will.....
Here I used to have a sig of our old Camper in space. Now it is disregarded as being the wrong format. Looking out the window I see one thing: Nothing wrong with the format of our Camper! Silly CCP......

As these ultimate weapons of Our lady of Enema work their way into the "arses" of Zero, SUBSCRIPTIONS WILL RISE as new players are incentivised to join Eve and celebrate the tears.
Only the truly strong in zero will be able to maintain anything larger than small holdings and the economy of Eve will be thrown into high gear as the need for isk and minerals rises to replace the losses.
Of course the response will be that "Nobody will build anything but Ibises with Nova Bombs then." But this shouldn't be the case if CCP sticks to the principle that EACH SHIP MUST HAVE PURPOSE... so perhaps you must have a Titan to manintain the Sovereignty markers.. and perhaps only Dreads should defend Titans.... and perhaps only Battleships to defend Dreads.... and so on down the line...
except that the occasional Nove Bomb comes along to keep the entire situation in balance no matter what the size of the alliance... Total war... total mayhem.. total PvP... AND RISING SUBSCRIPTIONS ! Only goons are allowed to be that stupid. Stop it. Just stop. Bad.
Why are the Goons "special"? Why should they be the only ones allowed any fun? I thought Eve was supposed to have a "counter" for each force in game. Where is the counter to the Goons? Is it not logical that the natural counter to massive numbers and massive ships would be the one noob with a Nova Bomb? Is not the clearly poetic solution to gatecamps and choke points the elegant enema that occurs when one jumps through the gate and dorps the Big One that goes off in seconds and clears the room?
Would the tears not be tasty? The subscription rate would be strong with this idea. |

I always wanted to head up a lowsec criminal organisation, but lowsec really doesnt have any use apart from ganking people, lowsec ALMOST got somewhere, tehn just as it seemed to be getting off the ground as a great fun place capital blobs came into fashion in lowsec and the supers started turning up in pairs, unsupported and crushing any fight that was going on.
I wrote a long and successful lowsec thread in the assembly hall quite a while back called 'Outlaw' it had a huge support following but led absolutely nowhere as nothing was taken up.
Since lowsec became so drab and useless, we went to 0.0, we are pretty successful there, but lowsec as its own game had such promise... Maybe one day. |

When i came back last time, i promised myself to try something new. So off to wormholes it was. It turned out ofcourse that wormholes are boring. The pve is just a big slow pain in the ass, while the pvp is just silly. Either you ganks someone doing anoms, or most likely you try to kill them at a wormhole, wich, if you ever take a trip into a wormhole, you will discover that is just pointless because once you start taking damage, you just jump trough and fly away.
And thats what you can do in a wormhole. theres nothing more.
So, i made a few alts to run missions, but thats boring too.
So i joined a 0.0 alliance, but after two fleet ops, one were i participated in killing a titan, i had to leave because i really dont get any joy from being in a fleet fight with 800 other people. Theres no tactic, just point and click on the target then wait.
So i left 0.0, and instantly felt i got my personality and freedom back. I was no longer a sheep.
I tried running cosmos missions, but it bored me.
I tried running cosmos sites, but it felt pointless

So you are beginning to warm up to the idea, eh ?
BUT, it is essential that the Nova Bombs originate in level 1 missions (which can only be accessed by PAID SUBSCRIBED PLAYERS) to control their frequency of appearance and they must be launchable from low skill ships to make certain the Noobs have access to them .
Other than that, why not, I like your train of thought anyway. |

I would say experience living in a WH for awhile alongside of doing more exploring. Also, do Incursions as I never really have. Running one site when the Incursion was nearly done and having a lot of people there didn't really seem anything beyond doing an easy complex.
Although the first two are at the top of my list, I've spent most of my time in EVE living in NullSec as corp leadership and honestly it's a full time job in itself. I don't have a whole lot of ISK to afford multiple accounts so running off and doing that has never been an option for me. I could quit and leave this whole life I've made for myself behind, but I could never do that as I can't imagine myself finding another group of guys and gals that I enjoy spending time with. |

Aims of EvE/Stuff to try out:-
-Roaming around lowsec / some lowsec 'zone control' stuff. -For low sec to have a purpose, other than roaming for ***** and giggles. -Wouldn't mind trying out faction warfare, again if there was a good reason for it. love the idea, don't like what I see in the game. -Find myself a nice corp to be part of. -Ship spin in a carrier. -Use railguns on ships bigger than my beloved Harpy. -Khanid torp Abaddon -Badass Railgun BS -Destroy a Supercarrier in a frigate! |

Lots of other posts have hit on this same theme, but yours was nearest at hand so I went for the easy quote. Here's the thing that lots of people are dancing around in this thread w/o actually hitting the nail on the head: this game is BORING. Mind-numbingly, soul-crushingly boring. Yes, there are strains of brilliance in the design. Yes, Eve offers some of the most epic PvP in the MMO industry. Unfortunately, those strains of brilliant design, and those moments of epic PvP, make up less than ten percent of the overall experience.
Now I'm not a game designer. I don't know how to tell you to do your job, Zulu. But I can tell you this: you're game is boring as hell. You guys need to figure out a way to bring back FUN. Period. Make the damned game fun. Or people are not going to stick around. |

I would like to warp through a titan with my frigate and leave a hole behind.

- be someone fighting in a capital slugfest. Back then I didn't have the skills. But just being support in those 2 hour dread fights was amazing. - holding sov and an outpost with a 300 man alliance. Totally without being a pet/renter. The lack of this completely ruined EVE. If you want a lot of karma to come back, make small alliances able to hold stations.
The other stuff I pretty much did. Aside from flying a Titan, but I'm too lazy to make more isk. |

What I'd like to see is some sort of a way to have a feasible small base of operations that can store a few ships and some loot. Setting up a pos takes a few hours and the orca option needs a second account. Like renting a U-Haul trailer full of ammo, ships and supplies and hitching it to your Raven? In short, Yes. Alternatively, smallholdings sound like a viable way to do this, from what Greyscale had said.

- Exploration in LowSec / NullSec
- Go roaming in a Battleship fleet

Other stuff that sounds cool:
- Make an alt for Manufacturing and Invention
- Joining ISD's IC or Mercury divisions

I'd have liked to try a small scale Capital slugfest.
I think I missed my window though, since I think nowadays "small" scale cap fights too often end up in a ganked by superblob fight.
I guess pre-titan days would have been most fun times for cap fights. not like now with poweblocks, batphones and superblobs.
Other thing I'd like to try is Gas mining/drug production - dunno why, but not got round to it yet - think it is that whole risk/reward thing, lack of places to do it and pretty hard to do solo.

I always wanted to be a bounty hunter and make my living off PvP exclusively.
But it turns out this game doesn't have a viable bounty system.
Short of that I wanted to be a despicable pirate and make my living selling off the loot of ships I destroy.
But it turns out if I'm too despicable, I can't replace my losses without an alt account because the bastard police won't let me back to the markets.
So now I just split my time between gate camping and mission spamming on an alt. |

FW would be great, but it isn't worth the downsides and isn't worth it in a reward sense.
I'd love to suggest that you guys institute eve arenas, 2v2, 3v3, 5v5 with real ships, real pilots, no podding (or concord) in a controlled environment. Purely Gladiator style of the future.

Always meant to try invention, never got around to it.
Keep meaning to get scan probes out and go 'explore' yet never really do.
I do want interact more with the RP/FW conflict, but its mechanics are restrictive and unsatisfying (particularly as I am in an alliance) so I have never spent long in the area. I want the RP aspect, I don't want the current mechanics. http://uglebsjournal.wordpress.com/ |
